Facing the "Sanctuary Force" flickering on the wall and the figure charging at him, Qin Ran showed no panic. His finger pulled the trigger of [Python-W2] again.
Bang!
With the support of the Transcendent-level [Firearms: Light Guns], the revolver's bullet passed the charging figure at an awkward angle and shot into the room behind it.
Clang!

A figure identical to the previous one, clad in armor and flickering with "Sanctuary Force," appeared in Qin Ran's sight.

"Shiqi!"
