Overbearing Ability!

"Pfft, pfft!"

"Pfft!"

Flames burst from the muzzle!

Two bullets struck Ying Zi'an in the chest, while the third pierced through his head!

"Idiot..."

A Hao looked disdainfully at Ying Zi'an, who had fallen to the ground and was twitching nonstop.

"[Sharp Claw], Silver Grade. You leveled up twice and now think you're invincible? How naive..."

A blood-red Treasure Chest materialized out of thin air and landed by A Hao's feet.

Lu Li knew that this was the reward for an Overlevel Kill.

While the Overlevel Kill mechanic was active, Players outside the Ranking List who killed Players on the energy-level rankings could obtain a Slaughter Chest!

Likewise, lower-level Players on the Ranking List could obtain a Slaughter Chest by killing higher-level Players!

Tian Yuhao looked at the Treasure Chest by his feet in delighted surprise and flattered A Hao.

"As expected of my uncle. Three shots, and you took down the strongest man at the top of the Ranking List!"

A Hao removed the magazine and checked the remaining ammunition before replying calmly.

"The Mozambique Drill is specifically for dealing with fast-moving targets. Three bullets left. That should be enough."

With that, he shoved the magazine back in and aimed at Lu Li in the distance.

As Tian Yuhao watched the scene unfold, a sickly anticipation appeared in his eyes.

"Lu Li, if you hand over all your good stuff now and kneel to kowtow to us three times, my uncle might consider sparing your life."

Hearing this, A Hao gave his nephew a complicated look.

On the way here, Tian Yuhao had clearly said that Lu Li's ability was rather strange and that they needed to be cautious.

Why had he suddenly become so fearless now?

Could it be because he had seen him kill someone?

Lu Li's face darkened at Tian Yuhao's taunts, and killing intent gradually surfaced in his eyes.

"Tian Yuhao, what makes you think you can kill me?"

"What makes me think so?"

Tian Yuhao felt as though he had just heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Hahahaha! Lu Li, were you scared stupid?"

"You really think you're invincible just because some item let you learn the monsters' weaknesses?"

"The ability you awakened is only Black Iron Grade [Scout]! Do you think you can withstand three shots from my uncle?"

"An item?" Lu Li paused slightly before immediately realizing that Tian Yuhao had probably misunderstood something.

He knew the weaknesses of all kinds of monsters because he had lived through this once before.

But in Tian Yuhao's eyes, it had become a lucky coincidence, as though he had obtained some special item.

Lu Li naturally couldn't be bothered to explain.

He merely narrowed his eyes and provoked the Scarred Bald Man. "Try me."

The moment his words fell, the gun in the Scarred Bald Man's hand fired!

Three shots in rapid succession, the bullets screaming through the air like Death's sweeping scythe!!

Yet that scythe failed to strike its target!

More precisely, it failed to hit Lu Li!

The bullets struck a monster—a monster that had appeared out of thin air!

"Blade Mantis?!"

Tian Yuhao's eyes went wide as he stared incredulously at the scene in the distance.

Right in front of Lu Li, a pitch-black Blade Mantis had appeared out of nowhere!

All three fired bullets had struck the mantis's body.

"Tian Yuhao, it's time for you to die!"

In the blink of an eye, the gray-black mantis and Lu Li moved!

One to the left and one to the right, they charged toward Tian Yuhao along separate paths!

"Uncle, save me!"

Tian Yuhao had never expected the situation to reverse so suddenly. Terrified out of his wits, he fled in a panic, clutching his head.

Compared to his nephew's panic, A Hao was clearly much calmer.

Red mist spread around him, and his speed abruptly surged!

In A Hao's eyes, the Blade Mantis that had appeared out of thin air was clearly a hundred times more dangerous than the unarmed Lu Li.

So he chose to stop the Blade Mantis first!

But what A Hao didn't know was that Lu Li had already guessed his intentions.

Just as A Hao was about to collide with the Blade Mantis, Lu Li's thoughts shifted.

[Soul Soldier] recalled.

[Swift] (Silver) activated!

A Hao lunged hard at nothing but air.

Meanwhile, Lu Li had already caught up with Tian Yuhao.

[Mighty Strength] (Silver) activated!

[Blade Arm] (Platinum) activated!

His previously harmless right hand instantly transformed into a sharp blade. Empowered by Platinum Rank, it emitted an intense chill!

"Die!"

The blade carried his fury as it slashed viciously into Tian Yuhao's back.

Tian Yuhao screamed and crashed to the ground.

"Lu Li, Lu Li, I was wrong! Don't kill me, don't kill me!"

Tears and snot streamed down Tian Yuhao's face as he writhed on the ground like a maggot.

Seeing this, A Hao immediately shouted and turned toward Lu Li.

"Lu Li, stop right now!!"

But how could Lu Li possibly go easy on him at a time like this?

He stepped forward, raised his hand, and brought the blade down, instantly ending Tian Yuhao's life!

The death of his nephew made A Hao's eyes split with rage.

"Ahhh! Lu Li, I'll kill you!!"

The strange red mist around him churned wildly, and A Hao's speed increased once more.

Lu Li frowned. Rather than confront him head-on, he rapidly retreated and summoned the Soul Soldier again.

Lu Li had seen the Scarred Bald Man's ability in his previous life.

It was a berserk ability similar to that of a berserker.

When activated, it could block a Player's perception of pain and drastically enhance their physical attributes.

It was an enhancement talent that offered both speed and strength.

That was why Lu Li had summoned the Soul Soldier to contend with him instead of fighting personally.

A Hao looked at the gray-black mantis that had appeared before him again, a savage grin spreading across his face.

Faced with the descending blade, not only did he refuse to dodge, he actually leaned into it!

Blood splattered everywhere, and the red mist around him thickened once more!

"Anything that can't kill me will only make me stronger!"

A Hao thrust out both hands, grabbing the mantis's arms from either side before violently tearing them apart!

The Lv.2 Mantis Soul Soldier instantly shattered, turning into wisps of black mist.

"Is that all?!"

A Hao roared, his aura as arrogant as a fierce tiger's.

However, the arrogant expression did not remain on his scarred face for long.

Taking advantage of the opening while A Hao tore apart the Soul Soldier, Lu Li had already retreated far enough away.

Electric arcs now churned in his palm.

"Anything that can't kill you will make you stronger? Damn, you're pretty inspirational!"

[Lightning Arrow] (Diamond) activated!

A thumb-thick arc of electricity surged wildly toward the Scarred Bald Man like a frenzied dragon!

Compared to Zhao Hui's indiscriminate bombardment, Lu Li's control over Lightning Arrow could only be described as precise strikes.

Nearly every bolt of lightning struck the Scarred Bald Man's bald head with perfect accuracy!

Under such circumstances, A Hao could forget about killing Lu Li.

He could barely even take half a step forward.

However, Lu Li also couldn't kill A Hao immediately.

The strange red mist around his opponent seemed capable of reducing lightning damage.

The more Lightning Arrows struck him, the stronger A Hao's ability's Amplify became.

This was not good.

Lu Li frowned. He hadn't expected A Hao's ability to be so Overbearing.

"Lu Li!!"

As if sensing Lu Li's thoughts, A Hao actually laughed amid the bombardment of Lightning Arrows.

"You can't kill me!!!"

With a flip of his hand, he took out ten blood-red Origin Crystals!

In an instant, he crushed and absorbed them all!

A full 200 experience points caused A Hao's level to soar!

The Ranking List changed once again—

[Congratulations to Player Chen Hao for becoming the first Player in the world to reach Lv.4. Reward: Iron-Tier Upgrade Chest ×7!]
