Chapter 27 - Players Guild Vulture
"Shi-" Jin with a look of despair stares a few seconds at the boulder of rock that is heading towards him. Jin quickly turns around and tried to find a cover but it's a bit late. The whole place was destroyed and the rock boulder made the edge of the building fall down to the ground. Dust smoke made the whole place in mid visibility.
Jin let out a few *coughs* before standing from where he was knocked out. Jin dust himself as he was covered with a bit of dust on his body. Jin looked around and he checked the place that he was aiming from already have collapsed. Jin looked at the volcanic minion and its walking straight towards the ruined building where Jin is.
Jin saw that his XDR-rifle was near the edge of the collapsed floor. He slowly walks towards the edge so that it won't make a fall "Dammit I am almost there…" Jin then lunches himself towards the direction of the XDR-Rifle and then quickly aimed it at the volcanic minion.
Jin whispered "Blind aim" and the XDR-rifle change its emitting aura to pink. After that Jin aimed the XDR-rifle and he felt that his accuracy increased. ``Let's cut off that arm of yours you damn minion!`` Jin pressed the trigger
[Triggering Skill usage chosen] {Registered Skill] [Firing Skill: Dual Burst]and a materializing force of light flickering at the end of the barrel and then *Phewww* the force and momentum of the XDR-rifle made Jin adjusted his recoil a bit as he was a bit backed by the recoil of the XDR-rifle.
And soon the beam of light hits the right shoulder of the volcanic minion it exploded *BOOM* the explosion created a dust fog at the location of the volcanic minion. The clean shot was so effective and was a perfectly clear shot.
And when the fog of dust cleared he saw that the shoulder was damaged but the arm was not cut off from the shoulder. ``Dammit, where did I do wrong all of the aims were perfect. Geez… this is a pain in the ass ``
Jin growled in frustration.After that Jin stood up and run towards the rear door which is the gateway to his second location. And then he heard a loud explosion from the place where he is earlier. "That is another boulder…" Jin quickly run-up to the stairs and now he is on the 5th floor where there is a perfect angle in which is he able to see clearly the full body of the volcanic minion.
Jin aimed at the XDR-rifle but as he aimed there was a different pattern of movements that the volcanic minion have done. The volcanic minion looked at where Jin was, and Jin was stunned as he looked at the scope and he also saw that the volcanic minion's ugly face is also looking at him. "Shi- how did that monster know my location in just that glimpse."
Jin slings his XDR-rifle and tries to find another spot to fire upon. "Dammit… Uh, what should I do." And suddenly the whole building vibrated and the dust from the ceiling comes down like snow. "This is really bad" Jin is now confused about what he will do next. And suddenly he heard a soft woman's voice that came from the destroyed wall.
Jin turns his head as he heard the voice. "So you need help?" Vulture said as she was gripping his dual daggers in both of her hands.
"Uhh… actually… I do…" Jin felt a sudden embarrassment to ask help from someone he did not know and he just met.
"Well then, what monster are you fighting?" Vulture asked as her red mask and light armor were giving her a bad girl type of vibe.
Jin was really stunned by Vulture's aura as if he just saw a black-winged angel came down to save him. Jin was staring at her for at least 30 sec until he spoke "I was fighting a low-level Volcanic Minion and I don't know why is it hard to kill"
Vulture replied as she giggled a bit "Well, let me help you then. First I want you to find a good position not here but in the other house. Until then wait for my signal and then fire the most ultimate skill you have. And we will surely win"
Jin was a bit slow for a moment and he repeated "You just want me to take a good position then do a last hit on the volcanic minion?" while Jin asked that the whole building vibrated again and their eyes interlocked. "We have no time to waste let's get it done" Jin did not wait for the answer but trusted Vulture at that judgment.
Jin rush towards the destroyed wall which is an opening onto another ruined building that is aligned to the 5th floor is the rooftop of the other building. Jin looked at the only bridge to get onto the other building rooftop is to cross the wooden bridge that Vulture created.
Jin slings his XDR-rifle and slowly walks on the wooden planks. Meanwhile, Vulture uses her Death Terror skill to increase her speed and make other monsters that are lower than her be frightened for quite some time.
Jin has successfully crossed the other side and now he is able to see how the volcanic minion is slowly destroying the building. And he also sees how the woman stranger he just met gets the volcanic minion backed off a bit and tried to get a space between both of them.
"Whoa, what skill did she use" Jin put his XDR-rifle on top of one of the stone bricks and then aimed the XDR-rifle at the volcanic minion which was focusing on Vulture.
"Let's see how you can dance with me, minion." Vulture smirked, after that she dashed forward she quickly closes the gap between her and the volcanic minion. And because of the quick reaction time, the volcanic minion was caught by Guard.
The dagger that Vulture was gripping imitates an orange aura without any word Vulture just slashes her daggers on the leg of the volcanic minion. That made the volcanic minion's left leg was destroyed for quite a bit. But she did not stop there. Vulture leaped at the back of the Volcanic minion and throws a rope around its neck and with that strategy she also wants to tie the two feet of the Volcanic minion and make it drop down on the ground.
But it was not that easy and the rope was easily cut off because of the sheer strength of the volcanic minion. The Volcanic minion roared as Vulture was flown away because of that. But she was able to quickly recover as she was thrown away for quite a distance and the volcanic minion charged forward towards Vulture with furious eyes and the burning magma that can be seen at its veins.
Vulture already knows that the Volcanic minion will use its right hand to create earth spikes and with that skill, it will be a big problem for her. So before the Volcanic minion will be able to do that, she also charges forward towards the Volcanic minion. Jin whispered, "Blind Aim" and the imitating aura of the XDR-rifle change into pink after that Jin also whispered, "Deep Breath" with the buff skills have now cast his accuracy and skill damage increased by 10%.
The Volcanic minion punched on the ground and suddenly spikes pop out directing towards Vulture. Vulture quickly dodges the incoming spikes that are very sharp and deadly. As if it pierced through the flesh it will be an instant killing skill. Vulture dagger turned pink and when she leaped forward and slash her dagger on the chest of the volcanic minion it easily cracked and was destroyed. And then she shouted "FIRE!"
Jin aiming at the magma core at the time [Triggering Skill usage chosen] {Registered Skill] [Firing Skill: Overcharged Death Ray] the emitting aura of the XDR-rifle change to yellow and the materializing force that was being generated at the end of the barrel also in a different kind of force as it feels much stronger.
So Jin puts a lot of pressure on the XDR-rifle to avoid recoil feedback that may reduce the accuracy and damage impact. And without hesitation, Jin pressed the trigger and the beam of light that fired by the XDR-rifle was in unimaginative power that has been created and as it lands on the target it exploded
*KABOOM* followed by that explosion was the dust fog that made the whole place in zero visibility. Even Jin did not see Vulture on the ground. He only hears the explosion and then followed by the rocks being deteriorated and falling on the ground.
Jin let out a soft sigh of relief as he felt that the volcanic minion has been defeated. And he was surely correct as there was a blue tab that appeared in front of him.

Jin slings his rifle on the left shoulder and sat on the ground while leaning on the wall. After a few minutes, he saw the woman who offered her help to Jin. So without any shyness inside of him, Jin stood up and said "May I ask your name you really helped me out there"
Vulture smiled behind her mask and she replied "Call me Vulture" After that Vulture throws a smoke bomb and she goes down of the building and runs off. Jin coughs as he sways the smoke by his hand trying to see if Vulture was still standing there.
"I am really lucky" Jin smiled as he felt excited..``That was out of protocol, I almost died why did I help that man ugh… what is happening to myself`` As she runs towards the rendezvous point with the wolf pack of the Players guild.
