Chapter 376 - Operation Sparrow (IV)

When the timer finally finished its countdown, the first thing that occurred is the long-range players attacking me with their abilities. They didn't hold back and that is what I like since they are not holding back to their attempt to kill me. That means they aren't looking down on me and they aren't even underestimating me. They are there to kill me and win the Guild War. My death is their win and they can't afford to lose especially with the all players watching them.

But too bad that they have faced me, a player who has survived a guild war in the past timeline that seems to feel like a battle in a bullet hell game. This much? It's nothing to me. It's not even close to bullet hell and since I have a shield to use here, it wasn't even close to a dangerous battle but just a bit of a breeze.

I blocked all the incoming attacks by using the effects of Shield of Vanagloria, letting all the attacks sink into the shield. Since this will force me to remain in my position for three minutes, my back is going to be their target. I don't have to be worried about me getting killed in the back as using this skill will allow me to gain invincibility for 3 minutes and all the attacks coming straight to me would instead get pulled to the shield. However, this is a kill or be killed situation. Sure, I can't move in my position but that doesn't mean I can't use my body to move around. I am free to attack them while I am in a stationary position. And as for the enemies attacking me from behind, they were the unlucky ones who were able to receive the first delivery of pain from the Pain Delivery gun.

BANG BANG BANG BANG!

Four gunshots, four dead players. It didn't even give them a chance to retaliate. It was a fast bullet shot that even the heavily armored players didn't even get to stand back up again after they were killed.

"What the? One hit kill?!"

The Blue Sky Guild players who witnessed the situation didn't expect the one-hit kill. But they quickly try to stop me by putting all the less armored players behind them and those who can slightly tank cover them. However, that is also useless.

BANG BANG BANG!

Every shot makes the players that got hit fall down for good and die. This made the players who should be attacking me from behind try to flee. But I didn't want them to flee. It is war after all and it's either I die or they die in my hands.

Since only a few players that were tasked to attack me from behind were still alive, it only took me a few shots before I ran out of bullets for the current magazine and it is time to reload. The attacks on the shield are getting heavy but the charge bar is still half full. I already disposed of all the players who should be attacking behind me so I quickly performed a reload with the shield on my other hand.

I made sure to practice reloading while holding a shield to make sure that I won't be having trouble in the future. The gun's modified magazine is something I made that can hold 25 bullets in one go. Why not increase it further? Because it won't work anymore and I might as well create an assault rifle than a pistol instead. With my practice, it was easy for me to replace the empty magazine with a full mag.

With the gun fully loaded, the three-minute limit for my movement was lifted and my invincibility has disappeared, it is now time to do my attack after receiving hundreds of attacks from them. Looking at them, I slowly grinned. Then, I faced in front of me with the shield facing the enemies and started charging towards the players who were holding a shield. The moment they see me charging, they quickly braced themselves to face me head-on.

But that was their first mistake.

The moment they put down their shield and made themselves to be the barricade, they already signed their death certificates in the game. I am just a few centimeters from them all but that should be enough to deal the maximum damage.

Without saying the word, I activated the effect of Vanagloria. Since all the attacks that were released to me were all caught by the shield, the damage it also reflects is twice the amount I received. Even armor and shield won't save you unless you have a skill that will allow you to get invincible. From what I know, there is only a skill that reduces damage taken and since even with reduced damage, this skill gives quite a big number, it is also useless.

BOOM!

Shockwave was released and the shield that once stood tall to block my way was all snapped in half and all of the players who were holding them were all sent flying and died. Because all the paladins were dedicated to blocking my advance earlier, all of them are now dead after the reflection. Not only that but because the skill has a high radius, the nearby players behind the tanks were also killed in the process. Leaving the guild without a single tank to help. Sure there are the Holy Knights who have not died just yet but I doubt they have the same tankiness as Sigma who is the embodiment of the Immovable Holy Knight. The Paladin's tank capabilities are just unmatchable so the result is that they are now in a vulnerable position.

I can now see their tactic. Because they lined up every tank in front of me, they were planning to deal with me at the very start that is why the position of DPS players are in a pincer position earlier to cover all my sides while they block my way, forcing me to fight the paladin players to allow me to advance. No wonder they made all the paladins fully equipped from head to toe.

Too bad, their plan has backfired, leaving them with no tanks to help. Even if they do reserve some tanks, they are still no match to me.

Now, let's see how smart you are. Vice President of the Blue Sky Guild.. I am patiently waiting for your response.
