Rattlesnake was level 30. He had a special mental-type bonus template, an Agility talent, and multiple single-target and area-of-effect mental attack skills.
Whether he was dashing through the darkness as an assassin or serving as support to break through enemy lines on the front, he was a formidable fighter. But he also had the weakness common to most mental-type specialists: he was physically frail.
Knowing his own weaknesses well, Rattlesnake immediately attacked Bai Fu when he failed to get the answer he wanted from her.
An invisible pressure swept over the sand beneath the night sky, carving a conspicuous furrow through the fine grains.
The mental shock was simply too fast. Even though Bai Fu had been prepared, she still couldn't dodge it.
It was as if a bomb had exploded deep inside her brain.
The pain was so intense it felt as though a heavy tank had run her over. It assaulted Bai Fu's nerves, and her vision and hearing were both reduced to almost nothing. She nearly fell to the ground.
Then came the game's notification sounds.
[You have suffered a mental shock. HP -109] [You have entered a brief [Stun] state]
Rattlesnake's mental attack bypassed the Spiritual Energy Shield and struck Bai Fu directly. The damage was over 100—her highest single hit in recent days.
That showed just how troublesome mental-type Esper abilities could be.
Seeing Bai Fu go still, Rattlesnake smiled with relief beneath his mask.
"You don't look like an ordinary person, but no matter what tricks you have up your sleeve, you can't use them when faced with my mental abilities!"
He panted a few times.
To make sure that single attack would rob Bai Fu of her ability to fight, he had spent a considerable amount of stamina and mental energy
