Just like before, Feng Qianzhan had finally dodged the shot fired directly at his heart, only to send his left arm straight into the bullet's path!
Clang!
Another muffled sound of flesh tearing echoed through the upper space above the Exotic Beast Forest.
"Ah!" Another uncontrollable scream burst from Feng Qianzhan's mouth.
His left arm was directly blasted into a cloud of blood mist by the Sniper Rifle bullet! From his fingertips to the glenoid cavity connecting his left shoulder and arm, everything had been pulverized into mush! In less than two seconds, Feng Qianzhan had lost both his arms.
His body suddenly lost its balance, and he nearly could not even remain standing.
After barely steadying himself, he stood in midair and glared ahead.
The person lying on the ground with a Sniper Rifle propped up, that fluffy knit cap on her head was so white it was blinding—so white that it felt like a mocking humiliation.
Feng Qianzhan understood at once.
Wasn't this the Ordinary Person in this squad who had absolutely no Mental Strength?!
She was clearly the first one he had "taken care of," yet she was not dead?! What enraged Feng Qianzhan even more was that this Ordinary Person, facing a Gene Evolution powerhouse at Mental Strength Rank B Peak like himself, was not even wearing an Ability Defense Helmet worth tens of millions! Who was she looking down on?! This useless trash, no better than pigs and dogs, actually dared to ambush him!
Feng Qianzhan was so furious his lungs practically exploded! With a shout, his Mental Strength, stimulated by the intense pain, surged out even more vigorously!
He was going to completely control that person lying on the ground with the Sniper Rifle!
He would make her beg for life but be unable to live, beg for death but be unable to die! He would let these pig-and-dog Ordinary People know who their master truly was! Nearby, Ye Shijie had lost his Ability Defense Helmet and was struck by Feng Qianzhan's indiscriminate Mental Strength Attack. Blood flowed from his seven orifices, and even his Mental Strength level dropped by a rank.
Fortunately, the Land of the Far North had extremely powerful Magnetic Interference. Feng Qianzhan's Mental Attack did not kill Ye Shijie outright, only worsening his injuries.
But after launching his Mental Attack, Feng Qianzhan felt no joy at victory.
He discovered in shock that when his Mental Strength touched the Sniper Rifle shooter opposite him—the one without any Mental Strength at all—it had completely failed to achieve the effect he had expected.
In the past, when facing Ordinary People without Mental Strength, all he needed was a glance to make them die without a sound.
This Time, however, it was as if he had run into a rock—no, he had kicked an iron plate! The other side was indeed an Ordinary Person without any Mental Strength, but he had killed so many Ordinary People. How could someone like her exist, completely unmoved by a Mental Strength Attack?!
He simply could not understand why this was happening.
He sensed again and again. The other side truly had not a trace of Mental Strength, nor any sign of Gene Evolution.
Nor was she some overwhelmingly powerful Mental Strength Expert able to block his Mental Attack.
Because even when facing a Mental Strength Expert of a higher rank than himself, it was not like this.
During his years as an assassin, he had once encountered an expert whose Mental Strength was as vast as the sea.
The kind of being who could crush you with incomparably powerful Mental Strength with a single glance, leaving you without even the slightest desire to resist.
All you could do was surrender and let others slaughter you as they pleased.
Fortunately, that expert was not a bloodthirsty person, so he had escaped disaster.
Yet the scene from back then remained deeply etched in his memory, almost carved into his genes.
Comparing it now, he knew this was not that kind of situation.
She was not some hidden big shot.
However... Feng Qianzhan's pupils suddenly contracted.
Then she must be carrying Defense Equipment even more powerful than that Supernatural Helmet! A trace of greed flashed uncontrollably through his eyes.
The person holding the Sniper Rifle opposite him had exactly the same aura as those Ordinary People who completely lacked Mental Strength.
According to the intelligence clues he had obtained, she was an Ordinary Person whose genes could not evolve at all.
He could even feel that if he had a gun in hand, he could definitely kill her!
At that moment, he somewhat regretted throwing away the two Submachine Guns he had seized earlier, somewhere he did not know...
Otherwise, he could have taken care of her instantly.
Xia Chujian had no reaction at all. She had no idea that the enemy opposite her had just attacked her with his most powerful Mental Strength.
She merely aimed at Feng Qianzhan once more with a touch of indignant embarrassment, intending to keep firing.
The more Feng Qianzhan sensed, the more certain he became that this person before him, who lacked even a shred of Mental Strength, was truly unmoved by his Rank B Peak Mental Strength.
Not only that, although he could clearly see himself being targeted by her Sniper Rifle, his danger sense still showed no reaction whatsoever.
He could not wait any longer. He had to act personally and cut off this person's head! "I want your life!" Feng Qianzhan shouted.
He stomped his left foot against the ground. His entire body shot straight up like a cannonball, lunging fiercely toward Xia Chujian.
As Feng Qianzhan lunged, he continued launching even more violent Mental Strength Attacks at Xia Chujian.
Unfortunately, due to the powerful magnetic field here, Feng Qianzhan could not fully display the bearing of a Mental Strength Expert at Rank B Peak.
His speed was not as fast as it had been in Mulan City.
But he was still much faster than an ordinary person. The distance of over a hundred meters vanished in the blink of an eye as he pounced over.
Xia Chujian was dumbfounded.
Was he planning a "suicide-style" attack against her? She had no time to aim. Her finger rapidly squeezed the trigger, acting entirely on instinct. She did not even remove the magazine, firing the Judicator No. 7 Sniper Rifle almost like a Submachine Gun!
Feng Qianzhan had originally thought to himself that he was now a Mental Strength Expert at Rank B Peak and was facing that person head-on.
As long as he used his powerful Mental Strength to alter the kinetic energy of her bullets, he could change their direction! After all, this was something he had done many times when facing Ordinary People wielding Conventional Weapons.
This was also why the vast majority of Mental Strength Experts looked down on Conventional Thermal Weapons.
Just think about it: if the bullets you fired could be controlled by your opponent and turned around to attack you, what use were Conventional Thermal Weapons?! Of course, large-scale military combat was an exception.
In Military hands, Conventional Thermal Weapons still possessed great deterrent power.
A Mental Strength Expert could control one gun, ten guns, even a hundred guns—but could they control a thousand, ten thousand, or even a hundred thousand, a million, ten million, hundreds of millions of guns?! Of course not! Therefore, no matter how powerful a Mental Strength Expert was, they would not be foolish enough to oppose the Military.
But against Ordinary People holding guns, they were existences that could crush them with ease.
However, Feng Qianzhan was wrong again.
Not only did the powerful Magnetic Interference here prevent him from exerting as much Mental Strength as he had anticipated.
More importantly, the bullets fired by his opponent were just like she herself was—Mental Strength had absolutely no effect on them! Clang! Clang! After the two gunshots, even after Feng Qianzhan exhausted all his Rank B Peak Mental Strength, he still could not alter the kinetic energy of the two Sniper Rifle bullets fired at him. Instead, both his lower legs exploded into clouds of blood mist in midair.
