Chapter 86 Desert Search (9) - Conquering the Oasis
The leader thought that the other party seemed to have plenty of points, so 10 points wouldn't be a big deal to him.
But the other party is concerned about giving away these points. Their principle is that no one can take any points away from them.
"Get out of the way," Si Zhong said calmly, as he went to get something from the trunk.
But the leader wasn't about to give way so easily, and continued to stand still: "Brother, you don't need these points, do you? 10 points, and I'll let you pass."
Si Zhong was fed up with repeating the same things several times. Seeing that the other party was unmoved, he didn't even want to talk anymore.
He drew a knife from behind his waist and charged at the leader, intending to teach him a lesson.
The leader was startled and before he could react, he suddenly heard a gunshot.
Ning Shu saw a bullet shot towards Yi Baiwan from behind her. Yi Baiwan actually blocked the bullet with his knife, and the bullet and knife made a crisp sound when they collided.
Then came the second shot. This time, Yi Bai probably reacted and dodged the bullet by turning to the side.
This is just... outrageous!
She had only ever seen this kind of scene in movies and TV shows; she never expected it to happen in front of her.
One million was very fast and agile, and soon he reached the leader.
Ning Shu, worried that the other person might also fall victim, shouted, "Watch out for the shadow!"
Upon hearing this, the other person glanced at the ground and indeed saw a thin shadow darting towards him.
He immediately changed his position, and with a few leaps, he arrived in front of the leader as if death had descended.
Before the leader could even show a look of terror, his face was sliced in two by the knife in his hand. His body froze for a moment before collapsing to the ground.
Blood stained that patch of sand.
Si Zhong was too fast. Before anyone could react, they saw this terrifying scene. Then, the other person looked in the direction where the gun had been fired at him.
The sharp gaze carried a hint of death, instantly sending chills down the spine of the person being stared at, causing their body to stiffen for a moment.
Ning Shu was able to move by now, and she looked in the direction where the gun had been fired.
She discovered that the person who fired the shot was actually the guy she had been asking for information from earlier!
The other party turned out to be a member of a gang of thugs; I don't know when he sneaked here.
The young man was indeed a member of the bully gang. After he found the oasis using his own tools, the leader sent him to the outer perimeter as a sentry.
They specifically target players who come for the oasis. One member of their team has the ability to set up a barrier, which will be detected as anyone approaches the lake, and that person will then blow a whistle.
When the young man saw that his men hadn't gained any advantage this time, he pretended to come down to help Ning Shu and the others, but in reality, he was supporting his own people.
He picked up the pistol from his companion, who had been beaten half to death by Wu Yi, intending to deal with Sister Li and the others, but then discovered that an even more formidable figure had arrived.
He coveted the other party's car, thinking that if they left the car behind, and with Oasis around, completing the mission would be a piece of cake.
As expected, he was still young and fearless, and ended up messing with a tough opponent.
Si Zhong looked at the fool who dared to shoot him, a chilling smile playing on his lips, and in the next moment he was in front of the other person.
That gun must have been a prop; the bullets seemed endless. The guy fired several shots but couldn't force the person back. Instead, the other person quickly got in front of him.
Then the other person swung their knife and made a slash. The young man felt that his vision was strange. First he looked at the sky, and then he saw the desert upside down.
It turned out that his head had flown off and fallen to the ground.
At this moment, Ning Shu, filled with fear, pulled Wu Yi and dragged him behind a fruit tree to hide him.
Sister Li's people reacted quickly. When they saw Ning Shu and the others getting close, they also quickly moved away.
Ning Shu didn't think that the million was helping him; he was afraid that the other party would get carried away and kill him as well.
After seeing that the other party had dealt with the two people who had offended him, he bent down and repeatedly wiped the knife on the clothes of the guy lying on the ground.
As if he still found it dirty, he walked to the lakeside, scooped up some water with his hands and rinsed the blade a few times before putting it back into the scabbard at his waist.
His trench coat was open, so it didn't affect his ability to put his hand in or out, and when he put the knife back, it was hidden by the trench coat, so it didn't look like he had a weapon.
He glanced at the people lying on the ground and those hiding, and with just a glance, Ning Shu and the others got goosebumps all over their bodies and didn't dare to breathe, for fear that the other party would repeat the "wonderful performance" just now.
Ning Shu hid behind a tree and kept an eye on Si Zhong.
Si Zhong first walked back to the car, opened the trunk, took out an extra-large water jug-shaped container, removed the water dispenser, and carried the jug to the lake to fill it with water.
The action lasted for quite a while. After filling the huge bucket, he effortlessly lifted it onto his shoulder and carried it to the trunk of the car.
He did manual labor with an air of elegance.
One million was not only agile but also strong.
With that kind of power, he could probably kill someone with a single punch. It was a miracle he didn't break her arm last time.
It seems that if you want to clear the game with the other party, you have to be extremely careful and avoid any conflict of interest, or your life will be in danger.
Once Ning Shu realized this, she couldn't help but swallow hard.
After putting the water dispenser back into the bucket, Si Zhong drove away.
As soon as he left, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. Ning Shu had to admit that the god of death had unintentionally saved their lives.
Sister Li and her team reacted quickly. Now that only one member of the gang was still able to move, they rushed forward to subdue him, and the Oasis was liberated.
Ning Shu and Sister Li were naturally the victors. Regarding whether or not to share the spoils, Ning Shu suggested that they collect points appropriately, but after that, they could not care how much material the other party wanted.
After all, they didn't win on their own. If it weren't for the million-dollar aid along the way, she probably would have perished here.
Sister Li agreed with this point; without the strength of the previous bully team, they wouldn't have been able to completely protect this oasis.
They've just taken the land, so it's better for them to collect some points from the players who haven't even reacted yet and then share the oasis, than to fight to the death with other players later.
Ning Shu suggested that the participating players distribute the resources first, and then collect the points from the other players, to which all participating players agreed.
Ning Shu and Wu Yi first collected some fresh fruit, and then she asked Wu Yi to fetch water.
They had a total of 10 empty bottles and one empty test tube, which could hold quite a bit of water. They planned to collect points from other players after they had prepared all the supplies.
They agreed that each person would receive 20 points.
First, Ning Shu knew that those players could afford it; second, because of her original statement; and third, since they didn't care how much material the other party took, it was completely worthwhile to take double the amount.
They collected a total of 260 points, and after deducting the points from the deceased cooperating players, each person could get 43 points.
Ning Shu gave the two extra points to Sister Li, since they had contributed the most.
They thanked the deceased player and built him a grave, using two tree branches to make a cross as a tombstone.
While the other players were collecting resources, Ning Shu took Wu Yi to dig up the fruit they had buried earlier.
