Lily steadily caught the grenade launcher thrown by C2.
Surprise Motherfucker!
With her finger on the trigger, C2 had already broken free from the control of Combat Etiquette, and the other five Mutants also realized the seriousness of the problem.
Holy crap!
"C2, you betrayed us!"
"Are you crazy?"
"Get out of the way!"
The tables had turned. This time, it was the Mutants who were panicking, and the players and Shino showed surprised expressions.
Unlike last time, when Lily pulled the trigger, no one came forward to stop her.
With a slight vibration of the launcher, an armor-piercing round flew out of the thick barrel, hitting the strongest C3 directly.
C3 had no time to dodge. He let out a scream, and damage numbers constantly floated above his head.
[You dealt 76 critical damage to C3!]
[You dealt a crippling blow to C3! C3 is now slightly crippled!]
[C3 is bleeding, losing 2 HP per second!]
C3 was blasted directly backward by the armor-piercing round, knocking C1 next to him to the ground. As he flew, a large mouthful of blood spewed from his throat, and he looked even more miserable than Inoue.
No, how can I die so easily here!
In C3's eyes, besides pain, there was deep unwillingness. With a distorted face, he struggled to get up from the ground, but just then, a second grenade flew out of the launcher's barrel, still targeting C3, oh, and C1, who had been knocked down by C3.
Boom!
This one was a high-explosive round. The moment it hit, both C3 and C1 were blown away. C1 was particularly unlucky, his arm was blown off.
Before the blown-off arm could even land, Lily pressed the trigger a third time. This shot still hit C3. The grenade exploded, and C3's body immediately burst into flames.
Under the burning flames, C3 only screamed twice before completely falling silent.
Three consecutive shots: armor-piercing, high-explosive, incendiary, all in one smooth motion!
A crisp, pleasant notification sound rang in Lily's ears.
[You killed C3, 100% contribution, gained 6000 experience points after level difference correction]
"Hiss—"
All the surrounding players were stunned. Although they had long known through various channels that Lily was very strong, they still hadn't expected her to be this strong.
Is this the strength an NPC in a hidden storyline should have?
It's too exaggerated!
The five remaining Mutants looked at C3's charred corpse, no longer in the mood to blame C2 for his huge mistake. They only felt a chill in their limbs.
Not long ago, C3 had said that with their combined strength, they might just survive Lily. Who would have thought that C3 would become a corpse just a few minutes later?
How are they supposed to play now?
"C6, has the message been sent back?"
"Almost, almost!"
C6 was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, terrified that Lily would fire a round at him at this moment, sending him and the car flying into the sky.
The grenade launcher he threw was a heavy one, with a drum capacity of 30 rounds. Although the drum wasn't full at the time, there were at least ten grenades left inside.
This time, his worry was unnecessary; Lily had no intention of attacking C6.
Of course, she wasn't attacking C6 simply because she was afraid of damaging the car C6 was in. She had long wanted her own military vehicle. Buying one would be a bit painful financially, and after buying the car, she wouldn't be able to customize power armor for Anya.
Now, it was great. The people from the Truth Society were giving her experience and a car. They were practically living Bodhisattvas.
"Stop him, quick, C4, C5, forget about those rabble, we must cover C6 now, let him send back what happened here!"
C2, still intact, shouted.
C4 and C5 looked at C2 with strange eyes. Damn it, if you hadn't thrown the grenade launcher to Lily, would the situation have turned out like this?
They suspected C2 wanted to harm them, but one thing C2 said was right: they had to cover C6 now.
As for C1, whose arm was blown off...
They just turned to look and found a grenade had hit C1's head.
[You killed C1, 100% contribution, gained 5000 experience points after level difference correction]
Just kill them!
"Close quarters, as long as we get close, there's nothing to fear!"
But how could Shino, who had been hiding in the shadows, easily give C4 and C5 a chance to get close? She drew her gun and fired. While those special incendiary rounds weren't enough to instantly kill Mutants, they were more than sufficient to restrict them from getting close to Lily.
Damn it!
C4 and C5 were furious but helpless.
Fortunately, C2 didn't kick them while they were down this time, but instead kept firing at Lily, trying to stop her from using the grenade launcher.
But Lily, who was already in a killing frenzy, didn't care about those bullets. Even if she was hit in a more vulnerable spot, she would only lose a few HP, not even a noticeable wound would appear, so what was there to worry about?
She walked through the center of the battlefield, unhurriedly, unfazed by the crossfire from both Shino and the Mutants, as if she wasn't there to fight, but rather to take a stroll after dinner.
However, with the previous experience, no one dared to underestimate her now.
She wasn't in a hurry. She only pulled the trigger after aiming, trying to maximize the effect of each grenade.
For a moment, she displayed a terrifying suppressive force, like a Tyrant using a grenade launcher to beat down Jill.
