Chapter 138 A Wild Black Phantom 2 (1/2)
”Airstrike!”
Stardragon's missile-carrying vehicles fired mercilessly at the Germinal troops. The missiles approached with high-pitched screeches, adding to the heavy atmosphere
Ugar did not panic; he commanded the troops to close up the gaps in their formation, with the vehicles carrying multi-barreled machine guns at the front, forming an assault formation. This reduced the area of target, and the machine guns destroyed all the missiles in the area in midair, forming a vacuum, allowing the troops to smoothly sail through the explosion waves.
Huang Qiuming paused.
He had just received news that the battle at Tedramira River was at a heated stage; the strategic team had primarily marked out a few locations where Germinal teams could have gathered. The strategic team advised him to change from the original plan to use Plan B. Huang Qiuming made some rearrangements and instructed the interception ring to leave a gap.
At the same time, Rainy Kim and the others made it to the front line. Large number of soldiers gathered with proper attire and equipment, armored vehicles had their engines running, and elite soldiers were standing by.
”How are we going to join in the fight?” Sleepy Winter asked helplessly.
Rainy Kim frowned and thought for a while before nodding. ”I don't know.”
Then why are you nodding‽ Sleepy Winter wanted to bang his head against the floor.
Twinkle Fried Rice suddenly pointed to the battlefield and shouted, ”Someone is coming! Oh sh*t! It looks like a high-level player!”
The other two turned to look in the same direction. They watched as a buff man led a team of well-armed soldiers on heavy-armored motorbikes to separate from the main troop. They sped toward the Stardragon base while smoothly dodging all the bullets.
…
Mihawks dodged a series of attacks on his heavy-armored bike, but he inadvertently triggered a mine, and his bike was blown apart. He began to run, at a speed almost as fast as the motorbikes, through the bullets. His task was to deliver the bomb that he was carrying to the Stardragon base.
Superhumans usually fought in assault teams on the battlefields. Mihawks could see that the enemies had sent their elite teams toward them.
He concentrated expressionlessly and adjusted his inner energy to save up for later.
Suddenly, Mihawks instinctively felt that there was imminent danger, he reacted extremely quickly, pushed hard with his legs, and was going to change direction.
But he was not fast enough.
A bullet with blue light trailing behind it hit Mihawks' neck from the side and caused a huge splatter of blood. He was critically injured. He groaned and spat out mouthfuls of blood. There was absolutely no cover on the fields; his only choice was to keep running forward, but his wound caused him to slow down significantly.
A combat fighter, who could fight through gunfire, had been critically injured by one shot!
Huang Qiuming was shocked.
”That was not us. Who's the sniper‽”
He remembered the suspicious target that had been detected at the start and felt that this shot seems really familiar. He pondered for two seconds, and his eyes widened.
Only a monster sniper could critically damage a superhuman—the Black Phantom that only recently had become involved in underground activities.
Bullet with blue light, it must be him!
What is he doing here? Why help us?
”Commander, what do we do now?” the vice-captain asked.
Huang Qiuming considered and made up his mind decisively ”He doesn't look like enemy. Don't care about him; focus on fighting Germinal.”
Usually, snipers' skills would be of very limited use in this kind of battle, but when super snipers like Black Phantom came into the picture, it would be a completely different story.
The Stardragon did not know why Black Phantom was helping them, but needless to say, this helped them greatly!
…
Ugar was furious.
”One shot to critically injure Mihawks, that must be that damned Black Phantom! Not long ago, he got Freire's team too. This monster must have joined the fight at Stardragon's request!
Ugar felt immense pressure when he thought of Black Phantom's kill statistics that had been circulating on the Dark Web. He had been crowned a 'Superhuman killer'—way too dangerous. Even though Ugar was stronger than Mihawks, he did not want to have a taste of Black Phantom's strength.
Mistaking Han Xiao for someone on Stardragon's side, Ugar angrily commanded, ”Team 3, locate and terminate the sniper. Take the test subjects with you; you must at least divert his attention away from us!”
