As time passed, Hu Hao's heart sank bit by bit. After an unknown amount of time, a bright beam of light cut through the darkness of the cave and shone out from the depths of the mine.
It was a flashlight!
The person was still alive!
Hu Hao did not dare to relax in the slightest until he heard a pleasantly surprised voice that sounded like someone who had survived a disaster.
"Report, I found the carcass of a Rock Lizard!
I didn't find any other enemies! "
When Hu Hao heard that, his expression instantly became interesting.
The Rock Lizard that had occupied the depths of the mine for nearly a year and had not been killed despite several encirclements. In the end, he had no choice but to compromise and use nearly a hundred black-toothed rats in exchange for peace. But now, the Rock Lizard was dead!
It was killed in the dark by a person who had crawled in from the black-toothed rats' cave!
Hu Hao turned on his tactical flashlight and led the other warriors of Combat Team No. 3 into the depths of the cave bit by bit to prevent a sudden attack.
Soon, the carcass of a huge bug beast that even the flashlight could not completely cover came into view.
Looking at the bloody eye socket of the Rock Lizard, Hu Hao's eyelids suddenly twitched. The carcass in front of him seemed to overlap with the shot in his mind.
Killed with one shot!
An insectoid with two defensive abilities was killed by a single shot!
If he did not know that Situ would never appear here, he would have thought that Situ had snuck in and killed the Rock Lizard with one shot.
Hu Hao raised his flashlight and looked around. He saw another cave that led directly to the mine and immediately fell into deep thought.
This cave was the trap he had left behind!
What was the purpose of the powerful intruder who had snuck into the mine?
Why did he sneak in and then leave quietly after killing the Rock Lizard?
After a long silence, Hu Hao ordered the earth-control warriors to seal off the cave Qi Yuan had entered. If they gave chase now, they might be able to catch up to him. However, it was meaningless to rashly chase after a supernatural being who could kill a Rock Lizard. Moreover, this person had not shown any hostility. If they accidentally angered him, it might be even more dangerous than angering the Rock Lizard.
After the cave was sealed, Hu Hao carefully examined the Rock Lizard's carcass. After confirming that there was only a wound in its left eye socket, he suddenly squatted down.
"Saber!" Hu Hao stretched out his right hand.
The warrior beside him immediately pulled out a dagger and handed it over.
Hu Hao pressed down on the carcass with one hand and began to cut open the carcass with the other.
The sharp blade entered through the edge of the Rock Shell Lizard's neck and quickly swam over its corpse.
Although the Rock Lizard had two defensive abilities, the gaps in its armor were not very tough. With Hu Hao's Tier 1 strength, the Rock Lizard's head was quickly cut off.
Hu Hao glanced at the flesh on the neck and directly emptied the dead man's brain. Then, he felt the bullet hole in the skull and found the fatal bullet.
After taking out the bullet and washing it with clean water, Hu Hao carefully looked at the bullet in his hand under the spotlight. When he saw the deformed pattern on the surface of the bullet, his face suddenly became interesting.
He recognized the origin of this bullet at a glance. It was the armor-piercing bullet made by Master Luo himself!
The armor-piercing bullet was obviously not enough to kill a Rock Lizard in one shot. This mysterious person either had a powerful mechanical weapon or a supernatural ability that could add extra damage to the bullet!
The former meant that this mysterious person had the support of other forces, the latter meant that this mysterious person had strong individual combat power.
No matter which situation this mysterious person belonged to, it meant that there was a lot of trouble and danger.
What made Hu Hao even more shocked was that this mysterious person was hiding in Blackstone Town!
"Drag the carcass to the car. I need to go back to Blackstone Town immediately. You guys stay here and make sure that everything is safe!"
Hu Hao glanced at the decapitated carcass, put away the bullet, and quickly left the mine.
Compared to the Rock Lizard hiding in the mine, this mysterious man who could kill it with one shot was obviously more dangerous. If he were to hide in the dark and launch a sneak attack, there were not many people in Blackstone Town who could escape from his gun. Even Xu Kui and Si Tu's defense was not stronger than the Rock Lizard's.
The truck carried the Rock Lizard's carcass and sped in the direction of Blackstone Town.
On the other side of the wilderness, Qi Yuan, who was dressed in rags, took a detour and walked in the direction of Blackstone Town.
Compared to when he came out, Qi Yuan's appearance was a lot worse. The brand new combat suit could not withstand the Rock Lizard's bite. Although he managed to snatch his pants back from the Rock Lizard's mouth at the last moment and avoided the tragic situation of running naked, the mucus from the Rock Lizard's mouth still soaked Qi Yuan's entire body and gave off a strange smell.
The smell was very faint, but to insects with a sensitive sense of smell, the smell of the Rock Lizard was very obvious. It was enough to identify the danger level of the target.
Along the way, not only did he not encounter any Corrupt Wolves, even the black-toothed rats fled when they heard the smell.
"Where did all the insects in the wilderness go? There's not even a target to test my gun on!"
Qi Yuan looked at the calm wilderness with some puzzlement. He wondered if he had really arrived at the end of the world.
The Annihilation Warhead had a lot of destructive power. Together with the ability to stand still provided by the Steel Defense, it should be enough to deal with most rank one Transcendents …
"Hmm!
My marksmanship needs to be improved. I can't waste this powerful ability. "
Qi Yuan looked at the Talent Tree in his body. After the Annihilation Warhead lit up, the number of gray balls of light did not decrease.
The Annihilation Warhead's ball of light was some distance away from the Steel Defense, but it was closer to the gray ball of light that represented Firearms Control.
What did the distance between these balls of light mean?
Was it the synergy between superpowers?
Random positions?
Or was it some other unknown reason?
Qi Yuan rubbed the space between his eyebrows. This mysterious Talent Tree was his biggest reliance for survival in this new era, but his understanding of it was still very shallow. This way, there would be many unknown dangers hidden in it.
Why do I have to fumble around and summarize it? Can't you give me a detailed instruction manual?
Bad review!
Qi Yuan silently complained as he checked his body. The wound caused by the Rock Lizard's bite had almost completely healed. Although the wound was not big, this recovery speed clearly surpassed normal self-healing.
Was this the recovery effect brought about by the Steel Defense, or was it the effect of the Talent Tree?
The Combat Domain seemed to have a similar superpower — Self-healing. It could allow wounds to heal quickly, but he did not know if it could heal injuries like a broken arm or a broken leg.
There were so many different superpowers in the Talent Tree's balls of light. There should be similar talents. He had lit up his superpowers in both offense and defense. If he also had Self-healing, then he would have a complete set.
He could fight, defend, and heal. He was definitely the perfect superpower template!
Qi Yuan controlled his walking speed and successfully arrived at Blackstone Town before the gate closed.
Even if he had awakened two superpowers, it was dangerous to spend the night in the wilderness.
Not only was Qi Yuan empty-handed, but he also looked worse than many Wild Hunters. After the mucus all over his body was blown dry, the combat uniform on his body had turned into dry strips of cloth. However, the guards at the gate had already remembered Qi Yuan's appearance. Not only did they give up on the routine inspection, they even took the initiative to make way for him, giving him enough face.
Qi Yuan did not notice that there was an additional figure on the watchtower. Hu Hao had climbed up the watchtower at some point in time and was observing the Wild Hunters entering Blackstone Town with rapt attention.
However, when he saw Qi Yuan's sorry state, his eyes clearly flashed.
