Seraphina Sullivan didn’t hesitate for a moment.
Surrounded by her `Fiery Sunflower Guardian God`.
The moment she became completely immune to her opponent’s spiritual interference, the initiative in this battle was firmly in her hands!
She raised the muzzle of her `Universal Sniper Rifle` slightly, its `Spirit Scope` instantly locking onto the distant blonde figure.
Cecilia!
The core `Control` of their team. She had to be eliminated first.
Seraphina didn’t choose the costly `Space Bullet`.
Nor did she opt for a conventional `Fire Bomb` or `Energy Bullet`.
Facing an enemy with strange abilities who was protected by a teammate with powerful armor, she needed something both unexpected and lethal.
Her mind raced.
Seraphina selected a special `Skill`.
`Magic Scissors`!
Her `spiritual power` flooded the rifle’s chamber, and the `Skill`’s model was rapidly compressed, converted, and molded!
A bullet materialized in her mind—it was pure silver-white, small and exquisite, as if woven from countless fine metallic threads.
Its surface shimmered with a strange, cutting luster. The `Magic Scissors Bullet`!
CRACK!
The sound of the shot was faint.
In almost the same instant, Sean Chandler moved!
He let out a low roar as brilliant crystals instantly covered his entire body, transforming him into an indestructible `Diamond Warrior`!
He stomped his feet, and the ground cracked beneath them.
Like a cannonball shot from its barrel, he charged fearlessly toward Alvin, the man in the center of the opposing five-person squad!
He had to tie down their strongest ranged attacker to create a window for Seraphina’s kill shot.
"They’re making their move! Defend!"
Patton roared, holding his giant axe horizontally before him.
"Protect Cecilia!" Lina’s figure flickered and she entered a stealth state, preparing to ambush them at the right moment.
But it was Gru who reacted the fastest!
He was already half-kneeling on the ground, maintaining his `Earth Armor`.
The instant Seraphina’s rifle fired, he had already roared and shot to his feet!
A thick, earthen-yellow light erupted from his body, and his skin rapidly became as rough and hard as granite.
The massive phantom of a `Shield` formed from pure earth `Energy` materialized before him, completely shielding Cecilia from view!
`Earth Armor·Shield of Rock`!
This was the defensive `Skill` he had the most confidence in; it had once withstood the pounce of an elite zombie and even a small explosion!
He firmly believed that this `Shield`, condensed from the `Power of Earth`, was enough to block any ranged attack and buy his teammates time!
However...
WHOOSH!
The silver-white `Magic Scissors Bullet` silently crossed the few hundred meters between them at supersonic speed.
It precisely... struck the solid, earthen-yellow `Energy Shield` in front of Gru!
There was no explosion, no penetration, not even much of a sound.
But the moment the bullet touched the `Shield`, something bizarre happened!
The bullet seemed to "melt" like quicksilver.
It transformed into a strange, silver-white radiance, like liquid metal.
It quickly spread across the `Shield`’s surface, tracing a pattern!
In the blink of an eye, the phantom of a giant pair of silver scissors, glinting with a cold, terrifying light, "materialized" out of thin air on the `Energy Shield`!
The blades of the scissors were positioned right at the `Shield`’s center!
And then—
SNIP! SNIP! SNIP!
