What surprised Feng Luo was the speed the Cave Spider Queen was displaying at that moment.

Earlier when the Cave Spider Queen was channeling its Ultimate skill after becoming enraged due to its energy shield being destroyed by the Spray Beetles, it was moving very quickly between the rock walls.

It was so quick that even Feng Luo was not confident that he would be able to disrupt and cancel its casting while it was moving. He could only wait until the Cave Spider Queen stopped moving before he could take the chance and shoot.

Feng Luo thought that this was the maximum speed of the Cave Spider Queen. Now, he knew that the maximum speed of the Cave Spider Queen was actually double that earlier speed it displayed.

Even with Feng Luo’s enhanced vision, he was not able to clearly see the Cave Spider Queen’s body when it was moving at high-speed.

Feng Luo is a Sniper who had his vision enhanced by the Evolution Virus, as well as one who had the combined vision bonus of two Rare Grade items – the Legend of Black Gold ring and the Special Agent Badge. When it came to vision, apart from players who had relevant talents, Feng Luo was undoubtedly one of the best in the game.

Even when that was the case, he was still not able to clearly see the Cave Spider Queen when it was moving.

“It’s moving faster than 120 meters per second.” Although Feng Luo could not see it clearly, the Sniping scope of Wings of Death still managed to display the data it had detected quickly.

The Cave Spider Queen was initially over 700 meters away from Feng Luo’s position. If calculated according to the trajectory of the spider, which was along the cliff wall, the actual distance between them was actually doubled.

Over 1,000 meters in distance meant that Feng Luo had around 11 seconds.

Since normal Cave Spiders had the ability to engage in melee combat, the Quasi-Boss Cave Spider Queen, although it was an energy type monster, was bound to have not-so-weak melee combat abilities.

This meant that Feng Luo had to get rid of it within this distance. At the very least, he had to reduce its HP to less than 15% to put it into the “Weakened” status.

“Automatic mode!”

“Rapid Shooting!”

“B-Grade Double Armor-piercing Rounds!”

As Feng Luo’s mind raced to think up a solution, his hands holding Wings of Death never ceased moving even as he was thinking.

“Bang!”

The first Double Armor-piercing Round flew out of Wings of Death’s muzzle before the Cave Spider Queen managed to charge past the first 100-meter mark.

“Pa!”

The sniper bullet that had an incredible 1,500 meters per second starting speed due to the energy accelerator that covered 600 meters in just 0.2 seconds created sparks on the boulder wall, the first shot missed.

The Cave Spider Queen’s movement speed was too fast. Though it was a mere 0.2 seconds, it had already moved over 20 meters.

Although the ten-meter large body of the Cave Spider Queen looked like it was an easy target to hit, the large size of a spider was mostly slim and slender limbs. As for the actual body, it was even less than two meters large, which meant that the size of Feng Luo’s target was actually only as big as a Light Armor Warrior.

From 600 to 700 meters, a Light Armor Warrior who was moving unevenly at around a hundred meters per second, even the best snipers would not dare to claim a 100% hit rate.

“Straight line distance – 612 meters. I only have around 15 shots left.” Feng Luo took a deep breath. His face became extremely focused while Wings of Death’s muzzle changed angles quickly in his hands.

The Cave Spider Queen’s movement speed was too high. This not only made it very difficult to get a shot in, but it also meant that it would exit the sniping scope’s vision within a few tenths of a second.

It was a good thing the Sniping Scope of Death Gaze had a 40% vision bonus, so the situation was not that severe.

“Bang!”

Before a second elapsed, Feng Luo fired a second shot.

The Rapid Shooting skill that was nearing the Expert Level reduced the shooting gap by at least one-third.

Even if he were to fire at the exact time the shot cooldown elapsed, the Cave Spider Queen would have reduced the distance between them by one-fifteenth in the short shot gap.

He only had 15 shots at most.

“-5866!”

The second shot did not miss. Although it struck the lower portion of the Cave Spider Queen’s abdomen and only dealt a Weak Point Damage, the shot’s damage was quite decent, inflicting nearly 6,000 damage points on the Quasi-Boss monster’s body, which was around 3% of the Cave Spider Queen’s total HP.

“Remaining HP: 120,670, around 67% left.” The sniping scope’s ability to accurately measure HP showed Feng Luo the damage percentage of the shot.

A shot that took out 3% of the monster’s HP. In theory, he would need over 20 shots to deplete the remaining HP.

However, this was only a Weak Point damage, if he were to inflict a Fatal Damage, as long as he did not miss any of the remaining 13 shots, he should be able to settle the issue.

Even if he missed some of them, as long as a few of the shots were critical hits, he would still have a chance.

To take care of a Quasi-Boss with roughly a dozen shots, from this alone, it seemed like killing a Quasi-Boss was not all that hard.

However, Boss Grade monsters were not scary due to high HP, there were also their powerful skills and amazing recovery abilities.

The energy shield of the Cave Spider Queen was destroyed earlier thanks to four rounds of poison attacks from over 200 Spray Beetles. If the damage of these Spray Beetles were converted into HP, its total HP might have exceeded 400,000.

Not to mention many Boss Grade monsters also had incredible recovery abilities.

A Quasi-Boss monster with 200,000 HP, in a prolonged battle, may recover an amount of HP that was several times more than its actual HP.

Some Boss monsters, on the brink of death, would even activate shields to protect themselves and recover their HP to a near-full condition.

Killing a Quasi-Boss monster was never going to be an easy task.

“Squeak, squeak…” As Feng Luo fired shots, 24K, who was among the Energy Beetles, began to cry out anxiously.

“Splurt, splurt…”

On the ground, all of the 200 plus Spray Beetles under 24K’s control were still shooting poison liquid at the Cave Spider Queen moving at high-speed vertically on the wall towards Feng Luo.

However, due to the insane movement speed of the Cave Spider Queen, although the Spray Beetles were usually quite accurate, by the time their attack reached the wall, the Cave Spider Queen would have already disappeared. Hundreds of shots of poison liquid splattered on the boulder wall and, at most, killed several normal Cave Spiders that did not dodge in time.

“Scatter around, predict the movement trajectory before shooting.” While Feng Luo was tensely firing shots, when he saw the situation with 24K; he split his attention and sent a message to 24K through the mental link. Whether 24K’s AI was capable of understanding, adapting, and executing commands according to his advice, it was something that he did not have the time nor the cognitive capacity to attend to.

At that moment, the Cave Spider Queen had further shortened the distance between them. It was now less than 550 meters from Feng Luo.

“Bang!”

“-6377!”

The third shot hit the abdomen again. A 6,000 plus Weak Point damage. Remaining HP: 65%.

“Bang!”

The fourth shot brushed past the edge of the Cave Spider Queen’s abdomen and missed.

“Bang!”

“-12345!”

The fifth shot hit, and this time, the Double Armor-piercing Round struck in between the Cave Spider Queen’s abdomen and chest area from a slanted angle. The damage caused by this shot was a clear and obvious red.

Over 10,000 Fatal Damage. The shot took out 6% of the Cave Spider Queen’s total HP.

However, after five shots, the Cave Spider Queen’s HP was still at 60%.

While the shots were being fired, the Cave Spider Queen had automatically recovered around 5,000 HP.

“Squeak, squeak…” 24K was anxiously making sounds in the sky as it commanded its subordinates to change and adjust their attacking patterns.

…

“Bang!”

“-6045!”

The eighth shot was yet another Weak Point Damage. Remaining HP: 52%.

The Cave Spider Queen was already less than 300 meters away from Feng Luo. The eighth shot meant that Feng Luo had already fired around half of the shots that he was theoretically allowed to fire safely, however, the Quasi-Boss’ HP was still above 50%.

A total of eight shots had been fired but the Cave Spider Queen had only lost 18% of its HP.

Feng Luo was not sure if the earlier critical hit he achieved on the first shot was lucky or unlucky.

Apart from the two missed shots, the remaining six shots that hit the Cave Spider Queen did were not critical attacks at all. If this were to continue, it would no longer be possible for Feng Luo to put the Cave Spider Queen into the “Weakened” status before it reached him.

It was a Quasi-Boss Grade monster, it was not something players at the current stage were able to do alone.

“Bang!”

Feng Luo’s mind raced as he contemplated melee combat measures, and as his mind continued to race, the ninth shot exited the muzzle of the Wings of Death sniper rifle.

“Bang!”

This time, he missed again. However, Feng Luo did not seem disappointed at this miss. Instead, he looked oddly delighted because of the reason he missed.

After getting within 300 meters of Feng Luo, the Cave Spider Queen’s speed decreased in an instant, and as such, his shot also missed its target.

The Cave Spider Queen let out an angry and high-pitched shriek, as many of its scars that had coagulated due to its recovery speed were once again corroded by green poison liquid.

It was certainly moving very fast, to the extent where the Spray Beetles’ poison liquid which was a lot slower than gun bullets could not get close to hitting it. However, if the poison liquid were aimed at locations that were in front of it, the situation would be completely different. Moreover, the attacks of all 200 of the Spray Beetles were scattered, covering a 20-meter range.

No matter how quick it was, it was inevitable that it would get hit by at least 10 or 20 shots.

As for the poison liquid of the Spray Beetles, apart from the corrosive effect, it also had a percentage-based speed reduction negative buff. Although, due to the huge negative buff resistance of the Quasi-Boss Grade Cave Spider Queen, the speed reduction effect could only last for around two to three seconds, it was more than enough.

After all, as long as its speed was reduced, the poison liquid would be able to keep up more easily.

At that time, 24K’s high AI showed its potency. Although Feng Luo had used similar tactics with the Spray Beetles when facing high-agility type monsters, Feng Luo was quite distracted when making commands back then. This time, 24K was controlling the beetle squad itself.

As the Spray Beetles tried to predict the Quasi-Boss’ movement before shooting, more than ten Bladed Beetles had used their amazing leaping ability to get through the blockade of the Cave Spiders and were now standing in the way of the Cave Spider Queen on the boulder wall.

By the time the Cave Spider Queen charged at them at high-speed, the Bladed Beetles danced and swung their “Scythes” as they leaped towards the Cave Spider Queen.

Although 24K controlled the Spray Beetles, it was capable of controlling all the beetles within a range of 100 meters.

At that time, the Cave Spider Queen was already within the 100 meters range.

Naturally, 24K was not going to be nice to the bastard who had killed so many of his followers. So, it was going to use whatever was available.
