Pan Kuang was closing in quickly! Han Xiao kept pulling the trigger. Bullets flew out of the muzzle and pierced through the air toward Pan Kuang. However, Pan Kuang seemed to have a beast's instinct for danger. He was always able to change directions before Han Xiao could open fire. He fired a total of thirteen shots. Nine of them were dodged, leaving bullet holes on the ground. Four of the sniper bullets hit, but after breaking through the blade-like barrier, their kinetic energy was depleted and they were deflected by the circulating energy shield. The total damage was only around eighty points.
The higher the level of a superhuman, the higher the resistance of their body. Normal firearms would gradually become useless. The power of conventional weapons was a reflection of the level of a civilization. As versions and maps were released, conventional weapons would gradually be upgraded. Naturally, that was not the time for that yet.
The distance of a few hundred meters was quickly shortened. Pan Kuang's murderous expression appeared clearly in Han Xiao's vision.
"Damn it, what a snakeskin move."
Han Xiao cursed in his mind. He hurriedly threw away the sniper rifle, pulled the string, and activated all the delay bombs. He then retreated in a cowardly manner.
Pan Kuang was faster than him. He stepped onto the rock in a few steps and stepped into the circle of delay bombs. He immediately realized that something was wrong. His expression changed, and he leaped into the air. His blade spun and condensed under him. It was as if he was stepping on a whirlwind. He felt as if he was going to spiral into the sky at any moment.
"Boom!"
Ten delay bombs exploded at the same time!
The flames swallowed Pan Kuang whole!
Your Delayed High Explosive Grenade has dealt 34 damage to Pan Kuang! (Damage reduction has been calculated)
Your Delayed High Explosive Grenade has dealt 37 damage to Pan Kuang!
Pan Kuang has been lightly burned!
More than ten damage notifications appeared on the interface. Han Xiao glanced at them. This round of explosions had taken away more than four hundred of Pan Kuang's health points.
Based on your level, you have received some information about the enemy!

However, Han Xiao did not rely on data. From Pan Kuang's performance, it was obvious that he was the type with high attack and high agility. His HP was definitely limited. The explosion just now had taken away at least 20% of the enemy's HP. Furthermore, Pan Kuang had been through a fierce battle and had been on the run for an hour. He was not in perfect condition.
"My chances of winning are higher!"
Han Xiao looked at the experience points on the interface. It was a whopping 520,000 experience points, all of which he had invested into leveling up! He had risen four levels in a row like a rocket!
Total Level 28!
His HP was 985, almost reaching 1,000!
Originally, he had already practiced the Energy Refinement Technique 48 times, and his Energy Points were just around 390. He was just one step away from leveling up four times in a row, and his Energy Points immediately increased to 514 points. He had exceeded the 400 points requirement of Level 5 and obtained a new attribute bonus! His Strength, Endurance, Agility, and Intelligence had all increased by 10%.
He invested the rest of his experience points into [Continuous Slide Shot], leveling it up to Level 2.
"Whoosh!"
Pan Kuang rushed out of the flames. His body was charred black, and he looked pathetic. His eyes were like that of a wolf's as he chased after Han Xiao. He let out a low growl, took a step forward, and glided forward like the wind. In the blink of an eye, he had closed in on Pan Kuang. He was going to cut this little bug in half!
Pan Kuang was shocked by Han Xiao's sudden burst of speed, and even Pan Kuang was taken aback by the sudden change in speed. He dodged the blade by a hair's breadth and quickly drew the two Berserk Eagles from his waist. With the increased shooting speed, he fired a few steel-core bullets at Pan Kuang's chest.
Pan Kuang retracted his blade, and the bullets were all shredded into pieces. Only one stray bullet hit his chest, but its power was reduced by his powerful energy. It was stuck in his muscles and could not move an inch.
Han Xiao saw that normal bullets were ineffective, so he quickly changed to high-explosive bullets.
Pan Kuang took advantage of this short moment to close in on him.
"How dare you change your magazine in front of me? Are you tired of living?"
Changing bullets in front of a martial artist? His combat experience was too inexperienced! Pan Kuang's face was ferocious. He stabbed the Wind-Cutter Blade at Han Xiao's throat. He wanted to pierce through it and skewer Han Xiao like a meat skewer!
He could see that Han Xiao would not be able to dodge this attack!
"Ding!"
The tip of the blade hit Pan Kuang's throat, but it was blocked by a layer of metal that looked like fish scales!
Pan Kuang's pupils shrank.
When did this armor appear?!
Han Xiao's throat tightened. Although the magnetically-controlled retractable armor could withstand the impact, some of the force would still pass through his body. He raised his pistols and fired continuously. Pan Kuang blocked the bullets as he did before, but the high-explosive bullets exploded upon contact. Flames snaked up his body and burned fiercely.
"What kind of bullets are these?" Pan Kuang was shocked. He tried to shake off the flames, but he failed. He could not shake off the orange flames, and his skin started to burn. He had no choice but to withdraw his energy to protect himself. This drained a lot of his energy.
The high-explosive bullets were very sticky and caused continuous burning damage. Pan Kuang's resistance was too high, so his HP decreased very slowly. At least, it was better than normal bullets. At least his HP was continuously burning.
The bullets from the two Berserk Eagles poured out in torrents until only the last bullet was left, which was used to reload the clip of Slide Shot. During this period of time, Pan Kuang's clothes and hair were all burned away. The price Han Xiao had to pay was to use the Magnetically-Controlled Retractable Armor to withstand Pan Kuang's powerful attacks. The armor's durability was decreasing rapidly.
Han Xiao's eyes narrowed. He put away the Berserk Eagle (because of this, he was hit again) and pulled out the foldable Platinum battle sword from his back. With the sword in his right hand and the mechanical arm in his left, it was as if he was possessed by a barbaric ancestor. Like a fearless beast, he engaged in the most dangerous close-range combat with Pan Kuang. Blood splattered everywhere.
You hit me, I hit you back. Han Xiao's three pieces of equipment, the magnetically-controlled retractable armor, the mechanical arm, and the battle sword could all be used as shields. In comparison, Pan Kuang, who could only use his body to block, seemed to be at a disadvantage.
However, the reality was the complete opposite. Pan Kuang had the upper hand. Usually, he would hit Han Xiao seven or eight times before Han Xiao could land a hit on him. Their close-range combat abilities were not on the same level. Pan Kuang was a pugilist, so his close-range combat skills were much stronger than Han Xiao's. Han Xiao's close-range combat ability was as laughable as a tortoise's punch to Pan Kuang. If it were not for his equipment, Han Xiao would not have been able to land a hit on Pan Kuang.
"You chose to engage in close-range combat with me. Do you want to die faster?" Pan Kuang did not understand why Han Xiao dared to engage in close-range combat with a pugilist. In his opinion, this kind of behavior was equivalent to using one's own weakness to challenge the enemy's strength. It was arrogant and reckless, no different from courting death.
The blade swept past, and a deep wound appeared on Han Xiao's cheek. Blood flowed out profusely.
Before the battle, he had taken off his Facial Simulator to prevent it from being damaged during the battle. Now, he was showing his real face. Pan Kuang had already recognized him. He was the defector who had been rumored to be in the organization some time ago, Zero.
Pan Kuang did not know why Zero would appear here and attack him, but he was not interested. He only knew that the person in front of him was an enemy. No matter what the reason was, he would just kill him.
The force of the slash passed through the armor and shook Han Xiao's body. His HP dropped rapidly, but Han Xiao's eyes were extremely calm.
He dared to use his own weakness to challenge the enemy's strength, so he was confident. The previous snipe, the explosion, and the current method of exchanging blows had reduced Pan Kuang's HP by seven to eight hundred.
Pan Kuang had the protection of the Magnetically-Controlled Retractable Armor, so his HP had only decreased by three hundred. Let me put it in another way … The Magnetically-Controlled Retractable Armor had reduced his HP loss by at least 1,500.
The Magnetically-Controlled Retractable Armor was a piece of equipment that Han Xiao should not have at his current level. It had 75 Defense points, which was extremely shocking. Even after reaching Level 40 or 50, it was still very strong. It was his biggest trump card at the moment.
With this armor, he had the ability to kill anyone of the same level.
Han Xiao twisted his hands and used Grappling Capture to lock Pan Kuang's arm that was holding the blade. Pan Kuang's eyes were filled with disdain. His arm was as soft as noodles, and he instantly escaped from the Grappling Capture. He then slashed Han Xiao again, leaving a deep cut on the Lightweight Mechanical Arm. If it were not for the Platinum Alloy, the Lightweight Mechanical Arm would have fallen apart.
At this moment, Han Xiao noticed a detail. Pan Kuang's movements slowed down for a moment, as if he was trying to conserve his energy.
He's starting to get tired. He's exhausted too much energy, and he's losing his attribute bonus. His condition is deteriorating.
Han Xiao's eyes flashed. His sharp battle sense allowed him to discover the hidden information in Pan Kuang's movements. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for. He instantly chose to retrieve the item that had been placed in the interface.
Character Summon Card — Norsa Kono!
Character Summon Card has been used. Current usage count: 1/1. Usage count: 1/1. Card will disappear soon.
Pan Kuang suddenly saw a person's shadow appear behind Han Xiao. A pair of strange eyes with colorful mist swirling around them were the most obvious. Pan Kuang felt a sense of familiarity.
Who is that?
It looks like … Norsa! Isn't he dead?
What's going on? Pan Kuang was alarmed. He wanted to retreat, but it was too late. With just a glance, he fell into an illusion and could not move.
