บท 372: Cannonjaw Crocodile IV

*** 

Elijah had returned, his objective complete.

He glanced around as he entered the blood-filled room, seeing his cohort members nearing death one by one. 

Jake appeared to be on his last magazine, and Emma was desperately trying to protect Aria and keep her from an early grave.

Sofia was still firing her anti-material rifle, but her shots were losing effectiveness; her Aether reserves almost out. 

Bang!

The Ranger fired another bullet, hitting the third and last cannon, but it deflected off to the right, tearing through the wall. 

This was due to the construct's movements becoming unpredictable. 

After it got over the shock of losing its second cannon, it seemed to sense its own vulnerability and fought with renewed ferocity.

Its fire rate hadn't decreased either, shooting rocket after rocket. 

'...Fuckin hell.'
