570: Chapter 570: The Locally Made Sniper Rifle 570: Chapter 570: The Locally Made Sniper Rifle Having understood, Zhao Guang decided to give those seniors at the top a scare.
“I’ve got it, you notify those people and say that I’ve taken on the task.”
“Ah, should I go notify them?” Jeana pointed at herself, looking somewhat surprised.
“Exactly, you’re the one who’ll go notify them from now on, and you’ll be the one in charge of these matters in the future.”
Zhao Guang looked at Jeana’s adorably surprised expression and revealed a smile.
In the blink of an eye, Jeana had been following him for quite some time.
It may not have been long, but they had experienced a great deal together.
“Go with confidence, you are now a mid-level professional and a magic user.
You’re capable of handling things on your own.”
Xi Fei encouraged Jeana, but she still felt a little nervous.
But seeing her master so confident, Jeana had no choice but to muster her courage and go back.
It’s just communicating with others.
It’s not like she hadn’t done it before; she was even the deputy leader of the Sniper Team.
“Is the master trying to cultivate Jeana’s ability to handle affairs?” Jeana was young and highly moldable, and her talent was not bad either.
The most crucial point was that she was very close to both of them and extremely loyal to her master.
But Xi Fei hesitated a bit because Jeana was also quite close to the Beastmen, especially Aleya.
“Of course, it would be a waste not to nurture such a promising seedling properly.”
Zhao Guang was unconcerned.
As for the Beastmen, he had no worries at all.
Not to mention the constraints of a contract, Jeana wouldn’t betray him.
Even if the Beastmen really had any ulterior motives, how could it possibly affect him?
He was now a Great Mage, and even the Beastmen would not be able to easily scheme against him.
Only personal strength is reliable, and his strength would continue to increase.
He wouldn’t clutch power tightly in his hands but would gradually release it.
While grasping power, he would also get caught up in the vortex of power, leaving no time for himself.
Only by letting go would he have time to enhance his own abilities.
And as long as he possessed ample strength, power would naturally revolve around him.
The difference was whether he chose to reach out and touch it.
In the following period, Zhao Guang began planning for the exploration of ruins.
His Dawn Swordsmanship was incomplete, although it was currently sufficient, what about when he broke through again?
The incomplete parts of the Dawn Swordsmanship were of an advanced level, so what if it were complete?
There were many things coming up that he had wanted to do but lacked the ability to achieve.
Now it was different.
Ever since he broke through to the level of a Great Mage, he could finally accomplish those tasks.
Indeed, Zhao Guang regarded his own security as more important than anything else, always ensuring his safety first.
But before Zhao Guang could make meticulous plans, an unexpected incident happened again.
The northern border has been attacked, and it’s those Undead Mages again.
What are they trying to do?” Zhao Guang said in surprise upon receiving the news.
Why couldn’t those guys stay quiet?
It was necessary to understand that if the Undead Mages didn’t keep quiet, then he wouldn’t be able to leave his territory.
No matter what, the territory’s development could be flourishing, but right now, he was the only strong one.
There weren’t many other advanced professionals, and most of them were warriors.
In the face of those cunning Undead Mages, these advanced warriors were just too passive.
Zhao Guang didn’t believe that his subordinates would be able to hold them off if those Undead Mages launched a major attack after he left.
Indeed, he had too few powerful subordinates, and his own army was too weak.
“It was a sneak attack, but the method of attack was somewhat special.”
Qiao Miya took out a box and opened it, revealing some small, rod-like objects that were somewhat twisted.
“The enemy Undead Mages didn’t show up in person but used Alchemy Weapons to attack, very similar to our sniper rifles.
These are their bullets.”
With Qiao Miya’s narration and some reports sent from the frontline, Zhao Guang gradually understood the situation.
It turned out that there were snipers on the other side, too, whose sniper rifles didn’t look the same as their own, but the way they attacked was very similar, launching attacks from a great distance.
Often they hadn’t even seen them before they were attacked by the enemy.
Because of the enemy’s sudden attacks, quite a few Wolf Cavalry had died.
Although the Wolf Cavalry were furious, they couldn’t catch up with those people no matter what they did.
Rushing out recklessly would lead to even more losses, and this was not something they could solve.
“What about Elena then?
Can’t she catch up either?” Elena was an advanced Werewolf Cavalry.
“General Elena personally went after them but was focused down by fire and had to retreat due to serious injuries,” was the reply.
That was really troublesome.
After all, these were Beastmen from their side.
If Elena died here, Zhao Guang wouldn’t be able to explain himself.
The relationship with the Beastmen could possibly hit rock bottom.
Zhao Guang wasn’t foolish; it was clear to him that Elena’s background was no simple matter.
Did one really think that a common-born female Werewolf could progress to such a level?
That would be a joke.
Even among the Beastmen, background was crucial.
Whether it was the strength that came from one’s bloodline, the level of the Cultivation Techniques, or the resources for cultivation, could an ordinary person be the same as someone of noble birth?
Notify Xi Fei to bring the Sniper Team; we’ll go meet these people.” Playing with sniper rifles, his side was the professional one.
As he thought about it, Zhao Guang took out a few Protective Talismans.
He had no choice; he didn’t want Xi Fei or Jeana to have any mishaps, and these Protective Talismans could withstand a certain level of attack.
He had made them himself while learning during the time his Rune Language had reached an advanced level.
Then Zhao Guang looked at the twisted bullets.
The bullets didn’t seem to be made of Fine Steel; he didn’t know what material was used.
They looked almost like two bullet heads stuck together end to end.
They were simply rods with both ends rounded off more or less.
With such a shape, they definitely weren’t powered by gunpowder; it must be some other kind of propulsion.
And looking at the material’s hardness and the degree of twisting, the power of this thing, even if not comparable to a Barrett, could match up to an ordinary sniper rifle, definitely falling into the category of heavy sniper rifles.
It was surprising that this place could actually imitate sniper rifles; Zhao Guang found this intriguing.
“Master, the Sniper Team is already assembled,” suddenly, Xi Fei’s voice interrupted Zhao Guang’s thoughts.
Zhao Guang looked up and then nodded, “I have some good news; you guys have rivals now, who also use sniper rifles, albeit imitated ones.
Now, take these Protective Talismans, and let’s go meet them.” Zhao Guang pointed at the Protective Talismans he’d taken out on the table.
