Chapter 52 The Floran Colony 7 (2/2)
John lifted his head and analysed them.
All of the enemies were wearing a forest camo Armor with a conspicuous black star on their chest. John was unable to see which Tier the armor was, but he was able to identify the weapons they were using.
[USCM Spit Fire...] John's face became grim. [The advanced Assault Rifle used by the USCM forces. Tier 3 weapon with high fire rate and high penetration... They are well equipped.]
John was also able to identify some of their granades and equipments, including the Teleport Signal Jammer.
John glanced at his PIPS and saw that he was indeed unable to beam back to the ship.
He deeply inhaled and then stopped breathing. His full concentration was on the enemy that was the closest of him.
Bullet Time.
The time around him slowed down by 10 times. He lifted his HEP02 and aimed at the unprotected joint between the Chestguard and the Helmet, right at the neck.
He calmly pressed the trigger...
*Bang*
The energy bullet left the muzzle of the pistol and travelled at a speed faster than sound.
”Argh!” The bullet pierced the neck of the enemy from one side and left at the other. There was no blood splattered because of the high temperature of the bullet that was able to cauterize the wound as it went through.
The guy fell dead on the ground.
”Contact!” The other enemies realized they were being ambushed so they started to fire at the direction from which the energy bullet came.
*Bang, bang, bang...*
They pressed the trigger with determination and the Assault Rifles shot a barrage of fire.
John rolled around to dodge the bullets, but a few of them hit his armor.
”What is th-” Another enemy fell when a grayish light flashed right before his eyes. He didn't even had time to finish speaking when a gray spear pierced his helmet and head.
Blood splattered everywhere.
The 4 remainder enemies fell in panic and started firing everywhere.
Peri jumped from her hiding spot and launched toward the closest enemy.
She waved her hand and the spear that was lodged in one of the soldier's head disappeared, and appeared in her hand.
John looked with a surprised expression when he saw what Peri had done. It was just like magic, but he didn't see any trick involved in that, it really disappeared in one place and appeared in another.
Peri moved like snake between the enemies, they had no chance of fighting back in such a close range against Peri.
”Argh!” The sound of another enemy falling entered the ears of John.
Peri's spear was very sharp, sharp enough to pierce through the armor of the soldiers with no problem.
After the spear penetrated the enemy's heart, she rotated the spear and completely destroyed the heart, giving no chance of recovery to the soldier.
Her entire body was covered in blood and her eyes glinted with hatred and bloodlust.
There were only 3 soldiers left, but they stared blankly at Peri.
They haven't realized the carefully approaching John from behind them and neither Lenny that was taking aim at one of them.
The soldiers were locked at a triangular formation of Peri, John and Lenny.
