Chapter 593: Hesitation in Battle
Chapter 593: Hesitation in Battle
At this moment.
Within the secret battlefield.
The members of the underground dark organizations stared solemnly at the tall, solitary figure across from them.
This included Li Sheng and Zhong Lan, who had initially looked at Ling Zhan with disdain.
As well as the Storm Demon King Otto and the Dark Church’s Saint Cooklet.
And the Dream Whisperers named David and Adele.
These six core members were also the main combat force in this operation to take down Ling Zhan.
The remaining nine members, from various organizations, were all formidable in their own right.
Yet this lavish lineup, capable of even eliminating elite squads, faced only one non-specialist lone warrior, and they were all cautious and wary.
Their previous expressions of disdain, contempt, and derision were nowhere to be seen.
Such a stark contrast was nothing short of ironic.
“Hurry up and make a move!”
“Sixteen against one, are you really waiting for him to make the first move?”
The spectators watching this scene couldn’t help but urge with annoyance.
“Are you Dark Churchists really this pathetic?”
“Sixteen against one, and you’re all just standing around?”
“What’s going on!?”
Online, the chat threads were filled with ridicule at that moment.
“Damn it...”
Seeing themselves ridiculed by the masses, the high-ranking members of the dark organizations gritted their teeth furiously!
Originally...
They wanted to use this death match to kill Ling Zhan and the national corps’ elites, while simultaneously establishing their terrifying reputation worldwide.
The stronger their reputation, the more people would worship them, and the more followers they would gain.
But now...
It was backfiring.
Though they did kill some elite members of the national corps, the losses were still acceptable for those armies.
On the other hand...
They were getting more than they bargained for.
Not only did they fail to take down their primary target, but they were being ridiculed as clowns by the masses.
To them, it was nothing short of a slap in the face!
“Was this move of ours a mistake?”
“Did we underestimate this non-specialist lone warrior?”
“Sixteen against one, and we don’t even dare to make a move!”
“This... sigh!”
The eagle-headed Tier Four Battle God Herman sighed helplessly.
And what made him feel even more helpless...
Was that he couldn’t blame Li Sheng, Zhong Lan, and the others for not making a move.
They had all witnessed Macmillan’s fate after he rushed in recklessly, only to be instantly killed by a simple mistake!
After that...
Who would dare to make a reckless move?
They were reckless, yes, but they weren’t seeking death!
They weren’t like the ordinary brainwashed believers.
Andrea, who was standing nearby, seemed less concerned after communicating with Witch Kathy, and instead watched the scene with a calm expression.
Hmm...
She became even more determined to study maternal and child care.
This non-specialist lone warrior definitely had the qualifications to be her partner.
No...
She should reconsider whether she had the qualifications to be his partner!
But she was too lazy to think about it.
Right now, Ling Zhan hadn’t yet truly grown, and as a Tier Four powerhouse, she could still suppress him.
She wouldn’t miss the chance this time.
As long as she could suppress this little man, she must get her hands on him!
As for Witch Kathy’s opinion...
She couldn’t care less!
She’d just avoid her in the future if needed!
Besides, once this little man fully grew, she wouldn’t have anything to fear!
But...
Could she really secure this non-specialist lone warrior?
Achieving her goal depended entirely on her ability to suppress him.
But it seemed like even that had now become uncertain.
.........
.........
“What? Sixteen of you against one of me, and not a single one of you dares to make a move?”
At this moment.
Within the secret battlefield.
Ling Zhan suddenly smiled.
But that smile carried a cold, mocking undertone.
As soon as the words fell.
Li Sheng, Zhong Lan, and the others wore expressions of shame and anger.
It had been a long time since anyone had mocked them like this!
Moreover...
They had to admit...
That deep down, they were genuinely afraid of this seemingly omnipotent non-specialist lone warrior!
Whoever made the first move would die!
This intuition was ingrained in everyone’s minds.
“Alright, since you won’t make a move, then I will!”
Ling Zhan had lost interest in wasting time.
Crack!!
As soon as his words fell.
The Thousand Mechanisms Ring shone brightly, instantly transforming into a highly imposing anti-materiel sniper rifle!!
The long black barrel bore a distinctive golden dragon pattern.
This was an enchantment carved with Azure Dragon essence by Meng Shuang.
The moment the dragon rifle appeared...
Roar!!
A resonant dragon roar echoed in everyone’s ears!
“Armor-piercing parameter 62; penetration parameter 21; precision parameter 17...”
The bullet parameters were adjusted in an instant!
By now, Ling Zhan had become extremely proficient in using the dragon rifle.
Loading and adjusting the bullet’s power parameters took less than a second.
He aimed the dark muzzle at the fifteen figures in the distance.
If it were anyone else pointing a gun at Li Sheng and the others.
They would still be laughing and mocking.
But now...
It was Ling Zhan aiming at them!
They couldn’t ignore it; instead, they braced themselves with the utmost vigilance!
“Boring...”
“I didn’t expect you all to be such cowards.”
“One more thing, if you don’t make a move soon, my skills will be off cooldown again.”
Facing enemies who had never held back before, Ling Zhan, for once, seemed in a good mood and even said a few extra words.
He even kindly reminded them about his cooldowns.
As soon as the words fell.
It was clear that the pressure on this group of people increased even more!
They couldn’t help but recall the scene where Ling Zhan had instantaneously killed twenty-nine level 99 puppets.
“Attack!! We can’t drag this out any longer!!”
“He’s breaking down our psychological defenses with his words!”
“If we don’t charge, we’re as good as dead!”
At this moment.
The Storm Demon King Otto roared.
His words finally jolted the group, who were feeling suffocated by the pressure!
“That’s right! Attack together!”
“I don’t believe he has three heads and six arms, capable of killing us all at once!”
Li Sheng quickly agreed.
As these words were spoken, the fifteen people finally moved!
Whoosh!!
Leading the charge were the nine lower-ranked members of the organization!
They knew they were being used by Li Sheng as fodder!
Even so, they had no choice but to comply!
They were, after all, ranked below these saints and saintesses.
