Chapter 123: Unerring Aim

Page 1/3

Seeing that everyone was nearly ready, Rat Leader did not hesitate to give the order to fire. In an instant, the sound of gunfire echoed continuously. The moment the command was given, Lin Xiao aimed at his target. With just a single bullet, he successfully struck the eye of a level-four Frost Giant Wolf. At such a distance, and with the beast unprepared, failure would have meant all his previous practice was in vain. That level-four Frost Giant Wolf didn’t even have a chance to howl in pain before it perished instantly.

Others also demonstrated commendable marksmanship, with most bullets hitting the Frost Giant Wolves. Unfortunately, at a distance of five hundred meters, not everyone was as skilled as Lin Xiao. Many wolves were only lightly wounded, as the shots failed to hit vital points. This round of shooting resulted in five Frost Giant Wolves being killed.

The wolf pack likely hadn’t expected to be ambushed while resting. The death of their comrades stirred their ferocity, and with the gunfire revealing the position of the War Wolf Mercenary Group, the Frost Giant Wolves showed no intention of fleeing. One by one, they howled and lunged toward their attackers.

Three of the Frost Giant Wolves remained still, beginning to release their spirit techniques. From their mouths, an icy blue light flickered. The mercenaries, of course, would not sit idly by and quickly launched a second volley of shots.

Lin Xiao, unwilling to hold back, started firing at those wolves preparing to unleash their spirit techniques even before the others began. Each shot precisely hit the mouths of the Frost Giant Wolves readying their attacks. The three wolves were swiftly killed by Lin Xiao.

In a brief span, Lin Xiao had slain four Frost Giant Wolves. The others, focused on the immediate threat, paid little attention to him; after all, their task was to eliminate the pack before them. The three wolves who had been releasing spirit techniques were killed, and the others assumed it was their comrades’ doing, never suspecting Lin Xiao’s involvement.

But Ugly Bull was different. From the first volley, his gaze had been fixed on Lin Xiao. Assigned to protect him, he worried the young man might act rashly and charge forward. Therefore, Ugly Bull witnessed every successful shot Lin Xiao made.

“Hiss! That marksmanship is incredible! Simply terrifying!”

The Frost Giant Wolves were no longer completely unguarded. Although Rat Leader and the others fired another volley, the number of wolves killed was few.

This round of volley fire only took down three more Frost Giant Wolves. The level-five spirit beasts were much faster, and the remaining four were already closing in on the War Wolf Mercenary Group's position.

Despite the situation, Rat Leader remained calm. With their lineup, what could four level-five Frost Giant Wolves do to them? The wolves had approached too closely to continue using rifles.

“Defense and melee units, move up! Ranged units, wait for the right moment to strike!” RatI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
