South of Storm City, Withered Desert, coordinates (0346, -7178).
The scorching sun in the sky was scorching hot, shining on the Withered Desert's most drought-resistant Dead Leaf Snake Grass subconsciously curled up to prevent the precious water stored in its roots from being evaporated by the 50-degree high temperature.
From time to time, a light wind that was carried by the terrain would blow the fine sand into the air.
The vast desert was a sea of yellow and white, except for a large sand dune where four large black dots and six small black dots were running one after another.
A small team of players consisting of two warriors, two female Manipulators, a female Doctor, and a Sniper was sweating profusely, occasionally looking back as they ran up the sand dune.
However, the speed of the four large black shadows behind them was clearly faster than the Earth and Fire Manipulators and the Doctor, professions that did not have acceleration abilities. As such, the distance between the two sides was constantly decreasing.
"This won't do, we can't escape at all … These guys have eight legs, running in the desert is like fish in water, completely unrestricted."
The leading Heavy Armor Warrior stopped in his tracks, panting slightly as he spoke.
After that, his eyes showed determination as he spoke to the three female players and two male companions, whose faces had already turned pale and were panting heavily.
"I'll hold them off."
"You guys continue running. After we leave the battle, Watermelon, take out the Energy SUV and bring the three girls back to the supply point."
The Heavy Armor Warrior reached out to take out a shield from his backpack and stared fiercely at the area less than 100 meters behind them.
The four monsters were approaching at high speed. They were more than two meters tall, had a pair of huge mouths the size of washbasins, and were covered with body hair as thick as a pinky finger. They were Level-50 Elite Desert Tarantulas with eight limbs over three meters long.
"That's right, you guys hurry up and leave, Old Steel and I will hold them off."
The Light Armor Warrior in the team also stopped in his tracks, reaching out to take out an alloy sword from his backpack as he shouted at his companions, who also wanted to stop.
"No, if it wasn't for my sniping mistake, everyone would have completed the mission and retreated, and the four Desert Tarantulas wouldn't have caught up to us.
I'll stay and hold these Elite Desert Tarantulas with you guys. This way, Tangerine and the other two will have a higher chance of escaping. "
The other male player was a young-looking Sniper.
His face was filled with self-blame as he stopped in his tracks. He raised his sniper rifle with both hands and aimed it at the rapidly approaching Desert Tarantulas.
Bang!
He even immediately pulled the trigger of his sniper rifle. However, this hasty shot had no accuracy to speak of. The armor-piercing bullet flew right under a Desert Tarantula's fast-moving limbs and hit the sand, sending up a cloud of sand!
"You won't be of much use if you stay. A Sniper doesn't have much combat power against this kind of agility close-combat monster! And if we all die, we can't let the three girls walk out of the desert by themselves! "
The Heavy Armor Warrior had already raised his alloy shield and activated "Shield Charge" as he charged at the two Desert Tarantulas chasing him from afar, leaving a trail of sand behind him.
"Let's go!"
The Light Armor Warrior shouted and similarly activated Charge. With his alloy sword slung over his shoulder, he charged at the other two Desert Tarantulas!
"Old Steel, you deal with those two. I'll lure these two away!"
The Light Armor Warrior had already thought of a strategy. He knew that in a situation where there was no one to cooperate with him, it was impossible for him to deal with two Level-50 Desert Tarantulas, which were considered the top of the Elite Grade, at the same time with his own equipment!
"Thunder Leap Slash!"
As such, when he activated Charge and was about 15 meters away from a Desert Tarantula, he had already used the Light Armor Warrior's signature skill!
"Chi!"
The Light Armor Warrior raised his Level-48 Fine Alloy Sword high, reflecting the scorching sun above his head. After using the acceleration from the collision between the two spiders, he slashed at one of the Desert Tarantula's limbs that had just been raised!
"Pa!"
As an agility monster with high attack and damage, the defense of the Desert Tarantula's limbs was, of course, incomparable to monsters like the Desert Rock Lizard. As such, under the Thunder Leap Slash, which had the impact bonus (melee attacks also had speed bonuses), one of its limbs was directly chopped off!
Green blood oozed out of the severed limb and splashed onto the scalding ground. It even gave off a faint green smoke!
"Squeak!"
The Level-50 Elite Desert Tarantula let out an ear-piercing shriek. Due to its injury, it was enraged. Other than three of its remaining limbs, all of them slashed at the Light Armor Warrior!
"It's not that easy!"
However, the Light Armor Warrior shouted. His body actually rolled and tunneled under the Desert Tarantula's abdomen, more than half a meter above the ground!
Then, while the Charge skill was still active, he fiercely charged at the other Level-50 Elite Desert Tarantula that had already passed him and was chasing the three female players not far away!
"Devastating Slash!"
As he caught up to the Desert Tarantula, the Light Armor Warrior's alloy sword was already piercing directly at the "big sac" that the giant spider was dragging on its back!
“-2055！”
The alloy sword in his hand was only a Level-48 Fine piece of equipment. Its attack was indeed average, but the proficiency of the "Devastating Slash" skill had already reached the Expert level!
As such, with the skill effect bonus!
Even though the Desert Tarantula was a Level-50 Elite monster, the alloy sword directly cut a long gash on its back, and a weak point damage of 2,000 appeared above its head!
"Peng!"
Green blood sprayed all over the Light Armor Warrior, and the injured Desert Tarantula immediately became ferocious!
Its high-speed running body suddenly stepped on the sand and turned half a circle. Then, the two long legs on the side immediately slammed into the chest of the Light Armor Warrior, who could not dodge in time, and swept his entire body onto the sand!
“-1388！”
“-1356！”
Above the Light Armor Warrior's head, two damage coefficients appeared, and his HP had instantly dropped by two-fifths!
"Squeak!"
At that moment, the other Desert Tarantula whose leg had been cut off by the Light Armor Warrior had also chased from behind, waving its eight legs covered in long hair as thick as fingers, and stomping down on the Light Armor Warrior!
Two enraged high-attack Level-50 Elite monsters and a Light Armor Warrior who had lost almost half of his HP!
In such a situation, it was clear that he was already dead!
Unless …
"Ping!"
A 7.62mm armor-piercing bullet, which seemed to have traces of blue and white electricity wrapped around it and seemed to have an aura even hotter than the sun in the sky, shot out from behind a sand dune not far away!
The high-speed rotating armor-piercing bullet drilled into the Desert Tarantula's wound from the Light Armor Warrior's Penetrating Slash at an exact angle!
Then, it drilled out from the other side of the Desert Tarantula's body with a trail of green blood!
There were also two red damage coefficients!
“-5033！”
“-1256！”
Fatal Damage, a final blow!
The Desert Tarantula was a Level-50 Elite monster. Although its HP was not high and its defense was not too strong, it still had over 9,000 HP.
With at least two-thirds of its HP remaining, it was actually killed in one shot?
On the sand, the Light Armor Warrior, who wanted to buy more time for his companions, happened to see this scene!
His eyes widened!
Then, a thought appeared in his mind!
A Sniper, and a top-notch Sniper at that!
In War, only this profession could have such powerful single-target damage!
