Chapter 379 - Operation Sparrow (VII)
The swordsmen and other melee players were unable to escape due to how Cotton just casually shoots them some webs that they can't even get to remove in the usual way. Due to their inability to escape, they are easy picking on kills. Without waiting for them to even escape, I bash their heads with the shield repeatedly before finishing them with a gun. I can injure them with the shield but it takes too long for them to die from just that and with all the enemies shooting me with arrows and magic alongside clerics healing the other players bashed with the shield, it will take me forever to eliminate them. Sure, I needed to wait for Harmless Sparrow's signal but that doesn't mean I needed to take that long to finish things that long.
Besides, if I needed to take long enough to wait for her signal, why not beat up the Vice President instead to pass up the time? Isn't that more beneficial?
"It's gotten a bit stale, so why not rush things?"
I grab the strings from Cotton and drag the players caught in the web. They were still struggling and cursing while I pulled them. With all my strength, I throw over the caught players to the unsuspecting clerics.
"Ahhhh!"
Followed by that, I pulled out the Pain Delivery and started firing at them. Their screams echoed and it only took a few seconds for them to die. I spared the clerics of course as I needed some healers for later. I can't afford to lose them just yet.
With the melee units gone, the only problem I have right now is the hunters trying to fight against me. There are no more magicians as I shoot them first for priority. If I compare Hunters and Magicians, magicians have more danger in them compared to the hunters as they have abilities that have a big AOE range. Hunters have AOE skills but they are not that strong and they don't compare to the AOE damage that Magicians have. So it is a very good idea to deal with them first before dealing with Hunters in a guild war.
Still, Hunters are still a threat and if they are good at using bow and arrow, they are as dangerous as Magicians and you need to kill them immediately if they do. Fortunately, from what I can see from all of the players who are Hunters, they don't seem to have any kind of good ability that I can say to be phenomenal and dangerous for me to prioritize killing time over other players. They keep missing from their shots and since they are not even doing any good damage against me, I don't need to prioritize them.
Now that all the melee units were dead, I started eliminating the rest of the players in one go. I don't need them to be still alive. And while I am doing that, I still don't feel any response from the Vice President. It was like he is just watching everything without care and seemed to be looking down on me. Does he think he still has the upper hand against me even though I already wiped out the entire guild? Or perhaps he still thinks his elite members still have the shots against me?
Maybe that was the case? But I didn't mind if he does think he does. I am looking for a challenge and the more surprises he has, the better and more entertaining it will be.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Because Pain Delivery is very strong and only one-shots enemies and players, one bullet is enough for every hunter. It seems to kill any Hunter despite using some abilities that would allow them to have high evasion, it was like it disables those effects and will hit 100%. I still don't know the math if it was really 100% accuracy rate but any gunshot seems to hit the enemy without any sort of miss. I didn't even experience seeing it miss at all. With all the enemies that can deal damage being killed, the only players left are the 5 remaining Clerics as the remaining 5 that should have been alongside the other 5 were killed trying to save some of the Hunters and magicians and got caught by the gunshots. I didn't mind killing a few of them as I don't need too many Clerics, 5 is enough.
"Cotton, tie them up. The tighter it is, the better. But oh, let them at least be able to use one of their hands."
Cotton immediately complied and shoot out the strings that immediately tied up the remaining 5 Clerics. They tried to run but that was not even an option as they were immediately gathered together in a lump. And just like what I ordered, they can still use one of their hands properly.
"Hey, the one they call Vice President who was casually just sitting there, how long are you going to just stay there and watch everything unfold huh?"
I can see him grit his teeth before he looks behind him. Looking behind him, someone else appeared, and just by looking who it was, I quickly recognized who it was.
It was Diena. A player that will become a famous one after the fall of the Blue Sky guild and will become one of the strongest rankers. I didn't know she is part of the Blue Sky guild until now.
No wonder this guy seems confident even if he lost all the other players around him. It was because he is reliant on Diena. As a future Top Chronomancer, she is not something I can underestimate. After all, Chronomancers are dangerous if they can do the combo to their attacks right and with Diena who is very familiar with the class, she is using, it's not a wonder she can easily defeat me if I didn't take precautions.. But that made the challenge a bit better now.
