Chapter 375: Pincer

POSTED ON APRIL 28, 2023 BY KEN

Just when Fang Linyan successfully escaped to the first floor and was about to run toward the garage, he saw a figure broke in through the window on the sixth floor and jumped down directly. There were 2 small light wing phantoms the back!

In mid-air, this figure brazenly drew his saber. Amidst the dazzling saber light, a saber was struck on the head of Fang Linyan. It was full of murderous intent.

Seeing that she was about to lose Fang Linyan, Shania used an item called “Angel Speed”. It not only increased the movement speed by 20%, but it also increased her jump by 1 meter. She could even double jump with the help of the light wings on the back!

Shania used such expensive items without hesitation, which showed how much she hated Fang Linyan!

Shania usually looked gentle and beautiful, but in fact, that was just on the surface. She was a very paranoid person deep down in her. She would do what she thought was right.

The fact that she died in the hands of Fang Linyan had become a mental obstacle for her who thought highly of herself! It even caused her to suffer from severe depression.

If she didn’t kill Fang Linyan to untie this mental obstacle, she would have trouble sleeping and eating!!

But in the face of her slash with all her strength, Fang Linyan just tilted his body slightly and continued to run away without turning his head.

Shania’s breathing suddenly became rapid. She tilted her wrist slightly to correct the angle of the slash. From her current point of view, she could split the opponent in half from head to toe in the next second.

However, as the saber light struck, Fang Linyan’s figure fluctuated like water ripples. Shania’s slash went through his figure and hit the reception bar next to him.

As sparks splashed everywhere, the marble on the bar counter was split in half with a fierce slash.

At this time, although Fang Linyan didn’t turn his head, he was able to show a middle finger to the rear in a very wretched way, which shows that he is still able to do a job with ease at this time.

In shock and fury, Shania immediately gritted her teeth and chased forward.

But as soon as she rushed out of the hall, she saw a motorcycle rolling in the air and smashing toward her. Because it was thrown at such a fast speed, there was a fierce gale!

With such an extremely vicious blow, Shania could only let out an angry scream and jumped to the side, even though she was extremely unwilling in her mind.

The motorcycle hit the pillar behind her and immediately exploded. Flames and smoke also filled the air.

A burly man with his face covered was standing in the distance. It was Max who threw the motorcycle to intercept Shania, allowing Fang Linyan to escape.

At this time, Fang Linyan had already rushed to a car in front of him, which was driven by the elite mechanical warrant officer. As long as he could get in the car, he could go wherever he wanted!

But at this most critical moment, there was a terrifying blast of a sniper rifle in the distance!

At this moment, Fang Linyan fainted for a moment, then the whole world shook like water waves. He felt very disgusted.

Not only that, but the surroundings were spinning and drifting rapidly, giving him the powerles feeling like he suddenly fell into the water.

There was an indescribably great terrifying feeling of terror in his heart. That was the deepest despair!!

That was the great fear of imminent death!

There was also a fishy smell of rust in his mouth!!

At this time, Fang Linyan used a comprehensive healing potion (small). This potion was worth 2 merit points. Then, he activated [Athena’s Blessing] in an instant.

At this time, Fang Linyan was supposed to be about 6 meters away from the car, but now the car was more than 10 meters away from him!!

It took him 3 seconds to come back to his senses. It turned out that he was headshot and got knockback almost 10 meters away!

Not far away, Max witnessed the whole process of Fang Linyan being headshot. In the blink of an eye, he saw Fang Linyan fly back. Not only that, a cluster of blood mist burst out from her head!

The car window 2 meters away from Fang Linyan’s head seemed to be splashed with blood, making a chain of crackling sounds. Even the car’s alarm was triggered.

After opening [Athena’s Blessing], Fang Linyan saw a series of combat prompts appearing in his retinas:

“You were shot by Contractor CX187’s Ability: [Double Burst].”

“Deduct according to the PVP damage reduction law/deduct according to your own defense/deduct according to the passive damage reduction of the Protector’s Bone Chain.”

“The actual damage you received was 86 points.”

“Your head was severely injured in an instant, and your HP is deducted by more than 1/3 of the total HP.”

“You will fall into a negative state within 5 minutes: Concussion LV3. You will have dizziness, nausea and vomiting sequelae. It will be difficult to perform actions such as aiming. Occasionally, you will lose balance during actions.”

After this series of combat prompts popped up, Fang Linyan couldn’t help but say in anger,

“Koi…… We shall see!”

At this time, there was another sniper shot, and Fang Linyan was shocked. The light on his body flickered, and he was sent back 3 meters away again. Fortunately, the damage this time was absorbed by [Athena’s Blessing]. A bullet could be seen slipping away from his heart.

Not only that, Shania had already chased after him during this moment. As the saber flashed, she launched an arc-shaped blue saber aura from a distance of more than 20 meters.

Wherever the saber aura passed, a fragmented line was slashed on the floor. Even an electric car beside was slashed in half!

If he insisted on getting in the car and fleeing, he would inevitably be pincered by Koi and Shania.

So Fang Linyan did something that no one expected. That was, he took the initiative to pounce toward Shania’s saber that was slashing at him.

The saber aura exploded in the air, but it still failed to break through [Athena’s Blessing]’s defense.

On the contrary, with the thrust from the explosion, Fang Linyan jumped up directly, stretched out his left hand, grabbed the light board on top of the storefront next to him, and pulled. He made a gymnast’s common giant swing action and climbed onto the coffee shop on the second floor.

At this time, Fang Linyan also kicked the light board, and it fell off the shelf with a clatter.

Immediately afterward, he ran for a few steps in a stagger, and he was shot by Koi again, but he managed to jump into the glass window of the coffee shop.

At this time, Fang Linyan was in a desperate situation. He could only return to the SPX Corporation. At least in there, the chance of being attacked by that damned Koi was much less.

Shania had already run under the crashed light board. She had the “Angel Speed” item, so her jumping ability was great.

After jumping up, he used another strange force in the air, and he was about to successfully double jump and climbed to the terrace of the coffee shop.

But at this time, another trash can flew over from the side and smashed hard on Shania’s back, knocking her away. It was Max again.

Max drank the camouflage potion and did not engage in melee combat with Shania, so there would be no Max information in Shania’s battle log.

By the way, how did Koi trace Fang Linyan and Max so accurately?

The problem here was Max.

Team Koi had been conspiring against Team Max before. The plan was to eliminate all of them, so they closely monitored the whereabouts of several key figures in Team Max. Max was no exception.

The way of tracking was that Old Black used the principle of occultism, but he needed to obtain the opponent’s blood, hair, or other body tissues, and the greater the difference between Old Black’s spirit, the more accurate the tracking effect would be.

Unfortunately, Max’s spirit was only 7 points, which was slightly higher than normal, so he was tracked accurately.

If the person being tracked was Fang Linyan, it was unknown whether the voodoo tracking skill could be successful!

However, Koi herself didn’t expect to get a bonus. I was just setting up against Max, but woah! That damn Wrench is there too. Is it still a question to get rid of who first?

In fact, for Koi and Shania at this time, Fang Linyan was a target with a full bar hatred. Once he was spotted, they would definitely kill him regardless of anything.

After Shania was delayed by Max, she hated him to his core of course!

But what she knew better was that once she turned around to deal with Max, she might not be able to kill Fang Linyan. Instead, it might give him a chance to run away.

Because of the news from the team channel, the Boss Licker actually transformed and entered the second mechanical form, so there was no way to get support in a short time.

Therefore, Shania knew that if she jumped again, she would probably be disturbed. Therefore, she simply slashed through the glass wall and rushed in. She went straight to the coffee shop on the second floor from the internal stairs.

At this time, Fang Linyan finally got dozens of seconds of respite. Although he was dizzy and nauseous due to the negative effects of the concussion, his thinking was always clear.

You fucking wanna come up there and chase me?

Hehe, I’ll go down then…..

Fang Linyan already knew Koi’s location, so he specially chose a shooting blind spot on the terrace of the coffee shop, jumped down again, and returned to the first floor.

Then he actually went in through the hole that Shania slashed out before. He seemed to have a sinister plan.

But now Fang Linyan really didn’t have that kind of thought. It was because he saw the 3D modeling blueprint of the building obtained by Max before, thinking that he could escape from the fire exit here to the parking lot on the other side. After that, he could run away from there.

TL: Will his escape plan succeed? He is facing Shania and Koi though…
