Chapter 55 My throat is almost gone (Please add to your favorites and vote for this book)
Upon hearing the commotion, Qiao Mei quickly dismounted from the Star Goddess Mecha and then summoned her Flying Ape Mecha.
As soon as I sat down in the mech, I realized that the noise was coming from a direction that was quite unusual.
Not far away, a scissor-type mech of A+ grade was desperately dragging a mech with one arm missing as it fled. The mech's head kept turning back, as if there were still pursuers behind it.
Seeing this, Qiao Mei was about to tell Xingxing to find a place to hide when she was interrupted by a woman's cry for help from the other side.
"Don't go! Save me! If you save me, you can have half of my B-grade equipment!"
Although the outer poison circle is dangerous, it is actually more dangerous here than the safe zone.
The capable players have already entered the safe zone. To continue to survive in the safe zone is several times more difficult than outside.
Qiao Mei considered her current situation—having no equipment whatsoever, just like Xingxing—and glanced at the A+ grade scissor-hand armor, which was only 30% damaged. In the end, she agreed to the girl's request for help.
She released the wings of the Flying Ape Mech, carrying the Star Goddess Mech in one hand and the Scissors Mech in the other, and headed deep into the Sunset Valley. The entire mech disappeared into the clouds and mist. Only after confirming that she could no longer be seen did she maintain this altitude and wait for the pursuers to retreat.
At the same time, they established contact with the owner of the scissor-shaped handgun and inquired about her information.
"My name is Camellia, and my strength is at the second level of Sacred Beast Apprentice. There were two powerful Sacred Beast Masters at the second level who were helping me, but they were unlucky and were defeated by other opponents before they could even enter the safe zone. I escaped because I was relatively weak and was protected by them and kept far away from them."
When Camellia asked for help earlier, her voice was clearly very deep and hoarse.
But now, whether it's because there's no danger anymore or something else, Qiao Mei feels like someone is pinching her nose when she hears Shan Cha's voice, and the words she says sound a bit cloying and uncomfortable.
Just as she was wondering what that sound was, Xingxing spoke up to answer her question.
He raised the head of the goddess mecha and looked at the scissor-shaped mecha that looked like a gothic dark loli. He asked her, "Is your voice just like this, or did you deliberately tuck it in? If you tucked it in, there's no need for that. We're running for our lives right now, not chatting online. There's no need for that."
Qiao Mei was stunned for a moment after hearing Xingxing's blunt truth, and then she began to feel embarrassed for Shancha.
However, Camellia seemed to have a particularly strong ability to adapt. After remaining silent for a while, she chuckled dryly and said that she definitely did not pinch anything; this was her natural voice.
As Shu Qingqing listened to Shancha's answer outside the live stream, she almost spat out the water she had just drunk.
She swallowed the water with difficulty, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and then began her usual sharp tongue.
"Still not ready? Her voice is practically gone! Judging from that scream she gave for help earlier, she must smoke and drink a lot in private, otherwise her voice wouldn't be so hoarse..."
The viewers in the live stream saw the whole thing, and some who wanted to speak up for Camellia didn't know how to start.
Just as Qiao Mei and her two companions returned to the valley on the live stream screen, a viewer dropped a bombshell, finally ending the discussion about whether or not the camellia was actually caught in a trap.
[Wait a minute, why does that Camellia-piloted scissor-shaped mech look so familiar? I think I saw it once before I came from the livestream of the other favorite to win the championship. Since it's an A+ grade mech, I paid special attention to it.]
The viewers in the live stream, including Shu Qingqing, sensed something juicy in the message and asked the viewer what was going on.
Shu Qingqing popped an orange-flavored lollipop into her mouth and asked half-jokingly, "It can't be that she, a second-star Saint Beast Apprentice, tricked those two second-star Saint Beast Envoys, right?"
Qiao Mei had guessed this when she saw that the number of equipment that Camellia had taken out was large, and some of them were even A-level.
The rules of the competition are that when a player dies, they leave behind a box containing the supplies they had previously acquired.
If what Camellia said is true, that she escaped by sheer luck and really had a good relationship with those two powerful two-star Beast Masters, then she shouldn't have gone to lick the boxes they left behind after their deaths.
Unless, from the beginning, Camellia never considered those two big shots as teammates, but rather as tools that she could discard at any time.
So when she was installing the plasma cannon on the Flying Ape Mech, she was careful and secretly contacted Xingxing using her computer bracelet to reveal her guess.
At this point, a viewer in the live stream also shared what he had seen in another live stream.
[The gist of it is that the two people with her ran into the sniper god, a favorite to win the championship. The sniper god's dual-pistol sniper armor can't only target two people at a time. At that time, the three of them were together, and if they wanted to escape the sniper god's sniping range, two of them had to be killed. This Camellia directly attacked those two teammates, buying herself a chance to escape, and didn't forget to use her scissor-hands to snatch the resources they left behind.]
[Speechless, is this for real? Could it be that her right arm, which was on the scissor-wielding mech, was severed by the sniper's mech?]
[Yes, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to successfully leave with the supplies, after all, the mecha she piloted was a top-tier A+ class mecha.]
