Death Train: SSS-level talent right from the start!

Qin Zhaoyang did not hesitate.

The Explosive Arrow was activated, and three short arrows were fired in succession. The arrows, wrapped in a pale red halo, drew three conspicuous trajectories and shot straight at Sean's face.

Sean's senses were extremely sharp, and he also fired three arrows in quick succession, the arrows colliding in mid-air.

"Boom boom boom—!"

Sean's talent and level were both superior to Qin Zhaoyang's. Even after the three explosions, Sean still had one arrow with undiminished power heading straight for Qin Zhaoyang.

At the crucial moment, Zhao Hai punched away the arrow aimed at Qin Zhaoyang, and then his body was launched forward, heading straight for Sean.

Tang Jingxin tried to stop Zhao Hai, but Chen Ye had already blocked his way: "Your opponent is me."

Tang Jingxin's golden vertical pupils contracted slightly, her gaze shifting from Chen Ye to Zhao Hai's back, and then back again.

His team members are locked in a fierce battle with the opposing team, and it's impossible to determine a winner in the short term.

But there are still two people on his side who haven't made a move yet.

He turned his head and his gaze fell on Jiang Ning at the very back of the group.

Jiang Ning, who had been shouting the loudest just moments before, stood still, his short axe in his hand. He didn't move; he just stood there like a statue, his gaze calmly fixed on the battlefield.

Jian Lan, who was at the very back, retreated directly into the passageway.

"Jiang Ning, aren't you going to make a move?"

Tang Jingxin's voice was squeezed out from between her teeth, carrying a suppressed anger.

Jiang Ning looked at him, and the corners of her mouth slowly curved up.

Then he moved.

The Emperor Engine roared deep within him, and the thumping sound of his heart echoed in the empty space. A pale red halo emerged from within his body, like a thin layer of blood mist enveloping him.

His speed was so fast that it was almost impossible for the naked eye to keep up.

The pale red figure drew an arc, but instead of rushing towards Chen Ye, it appeared behind Sean like a ghost.

Sean held his longbow in his hand, arrows nocked on the bowstring, the arrowheads aimed at Zhao Hai who was attacking him, completely unaware of the pale red figure behind him.

Jiang Ning is too fast.

From start to arrival, it takes less than two seconds.

The moment the pale red figure flashed behind Sean, the short axe was already raised high, its blade gleaming with a pale green light.

"puff--!"

The short axe cleaved down Sean's neck.

This axe strike was powerful and heavy, unleashing the full force of the Emperor Engine after it doubled.

The axe blade pierced the cervical spine, and the sound of bones shattering exploded in the empty space, so clear that everyone present could hear it.

Fresh blood spurted from the wound, the dark red blood standing out starkly against the blue-green fluorescent light.

Sean's body stiffened abruptly.

The longbow slipped from his hand and fell to the ground with a dull thud.

His fingers were still twitching slightly, but his body was already out of control.

He turned his head with difficulty, his gaze landing on Jiang Ning's face.

Those eyes were filled with disbelief.

"you……"

Sean's lips moved, but he only managed to utter a single, indistinct syllable.

Jiang Ning did not answer.

He pulled the axe from the back of Sean's neck, and blood spurted out even higher as the axe blade was pulled out.

Then he gripped the axe with both hands and delivered another powerful chop, the blade cutting into Sean's neck from the side and exiting from the other.

"puff--!"

Blood splattered everywhere.

Sean's head detached from his body, tumbled twice in the air, fell to the ground, and rolled half a circle before coming to a stop.

His eyes were still open, but the light in his pupils was rapidly fading.

Sean, ranked ninth on the leaderboard, is dead!

The body swayed twice, then collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Fresh blood gushed from the severed neck, pooling into a small dark red puddle on the ground.

The entire battlefield froze in that instant.

Wang Shuo stopped wielding his axe, the man with the knife stopped wielding his knife, and Li Zheng and the man with the sword also stopped fighting. Zhou Yating's ice arrow hovered at her fingertips, and the wind blade of the female teammate fighting him stopped in her palm.

All eyes were focused in the same direction.

The focus was on Jiang Ning.

They focused on the headless corpse at Jiang Ning's feet.

Zhao Hai stood less than ten meters from Sean's corpse, his fists still in a metallic state.

He looked at Jiang Ning with a complicated expression.

Jiang Ning wiped the blood from the short axe on Sean's clothes and put it back into his storage space, then picked up Sean's longbow from the ground.

"Jiang Ning!"

A roar exploded from the center of the space.

Tang Jingxin's eyes were bloodshot, his golden vertical pupils covered with blood vessels, like two burning embers, and his body was trembling violently.

"You dared to betray me! I'll kill you!"

Tang Jingxin dragged her spear and charged towards Jiang Ning, rubble shattering and flying at her feet, her vertical pupils fixed on Jiang Ning.

This time, Chen Ye did not stop her. Tang Jingxin was going to see Jiang Ning, which he was naturally happy to see.

He retreated to the vicinity of the passageway, crossed his arms over his chest, and calmly gazed ahead.

Zhao Haizhan was on his right, his silver-gray fists hanging at his sides, his body still in a posture ready to strike at any moment.

Wang Shuo, Li Zheng, Zhou Yating, and Qin Zhaoyang also retreated to the entrance of the passage and stood behind Chen Ye.

All eyes were focused on Tang Jingxin in front of them.

Tang Jingxin moved with incredible speed. Her body, covered in black scales, traced a dark path in the fluorescent light, her spear trailing behind her, its tip carving a fissure in the ground.

Jiang Ning stood still, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He had planned it all out long ago. As soon as the two sides started fighting, his first priority was to kill the level 6 Sean and then take Sean's longbow. He had already prepared hundreds of arrows in his storage space.

The moment Tang Jingxin thrust out her spear, Jiang Ning moved.

The roar of the Emperor's engine suddenly intensified, and his body drifted to the right less than half a meter, like a leaf blown by the wind.

It was in that half meter that Tang Jingxin's spear tip grazed his left rib.

The gun tip tore through the fabric of Jiang Ning's down jacket, but that was all.

As Jiang Ning dodged, the arrow was already nocked on the bowstring.

Draw the bow, then release it.

The whole process took less than two seconds.

The arrow shot through the air, heading straight for Tang Jingxin's face.

Tang Jingxin turned his head to avoid the arrow, which grazed his cheek and left a sharp screech in the air.

He continued charging forward, retracting his spear and switching to a horizontal sweep.

The gun whistled through the air as it swept towards Jiang Ning's waist.

Jiang Ning bent his knees slightly and leaped upwards. The gun swept past his feet, and the wind it created made his clothes flutter.

He drew his bow again in mid-air and shot another arrow.

This time the distance is even closer.

Tang Jingxin had no time to dodge and raised her left arm to block.

The arrow struck the black scales on his left forearm, the arrowhead penetrating less than half a centimeter before stopping; the scales were far harder than ordinary armor.

Tang Jingxin flicked her left arm, and the arrow fell off the scales and onto the ground.
