Chapter 45: On the Wasteland (5) Encirclement



A group of players were robbed by the natives!

If you say this, you'll probably laugh out loud.

——But in fact, this is what happened.

"Outrageous! It's absolutely outrageous! How dare these people be so aggressive!"

Suddenly, a low shout came from the side. Qianyue subconsciously glanced back, then moved to the side to create some distance and quickened her pace.

However, the person who spoke did not notice Qianyue's actions, and continued to complain to his teammates who had just reunited, thinking that he had lowered his voice:

"You didn't see it, that group of people just appeared out of nowhere like groundhogs, and they just came up and started robbing us!"

Chizuki, who has excellent hearing: Groundhog...

In fact, it didn't appear suddenly, but many players were careless and didn't notice it.

The few who discovered it early just slipped away like she did.

Player B was stunned for a moment and was about to say that it was impossible. How could the natives possibly beat the player?

Then he heard Player A say with lingering fear, "Don't disbelieve me. Someone tried to resist, but was shot in the head. The rest of us were completely terrified. In the end, we had to throw items around to escape."

The reason why players think they are special is actually just because they rely on their identity as "players".

In other words, when players know that they will not really die no matter what they do, they will naturally feel that they are superior to the natives in the game.

What's more, players can also obtain many props that the natives cannot have through things like blueprints, which gives them an advantage over the natives in every way.

But in reality, most players are just ordinary people without their gadgets. Perhaps outside of the game, they've been living in a steel jungle, never even killing a chicken.

On the contrary, the indigenous people who have experienced the war are as fierce as bandits. They will do anything to survive.

The players have just entered the dungeon, and even if they have some incredible items, they haven't made them yet. If they suddenly face off against such a person, it is still unknown who will win!

Qianyue thought: No, for the sake of a peaceful life in the next few days, she must settle down as soon as possible.

Player B: "We have to find a place to hide as soon as possible."

Qianyue: Hmm?

When Qianyue heard this suddenly, she thought she had accidentally let the cat out of the bag and subconsciously looked up and glanced in the direction of the two people.

At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly flashed in her sight.

Probably because it didn't expect Qianyue to suddenly look up, the black shadow quickly retreated into the corner, but it did not escape Qianyue's eyes.

Qianyue was startled, but reacted very quickly. She looked away calmly, as if she hadn't noticed anything.

But when she turned her head, her heart sank instantly.

In a corner where no one noticed, Qianyue narrowed her eyes slightly.

——Something happened.

Qianyue looked around calmly.

The place where she was now was a bit like a residential area. Although it was also in ruins, the building density was much greater than that near the buildings that had been bombed intensively before. There were many walls of houses on both sides of the street that had been bombed but had not collapsed yet.

Nearly ten minutes had passed since the explosion, and the streets were still empty, without even a trace of an animal.

Qianyue originally thought that all the residents here had evacuated, but she didn't expect that there were still people hiding here.

Avoiding a crowd and ambushing others are two different things. The man who just hid his head was sneaky and was obviously waiting for them.

——They were targeted by the indigenous people again.

Qianyue clicked her tongue's tongue against the roof of her mouth, feeling a little annoyed.

She had originally thought the riots would be nothing more than the ones she encountered in the first instance, a disorganized mess. However, she hadn't expected the inhabitants she encountered this time to be so aggressive, targeting the players right from the start.

If Qianyue hadn't known that in the eyes of the natives, there was no difference between the players and themselves, she would have almost thought that this was a game of confrontation between camps.

If Qianyue guessed correctly, she would have been surrounded by now.

If she turned around and ran away now, she might alert the enemy. Then she would cause a lot of trouble which would not be worth the loss.

Qianyue pretended to lower her head in thought, but in her mind she was quickly planning an escape route.

The other two players didn't seem to notice how conspicuous they were, and continued chatting as they walked into the residential area.

Qianyue heard them whispering about finding a dilapidated house to take shelter. If they were lucky, they might even be able to find a basement to hide in. They didn't know when the next round of bombing would come, so they had to prepare as soon as possible.

Qianyue: “…”

She didn't know whether these two people could hide in the basement, but it was very likely that they would face a room full of people after opening the basement.

It was too late to remind these two idiots now. Qianyue consciously slowed down her pace, as if she was hesitating about where to go. She walked and stopped, gradually widening the distance between them.

She lowered her head as if nothing had happened and pretended to be thinking, but her peripheral vision was always paying attention to the movements around her.

As expected, besides the shadow she had initially captured, there were also unusual movements in several other locations. As the men drew closer, they seemed to be getting more and more impatient.

But at this moment, the two people walking in front suddenly stopped.

"Wait, something seems wrong."

After all, they were players who made it to the fourth dungeon. The two of them seemed to gradually notice the unusual feeling in the air.

It’s a pity that the two of them looked for a long time but didn’t find anything unusual.

The man who first witnessed the robbery in the explosion pit lowered his voice and said, "Be careful, don't let anyone rob us too."

teammate:"……"

Although this is true, I always feel like I'm going to be slapped in the face as soon as I say this.

"I drew the architectural blueprints. Let's find a place to hide."

The two couldn't figure out the reason for a while, so they could only subconsciously increase their vigilance and speed up their movement towards the residential area.

They were so focused on finding a shelter and settling down that they looked around cautiously, even casting suspicious glances at Qianyue, unaware that they were falling into a trap step by step.

Twenty meters.

Ten meters——

Now is the time!

A group of people suddenly jumped out from all corners with murderous intent to block them. The other two players were frightened, but Qianyue turned around and ran away without thinking!

Robber:? ! !

Originally, there were people ambushing behind Qianyue, but her reaction was too quick. The two men had just rushed halfway and had no time to surround her when Qianyue rushed up and knocked the people away, which stunned the people who had originally come to surround them!

"Fuck!" The person who was hit had never expected this to happen. He was knocked out without any preparation and fell back several meters. Finally, he fell on his buttocks on the ground, grimacing in pain!

The other person was stunned. He looked at Qianyue and then at his companion on the ground, and was a little confused about the situation.

The people from other directions were immediately furious and started cursing, "What are you just standing there for? Go chase her! These people are obviously good guys, don't let her get away!"

The two people on the periphery woke up as if from a dream and hurriedly chased after Qianyue.

The two players on the other side also took this opportunity to break out separately. The abducted natives rushed to catch them, resulting in another round of chaos.

Things change over time, and no one can escape the mad rush.

According to the escape route Qianyue had planned before, she originally thought that those people would give up after running out of the residential area - but she didn't expect that although those two gave up, a few new ones suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the journey!

After the war broke out, supplies were scarce, and in order to survive, such scenes were common. Chases were staged almost every day.

Probably because they saw others chasing, these people subconsciously concluded that Qianyue must have something on her, so they followed without thinking!

——And then more and more!

Qianyue originally rushed forward without looking back, thinking that with her speed of chasing dinosaurs, it would not take long for her to get rid of the group of people.

The more she rushed forward, the more she felt something was wrong. She even caught a glimpse of a player whose face suddenly changed drastically and who ran away after seeing her.

"Why do I feel like the noise behind me is getting louder?"

Qianyue glanced back inadvertently and was almost tripped by the scene behind her!

There were actually more than twenty people chasing her!

There were men and women, young and old, and even a little kid of seven or eight years old was running behind, gasping for breath.

Some of them wanted to rob props and supplies, while others were starving and desperate, hanging on by their last breath.

"I won't hurt you! Please give me something to eat! Just a little bit..."

"Don't run away if you dare! Hand over everything in your backpack!"

"Water, water, I want to drink water—"

Qianyue: "Grass."

Qianyue swore that she could even feel the green light in the eyes of those people looking at her!

The scene was just like the so-called zombie movies Qianyue had seen before, it was extremely outrageous!

At first she just planned to dismantle a few door panels in the residential area, but she didn't expect to get into this mess!

She had thought the city was deserted, but unexpectedly, she found that the entire area was filled with locals waiting for her to escape. If this continued, even if she escaped today, how would she gather supplies in the next few days?!

At this moment, some fearless players came up to join in the fun: "What's going on? Why are there so many NPCs suddenly appearing?"

A nearby player, who was about to hide from the spotlight, replied, "They were hiding just now. They probably came out to look for supplies after the storm had passed."

Just then, another person popped his head out and said, "That woman must have just happened to be caught—but these people have been chasing her relentlessly for so long, that woman must have something valuable on her."

He said, "But I advise you to leave quickly. The natives of this dungeon are very ferocious. Be careful, you might get entangled with them..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw the eyes of the player who asked the question first light up!

nice one?

The man chuckled and said, "Why leave when you have such good stuff? No matter if it's real or fake, let's grab it first!"

After saying that, he rushed directly towards the huge team.

"..." Is this guy crazy? Stealing things from these brutal natives?

The two passers-by players thought that the man was going to take a piece of the pie and were mocking him in their hearts for being stupid, but they didn't expect that the man would directly sneak into the team.

The next second, he shouted loudly: "Fellow villagers, listen to my command. We are many! Everyone, split up and run! Outflank her! Divide the supplies equally!"

Passerby players: ???

Qianyue:!!!

Damn, there are still players trying to take advantage of this situation? Do you have any shame?!

The key point is that some of these indigenous people actually believed it.

Seeing that they were already splitting up as they ran, it seemed that they wanted to surround her from both sides——

Qianyue gave the player a middle finger, then turned her attention back to the front and quickly thought of a way to escape.

The area in front of her seemed to be a school, but the school gate was blown up so badly that only the word "school" remained.

The flat ground in the middle should be the playground, but it is now mostly buried.

The teaching building had entire walls blown off, but at least the frame was still there, and a rare two-and-a-half-story building was left.

There are two broken staircases hanging on both sides of the wall, and a few tables, chairs and benches are scattered messily on the floor.

Seeing this, Qianyue suddenly had an idea in her mind, and then she immediately turned around and ran towards the school!
