Thats a diamond crystal!

The Scout player was staring at the transparent crystal, which was reflecting sunlight like a diamond. His eyes were round with amazement.

This kind of monster could make a crystal out of another monsters corpse?

Damn! Thats such a cool-looking monster!

Call Me Grandpa stared at the diamond-like crystal clamped in the hands of the Gatherer Beetle monster. This item would worth over 10,000 credits! And he had spent all his savings on the equipment and the Energy SUV so he could be a poser in the game. He had even overdrafted his credit account with the commonwealth bank and was worried about how he would make it up for this month.

Gosh! I got it wrong. Im not unlucky at all. This is pure luck!

Checking the recon meter again and ensuring that there were no other dangerous monsters around, Call Me Grandpa immediately started up his Energy SUV and set it to the maximum energy output. With the engines started, he stormed toward the three brown beetles position.

The Energy SUVs speed was amazingly fast, as expected. He was near the target within ten seconds.

Watching a gigantic thing getting nearer to them, the three brown beetles sensed danger. Two of them immediately jumped off the corpse and ran to the grassland behind them. However, they seemed to be moving at a slow speed. The brown beetle with the diamond crystal in its pincers even lost its way in the midst of its panic. It unexpectedly ran a ways toward him before it turned around and retreated toward the grassland behind it.

Stop running!

Call Me Grandpas eyes were already shining. It would be impossible for him to allow the credits that were almost in his grasp to get away. He stopped the SUV abruptly and stuck an assault rifle out of the window, intending to fire a shot. He switched off the safety, but the three brown beetles were faster and disappeared into the grassland.

Damn it!

Call Me Grandpa cursed and left his SUV while holding the assault rifle. He followed and ran into the grassland.

Call Me Grandpa ran to the bush beside the road. While he was trying to pull out the tall grass that was blocking his vision, he felt that something hit his head hard. A delayed gunshot was subsequently heard.

Bang!

2945!

A sniper?

Call Me Grandpa reacted as soon as he was shot. He immediately rolled to the side and hid in the tall brush.

Damn it! It must be a hunter! Its a trap!

Call Me Grandpa cursed while hiding in the bushes. If not for his helmetwhich had a solid thickness and was a masterwork with an Excellent-grade defense coefficienthe may have been killed by that one shot. Even so, his helmet had already taken damage of over 90 percent by the shot from the other player. It was almost fully penetrated.

The only thing that he could not understand was, if this was a trap, what was up with the Gatherer Beetles?

Hmm? Why is he not shooting anymore?

Call Me Grandpa was confused. Logically, since the other person had ambushed him, he ought to keep shooting at him until he died. After all, although he was hiding in the bushes, the Sniper should have guessed as much; he would not choose a sniping position blocked by bushes.

Perhaps this guy is a noob?

He thought so. Over ten seconds passed, yet the other player still did not fire any more shots. Hope started to rise in Call Me Grandpas heart.

Gosh! I think he is really a noob!

Pondering in his heart, he extended his hand sneakily to the pocket of his battle suit to get a blood tonic.

However, right when Call Me Grandpa took out the blood tonic

Bang!

Another scalding shield-breaking bullet whirled at high speed and flew through the blockage of bushes and trees with high accuracy, eventually striking the exact same spot as the previous shot on his helmet.

333

Damn it!

Call Me Grandpa could only watch helplessly as the blood tonic dropped from his hand onto the ground. He had almost managed to heal himself. He cursed this Sniper who was trolling with him.

Damn it! If only if I could find out your ID

Unfortunately, it would be impossible for him. In addition, he also did not know how great his loss would be due to this death.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Equipment, materials, and supplies, which were emitting faint light, fell to the ground and scattered around the grassland. Blood tonics, MP potions, energy crystals, a recon meter, shoes, and even his battle suit were destroyed. When Call Me Grandpa respawned, it was possible that he would cry himself to death.

However, he would first have to consider the problem of his bank account.

******

Two minutes later, Feng Luo walked over slowly, holding the M110.

He smiled with satisfaction while taking the crystals, materials, and equipment that had been picked up by the three Gatherer Beetles using their pincers and brought to his side.

There was a Level-45 Excellent-grade piece of equipment, three Fine-grade pieces of equipment, energy crystals, and supplies that would worth thousands, at least. This round was definitely worth it.

However, what made him even happier was the fact that his strategy of setting a trap using the beetles had been a success. Not even a Scout player had suspected anything!

In fact, when hed hatched the first Gatherer Beetle, he had realized that aside from Golden King Beetles, beetles that were bred would not be considered pets by the system when other players were using recon meters.

Feng Luo had realized the value of this almost immediately. A Gatherer Beetle that would be treated as a monster could do many things. For example, setting up an ambush by pretending to be a mob, or luring enemies to get hints could be done. Most importantly, when spoils were not owned in a chaotic situation, this kind of beetle, which was able to dig tunnels, could also do something dreamed of by many players: stealing No, lootingequipment!

For a Sniper who was unable to pick up equipment dropped by others in a group PK situation due to the need to shoot from a sniping position far away from the battlefield, could there be anything more satisfying than this?

Not to mention that, at present, he had managed to hatch not only these three Gatherer Beetles.

Actually, Feng Luo was more excited about the King Beetle, which had finally reached Level 20 after he had leveled up that day. He had managed to collect 250 soul energy points and had hatched his first Scout Beetle. The lucky thing was, it had achieved the Elite grade once it was hatched, and its level went above Level 20 straight away because it had been hatched from an Elite monster.

The Scout Beetle also possessed the skill of hiding its detecting skill to a certain degree, aside from the basic skill of detecting camouflage. This was why he had let the Scout live for a few seconds longer. For the subsequent shot, he had used the Scout Beetle as a decoy and shot from another angle of vision.

The result had been undeniably satisfying.
