Chapter 47 (1/2)
Qin Feng’s body flickered, and bright light poured out of his eyes!
“Perception? Hehe!”
Qin Feng was an Ancient Warrior in his previous life. So, his first response when fighting against a gunner was to sneak up to the enemy and decapitate him.
But the gunner’s mindless prattling reminded him that he had another identity – an ability user!
Why did he even have to fight the other guy like this?
Sometimes, having lots of experience could turn out to be detrimental.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Another series of powerful blasts ensued!
He Li unleashed his strength again. In reality, he looked terrible, was panting heavily, and his forehead was drenched in sweat.
Even with the darkness confining him, He Li could sense that Qin Feng was only a G7-tier aptitude user. The weapon Qin Feng had, however, was extremely potent, which was why He Li didn’t dare to get any closer.
One of the gunner’s outstanding problems was that weapons were a hassle to lug around. Not only that, but ammunition was also limited. And here, He Li was running low on ammo.
It was then that He Li noticed that Qin Feng was entirely still. The darkness that had covered his eyes had dispersed as well, and he could finally see.
The lights hanging from the ruined ceiling of the laboratory were flickering on and off, with the frayed wires crackling and zapping in bluish-white light.
“Did I guess it right? His perception was exhausted?” He Li was pleased. “But this kid’s ability was not bad, after all. I’ve never seen anything like it! I might as well hand him over to the deputy mayor. We’ll just have to conduct the experiment ourselves!”
He Li grinned at those thoughts.
Hidden in the shadows, Qin Feng moved stealthily and steadily towards He Li, looking for a favorable position to strike.
Suddenly, everything slowed down; his perception exploded into action!
“Hellfire!”
Furious black flames twirled like a whirlwind and poured down from up high!
He Li was caught off-guard. It was all but too late for him to try and make a run for it!
“AHHHHHHHHHHH!” He Li screamed in agony as flames overwhelmed him. He thrashed wildly, but the fire followed him, burning away every inch of his flesh with no respite and leaving no part untouched.
He Li had literally become a human torch.
After a while, the screaming fizzled out into a croak, then a wheezing hiss. His struggle gradually came to a stop, and he collapsed with a thud!
“Extinguish!” Qin Feng waved his hand, and the black flames went out.
He Li’s body had been burnt beyond recognition. Only a completely charred lump of flesh remained.
Just like that, an F-tier gunner had been put to death in what was left of an advanced laboratory.
It was over, for now at least.
A rush of lethargy suddenly flooded Qin Feng’s mind and body.
“Chirp!” Xiaobai jumped out of a corner. Qin Feng had disallowed it to participate in the fight, and when the little creature saw the wounds that riddled Qin Feng’s body, it leaped onto his shoulder and licked his face.
“Aww… stop messing about, Xiaobai!” Qin Feng lovingly stroked Xiaobai, which was covered in a layer of dust.
Turning around, Qin Feng held back his smile and approached He Li’s body.
