What the fuck! Who could defeat such a powerful Mo Family?
It could be said that the other 3 squadrons in the quarterfinals were more or less the same. However, they were still a level lower than the Heaven's Fate squadron. One really shouldn't compete with the Heaven's Fate squadron in terms of talent, as their talent was too strong. Instead of comparing talent, they had started to compare effort.
Cheers rang out across the entire stadium. At this moment, the Heaven's Fate squadron had already occupied 80% of the support ratings. They were truly too powerful, while Mo Wen was just like a mountain suppressing them. How was Carolyn doing now?
She needed to secure the 3rd duel without any mistakes!
Rennes Stuart had already stood up. This could be said to be Stuart's safest option.
Before Carolyn took action, Mo Wen wouldn't be able to step down from the stage due to his status or his goal to suppress the crowd. Of the 2 remaining members of the Heaven's Fate squadron, the one that posed the greatest threat was Mo Ling. However, before the start of the match, Stuart had already made various kinds of analyses and strategies to deal with Mo Ling. Being a half heavy soldier and half soldier, his combat techniques, habits and characteristics were all countered by Rennes. Furthermore, Rennes's Air attribute special ability was able to absolutely restrict the display of his 4 spirits …
Therefore, Stuart, with 4 Mo's List rankers, still held an advantage in this duel. Carolyn truly didn't believe that the other members of the Mo Family would have the same combat strength as their mainstay. However, Carolyn's eyes suddenly narrowed.
The person walking out from the Heaven's Fate battleground wasn't Mo Wen or Mo Ling, but … Mo Shang!
Frankly speaking, Mo Shang basically didn't have much of a presence in the earlier stages of the CHF. In fact, many of the audience were unfamiliar with his name. However, it was undeniable that Mo Shang's strength was … truly ordinary, especially when compared to Rennes. His Air and Fire attribute special ability and combat techniques were even more frightening. Furthermore, he was the captain of the Stuart squadron that had won the championship in the past, and was one of the 5 great Mo's List ranged soldiers. However, he had instantly become a lowly existence. Naturally, this should be the Heaven's Fate squadron's arrangement. After all, this was Stuart, and it was impossible to completely counter them.
If they didn't choose to send Mo Ling up, it might be due to his style being too familiar to them. At the same time, there was a certain class that could counter him. However, how could a mere Mo Shang deal with Rennes?
The voices of the surrounding audience instantly couldn't be suppressed. Heaven's Fate's style was simply too similar to Tianjing's, as both of them didn't like to play by the rules.
"Tsk, tsk. Why do you have to guess the opposite? You can't guess it! Their style is quite similar to your Tianjing. "Noriba's words flowed in a rather smooth manner." That's right. They're Heaven's Fate, while you're Tianjing. There's only a difference of one word. "
"What are you talking about? Looks like you're planning to conserve your strength for the group battle." replied Ma Dong with a smile. "Heaven's Fate is truly slightly frightening."
The shock brought about by a Shadow Dancer was too great.
However, Wang Zhong and Vladimir did not have any intention of chatting or laughing. They simply looked at the arena. The buzzing sounds in the arena did not stop, and both sides were already in position.
Rennes always had his gun holstered at his waist, while his stance appeared rather casual. Compared to Mo Shang, he appeared to be much more well-behaved. Two runic pistols had already been drawn in his hands, while his eyes stared unblinkingly at his opponent, ready for battle.
A … somewhat reserved fellow.
A frown appeared on Rennes's forehead. It wasn't because he felt that his opponent's restraint would make him appear weak. Instead, it was because this opponent of his gave him a strange feeling. However, he was unable to pinpoint exactly what was strange about him.
The Stuart Family's information network could be considered to be rather precise. However, it was still somewhat lacking if they wanted to investigate the background of the Mo Family. Within the Federation, there was no one that could compare to the Mo Family in terms of information gathering and counter-information gathering. This was what they relied on to make a living. Wasn't there a saying that said, "Don't use your interests to challenge other people's specializations?"
The information that Stuart Family had obtained regarding Mo Shang was extremely limited. In fact, this fellow wasn't even a ranged soldier that represented the Mo Family in the elimination rounds. From his name, he should be an inner disciple of the Mo Family. However, there was someone from the Mo Family who played with guns? Rennes felt that it was slightly hard to imagine.
Turning his body slightly to the side, he showed respect to this freshman ranged soldier. Placing his left hand slightly at his waist, despite not pulling out his gun, the smell of gunpowder had already pervaded the air.
Match start!
Bang Bang Bang Bang!
The first to take action was Mo Shang. Without mentioning his technique, his Soul Power was rather abundant.
Tongues of flame danced on the muzzle of the runic pistol, as Soul Power bullets shot out in a continuous stream, brimming with explosive power.
Frankly speaking, it was a competition of awareness, positioning, mental state and wretchedness against a ranged soldier.
Even in such a spacious and empty arena without any cover, it wasn't too difficult for Mo Shang to evade the bullets from a runic pistol with his level of strength and the eyesight of a top-notch ranged soldier. If he wanted to truly knock down his opponent at this level, just relying on the speed and explosive power of his bullets was definitely not enough. What was more important was his positioning, as well as the speed and accuracy of his consecutive shots.
The few shots that Mo Shang had fired at the start of the match could be considered to be above average. Amongst ranged soldiers, they could be considered to be outstanding. However, there was still a large gap between him and a top-notch ranged soldier.
However, the trajectories of his bullets weren't sufficiently accurate. Without talking about looking, Rennes was able to hear the blind spots and loopholes within the barrage of bullets fired by his ears.
The answer was extremely simple.
Rennes's figure had seemingly started to sway at the same instant his opponent had opened fire. His extremely accurate judgement of Mo Shang's bullet trajectories caused Rennes's evasive maneuvers to appear rather calm and unruffled.
Amidst his graceful and relaxed movements, Rennes's counter attack followed.
His action of pulling out his gun from his waist appeared slightly similar to Alasi's. Perhaps he wasn't as fast as Mo Shang, however, he was more graceful than Mo Shang. While his body was still in the air, the muzzle of his gun had already pierced out from his armpit, before unleashing a barrage of bullets. Those bullets formed a dazzling trajectory that instantly locked down Mo Shang!
"Formidable!" Alasi could not help but sigh in admiration. Being one of the 5 great Mo's List ranged soldiers, there weren't many people who were more knowledgeable about firearms than him.
The shotgun Thor No. 1 originally didn't have any trajectory to speak of, and was famed for its concentrated and irregular firepower. But in Rayne's hands, even if the bullet trajectories were supposed to be irregular, he was able to play with them to a new height. When he turned over and moved at high speed, the bullets that were thrown out had a spiral parabola. The originally irregular bullet screen was locked down by him, and he had complete control over it.
Seated not far away from him, Gaden narrowed his beady eyes. He wasn't the slightest bit interested in the outcome between Stuart and Heaven's Fate. The only thing that truly interested him was the genuine strength of the former super FMVP of this CHF, Rennes. Indeed, his opponent did not disappoint him, as his attacks were out of the ordinary!
In the face of the barrage of bullets fired by Rennes, Mo Shang's small firepower was akin to the difference between a 3 year old child and a giant man, instantly engulfed by the barrage.
In what seemed like an instant, those who had attacked had turned to defence, while those who had evaded had turned to offence. With the reversal of offence and defence, Mo Shang no longer had the opportunity to pull his gun. Instead, he frantically retreated and evaded Rennes's barrage of bullets.
Everyone had assumed that Mo Shang, who had been sent up as the starter, would at least be a quasi-Mo's List expert. However, in the first exchange, everyone was able to see how powerless he was.
With their first exchange having reached such a stage, the word "suppression" was no longer sufficient to describe the disparity between the 2. It would still be fine if the disparity between the 2 were of the same occupation. However, once the disparity was too great, it would immediately result in an absolute suppression. Mo Wen's performance in this duel was truly a little overdone.
His perfect judgement and bullet trajectories instantly won the berserk cheers from the Stuart fans. After suffering 2 consecutive blows from their opponents, all of the Stuart fans were feeling extremely stifled.
One could imagine that Stuart would have the initiative if they were to win this duel. If their opponent sent up Mo Wen, Carolyn could completely give up on this duel for the sake of safety, before subduing her opponent in the 5th duel and entering the group battle phase. However, if their opponent sent up Mo Ling, there was no doubt that Carolyn would be able to go up directly. Despite Mo Ling having left an exceedingly deep impression on people when he defeated Divian, Carolyn, being one of the 4 Heavenly Kings, was clearly stronger than Divian in the hearts of everyone in the Federation.
In fact, Mo Wen was slightly too stable. If Mo Ling was allowed to go all out, there might not be even a sliver of hope.
"At this crucial moment, we still need to rely on the old general to hold the fort!"
"That Mo Shang's movements are rather nimble, and his speed isn't bad either. He's actually able to evade all of that."
"Rennes is only blocking him, and has yet to take his life. Yet, he's already in such a miserable state. I'm afraid that he'll only be able to drag this out for 1 or 2 minutes."
Even such an evaluation was considered an overestimation.
Bang Bang Bang …
Just as the heated discussions within the audience rang out, with not even a minute or 2 had passed, Mo Shang had already been hit by a bullet. Faced against a genuine ranged soldier combination attack, this half-baked soldier was immediately beaten back to his original form. If it was that easy to evade, the ranged soldier occupation would have long been extinct.
Chest, abdomen, heart, and even head! The scattered bullets brought with them an extremely powerful penetrative power, piercing through all four directions at the same time!
