Chapter 58 NPCs Kill All Players (20)

"Holy crap?"

Even Dao Ge himself was stunned.

Just then, the security guard, who should have been slow to move, suddenly appeared in front of him. His figure flashed so suddenly in the camera that Brother Dao didn't even have time to react before a bloody mark appeared on his neck.

Fresh blood gushed out.

He stared wide-eyed, clutched his neck, and backed away, unable to make a sound.

Seeing their health bar rapidly decreasing, their teammates reacted and fired over a dozen shots at the security guard.

But the security guard moved too quickly; of the dozen or so shots fired, only two or three bullets actually hit him.

Two or three should be enough.

After all, the security guard in the first level only has 800 health points. With a regular level 2 gun, one shot can deal 500 damage, so two or three shots are enough.

However, just as these people were about to go forward to pick up the looted equipment, they suddenly noticed that the security guard, who had been shot three times, was still standing firmly in place. His bloodshot, bulging eyes slowly rolled around, and suddenly, he smiled through his torn lips.

"You hit me, now it's my turn."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other three people, still in shock, felt a chill run down their spines.

He turned around cautiously, but his gaze froze the moment he saw what was behind him.

Three security guards appeared silently and stealthily behind the three team members. Before the three men could even utter a sound, their heads were already on the ground.

When a player dies, they can see a replay of their death. In the live stream, thousands of players watched this scene. Even though they were far away and separated by a screen, they still felt a chill down their spine, especially the back of their neck.

Holy crap, this is the first level?!

[Is this guy a three-year-old?! You dog of a boss, are you even human? The first monster in the first level is this awesome?!]

What just happened? Is this really not the Flash appearing in our feed?

"Mom, I want to go home, it's too scary here!"

[This is interesting! The first level is already so exciting. Anyone want to team up? Let's go!]

[Waaaaah, this is my first day playing this game! I was just about to team up to tackle the tutorial level when the monsters leveled up! What are we newbies supposed to do?!]

[Newbie sister, don't be afraid, just call out "brother," and the pro will carry you!]

The tragic fate of the four members of the Drought Demon Squad was clearly broadcast live; each of them was beheaded with a single blow. Although it was bloody, it did not stop more people from rushing into the first level.

After all, the Drought Demon Squad's level is not high. There are hundreds of thousands of teams in the game, and the team level is divided from one to one hundred according to the team points. The Drought Demon Squad has only just reached level thirty-one.

A small team, whose performance was below average, died at the first level. Although it was novel, it didn't have much of a deterrent effect.

There are plenty of teams full of highly skilled players.

Take, for example, the team that just entered the game. Their name is "Good Fortune and Prosperity." They are also a four-person team, an advanced team of level 84, and have already reached the fourth map. They are among the best in so many team competitions.

Following the complete annihilation of the Drought Demon Squad, the Auspicious and Prosperous Squad followed closely behind.

The game refreshed again, and the four followed the route of the previous team into the asylum.

The live stream continues.

The only difference is that the main characters have changed.

After installing the camera, the captain of the Lucky and Auspicious Squad stood at the entrance of the mental hospital and took a look from afar.

"Let's discuss tactics first. The monster 'Security Guard' has obviously been fully upgraded, which is reflected in its faster speed and larger health bar."

We don't know exactly how many health bars they have yet, but since they are the monsters in the first level, their health bars definitely won't exceed four thousand. So I've decided that the vice-captain will immediately lock onto the locations of the four monsters once he enters the game.

The third brother and I will take care of the first security guard at the entrance. Fourth brother, you are responsible for observing the surrounding situation. Remember, you must be quick.

Equip yourself with a level 7 weapon and aim for a one-hit kill; don't waste too much time on the early stages.

As the lowest-level monster in the entire game, the fact that the team was able to formulate such a comprehensive plan before the game started is already a highlight of 'Security Guard's' life.

With the plan finalized, the vice-captain changed into his weapon and crept along the wall into the first floor. He was skilled at concealment, agile, and familiar with the first level of the scene, so he quickly figured out the positions of the four security guards and immediately reported them to his teammates outside via walkie-talkie.

"There are four security guards: one at the entrance, one in the southeast corner, and two around the pharmacy. Let's deal with the first one first."

With the plan in place, the captain kicked the door open and entered, attracting the attention of the security guard at the door. Knowing in advance that he was quick, the captain had already switched to a shotgun. After aiming, he fired a shot at the guard's head without hesitation.

"Bang--!"

The moment the gun fired, iron pellets flew everywhere. As a level seven weapon, one shot could cause three thousand damage. The captain thought that this would be enough to deal with the security guard.

As the smoke cleared, the captain was about to put his gun away when he suddenly heard a "whoosh" sound. Startled, he immediately realized something was wrong and fired several more shots at the source of the sound.

The third brother followed closely behind, switching to advanced weapons and firing.

Under the fierce attack, even the four security guards, no matter how fast they were, couldn't dodge it. In addition, their marksmanship was extremely accurate and their reactions were extremely quick. Seeing that the few monsters were powerless to resist, the captain immediately gave the order.

"Switch to bombs and blow it up!"

Stop talking nonsense. No matter how fast you are, can you outrun his firepower?

No sooner had he finished speaking than the bomb in his hand was about to be thrown when the security guards in front of him suddenly turned around and ran away. Before they could react, the four men had already disappeared.

team leader:"……"

And so, the precious level 8 explosives ultimately went to waste.

"Damn, I'm already covered in bruises in the first round!"

The third team member clutched the wound on his arm, watching his health bar steadily drop.

He had been extra careful, but he still got stabbed in the chaos. Now the wound was bleeding profusely, and after it was bandaged, his health bar only had a little over 6,000 left.

Everyone looked at the team leader.

Should we continue forward?

Something's not right with the first level.

They managed to get a mere four security guards to frantically fire guns and throw bombs, but they didn't manage to kill a single one.

The captain nodded.

"Since we're already here, let's go in and take a look. We've already defeated the BOSS of the fourth map, so why are we afraid of these few monsters in the first level? Don't worry, listen to my command, and I guarantee that none of them will escape today."

[Captain, don't be a coward! I've given you a tip!]

Is the first level so difficult that it's designed to stop all new players from even reaching the beginner's village?

I think this is quite interesting. It's good that it's difficult; it weeds out a bunch of weak players and improves the overall quality of our player base.

Yes, some players are really bad these days; it's frustrating to encounter them.
