Chapter 2352 - 1846: Deadly Poison!

First update, asking for subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~...

A fighter with that kind of strength, who also moonlights as a Gunman—normally, that's definitely someone insanely strong… absolutely capable of killing a Great Grandmaster Level Expert. That alone made Qin Fang have to stay on high alert against this person!

After dodging that extremely dangerous shot, Qin Fang immediately concealed himself and began searching for the opponent's location…

"There he is…"

Because the distance between the two sides was very close, Qin Fang had just escaped when he quickly found that Gunman's position.

Only…

"Huh? How can this be?"

Qin Fang suddenly froze for a moment, then carefully confirmed several times over before he was sure he wasn't seeing things—this was really happening… his Mini-map Function was being heavily restricted here. It hadn't completely failed, but it was pretty much the same.

"Formation suppression? Or some other reason…"

Qin Fang couldn't help muttering to himself. The Minor Kunlun Realm was hidden within some ancient Formation and had existed for who knows how many years, but—

You know, even in that Mystic Realm in Japan Qin Fang entered before, in the maze on Devil's Island, and in that Underground Palace not long ago, his Mini-map Function had never had any problems. It helped him solve a ton of trouble.

But now…

The coverage range of the mini-map had been suppressed to a terrifying degree, almost only able to detect the two or three meters around his body. That wasn't even as good as his naked eye.

Qin Fang's brows were tightly knitted. This situation was definitely not good news for him, and as for why it was like this, he couldn't figure it out… but it did force him to respond with extreme caution. This Minor Kunlun Realm was probably far more dangerous than he had imagined.

The reason this Gunman could fire at him from such close range without Qin Fang noticing beforehand was because he didn't show up on the mini-map at all… otherwise, this Gunman wouldn't have had any chance to make a move on him.

At such a close distance, with them being enemies, Qin Fang would definitely have strangled him first before the other side even found him… how could he possibly have let the guy calmly take a shot at him?

The man was hiding in a corner of the mountainside, in a very concealed spot, but with an excellent field of view… if he deliberately hid himself like that, without the mini-map's assistance, it really would've been hard for Qin Fang to discover his presence from his original position.

But now that this Gunman had exposed his hiding place, Qin Fang naturally wouldn't be polite.

The Gunman seemed extremely shocked as well—shocked that Qin Fang had actually dodged his shot… even a Great Grandmaster Level Expert would find it very difficult to avoid that, yet Qin Fang had done it, which stunned him for a moment.

But when he realized Qin Fang had suddenly vanished, he immediately concealed himself again, then cautiously started searching for Qin Fang's whereabouts…

Bang~~~

After he waited a while and didn't hear any movement, he also felt something was off. Only then did he carefully stick his head out to look for Qin Fang, his gun kept ready to fire at any time.

However, before he could react, he felt himself being locked on, and then… a single shot hit him right between the brows, and he fell to the ground on the spot.

"You really thought you're the only one who's got a gun?"

Qin Fang blew away the smoke at the muzzle and gave a very disdainful laugh as he spoke.

After discovering the opponent's location, Qin Fang hadn't rushed over to kill him. Instead, he went to ground as well, picked a spot with a good angle of view, and just waited for the enemy to stick his head out… when the guy finally grew impatient and peeked, how could Qin Fang show any mercy? He directly sent him a bullet!

After dealing with this opponent, Qin Fang casually condensed that Green Fulu Poisonous Dragon into a thin cord and carelessly tied it around his waist… the Green Fulu Poisonous Dragon wasn't dead; it was still doing quite well.

A Viper of such a mutated species, with the ancient savage beast bloodline in its body, was not going to die so easily… Qin Fang still had some use for it, so he didn't strangle it to death. Since it posed no threat staying by his side, of course he kept it.

"Huh? Why no Experience Points…"

Only after tidying up the Green Fulu Poisonous Dragon and just about to leave did Qin Fang suddenly freeze for a moment, abruptly realize something, and mutter under his breath.

Killing a Grandmaster-level Expert might not give that many Experience Points, but even a mosquito's leg is still meat; Qin Fang wouldn't complain. Yet now, with no Experience Points reward notification appearing for so long, Qin Fang felt it was very strange.

"Don't tell me… he's not dead?"

That really made Qin Fang feel something was off.

Clearly, getting shot in the center of the brow is basically a death sentence, but he was actually still alive now, which really explained a lot.

With that in mind, Qin Fang slightly revised his original plan of just slipping away, and instead strolled unhurriedly toward the direction where that "dead man" was lying, walking neither fast nor heavy-footed, looking for all the world like nothing was out of the ordinary.

Only Qin Fang himself knew that his body was taut, always in a state of high alert; the instant that guy made even the slightest wrong move, Qin Fang would dodge or counterattack immediately.

The distance got closer and closer, and soon Qin Fang could vaguely see that mercenary's "corpse"... At the moment he was lying there motionless, his chest not rising at all, as if he really were dead.

However, Qin Fang had his Scouting Skill, and this guy had already entered the monitoring range of the Mini-map Function. Not only was he not dead, his Vitality still looked quite vigorous, which meant Qin Fang's earlier gunshot basically hadn't done a thing… that made it even more puzzling.

"Could this guy be a Metal Transformed Person?"

Qin Fang quickly thought of a reason; with that explanation, it more or less made sense.

Some Metal Transformed Persons are extremely powerful; Qin Fang had seen a few himself. Ordinary Zi Dan really have a hard time hurting them… this opponent taking a shot from Qin Fang and not dying was very likely one of those cases.

Ka~~

Just when Qin Fang was only a few meters from this "corpse," the corpse suddenly moved, sprang up from the ground, and directly raised his hand toward Qin Fang and fired a gunshot.

It was like this was a prearranged plan; this guy had been enduring all this time just to strike now.

International mercenaries are exactly this twisted; to achieve their objectives, they can endure all kinds of inhuman conditions. Even playing dead like this, he mimicked it to perfection, almost without a single flaw.

Not only had his breathing completely stopped, he'd even suppressed his heartbeat to a very low level…

He waited until Qin Fang stepped into his attack range, then suddenly went for the kill! At such close range, dodging was damn near impossible, and the chance of this Gunman succeeding was extremely high.

Swoosh~~~

But almost at the exact same moment this Metal Transformed Person made his move on Qin Fang, Qin Fang's wrist trembled and he flung something at him… the speed was extremely fast, and the angle extremely tricky, practically impossible to guard against.

Pa~~

However, this Metal Transformed Person didn't seem to care about Qin Fang's "Hidden Weapon" at all. His body could even block Zi Dan, so naturally he didn't bother with this kind of sneak attack; he didn't even spare it a glance, letting the thing slam into his chest with a crisp snap.

Then, just as he'd expected, there wasn't the slightest damage; that thing just lost strength and slid down…

The Metal Transformed Person had no interest in seeing what Qin Fang had actually thrown at him; his focus was on dealing a vicious blow to Qin Fang. The Desert Eagle in his hand immediately roared to life, Zi Dan spitting out one after another, streaking toward Qin Fang to kill.

Da-da-da~~

But if he thought he could kill Qin Fang just because of close range, then he was being way too naive.

Right when the Zi Dan were about to hit Qin Fang, it was as if they were blocked by something, making that crisp clanging sound, while Qin Fang just stood there without moving an inch, completely unscathed!

"Ah~~~"

And just then, right when this Metal Transformed Person thought he was about to take Qin Fang out, a burst of searing pain suddenly shot through his nearly flawless, incredibly well-defended body, and a miserable scream slipped out of his mouth before he could stop it.

Looking closely, he saw that a green Viper was coiled around his calf, its jaws wide open, Poison Fang sunk into his leg… even his Metal Transformed body couldn't stop its bite!

More accurately, that part of his leg seemed to have been completely corroded by venom; even the metal-enhanced skin couldn't block it, and the venom seeped straight into his body… he hadn't screamed like this even when he took a shot to the brow earlier, but now he couldn't hold it back!

That alone was enough to show how terrifying this Viper's venom was…

"Idiot…"

At this moment, Qin Fang, one of the masterminds behind this, couldn't help but curse with a laugh.

No denying it, this Metal Transformed Person was very strong—not only did he have Master Level Late-Stage cultivation, his body was knife- and gun-proof; his actual combat power might even be able to catch up to Qin Fang… It was a pity he never imagined he wouldn't die under Qin Fang's blade, but instead would go down under the Poison Fang of a Serpent.

The Green Fulu Poisonous Dragon had already become one of the top ten most infamous poisons in the entire Martial World a thousand years ago; the Martial World's experts were willing to mobilize en masse to hunt it down until it was completely wiped out. You could easily imagine how terrifying it was.

Only a freak like Qin Fang could withstand the Green Fulu Poisonous Dragon's extreme venom, whereas this Metal Transformed Person… even with his metal skin that could block Qin Fang's Zi Dan, he still couldn't bear the Green Fulu Poisonous Dragon's poison!
