Luo Fan forcibly locked onto the Mantis Fierce Beast with the Weird Gun.
Almost simultaneously, the Weird Gun's curse activated.
Although it was a Fourth-Tier Fierce Beast, the mantis was only the size of a hunting dog, so the effect triggered stole 30% of its movement speed and gave it to Luo Fan.
Feeling the 30% movement speed boost he had gained from the Fourth-Tier Fierce Beast, Luo Fan immediately pulled back at full speed.
Originally, Luo Fan had been far slower than the mantis.
But with one slowing down and the other speeding up, the gap between them was no longer that large.
As he retreated, he saw the mantis's swift blade slash viciously at him again.
Luo Fan reflexively raised the Weird Gun in his hand to block.
With a crack, the +8-enhanced Weird Gun proved utterly fragile against the mantis's swift blade, which sliced straight through its barrel.
"This..." Watching half of his sniper rifle's barrel fall to the ground, Luo Fan's expression turned extremely grim.
This was the first time his Weird Gun had suffered such severe damage since he had acquired it.

Mimicry!
Watching the mantis charge at him again with erratic speed, Luo Fan made no attempt
