Chapter 93: Number 4’s Plan
Players 4 and 5 trembled as they hugged the tree trunk, listening to the huge sounds in the farm. The sky grew darker, the surroundings quieted down, and they could only hear their own breathing.
The two didn’t dare say a word, watching the instance channel on one side, hoping to see useful messages to get them out of trouble, while anxiously observing the surrounding environment on the other.
They were too close to the house where the mutant specially slaughtered prey. They originally thought they could find supplies first, but before they could enter the door, they were trapped on the tree and didn’t dare move, afraid of attracting the mutant’s attention.
The predator’s nature relied on blood and smell to track prey. Any movement, and the two of them would die here.
There were traps all around outside the farm. To run out, they also had to hold out until tomorrow morning.
“We can’t stay any longer, we have to find a way to change to a.”
Player 4 spoke in a lingering fear lowered voice. Before he finished speaking, a biting cold wind blew past his ear.
Plop,
The lingering fear who had long been numb from squatting fell from the tree. Lingering fear widened her eyes in terror, her scream stuck in her throat and didn’t dare come out.
Stuck in the tree trunk beside her was an arrowhead. Lingering fear was blown down by the strong wind from the flying arrowhead.
She used both hands to try to pull out the arrow, but it was stuck too deep and couldn’t be removed for the time being.
Lingering fear anxiously searched below for her boyfriend’s figure. Right in front, beside the damp firewood pile, the mutant squinted and made excited screams at the two of them.
The ugly face’s expression made her heart go cold by half.
Although under the tree was soft soil, falling unprepared from a two-story height wasn’t that easy to bear.
Lingering fear was enduring the pain and crawling up from the ground when the mutant in front had already raised the crossbow at Lingering fear again.
Lingering fear was also worried about her boyfriend’s injuries and hurriedly hugged the tree trunk. If she hadn’t dodged to the back in time and desperately climbed down, the second arrow would have shot through her head!
“Are you okay?” Lingering fear’s feet landed, and she immediately went to help her boyfriend up. “Run fast!”
Fortunately in the misfortune, lingering fear’s fall wasn’t too serious. The mutant needed time to reload, so the two ran wildly in the farm with injuries, looking for a place to dodge.
At night they couldn’t see the road clearly and ran around chaotically, nervously breaking into a house.
It was very dirty here, full of bloody smell and feces smell. There was a person in the corner cage, Player 7. His hands, feet, and neck were all bound with blade steel wire, and any movement would cut his flesh open.
Seeing someone come, Player 7 struggled desperately to make sounds, winking at them for help.
After only hesitating for a second, lingering fear went up to help pry open the rusty lock. Lingering fear also took out pliers to prepare to cut the steel wire on Player 7.
Her heart kept chanting, hurry, faster.
But her pliers were rusted and used bumpily.
Just cut halfway, footsteps sounded outside, and lingering fear’s face also changed. He pulled lingering fear and urged,
“Don’t care about him, let’s go first!”
Player 7 immediately widened his eyes and looked at them pleadingly. “Please, help me untie the steel wire on my feet.”
“Just two left, he’ll be killed! It’ll be done in a moment.” Lingering fear was anxious and sweating profusely, still wanting to cut the steel wire.
“Didn’t you also plan to save people?!”
Lingering fear flung off the pliers in her hand and threw them five steps away from Player 7.
“That was to let him hold back the monster!”
Lingering fear scolded, grabbed the face-changed lingering fear, and ran to the back door.
“He wouldn’t live long after being caught anyway. Saving him from the cage is already doing our utmost. He should be somewhat useful. I can’t care about anything else! I only want you to live!”
Not letting this person desperately run away and then be caught by the mutant, how would they have time to escape.
Lingering fear’s face was pale, looking at her boyfriend whose expression suddenly turned ferocious, her heart sank to the bottom.
It was him who wanted to use Player 7, but pushed the responsibility onto her, speaking so righteously.
Lingering fear still turned back in the end to pick up the pliers and gave them to Player 7 before running.
Lingering fear had injuries, health value down to 56, fatigue value 75%. He himself couldn’t run far and could only wait for lingering fear to go together.
The mutant had already chased to the door. Player 7 gratefully glanced at lingering fear, endured his constantly bleeding wrists, and hurriedly went to cut the steel wire on his feet.
If the mutant saw him escape, he would definitely die. Hurry to cut off the steel wire and there was still a chance to live.
It was also at this time that gunshots and a shrill scream rang out one after another in the farm.
Player 8 waited half a day with no one coming to save her, and in the instance channel raised the reward to half her fortune. Player 3 in leather jacket was a bit tempted.
He said he could come check the situation, would save only if possible, and the reward had to be given first.
To survive, Player 8 could only grit her teeth and agree. Player 3 in leather jacket had arrived, but their luck wasn’t good, just happening to run into three mutants.
Seeing they couldn’t win, Player 3 in leather jacket didn’t want the reward anymore and just wanted to run quick. Survival was most important first.
Leather jacket defense maxed, but head and legs weren’t safe!
Player 8 ran all the way watching her companion die, entering desperation her mentality collapsed too. Not taking her along, Player 3 wouldn’t get to run either!
Player 3 was also furious. He wanted to earn some upgrade materials, this person wanted his life!
He was desperately grabbed by her, such a delay, the mutant’s axe came down, Player 8’s scream abruptly stopped, one dead one injured.
Player 3 reacted fast too, leather jacket blocked most of the damage, then rolled into the grass in the night color, otherwise he would die too.
This leather jacket comparable to level 3 armor was completely scrapped, becoming an ordinary broken clothing.
At this moment, Player 3 grew angrier the more he thought, more anxious the angrier, feeling his chest twitching in pain.
No reward gotten, no supplies gotten, entered the farm for half a day, just broke a few corn, the treasured bottom-of-the-box leather jacket wasted not to mention, he only had 30 health points left. If the mutant touched him again, he’d die.
Never fought such a losing battle!
Now didn’t even know if he could hold out until instance end. Hoping the big shot in the group give some effort, kill off all the mutants, that was his only remaining hope.
Without leather jacket, holding a dagger, status bad again, going to fight was no different from sending death.
Just at this time, three or four gunshots rang out in succession, shattering the farm’s silence.
At the same time appeared the instance kill messages.
Player 3 first stunned, then incredulously, with a bit of surprise widened his eyes.
Who was hiding so deep, actually had a gun in hand!
At this moment, Yu Jiang who was squatting on the roof slowly moving, wearing a black raincoat as ghille suit, thought the same.
Holding the truth, could wait until now to act, staying calm was one thing, probably not many bullets in hand either.
Envy,
Skill cooldown times were all very long, dedicated weapons either had no cooldown or short time.
She didn’t dare use them either, wanted to hold on a bit longer, see if there was opportunity to grab kills.
The reward for killing mutants was really tempting.
Couldn’t say grab either. What if other players just beat the mutants half dead, this was called finishing blow!
Just thinking, the rusted sheet metal underfoot suddenly broke a large hole. When Yu Jiang fell, that “fuck” was dead stuck in her throat.
Yu Jiang: Grabbing kills doesn’t sound good, finishing blow sounds so nice
