Chapter 1 The One Who Fired the Bullet

The one who fired the bullet was none other than the Jijiu hiding behind the rock wall.

He abandoned Martin, the tool used to open the orb's barrier (who had completely fainted), allowing him to continue opening the gray-white world for the Zhijue.

In his left hand, he held a revolver that resembled a Colt Python, while his right hand pinched a pile of fragments from miniature surveillance cameras. His eyes were fixed coldly in the direction of Liu Wu Dai.

He could clearly sense that the aura of the fragmented parts was located below the high-rise rooftop where Liu Wu Dai was. The ones who came to snipe them were a full-fledged team of two.

But so what?

In the next second, the Jijiu's figure directly disappeared from his original position, instantly appearing at the location of the pistol bullet.

The distance between him and Liu Wu Dai had been shortened to less than a thousand meters.

The gray-white domain floated in the high sky, with the bustling and noisy streets of the city that never sleeps below.

The Jijiu was pulled down by gravity, and at the same time, the wooden arrow shot swiftly from behind.

He didn't panic, pulling the revolver's trigger toward Liu Wu Dai's direction. During the free fall, he flashed again, appearing at the location of the second bullet – which was above the rooftop where Liu Wu Dai was.

'He can use that pistol to teleport?!'

Liu Wu Dai's telescopic equipment clearly captured the changes in the Jijiu's aura.

Without hesitation, she kicked off the ground and retreated, ignoring the massive consumption of her stamina. She drew her bow like a full moon, activating her title skill to shoot an arrow with a splitting effect.

Thousands of wooden fragments assaulted the Jijiu like shotgun pellets. He fired another shot forward, allowing the bullet to penetrate the wooden rain of splinters, directly activating teleportation. Without paying any price in injuries, he passed through the wooden arrow rain, appearing beside Liu Wu Dai.

'So fast! Doesn't this teleport have a cooldown?'

Liu Wu Dai was shocked, but saw the other party casually fire a shot behind him at an extremely fast speed, and throw a package wrapped with dense plastic tape at Liu Wu Dai's feet.

The number of teleports for the revolver matches the number of bullets, only 6 times, and all times can only be restored every 24 hours.

In this short moment, he had already used four teleport opportunities, which can be said to have played a part of his trump card in advance for the subsequent mission process.

But, all of this was necessary.

The package that was just thrown contained a full load of explosive substances, the power of which was enough to blow up the entire rooftop.

The Jijiu's prediction was to first use teleportation to make a surprise attack and get close to the enemy, then drop the explosive package, and finally use teleportation to leave, and press the remote control device to activate the explosives, so as to directly seriously injure or even kill one of the enemy's team members.

This set of combos was completed in one go, and the time required was extremely short.

If the other party didn't react in time, or didn't have enough displacement skills or control skills, they wouldn't be able to avoid or leave the Jijiu behind at all.

It was enough to easily kill most players of the same level without displacement skills during the first encounter, which could be called a "first encounter kill."

This was one of the reasons why the Jijiu dared to advance alone.

Unfortunately, Liu Wu Dai was not an ordinary player, and neither were her teammates.

Just as the Jijiu dropped the package and was about to teleport directly to the bullet behind, Li Ang's head poked out from the edge of the rooftop, directly activating [Drowning Assassination Art] on the Jijiu.

The Jijiu's throat was directly filled with warm water, and a strong sense of suffocation rushed to his brain, but he couldn't directly teleport away.

The teleport restriction of the revolver was that it could not attack or be attacked during the bullet's flight.

Once the rules were violated, it was impossible to teleport within 3 seconds (it was still possible to teleport to the location of the bullet 3 seconds after stopping the attack or being attacked).

Logically speaking, the Jijiu only needed to wait for the package to land, even if he had already ended the active attack, he could teleport away.

But in this short gap of time when the package landed, he was directly classified into the "attacked" range by [Drowning Assassination Art], and could not teleport away.

At the same time, the must-hit arrow that Liu Wu Dai had shot out earlier with its own tracking effect arrived just in time, directly ignoring the rare-quality film armor worn by the Jijiu, and pierced directly through his left shoulder with a "呲" sound.

Blood flowed all over the ground, and a fountain spurted from his mouth. All of this was within the Jijiu's expectations.

If he hadn't made complete preparations, how dare he rush over from a distance of a thousand meters?

As a senior member of the Tanhua organization, he would not lack skills, equipment, and props. One of the skills was called [Purification Edict].

[Skill Scroll Name: Purification Edict]

[Attribute: Consumable, disappears after being used three times]

[Type: Psionic Energy]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Effect: Heals the target's injuries, removes all restrictive effects and debuffs on the target, and temporarily ignores the restrictive effects applied within the next 3 seconds. All injuries, restrictive effects, and debuffs will erupt again after three seconds, and cause additional psionic damage.]

[Consumption: 500 points of psionic value]

[Cooldown time: 4 hours]

[Note: "We need to purify this filthy air." – Ximrui Empire Chief Oracle]

[Note: "Lord Oracle, please don't turn enemy soldiers into vegetative states anymore!" – Ximrui Empire Chief Oracle Attendant]

Although this [Purification Edict] was only a consumable skill, it did not diminish its power at all.

When used on the enemy, it could cause additional control effects and powerful psionic damage to the enemy after a brief delay.

When used on himself, it could allow himself to be free from any restriction skills within three seconds, perfectly conforming to the restriction of the teleporting pistol.

A faint golden light emerged from the Jijiu's body, directly offsetting Li Ang's recovery of the injuries on his left shoulder, and even refreshed the restriction time of the teleporting pistol, allowing him to teleport again!

From the Jijiu teleporting to the rooftop, to him dropping the explosive package, to him using all of this, it all happened in less than two seconds. If it were a low-level player or a point-farming trash, they probably wouldn't even be able to see the situation clearly.

'It's a pity, but I'm the victor in the end.'

The Jijiu's expression was neither sad nor happy. Against the backdrop of the faint golden light all over his body, he activated teleportation.

The next moment, he appeared beside Li Ang.

To be precise, it was beside Miss Chai who had just grabbed the bullet.
