Frontal Assault 2

Whichever it was, seeing a humanoid silhouette sprinting towards oneself at such a terrifying speed caused the stunned guards to feel alarm, especially when Damon got right into their faces. They lifted up their guns to fire at him in order to slow him down while also shouting to alarm their fellow men.

Alas, it was far too late. Damon had not simply shot them from afar because energy bullets, for all their power, had limited range for effectiveness. Damon could guarantee a shot on anything within a hundred meters, but beyond that, he would be wasting energy.

So he charged close to the group, not to attract shots or display his speed, but simply to enter the necessary range to dispose of them. Damon was not a skilled marksman, so he had to slow down and take aim before firing.
