Tao Sai squatted in the grass on the shore all night. It was summer and the fields were full of mosquitoes and reptiles. Fortunately, she was wearing work pants, so she was not bitten too badly.
During this period, she never closed her eyes and used night vision binoculars to observe the situation on the ship from time to time.
There are always people taking turns standing guard on the bridge, and there are people patrolling on the deck, with shifts changing every two hours to ensure that no one on guard gets tired and dozes off.
The current situation is that the enemy outnumbers us, and we are weak. The ship is heavily guarded and there is no room for leakage, leaving Tao Sai no chance to take advantage. If she tries to sneak into the cabin and kill "Wei Ai Qu Wu Yi" now, it will be tantamount to suicide.
She needs teammates.
Whether it's attacking with her, or providing cover for her, or even being a teammate who helps her with strategy.
However, the world channel hadn't had any comments from players other than "Wei Ai Qu Wu Yi" for a long time, and it was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.
At six o'clock in the morning, Tao Sai finally couldn't hold on any longer and dozed off against a big willow tree, but he still remained absolutely alert.
If she heard the "Hanjiang City" start its engine, she would wake up immediately.
At this moment, a paragraph of text popped up in the [Hunting] section in the corner of the field of vision.
[[Zhizhi] joined the channel.]
At the same time, the real-time number of people in the upper right corner finally changed to 2 for the first time.
Finally someone accepted the hidden mission, and she had a teammate.
Tao Sai thought excitedly and fell into a light sleep.
When he woke up again, it was four hours later. The sunlight shining through the leaves shone into Tao Sai's eyes.
The first thing she did when she woke up was to turn sideways and look at the river. The "Hanjiang City" was still anchored in the same place, and the people on board were also on alert. Everything was the same as before she fell asleep.
The sun is shining brightly today, and the light is excellent, so Tao Sai can see farther.
She found that beyond the low hills on the left bank, there was a vast open terrain ahead.
She almost subconsciously opened the map on her phone to confirm that they were now less than five kilometers away from the confluence of the Yangtze River and the Wolong River, and the straight-line distance was less than two kilometers. The open terrain was naturally a section of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the plains on both sides of the river.
Tao Sai suddenly understood why the "Hanjiang City" chose to anchor here. They were lying in ambush.
The Yangtze River Basin is vast, and more than half of the players in the inland areas should be distributed in this area. If they want to drive a refugee ship to escape to the safest sea, whether they set out directly from the Yangtze River or from its tributaries, this section is almost a must-go.
The low hills and trees on the convex bank of the Wolong River are at just the right height to provide cover, and can provide solid shelter for the huge fourth-level shelter ship.
Thinking of this, Tao Sai quickly looked at the bow of the ship, which she had previously ignored. Sure enough, the muzzle of the rocket launcher was aimed at the open area behind the convex hill.
Probably as long as a shelter ship appears in their field of vision and range, □□ will spare no effort to launch an attack, and no third-level shelter ship will be able to escape under such firepower.
That section of the river became extremely dangerous. Perhaps a refugee ship would appear in the next second and fall into the trap of the "Hanjiang City", causing the ship to be destroyed and people to die.
Tao Sai couldn't help but frown. The situation was urgent and measures had to be taken as soon as possible.
She suddenly remembered something and immediately enlarged the page in the corner of her vision. In the [Hunting] section, four more people joined one after another, and the channel now showed a real-time number of 5 people.
The players in this channel have already started chatting, and Tao Sai slid to the top and started reading.
[[Tang Sixi] joined the channel.]
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Zhizhi, it seems there is someone else here!
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: I saw it, it seems like he posted it on the world channel before.
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Yes, it’s her! I remember her ID
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: @(Cx330), do you want to join us?
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Why doesn't she speak?
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: Maybe he hasn't woken up yet. It's not even seven in the morning yet.
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Oh, let's wait a little longer.
【[Mr. Bucai Youshan] has joined the channel. 】
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: I believe that you are all the righteous defenders who punish Gong Xingtian and enforce justice. I am honored to be among you!
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Could you please be more serious?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]:? I'm super serious
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]:......
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: ...
[[三尺微命] joined the channel. ]
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Welcome newcomers! Newcomers share photos, measurements, and call me husband
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: It’s already this time, and you still have the mind to joke?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Well, I just want to create a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, give each other energy, and help us defeat the BOSS easily.
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: @(Three Feet of Life), we can just ignore him, do you have any ideas?
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: We have some ideas but they are not mature yet. After all, the enemy is too strong. If we make a small mistake, we will be killed.
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: Yes, I don’t even dare to speak in the world, for fear that he will find me based on some clues.
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: Honestly, this is the first time in my life that I've felt so timid. I'm so timid.
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Zhizhi, I'm even more of a coward than you. The last few times someone reported coordinates a little closer to me on the world channel, I trembled with fear and ran desperately in the opposite direction with my family.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Even though you were extremely scared, for the sake of justice and the safety of other players, you still chose to accept the mission and stand up. Well done!
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Do you think I want to pay attention to you? (rolling eyes.gif)
[Three-foot Micro Life (Lv3)]: Let me share some intel I have. I reached level 3 early on and witnessed nearly every one of his deceptions. From what I've observed, he seems to possess teleportation-type abilities.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: What? ? ? Is this true?
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: I'm stupid.
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: I remember it clearly. He first killed a player who had revealed their coordinates in Pengzhou Bay, and then, just over two hours later, killed another player in Qujiang. I carefully measured the map, and the straight-line distance between the two points is 500 kilometers. If it were by water, it would be a full 1,300 kilometers. What kind of ship could reach speeds of over a thousand kilometers per hour? If it weren't spatial displacement, I can't find a more reasonable explanation.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: This is too fucking perverted, damn!
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Let’s not even talk about whether we can defeat him or not. Even if we surround him with more people, he can just escape with a space teleport. What’s the point of hunting him down?
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Why are you so excited? Aren’t you quite optimistic?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Is this the time to joke? Can you please understand the situation?
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: I'll give you a head
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: Anyway, let's reunite first. He hasn't activated his spatial displacement skill yet, so we'd better move closer to the target point and work together to find a solution.
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: I agree. We need to work together first.
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Go! go! go!
The chat history ended here. Tao Sai did not rush to speak in the channel. He kept his composure and continued to squat, but he felt more confident.
Although I didn't get enough rest, my brain was extremely active.
She deduced over and over in her mind how to cooperate with her teammates to kill "Wei Ai Qu Wu Yi" at the lowest cost.
Three hours later, news started popping up on the [Hunting] board again.
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: I'm almost at Wolong River, about an hour away, how about you guys?
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Zhizhi and I are together, so we should be here for more than two hours.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: What the hell? I'm the only one who had to rush all the way from the Three Gorges? I'm afraid I won't be able to make it before dark. I'm so impressed.
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: I have just been studying the map near the Wolong River. When I am about to reach the intersection of the two rivers, I think I will have to abandon the boat first. After all, the size of the refuge boat is too easy to be exposed.
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: That makes sense. But without the attack systems on the refuge ship, can our firepower keep up?
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: This is what I am most worried about. The armor of the fourth-level shelter ship must be very thick, and ordinary guns may not be able to hurt its fur. My idea is to lure it out. The specific details can be discussed after we meet up.
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: I think there's a chance if we can lure him out! To be honest, I spent a lot of money on a sniper rifle, which will come in handy. My fixed-point sniping is super accurate!
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: She is from the provincial shooting team and won the silver medal in the National Games.
Tao Sai's frown relaxed a little. Having a long-range sharpshooter in the team was undoubtedly great news.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Hey hey hey!!!
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Damn it, please watch the world channel!
Upon hearing this, Tao Sai quickly switched to the world channel.
[Bu Jue Yu Er (Lv3)]: A rookie looking for a team, looking for a big boss to lead me
Let’s go back to the [Hunting] channel to discuss.
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: Someone go stop him!
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: It's over, Qu Wuyi has set his sights on him
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: The most important thing is that Qu Wuyi might be teleported hundreds of kilometers away, making it difficult to hunt him down.
Sure enough, there was new news on the world channel immediately.
[Only Love Song Wuyi (Lv4)]: I can do it!
[Only Love Song Without Memory (Lv4)]: Tell me your location, I will come to you right away∩_∩
The moment the two lines of words appeared, the extremely dangerous player's words made everyone's heart stop, and they sent messages in an extremely urgent attempt to stop it.
[Three Feet of Life (Lv3)]: @(Unending Ears) Don't mention the location, he's a murderer.
[Zhizhi (Lv3)]: @(Bujue Yuer), don’t reveal your coordinates!
[Tang Sixi (Lv3)]: Exposing your coordinates will lead to death!
[Bu Jue Yu Er (Lv3)]: Okay, come find me. I'm at the fishing boat dock in Donghai City, berth A273.
Tao Sai stared at the last few words in horror, his pupils dilated infinitely.
