Chapter 836: Counterattack


    Seeing this scene, Liuli, and the other four individuals were taken aback; the sturdiness of the counterattack shield surpassed their imagination.


    "Daon, continue."


    Liuli''s voice carried a hint of urgency. Once Su Xiao recovered, it would mean their deaths.


    "Give me 5 seconds."


    Daon''s hands trembled. He had pursued attack power excessively, almost neglecting other abilities, which resulted in many drawbacks. As a result, his attack power had reached a terrifying level.


    After five seconds passed, Daon stood up and once again picked up that enormous hammer, charging forward in the same manner as before, lifting the hammer and swinging with all his might.


    The massive hammer fell like a meteor striking the earth.


    Thud!


    The ground beneath Su Xiao''s feet cracked extensively, the counterattack shield was covered in fissures, and blood dripped from Su Xiao''s chin, yet he remained motionless in ce.Several dozen meters away, a stealthy figure appeared, standing on a stone pir, gazing at Su Xiao.


    After the second hammer strike, the counterattack shield around Su Xiao was on the verge of breaking. Along with the bullets and attacks from the stone giant, the guard wouldn''t hold out for much longer.


    "Almost, we can end this nightmare soon."


    Liuli''s breath was somewhat urgent. She couldn''t understand one thing: where did the husky following their opponent disappear to?


    Just five more seconds and Daon would recover. With the remaining durability of the counterattack shield, it wouldn''t be able to withstand a third hammer strike.


    Suddenly, the motionless Su Xiao put away the Dragon-ying sh. A short knife appeared in his hand momentarily, then he retracted it, taking out a crossbow.


    As if receiving some information, Su Xiao put away the crossbow, and a heavy sniper rifle appeared in his hand.


    The barrel slowly lifted as Su Xiao seemed to be gauging the angle.


    Bang!


    The Spider Queen fired a shot, shattering the counterattack shield. A bullet flew directly into Su Xiao''s abdomen.


    "Not good!"


    Liuli''s pupils contracted suddenly, and she instinctively stood up.


    Bang!


    After the gunshot, Liuli was pushed back several meters, thrown by the powerful impact, falling to the ground. Her left arm and a portion of her body shattered, exploding into a mess of flesh.


    While Liuli was sent flying, Su Xiao''s gaze returned to rity. Bubuwang, dozens of meters away, withdrew and no longer transmitted information to Su Xiao.


    As Su Xiao put away the Spider Queen, the Dragon-ying sh appeared in his hand.


    "Block him."


    The female perceptionist stepped back a few paces while Daon lifted the giant hammer and retreated, and the earth-type contract holder stepped forward, his hands emitting a sandy yellow glow.


    Whoosh!


    A bullet shot toward Su Xiao at an incredible speed.


    Su Xiao swung his arm, a resounding crack echoing as he deflected the bullet. He stepped on a puddle of blood on the ground—his own.


    "Here Ie."


    As Su Xiao stepped on the ground, he instantly disappeared from the others, using his blinking ability.


    St.


    Blood sttered as the female perceptions were bisected at the waist. In Su Xiao''s perception, she was more troublesome than Liuli. Her assistance to Liuli had kept Su Xiao under control for so long.


    While ying the female perceptionist, Su Xiao tilted his head, a bullet whizzing past his ear. His short ck hair fluttered as Su Xiao, relying on his reflex speed, miraculously avoided the sniper rifle bullet.


    "Escaped?"


    The Earth-type contract holder was astonished. He was well aware of the speed of his teammate''s bullets and believed dodging such a bullet was impossible.


    In reality, it was quite achievable. With fast reflexes, high agility, and sufficientbat experience, avoiding such bullets wasn''t difficult. Compared to the Ghost Bees of Lanjue, which were more than twice as fast as these bullets, Su Xiao had also dodged them. To him, the sniper''s bullets were inferior to Lanjue''s.


    As he dodged the bullet, Su Xiao swiftly charged toward the muscr man wielding the massive hammer. This guy posed a significant threat; even Su Xiao would be in trouble if attacked.


    Daon''s masseter muscle protruded as he raised the hammer, preparing to strike Su Xiao, who was charging toward him.


    The massive hammer descended, but Su Xiao, in his forward charge, dodged it by a hair''s breadth.


    The longsword thrust forward, surging with cyan steel shadow energy.


    St.


    The longsword pierced through Daon''s chin, exiting through the skull. Just as Su Xiao prepared to deliver a few more blows, Daon''s body copsed, which surprised Su Xiao. He would have thought the opponent was feigning death if he hadn''t received the kill prompt. The opponent didn''t seem like a ''ss cannon'' from his appearance.


    Only the semi-unconscious Liuli and the Earth-type contract holder remained on the field. As for the sniper in the distance, there was no rush to deal with them.


    While finishing off Daon, Su Xiao''s momentum didn''t stop as he charged toward the Earth-type contract holder. He had barely stopped throughout the encounter.


    During his charge, Su Xiao suddenly leaped half a meter high.


    Boom.


    A half-meter-high stone pir rose from the ground. Su Xiaonded perfectly on it, elegant and graceful.


    Squatting on the stone pir, Su Xiao''s leg muscles slightly bulged, and the Dragon-ying sh returned to its sheath.


    Pushing off the pir, Su Xiao dashed toward the Earth-type contract holder like a bullet leaving the barrel.


    With a crash, the stone pir under his feet shattered. In an instant, he had leaped to a position five meters in front of the Earth-type contract holder.


    Seeing this distance, the Earth-type contract holder sighed with relief. He was ready to limit Su Xiao''s speed and then retreat.


    "Ringbreaker Blood de."


    ng.


    More than a dozen blood-red de energies shed toward the Earth-type contract holder. Three stone walls appeared before him, held up by his palm.


    Swish.


    The blood-red de energies cut through the stone walls. After a moment, there were a few heavy thuds behind the walls, which burst, burying the Earth-type contract holder inside, blood seeping from the pile of stones.


    Floating mid-air, Su Xiao formed a shield of 100 points of strength beside him.


    Bang.


    A bullet struck the energy shield, shattering it. The shield''s strength just managed to block the bullet.


    Using the momentum from the bullet, Su Xiaonded behind a weathered stone wall. He sheathed the Dragon-ying sh at his feet and took out the Spider Queen; there were still 8 bullets left in the magazine.


    Su Xiao leaned to the side, with a portion of his upper body exposed from behind the stone wall, aiming the gun. His breathing slowed, and a bullet flew toward him.


    Bang.


    The energy shield blocked the bullet, which broke just as Su Xiao squeezed the trigger. In his sight, the crosshair had already locked onto the enemy 300 meters away.


    The enemy was hidden above a twenty-meter-high stone pir, a good sniper position providing firepower support without exposure to enemy long-range attacks.


    Su Xiao pulled the trigger.


    Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...


    After five shots, the top of the stone pir 300 meters away was smashed, and debris mixed with shattered body parts fell.


    Having done all this, Su Xiao put away the Spider Queen, pulled out the War Dragon sh beside his feet, and spat out blood.


    Su Xiao approached the dazed Liuli. Liuli regained some consciousness. She was just about tomunicate with her teammates using mental linkage when she realized that the link had disappeared.


    Noticing this, Liuli''s eyes dimmed. She looked around and saw a pile of bloody stones and a teammate with a pierced skull crawling on the ground with great difficulty. Only the upper body of the female perceptionist remained.


    Seeing the surviving teammate, Liuli''s eyes became somewhat moist. At that moment, a longsword pierced through the female perceptionist''s chest from top to bottom, prating her heart.


    "No..."


    Liuli wanted to get up, but a part of her left side was shattered, and she couldn''t stand up.


    "Farewell, Little Songstress."


    Before Liuli could say anything, Su Xiao swung his sword, severing Liuli. Despite being a cute girl, her abilities were difficult; she had almost taken Su Xiao''s life.
