Under the blood moon hanging high in the night sky, three people were standing on top of a high tower.
Ning Qingxuan stood with her hands behind her back, her long hair blown by the evening breeze and her cloak rustling.
The cold moonlight outlined a dreamy light and shadow along the three-dimensional contours of his facial features. Even at such a close distance, the Son of God could hardly see the slightest flaw on Ning Qingxuan's face.
But soon, the Son of God shifted his gaze away from Ning Qingxuan's face and turned to look at the empty platform not far below.
The fight between Hill and Zanke has gradually moved away from the alley, and the two are now fighting on a platform outside the alley.
The ground around had long since become dilapidated and in ruins, with the solid stone slabs cracking into pieces. The collision of sharp blades produced bright sparks in the night, accompanied by gusts of air waves and sonic booms, overturning all the furnishings around.
With the help of the imperial weapon, Zanke was able to see through Hill's moves every time. After a long time, the girl was put into an awkward situation where she was caught in a dilemma.
Not far away, Main raised the huge gun-shaped imperial weapon [Romantic Turret] in her hand, but she took the opportunity to shoot more than ten times, but was accurately avoided by Zanke every time.
"It's useless! I know exactly what you're thinking! So just let me behead you!"
Laughing wildly, Zanke suddenly kicked Hill hard in the abdomen, and then suddenly pounced on Maine beside him.
Maine, who was not good at close combat, had no time to react and was grabbed by Zanke on the top of her head with one hand and her whole body was lifted up. The imperial weapon in her hand was kicked away by Zanke.
Having lost her romantic turret, even though Marne was not completely powerless, she could only struggle in vain when being caught by a man like Zanke.
"Aa ...
The severe pain from the top of her head and the fear of impending death made Marin unable to control her screams.
Hill was cautious and concerned about Marin's situation, so she didn't dare to attack rashly.
In the distance, Ning Qingxuan shook her head when she saw this scene.
"There are still some issues with the fighting method. As a ranged soldier, you should keep a distance from your partner from the beginning. As long as you can ensure that the opponent is within your sight and range, it will be fine."
"Zanker's imperial weapon can certainly see through people's minds, and can even predict the opponent's future short-term actions based on the subtle force exerted by the target's muscles on the surface of the body.
However, if you seize the opportunity to shoot at a blind spot where the opponent can't see you at all, there is no chance of a one-shot kill."
After all, Zanke's imperial weapon is only auxiliary, and what is really used for fighting is his own physical skills.
Seeing that Zanke was about to take action, Ning Qingxuan finally gave the order.
"Kill the target."
…dividing line…
Am I going to die…?
The moment Zanke's sharp blade enlarged in her pupils, Marin seemed to feel that the time around her had become incredibly slow.
She could see the cold light on the approaching blade, she could see Hill's increasingly terrified expression and his desperate figure rushing towards her, and she could also see Zanke's completely twisted and crazy laughter that was so close to her.
I have clearly thought about it. After the revolution succeeds, I will live a good life as a great hero.
I have imagined that beautiful day countless times, but now I am going to die here?
Although after joining the night raid, with the blood on her hands increasing day by day, Marin had already prepared herself mentally for retribution one day, but when death really came——
"Sure enough, I'm still unwilling..."
Bang--!!!
A slightly strange gunshot was heard.
The next moment, Marin felt the pain of being trapped by the big hand above her head disappear, and her body fell under the influence of gravity.
She stared blankly with her eyes wide open, looking at the giant man in front of her who was as strong as an iron tower. After shaking slightly for a moment, her body slowly fell down.
Puff——!!!!
The sound of blood gushing out startled her. Myne's pupils widened suddenly and she found that Zanke's head was gone.
No, it wasn't that it disappeared, but its neck was torn apart by something, and its head rolled not far away.
"Main——!!!"
Hill's exclamation brought her back to her senses, and she felt herself being embraced by a soft and warm embrace.
"Hill...I, I'm not dead?"
The dazed Main let Hill hold her, then she shuddered, broke free from Hill's arms, and quickly got up from the ground.
The girl immediately ran to the side and picked up her imperial weapon. After holding the romantic turret again, Main felt a little safer and began to look around.
"Just now, was there anyone who saved us?"
"Look there, Myne."
Hill suddenly pointed to the ground. Maine looked in the direction of Hill's finger and found a deep bomb crater on the ground.
Long-range sniping? Yes, I seemed to have heard a gunshot just now.
As a sniper, after observing the bullet crater for a while, Marin roughly estimated the direction of the shooter's shooting and turned to look at the top of the bell tower in the distance.
However, nothing can be seen.
——How could it be possible for Marin to discover the Storm Shadow Thorn so easily when it has activated all its means including optical invisibility and infrared shielding?
"Have you left?"
He muttered to himself. Although he didn't know who saved him, the most urgent thing was to recover the imperial weapon.
Walking to Zanke's head, Maine looked at the eye-shaped imperial weapon [Five-Sighted Universal Observer] that had fallen off his forehead and dropped on the ground. Just as she was bending down to pick it up, she suddenly heard a pleasant male voice behind her.
"It's very rude to take other people's spoils at will, young lady."
"Who is it?!"
Main, who was almost like a frightened bird, pounced forward at the first moment, rolled on the ground, turned over, raised her gun and aimed.
On the other side, Hill also quickly jumped to the front and side of Marin.
"Don't move!"
"Put down the gun!"
"presumptuous!"
Amidst a series of angry shouts, the two girls looked in disbelief at the Storm Shadow Assassin team around them as they suddenly lifted their optical invisibility and revealed their bodies.
Myne and Hill, who had dozens of guns pointed at their heads and green laser dots on their chests, hearts and other vital parts of their bodies to assist in aiming, said: "........."
No, do you want to do this! ?
And having someone point a gun at your head is the most annoying thing - Marin thought to herself with her eyes twitching.
