Assassin at Range: The Sniper's Lethal Power-Chapter 107 - : I Admit I Was a Little Loud Earlier
DarkSaber stood at the resurrection point, staring blankly at the sky. Behind him, several vice-presidents from the Shadow Legion appeared one by one.
"You died?"
"How coincidental, you got sent back too?"
"Are we still going back to fight the boss?"
"Fight what? Did you not see Blackshade’s damage? Two hits and he took a quarter of the boss’s health. By the time we get back, it’ll probably be over."
"We still have brothers at the scene, there’s still a chance."
"Do you believe that?"
The more they talked, the more doubtful they became, their voices growing quieter.
DarkSaber collected his thoughts and made a summary: "It’s not that we’re incompetent, Blackshade’s methods are just too many. He even managed to crack a Gold Grade scroll... I have nothing to say."
Looking back at how confident they had been before the battle started, DarkSaber really didn’t know what to say.
The other vice-presidents were the same. When they saw the Gold Grade scroll earlier, they thought they had the battle in the bag.
"Come on, it’s a Gold Grade item. How could it not take care of one Blackshade?"
But in the end, it didn’t work.

As for going back to fight the boss, there was no point. With Blackshade’s damage output, by the time they arrived, the boss would already be gone. Going back would be a waste of time.
While DarkSaber was trying to figure out how to wrap things up, more members of Shadow Legion appeared at the resurrection point. By rough count, almost all of the members who had come to fight were sent back.
"What happened?!"
DarkSaber yelled angrily.
One of the members, looking downcast, shouted, "Boss, IFA went too far!"
This immediately resonated with the others, and they started venting their frustrations.
"Yeah, those bastards led countless sea monsters to attack us."
"I’ve figured it out now, IFA didn’t come to fight the boss; they came to mess with us!"
"Where’s the spirit of the game? Sure, we’ve messed with them before, but when the boss spawns, shouldn’t we unite against it?"
"Damn it, my shield got blown up. How about you guys?"
"My Silver Grade chest piece got blown up."
"Damn, both my weapons are gone. How am I supposed to fight monsters now? Go at it with my fists?"
"Boss, what do we do?"
"Yeah, you’ve got to get revenge for the brothers!"
DarkSaber’s head was throbbing. He never expected Drake to be this ruthless, using the chaos of the boss fight to send his subordinates to the resurrection point. And on top of that, they had lost a lot of equipment.
The members who came were all elite members, and their equipment had cost a lot of money. Losing even one piece was a major blow.
Now, they had lost dozens of pieces.
Estimating roughly, the losses had already exceeded several million. Even though Shadow Legion was financially solid, they couldn’t afford such a heavy blow.
Initially, DarkSaber had been thinking of calming things down, but now he couldn’t hold back any longer. He raised his arm high and shouted, "Brothers, IFA has no honor. We don’t need to hold back. Let’s go back and kill them!"
With the boss leading the way, Shadow Legion’s members instantly found their rallying point. Full of momentum, they rushed towards the coast.
However, before they had gotten very far, they ran straight into IFA’s main force.
Drake laughed heartily. "DarkSaber, I was just thinking of looking for you at the resurrection point, but it turns out you’ve come to deliver yourself to me. You really are walking into hell without a second thought!"
He waved his hand. "Attack!"
IFA’s members surged forward, looking fierce as wolves.
Having just wiped out Shadow Legion and looted a bunch of gear, they were much stronger now. Their goal was clear: to beat the fallen dog while it was down.
DarkSaber didn’t expect Drake to be this crafty, but now that things had come to this, there was no turning back. He picked up his weapon and charged forward. "Brothers, let’s kill these bastards!"
The two sides clashed, and it was an uproarious battle.
Meanwhile, Tristan’s fight with the Tide Giant was nearing its end.
Every attack dealt over a million damage, and even with the Tide Giant’s 4 million health, it couldn’t withstand it.
Tristan had been waiting for his Shadow Leap to cool down before taking action to ensure his safety, so his damage was slightly reduced. But even so, he had already dealt enough damage to lock in the loot.
Seeing the players around him growing disinterested, Tristan knew that they weren’t even bothering to join in anymore. With the loot locked by Blackshade, there was no point for them to step in.
Some players headed back to Sonar City, preparing to use the teleportation circle to leave. Others, sticking to the principle of "since we’re here, we might as well," began eyeing the surrounding sea monsters.
Since the boss was out of reach, they’d just grind for experience.
...
"Ding! You have killed the Level 25 Dark Gold Grade Boss Tide Giant Kamsaletor. You gain 125,000 experience points. As you are 6 levels higher, you also gain 75,000 extra experience."
"You have reached level 20!"
"You have gained 5 free attribute points!"
"The power of shadows gathers within you, you gain an additional 5 free attribute points!"
"Beast Blessing activated, you gain an additional 5 free attribute points!"
"Hunting Moment activated, you gain 1 evolution point!"
As the Tide Giant collapsed, it provided a substantial amount of experience, allowing Tristan to level up again. He came in at level 17 and walked out at level 20, making a huge gain.
Looking at the leaderboard, Ivan, who was ranked second, was still only level 15. The gap had already widened.
"Big bosses are the way to go; small monsters are too easy," Tristan thought contentedly.
He suddenly felt that Dark Horizon wasn’t so bad after all. If they had arranged for boss fights like this in all twelve main cities, Tristan could level up to 30 or even 40 in no time, just from running back and forth.
It was a pleasant thought.
However, the situation in Sonar City was a bit different from Davi City.
The Sonar City boss didn’t seem to be a triggered event but rather something that had been unintentionally discovered by players.
That was a very plausible scenario.
At this stage, players’ biggest enthusiasm wasn’t just leveling up, but also hunting down bosses. Dark Horizon in Sonar City probably hadn’t activated their arrangements yet, and players had stumbled upon the boss and triggered the fight.
Tristan could only imagine how frustrated Dark Horizon must be. They hadn’t even had a chance to prepare before their plans were ruined.
But Tristan didn’t care about what Dark Horizon thought. He stepped forward, claiming the loot for himself.
Before he could even check it out, GemmaS came running over, looking apologetic. "Blackshade, I admit I was a little loud earlier. Even though I’ve improved, I’m still not as good as you."
GemmaS had thought she stood a chance in this boss fight, but once Blackshade stepped in, dealing 1.5 million damage to the boss, she realized the reality of the situation.
Now that the boss was dead, she came over to admit defeat.
Tristan smiled. "Don’t be discouraged, your class still has a lot of potential to be unlocked."
Then, looking at the loot in his bag, he added, "I’ve got something here that might be perfect for you."
