“Come deliver…”

Felt’s voice abruptly cut off with the sound of a gunshot. All the guild members looked towards their guild leader in confusion. Those who saw Felt had a massive shock.

A bloody bullet hole was on Felt’s forehead. His life had dwindled to zero.

Moreover, a Shield Warrior standing behind Felt had also been shot through the chest.

The two of them stood dumbfounded for two seconds before collapsing.

A haunting silence ensued. No one knew what was going on. Some people looked up at the cliff. They only saw three fingers slowly extending out and a voice saying, “As I promised, that was the third time.”

Not just the guild members, but even Robert and Felt were shocked. They didn’t even know how they died. They were taken out from a range of more than 300 yards. My God, what can attack from 300 yards away?

“Sniper rifle. Only a sniper rifle could have a range this long,” Robert said, picking up the bullet lodged in the dirt.

“I’m not surprised that a sniper rifle would have a range of 300+ yards. I just didn’t expect Prairie Fire to be this sneaky. We’ve admitted defeat this time,” Felt said calmly on team voice chat, as if he wasn’t the person who got killed three times.

“But…” Robert was not willing to give up.

“I know you’re unwilling to concede but there’s nothing we can do. We can only take hits here. We can’t reach the cliffs. To find a way up, we’d have to circle half the map, and the terrain above the cliffs is complex. Even if ordinary players go up there, they can only be killed.” As Felt said this, he suddenly got a jolt.

Robert also realized the situation. Both of them shouted in the guild chat simultaneously, “Oh no, run! We’re still within his firing range.”

Li Yao saw the commotion among the crowd below and said, “It seems you’ve noticed. But it’s too late. Let me guide your departure.”

Arrow Rain!

Scatter! Scatter! Scatter! Scatter! Scatter…

Li Yao’s attacks were unusually strong. When he used a sniper rifle, although his firing rate dropped to once per second, the damage and range reached a terrifying level.

The rain of arrows launched by Li Yao, along with a barrage of bullets, instantly took down many cloth armor mages.

Li Yao’s Scatter attack was even more terrifying. A dense volley of magic bullets shot into the crowd. Although their formation was scattered, as Li Yao attacked, elite guild members fell like mowed wheat.

Although the Arna guild was fierce, Li Yao was too high up. They simply couldn’t attack him.

Even if they were gods, as long as they couldn’t reach him, there was no use.

No matter how reluctant and frustrated they were, the only solution now was to escape.

“Everyone, don’t panic.” Robert’s eyes were practically spitting fire. They were the guild’s most elite team yet they were getting slaughtered like harvested wheat fields. “Shield Warriors, Mountain Warriors, all melee professions that have shields, take out your shields. Form Shield Walls by team units. Healers and ranged damage dealers, stand closely behind the frontline fighters. Quickly.”

Despite the chaos, their quality and numerous experiences with such hardships shone through. It was just that they were caught off guard just now which made them panic-stricken.

Now hearing Robert’s calm voice, they quickly regained their senses. They realized that if they kept up like this, they could only get slaughtered.

Just like their swift advancement earlier, they quickly organized without a hint of chaos.

“True to being a major guild, they really are something. The Starfire guild still has a long way to go,” Li Yao took a swig of the Mana Potion and continued firing rapidly.

But clearly, hardly any ranged targets were left for Li Yao to attack. The frontline combatants were all raising their shields high and retreating slowly with the aid of healers.

Li Yao had fully transformed into a demonic figure, attacking crazily. By the time the remaining people had left Li Yao’s attack range, a heap of bodies was scattered on the ground.

Only less than half of the elite guild members managed to run out of his striking range.

Every surviving player was fuming with rage, and Robert was panting heavily. He was so angry that his whole body was shaking.

“It seems you’re unwilling to admit defeat,” Li Yao said, putting away his sniper rifle and using his boot’s jumping ability to move quickly from above.

“Damn it, he wants to wipe us out, doesn’t he?” Robert cursed before shouting, “Run, quick. He can’t move as fast as us from up there.”

The members of the Arna guild immediately began running at full speed. Li Yao moving irregularly above naturally could not catch up with them and was quickly left behind.

Li Yao didn’t chase after them, he went back to his original place. He then saw a stone column in the middle of the bodies, standing 200 yards tall.

Immediately, he spread his wings and flew on top of the stone column. At this moment, he was in the middle of the valley floor, with corpses scattered all around him from above.

From this position, Li Yao could look down at the entire scene below. Li Yao had already disengaged from battle and entered a stealth state.

Li Yao set up his sniper rifle on the column and quietly waited. After a while, Li Yao saw a few Priests with resurrection skills sneaking along the bottom’s corner, quietly running over.

“Just as I thought, they’re still not giving up and want to save people. It’s too much wishful thinking,”

Li Yao didn’t act hastily, but quietly waited for them to approach. As soon as each of them had resurrected one person, Li Yao pulled the trigger.

Bang…

With the sound of a gun, a Priest fell to the ground. After that, Li Yao kept firing.

“It’s Prairie Fire, he’s on the column.” The Shaman girl’s voice was full of rage, but there was absolutely nothing she could do about it.

Li Yao was too high up, they simply couldn’t attack him and they couldn’t run away either. A few healers, knowing there was no escape, began healing the players who were just revived.

However, their efforts were in vain. It didn’t matter if they were at full health, because once they were hit by Li Yao’s sniper rifle, there was only one outcome – instant death.

Soon, the gunshots ceased. The healers ended up dying, and those players who just got resurrected lost even more experience and died again.

“Guild Leader, Prairie Fire is on a high point. We can’t rescue anyone. Should we give up and come back?” Robert didn’t know what to do.

It took Felt a long while before he responded on the team chat, “Don’t come back. There’s no point, we’d only be courting death.”

“Then…” Robert spoke hesitantly…

Felt took a deep breath before saying, “Give up, let’s resurrect in the graveyard and return to the city.”

Every single one of their guild members, with their eyes filled with frustration and rage, had no way to deal with Li Yao in this unique terrain…
