Li Pu, who thought he had it in the bag, was now dumbfounded. He never expected that Wugeng Mingyue would react and be so lucky.
He launched a surprise attack, shooting down Mai Xiaowen and then turning his gun on the Bee Doctor. The first few shots had already shattered the Bee Doctor's armor, but unexpectedly, the Bee Doctor turned around and shot him dead.
"Armor shattered, utterly destroyed!!"
Li Pu looked down at Xu Jian on the far left and shouted loudly.
Xu Jian, who was healing himself, immediately stopped and ran straight to the spot where the gunshots had last been heard.
"Climb towards the target!!"
Xu Jian was making a last-ditch effort. His opponent was indeed severely wounded, but so was he.
"13 seconds!!"
Yang, who had already climbed into the evacuation point, shouted a warning. Xu Jian pursed his lips, glanced at the cover blocking the two of them, then turned his view to the left and climbed directly onto the pile of medical supplies on the left. He then turned back to the cover and jumped over it.
Smoke billowed behind the cover. The bee doctor, Wugengmingyue, lay on the ground and injected himself with two steroid injections, barely restoring one-third of his health to half. Just then, footsteps appeared above him from behind the cover.
He looked up abruptly, but at that moment, gunshots rang out overhead.
The silenced MP7 gunfire was continuous, and bullets kept sweeping around Wugeng Mingyue, but not a single one hit him.
This sudden thought gave Wugeng Mingyue a glimmer of hope. He suppressed the urge to fire, intending to wait until the enemy finished reloading before firing back. However, this glimmer of hope completely extinguished his last hope.
After Xu Jian finished shooting down At's Uluru with his MP7, he reloaded first and then dealt damage last. At this point, his MP7's drum magazine was full of bullets, all of them at level 5.
He frantically scanned his eyes, knowing that someone was inside. Just a second ago, he could hear the sound of a bee doctor administering hormones in the smoke.
He quickly found the bee doctor. Seeing the brief hit notification, Xu Jian instantly moved the gun back, and in the blink of an eye, Wugeng Mingyue, who was hiding in the smoke, was shot down.
Wipe out the team!
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!!!"
Xu Jian had no time to be happy. The moment the team wipe notification appeared, he switched to his knife and ran towards Li Pu. At that moment, Li Pu had just climbed to the container door.
"Eight seconds! Is that enough time?!"
Yang Ge was already at the evacuation point and could evacuate while downed; his red bar still had enough time. Li Pu, on the other hand, was still some distance from the evacuation point, and those 8 seconds were simply not enough time for him to crawl to it.
"It's too late! Just go in and don't worry about me!"
Although Li Pu hadn't given up and was crawling towards the evacuation point, he knew that time was running out.
Xu Jian didn't speak, but frowned and glanced at the time. When there were five seconds left on the countdown, he had already climbed to Li Pu's side.
Just as Xu Jian was about to touch Li Pu's fallen body, he leaped up, and in the middle of his leap, he actually picked up the fallen Li Pu and carried him on his back.
Xu Jian, carrying Li Pu on his back, leaped forward a short distance while still in mid-air.
"Holy crap! So skilled?!"
Li Pu's eyes widened slightly. In fact, Li Pu knew of a way to make it in time for the evacuation, which was to jump over someone's back. However, this was not a conventional technique and was not used under normal circumstances.
Even though Li Pu had practiced this back-jumping technique for a period of time, his success rate was only around 80%.
He said it was too late because he didn't want Xu Jian to try. There were only a few seconds left, and if he failed, Xu Jian would be burdened by his words and might not even be able to get out.
Right now, Xu Jian succeeded on his first try and is carrying him towards the evacuation point.
With only two seconds left on the crimson countdown, Xu Jian, moving slowly, was just a few steps away from the evacuation point.
As the countdown reached zero, the red countdown above finally turned green.
Evacuation successful!
Chapter 233 The Happiness of the Rich
Holy crap! That's awesome!!
Wow! Wow! Is that even possible?!
Holy crap, I could learn this technique my whole life!
Cheers erupted as the three Creepers disappeared together from the evacuation point, and the live stream chat was flooded with countless "666" and "?" comments.
"Brilliant!!"
Li Pu shook his head and gave Xu Jian a thumbs-up, which seemed to spring out of his own accord.
"Damn! So handsome!"
Yang turned around and put his arm around Xu Jian's shoulder, while patting Xu Jian's shoulder repeatedly with his other hand.
Just now, when Brother Yang fell to the ground in the evacuation point, Xu Jian's actions were clearly visible. The short distance that he jumped over was the most crucial. If he hadn't taken that step, Xu Jian wouldn't have been able to get into the evacuation point with Li Pu on his back.
"Hey~ You can do it without even having hands? It's a pity that neither team got any equipment, and they didn't even get an AW."
Xu Jian smugly shook his head, enjoying the cheers of the surrounding audience, and suddenly felt sorry for Versailles.
"Huh? No? You're actually putting on an act now?"
Xu Jian's expression, as if he wanted to keep praising me, made Brother Yang laugh and scold him, and Li Pu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
~~~~~
"Brothers or gold?!"
"Love your brothers!"
"Wow~~~ This scene is so touching. Xu Jian's actions perfectly embody the phrase 'never give up'. However, what's a bit hard to watch is that they seem to have forgotten that the flying squirrels and the packet-dropping tactic are still on the top of the tower. And with nearly five minutes left, they have enough time to eat their fill and run away."
"You can't blame them. Who would have thought that the two teams at the top of the tower wouldn't even go up? They just finished fighting, and under the influence of adrenaline, it would be inhuman to be able to think calmly."
"That's true. Alright, let's congratulate the Creeper on its successful evacuation with almost the entire map cleared."
This round has ended with Li Pu and his team's retreat. Trident, Bingbing King, XBG, and Three Little Tigers were wiped out. Only Creep and Avenger successfully retreated this round.
What's remarkable is that Li Pu and his team killed a total of 11 people in this round. They wiped out three Little Tigers in the vault below, and fought fiercely at the extraction point against Trident, XBG, and Bingbing Dawang teams.
Two of XBG's three members were knocked down by Bingbing Dawang and his team, but Xu Jian secretly finished off one of them, stealing a kill.
The 11 kills alone earned a reward of 3.3 million, and they also collected equipment from two teams, bringing their in-game earnings to 6.5 million. With the rewards, their total earnings approached 10 million.
They are already rolling in money.
The value of the three Creepers' warehouse has now reached 3450 million, after deducting losses. This warehouse value is now the highest.
More importantly, they've secured a key position, and for the next three rounds of the aerospace game, they have more funds than they can spend.
In terms of asset rankings, Avengers has climbed from last place to second, XBG is third, Trident is fourth, Pancake King is fifth, and Three Little Tigers is last.
It is worth noting that the Pancake King and the Three Little Tigers are already bankrupt.
Of these three teams, neither of them managed to escape successfully. The key point is that they were kicked to death without eating anything, and they didn't even take anything out of their pants. At this point, they were already on welfare.
With each team having just over a million yuan in funds, it was difficult to even afford the only five sets of housing.
With just over a million yuan, they could only choose between having five and a half sets of modified guns and five bullets, or having glass cannons.
During halftime, while the other teams were intensely discussing their starting items for the fourth game, the three members of the Creep team seemed quite relaxed, since as wealthy individuals, they had no financial worries in this regard.
"We're aiming for second place and striving for first. Right now, it's not us who's in a rush, but XBG and the three little tigers."
Li Pu glanced at the location of XBG and the three little tigers, and whispered to Brother Yang and Xu Jian.
Yang nodded: "XBG is nearly 300 million behind Avengers, which is about the cost of a game's equipment. If we take this brick out, they will enter the loser's bracket, while Avengers will be carried into the finals by us."
Only the top two teams from Groups A and B can directly advance to the finals. The 3rd to 5th place teams from each group will form 6 teams and continue to compete in another round to determine the top two teams to fill the final spots.
Therefore, XBG's position at this time is very awkward. Its original second-place ranking in terms of assets has been surpassed by Avengers, who failed to win two solo searches and retreated.
If they, who are in third place, fail to get the brick in the next round, or successfully evacuate and surpass the Avengers in assets, and the Brick is taken by the Creepers, they will have to play another round.
"The three little tigers were a bit tragic; they were all kicked to death."
Xu Jian smiled and shook his head. In the first game, they were ambushed and killed by Li Pu in the administration building of the dam. In the second game, they were caught off guard by Trident in the museum. In the third game, they ran into the Creepers again and were trapped in the vault and fiercely roasted by the Creepers.
"The asset difference between the fifth and sixth teams is not significant. If they don't want to be eliminated in sixth place, the best scenario is for them to ignore the bricks in the next round and focus on making money by running knives. Bingbing can stay in fifth place, or Xiao Laohu can surpass Bingbing."
"It's hard to say. Maybe if we go all in, we can at least keep our top four position with just one brick."
After discussing the situation of each team, they started to discuss the tactics for the next game.
What's certain is that in the fourth round, the Aerospace team will definitely focus on the brick. After all, they already have one brick, giving them an advantage. If they can take down another brick, they can directly kill the game and advance.
The general direction has been set, but there are some minor disagreements on the tactics.
Li Pu thought that with such a great advantage, it would be best to take the bricks first and then break through them if there was an opportunity. Yang Ge and Xu Jian, on the other hand, suggested surrounding the bricks and attacking the reinforcements.
We must first secure the points around the bricks. As for taking the bricks themselves, that's not urgent. We can wait and see if the other teams fight. If the fighting is intense, we can take the opportunity to grab the bricks. If the next game is Silent Hill, then we can follow Li Pu's idea.
Li Pu thought their words made sense and nodded in agreement.
At this point, they have a significant first-mover advantage and more assets than they can use. If they were to be a little more sneaky and underhanded and block the bridge a couple of times, preventing the other teams from escaping, they would end up in a situation where it's like Superman fighting cavemen.
They had certainly considered this approach, but they didn't intend to do it this way. After all, this was an offline competition, and if they really pulled off something like that, they might end up being cornered in the bathroom by the other teams for a real-life showdown.
"Let's get dressed, let's show them what happiness is like for the rich."
Unlike the others who were careful with their money, the three Wriggles didn't even look at the price when they got their gear. Red Armor Xiu didn't even stuff it in his crotch; he just put it directly into the ammunition rack, and his crotch was completely stuffed with ammunition.
In the later rounds, they were aiming for the bricks, not the food.
Chapter 234 Aerospace Brick Bureau
The Creepers are very generous with their equipment. They used their five sets in the second game. Xu Jian's armor was shattered once when they fought King Bingbing. Now they only have 2/3 durability left. Yang Ge still has 3/4, and Li Pu's is at full durability.
In terms of weaponry, Li Pu chose the combination of M14 and M700, which are interchangeable with ammunition. At this point, he hadn't used any of his gold bullets yet, and had three sets of gold pills and three sets of four bullets stuffed in his crotch.
Xu Jian's choice was a PKM plus an R93. Yang Ge gave him Golden Elixir for ammo. In the second round, Yang Ge and Xu Jian both used MP7s, and Yang Ge gave him half Golden Elixir and Xu Jian gave him half.
The remaining MP7 ammo is now with Brother Yang, who directly gave Xu Jian the opportunity to buy ammo once per round.
Yang's choice was an MP7 and an SR25, but the SR25 could only be used with level 4 ammo.
The operator selection is Li Pu - Wei Long, Xu Jian - Hong Lang, and Yang Ge - Lao Hei. The operator usage attempts saved in the first few rounds are for the aggressive attacks in the later rounds.
All three were armed to the teeth with long, medium, and long-range attack methods, and all the red-armored and red-headed cultivators were in their backpacks.
As soon as the time was up, the fourth game began.
"Alright, the fourth map, Space Base - Top Secret, is loading. The players have all entered the map. Let's take a look at the spawn points of each team."
"The first thing we see is our Avengers team. Born in the dormitory building, they didn't choose to loot the place on the spot, but instead headed straight for the central control bridge. In terms of equipment, only Gray Pixel in the team has a set of 5, but their guns are pretty good, a fully modified K437, and they all have five rounds of ammunition."
"The creepers who have the match point spawned at the West Gate below the Avengers. Fully armed, they didn't move but chose to lie down on the spot. Only the outrageous guy moved forward a little, looking at the location of the dormitory building's West Gate and the direction of the central control."
"Trident spawned in the central control area, and there were no signs of searching. After respawning, they went straight to the central control bridge. We can see that Trident went all in this round, with all members wearing five sets of equipment and using level 5 bullets. They were clearly aiming for the brick this round."
"The three little tigers were born, and the second member had already swiped his card and was ready to pass the point. Inside, there was Red Wolf with two smokes, which blocked the pipes and made it easy to pass the point. All three little tigers had four sets of equipment and no more than five bullets. Although they were already bankrupt, they seemed to be holding back and putting their hopes on the last two rounds."
"XBG's three players were born in Prison 2. They haven't made many moves yet, one keeping an eye on Prison 3 and the other on Prison 1, being very cautious. XBG has also gone all in. It seems that the third place position has given them a strong sense of crisis. Judging from their current equipment, they came in with the mindset of 'do or die'."
"Finally, it's our King of Pancakes. The three of them have been resurrected and are now on the suspension bridge. They've swiped their cards to open the bridge and are currently crossing the threshold. As for equipment, since they got a full set of five gear in the second round, they only have two sets of five gear available right now."
We could see they were bankrupt. Although they had acquired five sets of five-ammunition ammunition, their weapon modifications were rather haphazard. The most expensive gun in the team cost only 50, which was only a partial modification. The other two weren't even that. However, despite their financial constraints, they still managed to acquire a bolt-action sniper rifle.
The large screen is currently displaying an enlarged version of the map. At this moment, the three little tigers of the two members have passed the point and entered the blue room, while the Trident, having fired a few shots without success, has also followed into the core area.
The Pancake King has already swiped his card to cross the bridge and is now standing on it.
Li Pu saw that the dormitory was heading towards the central control point, and there was a lone person behind him. He took out his M700 to try his luck, but he only managed to fire one shot into the body and failed to stop the person.
The Avengers advanced into the central control area and took control of it, while XBG in Prison 2 had only just reached Prison 3.
"Come on, you can swipe your card to enter now."
The three crawlers swiped their cards and entered the core area immediately, but once inside, they hid in the water room next to the centrifuge. The three crawled silently, and unexpectedly, they matched the team name.
"It's so quiet, there's not a sound at all."
Yang shook his head. The scene of arms and legs flying everywhere, which he had imagined, did not occur. There was not a single gunshot.
“There are footsteps overhead. It could be that the central control point has passed through to the second floor connection, or it could be that the prisoner opened the card directly and ran through the rat path centrifugal force.”
Li Pu opened the map and glanced at it. At this moment, they were in the water room outside the centrifugal buoyancy. They could faintly hear footsteps on the second floor above them. They were the second to enter the core area, so the footsteps above them were probably from the central control or prison three.
The aerospace bricks were fixed in the center of the first floor of the garden. There were a total of four decryption points: one was in the groove connecting the two layers of buoyancy centrifugal force above their heads, one was in the black market, one was on the sand between the prison's central control area, and the last one was in the dormitory building.
Upon hearing the footsteps above them, the three of them stopped and listened carefully to the footsteps.
Since they've decided to play the mantis stalking the cicada, they'll only make a move after the brick is taken. If no one takes it, they'll look for another opportunity. At worst, no one will take it, and they can still advance as the first place winner with their one-brick advantage.
