Chapter 549 Heat Destruction
TICK-tock…
The destroyed clock continued ticking, the time showing barely 1 hour.
The green sun shone upon the smoking City, illuminating the streets in a lime color.
Within the abandoned building, Isaac cleaned the gun with a white rag. The sound had turned dull, the previous mayhem long gone.
Isaac planned to simply wait until the clock hits zero, or 'breaks'. However, the game obviously had other plans.
In everyone's vision, a message appeared.
[Dear Contenders!]
[Hour Left Till Stage Two!]
[Everyone with zero kills shall be eliminated!]
[Kills: 0]
Isaac dropped the cleaning rag and clicked his tongue, ''Didn't bother to mention that ten hours ago?''
As soon as Isaac finished reading, the green sky turned dull, and the sun disappeared. Everything turned dark, but then a shimmer of light came from the glowing clock. However, it barely lit up the streets, leaving the buildings pitch dark.
Standing up to his feet, Isaac cracked his neck and slowly walked down the stairs. Immediately after reaching the bottom floor, the battered walls entered his view, giving zero cover.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLike clockwork, the sky shone as several flashes appeared in the distance. The players started using their skills, lighting up the sky in a radiant glow.
Isaac's eyes widened, and he immediately hid behind one of the broken walls. The light shone on his building, lighting it up. Everyone in the vicinity would have noticed him if he didn't hid.
Crack…
''?!'' Whipping his head around, Isaac's facial expression fell apart as the wall collapsed. As a result, the whole building started falling via the domino effect, making an immensely loud commotion!
''Shit!'' Rushing out of the building, Isaac entered the streets, trying to enter the opposite building. However, there were players and New-Gen Humans hiding near. They turned their guns toward him, and fired.
''Marksman of Space!'' With no other choice, he teleported away, and his previous spot got blasted to smithereens.
He appeared on top of one of the factories, giving him a great vantage spot, and allowing him to see every street clearly. But he knew that place like this couldn't be left unused.
Turning around, he saw a shimmer of lens coming from the sniper rifle's scope.
Bang!
Slanting his head to the left, the bullet grazed past his cheek.
Isaac pulled out Silvercloud, smashing the trigger as he returned counter-fire.
Bang!
The man hiding jumped out of the way, landing on top of the balcony before rushing inside the dark factory.
Isaac glanced at the clock. The clock hand ticked down with terrifying speed. It felt like the time could stop at any moment.
''I have no other choice… time to blast his place apart!'' Aiming the barrel at the rooftop, Isaac pulled the trigger via using Seismic-Wave!
The barrel trembled and pulsated. As soon as the waves of shockwaves resounded, the rooftop began falling apart and crashing down.
Isaac jumped off the rooftop, landing at the entrance of the entrance. Then, he pulled out his dagger with his left hand and pulled out his Silvercloud with his right hand.
Bam!
The door explosively opened, revealing the hiding man. He wore a mask, obscuring his face.
The clock's light shone on his weapon, revealing a unique-looking weapon, slightly similar to Mosin-Nagant, and it also had a steel blade attached.
Without hesitation, he plunged the blade into Isaac's chest.
However, the blade mysteriously phased through him.
''Wraith's Shot… Human Version.'' Isaac muttered softly. He applied the Wraith's Shot to his avatar, making his body transparent!
''Tsk, skillful as ever...'' The masked man, at first, clicked his tongue but then had to admire the skill the white-haired man showed. Not many could apply their skills to their avatar bodies, and even fewer could use them in real life.
Isaac's hand caught the sniper rifle's barrel and slowly removed the blade from his body. As his body lost its transparency, Isaac raised his dagger and slashed with it.
The masked man pulled his head back, the dagger barely cutting the strands of his mask.
Then, the masked man removed his grip from the sniper and pulled out pair of daggers from his back.
Isaac threw the gun away and stepped back. The distance was now merely a meter, enough to slash with their daggers.
Both of them squinted their eyes, waiting for the others to move.
However, at that moment, the light shone in the sky, blinding everyone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm''Comet Party!'' A singular voice echoed across the air. Following that, dozens of comets appeared above the clouds, lighting the sky in crimson. The comets crashed through the City walls and buildings, causing everything to be lit in a glorious blaze!
Without hesitation, the masked man slashed with his daggers, using the comet shower as a distraction.
Isaac stepped to the side, dodging the daggers. Then, he stabbed the single dagger forward, piercing through the air.
The masked man slashed upwards with the right dagger, parrying Isaac's dagger. Then, he pierced forwards with the left dagger, aiming at Isaac's waist.
Isaac raised his left knee and kneed the dagger away. As he stopped holding the dagger, allowing it to fly away, he lifted the Silvercloud and fired simultaneously.
Bang, bang, bang!
The masked man crossed his arms and deflected the bullets with the dagger, showing extremely skilled swordsmanship skills.
The bullets slingshotted away, hitting far-away buildings.
'What great skills!' Isaac marveled at the scene in front, 'With such skills. He must be Martial Artist in real-life. But, why is he using Marksman class?'
''HEAT VISION!''
A reality-breaking scene happened right in front of his face. The masked man's eyes shone in crimson as two beams of heat vision pierced through the mask, burning through the air.
'This ability seems familiar… is it him?!' Isaac jumped out of the way and continued running away as the heat vision followed right after. Everything lit ablaze as surrounding buildings got charred to ash.
''Haha… Wraith!'' The mask burnt apart, revealing a familiar face.
''BlackNight!'' Isaac cried out as he jumped out of the Heat Vision's way.
Slowly, the Heat Vision disappeared.
''Heh…'' BlackNight cracked his knuckles, his eyes shining in crimson, ''Heat Destruction!''
WHOOOSH!
