Chapter 370 - 342: Ramjet Sniper Rifle

~7 min read 1,251 words

BOOM——

Two sports cars roared out of the street, approximately 1500 meters away from Luzhu Hotel.

The enemy was very experienced, and the hacker also took aggressive measures to prevent Lille’s intrusion,

At the moment V severed the enemy’s arms, the current from the Mantis Blade traveled through the cyber prosthetics’ circuits and activated the processor chips within, allowing these cyber components to receive Lille’s signal.

This sudden surge, if one did not have a profound understanding of the Prosthetic System, was difficult to detect. Most mercenary teams would not have a prosthetic doctor skilled in technology, which made it hard to notice the signal access immediately.

Once connected to the Prosthetic System, it provided a hacking link when the enemy communicated.

But the hacker responded quickly, or perhaps they used some sort of code while communicating, detecting the issue in the communication packet after just one communication.

So Lille could only transform the sending data packet into an undistinguished sonic blast, attacking the hacker’s senses.

This would at least incapacitate him for a good half-day.

In a battle, the lack of hacking power had a decisive impact, and the enemy decisively ordered a retreat——

It was obvious that those two sports cars belonged to the enemy!

"Lille, see that car? We’re chasing it..."

Mackinaw started simultaneously, with Little Octopus driving the car frantically toward Luzhu Hotel.

In a split second, Lille decided to give chase, but instinctively, he suddenly thought of a question,

Since someone was lurking around, yet did not show up to intervene or attack the sergeant, it meant the target was them!

The enemy’s target was them!

The Six Street Gang was just a front! This was an ambush!

Jack and V, accustomed to coordination, had already climbed through the window, ready to get into the car——

"Lille, stop! Don’t get in the car! Don’t leave the room!"

Before the words were finished.

A loud explosion echoed in the street air!

BOOM!

The violent explosion was as intense as a rocket blast, and if you reacted quickly enough, you could tell that it wasn’t just one big boom, but several!

Several blasts, some sharp, some deep!

This was what V heard. The moment Lille shouted to stop, she activated the Si Anweisitan, and Little Octopus intelligently maxed out the power.

Current surged from her spine, and this time, Little Octopus utilized a new stimulation voltage,

Several nerves, already fused with nanomaterials, were electrified.

"Si Anweisitan overload, Time Stop Effect increased from 18% to 21%."

In the activated state of Si Anweisitan, she heard seven blasts behind her, and then in her vision, the air distorted horrifyingly...

Those were sonic booms caused by bullets!

Although V noticed these, she did not make the mistake of focusing on other targets and yanked Jack back!

Jack, hearing Lille’s shout, stopped urgently, using V’s strength to haltingly retreat.

But one of his arms swung wide, staying exactly at his original position——which also placed it right in the bullet’s path!

BANG!

In a flash, Mackinaw’s entire car was cut in half,

the bullet passed through Jack’s arm, pierced Mackinaw’s car door, shot directly into the driver’s cabin, and without difficulty, angled out through the car’s chassis!

The fast-moving Mackinaw was like a nail pinned to the ground, with its front firmly pinned and the rear raised high, flames instantly filling the car’s interior!

The car tumbled with a thunderous noise, finally sliding across the ground with an ear-piercing screech, coming to a halt.

SCREECH——

This scene stunned everyone; the Six Street Gang members scattered like headless chickens to the buildings on either side of the street, while the sergeant took a deep breath, his eyes filled with fear.

Lille also felt the situation was extremely dire: The bullet was incredibly fast, and with the car flipping after impact, he couldn’t determine the shooter’s position from the trajectory in an instant!

He could only roughly speculate the shooter’s area by the shooting window and the surrounding buildings’ positions...

But that range was too vast!

After the shooting, there was a long silence, only interrupted by the sergeant’s angry roar over the communication channel,

"Sergeant, that was a fucking anti-armor punch sniper rifle!"

"Sergeant, everyone hide, don’t expose yourselves!"

Lille could only remain silent: Such powerful bullets were what he typically used against the Terrorist Mobile Team, but now someone else was using them against them.

On the battlefield, the spear often outmatched the shield; now Lille could feel what the enemy felt when facing their weapons.

Their gear was strong, their prosthetics advanced, but a secretly positioned high-power sniper rifle could still pose a tremendous threat to them!

He decisively began hacking into the nearby road network and shared this information with the sergeant to jointly determine the search area.

The sergeant started coordinating with his men over the network, and contacted nearby reinforcements to conduct a carpet search of the area.

The street fell into silence, the Six Street Gang members nervously clinging to cover while searching, the air so heavy it felt like it could crush them.

The neighbors, covering their ears, hid at home, waiting for the battle to end.

This suffocating silence lasted about an hour.

"Lille, it seems he’s gone."

"Sergeant, ha... seeing something like that, I’d rather hide in an alley until tomorrow... no, until next week."

"Sergeant, anyone who’s fought in an alley knows."

Lille also fell silent: The appearance of a punch sniper rifle on the streets was horrifying news because it was something meant for real corporate battlegrounds, much more restricted than a raccoon dog.

Because this weapon could genuinely blow any corporate dog’s head from kilometers away——it was meant to deal with actual armored units.

A punch sniper rifle, as the name suggests, fired bullets that essentially functioned as mini punch-jet engines.

The high-speed bullet would draw in high-pressure, high-temperature air through the gap between the conical bullet head and the specially designed shell wall, igniting the rear primer, continuously causing small-scale explosions to propel the bullet until it hit the target.

Thanks to this unique construction, the bullet wouldn’t slow down before hitting the target; it might even accelerate!

Both the ammunition and the weapon were outrageously expensive, and due to their special design, maintenance costs were equally outrageous, making smuggling virtually impossible.

Thinking of this, Lille sent a message to Rogel, intending to exchange information,

"Lille, those mercenaries have punch sniper rifles."

"Rogel, so what? Didn’t you start it?"

Lille was stunned——

It seemed someone mistook the Death Warrior bullets he got from Marvel for punch sniper bullets!

Even though no evidence at the scene could prove they were punch bullets, no one would argue this with Lille!

If such force was assumed to enter the streets, everyone would naturally lessen the control over such items!

Understanding this, the scene fell into a deeper silence.

About two hours later, the Six Street Gang’s cars zoomed in, along with another Mackinaw.

In the midst of chaos, the cars drove off, with the sergeant boldly sticking his head out of the car window, shouting to the neighbors,

"Alright! Go about your business! The terrorists have been killed by the Six Street Gang! Cleanup crews will arrive shortly!"

If not for the "666" graffiti on the car, he could almost be mistaken for the local police.

Back in his seat, the sergeant furiously sent messages, both coordinating his men and messaging Lille,

"Sergeant, this is big; come to Aloroy, and we’ll talk."

"Lille, alright."
