The Great Thief

Now he had to face an even more powerful enemy. The submachine gun that his brother had was definitely with his opponent now. What’s more, his opponent had an accomplice, but he was just one person.

Lu Li did a loop around the room. He basically knew where his opponent was positioned – he was actually crudely lying down in the bathroom. If Lu Li had a grenade at this time, he wouldn’t need to enter the room at all and he could still kill his opponent. It was a shame that after searching those few rooms he hadn’t picked up any grenades. The corpse’s loot box had only contained a smoke grenade.

Lu Li broke into the room, all the while aiming his gun at the bathroom.

He took out the smoke grenade and threw it into the bathroom, which would force the person inside to rush out. Lu Li was very nervous – would the person inside be able to tell the difference between a grenade and a smoke grenade?

What would the result be afterwards?

With a gun, he shot the player down.

Lu Li quickly picked up his things.

Actually, there wasn’t much. The only thing valuable thing was a silencer for a sniper rifle. He had already smashed up his armor himself, which was all level 1. There was still a helmet though, which Water Fairy picked up and wore.

Out of the other things that they found, the best was the ten or so bullets for the submachine gun.

After collecting all this military equipment, they both started up the car and sped away. If they waited, people would definitely come. Getting tangled up with them would be meaningless.

“We’ve finished searching here. There’s nothing much,” Unforgettable Maple said helplessly on his side.

They had been forced to flee by those at the airport and looked around in a few small places but didn’t find anything. Innocent Child had a UMP9 and a sprayer, while Unforgettable Maple had an AK and an UZI.

“If you knew what guns we were holding, then I don’t think you’d feel poor,” Lu Li said as he drove to the bridge.

He had on him a VSS and a sprayer, while Water Fairy had an M16 and another sprayer. Both had level 1 bulletproof vests and helmets.

“We don’t even have a scope; how are we meant to block up the bridge?” Unforgettable Maple was dumbfounded.

“How about we go somewhere else to look for one.”

At this time, all four were on the bridge. They didn’t dare go to the ruins at the middle of the bridge. They could only lie around the thick grass.

“Snowy and I killed a couple people, so I think there are probably another couple of people around here searching. I don’t think we would be able to find much else. Why don’t we just calmly lie around here like this? The people over at the airport will definitely come here,” Lu Li said, rejecting Innocent Child’s suggestion.

Searching in other places had risks too. It would be even worse if they happen to encounter others and die as a result, because they didn’t have any guns.

“Ok, someone’s coming. Can you hear it? There’s a car,” Unforgettable Maple whispered in a hushed voice, interrupting everyone.

Lu Li listened carefully, and he did indeed hear the sound of a car. It was a little distant, but it was growing clear and clearer. This meant that they were driving in their direction.

“Stay still, stay still. Our guns aren’t any good, so we’ll wait until the car is nearer before we attack,” Innocent Child said with great excitement. This kind of feeling of hiding in ambush was really quite exhilarating. This was another reason he liked playing with Unforgettable Maple. Just because his shooting was good didn’t mean that he didn’t enjoy ambushing.

This Jeep was actually being rather cautious.

They were using the cover from the scrap cars on the bridge to moved forward. When they passed the last scrap car and they continued to not hear any gunfire, they all let out a breath of relief. Farming this safety zone was not as good as the airport. They hadn’t gotten into a firefight with the people at the airport; they just had a quick look around then quickly left.

Looking at it now, this choice was without a doubt correct. At least now, there was no one blocking the bridge.

“Do we stay to block a wave?” the driver, Cloudy Leaf, asked.

This group was all from the Gale Legion, and were the guild’s Four Swordsmen. There was Cloudy Leaf, Wendelian, Angry City Dweller and Flowing Leaf. Although their driving skills couldn’t be compared with Moonlight’s, their shooting skills were not as good as Innocent Child, and they weren’t as wretched as Unforgettable Maple, that group of four people were all of the same club. Wendelian was a remarkable commander and he had quite the reputation in Survival and Escape.

Despite being prohibited, they were well-coordinated when fighting together.

“Nah, there aren’t that many newbies in this round. Let’s avoid getting trapped at both the front and back,” Wendelian said.

“Then let’s leave. We’ll rush straight towards the safety zone. Boss, you leave a note…a note….for Foggy Grass,” Cloudy Leaf said, swallowing the end of his sentence.

Suddenly, a few people leapt on the grass next to the road and opened fire on their car.

Two people, one after the other, were hit and fell onto the car. In the end, the car was blown up.

No one survived; things just happened too quickly.

The Jeep’s main weakness was that it was simply too slow.

To put it another way, at such a close distance, how could you expect Gale Legion’s Four Swordsmen to react? Even if they jumped from the vehicle, they would die all the same.

Behind the ruins of the car, four boxes suddenly appeared before their eyes.

“Restock time!” Unforgettable Maple laughed loudly.

Lu Li had an M16 in his hand, so he was looking mainly for accessories like an extended magazine, suppressors for the end of the gun or a reflector sight. The 98K sniper he was looking for didn’t show up, but there was an SKS which was given to Innocent Child.

After all, these were players who had just returned from the airport.

Apart from this, Lu Li found some level 2 armor as well as a half-HP helmet.

His secondary gun was still the same VSS as before. Since he didn’t have a higher magnification scope, this gun would give him a clear and vaster field of vision.

They shared the medical equipment between the four of them. Everyone received at least a first aid kit and one or two energy drinks.

The Four Swordsmen were evidently not the ultimate victors at the airport. They perhaps had only searched a small area, and after finding some guns, saw that the fighting at the airport was too chaotic. They were probably also afraid that someone would be blocking the bridge, so they decided to come over earlier.

“I just went to go see Elevenless’ livestream. They went to M City. They’re searching for things really enthusiastically,” Unforgettable Maple reported, gnashing his teeth in anger. Although they won last round, he had died pitifully, so it was a rather passive victory. The chief culprit, Elevenless, could hardly absolve himself from blame.

“Er, you went and had a look behind their back. That’s not too good,” Lu Li said, with a brief look of awkward helplessness on his face.

They had turned off the livestream, afraid that others would understand their own dynamics from watching it. They had never thought that Unforgettable Maple would shamelessly run over to Elevenless’ livestream to peek.

“They can do it, so why can’t we? And also…” Unforgetful Maple began, then continued with an enticing tone, “They’re really rich, with two 98Ks, as well as level 3 helmets and armor. Almost all of them have a suppressor for their rifles…”

“What are we still hesitating for? Damn them.”

As soon as Innocent Child heard they had 98Ks, he abandoned his plans to take the high road.

“Since you’re so insistent, I don’t have much to say. We’ll drive to M City then,” Lu Li said in an insincere tone. It wasn’t that he didn’t have a sense of shame, but his teammates’ pressure forced him to reluctantly agree.

“Yes, let’s go to M City. It’ll be revenge for Sister Maple,” Water Fairy said, providing ample reason.
