Fatal Shot - Chapter 470
Chapter 470: Level 60 Quasi-Boss!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Outside Silvermoon City, on a road full of abandoned vehicles and lurking zombies everywhere.
“Boom!”
A large and tall black Energy SUV that was more than two-meters in height and with external heavy armor ran into two zombies standing on the road and tearing at something before they were sent flying, then rolled over them without hesitation.
“How’s the situation, how far are we from them?” On the roof of Big Pineapple’s Heavy “Knight-13,” Feng Luo asked Digital Cat while sitting inside as he set the Eye of the Thunder on the car hood and with a “ping” sound as he busted the head of a Licker attempting to catch up with them with its speed.
“Two kilometers, her speed has increased, it should be that the congestion ahead isn’t so high.” Digital Cat said, looking steadily at the monitoring instrument in her hand.
“Luckily, Phoenix had a way to follow up, I didn’t think that the Tracking Biochip signal had been completely locked up by Nightingale. The effect of the Legendary grade Recon Meter is very useful.” Standing up in the front seat and observing using military binoculars, Onishi spoke with longingness.
…
It was close to half an hour since the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group base battle.
Nightingale had first used the Recon Meter to create virtual camouflaged humanoid silhouettes, then secretly knocked Digital Cat out and rushed to abduct the target little Sulli before the few people returned.
After that, the five players’ initial plans had been completely disrupted. Especially when in order to prevent such a situation, Digital Cat had secretly found a chance to inject a Biochip tracking device provided in the Agent Passcode Chest into Sulli’s body, and when it was effective from the disruption of the Legendary grade Recon Meter.
The players were completely at their wits’ end.
Luckily, Phoenix used to know a way to stalk Nightingale, and everyone followed all the way.
Without bringing little Sulli along and exposing their identities, possessing Disguise Chips, it was too easy for them to escape from the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group’s surveillance.
However, according to what Phoenix said now, Nightingale had already found a transportation tool put outside the city, a modified Agent-use car.
Even with Phoenix’s red Energy sports car, she could only try her best not to be shaken off.
“Didn’t think that we’d actually be calculated by Nightingale. This NPC is too sinister, wait till we catch up, no matter what, we’ve to kill him quickly, or at least give him a good beating.” Big Pineapple drove and with a drift, he once again violently hit a howling zombie lunging over into the air. He gritted his teeth, clearly holding a grudge against those lousy acts that Nightingale did on Death Hunter Island.
“The chance of catching up is not 10%, the highest speed of this car of yours is 300 kilometers per hour, compared with Nightingale’s Agent car that is definitely modified; in such a congested area with frequent obstacles in the way, you still wouldn’t be shaken off too much. But once you reach the open area with no obstacles, you’d definitely be greatly shaken off.” Digital Cat’s analysis gave Big Pineapple a chill. “If you had a Master grade Vehicle Driving Proficiency skill, perhaps you would have a certain possibility of catching up. But now, we can only hope that Nightingale meets with an accident before meeting with the support staff. Compared to Nightingale, I’m more concerned about Aida Wong; Phoenix said that she didn’t discover where she is, this woman is a little strange.”
“Master grade? Forget it, among the players now, there isn’t one basic skill that has been trained to Master grade. And the possibility of an accident, with Nightingale having the powerful Detection ability of a Legendary grade Recon Meter, it probably would not be very possible for his car to be overturned by a monster. With Nightingale’s combat power, although it isn’t considered very strong, Commander monsters of at least Level 50 definitely wouldn’t possibly be his match.” Big Pineapple pondered, thinking that to catch up with Nightingale seemed like it was not possible.
They had barely and painstakingly taken all sorts of risks to save the target, to actually have it snatched away by an NPC right when they were about to succeed, left them a little depressed.
“Feels like this is a bit of a bluff, could it be a Hidden Mission?” Big Pineapple thought.
…
A few minutes later, in the communication channel in the earphones of everyone chasing all the way, Phoenix’s cold but a little anxious voice suddenly sounded. “A new infected host has appeared, Nightingale’s car has met with an accident. The target is now in danger, y’all backup quick!”
“New infected host?”
“Nightingale’s in an accident?”
In the Heavy Knight-13, everyone froze after hearing the news.
“Sister Phoenix, what accident has happened?” Digital Cat followed up asking.
There was no reply, everyone could only hear a wave of gunshots and some tearing beast-like howl from the communication channel, followed with a crash sound from a fast-moving car and a high-speed crash.
“Hurry!”
With this situation, there was no need to say anything.
Big Pineapple unleashed all he had and dodged the obstacles on the road with the aid of the Knight’s intelligence system, speeding towards Phoenix’s direction.
…
“Zoom!”
On the road winding around mountains, a red Energy sports car, which had suffered a serious crash on its surface and with one of its engines already extinguished, was travelling forward at high speed.
Atop the taller mountain cliff, a humanoid creature climbing on four limbs and was rapidly leaping as it advanced, chasing the sports car at a super-fast speed.
As a “humanoid-shape,” other than its four mutant limbs, its back also grew two gigantic wing-like arms carrying sharp claws of more than tens of centimeters.
Amidst climbing and leaping very quickly, it could catch up with the car, the two gigantic arms continuously grabbed up some rocks of over 100 catties and violently threw them at the fast-moving red sports car below.
The continuous rock throwing made the red sports car ahead have to slow down its speed and dodge as it traveled along.
“Da, da, da…”
Above the opened sunroof of the red sports car, Nightingale with bloodstains at the side of his mouth and with a section torn out from his combat uniform was raising his submachine gun with both hands, continuously firing a string of bullets at the G-Virus infected William behind him, jumping between rocks.
However, the effect of this kind of attack was limited.
Besides having many bullets absorbed by the rocks and trees between the hills, even if they had hit William, the wounds caused would be healed within a short few seconds.
“Boom!”
Rather, this time when the mutated William threw down a rock around the size of two heads, Nightingale quickly ducked and the rock brushed past his upper body and smashed onto Phoenix’s Energy sports car on the back left side.
In the end, after a great rumble, the entire Energy sports car was almost driven off the mountain with a lost tire.
“Ow!”
William’s speed did not change, as he bashed down trees and rocks in the way and advanced at high speed.
“Ping!”
“-4566!”
Luckily, at that moment, an ice-cold armor-piercing bullet encircled by streaks of electricity suddenly flew from behind and hit William’s back.
“B grade Frozen Bullet!”
The double side-effects of the ice-cold bullet added with the activated Eye of the Thunder’s special attribute not only slowed William’s speed suddenly but also exploded a bowl-sized bleeding wound in his back.
Compared with the Tyrant created by T-Virus, the G-Virus-mutated William surpassed in both strength and agility; but was seemingly a little weaker in terms of personal defense coefficient.
However, its powerful healing ability was clearly able to make-up for its insufficiency.
Although the B grade bullet’s attack and strength had produced an enormous wound, a layer of granuloma grew out within a short period of time, rapidly healing.
William was not bothered by Feng Luo who had attacked him, as his whole body still continued to chase after Phoenix’s red sports car that was only left with three tires, which continued to travel with largely reduced speed.
It was as if there was something inside that it was extremely longing for.
[William Parkins (Mutant Level 60 Quasi-Boss), G-Virus infected host…]
At around 500 meters behind, inside the Heavy Knight with its speed at the extreme, Onishi had already used Detection and obtained part of the mutated William’s information.
“A Level 60 Quasi-Boss!”

The Level stunned the remaining three people.
