The mercenary activated his skill and dashed straight into the basement.

Since all her followers had been driven away by the remaining survivors, Cassia could only control the original follower and chas after the mercenary downstairs.

On the other side, Ashley was stunned in place the moment another mercenary shot him.

Cassia stood in front of the chair, almost amused, watching the mercenary tap the chair, let go, tap it again, and hesitate again, a she swung. “Terror Shock” flashed across the screen.

But the mercenary had a special trait. Even after taking damage at full health, he wouldn’t go down for five seconds. To actually knock him down, you had to hit him again.

In other words, in Duo Hunters, other survivors went down in three hits, but a mercenary needed four.

Among Asymmetrical V players, this trait was commonly called “Mini Borrowed Time.”

The thercenary tanked the hit with that effect, rescued the perfumer, then turned to go for the mechanic.

Seeing Cassia had already finished her recovery, he raised his gun and fired.

A burst of dazzling sparks, and the mercenary dropped to the ground.

“Nice!”

Ashley and Ernest clapped, excited.

They’d been wondering why Cassia had moved behind the chair instead of toward the mechanic. Turns out she’d used the chair to block the shot.

Cassia followed up with another hit, and after taking four hits total, the mercenary finally collapsed.

Another mercenary rushed in, but Cassia stayed completely calm. She picked up the downed one and swung at the incoming

rescuer.

One hit. The second mercenary rescued the mechanic on the ground and even body–blocked another hit for her before the two of

them ran.

Cassia immediately went after that mercenary, but he spun around and dodged her attack.

Cassia raised a brow.

That had been flat ground, and she’d actually missed.

The mercenary on her shoulder struggled hard, so Cassia decided to leave the basement first and hook him outside.

Ashley spotted the escaping perfumer and knocked her down with one hit, then saw the mechanic and mercenary rushing out of

the basement.

The mercenary had already taken two hits and quickly used his elbow pads to dash away.

Ashley only managed to down the mechanic.

Having gotten revenge for Urban, Ashley didn’t overextend. After eliminating the perfumer, he hooked the mechanic as well.

in the basement, one mechanic, one perfumer, and one runner had already been eliminated, and all the chairs were used up. Outside, a mercenary and another mechanic were still on chairs.

A complete basement massacre.

At this point, only two runners and one mercenary remained on the field, and that mercenary had disappeared somewhere.

The last cipher machine was probably almost done. The mercenary on the chair couldn’t be rescued for more than 50 seconds, s Cassia and Ashley stayed to guard the mechanic.

The mechanic was eliminated quickly with no rescue, but that mercenary who had dodged Cassia’s attack earlier was nowhere to be seen. He might’ve found a syringe in a chest or been healed by teammates. Either way, he was back to full health now and heading toward the charged mercenary with a half–health runner.

The runner rolled straight to the chair, and both Ashley and Cassia landed a hit.

The runner went down, and the mercenary completed the rescue.

Buzz…

The final cipher machine was decoded. The runner got back up, thanks to Tide Turner, and rolled away.

Four survivors entered the endgame. One injured mercenary, one injured runner, one full–health runner, and one full–health

mercenary.

They didn’t see the full–health mercenary, only the full–health runner, so Cassia went straight after the runner.

Even though the runner rolled far, Cassia’s Witch’s main body wasn’t slow. Following the trail, she caught up quickly, switched to a follower, and landed a clean backstep hit. The runner went down.

After hooking the runner, Cassia headed toward the starting gate, since the last cipher had been near there.

Sure enough, the full–health mercenary who had dodged her earlier was opening the gate. Seeing Cassia’s follower approach, he

didn’t run.

That took guts.

Cassia watched him closely, guiding the original follower forward.
