Gunfire thundered, with bullets shooting out from behind the trees. The trio tumbled simultaneously, as Shen Yue fired two rounds and Jin Xin sprayed out a hail of bullets toward the trees.
His actions were much quicker than his thinking.
After the gunfire, one person fell from a tree, and another appeared from behind another tree, falling slumped on the ground with no life left.
Nuanyu fired a shot, killing someone to their right before urgently shouting, "Take cover!"
Almost at the same time, Shen Yue yelled to Jin Xin, "Dodge it."
He was not one to be bossed around, even if Nuanyu had solid instincts.
He had been the first to comprehend the situation, sensing a greater killing intent hidden after disposing of the concealed assassin behind a tree.
That killing intent laid somewhere within the woods–far, yet imminent.
In the midst of their shoutings, the trio would either roll or sprint, all making evasive maneuvers.
