Agility-based professionals, including archers, would not equip magic armor under normal circumstances.
To them, who relied on stealth and camouflage for a living, heavy and slow peripherals would not only slow them down, but also expose their whereabouts and obstruct their senses.
What if they needed support from equipment? They could just bring whatever they needed. With the carrying capacity of high-grade professionals, it was not impossible for them to bring a siege crossbow alone.
Carrying a huge sniper weapon in an ambush would be even more difficult to guard against.
Only one archer-type profession would choose to pilot a magic armor — a long-range sniper heavy artillery shooter.
The unusually large power backpack and body on his back stored half the magic reserve of a wizard tower. Connected to the backpack was a "deformed" right cannon barrel that was almost as tall as his body.
His relatively short and thick legs supported his upper body steadily, while his equally short and thick left arm was equipped with a huge tower shield.
When he entered sniper mode, his legs were directly locked to the ground, and the frame extended from the backpack to form a cannon frame. The tower shield supported the front of the cannon barrel. It was an immovable heavy artillery fortress.
"Oh my, it's purely handmade. Looks like every part of it is of high quality. The price is not cheap. But I recognize that cannon. It's the Death Singer's negative energy sniper cannon, used by the Xiluo army. It has special effects against living beings. 120,000 neutral God Tributes.
The heavy artillery was definitely an eye-catching work of art. On the cannon barrel, there was a relief of a banshee, and around it were inlaid bone beads and luminous pearls. There was a faint flow of magic power within.
The reason why Roxia knew so much about this type of heavy cannon magic armor was that during the most despicable incident involving the destruction of money, a certain ranger whose moral integrity had been shattered for the first time had desperately tried to introduce this type of heavy cannon magic armor to Roxia. Roxia had even requested that Roxia obtain it.
As for the result … Cough cough, everyone knew that pay-to-win would not bring smiles.
Rorschach was still in the mood to sigh instead of confessing before his death …
This was because after Jack framed him, the magic armor, which had turned into a sniper cannon form from the moment it landed, fired directly!
"Ahhhhhh!"
The screams came from the cannon barrel. The spirits of the three banshees materialized at the cannon barrel and came to life around it. The screams that were filled with negative energy could kill the weak and small animals.
The next moment, a pitch-black spherical energy source gathered at the cannon barrel. Silver lightning flowed on it, and then … it exploded!
A black torrent swept across the deck, directly drowning the descender of the silver elf and another defensive magic armor.
That's right, I wasn't mistaken. The target of that attack wasn't Rorschach, but rather that high-level professional who looked like a Thunder God descending to the mortal world.
The black torrent swallowed everything, and the witnesses became blind. It was unknown if anyone who came into contact with it was dead or alive, or if they were living a life worse than death.
Before they were subjected to the Instant Death, Aging Curse, and Negative Energy Corrosion, they had to think of a way to survive the baptism of this massive Negative Energy Storm.
Large amounts of steam seeped out of the joint of the sniper magic armor. Just one shot was enough to overload this magic armor, which had almost the same amount of energy as a mage tower.
The next moment, when the sniper cannon aimed at the next target, Jack, it discovered that he had already vanished without a trace. There was only a black dot on the horizon. Winged birdmen truly ran fast.
"He ran so fast … I think that the shot just now was actually a cover for him."
Perhaps Jack had already known what was about to happen from the moment he framed the silver elf.
The cockpit of the sniper magic armor opened, and a familiar figure peeked out.
"Why aren't you leaving yet? Do you intend to die together with this ship?"
Although Su Nanna said this, she was unable to conceal the joy on her face. That shot just now had probably fulfilled her dream.
As she spoke, the black heavy cannon of the sniper magic armor kept shooting left and right, as if it wanted to shoot again.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, the battle between the Evil Gods who had nowhere else to retreat to and the descenders who were about to lose their escape route was becoming more and more intense. At this moment, it was impossible for anyone to retreat.
After calculating the time it would take for the next heavy cannon to reload, as well as the descenders who were eyeing them from the sky, Su Nanna helplessly gave up on the idea of stealing the enemy's kill.
"That pilot still hasn't shown up. I almost gave up. Hmph, that guy actually came late after going to the bathroom. He has no discipline at all. Still, it's convenient for me to be alone. Yep, persistence always pays off. "
Persistence? That seemed to be the right phrase to use here.
Rorschach fell into deep thought as he looked at the proud Su Nanna.
It would seem that she had unhesitatingly chosen this magic armor equipped with her dream cannon back in the hangar. After successfully capturing the pilot and kidnapping him, she had even snuck into the silver elves' ranks.
"Rorschach, Nana, come up here."
At this moment, a small airship floated up. As expected, Adeline's voice came from the loudspeaker.
Heavy magic armors typically didn't have the ability to fly long distances. Without an airship, they wouldn't be able to travel far. From the very start, the two of them had a clear division of labor.
One of them stole people … stole magic armors, while the other stole cars … stole airships. Now that they had the goods, and the airship was about to explode, why weren't they running?
Rorschach really wanted to ask how many times they had stolen magic armors since they were so skilled at it!
"Caw!"
A strange bird's cry rang out in midair. A golden roc suddenly descended and grabbed the sniper type magic armor, helping the overloaded heavy magic armor float onto the airship.
"… A great harvest! Remember to not forget about my share. "
"Money Addict, I won't forget about you."
Right after Rorschach jumped onto the airship, the airship swiftly floated away.
More silver elf descenders had already noticed them. If they didn't leave now, it would truly be too late.
The constantly smoking Homeland battleship finally attracted the attention of the descenders. The pursuers chose to chase after the more important mothership, and when Roxia's speedboat entered the depths of the demonic mist, they were naturally safe.
“boom!”
Even the magic mist couldn't stop the terrible sound from spreading. The mist was forcefully expelled by the shockwave of the explosion. The Elemental Tide was stirred into a frenzy, and the airship in the storm swayed wildly.
Rorschach had to desperately grab onto the ropes on the deck so that he wouldn't be thrown off by the sudden whirlpool.
When everything returned to normal, it was already dozens of seconds later.
After everything calmed down, the Descenders of the God of Games happily exchanged their gains with each other.
Su Nanna hijacked a sniper type magic armor. That was a high-end item that the Church couldn't afford at the moment. Adeline hijacked a ship. Even if it was a small ship with a low load capacity, the parts on it could greatly increase the Game Church's chances of building ships. However, it seemed that only the most unlucky Rorschach not only ran into a strong enemy, but also gained nothing.
"… Maybe it's not all for nothing."
Rorschach looked at the ground. There was an elf he had just met who was running away. The huge backpack on her back that was much bigger than her was too eye-catching.
"You really didn't die … Master Adeline, come down. I saw a 'treasure gnome' running away. It might drop an epic item."
