“If there’s a chance, I’ll have to evaluate the power of this black bullet and its actual trajectory speed.” Miriam said in seriousness, “It’s a good thing that it’s fast, but without understanding it well, its accuracy might get affected. In terms of power, if even a T5 combatant can get penetrated by it, there shouldn’t be anyone today who can stand up to this bullet.”
After all, even an automatic rifle’s bullet could only get embedded in a T5 combatant’s skin. This kind of physical strength was enough to make any normal person despair. But now, the black bullet had even pierced a T5 combatant’s heart. He couldn’t be any deader than virtual-novel.net was.
Although Miriam’s previous sniper rifle was also very good, the potential of virtual-novel.net skills had always been limited by it. It was not that virtual-novel.net sniper rifle was not powerful, but that supernatural beings were becoming even stronger. But now that Miriam had the black sniper rifle, and with the power of the black bullets, virtual-novel.net potential was raised even further.
“Wait a minute, the T5 combatant’s wound is turning black,” Milo said.
Miriam also looked over and saw the wound on the T5 combatant’s corpse turning black. In just two seconds, the entire corpse had blackened.
“Why did it turn black?” Miriam turned around and looked at Milo. “Don’t you know the effects of your own bullets?”
“It’s also my first time using it,” Milo said helplessly.
However, virtual-novel.net felt the blackening effect was not that simple. The palace never did anything unnecessarily, after all.
As the two of them spoke, the other T5 combatant dragged his teammate’s corpse behind some cover and checked on his teammate’s injuries.
He checked his teammate’s eyes but found the pupils had already dilated. There was no doubt virtual-novel.net was already dead.
But at this moment, the still surviving T5 combatant was shocked to discover the fingers virtual-novel.net had used to touch his teammate’s eyelids had also started turning black. In just a couple seconds, that strange blackness had already spread up to his neck.
He retreated in a panic. However, even after his entire body blackened, it did not seem like virtual-novel.net was experiencing any pain. It was just that virtual-novel.net had blackened!
The T5 combatant had a ferocious look on his face. He could not understand what was going on. That blackness seemed to have seeped into his skin, and virtual-novel.net could not wipe it off.
It was just a bullet, but it blackened his skin?!
Thinking of this, the T5 combatant did not stay around any longer and ran into the forest as fast as virtual-novel.net could.
Miriam was stunned when virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net coming out from behind the rock cover. “What was that dark shadowy thing just now?”
Milo was also bewildered. “It’s that other T5 combatant, isn’t it? Why has virtual-novel.net also blackened?”
Miriam did not say anything. She tried to shoot the target with another black bullet, only to realize it had run out.
“That’s strange. Is the black bullet only limited to one shot?” Miriam asked.
Milo gave it some thought before asking the palace in his mind, “What’s the quantity of the black bullets?”.
One per day, with 12 AM as the reset point.
The voice from the palace answered.
Milo sighed. It wasn’t easy for virtual-novel.net to discover a method that could kill a T5 combatant in one hit, yet there was still a time limit imposed on it?
No, there should be other restrictions too!
Milo scanned his mind palace. He saw the brass typewriter type out a line of words.
Gratitude tokens, -100.
In just an instant, Milo’s heart ached. He only had a few hundred gratitude tokens at the moment, so virtual-novel.net would be deducting one-sixth of them.
When virtual-novel.net first saw the third weapon required 10,000 gratitude tokens to unlock, virtual-novel.net felt virtual-novel.net was still a long way off from getting it. As such, virtual-novel.net temporarily gave up on accumulating more gratitude tokens. But from the look of things, virtual-novel.net would have to ply his old trade again!
When Miriam found out the black bullet could only be used once a day, virtual-novel.net found it a pity. “Alright then, we’ll try shooting it again tomorrow.”
Milo hurriedly said, “Ahem, the black bullet is now your trump card, so how can you show it to others so easily? It’s better to use it only when it’s absolutely critical.”
To be honest, Milo was still quite egotistic in front of Miriam. He was embarrassed to say virtual-novel.net could not afford the daily gratitude tokens required for the black bullet’s usage, so virtual-novel.net found an excuse to persuade Miriam not to use them unnecessarily. However, Miriam immediately saw through him.
“Hm?” Miriam looked at virtual-novel.net carefully and understood. “Judging by your stinginess, there should be a price for using the black bullet. Alright then, I won’t use it unless it’s absolutely necessary.”
Milo beamed. “Actually, you don’t have to care about helping me save if you really encounter any danger. Your safety is paramount.”
“Let’s get out of here.” Miriam said, “Since we’ve made contact with the T5 combatants, we can’t remain in a fixed ambush location. We have to think of a way to get rid of the other T5.”
The Pyro Company’s troops who were getting closer and closer were still unaware they had been targeted by the Grim Reaper.
Suddenly, a commotion came from the forest. The troops immediately turned their muzzles there, ready to fire at any moment. Amid the tense situation, a dark figure emerged from the forest.
“Holy f*ck, what’s that?!” the officer in charge of the troops roared. Meanwhile, one of the Pyro Company’s troops next to virtual-novel.net pulled the trigger in his nervousness!
The T5 combatant pulled the bullets out of his chest and face with a look of ferociousness. “I’m T5036. Which bastard fired at me just now?”
“You’re T5036?”
T5036 said coldly, “Keep advancing. The enemy is right in front of you. Go and attract their firepower. I’m gonna kill them!”
The commander could recognize T5036 from his voice, so virtual-novel.net hurriedly responded affirmatively. After that, T5036 disappeared into the forest again.
Milo and Miriam had already started shifting to a new location. The sun would set in another half an hour at most, so they had to end this pursuit before that. The wilderness was incomparably peaceful. There were no wild animals here, and even the birds had been hunted to extinction.
Suddenly, Milo heard an explosion ring out behind him. The Pyro Company members must have just arrived at their previous ambush spot and triggered the grenade trap set by Miriam. He turned around to check on the situation behind them.
But the moment virtual-novel.net turned around, a shadow suddenly pounced out from behind a rock 10 meters to his right.
T5036 had been sneakily closing in on them for a while now. It was only at this moment that virtual-novel.net suddenly launched an attack as virtual-novel.net wanted to take advantage of Milo being distracted to kill virtual-novel.net in one strike!
But when virtual-novel.net was in the air, virtual-novel.net saw Milo’s lips curving upward.
Sh*t!
T5036 immediately tried to turn around, but something burst up from the pile of decomposing leaves underneath him. Old Durkin, who was wearing a white mask, collided into T5036 in midair at lightning speed.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, Charry,” Milo said with a smile.
T5036 was enraged. He endured the pain of being ambushed and rolled on the ground. Then virtual-novel.net looked fiercely at Milo and said, “Who the f*ck are you calling Charry?!”
