I have an Apocalypse City chapter-545-night

Chapter 545: Chapter 545: Night

Kun Jue felt his cheeks burning hot, two consecutive failures made a ball of fire rise in his heart, his two red eyes twisted his face into a fierce and distorted expression.

During his first ambush on Song Jian, he was poisoned by the wild bee king. This kind of continuous damage made it impossible for him to use his stealth skills. Once he got injured in his invisible state, he would automatically reveal himself;

Left with no choice, Kun Jue could only use a smoke bomb to escape;

In order to get rid of the bee king’s poison from his body, Kun Jue even used a super antidote potion. This kind of potion could only be made by a master pharmacist. Kun Jue had only obtained it by accident after completing a task.

He had spent a precious detox elixir but failed to kill the target, which made Kun Jue feel utterly humiliated. Once recovered, Kun Jue couldn’t wait to strike again, but he never expected that Song Jian could reflect his attacks, and the opponent’s damage was extremely high; one move could take away a third of his vitality points. If Song Jian was allowed to attack, Kun Jue might be instantly killed by him.

“Am I supposed to admit defeat? Let those in my organization mock me? No, I have to kill him, kill this god-favored one!” Kun Jue gnashed his teeth, blood seeping between them, but he didn’t seem to feel any pain.

Song Jian stared at the empty wilderness and put away his iron wings, feeling a little regret in his heart;

Though his damage was already strong, he didn’t have much control over his abilities. Professionals like Kun Jue, who could fight and run as they pleased, gave him a headache.

Being watched constantly felt like a dark cloud hanging over his head and just wouldn’t go away. In response, Song Jian hesitated for a moment before deciding not to return to the military camp town but headed towards the Shadowfang Mountain Range instead.

Song Jian’s map was far more detailed than the simple version provided by Qi Yun. According to the map’s directions, it would only take four or five days to reach the Shadowfang Mountain Range at Song Jian’s speed. If he could hire a mount in the military camp town, he could potentially arrive one or two days earlier.

As night fell, large dark clouds appeared in the sky, looking just like in Doomsday City. Song Jian sat before a bonfire, sighing quietly. It seemed impossible to absorb moonlight essence tonight.

However, even if he could absorb it, Song Jian wouldn’t dare to do so now. The feeling of being watched was always lingering in his heart. The opponent was unlikely to give up in the night, an environment perfect for ambushes.

With a thought, thirty blood crows appeared beside Song Jian. In no time, the crows were evenly distributed within a hundred-meter radius around him. Any slight movement or sound would prompt him to discover it and react;

While blood crows had a weak attack, they could fly for a long time without eating, drinking or resting, making them excellent scouts; they could even be compared to wild zombies;

Next, Song Jian summoned thirty blood wolves, spreading them out, so that it would be impossible to conceal their scent from these sharp-smelling creatures even if Kun Jue were to enter a stealth state;

Only after setting up layers of defenses did Song Jian lay down to rest. He didn’t believe that the blood crows and blood wolves alone could stop Kun Jue. However, it would be incredibly difficult for Kun Jue to approach him unnoticed.

As long as the blood crows and blood wolves could detect Kun Jue’s traces, Song Jian was confident he could kill his opponent, or at least force him to retreat.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was late at night. The bonfire slowly dimmed, and Song Jian lay motionless by its side. With only the slight rise and fall of his chest, it seemed he had fallen deep into sleep.

Suddenly, Song Jian’s eyes snapped open. A cold chill crawled from his chest and spread throughout his body. Alarm bells rang in his heart. Although the blood crows and blood wolves hadn’t signaled to him any danger, Song Jian knew that he was in grave danger;

A phantom clone appeared in Song Jian’s resting position. Song Jian rolled to the side, hiding in a dark corner;

“What’s going on? How did he manage to silently break through the defenses of the blood crows and blood wolves?” Song Jian’s forehead was drenched in sweat. At first, he felt slightly drowsy, but now it was like he had been doused with cold water, and he was wide awake;

Just then, Song Jian saw a bean-sized red dot appear on the chest of the phantom clone lying on the ground. The dot quickly moved up to the clone’s head and stayed there for a moment before it moved back to its chest, remaining still;

“Is this… an infrared sight?” Song Jian narrowed his eyes as he stared at the red dot and suddenly understood the opponent’s tactic;

The Death God’s Scythe’s killer also possessed long-range sniping capabilities that he hadn’t revealed during the day;

“Using the infrared sight, his position should be between three hundred and five hundred meters away from here…” Song Jian glanced into the pitch-black wilderness following the direction of the infrared line, a fierce glint flashing through his eyes;

Suddenly, a cloud of black mist floated upwards from where Song Jian had been and flew towards the distance;

At that moment, a muffled sound came from a distance. While the sound wasn’t loud, it was carried clearly into Song Jian’s ears in the dead of night;

“He even installed a silencer… So his firing range has been reduced, it should be within three hundred meters!” Without even looking at the phantom clone, Song Jian flew straight towards where he believed Kun Jue was hiding;

At this time, Kun Jue was lying on top of a rock, observing Song Jian through the night vision scope of his sniper rifle;

Since Song Jian had laid down, Kun Jue had patiently waited, just like a hunting cheetah prey. Waiting for hours wasn’t a problem as long as he found the perfect time to strike;

When Kun Jue believed Song Jian was sound asleep, he finally set up his sniper shot. To improve accuracy, he had also installed an infrared laser sight. But as he pulled the trigger, he realized something was awry when the bullet penetrated the target’s chest without any blood pouring out. His face changed, heart sinking;

“How could this be, how did he find out about me?!” Kun Jue hammered the rock beneath him with anger, quickly packing up his sniper rifle and getting ready to leave;

At that moment, he didn’t notice a cloud of black mist slowly approaching him from above. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
