Xiao Yiqiu, who was still struggling, calmed down when he noticed the change in the situation. He gathered his strength secretly and prepared to break through when the sniper's strength was at its weakest.
The forest became quiet again. Only Xiao Yiqiu's heavy breathing could be heard. The skinny man knew that the sniper's endurance was very high. It would take a long time for the sniper to reveal his weakness. He didn't want to waste time here. If the fatty knew that he was blocked by a sniper behind a tree, he would definitely laugh at him. Thus, he decided to attack first.
Of course, the skinny man was so daring because he believed that with the defense of his domain, normal bullets wouldn't be able to break through his domain. The skinny man slowly walked out from behind the tree. He looked casual but his domain had already locked onto the direction of the attack. Once the attack came, it would be blocked by his domain.
However, his attention was focused on the direction of the sniper's attack. Naturally, he let go of the restraints on Xiao Yiqiu. Xiao Yiqiu, who had been waiting for a chance, felt the restraints on his metal rings weakening. He knew that the chance he had been waiting for was here. He released the strength that he had gathered and tried to break the metal rings on his body.
"Pa pa pa …" The sound of the metal rings breaking could be heard. Maybe Xiao Yiqiu released his strength too suddenly, he actually succeeded.
The skinny man was shocked. He looked at Xiao Yiqiu and wanted to form new metal rings to restrain him. However, a murderous aura came towards him.
"Pu!" The sniper who was hiding in the dark finally found a chance and shot his second shot.
When the bullet was half a meter away from the skinny man's head, it suddenly met with a strong resistance and was bounced away. Killing intent flashed past the skinny man's eyes. "I finally caught you." The skinny man's figure flashed and disappeared in front of Xiao Yiqiu.
Xiao Yiqiu, who had broken free from the bondage, instantly understood that this was the skinny man's plan to lure the snake out of its hole. He reckoned that his ability to break free from the other party's bondage was also part of the other party's plan. He was shocked and worried about the sniper who had shot him at the critical moment. He suddenly shouted, "Be careful!"
At this time, the skinny man had already reached the sniper's position according to his calculations. He saw a figure lying motionless on a huge tree branch. If he didn't already know that someone was hiding there, he might have been fooled by the other party.
The skinny man sneered and mercilessly swatted at the sniper.
"Pu!" He struck his opponent's back, instantly turning him into a pile of minced meat.
"That's not right!" The feeling of his hand told him that the person he had hit was already dead. He took a closer look, and it turned out to be the sniper they had arranged in this area … But the sniper he thought was there was no trace of him.
This was impossible! How could someone disappear without a trace under his surveillance? The skinny man's face was full of shock. Before he could figure it out, he felt a searing pain on his back. Then, he felt his body lose all strength and fell from the tree.
The skinny man used the last of his strength to turn his body towards the sky. He saw that at the place he had been standing, there was already a man in black standing there with a gun in his hand aimed at him. He couldn't see the other party's face clearly, but he could feel the other party's eyes looking down at him from above. It was cold to the bone …
Then, he saw the gun in the other party's hand blossom with a brilliant light, instantly engulfing him …
"So, he's using a beam sniper and not an ejector sniper rifle!" The skinny man actually thought of this at the last moment of his life.
After Xiao Yiqiu shouted the two words "be careful", he knew that this was the best time for him to escape. However, when he had escaped tens of meters away, he gritted his teeth and changed his direction. He carefully went in the direction that the skinny man had left.
It couldn't be helped. The Xiao family couldn't abandon their comrade, who was also their savior. Xiao Yiqiu knew that if he really ran away without caring about anything else, he would be crippled for the rest of his life. He would never have the chance to reach a higher level.
It should be said that the Xiao family's nature of being quick to repay kindness and revenge made it very easy for them to break their wings halfway before they had truly matured. This was also the reason why the Xiao family had so few members. However, it wasn't so easy to gain the Xiao family's recognition. The Xiao family members who were very clear about their own shortcomings wouldn't easily accept someone as a comrade that they would give their life to protect.
Xiao Yiqiu carefully walked for a while. There wasn't any sound in the surroundings. Without any hints, Xiao Yiqiu couldn't figure out where the skinny man's final destination was … Although he was worried about his savior, Xiao Yiqiu didn't lose his cool. Instead, his nose suddenly became a little bigger and he sniffed hard.
"The smell of blood, there's also a strange smell …" The Xiao family's bloodline ability wasn't just the famous Overlord Wave. Of course, compared to the Overlord Wave's power, some of the other abilities were just child's play.
Smelling the smell of blood, Xiao Yiqiu was greatly alarmed. Could it be that his savior had already been killed by the other party? But if that was the case, why didn't the skinny man come to capture him?
Xiao Yiqiu carried this trace of doubt and also anticipation in his heart. He carefully followed the direction of the smell of blood and sneaked over.
The smell of blood became thicker and thicker. When Xiao Yiqiu neared a certain tree, the smell of blood was so thick that he didn't need to use his bloodline ability to smell it clearly. He knew that he had reached his destination. He leaned against the tree and slowly stretched his head out to look in front of the tree.
"Drip!" Suddenly, a drop of water fell from the sky and landed on his face. Xiao Yiqiu casually wiped it away. Then, he suddenly reacted and raised his head. He saw that on the branch of the tree more than ten meters above him, there were two arms hanging down. Blood was dripping down the arms drop by drop. The drop of water that just landed on his face was the blood of that person.
Could it be that this person was his savior? Xiao Yiqiu flew up and landed on the branch. He saw a person wearing the same uniform as the skinny man. There was a large hole in his back. It seemed that he had been dead for quite some time. If not, with such a large hole in his back, there wouldn't be so little blood flowing out.
Xiao Yiqiu didn't know who killed the skinny man. He instinctively looked at the other side of the branch, which was the position he wanted to spy on. There was a corpse with only the lower half of its body under the tree on the other side. That pair of pants and shoes were so familiar that he would never forget it. It was the skinny domain realm master who had restrained him not long ago and made him helpless.
Xiao Yiqiu jumped down from the tree and carefully inspected the skinny man's corpse.
"The wound on the lower half of his body has traces of melting due to high temperature. It should be the result of a huge beam of energy directly hitting the upper half of his body." Xiao Yiqiu didn't understand. He really couldn't understand. The beam of energy of a beam gun was indeed powerful, but the skinny man was a domain realm expert. How could he be so easily killed by a beam gun?
The reason why there was a saying that those below Domain realm were all ants was not only because the strength of a Domain realm master and the strength of a Qi-Jin master were two completely different concepts, but also because only a Domain realm master would be able to withstand the advanced firearms developed by humans and even have the strength to fight against mechas. Those below the domain realm, even Qi-Jin masters had to avoid advanced firearms. The physical body of someone above the domain realm was still unable to withstand the power of advanced firearms, especially the destructive power of beam guns.
"The only possibility is that the skinny man destroyed the energy of his domain first. However, would a battle between domain realm masters be so silent?" Xiao Yiqiu found an answer but it was filled with another question.
"Or, did the Federation invent another beam gun that can directly destroy the energy of a domain realm?" Thinking about this, Xiao Yiqiu started to laugh at himself for thinking too much. This was because it was impossible. No matter how advanced the beam gun was, it couldn't be separated from the source of energy. However, a domain realm was able to seal all kinds of energy and create a world where one's words were the law.
Just as Xiao Yiqiu was mocking himself, he inadvertently saw the section of the corpse that was as smooth as a mirror. "No, this isn't the beam gun that the Federation has …" He touched it and felt a chill in his heart.
"It's actually a cold beam. No, it's a beam energy that is much colder than a normal cold beam … Even the remaining energy almost frostbitten my hand …" Xiao Yiqiu felt a wave of fear in his heart. He was a little annoyed at his impulsive actions. He actually put himself in danger. If it wasn't for the fact that the energy on the finger had mostly dissipated after a period of time, this finger that had accompanied him for 16 years might have already said goodbye to him.
However, because of this, he knew that the gun used by the skinny man was most likely a new type of beam gun invented by the Federation. He also knew that the person who killed the skinny man must be his savior.
An advanced cold beam gun. Was it a sniper? Xiao Yiqiu kept these two points firmly in his heart. One day, he would definitely find his savior and repay this debt of gratitude.
The fat man's speed was extremely fast. In less than 10 seconds, he had already caught up to Su Pei. And in this short period of time, Su Pei's potential was fully unleashed. In addition to Xiao Yiqiu's initial help, he had already reached the outskirts of the dense forest. If he had just a few more seconds, perhaps, he would be able to escape with his life.
Suddenly, his entire body seemed to be pulled by something. His originally high speed suddenly came to a halt. Su Pei's eyes, which had been calm all this while, flashed with a hint of despair at this moment. The few seconds that Xiao Yiqiu had created for him were still not enough for him to escape.
"I don't know what you guys are thinking. You happily transferred schools to participate in the assessment, but you ran away halfway …" The fat man appeared in front of Su Pei, still wearing that smiling face of the Maitreya Buddha.
"Because, we were all deceived by you guys!" Su Pei roared angrily. Finally, in his despair, he could no longer maintain his calm.
