The Machine Gunner and the Deputy Gunner understood their situation.
Facing a hidden sniper, their position was too dangerous. After all, the firepower point they were at was only temporarily built from the ruins, not a real bunker or fortification.
Without any communication, the Machine Gunner and the Deputy Gunner decided to do the same thing as the other Rebel Army soldiers: hide!
However, they were a little too slow!
Bang!
Another gunshot rang out. The Machine Gunner who had just raised his light machine gun was shot in the head. The machine gun fell to the ground, and the Deputy Gunner completely hid in the ruins.
Compared to his life, what was cowardice?
No one would blame the Deputy Gunner, even if they despised him in their hearts.
As for Captain Hank, he couldn't care less about his subordinate. The moment the gunshot rang out, he determined the general direction of the gunshot. Then, the assault rifle in his hand started to spit fire.
Bang! Bang!
Bang! The surrounding soldiers also joined in. Immediately, the rubble of the ruins was filled with bullets.
After Kieran opened fire, he once again rolled to the side to dodge the incoming bullets.
The skill [Firearm (Light Firearm) (Basic)] not only strengthened Kieran's body, but it also gave Kieran knowledge about firearms. Other than letting him clearly understand how to use a firearm, it also let Kieran understand the characteristics of using a firearm.
For example: sniper rifle!
Although knowledge was a sniper rifle, this did not stop Kieran from thinking of himself as a Sniper.
And the biggest secret of a Sniper was to not let the enemy know his position!
This was more important than killing him with a single shot!
Kieran hugged the sniper rifle and rolled into the ruins he had chosen beforehand to hide in.
Then, he looked down at the injury on his left calf.
[Shooting: Graze, Target inflicts 5 Damage to HP …]
Just as the combat log had described, this was only a graze from a bullet. However, this graze reminded Kieran of how strong his opponent was.
He had chosen an extremely advantageous environment and ambushed himself, but he was injured after only the third shot.
Calculating carefully, this was the first time Kieran had been injured since he entered this newbie dungeon.
Whoosh!
Kieran tore open the inner lining, tore it into strips, and tied them around his left calf.
"I should have learned from Maggie before I started!"
Feeling the pain from his calf, Kieran mocked himself.
Then, Kieran had to move again.
Kieran knew that if he stayed here for another moment, he would be surrounded. The rebel soldiers would definitely be able to determine his approximate position based on the position he had fired from.
Kieran did not doubt this at all.
His injured calf made Kieran's movements sluggish, especially after he entered [Undercover] mode. His already slow speed became even slower.
After five minutes, Kieran finally left the area.
When he hid in his new hiding place and looked at the original area, the seven rebel soldiers in charge of searching had already surrounded the area.
There were three soldiers in front and four at the back. Three soldiers moved forward carefully, while the other four stayed back and aimed.
If Kieran had been there, he would not have been able to escape.
Even if he had killed one or two of the soldiers, the rest would have been enough to turn him into a hornet's nest.
But things were different now.
After leaving the area, Kieran could safely snipe the enemy.
Bang!
A soldier in charge of searching fell in a pool of blood.
[Shooting: Lethal Attack, Inflicts 100 Damage to Target HP, (50 Firearm (Light Firearm) (Basic) x2), Target dies …]
The battlelog notification indicated that the soldier had died.
After that, Kieran started to move again.
As he listened to the gunshots behind him, he was extremely glad that he had chosen such a favorable environment for himself.
"Damn it!"
Hank cursed under his breath when he saw one of his men die.
He could not wait to find that damned sniper and tear him to pieces, but he knew that anger would not solve the problem in front of him.
If he did not think of a solution soon, his whole team would die here.
Hank scanned his surroundings, but the layers of ruins blocked his view.
More importantly, other than the sniper's sniping spot, there was not a single vantage point where he could have a clear view of the battlefield.
"The sniper must have chosen this spot on purpose!"
Hank came to a sudden realization.
At the same time, he had a bad feeling about this.
This was not a normal armed thug.
To be able to use a sniper rifle so skillfully and to choose such an environment, he must be a qualified soldier.
"Could it be the government army?!"
Hank frowned at the thought. He hesitated for a moment.
Hank was just a normal second lieutenant, but as Zarukhar's right-hand man, he knew exactly what was going on.
The rebels were going to lose.
They were trapped in a city without any reinforcements. Once they ran out of supplies, it was only a matter of time before they lost.
When that happened, it would be time to settle the score.
Hank did not want to lose his life in the process.
That was why he had chosen to follow Zarukhar. Zarukhar had guaranteed that he would be able to get through this without any worries, and that he would not have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of his life.
However, such a guarantee was built on the premise that Hank had not killed a large number of people from the government or the government.
Otherwise, even Zarukhar would not be able to protect him.
"If the person in front of me is really a spy sent by the government and I kill him … Whatever, this is the major's order! I have no other choice! "
Hank clenched his teeth and gave the order after some hesitation.
"Mark, Johnny, go to the previous sniping spot and occupy the vantage point!
Hendel, you go distract them!
The rest of you, pay attention to that bastard's movements! "
Orders were given out one after another.
Immediately, the rebel army began to move.
Once again, the difference between the rebels and the armed thugs was shown. If it had been the armed thugs, they would have pushed the blame to each other or even betrayed them.
But the rebels did not.
They followed their captain's orders and carried out their own tasks.
Two of the soldiers who had gone to the sniping spot and the one who had attracted Kieran's attention had moved out at the same time.
The remaining three soldiers, including Hank, scanned their surroundings for any possible locations where Kieran might appear.
The first thing Kieran noticed was the soldier who had been used as bait.
The soldier did not bother to hide himself, so he stood out in the midst of the ruins.
Kieran took aim at the soldier.
However, Kieran did not fire.
The soldier's sudden reaction made Kieran, who was used to being cautious, suspicious.
This did not match the soldier's professionalism.
They were worse than the armed thugs.
"A trap?"
Kieran thought of that possibility.
After all, the best way to deal with a sniper was to throw out a bait.
Kieran released his finger from the trigger and used the magnified vision of the [Worker Bee Scope] to search the area in front of him.
Soon, Kieran found something.
When he had been familiarizing himself with the ruins, Kieran had paid special attention to where people could hide and where they could sneak around.
Based on the position of the rebel soldiers, it would not be difficult to find the target.
"Two of them … are going to the sniping spot!"
Kieran looked at the soldier through the scope and instantly knew what he was up to.
The sniping spot was the only place in the area that could hinder Kieran. After killing the first sniper, Kieran would not allow a second or third sniper to appear.
Without hesitation, Kieran fired.
Bang!
One of the soldiers who had gone to the sniping spot was shot and fell to the ground.
The other rebel soldier did not hesitate at all. He jumped up from the ground and sprinted forward.
Kieran saw everything that had happened.
However, Kieran did not have the chance to fire again.
After the first shot, he once again relied on a quick roll to avoid the rebel soldiers' suppressive fire. However, his position was once again exposed.
Once again, the rebel soldiers surrounded them.
Worse still, he did not have time to rely on his [Undercover] to get out of the encirclement.
The sprinting soldier was less than 100 meters away from the sniping spot. With his current speed, he would reach the sniping spot in less than 10 seconds.
"Screw it!"
As he watched the soldier get closer and closer to the sniping spot, Kieran clenched his teeth and set up his sniper rifle again.
Exposing himself in the middle of an encirclement was a dangerous move.
Kieran knew that very well.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a narrow escape.
However, if he allowed the soldier to reach the sniping spot again, he would be dead for sure.
Bang!
Kieran fired. The sprinting soldier was shot and fell to the ground.
After firing the shot, Kieran, who had been rolling on the ground, was thrown off course by the impact of the bullet.
