But what the female assassin didn't expect was that Excavation Princess, after being stabbed, broke free from her restraints as if nothing had happened.
Turn, draw, shoot—all in one fluid motion.
Didn't expect that, did you? I didn't turn on the pain receptors!
The female assassin tilted her neck, dodging quickly, but the burning pain that suddenly flared up on her neck continued to stimulate her nerves.
"You're asking for death!"
She made a move to stab Excavation Princess to death.
The other three assassins hidden in the shadows quickly stepped out: "Calm down, the employer wants her alive."
"How can I calm… "
The female assassin's words were cut short by several gunshots from the shadows, which instantly sobered her.
"An ambush!"
The Four Directions assassins' expressions changed drastically. They quickly spread out and confirmed that the person ambushing them didn't have very good aim. They secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but this time they still underestimated their opponents.
Although the players' individual strength was suppressed by them, the players not only had a numerical advantage but also had the Calamity Dragon providing intel from above.
What happens when Four Directions experts fight against a dozen rookies who have full map vision and are completely fearless of death?
"Why are bullets coming from such places?"
"How did they find me?"
"How many of them are there?"
"Damn, I got shot in the butt!"
The Four Directions assassins, without vision in the dark, grew increasingly alarmed as they fought. Their opponents said nothing, simply firing coldly. For a moment, they had the illusion that they were the good guys and the ones opposite them were the real assassins.
The female assassin gritted her teeth and fixated on the fallen Excavation Princess. Perhaps only by controlling the "Lily" bait could they escape successfully.
"I'll suppress their firepower; you're responsible for kidnapping that woman."
Her body transformed into a shadow and disappeared from her original spot. The remaining three assassins also disregarded everything else. They began to constantly move to dodge bullets and gradually approached Excavation Princess.
After a chaotic exchange, one of the assassins rolled in front of Excavation Princess. He drew his gun, pointed it at Excavation Princess's forehead, and shouted, "Everyone stop! Otherwise, I'll kill her right now!"
His response was even denser gunfire.
Bang, bang, bang!
Bullets rained down, hitting Excavation Princess and also hitting that assassin.
The assassin's eyes were wide open even as he fell to the ground. He completely couldn't understand why these people hidden in the dark would even kill Lily. Could it be that they weren't on the same side?
The female assassin, who had just used her superpower to take down a player, was also stunned by this scene.
What's the point of fighting when you encounter a bunch of lunatics like this?!
She just wanted to run now.
But just as she was about to act, Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky suddenly rushed out from the side.
The Iron Rain Guild had turned this into a stage for their performance; they were completely going all out now!
So what if the opponent was strong? Even if they would be killed after only delaying for a few seconds, as long as they could hold out until Lily arrived, all their sacrifices would be worth it.
For Lily's favorability, charge, ah ah ah!
One Iron Rain Guild player rushed out, two Iron Rain Guild players rushed out, three...
They shouted as they charged.
"How dare you assassinate Lily? I'm sending you to hell right now!"
"Die, die, die! Everyone who dares to oppose Lily, die!"
"Holy crap, how dare you target Lily."
The female assassin was numb. Seeing this scene, she thought she had stumbled into a fan meeting for some idol's fanatics.
No, if you respect Lily so much, why did you just shoot her to death in the crossfire?
Patrick Star and the others were also dumbfounded.
My goodness, so the Iron Rain Guild were also fanatical supporters of Lily? This was truly unexpected. Convert to My Lily couldn't help but wonder if his own support for Lily was insufficient, after all, he hadn't rushed out directly to block the three assassins like those from the Iron Rain Guild.
The female assassin stabbed the nearest player in the heart. Just as she was about to deal with the next player, she was astonished to find that the player, whose heart had been stabbed, was desperately clinging to her leg.
They're not dead yet?
"Get off me!"
She kicked the player on the ground away, then transformed into a shadow, appearing behind Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky.
Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky, sensing danger, gathered his qi and exploded, slamming his elbow into the female assassin's lower abdomen. This move came extremely swiftly, forcing the female assassin to block it with her right hand.
"Hit… no!"
