In the dark sewer, Dai Liang hissed at Gong Yan who was following behind him.
He needs an extremely quiet environment so that he can use his ears to hear the sounds of those evil creatures in action.
This world really doesn't look too good. As usual, the game should directly judge the confrontation between its own attributes and the environment. There may also be an intervening influence of a fluctuation value. If the judgment is passed, the white circle or outline outline of the target will be directly displayed on the screen.
come out.
But here... there is no system help and no screen display.
[It feels like time travel...]
Dai Lian cursed in his heart, his ears picking up all the slightest movements like sonar.
The sound of steel bars bouncing with heat and contraction... the sound of cold water vapor condensing into beads and falling down...
The natural and disorderly sounds need to be filtered first, and the rest is the purposeful and regular movement of those anti-entropic bodies!
[You are using your insight ability to explore the environment...]
Gong Yan followed closely behind, just walking as slowly as possible.
Cold objects do not have the ripples of thoughts; only living creatures have ripples that escape through the collective nervous tissue.
Cold, hungry...
In her world, all the emotional fluctuations are like a background that does not affect the vision, surrounding all living bodies.
However, it is still a little difficult for her to receive this information now. This kind of instinct is not skilled, and it is only possible to perceive it a little bit under the premise of extreme concentration...
"Shua~"
The two men moved in unison, raising their hands and weapons almost at the same time.
Dai Lian switched to a short bow, but Gong Yan, who had no basic skills, undoubtedly used a hand crossbow to make it easier to get started in the early stages.
"call out!"
"call out!"
Two arrows were fired one after another, one missed...and the other missed.
There is an irregular delay in the pop-up of combat information, which makes it difficult for players to instantly determine whether their actions are effective, but the sound of the arrow hitting the ground is obviously different from the sound of the arrow hitting the ground.
Dai Lian, who was focused on fighting, could still judge the situation.
In a dark environment, even if he has level 1 long-range weapon specialization, Dai Lian cannot always hit the target, let alone the target is a living creature.
Fortunately, these stupid little things lost their awe for large creatures and their perception of fear. When they sensed the direction of the attack, they actually launched a charge.
"Put it closer and hit."
The number of targets is not that large, there are about a dozen of them among the chaotic movements.
Without the control of the "king", they no longer act in unison, which gives them the opportunity to attack separately.
"Yeah~" Gong Yan agreed softly.
She is not particularly keen on fighting, but it is obviously impossible to have fun in this world without using your own abilities.
If given the chance, she wouldn't mind honing her skills without losing anything.
Quickly loading the crossbow, Gong Yan looked calm.
[A little closer, a little closer.]
Gong Yan held up the crossbow with both hands and tried to stabilize the trajectory as much as possible, thinking silently in his heart.
3…
2……
1……
shoot!
"call out!"
"call out!"
Dai Lian, who once again shot arrows almost at the same time, felt a little happy. Even without communication, this kind of tacit cooperation in fighting was still refreshing.
Not like that reckless man Kuang Xin!
But it seems that I feel quite safe with that reckless man in front...
[Successfully hits a small moving target, long-range weapon proficiency experience +2.]
[Hit the target and cause 3 points of piercing damage to the target! 】
The bow string is not strong enough, the bow is not strong enough, the arrow is not sharp enough...
Their weapons are naturally not as reliable as Baie's military products.
But it doesn't matter, the large bundle of "arrows" each carries behind them is their ample ammunition depot!
When the distance was close enough, Gong Yan and Dai Lian maintained a steady rhythm while shooting and retreating.
Without the melee strength of the eldest lady from the Arbitration Institute, they would not dare to let these little things maintain their numerical advantage and get close to them completely. Once they get close, they will crawl up crazily along their calves, trouser legs, etc., and they will be able to do so within a few breaths.
They hang all over the human body, and they have sharp teeth and claws. Whether they tear the skin or tear the clothes and hang them there, it is difficult to shake them off by struggling.
The attack power of these little creatures is indeed not high individually, but their attack frequency is extremely high. In groups, Dai Lian and Gong Yan do not want to use their bodies to feed their hungry esophagus.
Kite is the only option.
"call out!"
"call out!"
The two men retreated quickly, and their hands never stopped moving. The knowledge taught by adults in pistol shooting can also guide their combat, but they need actual combat to turn it into experience.
There are more than a dozen targets, but don't be greedy. Just aim at the one you've targeted as much as possible. If you shoot too many, you'll always have a chance.
It would be foolish to rely on the large number of targets and just shoot at densely packed areas and hope to fight with luck.
Dai Lian has level 1 long-range weapon specialization, and his hit rate is at least twice that of Gong Yan.
Gong Yan is so dexterous that she can hold dozens of homemade arrows in her small palm, and her arrow-raising movements are dazzling. Even a small hand crossbow can shoot at a rate that is not inferior to that of a pistol.
[Successfully hit several small moving targets, light firearm proficiency experience +8.]
[Successfully hit several small moving targets, light firearm proficiency experience +14.]
The sound of breaking wind is transmitted in the pipe, mixed in the wind and spreads far away...
"You said you were going to track down the whereabouts of the person you were shielding, why are you still so stubborn?" the strong man accused with a voice like stone, with some dissatisfaction.
"Stop talking~" Franka raised her index finger between her plump and translucent lips, "Listen..."
"Hey~"
"Hey~"
"Hey~"
A faint whistling vibration came through the air. The strong man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was a little surprised, "When did you find out?"
Franka had a smile on her face, not caring, "You are too impatient now, and of course you have lost your sensitivity to the environment."
He deliberately made his voice thicker and sounded mature, "I'm just trying to exercise your patience...and these mice are also related to our mission. Didn't you say before that we should leave it to ordinary people to treat us well?"
Impression? Isn’t it natural to do something good for them? Maybe seeing us like this, those mutants and devil believers hiding in the dark will come out and surrender?"
The strong man snorted coldly, "Innocent!"
"Innocence is my reward~" Franka's eyes flickered, and she looked towards the direction of the sound with interest, "How about it? Do you want to go take a look? Maybe it has something to do with the direction of our investigation?"
"..." The strong man walked away without saying a word.
"Tsundere~" Franka hummed a melodious tune, clasping her hands behind her back and catching up lightly.
…
[Hit the target with a melee attack, combat mastery experience +18.]
[The battle is over, gain 15 points of combat experience.]
[You killed a plague rat, and the progress of "Side Mission - Clearing Out the Rat Swarm" is 10/100. 】
"Finally beaten to death..." Dai Lian wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was not the handsome muscular gorilla of Kuang Xin. He was panting under the intense physical labor. He covered his arms and felt a bit sadistic and happy, "
He also lost 3 points of blood..."
Bows and arrows are just a means to reduce the status of plague rats. In the end, you have to rely on... your feet to end the battle.
After being hit by long-range kites from bows and arrows, they lost their mobility and the numerical advantage of a collective attack. The feet were the last resort for the two of them.
Anyway, the adults only asked them to kill the mice in a "dark environment", and did not say that they must rely entirely on bows and arrows to complete the killing.
Trampling the last one to death is a bit of whack-a-mole fun.
Gong Yan used a small shovel...
"I don't know why the adults have to let us clean these little things at night..." Dai Lian frowned and didn't understand after taking a rest. There was no one in the sewer during the day, and there was still some scattered light during the day.
As for the vision being so limited.
Gong Yan just pursed her lips and smiled, bandaging his arm injury while listening to him.
[Curiosity, irritability...]
Glancing in a certain direction in the darkness, she still had a faint smile on her lips, "Maybe you just want to do some good things in secret... No one else needs to know what we do."
