Volume 1 Clone Army Chapter 95: Knife Fight (Part 1)
When Li Jiu and his team members returned to the gambling battle sleep room, they happened to see Captain William returning from another lounge with a few of his men.
Before entering the hibernation chamber, the ten players from both sides looked at each other across the bulletproof glass in the middle of the hibernation chamber.
At this moment, the expressions of both parties seemed a little strange...
Although Li Jiu and his team won the first gambling battle, they looked solemn and worried. On the contrary, the expressions of Captain William's team seemed very relaxed, as if they didn't care about the defeat in the last battle at all.
Even Captain William raised the corner of his mouth and gave Li Jiu a cold sneer.
"Haha, these guys seem to be very confident." Li Jiu smiled indifferently.
Judging from the opponent's expressions, Captain William and his men seemed to be confident and determined to win the upcoming battle.
The team members on Li Jiu's side were already a little worried about the next battle, so after seeing this scene, their expressions naturally became more solemn...
However, as the initiator of the gambling war, Li Jiu didn't care much.
Because, in his opinion, he had already won one game. According to the best-of-three rule, he only needed to win one more game to win the final victory. If he could win the next battle by chance, he would not need to play the New Year Square map again, which would be the best.
But, even if he unfortunately lost the next game, it didn't matter to Li Jiu, because he was almost sure of winning the last battle, New Year Square!
So Li Jiu had adjusted his mentality at this time. Since he couldn't find a good way to contain Captain William and Mad Wolf, he would just do his best in the next battle in the arena. If he could win, that would be the best. If he couldn't win, forget it. He would just treat it as playing a game with those wolf cubs...
So, with this relaxed and happy mood, Li Jiu lay down in the hibernation capsule with a smile.
…
After everyone lay down in the hibernation capsule, they quickly entered the arena, the virtual battlefield.
“Swish, swish, swish…”
As soon as Li Jiu and his teammates' consciousness appeared in the virtual battlefield, they immediately controlled the virtual characters and took out their respective melee weapons.
After Li Jiu took out the Nepalese machete, he quickly looked around at the situation.
The terrain here is almost exactly the same as the arena in FireWire, but because the virtual battlefield simulates reality 100%, the environment here looks extremely realistic. With the naked eye alone, you can't tell the difference from the real world.
This circular battlefield was surrounded by tall blue-grey stone walls, and the ground was also paved with huge stones. In the middle of the battlefield was a square arena made of a large number of huge stones. On both sides of the arena, there were two thick stone pillars several dozen meters high, which pointed straight into the sky above William.
After looking at the environment of the virtual battlefield, Li Jiu glanced at the melee weapons in the hands of the team members.
At a glance, it was exactly the equipment he saw last time.
Captain Kachi uses an axe with a camouflage pattern, Scar uses a golden axe, Bacchus uses a military shovel, and the hot beauty Bella uses a curved Malay sword.
Li Jiu and his team's birthplace was actually in a sunken space in the wall, which could barely be considered a bandit's home. Opposite them, at the other end of the battlefield, was Captain William's CT home.
At this moment, the teammates were holding their weapons tightly in their hands, looking at the enemy opposite with vigilance.
"Set off!"
When Li Jiu saw that the people on the opposite side had already set out, he restrained his expression, waved his hand forward, and spoke in a deep voice to his teammates.
While speaking, he rushed out first with a Nepalese machete in hand.
Hearing Li Jiu's call, the teammates grabbed their weapons without hesitation and rushed out following Li Jiu.
Although everyone was worried about Captain William and Mad Wolf, two guys with 200 health points each, no one showed any fear after the battle began.
Because they are all mercenaries, a profession that prohibits cowardice!
…
On the other side, after Captain William and his men appeared, they quickly rushed towards Li Jiu and his men.
Captain William used a green Malay sword, Captain Mad Wolf had a pair of military brass knuckles, Lieutenants Kino and Sangji used batons, and Private First Class Morse used a shiny wrench...
…
"Tread, step, step..."
The chaotic sound of footsteps echoed in the empty and silent virtual battlefield, and the two sides of the battle soon met near the square stone platform in the middle.
What surprised Li Jiu was that when he rushed to the stone platform, Captain William on the opposite side waved his green Malay sword without hesitation and rushed directly towards him...
"Eh? Good , very good! Hehe, this is really like there is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to hell but you insist on coming!"
When Li Jiu saw Captain William rushing towards him with a sinister smile, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He couldn't help but smile coldly in his heart and rushed over at a faster speed.
He was worried that this guy would avoid him and kill other teammates.
But I didn't expect that this blind young leader would dare to come to me on his own initiative...
In fact, the reason why this situation surprised Li Jiu was mainly because he had a preconceived notion that Captain William had seen his methods after the last battle in the bar and would not dare to challenge him easily again.
However, Li Jiu didn't know that during the last fight in the War Bar, Captain William didn't accept it at all...
Last time in the bar, Li Jiu took advantage of Captain William's carelessness and gained the upper hand, and then he never gave Captain William any chance to turn the tables. Therefore, Captain William felt that he was just careless at the time, which gave Li Jiu the opportunity to commit a crime. If he were to fight Li Jiu again, he was confident that he could easily defeat Li Jiu...
It was for this reason that Captain William added the close combat map of the arena to this gambling battle. He wanted to take this opportunity to severely trample and ravage Li Jiu in retaliation for the humiliation he suffered in the War Bar last time!
So, until this moment, Captain William never had the idea of avoiding Li Jiu.
At the same time, when Li Jiu and Captain William were facing off, the others did not fight together, but each found an opponent and fought one-on-one.
Because everyone wants to find out the strength of their opponent before the battle begins.
Captain Kaqi confronted Captain Mad Wolf, and it was Kaqi who took the initiative to find the other party because she knew that apart from Li Jiu, she was the only one among the team members who could deal with this man.
Scar Brother confronted the white Lieutenant Kino without hesitation. He seemed to have already identified this guy who had killed him with a shotgun.
Bacchus, who was like a black iron tower, faced another black lieutenant named Sanji, who was almost the same size as him.
As for the last one, Private First Class Moss, who seemed to be the weakest, was naturally dealt with by Bella.
…
When Li Jiu and Captain William rushed to the square arena, they started close combat in the blink of an eye.
“Whoosh!”
When Captain William was two meters away from Li Jiu, a fierce light flashed in his eyes. Holding the Malay sword in his right hand, he stabbed Li Jiu's eyebrows without warning, causing a violent sound of breaking wind!
He believed that his speed of attack was much faster than Li Jiu's, and he also had the bonus of a running start. If he attacked first, the private boy in front of him would definitely not be able to dodge and would definitely die on the spot!
But unfortunately, he underestimated Li Jiu...
Since he knew that his attack speed was faster than Li Jiu's, wouldn't Li Jiu know it?
With Li Jiu's rich combat experience, how could he not take precautions after knowing that the opponent possessed a speed far beyond that of ordinary people because of taking double gene enhancers?
In fact, when Captain William rushed over, Li Jiu had already begun to concentrate and be on guard!
When Li Jiu saw that Captain William was still two meters away from him, he couldn't help but attack, and a cold smile appeared ...
"squeak!……"
Just as Captain William was about to pierce Li Jiu's forehead with the Malay sword, a rapid friction sound suddenly sounded on the ground...
It turned out that Li Jiu was moving rapidly when he suddenly braked, while still maintaining the running posture with his right foot in front and his left foot behind...
Because Captain William had already estimated the distance and speed between the two when he attacked. If his calculations were followed, his sword would definitely hit Li Jiu in the head!
However, after Li Jiu suddenly stopped, he stretched out his arm, leaned forward and stabbed out with his sword, but it only stopped 3 centimeters in front of Li Jiu's forehead and could no longer move forward...
After seeing this scene, Captain William broke out in a cold sweat on his back. His face instantly became panicked and he quickly retracted his right hand.
Because, his offensive power was exhausted at this moment, if he didn't adjust his posture quickly, he would only be chopped...
However, how could Li Jiu let go of such a good opportunity easily?
At the moment when Captain William stabbed with the sword, Li Jiu quickly turned his body to the right, exerted force with his right foot, and rushed forward suddenly!
At the same time, he swung the Nepalese machete tightly held in his right hand vigorously, from left to right, towards Captain William's neck, and drew a cold white light diagonally upwards!
"Go!"
Li Jiu raised a hint of cold smile at the corner of his mouth and shouted in a low voice. The sharp Nepalese machete slashed across Captain William's neck without any hindrance and directly cut his throat!
Even if he has 200 health points, it's useless...
When Li Jiu and Captain William passed each other, the guy had already been sent back to his hometown, and his virtual corpse left on the ring also quickly disappeared into thin air...
