Roger was somewhat baffled when Lin Xinghai asked for his gun in addition to fully loading it with armor-piercing bullets.
However, he quickly caught on and understood what Lin Xinghai was planning to do.
“Are you planning to fire two guns at the same time?” Roger said in astonishment.
Dual-wielding was not unheard of among the mercenaries, but those who did it typically opted for hand cannons with lower accuracy. Moreover, this approach wasn’t quite beneficial.
As for one person using two Shredder Rifles, he had never heard of it.
Moreover, what Lin Xinghai intended to do required a nearly inhuman level of skill.
“Yes, is there a better way?” Lin Xinghai nodded as he had already finished loading the incendiary rounds on his end.
Roger hesitated for a moment. His mind raced with numerous theories and examples he could present to convince Lin Xinghai that it wasn’t feasible.
But in the end, he said nothing.
Roger hoped that he was wrong and that Lin Xinghai could create another miracle.
“Be careful,” was all Roger finally said, before he handed over the Shredder Rifle loaded with bullets.
Lin Xinghai held two guns and nodded. Then, he ducked down, using the surrounding buildings as cover, as he quickly approached the battlefield.
“Rog, do you really think he can do it?” Xu Haishui asked.
Lin Xinghai and Roger’s conversation wasn’t whispered. Of course, the others heard it too.
When they couldn’t think of a solution themselves, they wouldn’t dismiss someone else’s method. But having their doubts was inevitable.
“I don’t know.” Roger said honestly.
“If he can really pull it off, I’m willing to step down as team leader.” Xu Haishui declared with a righteous expression.
“Who cares about your captain position?” Wu Yan on the side scoffed and then added, “Some mercenary groups even have two vice leaders.”
After hearing this, Roger and Xu Haishui looked surprised at first. However, after giving it some thought, they figured if Lin Xinghai could really do it, then the condition wasn’t too much to ask. Of course, all these were thoughts for later.
While they were talking, Lin Xinghai was only 100 meters away from the battlefield.
However, Roger and the others discovered that Lin Xinghai did not stop but continued moving forward.
This caused a change in the expressions on their faces.
It was important to note that it was a battlefield involving a mutant zombie. Given the terrifying speed of the mutant zombie, 100 meters was already the limit for a safe distance. If he continued to approach, the risk of being spotted by the zombie was high. A simple sprint from them could close the distance immediately.
Thinking of this, Roger immediately picked up the off-road vehicle’s communication device and shouted, “Leader, Lin Xinghai is approaching the battlefield.”
“What’s going on? Why is he here?” Fang Tianhe asked, having activated the life detector on the mecha, and quickly locked the location of Lin Xinghai.
“He thought of a way to deal with the blood fiend…” Before Roger could finish his sentence, Fang Tianhe had already interrupted him, “Nonsense, what can he do? Take him back quickly.”
When the two were talking, Lin Xinghai was only 50 meters away from the blood fiend. He did not dare to move forward at this time.
50 meters was his limit. Any closer and he would be caught up in the battle.
Moreover, this distance gave him good confidence, so there was no need to risk getting closer.
Lin Xinghai picked a cover spot at random. Taking a deep breath and steadying his emotions, he raised the Shredder Rifles and pulled the triggers.
He fired the shot quickly, barely taking time to aim.
Of course, with a gun in each hand, there was no way to aim. In such a case, it all came down to instinct.
Bang! Bang!
Two gunshots sounded almost at the same time!
The blood fiend was shot again. However, despite the two gunshots, only a wound was incurred on its body.
That was because both bullets were shot at the same spot.
More importantly, the time interval between two bullets hitting the target did not exceed 0.1 seconds.
Boom!
The fierce flames burst forth within the blood fiend, instantly boiling its blood. Under the intense heat, a substantial amount of blood vaporized into mist.
It all happened so suddenly.
Roger, who was about to explain, was stunned. Wu Yan and Xu Haishui were stunned, and all the mercenaries watching the battle were stunned as well.
Even Fang Tianhe and Shen Han, who were operating the mecha and fiercely battling the blood fiend, were stunned.
Everyone could visibly see the blazing fire bursting inside the blood fiend’s body.
The flames were reflected in everyone’s pupils, igniting a spark of hope in their hearts.
While everyone was immersed in shock, excitement, or complicated emotions, the blood fiend reacted swiftly.
It let out a roar of pain; after battling for so long, this was the first time it felt threatened.
The blood fiend quickly locked on Lin Xinghai, who was 50 meters away. It wanted to rush over and trample this tiny human, who could threaten him, to death.
However, Fang Tianhe was no pushover. Although he did not know how Lin Xinghai managed to get the incendiary round into the blood fiend’s body, he understood that this might be the only turning point in the entire battle.
In that instant, he also burst forth with all his power. The mecha’s vibro-blade made a sweeping slash. In conjunction with his Sky Fracture ability, he severed the leg that the blood fiend had stepped forward with.
Then, maneuvering the mecha, he delivered a fierce knee strike. A black light also surfaced on the leg of the mecha, signifying a strike enhanced with the Sky Fracture ability.
Boom!
The blood fiend was knocked back by this blow. Not only could it not get closer to Lin Xinghai, but it was getting further and further away.
Lin Xinghai, who was still a little nervous and apprehensive at first, felt relieved when he witnessed this scene.
Then, he continued firing.
Bang! Bang!
Two more shots were fired. A blazing fire once again burst forth in the blood fiend’s body.
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Next, the rhythmic gunfire continued.
Moreover, as Lin Xinghai gradually became more accustomed to handling dual guns, the frequency of his shooting increased.
More and more clusters of fire began to explode within the blood fiend’s body.
Once the number of fire clusters inside the blood fiend surpassed 10, the accumulation seemed to inflict substantial damage. Due to the intense heat, the surface of its body began to emit a blood mist.
Moreover, there was one detail that both Lin Xinghai and Roger had overlooked. The time it took for the blood fiend to expel the incendiary round from its body wasn’t five seconds but had extended to 10 seconds.
The blood fiend used its blood to push the bullet out of its body.
As its blood pushed the incendiary bullets, it would be continuously burned, greatly reducing the efficacy.
The combination of these factors also resulted in incendiary bullets causing more damage to the blood fiend than they had expected.
Everyone could see that as the blood continued to evaporate, the blood fiend’s form was steadily and continuously shrinking.
