Ye Zhongming was somewhat annoyed by the green monster in front of him.
This was definitely the strongest minion that the Yama Tree could produce to deal with Ye Zhongming, and their brief battle proved this.
The creature resembled a gibbon; it must have been a mutated gorilla or ape in its past life. Now, it was completely bald, with smooth green skin that could almost reflect sunlight.
Its skin was marked with darker green circular spots, resembling coins.
The head was somewhat large, but not to an exaggerated extent, and its eyes were devoid of eyelids, matched with green magic crystals that made it look exceedingly fierce.
Its limbs and teeth were extremely sharp, making it hard to determine what its strongest point was.
The green magic crystal indicated a level four status, but it was obvious that this creature was not so simple; this color must have been tainted by the Yama Tree's power.
In the few seconds that Ye Zhongming was held up, he roughly understood the creature's characteristics.
It was agile, quick, and had an extremely strong perception of danger. Though it hadn’t used any special abilities yet, its physical attacks already put pressure on Ye Zhongming. Its power, agility, and defense were comparable to Ye Zhongming, and in terms of physical jumps, it even surpassed him.
One could say that if this creature was taken outside, it could match a seven-star evolver in physical prowess!
What surprised Ye Zhongming the most was the creature's strength. He had the dual boosts of the Merit Box and the Sea King Crown, yet this creature was not inferior at all. He could only wonder how the Yama Tree had cultivated such a being.
Ye Zhongming had no intention of wasting too much energy on this creature, but the moment Zhang Dalong appeared, he knew he had to take action. There had been too many unexpected events on today’s battlefield, and he feared that prolonged delays could lead to further complications.
Ye Zhongming began his counterattack.
He didn’t use the Edge of the Moon or the Crystal Energy Magic Bullet Gun, still holding onto a very ordinary assault rifle.
After exchanging a kick with the charging green goblin, both sides withdrew a few steps, and Ye Zhongming raised the muzzle of his gun.
The green goblin didn’t care at all and charged again, changing its path to make it difficult for Ye Zhongming to aim. Its speed was so fast that it left afterimages.
At the moment it closed in, Ye Zhongming pulled the trigger!
With a bang, a bullet gleaming with silver light hit the green goblin's exposed eyeball. The creature let out a scream and toppled backward.
Muzzle space folding was nearly guaranteed to hit when in close range!
Ye Zhongming didn’t stop his assault. He had already tested in the previous battle that the green goblin's eyes were extremely tough and wouldn’t be taken down by a single shot. Ye Zhongming’s intent was to create an opportunity for continuous fire.
Bang~~
If there were anyone with particularly keen hearing present, they would notice that this seemingly single gunshot was actually three shots fired in rapid succession, almost blending into one.
Three bullets of the same silver grade hit the green goblin's heart, this time not shining but cloaked in dark light.
"Three Flower Essence Blood Bullet!"
Ye Zhongming's gains from the underground city included not only branches from the Yama Tree but also a Class Promotion Scroll!
When the deadly marksmanship master upgraded from apprentice to beginner, this new skill of the Three Flower Essence Blood Bullet became available.
This was yet another very special gun technique.
Upon obtaining the muzzle space folding ability, Ye Zhongming was thrilled as it was a remarkable gun technique that, when upgraded, would eventually become a terrifying one-shot kill skill.
However, when the Three Flower Essence Blood Bullet appeared, Ye Zhongming felt conflicted.
This skill had too many restrictions!
First, it had requirements for upper body strength, and while the skill provided a basic value, Ye Zhongming was unsure what that entailed. After testing, he met the criteria.
