With an excited heart and trembling hands, You Luoming swore he had never wanted to pull a four-star character this badly in his life.

One ten-pull!

[Convene Successful—Marcato!] It was a good weapon, but he didn’t need it right now.

You Luoming accepted Marcato and nine blue weapons, then clicked for another ten-pull.

Again, he skipped the animation.

[Convene Successful—Yuanwu!] [Multiple characters owned.

Team Setup has been unlocked.] [When adding the character “Yuanwu” to the Team Setup for the first time, you will obtain his Resonance abilities and combat experience.] [You can only possess the Resonance abilities of one character at a time.

You may switch to other characters in the Team Setup at any time (no cooldown).] “I pulled the gym uncle, but only a Sequence 4 Yuanwu can provide shields for his teammates.

At Sequence 0, he’s basically useless,” You Luoming complained internally as he prayed desperately to the pool: “I need a four-star gunner!

Empress Ma, save me!” Converting 1,600 Astrite into ten Radiant Tides, he clicked for another ten-pull.

In the summoning animation, a purple light streaked across the sky.

This time, You Luoming didn’t skip.

He prayed as he clicked through the results one by one.

“Blue pistol, blue sword, blue gauntlets…

Taoqi!” “Even though a Sequence 0 Sis Tao can provide a shield, she only has 1,600 Defense.

How many cannon blasts can that shield actually block?” Brushing past Taoqi’s character card in disappointment, another purple light flashed— It was Chixia!

This ten-pull had yielded a double purple!

[Convene Successful—Taoqi, Chixia!] [When adding the characters “Taoqi” and “Chixia” to the Team Setup for the first time, you will obtain their Resonance abilities and combat experience.] [You can only possess the Resonance abilities of one character at a time.

You may switch to other characters in the Team Setup at any time (no cooldown).] “Awesome, it really is Empress Ma!

Bro Jiyan, we’re saved!” You Luoming cheered inwardly.

In the animation on the interface, the short, red-haired girl burst into a bright, energetic smile: “Hehe!

Chixia, the hero of justice, answers your call!” “You couldn’t have come at a better time, Jinzhou’s Feathered Hero.” You Luoming’s eyes lit up.

He quickly exited the [Convene] interface and added ‘Chixia’ to his [Team Setup].

[Importing “Chixia” Resonance abilities and combat experience.

Estimated time: 3 seconds…] A massive amount of skills and knowledge surged into You Luoming’s mind—shooting techniques, firearm maintenance, wind direction analysis…

Unlike the last time when he passed out after receiving the ‘Rover’ abilities, receiving this power placed no physical burden on You Luoming.

He originally wanted to strip the Echoes off the ‘Rover’ and equip them onto ‘Chixia’, but remembering that losing the Echoes would mean losing his time-stop ability, he had to stop.

“If I can’t equip Echoes, I’ll have to make up for it with a weapon.

Oh, right!

I got a 4-star weapon selector box from the mail earlier.” With that thought, You Luoming quickly opened the Returning Soul Weapon Supply Box in his inventory, selected the weapon “Undying Flame,” and equipped it to Chixia.

He locked his gaze onto the distant Fractsidus members, the coldness in his eyes almost turning tangible.

Now, the tables had turned!

Not far away, a smug grin already plastered the tall, thin Fractsidus member’s face.

“So what if he’s a Resonator?

He’ll still die under our artillery!

Everyone, increase firepower!

He’s at his limit.

Blow him to pieces!” “Yes, sir!” Cruel smiles spread across the faces of the other members.

*Bang!* Amidst the roaring artillery, a sharp gunshot suddenly rang out.

A Fractsidus member collapsed instantly.

“What?!” The tall, thin member gasped in shock.

His eyes locked onto You Luoming, and he screamed, “That guy has a gun?!” You Luoming calmly switched his active character from ‘Chixia’ to ‘Rover’, triggered a brief time-stop to halt the incoming shells, and then switched back to ‘Chixia’.

*Bang!* Another gunshot, and another Fractsidus member bit the dust.

You Luoming let out a soft chuckle.

*You shoot me, I don’t lose HP.* *I shoot you, every shot is a headshot.* The Fractsidus members in reality were much easier to deal with than those in the game.

This was his first time killing someone, but his heart remained entirely untroubled, as if he had merely stepped on an ant.

“That kid is at the end of his rope!

Hold the line, increase firepower!” The tall, thin member shrieked, ordering the others to intensify their fire, while he quietly slinked backward.

Before anyone noticed, he had slipped behind everyone else and bolted.

*Bang!* A bullet pierced straight through the back of his head, blooming into a spectacular splash of blood.

“Just clowns putting their own heads up for sale,” You Luoming sneered.

He snorted, and another blue-tier pistol appeared in his other hand.

He had never said he could only shoot one gun at a time.

*Bang!

Bang!* *Bang!

Bang!* *Bang!

Bang!* On the southwest side of the Central Plains, Chixia, who was leading a squad of Patrollers, suddenly froze in her tracks.

Seeing this, Yangyang asked in confusion beside her, “What’s wrong, Chixia?” “I…

I think I suddenly felt my own Resonance frequency just up ahead?” Logically, every Resonator’s ability was unique, yet she felt a power that shared the exact same origin as hers.

The feeling was so real, as if she had been split in two—one half here, and the other half over there.

This unprecedented sensation nearly fried Chixia’s brain.

But now was clearly not the time to ponder such things.

She shook her head vigorously.

“Never mind, let’s hurry!

We can’t let You Luoming hold the line all by himself.

That guy runs so fast—by the time we gathered everyone, he was already gone.” Meanwhile, the “struggling” You Luoming was already slaughtering his way through the battlefield.

In the blink of an eye, a third of the Fractsidus squad had been wiped out.

“Run!” The remaining members could no longer endure this incredibly unfair battle.

They dropped their heavy firearms and scattered in panic.

“Trying to run?

Not a chance!” With no one firing at Jiyan anymore, You Luoming was finally freed from his defensive constraints.

Like a beast unleashed, he bared his sharp fangs.

Holding the Undying Flame, he channeled his scorching, violent Resonance energy into the bullets and unleashed Chixia’s Resonance Skill.

(For those unfamiliar with Chixia, this is similar to Marco Polo’s Skill 1 in King of Glory.) A rapid-fire volley of bullets precisely picked off every Fractsidus member within his line of sight.

He hit exactly where he aimed; every shot found its mark.

The number of Fractsidus members dwindled at an even faster rate than before.

“Now things are heating up!” Pressing his advantage, You Luoming kept his dual pistols spitting fire without pause.

With every bang, another figure fell.

Beyond seven paces, the gun is fast!

And he was both lightning-fast and dead accurate!

One of the Fractsidus members looked back, only to find most of his comrades gone.

Terrified out of his wits, he shrieked, “Scatter!” This concise yet effective command sent the remaining Fractsidus members scattering like beads from a broken necklace.

“Heh, warm-up’s over.

Full firepower!” You Luoming sneered and suddenly lunged forward, spinning his body.

The blazing heat within him surged into his dual pistols, unleashing a spinning hail of violent, explosive bullets.

This was none other than Chixia’s Resonance Liberation—Blazing Flames!

“SHOW-TIME!” *Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!* The gunfire across the wilderness finally ceased.

You Luoming raised the Undying Flame.

A wisp of white smoke curled up from the scorching barrel, which he gently blew away.

“Hmm?

Still someone breathing?” Scanning the bodies with his Sensor, You Luoming keenly noticed a Fractsidus member lying right by his feet, playing dead.

Realizing his cover was blown, the member leaped up.

He channeled his Resonance energy to coat his entire body in stone armor, glaring at You Luoming with forced bravado.

“Surprised?

I’m a Resonator too!

Your bullets can’t pierce my armor!” “Well, good for you.” You Luoming’s expression remained entirely deadpan as he holstered his pistols.

Extending his right hand, the Commando of Conviction materialized naturally in his grip.

Character Switch—’Rover’.
