Holy crap!
Carlos's soul was almost scared out of him.
He had clearly instructed the logistics personnel closest to the gate button in the corridor to press the button, so why did the iron gate go up again just as it was about to fully close?
Initially, he thought it was Lily's natural divine strength, that she had directly lifted the iron gate, but upon closer inspection, Lily's body hadn't even touched the iron gate.
In an instant, he thought of Qian Assistant Officer's ability, who had just been killed. Could it be that this silver-haired girl also had a similar ability to Qian Assistant Officer?
Qian Assistant Officer could only control objects weighing a few kilograms at most, but even so, he was already the strongest person in Bagaros Base before Gedo and Yulia arrived. Yet, the silver-haired girl could manipulate an iron gate weighing over a ton. The difference…
Carlos felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He had no doubt that this silver-haired girl, if serious, could single-handedly tear this underground base to shreds.
He stood there dumbfounded, watching the door open wider and wider, no longer able to muster any thought of resistance.
He was dead today.
Seeing Lily's face also appear, Carlos suddenly reacted. He almost forgot, he still had one last plan, a secret technique passed down in his family.
"I surrender, don't kill me!"
Carlos immediately knelt on the ground.
His speed was too fast, even faster than an orphan Yasuo's E-ing around. Neither his teammates, nor Lily, the players, or the Four Directions agents' question marks could keep up with him.
"?"
When Lily used [Custom Card: Combat Etiquette] on the person who was pressing the close button, making him press the button again to raise the door, she knew this action would scare the people on the other side of the door. But she never expected the intimidation effect to be so outrageous.
One must know that Carlos was the head of Bagaros Base, and eliminating him came with a separate mission reward.
This time, it was truly an outward display of royal aura, and the enemy bowed down in submission.
The players who saw this scene from behind were all dumbfounded.
[Is this like activating Conqueror's Haki?]
[Damn, it's bad enough that the BOSS in this wilderness dungeon runs away, but now they surrender?]
[How strong is Lily exactly?]
[Come see the God of War!]
[Is Truth Society that weak? I even thought about joining Truth Society before.]
Carlos could never have imagined that his actions would deal such a heavy blow to the image of the Truth Society. The stark contrast between him and Lily made many players who had intended to join the Truth Society waver.
Lily is so fierce, and Truth Society is so weak. If they rashly join Truth Society, will they end up getting nothing good and Truth Society just gets destroyed?
While these players hesitated, Gedo, who witnessed Carlos's surrender, was about to explode.
Damn it, even if Lily is strong, what's with this direct surrender?
As a loyal servant of the Truth Society, Gedo furiously raised his gun.
However, before he could act, Lily fired three shots at Carlos's face.
A shotgun blast to the head at close range instantly turned Carlos's head into a bloody mess. Under the impact of the pellets, brain tissue sprayed out like a fountain, splattering the nearby wall.
Lily breathed a sigh of relief.
That was close. Thankfully, her reaction was swift, otherwise this kill would have been snatched by the person opposite her.
[You killed Carlos, the head of Bagaros Base. Contribution: 100%. After correction based on level difference, you gained 12500 experience points.]
[You killed a Truth Society member. Additional reward: 1000 experience points.]
[You completed the mission [Beheading Operation]. Contribution: 100%. Reward: 50000 experience points.]
After a series of notifications, Lily found that she had enough experience to level up again. She didn't deliberately suppress her level and directly leveled up Spiritual Energy Prayer Master to Lv7.
Now that the head and assistant officer of Bagaros Base were dead, it was time to collect the final mission rewards.
"Quickly clear out this base, then turn back to encircle the Truth Society ambushers outside."
Lily commanded.
The players who had reacted were the first to cross the re-raised iron gate and charge into the base. Then Si and Shino also reacted and quickly followed behind the players, launching a charge. They didn't want to be in a state where the battle was over and they hadn't fired a single shot; that would be too embarrassing.
The entire Bagaros Base instantly plunged into chaos.
Qian Assistant Officer and Carlos died too quickly. The remaining base members, even if they knew Gedo and Yulia were powerful, found it difficult to believe that the two of them could withstand Lily.
"Run!"
"Go notify Luo Doctor!"
"Notify my ass! Contacting headquarters is the key."
In fact, let alone these miscellaneous soldiers, Gedo was also very nervous. He had long felt that he might not be able to defeat Lily, and after what just happened, he was even more convinced.
Therefore, when he saw Yulia walk out of the room, he quickly walked over.
"Old Qian and Carlos are both dead. Lily seems to have an ability that can lift iron gates. It's best if we retreat temporarily and plan for the long term."
Yulia's blue eyes flickered slightly: "Are you sure she used an ability to lift the iron gate just now, and not Ling Neng (Spiritual Energy) to control the person pressing the button?"
"Hmm?"
Gedo was stunned for a moment.
By the time he came to his senses, Yulia had already grabbed a person trying to run past and threw that person in front of him.
"He was pressing the button just now. Ask him if he was the one who opened the door?"
Under Gedo's fierce glare, the captured logistics personnel's legs went soft with fear.
