Hearing the meaning behind Elvin's words, even though he already expected it, Anthony was still a bit disappointed.
"I knew it, his special ability isn't that easy to decipher. But if we can't even find his tracks, how are we supposed to kill him? "
Among them, the one with the greatest motivation to hunt a Man Killer Fiend would definitely be Anthony. Originally, the hotel under his name was visited by the "Poisonous Blue Bell Flower", causing the family's reputation to take a hit, even after sending out a large number of private soldiers, they still couldn't find anything.
But this young master of his managed to "lead" the hunt for the "White Faced Dancer" and the "Poisonous Blue Bell Flower" last night, it can be said that he's in the limelight. Even the Senator took the time out of his busy schedule to personally thank him, Anthony's position as the successor is becoming more and more stable.
After all, the Cramer family isn't the only one in power, and Anthony's siblings aren't the only one.
After resolving the family's trust crisis, a lot of family members have expressed their approval of this successor.
Anthony naturally wants to continue his efforts and expand his achievements.
But the current situation is making him very angry!
At first, the major factions were still exchanging information, all sorts of clues are being shared every day. But when there are only two Man Killer Fiends left, they all started to drag the others down, hiding the information, afraid that someone else will take the credit for it.
If the major factions could work together, maybe they wouldn't even need to wait until today, the 7 Man Killer Fiends aside from the "random host" that hasn't shown up yet would have all been eliminated.
How terrifying was a sniper that no one else could detect?
These people want to send out all of their own people, but also drag the others down, do they really think that the humans already have victory in their hands? How stupid!
"What if we change our approach and start from the victims?" Dilis who has been thinking with her head down suddenly thought of an idea.
"The Devil's Disciple relies on his sniper rifle to kill, as far as his line of sight is within his hunting range, as long as we can find the victims he's hunting, using the sniper rifle's effective range, we'll be able to deduce his approximate location. Then we'll kill him! "
"Oh, that's also a useful idea. Let me try again."
In fact, when Elvin was searching for the "devil's disciple" on the high-rise buildings, he was also looking for victims on the street. However, he didn't find anything.
But Elvin also got inspiration from Dilis's words, as long as the victim appears in the Man Killer Fiend's line of sight, they have a chance of being sniped, but a sniper's line of sight is different from a normal person's.
As a "sniper," Elvin knew very well that even if he hid in a room, he might not be able to stop a powerful sniper's attack. He might pass by the window unconsciously, creating an opportunity for him.
Moreover, this "sniper" was a Transcendent evil spirit. It was not surprising that he could do something even more unbelievable.
At this moment, the real-time images of New Ewen Harbor flashed through his mind.
The fully armed City Guard walked through the streets in groups of three, the Crowmen roamed the desolate outskirts of the city, the clergy and the Ironwall Knight formed a mixed team to investigate the residential area, and the Royal Naval College's "students" also divided their patrol areas. Elvin even saw Kelson Augustine, who was at odds with Crail.
The street was still quiet.
Shifting his gaze, Elvin focused more of his attention on the inside of the building. He didn't need to send the seabirds into the building to investigate. Even an evil spirit has its limits. As long as he imitated the sniper's line of sight, he would be able to see if there were any victims behind the window.
"Got it!"
As expected, after changing his train of thought, Elvin quickly found something.
Outside a three-story hotel in the business district on the south side of the city, Elvin saw a broken stained glass window. The warm yellow light from the gas lamp shone out from the broken window. It was a little conspicuous in the night.
Through the broken window, Elvin saw a middle-aged man lying dead on the ground. Perhaps the room was too well-sealed, his blood had started to coagulate without anyone noticing.
Soon, following this train of thought, Elvin found the second, third, and eleventh victims. Some of the victims were alone and uncared for, while others were surrounded by a group of people who were crying out for help.
Of course, Elvin also saw the little boy who was torn apart by the powerful kinetic energy of the bullet, and the young mother who was on the verge of going crazy.
Hearing and seeing were two completely different concepts, especially since humans were more likely to sympathize with the younger of their kind. The scene of despair was like a dagger stabbing into Elvin's heart.
"Creak … creak … creak …"
Elvin clenched his teeth so hard that they creaked, his blood rushed to his head. Right now, he no longer had any thoughts of contribution points in his mind, he only wanted to find this "Man Killer Fiend" and let him experience the taste of despair.
Marking the locations of all the victims on the map, connecting them with a line to form an irregular shape of a gear. Looking at the center of the gear, Elvin coldly said:
"Target found!"
.....
Ta … ta … ta …
The three figures quickly moved between the buildings, like ghosts, leaving only their backs to the passersby before disappearing again.
"Speaking of which, why didn't Elvin come with us? That guy is always so mysterious. "Anthony was a little suspicious of Elvin's arrangements before leaving.
"Just do our job well, Elvin is much more reliable than you." Dilis who was also running at the same speed rolled her eyes at him.
"Elvin must be looking for a place to cover us." Only Crail had a guess, and said confidently.
"Cover us?"
"Yeah, don't you guys know that Elvin is also a" Sniper "?"
Crail's question made Anthony and Dilis look at each other again.
"Hmm …?!!"
Elvin didn't mean to act alone.
However, he knew very well that in a battle without spells in the Transcendent level, the outstanding performance of the alchemical guns meant that only the snipers could resist the snipers!
Especially when the four of them were only level 2 Knights, and the magicians were at most at the level of wizard apprentices. If they had the strength of a Grand Knight, Elvin would definitely be the first to lead the charge.
Climbing up to the roof of a large casino, Elvin took out his alchemy gun "Thorny Golden Rose", and also used a horizontal shooting position, looking into the distance through the scope.
800 meters away was the Ancalia Grand Theater, which was suspected to be the location of the "Devil's Disciple". The three of them had already snuck up to a street away from the theater, using the blind spots of the buildings to hide themselves.
If they went any further, they would most likely be discovered by the sharp senses of the sniper.
"Phew —"
Elvin let out a sigh of relief, and whispered to the identity card of "Violet Eyes", "Hide, wait for my signal!"
"Understood."
The strategy had already been formulated, Anthony, Crail, and Dilis would be the spearhead, responsible for the surprise attack, and the most important thing was whether or not they could suppress this "Man Killer Fiend".
The unique ability of the "Devil's Disciple" was to weaken one's sense of presence, not to become invisible or incorporeal. Even if he couldn't be sensed, he would still be there.
The solution was not complicated, a large area attack would be enough to cover his hiding spot.
"Let the battle begin!"
Flap flap —
Extremely fast!
A formation of 5 white seagulls suddenly swooped down from the dark sky, 30 meters above the Ancalia Grand Theater, throwing down 5 red balls.
Even in sniping mode, the "Devil's Disciple" didn't lose the vigilance of a veteran, easily noticing the movements around him, and even avoided the "falling objects" from above.
But they weren't as simple as falling objects.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
After 5 consecutive explosions, a large orange flame accompanied by kerosene rose into the air, covering half of the theater's roof in the blink of an eye.
Being attacked directly, the interference effect on the "Devil's Disciple" was instantly broken. To reduce one's sense of presence, it's simply a skill to make others ignore you, sometimes it's even more effective than being invisible.
If you don't make any big movements, don't speak loudly, even if you reveal some clues, others will subconsciously ignore you. But even if you can deceive other people's senses, you can't deceive the world.
A cold-faced veteran wearing a tattered military uniform with an unkempt beard was instantly exposed to Elvin's gun.
There were even flames that he couldn't completely avoid burning at the bottom of his pants.
Without hesitation, Elvin pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Under the correction of the Data Vision, the wind speed, the influence of gravity, the distance, everything was under Elvin's control. He was confident that this shot wouldn't miss!
The specially made alchemy bullet carried Elvin's greeting and crossed the distance of 800 meters in less than a second.
The next moment, it was about to pierce through the "veteran's" chest.
Bang!
"Impossible!"
Elvin suddenly raised his head. At the critical moment, the veteran seemed to have unconsciously tilted his body slightly and actually dodged Elvin's fatal shot.
The pellet merely grazed his clothes and left a small cut!
After all, there were things in this world beyond the calculation ability of the Data Vision. Obviously, the combat intuition of a veteran veteran was one of them!
In fact, until the bullet left the muzzle, the veteran didn't realize that he had become someone's prey. But his powerful combat instinct made his body move faster than his mind. Like some kind of high-level reflex, he subconsciously dodged the attack by tilting his body.
This was also the difference between Elvin, a "fake" sniper, and a real sniper!
At the same time, Elvin also exposed himself when his shot didn't hit.
The veteran's counterattack came quickly and violently.
Bang!
The muzzle of the opponent's gun flashed faintly, and the bullet flew faster than the sound of the gunshot.
