The energy vortex flashed with electric light, like an epiphyllum under the moonlight, blooming for only a short time before disappearing.
Valentine's body lay on the ground backwards, no longer breathing. His eyes widened, and his pupils, which were originally as small as pinpricks, dilated and lost their luster.
The life-saving thunder did not appear, because the energy that hit him was too violent, tearing a big hole in the blink of an eye——
Directly vaporize half of Valentine's body into a molecular state.
If the heart is gone, how can the brain still have enough power to control the body and activate the Origin Stone skills?
At the moment before life dissipates, it can only control this body to say its final farewell to the world.
The room fell silent again. A few seconds later, a crack appeared on the ice on Night Owl's face.
Immediately afterwards, her whole body collapsed instantly, and she collapsed on the sofa, gasping for air.
There were fine beads of sweat on the girl's forehead, and her long hair was stuck together in twos and threes. Her underwear was also soaked with sweat, and her whole body was soaked as if she had just run a marathon.
But in fact, the operation just now was much more tiring for her than a marathon.
It is known that Valentine has incredible vitality and recovery ability, and is almost immune to any negative effects. So how can we kill him completely?
It is impossible to complete this task in close combat, because Night Owl cannot completely crush Valentine in terms of physical fitness, and he will definitely notice it when he takes action, which gives him time to react.
Even if he hasn't made any subjective movement yet, his body will initiate a stress response to resist the upcoming injury.
Only by letting Valentine relax and making him think that he is not in danger can an attack possibly kill him.
Moreover, it is best for the attack to come from the blind spot of his vision, so that the possibility of success will be maximized.
Taking all means into consideration, there is only one that meets the requirements.
Snipe.
Night Owl possesses a special weapon called "Whisper", an ultra-long-range sniper gun that uses energy as ammunition. The bullets fired are silent, fast and powerful. It can be said to be the best sniper gun currently known to Terra.
The shortcomings of Whispering are very fatal: when bound to Night Owl, the bullet requires a lot of time and magic to 'manufacture'. After firing, Night Owl needs to control the shape of the bullet at all times until it hits the target, lest it 'reveal its original shape'.
Because of this, Night Owl only fired one bullet during the morning sniper attack, and immediately moistened it after seeing the miss, without trying another shot.
Because she only has one bullet.
As a senior assassin, Ye Xiao always considers the worst possible outcome when performing tasks, and she naturally thinks of situations where she can't help her target.
In order to deal with this situation, Xia Midnight Owl took the opportunity to pay attention to the surrounding high-rise buildings during the on-site survey, and she found a suitable sniping point.
Valentine's guest room faces the sea to the east, and Siesta's CBD is a few kilometers to the north. In order to allow guests to enjoy the sea view and the bustling lights of the CBD at night, only floor-to-ceiling windows are deliberately left on the north and east sides of this room, providing guests with an extremely wide view.
The sniper point that Night Owl was looking for was on the edge of Xista CBD, on the top floor of a building.
Taking into account the height difference, the straight-line distance from the sniper point to the guest room is about three kilometers.
In other words, energy bullets must fly at least three kilometers before hitting the target.
This is impossible on Earth, but this is Terra.
Night Owl is confident enough to hit its target.
but……
Night Owl is sitting in front of Valentine at this moment, how can she snipe?
Rely on another self in the world?
Of course not.
Ye Xiao relies on her own Origin Stone skills.
As mentioned before, this little bird can already give the meaning of gas, liquid and solid to and control certain existences, and the range of its spellcasting is among them.
The warlock's casting range is a sphere centered on himself. Night Owl uses the Origin Stone technology to vaporize and stretch the sphere into a long strip, with one end covering himself and the other end wrapping Whisper three kilometers away.
This also happens to be the trajectory of the energy bullet.
Of course, such IMBA operations also come at a cost. Because the casting range is too long, Night Owl's spell intensity is greatly reduced.
In the past, she could use whispers easily and freely, but now she was exerting all her energy, like a three-year-old child controlling a Deshka heavy machine gun.
Ye Xiao believes that if the sniper distance is two hundred meters further...
The result of this mission will be to die together!
Valentine died from energy bullets, and Night Owl died from the exacerbation of ore disease caused by explosive seeds.
Fortunately, everything is under control...
After a simple breath adjustment, Ye Xiao stood up and straightened his hair. She glanced at Valentine, who was still staring, and her orange eyes flashed slightly.
Valentine's body seemed to be covered with a layer of concentrated sulfuric acid, turning into a viscous red and white liquid that gradually spread around.
The solid wood floor comes alive at this moment, blending with the red and white liquid and finally covering it.
The broken piece of floor-to-ceiling window was also restored to its original state, but it was slightly thinner than before.
In just a few breaths, the room returned to its original state.
Even the smell of blood in the air disappeared.
After looking around to make sure there were no flaws, Ye Xiao turned around...
Go to the kitchen.
She was really tired and needed to eat something to replenish her energy.
Night Owl is not worried that anyone will come back. As an assassin, stealth is her best skill besides killing.
The girl stood in the darkness, sipping bread and milk. She didn't forget to take away the trash after eating, and with a flick of her hand, the packaging bag became part of her clothes.
Next, it’s time to evacuate.
Ye Xiao opened the door, but the sight in front of her made her eyes widen.
--------Ha ha--------
"surprise!"
Valentine stood at the door, opening his arms toward the girl and smiling brightly.
Ye Xiao's raised eyelids quickly dropped, and he once again raised his face like a bird.
She had thought about whether the scene just now was an illusion created by this guy, so Ye Xiao specifically contacted Gavin for this reason.
This male researcher's Origin Stone skill is a spiritual link that allows both parties to communicate. The strength is too low, it can only link to one person at a time, and the distance cannot be too far.
Gavin quickly responded to Ye Xiao, and expressed surprise at the recent loss of contact, and also expressed some concern for the girl.
This shows that there is no illusion, she is in reality.
result……
well.
Suddenly, Ye Xiao felt very tired.
I tried my best and tried my best to see the target die in front of my eyes twice, but in the end it was just a dream, and everything was in vain.
And this guy acted very relaxedly from beginning to end, as if those methods were of no use to him.
I'm still laughing here.
Ye Xiao doesn't feel that his dignity as a killer has been insulted, he can only say that his skills are inferior to others.
She lowered her head slightly and made up her mind.
The girl's face was cold, her lips were pursed tightly, her eyes were sharp, and she looked very dissatisfied.
But this is just an appearance, meant to confuse the people in front of you. Her real purpose is to detonate the miniature Originium bomb hidden in her wisdom teeth. She only needs to lick it with her tongue and then bite it lightly...
Why?
Ye Xiao suddenly found that his facial muscles had lost their intuition, and his teeth were slightly open but could not be closed.
"Little girl, life is very precious."
Lightning danced on Valentine's horns.
"There's no need to push yourself to this point. And that amount of bombs won't kill me at all. It will only turn you into a pile of minced meat, and turn these several floors into ruins."
"Don't you only attack targets? Now you are going against your own principles?"
After hearing this, Ye Xiao wanted to reply with a Colombian curse word.
Are you talking about principles with the killer?
I just didn’t want to! Can’t you think about it now? !
But Valentin didn't give her a chance.
As soon as the man raised his hand, Night Owl opened his mouth wide. A bolt of electricity shot into the girl's mouth, and the tooth containing the Originium bomb flew out.
"This thing is too dangerous, so I'll accept it. Just think of it as your punishment for coming to kill me."
People who want to kill Valentine basically have no good ending. The Night Owl has the best ending with one tooth missing.
As for why he didn't want her life...
Probably because Valentine quite likes this little bird.
At least, she never took action against those around Valentine.
That alone was enough to keep her alive.
As for Valentine's own life...
It has died so many times, it has long been worthless.
"Okay girl, don't stand there."
Glancing at the tooth on his hand, Valentine put it in his pocket and made way for the night owl.
"Go back quickly, my wife will be back soon."
"If they see me chatting with you here, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."
After saying that, Valentine showed a 'you know' smile.
Ye Xiao was stunned for a few seconds, not understanding what this guy meant. She thought she was going to die tonight, but...
Are you letting yourself go?
"Oh, by the way, where is my dedicated customer service? She didn't answer my call. You didn't kill her, did you?"
Valentin was just about to enter the house when he walked next to Night Owl and suddenly remembered this matter.
"...in the bathroom."
After a brief silence, Ye Xiao said coldly while looking towards the end of the corridor.
"There."
Valentin followed her line of sight and felt a breeze blowing as soon as his attention shifted.
"Where are the people?"
The Night Owl disappeared in the blink of an eye, and only the faint fragrance remaining in the air proved that she had been standing here.
"so fast……"
Valentine raised his eyebrows, closed the door, and walked slowly to the bathroom at the other end.
He was not afraid that Ye Xiao, who left, would be detrimental to Raphael and Xing Yihuang.
Not just because of how the little bird had behaved so far, but also because of the electricity he had just dropped into the girl's mouth.
That electric current can do more than just pull out teeth...
Valentine was somewhat looking forward to what he would see.
