Girls und War

It looked like a Samoyed that was seriously catching mice in the snow.

The snow at night vaguely reflected the light. As a sniper who has been training in the snow all year round, Smiley's passing behavior obviously did not escape Anna's eyes.

But the smiley face isn't as stupid as you might think.

Although Anna easily found Smiley's movements, her strange movement route caused Anna's first few shots to miss.

Anna noticed that the anti-sniper run was very novel and seemed to have only been seen in Xia Shu.

Anna guessed that the other party must be related to Xia Shu's special forces. Maybe she had learned a few tricks from Xia Shu during her time.

Considering that she would be studying abroad with Xia Shu after the New Year, Anna stopped forcing a smile and softened it a little, letting her slip past her.

From then on, the third day of the sniper competition came to an end.

By the morning of the fourth day, when dawn broke, the roads leading to the central alpine competition area from various mountain ranges were littered with corpses.

The scene was so tragic that it seemed like the battlefield where Ashura and Indra fought their final battle - also known as the Ashura battlefield.

After this battle, less than half of the players remained in the entire map.

Among the remaining half, a considerable number suffered gunshot wounds of varying severity.

But from now on, the whole game will not weaken in the slightest.

On the contrary, as the combat area becomes smaller and smaller, the battles between the players will only become more intense.

Until the final champion is decided.

At this time, the top-ranked players had already left the mountain trail before dawn and started heading to the high-altitude mountains to choose their own hidden hiding spots.

At this point, they had already gotten enough kills, so there was no point in continuing to squat.

There may be some players outside the field who are just following the circle to survive, but it doesn’t matter whether those guys care or not.

Instead of wasting time on those rookies who have no ambition and play passively, it is better to go up the mountain on time and start setting up your own action area early.

The sniper control area that Xia Shu created in last year's competition did inspire many elite snipers.

After Xia Shu won the championship last year, many people studied her regional deployment tactics.

It turned out that this large-scale control area is indeed much more useful than a small sniper point.

So they didn't want to waste time in this competition.

The sooner you can reach the central area, the sooner you can start choosing a spot to dig a hole.

If you go in later, the good seats may have been taken by others.

At that time, not only will you not be able to happily hide in the safe zone and ambush others, but you will also have to bear the additional risk of being named by other players.

Therefore, any player who has even a little bit of championship ambition knows what to do.

Before the competition, Chunxiang had already carefully analyzed this point for several girls from the special forces, so Zhan Jian was very clear about it.

Originally, she did intend to do so, but now, the situation seems to have changed.

Because she felt that someone was watching her.

At this time, the sky gradually brightened. Zhan Blade was lying in the snow with a cloak he had sewn draped over his back.

It was a wrinkled fur cloak with messy seams that made it look a bit ugly.

But fortunately, the fur was of good quality and solid color. When covered with it, it was not only very warm, but also indistinguishable from the snow from a distance.

Zhan Jian lay under the cloak and felt his hands were a little stiff, so he blew on them and rubbed them gently.

Before my eyes was a whole peaceful and quiet snowfield, and from afar I could see several corpses lying on the snow.

But Zhan Zhan didn't dare to move.

Because she knew that there was another person hiding in the snow, someone who had been staring at her for a long time.

The man was extremely patient and had excellent marksmanship.

Zhan Jian knew that if she showed her head even slightly, a cold bullet would be waiting for her.

Don't ask her why she knows.

Sometimes, the perception of danger is more important than rational judgment.

Some details on the battlefield are difficult to distinguish with the senses.

But your subconscious mind will tell you that something is wrong, there is definitely a problem.

And the fact is exactly as Zhan Zhan guessed.

At this time, the City Alliance was hiding in the shadows of the snow, with their finger lightly on the trigger, ready to fire a fatal shot at any time.

She had been exploring here for a long time and knew that a contestant had been blocking the mountain trail all night.

Now was the time to retreat, and the City Alliance seized this opportunity.

As long as Zhan Jian is even slightly careless, the city alliance will mercilessly pull the trigger and pierce her body.

883. The difference between a lucky person and an unlucky person is only a thought away

Zhan Jian is not a fool. He knows that he cannot act rashly in such an extremely dangerous environment.

Similarly, the City Alliance was not stupid. She believed that the other party could not discover her position now, and she was very sure that the interceptor hiding in the snow would move first.

So there is only one thing left for the City Alliance to do.

That is to wait patiently.

And it was obviously impossible for Zhan Zhan to be constantly on guard due to his own vigilance.

If the alliance in the city does not move, the time she can wait is limited.

This time may be ten or twenty minutes.

But after an hour or two, the sky was already bright, and Zhan Zhan had to make a choice.

Should we continue to wait or head into the mountains?

The war blade was in a dilemma.

At this time, the City Alliance clearly had a great advantage.

With her vast experience, she could easily grasp the psychological state of a newcomer like Zhan Ren.

She knew very well that the other party would not be able to stay at this mountain path forever.

It could be ten minutes later, it could be the next second.

In short, the war blade is about to move.

The time is at hand.

But just when Zhan Jian couldn't help but take the risk and test it out, the situation changed again.

Another girl came over from the other side of the ridge, and it looked like she was about to pass by here.

Zhan Zhan hesitated for a moment, then patiently crouched in the snow pit. It seemed he was going to use this girl to create an opportunity for retreat.

The City Alliance, more than 200 meters away, also discovered the girl.

Although I don't know why someone would choose to pass through the mountain pass at this time.

But after the situation changed, the City Alliance didn't know whether it should take the initiative.

So she calmed down and hid quietly in the snow pit.

As for who that girl is, it's just a coincidence.

Xia Shu glanced at the screen and found that the girl was none other than the little fighting dog of the sea area, Miss Elena.

Seeing Elena's expression as she cautiously observed Xue Di, Xia Shu couldn't help but shake his head.

Why didn’t you come earlier or later? Why did you come at this time?

Isn't it courting death to try to cross the mountain path in broad daylight?

But think about it, Elena's appearance at this time seems to be just the right time to help Zhan Jian break the deadlock.

If she didn't come, Zhan Zhan would have no choice but to retreat from the City Alliance.

So from this point of view, Elena came at the right time.

The reason why Elena appeared at the entrance of the mountain road now was because her previous experience was too bumpy.

Originally, she should have been at a similar pace as the other contestants, having walked to the trailhead last night, and then engaging in a fierce night battle with the other contestants in the same group.

But as luck would have it, Elena's birthplace was placed in a rather strange location.

——That is an ice and snow canyon on the edge of the snow-capped mountains.

The structure of this canyon is quite complex, and the internal geographical structure is wrinkled, like a large piece of sand being squeezed and stretched, forming a large number of cracks.

If you want to cross this canyon, it's easy. After confirming the terrain from a high place, you can move in a fixed direction to get through.

But Elena's birthplace happened to be inside the canyon, and she had no idea what the surrounding terrain was like.

Now I'm at a loss.

Moreover, the canyon was covered with ice and snow, and the cliffs were extremely steep, so it was impossible to climb up and take a look.

So Elena could only wander around in the canyon like a headless fly for a long time. It took her a whole day and a whole night to find the exit.

At this time, Elena was dizzy and dizzy from hunger.

There were no supplies in the canyon. She was cold and hungry, so she had to find a supply point as soon as possible to survive.

But what was even more unfortunate was that after searching several hunters' cabins, everything inside had been taken away by others.

The person searching the spot earlier was also quite wicked. She clearly couldn't carry so many supplies, but to prevent others from getting them, she destroyed all the extra batteries and food.

As for Elena, she could only look at the charcoal on the ground with tears in her eyes, and continue to search while walking forward.

At the same time, she was also very honored to be the only lucky person in this competition who still had nothing to win after two days of competition.

But there is always a way out.

On the third day, Elena, who had been searching all night, finally found her first supply in a village at the foot of a mountain.

When she stuffed the jerky into her mouth, Elena was so moved that she almost cried.

Encouraged by this, they marched for most of the night and finally caught up with the others on the morning of the fourth day.

This is the current mountain pass.

But Xia Shu was also very strange.

Logically speaking, as a person who is being focused on training in the sea area, there is no reason for Elena not to know that she cannot pass through here during the day.

After all, the map was sent to them in advance, and any veteran with a little experience knew that this was a strategically important transportation route.

Basically, from the third day to the end of the fifth day - at least during the day - it is not suitable to venture through directly.

The best option is to either seize the opportunity and march at the fastest speed to be the first group of players to arrive through the mountain pass before dawn on the third day, or to directly block the enemy with an advantageous position here.

Or you can just stay calm and stick to the poison circle, and be the last batch to enter the central competition area on the sixth day.

The advantages brought by the former are too numerous to list one by one.

The disadvantages of the latter are also very obvious, such as being unable to grab airdropped equipment, being unable to find a good hiding area, being easily intercepted, and so on.

Basically, players with a little ambition will choose to rush here first, and those who lag behind, even if they are lucky enough to get a very high survival ranking, will have their final ranking greatly reduced due to insufficient other combat points.

As for people like Elena who couldn't go up or down and even had to pass the mountain pass in broad daylight, Xia Shu couldn't understand it.

But this can't be blamed on Elena.

Because as a relatively newcomer, she really has no experience in participating in competitions.

Logically speaking, these things should have been taught to her by the seniors.

But Jack and Hawkeye were busy preparing for the competition and had no time to teach Elena. Suicune was a laissez-faire teacher, the kind who taught the child only after the teacher had introduced him.

So Elena could only rely on her own understanding to analyze the map bit by bit.

According to Elena's (naive) analysis, although the mountain passes in several mountains are dangerous, they should be fine as long as she is careful.

Since she didn't have an accurate understanding of the map, it was no wonder that she appeared in front of Smiley Face and the City Alliance in such a daze.
