Mag was a Cannon Gunner, a branch of the Mechanic Class. He was an expert in using guns, and his attack power was very high. The stronger the weapon, the more advantage he could bring out. This was Han Xiao's first time fighting a high-level enemy of the same class.
The enemy was on the roof, and he was on the ground. Every meter was a natural moat created by a Cannon Gunner.
In the blink of an eye, Han Xiao completed the analysis of the enemy and the surrounding terrain in his mind, and quickly planned his escape route.
A level-56 Cannon Gunner. His attack power is very strong, but his health is very fragile. I have one chance to deal a heavy blow to the enemy, but it's not easy to kill him. Once I'm held back, the enemy's reinforcements will come immediately. I don't have any supplies, and the human wave tactic is not good for me. I have to escape quickly while I'm hurting the enemy.
Han Xiao's shoes shone with a blue light, and he slid away with a whoosh.
"Trying to escape?" Mag was expressionless. He had already noticed that Han Xiao's mobility came from his skateboard shoes. He picked up the RX-108 assault rifle and started firing. Every bullet was aimed at Han Xiao's shoes accurately. As long as the shoes were destroyed, the enemy wouldn't be able to escape.
However, a layer of magnetically-controlled armor quickly covered the skateboard shoes. Sparks flew, and the bullets bounced off.
"That was close." Han Xiao was slightly shocked. Luckily, he was prepared and reacted in time to block Mag's shots. Otherwise, it would be much more difficult for him to escape if his shoes were destroyed. Taking a hit without retaliating was not Han Xiao's style. As he retreated strategically, he raised both guns to return fire. His accuracy was not inferior to Mag's, and three large-caliber steel-core bullets hit Mag's bulletproof vest. Mag shuddered. He wasn't good at stamina, so he could barely withstand the kinetic energy of the bullets. He endured the pain and moved between the buildings with the hook gun, following closely behind Han Xiao.
Mag had the advantage of moving on the roof, so he picked up the tiger claw shotgun and used an explosive shot to hit Han Xiao again. The force of the explosion blasted Han Xiao into the wall again.
Before Han Xiao could pull himself out of the wall, he suddenly felt a sense of danger. Without hesitation, he covered himself in armor.
Mag's expression was cold as he stood on the rooftop. He held an assault rifle in each hand, and used Slide Shot and Bullet Shower to increase the rate of fire. The barrage of bullets that rained down like a storm pinned Han Xiao against the wall. The holes in the wall were spraying out plumes of lime, and the cracks kept expanding.
"More or less dead." Mag shot out hundreds of bullets within a few seconds, and all of them hit their targets. He even mixed in a skill. This round was a burst of power. Even if the target didn't die, he would at least be half-dead.
Dust and ash flew everywhere, making it impossible to see what was going on in the pit.
Hum —
A series of strange noises were heard.
Suddenly, an invisible force field erupted from the wall. The rainwater was pushed away, forming an open area. The bullets were also bounced off and scattered all over the sky.
Repulsion Field Drive!
Han Xiao made use of the repulsive force to jump out of the hole in the wall. He held the Ghost sniper rifle in one hand and aimed it at Mag from afar. The long body of the rifle was like a spear, locking onto Mag's direction.
Time seemed to have slowed down.
Mag felt a chill down his spine. His intuition told him that the rifle was extremely lethal. He quickly dodged, but before he could do so, Han Xiao had already opened fire.
A blue light flashed past. Mag felt an irresistible force in his chest, and he was sent flying. He rolled in the puddles and fell to the other side of the rooftop. He quickly grabbed onto the roof to prevent himself from falling. His chest was in excruciating pain. He looked down and saw blood spurting out from a hole in his right chest. Even his bulletproof vest was pierced through. He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
"My lung is pierced …" Mag had difficulty breathing. Every time he took a breath, he felt as if his lungs were being scraped back and forth by a steel knife. The pain made him sweat profusely. This shot was even more powerful than when he was at his best. He was horrified.
His opponent's explosive power was on par with his trump card, Ordina. Where did this powerhouse come from? He had never seen such a powerhouse before!
If he hadn't avoided his vital organs, this shot would have hit his eyes.
If he had dodged half a second slower, the consequences would have been …
Mag had a lingering fear. His wariness of Han Xiao had reached its peak.
You have destroyed Mag's [Synthetic Ceramic Bulletproof Vest].
You have inflicted 772 points of damage to Mag!
Mag is in a moderate bleeding state. He is losing 5 health points per second for 60 seconds.
Mag's lung is pierced. Agility -10%. Movement -15%.
This explosive shot was enhanced by [Flaming Will] and [Overload], so the damage was terrifying.
Han Xiao panted heavily. Mag's continuous shooting had reduced the durability of his magnetically-controlled armor to the warning line of 100 points. This was the first time it was close to being damaged. If it wasn't for the fact that he had strengthened the armor several times, it would have been destroyed with the defense and durability of the original version.
Launchers were known for their firepower. If Mag could get a more powerful gun, his attack power would be even more terrifying.
Mag was already shocked that Han Xiao was still unharmed after taking a round of shots.
If they continued to fight, Han Xiao would definitely win. However, he already heard the sound of engines in the distance. The enemy's reinforcements were coming.
This is Ordina's territory. Mag knows my explosive power, so he will definitely fight with me. The most important thing now is to escape. I have already gotten the item, so there is no need for me to fight.
As this thought flashed through his mind, Han Xiao turned around and left without hesitation.
Mag didn't dare to pursue and fire recklessly like before. He endured the pain and followed from afar, shooting a few shots before finding cover. He was so cautious that he looked like a completely different person. He was really frightened by Han Xiao's shocking shot.
Han Xiao was relieved of a lot of pressure. While Mag was afraid, he enhanced his skateboard shoes with [Overload], and disappeared from Mag's sight in the blink of an eye.
Mag couldn't catch up with him. The city's streets and alleys were complicated, so he disappeared without a trace. He quickly called his colleagues to check the city's surveillance, but the other party seemed to have disappeared.
The target of the operation was the seller. The seller was very experienced in escaping after being tracked for so many years after being reminded by this buyer. This small mistake caused the agents to lose track of the seller, so Mag could only chase after the buyer. However, not only did he let the final target escape, but he, the ace, was also injured. Anger, depression, and indignation were rolling in his heart. Failing the mission was like a slap to his face.
The Ordina agents started to search, but of course, they found nothing. They could only send the battle footage to the intelligence department for analysis. They didn't have much hope at first, but they unexpectedly found someone with a matching combat style.
Black Phantom!
They don't look the same. The other party might be wearing a human skin mask.
"That makes sense. Only Black Phantom can disappear from the world like a ghost!"
In the operation command room, Mag was letting the doctor bandage his wounds with a gloomy expression. He had heard of Black Phantom's name before. As the ace of the intelligence agency, he didn't think much of a lone killer like him. He didn't expect that in this accidental encounter, as the pursuer who had the upper hand, he would be severely injured by Black Phantom and even lose track of the target. Mag felt very embarrassed and brooded over it.
"Legend is indeed a legend." The operation command didn't blame Mag. If the opponent was Black Phantom, failure was acceptable. The problem was, why did Black Phantom come to the Western Continent and have a deal with the criminal they were tracking?
The higher-ups of the Ordina intelligence department took Black Phantom's appearance very seriously. They called a meeting and asked the hacker group to broadcast the source of the information. It was the short call record between Han Xiao and the seller and the location of the rendezvous.
"Hello."
"How do you want to hand over the goods?"
"Three days later. I'll send you the coordinates later. We'll hand over the goods at the same time."
"Okay, I'll send one of my men to do the handover."
The last sentence was the main point. The dealer sent Black Phantom, so the identity of the dealer was obvious!
