This is strange, Su Lin just confirmed that there were no other teams nearby.
But in that instant, the map showed that a new team had appeared nearby!
This could not possibly be a newly arrived team; the arrival time at the start of the game is synchronized for all players.
The only possibility is that a team has mastered a teleportation-like ability!
Upon hearing Sulin's command, the attendants immediately went on alert. The elves silently cast spells, quickly changing their formation to surround Sulin at the core.
The team landed in a relatively spacious semi-circular pit deep underground, with three tunnel entrances around it. Shortly after Su Lin finished speaking, Jia Zhengyi said softly, "I also found it. It's in the tunnel to my left, just within a kilometer's radius."
"There were 12 people, 10 men and 2 women. They were not survivors I had seen before; they were from other districts."
Jia Zhengyi's voice echoed clearly in the minds of the entire team. Ellie had activated her telepathic communication ability to ensure that the team could maintain efficient information exchange even in silence.
"The number is wrong; they have entourage."
Xiao Linlin reminded Su Lin, who nodded silently and asked Jia Zhengyi, "How strong are they? How much of a threat do they pose?"
"Not so great. I feel like they're on the same level as me, they didn't make me feel dangerous."
Jia Zhengyi shrugged. From a biological perspective, these people did not pose a threat to him, but he could not rule out the possibility that they possessed some special external force.
After all, once something is stuffed into a backpack, Jia Zhengyi has no way to bypass the protection mechanism to investigate it.
"Let's not be too careless and set up an ambush first."
Su Lin pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, signaling Lyanna to lead a group of elves to hide, while the rest of them remained where they were and waited.
He wanted to see what these guys were really after.
An alliance?
Or an assassination?
But regardless of the reason, there is no doubt that these people are certain that Su Lin's team is here.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have approached so directly and quickly, almost without any concealment.
Su Lin observed the map, watching the unfamiliar team closing in, when at that moment, Xiao Linlin suddenly pressed a button on his helmet.
She activated the information radar capability within the helmet, which could capture sound from a distance and provide a blurry image.
Immediately afterwards, several blurry figures appeared in the helmet's field of vision, overlapping with the location of the unfamiliar team, and a series of indistinct voices also sounded in the helmet's earpiece.
"According to the map, they don't seem to have moved... It must be too dark here, so they don't dare to make any rash moves."
"Hehe, this is another fat sheep. Let's hurry up and take down this team. Then, while Dalin still has the energy, let's see if we can take down another team."
"Captain, I have a feeling that I'm not at ease. Do you think there might be something fishy going on with the team ahead of us?"
"You're a combat operative, what are you pretending to be? What kind of shady business could you possibly have? You think you're more talented than Old Wang?"
"Old Wang's talent clearly indicates that the opposing team is a lone wolf squad. No matter how strong he is, he can't be stronger than our full squad, especially since we have so many minions with us..."
"The captain is right. In the current escape situation, there may be quite a few survivors with followers, but their numbers are definitely not as exaggerated as ours."
"The lone wolf has no map, may not have any followers, and most likely doesn't have the information talent... We seem to have a sure win, who would have thought we'd be ambushed at the start? Besides, we still have Plan B."
"Stop arguing and cheer up! I'm not afraid of Lone Wolf being strong, I'm just afraid of Lone Wolf being too poor."
The helmet has extremely strong reconnaissance capabilities, making up for some of Jia Zhengyi's information deficiencies.
Through the collection of enemy information, Su Lin basically confirmed that this team was malicious and that they were accustomed to using this method.
Use your talent to scout nearby "weak" teams, then use your talent "teleport" to get close, and use your numerical and combat advantages to achieve an "opening ambush," emphasizing surprise.
Even the stronger escape teams, if they haven't learned from their mistakes, will most likely fall into the trap.
Even with strong vigilance, one may not be able to avoid being eaten, since teams that frequently eat people are generally quite powerful and have excellent teamwork.
"That's a good approach."
Su Lin pondered this in his heart and praised it highly.
He wasn't angry or resentful; he simply thought the method of cannibalism was ingenious, seemingly simple but often surprisingly effective.
Once you succeed once or twice and achieve initial accumulation, it's easy to snowball and make the team stronger and stronger.
"Unfortunately, they ran into us."
Hearing Su Lin's thoughts, Xiao Linlin said with a grin, "I'm really looking forward to it. I wonder what their expressions will be when they see our team later."
Su Lin smiled silently and did not speak.
The darkness shrouded his expression and concealed most of the elves behind him, revealing only their outlines.
The opposing team was in a hurry and didn't keep Su Lin waiting for long. Soon, a man poked his head out of the tunnel and cautiously looked in Su Lin's direction.
Because it was too dark here, and he dared not focus the light to alert the enemy, he could only see Su Lin standing alone in the darkness from afar with the naked eye, and could not see anything else unusual.
"He is indeed a lone wolf, no problem. He's standing still, most likely still processing the information from the game."
"Let's go, let's take him down!"
The captain's voice was filled with excitement as he made a decisive decision.
Following his order, more than ten people stopped hiding and rushed out of the tunnel, rushing towards Su Lin from multiple angles and directions, forming an encirclement.
