n“It’s the Captain!” Black Panther called out into the group channel. His intent was clear.

n“The Heavy Armor Warrior is also an Elite,” Feng Luo replied. “I’m guessing it won’t be easy to break through his shield!”

n“I have a grade-C energy armor-piercing round,” Black Panther muttered. “It’ll break down any armor grade-C or below by 100 percent. Even if his shield is extra thick, two or three more bullets will do the job!”

nFeng Luo was speechless. He had to admit, you really could do whatever you wanted if you were rich.

nAs an Expert in ammunition, he naturally knew about the energy armor-piercing rounds. Besides having extremely high damage, this type of ammunition also increased attack by 20 percent with the addition of 100 points of non-attribute energy damage. It was safe to say that this bullet was one of the best among grade-C ammunition.

nThis item wasn’t available for purchase in shops, and there weren’t any players who manufactured it. The only way to obtain it was by collecting relics left from the Great Destruction or completing certain missions. In an auction not long ago, 300 rounds of energy armor-piercing rounds had been sold at a high price of 150,000 credits—an average of 500 credits per round.

nIt spoke volumes that Black Panther was willing to use such a precious bullet against a small opponent. This was more than the usual act of extravagance. No wonder he was able to break the bulletproof windows of the sea vessel with just two shots.

n“All right!” Feng Luo agreed. It wasn’t his bullet or money, anyway.

n“I’ll attack, then!” Black Panther said as he pulled the trigger which was aimed towards Scarface’s shield.

nFeng Luo watched it all happen through his scope. A blue light flashed, and a dent the size of a washbasin appeared on the black alloy shield that covering their guns, and it quivered heavily from the impact.

nPow!

n−402

nDue to the impact force caused by the bullet against the shield, a damage value of more than 400 appeared above Scarface’s head. (Note: Shields didn’t completely block all damage. They just greatly reduced damage!)

nBefore Scarface could even react, Black Panther had fired another shot within milliseconds. Clearly, he had activated “Rapid Shooting” mode, allowing the sniper rifle to attack at a much faster rate.

nThe second bullet struck the left side of the shield, slightly off from the first one, but it still had the same effect. The two bullets had managed to deform a shield that otherwise seemed to be indestructible.

nPow!

nA flash of blue light. Black Panther fired a third bullet right into the center of the shield. This time, it made a fist-sized hole in the dented shield. The bullet pierced right through the shield and sheared off more than 1,000 HP from the pirates’ third in command.

nPow!

nFeng Luo also started to shoot. The situation required him to activate Rapid Shooting mode as well. The M110 repeatedly fired armor-piercing rounds within milliseconds.

n−1034

nThe alloy shield, which had been heavily damaged by the energy armor-piercing rounds, had a much lower defense now. Feng Luo’s bullet managed to pierce through it, causing another set of damage to Scarface.

nWith Black Panther and Feng Luo both having activated Rapid Shooting mode, in addition to the usage of special bullets, even a Level-45 Elite Heavy Armor Warrior like Scarface couldn’t take it any longer. Immediately, he raised his shield to cover the Captain and retreated to the back of the ship. But under Feng Luo’s and Black Panther’s speedy attacks, the Heavy Armor Warrior with more than 9,000 HP could only hold on for at most five or six more seconds.

nFive or six seconds was enough for him to reach the door of the cabin. Black Panther fired another energy armor-piercing round to knock off all Scarface’s remaining HP.

nPirate Third in Command “Scarface” (Level 45 Elite) killed. Contribution: 27%. 270 experience points awarded.

nThe system notification only displayed rewards to experience points. It made no mention of credits or medal points. Obviously, that was because Black Panther had been the last one to shoot Scarface. The system had decided that he would be the one to complete the bounty mission.

nHowever, although Scarface the Heavy Armor Warrior had fallen, the Captain, One-Eyed Dragon, was only a few steps from the cabin. This short distance would only allow for one shot per person.

nA single shot per person to take down a Captain with about 5,000 HP—the chances of success obviously weren’t high.

nWe’re bound to make mistakes! Feng Luo sighed in his heart.

nEarlier, the two of them had both missed a shot, which had bought Scarface a second. And now, they were only left with a chance for two shots. The probability of instantly killing this Elite creature, One-Eyed Dragon, with 5000 HP, was slim. But even if there wasn’t much hope, they had to give it a try!

nPow!

nOnce again, Feng Luo pulled the trigger on the M110. He felt the gun tremble slightly as if the bullet he had just fired was different from the ones before.

nIf it viewed from God’s perspective, Feng Luo saw his double armor-piercing round flying toward the Captain. It was shrouded in a layer of flickering blue and white energy just like lightning.

nPow!

nThe Captain was preparing to rush into the cabin when the bullet struck him. His running body seemed to lose control. He stopped dead in his tracks, staggered, and fell.

nYour attack has triggered the “Electrified” effect. 1,000 points of electricity energy damage and special effect “Electric Shock” to Captain (Level 49 Elite).

nFeng Luo was slightly stupefied when he saw the system notification. He had almost forgotten that the M110 was equipped with two parts from the Eye of the Thunder, which came with the incomplete yet rare attribute of a 2 percent chance of an electrifying effect. A chance of one in 50 was quite low; out of the many shots Feng Luo had fired, none of them had ever triggered this effect, which was why he had selectively ignored this special attribute of his gun.

nWho would have thought that, at the most crucial moment, it would trigger against the most suitable opponent!

nThe Captain was in an electrocuted state. He couldn’t move, as his body was numbed in convulsions. The consequence of this situation was undoubtedly a lethal one!

nPow!

nBlue light flashed as Black Panther shot again. The grade-C energy armor-piercing round with strong destructive power pierced through the Captain’s battle uniform, creating yellow weak-point damage.

nHowever, worthy of a Level-49 Elite creature, even after losing 4,500 HP in succession, he was still alive. In fact, a pirate carrying a medicinal kit quickly threw a blood pack toward the Captain.

nBut it was too late. Under the Rapid Shooting mode, Feng Luo fired the next shot within milliseconds.

nPow!

n−456

nA white damage value of not even 500 was enough to take away the last of the Captain’s HP.

nCaptain “One-Eyed Dragon” (Level 49 Elite) killed. Contribution: 55%. Experience points gained: 1,100. D-rank Wanted Federal Criminal killed. 10,000 credits, 4 medal points awarded. Please proceed to the Bounty Association for credit collection.

nJust like that, all three leaders of the pirates had been terminated!

nHowever, the pirate ship and the ferry ship were now only about 600 meters apart, which meant they had entered the shooting range of the electromagnetic railgun.

nAll the members of the pirate crew that had been hiding before were now ready for action. They peeked out from every corner. In fact, one had already climbed quietly onto the 40mm three-barreled autocannon.
