Chapter 413 Players' Lives
Jimmy ultimately failed to reach the safety zone in the fourth round of shrinking circles.
The enemy, who was ambushing somewhere unknown, waited patiently until Jimmy was overwhelmed by the slowly approaching poison circle and tried to move to another place to hide, and then shot him out of the map.
"Why are there so many foreigners in this PUBG game? Is there another idiot who sells helmets to foreigners?"
The Voldemort player who killed Jimmy came out from the bushes. He had no intention of picking up the boxes of the three poor guys and turned around and walked towards the safe zone.
The teammates of the Voldemort player who died were still online. They were all lying down waiting for the Voldemort boss they were randomly matched with to lead them to win the game. One of them had just checked the official website before joining the queue and actively explained to the boss: "It's a small version update that was just released today. In addition to the group of BOSSs led by Shan Ji Ge Chen Haonan, a third force will be randomly refreshed in the map. This third force is hostile to us players and the BOSS. It is the kind of NPC force that will compete with us for the first place."
Voldemort said with a . "What are the officials thinking? If they want to increase the difficulty, why don't they let in more players and open up more login helmets?"
NPCs will compete with players for the first place and the chicken-eating game. Newbies will hate the authorities for being inhuman, but experts don't care at all - no matter how powerful an NPC is, there will come a day when someone will develop a strategy to guide them; once there is a strategy, the NPC controlled by the system will be a piece of cake, right?
Lord Voldemort was walking and suddenly rolled on the ground.
With a whoosh—bang, a crossbow arrow appeared on a nearby tree trunk.
"Boss, be careful!" The teammate who was lying on the ground was extremely nervous.
Big Boss Voldemort skillfully rolled over and hid in the nearest ditch, crouching down and drawing his gun in one go. Before his teammates who were sharing the field of vision with him could react, he had already fired several shots in counterattack.
On a big tree dozens of meters away, a large cloud of black mist burst out from the dense branches and leaves, and a square box fell from the tree canopy and hit the ground.
"Fuck! Boss is awesome!" The four teammates who died cheered in unison.
Voldemort groaned, looked at the map, and thought that there might be someone else passing through this road, so he simply ambushed them in the ditch...
"Boss, how do you know the enemy will hide in that tree?" the female player among the lying teammates asked curiously.
While staring at the box under the tree and observing whether anyone was approaching, Voldemort pretended to be calm and said, "Nothing, just a routine operation. When you move around the map, pay attention to which places are suitable for ambushes and which places are suitable for use as cover when suddenly attacked. Then you won't panic when something happens."
"It's true that it's not easy to be discovered if you ambush in a tree, but if the sneak attack fails, it's hard to move when you're counterattacked, and you'll easily become a target. I personally don't recommend it. The best solution is to be able to advance and retreat in a place where you can."
"Boss 666!"
"I'm tired of saying the word awesome!"
"Master, are you accepting disciples?"
"Boss, add me as a friend!"
The Voldemort boss who played Chicken Dinner in a random match easily gained 4 younger brothers.
Jimmy hung up the mental matrix, handed the branded badge to the next batch of comrades waiting to be tested with a grim look on his face, and walked out of the barracks.
Outside the barracks, Jerome and the officers gathered all the defeated militiamen together, allowing everyone to speak freely and exchange their experiences of failure.
Jimmy walked to the group of losers and sat cross-legged, then heard a comrade say, "Those brutal black-haired humans in the illusion are better at using Kenyan-style firearms than we are. We are not familiar with weapons at all, and we are at a great disadvantage when fighting them."
"I don't know if you have noticed." Another militiaman who was nearly two meters tall said, "In the test, everyone's strength and speed seemed to be the same. We appeared in an abandoned village and encountered a group of black-haired people. They were obviously very thin, but their strength was about the same as ours. I couldn't even take away the knife of a little girl who was not even as tall as my chest. I was almost hacked to death by her."
"Yes, we have no advantage in strength. If we can't quickly find a suitable weapon, we have almost no chance of winning." Another militiaman said angrily, "Those brutal black-haired people are very good at using terrain to ambush. We didn't find out who attacked us until all of us were killed."
"Those people are really despicable. They used boxes of weapons and equipment as bait. We were fooled by mistake..."
"I was dragged into the well and strangled to death by the bowstring without the enemy even seeing me. God knows how those black-haired people thought of hiding in the well and waiting for others to approach!"
When Jimmy heard about the various ways his comrades died, he realized that he was not the only one who died in a particularly miserable way, and he felt much better.
The militiamen who are thrown into the chicken-eating battlefield must get first place in three games to pass the assessment.
The difficulty of this test is, it is easy, if you are lucky enough and encounter a match with a poison circle, you may be able to complete it; but it is also difficult, because they are also rivals...
On the first day of the illusion test, none of the thousand reserve militiamen who took the test passed.
The militia team with the best luck only made it to second place before they were besieged by three bosses, Chen Haonan, Director Qi, and Master Wu, who were attracted by the despicable Earth players and had to leave the scene in disappointment.
Jerome, who was usually good-tempered, turned green in the face, and the next day he dragged this reserve force into a training session to the point of ecstasy - for the aliens, the illusion test was only open every other day, and the day of rest in between was just the right time for Jerome to vent his anger.
On the third day, every militiaman who was undergoing the illusionary assessment entered the venue with murderous intent...
Then I continue to be annoyed by the outrageous actions of the Earth players.
There is no way. The PUBG map has been thoroughly figured out by Earth players who are keen on making strategies. Remembering the terrain of all areas in the map is just a routine operation for old players. Which place is suitable for sneak attacks and which place is suitable for hiding people and shooting from behind, the old sinister Voldemorts have remembered it by heart long ago.
Attracting monsters to harm people, bait tactics, trap tactics (alchemical bomb with delayed detonation), guerrilla tactics, armed mediation, ambush attacks and cold shootings... and so on, any team of players with a commander can play them out.
On the fourth day, when Jerome, whose chin was protruding from anger, was drilled , no militiaman dared to complain.
While the players of "Difference" were unconsciously destroying the mental will of the poor, weak and helpless reserve militia, the players of "Difference" were also not idle.
It is August on Earth, and there is not much time left in the summer vacation. A large number of students have to bid farewell to the vacation when they could have fun every day. The big guys in the player community are thinking about doing something before the vacation ends.
That day, as soon as Yang Ying came online after lunch, he received a team invitation from En Bu Zeng, and a private chat with his friend Tang Jia was flooded with messages: "Kuai is coming to Dutata City! There's an event going on!"
Yang Ying followed the advice and went to the Duta City Hall. When he came out, he saw more than 20 familiar IDs gathered in the yard of the City Hall.
There are not only friends like Entropy Does Not Increase, Gummy Candy, Gala, Mulberry Leaves Fallen, and Orange Cat Boss, but also the nanny players I'm Super Good, Green Beans, and Runaway Goldfish who usually don't participate in team activities with them, and even Give Me Medicine who almost always leads elite groups to kill monsters except for large-scale activities.
"Qingyue, where are we going?" Yang Ying asked curiously.
"Don't worry, Huahua will be online soon. Let's talk when we are all together." Enbuteng said.
Yang Ying said "Oh", and looked at the orange cat in surprise: "Orange Cat Boss, why are you here too? Do you have time to play with us?"
"Sister Ying, what are you saying? It's as if I've become estranged from you all. That's not true. Didn't I clear the spider's nest with Xiaotang and the others yesterday?" The orange cat boss said in a fuss.
"Bullshit, you came to play for less than half an hour and ran away." Tang Jia exposed the orange cat's true colors on the spot.
"I have something important to do. My wife is waiting for me to accompany her to eat boiled fish!" said the orange cat boss shamelessly.
After chatting for a while, Yang Ying saw the Blood Alliance channel prompt that Miao Bi Sheng Hua and Vanilla Pudding came online one after another.
After Miaobishenghua and Qin Guan joined the group and were teleported over, the crowd, who like Yang Ying didn't know the purpose of this activity yet, urged: "Huahua is here, can you tell us what the activity is?"
The leader of the Blood Alliance, Qin Guan, felt something was wrong at the time: "What's wrong with you? You guys only see the flowers when I'm standing here?"
"No, no, we saw you." Everyone replied perfunctorily.
"Damn it!" Qin Guan angrily pointed at this group of heartless people, "Be careful or I will hold a grudge against you. When the time comes, I won't help you anymore. Whoever dies will have to run on their own!"
Amid the laughter, En Bu Zeng and Miao Bi Sheng Hua, the two girls who were leading the whole thing, spoke up: "Okay, let's explain the situation to everyone before we set off."
Miaobishenghua started by saying, "Do you remember when we were first working on the epic quest "The Elegy of the Barcelo River", there were two Heroic NPCs from the 'Tachia Territory'?"
"I remember, there seemed to be one named Matthew and another named Thomas." Yang Ying nodded vigorously. She was moved when she was doing this task, and she still remembers it vividly.
Miaobishenghua smiled confidently and continued, "Later, when we were doing the mission of investigating cultists in Dutata City, it was the mission that Sister Zhao PY gave me. At that time, Sister Zhao showed me some cult files obtained from the Night Watch. There was a mention of the 'Eternal Sleeper' sect in it, and there were also traces of activities in the Taqiya territory."
"Oh, is that the time when a fisherman fished out the BOSS?" This incident happened recently and many players still remember it.
"Yes, that time." Miaobishenghua said, "The cult bosses at that time were all very lucrative, and each boss could drop a lot of materials. Two small blood alliances secretly plundered the boss that the fisherman caught, but one of them ended up disbanding because of uneven distribution. There was a lot of debate about this on the forum for a while."
Everyone understood and said happily, "Huahua, are you saying that we should go to Tachia and fight that kind of BOSS?"
Miaobishenghua and Enbuseng looked at each other, and both of them smiled confidently.
"That's right." En Buzeng said happily, "I mentioned this to Huahua before. We thought that since Tachia Territory is the territory of the Rhine Kingdom, given the nature of this game to focus on large maps, maybe the map of Tachia Territory has been made, but the players haven't triggered the world view breakthrough mission yet, so the teleportation point is not open to the players."
"Then the two of us stayed in Dutata City for a while to collect intelligence on Tachia Territory." Miaobishenghua took out a folded sheepskin map from his waist bag and excitedly spread it out to show everyone, "Hard work pays off. Huahua and I found a detailed map of the Rhine Kingdom in a bookstore in the inner city. Look, go north from Dutata City and follow this caravan route all the way up, and you will reach Tachia Territory!"
At the Innadili City Hall, Yang Qiu, who was asking about what his elder sister was doing as usual after her elder sister came online, spit out the iced cola with a "puff".
