Night's Nomenclature -
Chapter 322: The Divine Sniper on the Long Street
In everyone's perception, the Forbidden Artifact Tribunal is a very strange and mysterious existence. They seem to always be able to foresee the death of Metahumans and then come to collect them.
They can roughly judge the level and location of the Metahumans who are about to die, but they don't know who is going to die.
Every time they appear, people know that a Metahuman is going to die.
These people are wearing black linen cloaks like ascetics, like a group of carrion crows.
Usually, the Forbidden Artifact Tribunal will classify Metahuman death events as level 1, 2, or 3.
The deaths of C-Class, D-Class, E-Class, and F-Class Metahumans are all classified as level 3 events, which are low-priority events and can be dealt with later.
The deaths of B-Class and A-Class Metahumans are all classified as level 2 events, which are high-priority events. If the deaths of these two levels of Metahumans are not handled promptly, they will form a Forbidden Zone, so they must be handled immediately.
A-Class Metahuman deaths correspond to level 1 events. Members of the Forbidden Artifact Tribunal must rush to the scene no matter when or where they are, even if it requires sacrificing everything.
Therefore, Li Changqing felt that the Forbidden Artifact Tribunal came too quickly tonight. If it were just a battle between Shadow Candidates, those crows who foresee death shouldn't have come so quickly!
Unless, they have already foreseen that there will be even higher-level Metahumans dying tonight.Li Changqing looked out the window. The vehicle had already driven into the low-rise building area of District 4. This is the most famous red-light district in District 4. The dancers on the roadside are posing in the windows, and there are also male dancers mixed in, diversifying to meet all customer needs.
Li Changqing glanced at the LCD screen in her hand. The picture on it is constantly refreshing, and the signal is extremely weak.
There shouldn't be such a weak WIFI signal in City 18.
She silently looked at the scenery of this city and suddenly sighed: "I wonder if it's still possible to park now."
Lao Jiu was stunned: "What's wrong, Boss?"
As soon as the words fell, the vehicle at the forefront of the convoy suddenly stopped, causing the vehicles behind to have to brake.
The convoy braked too suddenly, and no one in the front car warned.
With a few bangs, the vehicles at the front of the convoy collided one after another, successively rear-ending.
"Boss, hold on tight!"
At this moment, Little Eagle, who was driving, suddenly gritted his teeth and turned the steering wheel.
At the critical moment, the vehicle Li Changqing was in swerved out with an extremely narrow margin, the whole car spinning like it was on ice, breaking away from the colliding convoy!
It was this crucial driving skill that allowed the bulletproof car to avoid being trapped in the colliding convoy.
Otherwise, their car would be trapped there and completely lose its mobility, like prey trapped in a mire.
Lao Jiu's eyes lit up when he saw Little Eagle's driving skills: "Amazing, Little Eagle."
Little Eagle didn't answer. He tightly pursed his lips, his eyes occasionally glancing at the rearview mirror and occasionally at the road ahead.
When the car was spinning, at one moment he slammed down on the accelerator.
The four tires of the car were rapidly rubbing against the ground, rolling up huge white plumes of dust.
The harsh sound of tires gripping the ground rang out. Little Eagle forcefully used the car's torque to stabilize the turning car body. The next moment, the bulletproof car, like a bursting rocket, drove back the way they came.
He knew that this must be a pre-set ambush point. If the car stopped here, it would be all over!
Don't care about the other vehicles in the convoy, don't care whether the other members of the special task force are dead or alive!
His current task is to get Li Changqing out!
As the bulletproof car began to escape, five or six Off-road Vehicles suddenly drove out from both sides of the road, following closely behind.
Little Eagle asked: "Boss, where are we going now?"
Li Changqing shook her head: "The other party is well-prepared. I'm afraid we can't go anywhere."
"Ah?" Little Eagle was stunned. He turned the steering wheel, wanting to drive the car onto the main road.
"But this time, it's all thanks to you," Li Changqing smiled, "There must have been many killers with Firearms ambushing just now, but not necessarily now."
Little Eagle looked ahead, and sure enough, as Li Changqing had predicted, Off-road Vehicles were roaring closer and closer in front of them, charging towards them recklessly.
The narrow two-lane road left no room to escape.
"Open the sunroof," Li Changqing said calmly.
Lao Jiu panicked: "Boss, just stay in the car, this car is bulletproof."
Li Changqing smiled: "Those who dare to ambush me here naturally also know that my car is bulletproof. Open the window, Li Clan's newly appointed spokesperson of the intelligence agency, how can I be a coward and hide my head like a turtle? Have you forgotten, they have ways to deal with bulletproof cars, don't die in the car in a humiliating way."
Lao Jiu was stunned.
He has been protecting Li Changqing for many years, like an old servant and housekeeper who works diligently for Li Changqing.
From when this Boss was in college to now, when she holds power in one hand.
Lao Jiu knows very well that Li Changqing only shows this demeanor when facing a desperate situation. That is the pride of being a member of the Conglomerate, and she cannot die in a cowardly way.
It's a desperate situation again.
"Open the window," Li Changqing said coldly.
Lao Jiu helplessly pressed the window opening button, and the sunroof of the bulletproof car slowly opened.
With a loud bang, the bulletproof car collided with the oncoming Off-road Vehicle.
But at this moment, Li Changqing leaped out of the sunroof, landing sharply on the hood of the Off-road Vehicle behind that hadn't collided yet.
The fall seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. After receiving the force of this fall, the front of the Off-road Vehicle instantly sank, and even the tires burst.
Under the enormous inertia, the rear of the car began to rise, and the whole car seemed as if it were about to roll over in the air.
Li Changqing didn't stop her movements. She simply bent her knees and leaped onto the hood of another Off-road Vehicle and repeated the trick. In just five or six seconds, except for the one that collided with the bulletproof car, the remaining five oncoming Off-road Vehicles were rolling uncontrollably, and the people in the cars also fell into a coma in the terrifying rolling.
Little Eagle was dumbfounded. This was the first time he had witnessed such a level of Metahuman in action. The kind of magnificent and reality-defying power is heart-pounding!
Li Changqing, usually calm and rational, is like a human weapon at this moment.
The woman stood on the long street, looking south and north.
There were no chasing vehicles or dense killers, only eight people slowly approaching.
The eight people seemed to be in some kind of tacit rhythm, even their walking steps were almost identical.
Only 8 people.
Not many.
But she understands that the fewer people who come, the more dangerous it is.
"You seem to be well-prepared?" Li Changqing asked with a smile.
Among the eight people, a middle-aged man smiled: "Boss Changqing is well-hidden. We only recently learned that you are also a master. However, whether you are a master or not, we must treat you seriously, this is only appropriate for your status."
Li Changqing nodded: "You're so polite, you must be from the Shendai Family. A musty smell. However, the place you chose is good."
Li Changqing praised sincerely.
She is experienced, so she just made a slight judgment of the terrain in the car and understood that the target of the Forbidden Artifact Tribunal's death prediction tonight might be herself.
This entire area has narrow roads, even if the 081 Garrison rushes to the rescue, the mobile forces will be difficult to show their advantages, especially since Li Yunshou has already transferred all of the 081 Garrison to guard Ban Shan Mountain Estate.
So the other party is very clear, at this time, Ban Shan Mountain Estate is what the Li Clan cares about the most. To kill Li Changqing, the best opportunity is tonight.
"Where's Shendai Tongwu?" Li Changqing curiously asked: "My people once blinded one of his eyes. He hates me so much, he should come to witness my death himself, isn't he coming out?"
"Boss Changqing is joking," a young man in his thirties, standing in the shadow of a building, smiled: "My skills were not as good as yours when my eye was blinded by Boss Changqing. There is nothing to hate. On the contrary, I admire Boss Changqing very much."
One of Shendai Tongwu's eyes is empty like ink. He didn't replace it with a mechanical eye, so every time he looks in the mirror, it reminds him what his goal in the second half of his life is.
At this time, when Li Changqing saw the main person appear, she suddenly raised her hand, like a kind of signal.
However, except for the footsteps of the eight people, there were no other sounds on the long street.
"So that's how it is," Li Changqing nodded: "There really are a few internal ghosts."
Speaking of which, she also flashed into the shadow of the building, trying to avoid the sniper's perspective as much as possible.
Shendai Tongwu remained standing in the shadows: "Boss Changqing always leaves a backhand, we know. Without some trump card, we naturally wouldn't dare to kill you tonight. After all, that's how I lost my eye back then."
"So, the internal ghost sold the sniper positions near me to you," Li Changqing said: "This internal ghost is not someone close to me, because Lao Jiu doesn't know that I brought others out tonight. Moreover, he doesn't have the authority to know the special task force's action plan, six snipers, it's a pity to lose them."
Shendai Tongwu smiled: "The 081 Garrison can't move, so using snipers is the best choice for Boss Changqing. Anyway, there's no need for snipers at Ban Shan Mountain Estate."
Li Changqing continued: "However, besides the person who exposed the sniper's position, there are also other internal ghosts in my convoy...right, Wang Bingxu?"
She looked to the end of the long street.
There was a middle-aged man hiding silently there, until Li Changqing mentioned his name, then slowly walked out: "I'm sorry, Boss."
At this moment, Lao Jiu and Little Eagle had already got out of the car and were guarding Li Changqing's front and back.
Even though they know there may be snipers nearby, they have not retreated at all.
Lao Jiu looked at Wang Bingxu in the distance and cursed: "You bastard, Boss was so good to you, your mother was saved by her back then, but now you betray her?"
Wang Bingxu asked back: "You blocked nine bullets for her, aren't you just an old dog by her side?"
Lao Jiu sneered: "Then come and try, let's see how much it will cost you to kill the three of us."
Li Changqing didn't pay attention to Wang Bingxu anymore, but looked at Little Eagle, who was trembling in front of her: "Even you can protect me at the risk of your life. This surprises me."
Little Eagle trembled: "Ah...ah?"
He is just an E-Class Gene Soldier who has just received the second injection, who would have thought that he would Face[-] such a crisis.
But he can't help but stand up, after all, Lao Jiu has already set the atmosphere.
Li Changqing said to Shendai Tongwu with a smile: "On my way here, I found that all my communication equipment had been cut off, and I was still wondering which hacker master did it? Later, I realized that there is no need for hackers for this kind of thing, just install a jammer in my convoy. At first, I couldn't figure it out, but when the first car in the convoy gradually accelerated and then suddenly braked urgently, causing the rear vehicles to collide one after another, I figured out that the internal ghost was in the first car of my convoy, and Wang Bingxu was in the car that escaped."
Shendai Tongwu clapped his hands and smiled: "Often, the most simple and unpretentious methods are the most effective."
"Since you seized the sniper positions, why don't you shoot?" Li Changqing calmly asked: "I've already felt someone aiming at me, is it because you're not sure?"
"Being able to feel someone aiming at you from 600 meters away, Boss Changqing is indeed higher-level than we imagined," Shendai Tongwu has always stood in the shadows, never taking a step forward: "I'm just curious, where did you get your Cultivation inheritance? As far as I know, you're not an Awakened One."
Li Changqing curiously asked: "Are you really sure you can kill me?"
Shendai Tongwu smiled: "Without these six snipers, I really wouldn't be sure."
There are only three types of Metahumans in this world: Cultivation practitioners, Awakened Ones, and Gene Soldiers.
Gene Soldiers cannot reach A-Class. They only add to their genes, inserting certain gene segments. Gene Soldiers won't even produce a Forbidden Zone.
As for Awakened Ones, they shouldn't have such pure attack methods as Li Changqing, because most Awakened Ones have various abilities, some of which are not suitable for combat. Not everyone has explosive lethality like Li Dongze.
Only Cultivation practitioners have systematic attack methods.
As Yang Yang said, Awakened Ones may be support or junglers, or even monsters, while Cultivation practitioners are born to be the core, they are born for battle.
However, according to the Shendai Family's investigation materials, there has never been any indication that Li Changqing had ever apprenticed. Before this year, everyone even just regarded her as a weak woman with no fighting ability.
Until she killed a master from the Koshima family with one palm, and then jumped unharmed from a height of more than ten floors.
This is a very strange thing. Such a master suddenly appeared, but no one knows where she learned from.
But there are only a few orthodox Cultivation organizations!
...
...
At this moment, at the top of a tall building in the distance, a woman in a black linen cloak is standing in the night wind of City 18.
The wind howled at high altitude, shaking her cloak.
The woman, more than 3,000 meters away, quietly stared at the long street, her expression calm.
It seems that a distance of 3,000 meters cannot prevent her from seeing.
A six-eyed crow is standing on her shoulder.
With a click, the passage door on the rooftop behind her was opened, and Li Dongze slowly walked to her side: "San Yue, you're here."
"There will be an A-Class death tonight," San Yue answered concisely.
The meaning is very simple, an A-Class is worth her running a trip.
The woman has thin cheeks, a ponytail, and no makeup on her Face[-]. Although it is very simple, she has a unique charm.
Li Dongze looked at the long street and said calmly: "Li Changqing's snipers have all been killed. Even if she has quietly been promoted to A-Class, she can only be constrained. As you said, she is likely to die tonight. The internal ghosts in the Li Clan's power transition finally couldn't help but jump out."
San Yue and Li Dongze look colder than each other, as if what is happening in the world has nothing to do with them. They are just two observers in the night.
San Yue thought for a moment and said: "Six snipers, plus eight Gene Soldiers, Shendai and Koshima have spent a huge price. This is a dead end."
Li Dongze said: "Although it's a dead end, I don't think the person who dies will be Li Changqing."
San Yue glanced at him: "I didn't say it was her."
Li Dongze smiled: "Then we're quite in agreement. I'll go first, the outcome is already decided. Thank you all for your hard work tonight. Don't let City 18 become a Forbidden Zone. Although I really want to leave, I still like it here."
San Yue suddenly said: "Then if you might die one day, please let me know in advance. It's very troublesome to collect an A-Class, I need to prepare in advance."
Li Dongze smiled: "Okay."
However, just as Li Dongze walked to the passage in the center of the rooftop, he suddenly froze, turning abruptly towards a certain part of the night.
...
...
In the long street.
Shendai Tongwu smiled: "Forget it, let's not play riddles anymore. Family matters are important. If Boss Changqing interferes with what we will do next, it will be very troublesome, so we can only ask you to die."
Speaking of which, he also raised his fist like Li Changqing just did.
On the south and north sides of the long street, eight Gene Soldiers slowly flanked toward the middle.
The eight people's steps were neat and uniform, their coordination impeccable.
From the moment they were selected after injecting Gene Medicine, all the training they received was to jointly kill A-Class masters above their level.
These eight Gene Soldiers are like a single organism.
In an instant, the eight people erupted like thunder, rushing towards Li Changqing together.
In just an instant, Lao Jiu seemed to commit suicide as he rushed out, desperately trying to break the rhythm and balance between the eight people.
However, when he faced the four people in the north, every punch and kick was like hitting cotton. The four people surrounded him, their bodies twisting and dodging like puppets, no matter how hard Lao Jiu tried, he couldn't destroy their rhythm.
To kill an A-Class, only destructive power is not enough, because few people in this world can compare with A-Class masters in terms of destructive power.
So, if the eight people want to kill an A-Class together, then what they need most is to preserve their lives, to constantly wear down the A-Class master's combat effectiveness with softness, and to gradually devour their fighting spirit.
Lao Jiu only felt that his whole body was trapped in a sponge, unable to exert force. No matter how he made a move, he felt uncomfortable.
In just ten seconds of contact between the two sides, Lao Jiu received three punches and four kicks, flying back like a rag doll.
Li Changqing moved. She had to take on the pursuit of the four, otherwise Lao Jiu would die.
Lao Jiu felt guilty. His responsibility was to protect others, but he ended up needing others to protect him.
Moreover, Li Changqing, in order to save him, exposed herself outside the shadow of the building, in the sight of the snipers!
"Boss, watch out for the snipers!" Lao Jiu shouted.
After shouting, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Sniper bullets came in response. Three of the six snipers in the dark fired at the same time, but they all missed.
One of them grazed Li Changqing's shoulder, scorching the sleeve of her leather jacket.
Li Changqing sighed in her heart, she could only rely on her high-speed movements to avoid the sniper's trajectory.
There was no other way.
But the problem is that the combined technique of the eight people is like a millstone, trapping her so that she cannot move.
The eight people are in eight positions, no matter which one she wants to attack, someone will attack from the opposite direction, forcing her to give up the attack and protect her vital parts.
Only by standing among these eight people can one truly feel how disgusting the combination of these eight Gene Soldiers is.
Metahumans have high attack and low defense. Even if Li Changqing suffers a few blows to her vital parts, she still can't resist.
These eight people are determined to die. As long as Li Changqing dares to fight to the death, then while three or four of them die, they will definitely be able to leave her here.
It's like a parasite biting your body, but you can't tear it off hard, because that will leave its mouthpiece under your skin.
The pain of the wound doesn't matter, but the mouthpiece left under the skin will cause you to become infected, sick, and eventually die.
No, Li Changqing clearly felt that among these eight Gene Soldiers, there was actually an A-Class Cultivation practitioner!
This is their biggest trump card!
Although the eight people are in sync, this strange battle array must have an eye, otherwise how could this battle array be so tough, sharp, and deadly!
The opponent is hidden among these eight people, waiting for Li Changqing to prepare to fight to the death before launching a fatal blow.
At this time, Li Changqing is still wearing a punk-style leather jacket and a short wig.
It was the outfit she changed to secretly go out to play with Qing Chen, now thinking about it, this clothes hasn't been used yet and was hit by a sniper bullet, and it can't be worn anymore.
I wonder what that boy is doing now?
If the other party knew that his new friend was going to die, would he be a little sad?
In an instant, the eight Gene Soldiers of the Shendai Family suddenly combined their efforts, instantly shrinking the circle surrounding Li Changqing, making it difficult for her to move.
If the snipers want to kill Li Changqing, now is the best time.
However, the expected scene did not appear.
Nor was there any gunshot.
Only in the distance, on the top of the new building, a piece of glass suddenly shattered.
A roar followed.
Sniper!
But not Shendai's sniper!
The glass just shattered there, which was exactly the sniper point Li Changqing had set up earlier, and it was also where Shendai Tongwu's sniper had taken over!
Everyone was stunned.
No one expected that there were other snipers opposite Chun Lei Building!
Li Clan's internal ghosts never mentioned it!
Before anyone could react, a B-Class Gene Soldier beside Li Changqing suddenly exploded into a bloody mist.
The shards of glass fell, passing through the colorful neon lights from high altitude.
Bloody mist on the long street.
The shocked eyes of everyone.
Everything is so dramatic.
This shot instantly broke the balance of the eight people's joint attack!
Shendai Tongwu frowned and looked back from the shadows, he looked behind him, the sniper is there!
Opposite Chun Lei Building, the nearest high ground, is already Jinmao Building, more than 2,000 meters away.
Only the height and angle of the roof there are enough to overlook everything here.
At this time, Jinmao Building, the long street battlefield, Chun Lei Building, the three points are in a straight line, and the long street battlefield is between the two snipers.
However, if the sniper was on Jinmao Building.
That means that shot that just killed the killer in Chun Lei Building...the sniper bullet needs to cross a distance of 2600 meters, pass through the long street, and fly to Chun Lei Building!
Who can do this? Shendai Tongwu couldn't think of the answer for a moment!
