Chapter 799: Chapter 313 Dual-tail Scorpion_2

[-6234]

Qi De’s blade struck heavily on the head of the Dual-tail Scorpion, a damage figure of 6000 floated up.

“Pretty high damage!”

Wang Tao nodded to himself.

The Dual-tail Scorpion’s whole body was encased in a shell, and even if it lacked defensive abilities, with that shell alone, its defense wouldn’t be low. Qi De’s damage was quite impressive.

...

After being hit, the monster not only unleashed a Mental Attack from its mouth but also started to violently shake its pincers, attacking Qi De.

Although Qi De was very agile and dodged most of the attacks, one still hit him, but Qi De reacted quickly by raising the Iron Bone Knife.

Block.

Bang!

[-1029]

Qi De was sent flying back over ten meters.

“Shit! What a strong force!”

Although Qi De couldn’t see the HP he lost, he could definitely feel an internal injury.

He had used his weapon to block the attack and still got hurt, so the strength of the Dual-tail Scorpion was tremendous!

Bang—

Just as the Dual-tail Scorpion continued its pursuit of Qi De, a loud gunshot rang out.

[-3253]

A damage of over 3000 appeared on the scorpion’s head, causing it to immediately halt and turn towards Wang Tao’s direction.

Wang Tao turned his head and saw that Zhou Long was the one who fired the shot.

Zhou Long was cradling a large, oddly shaped gun in his arms.

But judging by its thick, black barrel, calling it a cannon wouldn’t be wrong.

Feeling Wang Tao’s gaze, Zhou Long immediately patted the gun in his hand and said,

“A trial product from the Hope Research Institute—Crystal Energy Gun!”

“Crystal Energy Gun? Is this thing powered by a Crystal Core?”

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised.

“That’s right! But it has quite a few imperfections, like the great recoil, high energy consumption, and the need for recharging…”

Zhou Long looked a bit helpless.

His Awakened Ability was of a controlling nature; although capable of dealing damage, he certainly couldn’t release his Awakening at every enemy he saw. Additionally, his Ability was mostly supportive… which meant his attacking ability was quite limited.

And this Crystal Energy Gun could make up for his lack of attack power!

He usually wore Powered Armor and wielded this Crystal Energy Gun to kill enemies.

The gun’s biggest downside was the excessive consumption of Crystal Cores—every shot was like shooting money!

“Awesome!”

Wang Tao praised sincerely.

He had already been shocked when he saw that the Powered Armor was powered by a Crystal Core. Now, seeing this gun using Crystal Cores as bullets… the Hope Research Institute had extended their research to weapons as well!

Wang Tao thought the power of the gun must be at least Level 4.

He had initially only wanted to get himself a set of Powered Armor, but now he had another goal!

At that moment, the Dual-tail Scorpion was being struck from both sides by Qi De and Huang Wu, forcing it to abandon its intention of attacking Zhou Long and venting its rage on the two close-quarters Awakeners.

Zhou Long, after the Crystal Energy Gun was fully charged, seized an opportunity to take a potshot, which provoked another furious roar from the scorpion.

Seeing everyone attacking, Wang Tao couldn’t keep slacking off.

So, a handgun appeared in his hand as well.

The group, including Qi De, and Yun and others not far away, were all paying attention to Wang Tao. After all, they were quite familiar with each other, but almost knew nothing about Wang Tao, only aware that he was a strong Awakener.

Thus, they were curious to know just how strong Wang Tao’s combat abilities were.

What they saw in Wang Tao’s hand was… a handgun?

If they weren’t mistaken, it seemed to be a military model of the Type 400 handgun. It was a fine weapon, beloved by militaries even before the Apocalypse.

But could it harm a fourth-order monster?

Wasn’t Wang Tao’s slacking off a bit too extreme?

As everyone was rendered speechless, they saw Wang Tao fire at the Dual-tail Scorpion.

Bang!

A gun noise, clearly distinct from ordinary handguns, sounded.

[-3342]

Wang Tao’s Air Bullet inflicted over 3000 HP of damage on the Dual-tail Scorpion, comparable to Zhou Long’s Crystal Energy Gun.

The scorpion was knocked askew by the shot.

This raised the eyebrows of those watching Wang Tao.

They had misjudged; Wang Tao’s handgun was no ordinary gun!

Could it be something similar to a Crystal Energy Gun? Or perhaps an Ability?

They felt the likelihood of an Ability was greater.

That made them very interested indeed because such ranged attacking Abilities were rare, and those utilizing guns for attacks were even rarer.

However, wasn’t Wang Tao a System Awakener? Shouldn’t he be better at close combat? Was he concealing his strength or had he played his trump card?

For a moment, everyone was somewhat confused…

Wang Tao had certainly concealed a portion of his strength.

He felt that with four Awakeners present, along with a bunch of Level 3 Ability Users, various Weapon Equipment, and Powered Armor and such, it should be very easy to kill this 150,000 HP Level 4, Lord.

There was no need to show off with an Awakening; he wasn’t the type to seek the limelight. Besides, he had only just raised his Awakening Energy limit to 1000, and it wasn’t fully recharged yet, so he needed to conserve it.

Of course, snatching the kill would be even better.

Under the combined attack of the four, the Dual-tail Scorpion continuously launched Mental Attacks, but its mental attacks weren’t strong, and aside from Wang Tao, the other three could withstand them.

The Dual-tail Scorpion, obviously enraged, no longer used Mental Attacks and instead directed all its fury at Qi De, who it attacked furiously.

“Shit!”

Qi De cursed under his breath.

Generally, zombies and monsters tend to focus on the most threatening individual. This meant that among the four, Qi De had the highest Attack.

To Qi De, this show-off moment was somewhat enjoyable, but the danger escalated dramatically once he became the focus of the Dual-tail Scorpion’s attention.
