Red Serpent isn't a Soul Gunner, but as a level 20 transcendent being, she can still control a level 10 Soul Energy Sniper Rifle quite well.
Even if Lin Nai is incredibly resilient, being hit head-on by a level 10 sniper shot would be certain death!
But Red Serpent certainly didn't intend to shoot Lin Nai directly. Her sniper scope was locked on Lin Nai's leg, intending to shoot through his leg first and make him incapacitated!
The veteran hiding in the corner was stunned when he saw the red snake high up.
"Hey! Young man! Watch out! A sniper!" The veteran shouted instinctively when he saw the young man who had once saved his life being targeted.
Lin Nai's heart skipped a beat, and she turned to look.
Red Serpent narrowed his eyes, took a light breath, and pulled the trigger without hesitation!
A shot was fired with a "bang"!
Because of the early warning, Lin Nai reacted immediately and dodged with a ghost step, the sniper rifle only hitting his feet!
"asshole!"
The red serpent was enraged.
Her angry eyes turned to the old soldier in the corner.
"court death!"
He reloaded the ammunition, pulled the bolt, and then pointed the gun at him.
"Bang--!"
Linnaeus had just landed with his Ghost Step when another gunshot rang out.
His expression changed instantly.
He turned around and saw that a beam of energy had pierced through the veteran's chest...
Time seemed to stand still...
Linnaeus's pupils shrank to their maximum size.
The veteran's expression froze for a moment, and his body slowly fell backward.
"thump!"
His body fell heavily onto the cold ground.
A bowl-sized hole appeared in his chest, and the residual energy from the soul power ammunition continued to spread outwards from his body...
The veteran's head lolled to the side, and before his eyes were even closed, he immediately lost vital signs.
"Hmph, what a nuisance old man."
The red serpent gave a disdainful snort.
Linnae stood about twenty meters away, gazing at the fallen veteran in silence for a long time without uttering a single word.
However, he gripped Bai Ye's hand with a subtle tightening, causing it to tremble slightly, and the veins on the back of his hand were visible.
His gaze turned icy cold, and his pupils gradually turned a pure silver-gray.
The divine core within my body is throbbing wildly!
Divine patterns, resembling branches of life, gradually appeared on the skin's surface, spreading out like tattoos and gradually covering the entire body, faintly shimmering!
The misty, silvery-white divine power surged out of her body like a tsunami, completely enveloping Lin Nai's body!
"Um?"
Red Serpent's eyelids twitched suddenly as it sensed the terrifying divine power emanating from Lin Nai, revealing a look of astonishment.
How is that possible?!
Such immense divine power...
Linnaeus's records didn't mention that he possessed such powerful divine strength!
What kind of monster is lurking inside this guy?!?
A silvery-white light shone in Linnai's eyes, and countless undead appeared around him, dancing and reveling.
These spirits murmured and whispered, as if they were singing a hymn that belonged only to the dead!
"This is......"
The red snake panicked a little.
She didn't know what it was.
But her extensive battlefield experience and intuition told her that she had to leave this place immediately!
Otherwise.....
The red snake turned around without hesitation and tried to escape.
but,
The moment she turned around, the hymn of the dead stopped abruptly...
Red Serpent also felt as if his body had frozen at that moment.
Completely unable to move!
In an instant, all the spirits of the dead quickly gathered back into Linnai's body.
A powerful divine force suddenly erupted from Lin Nai's body!
Lin Nai's eyes flashed with boundless killing intent: "Divine Art—"
"Elegy for the Soul!"
In an instant!
The red snake felt that the entire world around it had lost its color and turned gray and white!
The whole world seemed to have completely lost its sound!
That terrifying soul energy erupted from Linna's body and spread outwards in a huge circular pattern in all directions!
Wherever they went, all was silent, and the colors of heaven and earth were pure!
Throughout the entire vast area, the Senluo-level demon worm, the smaller demon worms, the warriors, the superhumans, the mages, the soul gunners, and the soldiers of the Jian Kingdom—all their bodies were engulfed in colorless soul flames!
At the same time, their bodies were being rapidly melted by the soul flames at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The body vanished rapidly, and the soul dissolved as well!
The agonizing wails and screams painted a poignant and beautiful song...
"This...no..."
The red snake lowered its head, staring in astonishment at its own hands.
Her body was also being burned by colorless flames of the soul.
Her body felt no pain, but she could clearly feel her soul being dissolved and torn apart bit by bit, emitting mournful cries...
"No......!!!!"
This piercing scream also became part of the lament for the soul.
It lasted for a full minute.
The world gradually regained its original colors and sounds...
Lin Nai exhaled a breath, feeling as if his body had been completely exhausted. The sickle clattered to the ground, and he knelt down on one knee. His head was spinning, and he almost fainted from exhaustion.
It seems that this move is still too energy-consuming for him right now.
Even using the divine power he could mobilize within his divine core almost caused him to collapse from exhaustion and go into shock.
However, its power is indeed...
Linnaeus looked around.
The entire street at the intersection was completely cleared from view.
This spell, Elegy of the Soul, only works on living beings, so the surrounding terrain remained unchanged and the buildings were not destroyed.
But neither monsters nor human soldiers were left behind.
The ground was spotless; all the corpses had been vaporized by the soul flames, leaving not even a trace of blood.
...No, actually there's one left.
Linnai gripped the hilt of the sickle and slowly and laboriously rose to his feet.
He slowly approached the old soldier.
The dead veteran's eyes were still wide open.
Linnaeus still remembered what the old soldier had told him before he died.
For a veteran, dying on the battlefield, but not at the hands of monsters, but at the hands of his fellow humans, would probably be a very bitter pill to swallow...
Linnaeus was silent for a moment, then gently stroked the old soldier's eyes with his palm.
Don't worry.
"I will help you kill a few more demon invaders."
