Chapter 25

The numerous rebel soldiers began to attack the Town of Exiles from several directions, and the players in the Town of Exiles defended under the arrangement and command of the town guard .

As a place threatened by the mutant beasts in the Forest of Exiles and rebel bases, Town of Exiles 1022 had strong fortifications and an NPC garrison of more than 500 people .

The fierce gunshots were like thunder . The bullets flew, and energy skills of various colors whizzed past . The sounds of explosions came in waves . There was no foreplay; the battle for the Town of Exiles heated up quickly!

On top of the roof, looking at his target through the M110 sniper scope, Feng Luo’s eyes were calm and not as full of excitement as other ordinary players . He had experienced war more than once in the past, so there were no nervous feelings in his heart .

An ordinary armor-piercing bullet was loaded, and the muzzle of M110 was aimed at a rebel Machine Gunner who was shooting 700 meters away . In this kind of battle, there was no need for him to use his own special bullets . Even the E-class armor-piercing bullets that were produced were not necessary . After all, the E-class ammunition with attack bonuses of 5 percent cost almost five credits per round .

The Machine Gunner apparently did not know that he had been targeted and was controlling the six-barreled machine gun in front of him, violently firing at the defenses of the Town of Exiles . The bullets that were continuously fired formed six streams of orange and red flames at the end of the gun, making the Gunner’s animalistic face even more hideous!

Bang!

−1574!

Feng Luo’s first shot hit the chest of the rebel Machine Gunner . As a humanoid monster, his level and equipment were slightly lower than ordinary players, so the shot not only tore the rebel Machine Gunner’s combat suit, but the residual impact of the bullet caused over 1,000 points of yellow weak-point damage .

Outside the Town of Exiles, the rebel Machine Gunner that was shot in the chest showed some panic, then threw himself down, trying to take cover behind the metal plating on the bottom of the six-barreled machine gun .

“Very good reflexes!” Feng Luo praised .

However, the Machine Gun didn’t provide much cover . The rebel Machine Gunner only managed to block his head and chest, and a small part of the body was left exposed .

For ordinary Sniper players, it would have been difficult to hit such a small target from 700 to 800 meters, but it was not difficult at all for Feng Luo!

Bang!

−1945!

The second shot of armor-piercing bullets broke through and depleted the remaining HP of the beastly rebel Machine Gunner . A system prompt message appeared in Feng Luo’s field of vision .

Level-42 rebel Machine Gunner killed . 80 XP . Town of Exiles 1022 gained 5 medal points!

This “medal point” was not the same as the “merit” that had been previously rewarded for killing the rebel Elite captain . The latter was much more difficult than the former . However, defeating a Level-42 Machine Gunner only yielded five medal points . It seemed like it would not be so easy to gain 100 points .

Fortunately, there were many rebels outside the town, and many mutant beasts at Level 35 or above were constantly converging on the Town of Exiles . As such, it would not be difficult to earn more medal points .

Bang! Bang!

The M110 fired at a steady pace, shooting a round every two seconds and soon killed a Level-39 Wild Boar with a pair of sharp fangs, gaining three medal points for Feng Luo .

It was said that the rebel army had invented a powerful technique for controlling the brains of mutant organisms through their deep research into biotechnology . Therefore, it was possible for them to influence some mutant organisms to join the battle . That was one of the reasons the federal government had been unable to completely destroy them . These monsters were all “brainwashed” by the biotechnology of the rebel army, so they violently attacked the Town of Exiles!

After about half an hour of fighting, the situation gradually fell into a stalemate . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

The town’s defenses had the perfect number of players, with 1,000 to 2,000 total, plus several electromagnetic energy cannons . But the rebel forces had the advantages of possessing more mechs, and the firepower of their attack had not diminished . Only a few attacks launched in succession could be suppressed by the support of the guards and the players . In the process, the players who had the long-range attacks naturally earn a lot, and even Feng Luo, who only attacked with his sniper rifle, had reached more than 70 medal points . But the acquisition speed was slowing down because the sky was almost dark .

There were differences in the daytime and nighttime environments in War . In general, night in the game was even more dangerous because there were many special mutant creatures that came out to hunt and move in the dark . Of course, a high risk also meant a high return; many special materials and equipment in the game could only be collected from nocturnal monsters . Therefore, there were many players at night in War .

For Snipers, who relied on vision the most, night was undoubtedly very unsuitable for combat . Feng Luo was preparing to put away his M110, thinking he would take a break or shift positions to a more obvious place . At that moment, a series of windy whoosh sounds could be heard above his head . A moment later, the entire Town of Exiles was brightened by ammunitions exploding in the air!

Looking up over his head, Feng Luo saw flares suspending in the air like small suns . “Tactical flares?” he said, a little surprised .

These flares, which were unique to this game, could last for more than half an hour and were the most desirable consumables for many players fighting in the dark . Because the price was so expensive and they were such rare items, general players could not get them . Only NPC forces could afford to fire hundreds of them into the skies .

Thanks to the flares, the problem of limited vision was solved, and Feng Luo aborted his plan to change position . As a Sniper, he had never tried to fight at night in the game, so this would be a novel experience for him .

Repositioning the M110, Feng Luo began to focus on an A-50 Tiger mech 50 meters away from town .

The rebel forces were using a lot of mechs and armored vehicles to attack together in all directions, causing great trouble to the defenders . In particular, the four A-50 Tiger-style mechs, along with their own heavy firepower and defense, had destroyed many defensive structures in the Town of Exiles .

However, the more conspicuous a player was on the battlefield, the more attention it drew . Hence, the mech spearheading the attack had been damaged very badly, and the heavy machine guns and the cannon on its back had ceased fire .

Boom!

A shell from the guards fell on the left side of the mech and hit the mech’s armor, bursting into pieces . There were also many remote attacks from the manipulators in the town, such as wind blades and fireballs .

There were reasons for the players to attack so zealously—despite the fact that when the mech was destroyed, there was no way to collect any items from it . This kind of mechanical unit was recognized as an Elite or even a Commander level by the system and would definitely award players with more medal points than those of mutant beasts or ordinary rebel soldiers .

Additionally, if a weak spot was hit and its core structure was destroyed, with a player striking the final blow, many medal points would be awarded (the mechanical unit had no life points, so the core needed to be destroyed in order to destroy the unit) .

The weak spot of the Tiger mech was located on the right side of the abdomen . Feng Luo knew this because he had studied the structure of the mech and knew the position of the core control chip . If the control chip could be destroyed, the mech would lose control, and the unit would be deemed by the system as having been destroyed .

However, the weak spot of this kind of mech was thoroughly protected by alloy armor . Even if Feng Luo had used the M110 in his hand with D-class double armor-piercing bullets, it would have been impossible to directly damage the control chip of this Tiger mech because a layer of high-alloy armor was protecting it .

Although the damage factor of the double armor-piercing bullet was high, the kinetic energy of the 7 . 62mm bullet was not enough to support the penetration of such thick armor . Therefore, Feng Luo did not even think about getting a final blow . He just thought about landing a few shots on the mech . When it was finally destroyed, he could get some experience points and medal points based on the contribution percentage .

However, the situation on the battlefield changed with time . No one expected that the control core of the Tiger mech would suddenly be exposed .

Just after Feng Luo aimed with the M110 and took two insignificant shots, a shell from the guard’s fort happened to hit the ammunition box on the right side of the Tiger mech .

Boom!

There was a thunderous bang, along with orange flames and thick black smoke, and the armor protecting the chip was torn off by the explosion .

“An opportunity!”

Watching this through the sniper rifle’s scope, Feng Luo was astounded . Without any hesitation, he instinctively aimed at the position of the Tiger mech’s control chip, and the trigger was pulled .

Bang!

The M110 made a dull bang, and an armor-piercing bullet tore through the air, spinning at high speed over a distance of more than 300 meters . It passed through the black smoke pouring from the Tiger mech and plunging into its body .

Click!

The five-meter body of the Tiger mech was suddenly stunned, then bombarded by many players who also noticed the breakthrough .

Level-50 Tiger A-50 mech destroyed . Contribution 10 . 2% . 306 medal points obtained from Town of Exiles 1022 .

Unfortunately, these players were one step too slow!
