Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Revenge
The attacker, seeing Sadie pounce, immediately swung the dagger in his hand.
However, Sadie didn't dodge at all. Instead, she raised her arm again, and even though she was extremely angry a moment ago, she still had three thorns left.
Because her brother had warned her never to shoot all her thorns at once during a hunt.
Thinking of her brother, Sadie's eyes reddened again, and the murderous intent in her eyes grew even stronger.
On the other hand, the attacker shrank back. He didn't want to trade his life for Sadie's, especially when he and his teammates had nearly gained control of the situation.
So, he put away his dagger and rolled on the spot.
Sadie shot out another thorn, which likely triggered the [Headshot] effect, flying straight toward the attacker's head.
But at the last moment, it was blocked by a steel shield.
Sadie was furious, and raised her hand again, but she was now surrounded by several steel shields.
"You're unlucky to have met me today," the girl with the melon seed-shaped face said with a light laugh.
Hogg took Boggy very seriously and went to confront her himself, leaving the other two to charge at Ma Lu and Mai Mai.
The situation took a sudden turn for the worse.
Mai Mai's expression was grave as she took off the backpack she had on her back.
However, the preparation on the other side was thorough, and she didn't know if her electric field could penetrate the thick insulating suits they wore.
But by now she had no way out.
The two enemies approached quickly, one swinging a curved blade in his hand, while the other gripped a dagger against his chest.
Mai Mai's hand was also resting on the stack of thick, high-density batteries.
But it was Ma Lu who acted first.
He raised the hand crossbow in his hand, aimed at the person in front, and resolutely pulled the trigger.
However, the crossbow bolt flew past the man's arm.

He missed!
The hearts of the two on the opposite side sank a little at this, as they held information on every member of the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group, including Seta and Sadie who had just joined today.
The only data missing was on Ma Lu; they only knew he was the deputy leader of the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group, and facing him, they inevitably felt uncertain.
But according to the arrow just now, Ma Lu's archery seemed rather lackluster, and considering he and Mai Mai hadn't taken any action during the previous hunt of the Lava Giant Lizard, merely standing by and commanding, it was likely they weren't adept at combat.
Ma Lu also wasn't too satisfied, as that arrow had failed to trigger the [Headshot] effect.
Indeed, banking on luck like that couldn't always succeed.
Fortunately, he hadn't pinned all his hopes on that one arrow, and after gauging the distance between them, he opened his mouth.
The two from Skyline Hunting Group thought Ma Lu was about to cry out for help from Boggy, so they quickened their pace, about to pounce on Ma Lu and Mai Mai.
So close, Ma Lu wouldn't have time to load another bolt into the hand crossbow, and a thrill of excitement flashed in their eyes.
But in the next moment, they saw a faint red glow emanate from Ma Lu's throat.
It was a familiar sight, and one of them realized something, his expression drastically changing, "Watch out!"
Before he could finish speaking, scorching hot molten lava burst forth from Ma Lu's mouth!
The two wanted to dodge, but it was too late; they were too close, and in the blink of an eye, they were engulfed by the surging lava, burning brightly like two torches.
Mai Mai stood rooted to the spot, feeling as if her brain had crashed.
Meanwhile, Ma Lu was still spewing lava while running towards Hogg, resembling a fire truck in action.
Hogg was also dumbstruck.
What the hell is this thing?!
A human? Or some kind of mutant Lava Giant Lizard?
How can a mouth that's 36 degrees spit out lava at 1000 degrees?! Doesn't his mouth get burnt?
To tell the truth, Ma Lu was also a bit concerned about this issue, but fortunately, after spitting for so long, he only felt a slight itching in his throat, and his body didn't show any abnormalities.
[Super Imitation Show: Designate a target, mimic its abilities, and automatically possess the necessary conditions to activate them, lasting for 30 seconds with a cooldown time of 2 hours.]
After receiving this Golden Blessing, Ma Lu actually wanted to fleece Mai Mai, but those people were clearly prepared for the Electric Field.
Not just the Electric Field, except for him, everyone from the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group was within the calculations of their opponents, with countermeasures in place, and Ma Lu was not familiar with Hogg and his group's Psychic Power abilities.
On the contrary, because he had just hunted a Lava Giant Lizard, Ma Lu had seen it spew lava several times.
It seemed rather simple.
So he tried designating the remaining Lava Giant Lizard, and subsequently, a [Death Spray] skill appeared in the character bar.
The duration was a bit short; Ma Lu hadn't reached Hogg's front when the 30 seconds were up, but luckily, Ma Lu kept loading his hand crossbow while running.
One arrow didn't hit!
The second arrow, still a miss!
Ma Lu didn't believe in bad luck, loaded another arrow, raised his hand, and shot, finally triggering a [Headshot].
The crossbow bolt curved in mid-air, heading straight for Hogg.
Ma Lu ran with tears in his eyes, finally feeling lucky!
But Hogg just stood there without moving, and suddenly, several tornadoes appeared in front of him. As soon as Ma Lu's crossbow bolt flew in, it vanished without a trace, swept away to who knows where.
However, Hogg felt a sharp pain in his back, and Boggy's icy voice rang in his ears, "Did you forget something?"
It was then that Hogg remembered that he was still fighting someone; it was just that most of his attention had been drawn away by Ma Lu.
Being distracted in battle is a taboo, especially when your opponent is much faster than you.
Hogg looked down and saw the spearhead protruding from his chest, thinking to himself that this deal had gone terribly wrong.
In the blink of an eye, three members of the Skyline Hunting Group were down, including the deputy leader, and the rest were panicked.
The girl with the melon seed face still thought about taking down Sadie to coerce Boggy and the others, but before she could succeed, her right calf was ensnared by something.
The girl with the melon seed face turned her head and saw a huge hand made of sand holding her tightly, and at the other end of the hand was a tall giant puppet.
Her pupils dilated drastically as she blurted out, "How is this possible?!"
Seta, who should have been dead by then, had somehow sat up from the ground and was staring at her intently, speaking deliberately.
"Are you bullying my sister?!"
The girl with the melon seed face wasn't old, but she had already killed many people. It was the first time she had witnessed such a bizarre scene, and she was so frightened that her soul nearly left her body, losing all will to fight and only thinking of running away.
But she had forgotten that she was caught by the Sand Soil Puppet, which picked her up and then slammed her to the ground repeatedly, as if an enraged child was throwing a toy around.
In no time at all, the girl with the melon seed face was smashed beyond recognition.
In the end, only two people left restraining the Lava Giant Lizard remained; they had wanted to flee for a long time but could not shake off the giant creature behind them. Sadie easily knocked them down with Thorns.
One was unlucky and was hit directly in the head, dying instantly, while the other was shot through the abdomen.
