CHAPTER 161: CHAPTER 161: ARE THESE THREE CHEATING?

[Eastern Camp - Chosen One: Oh my, what’s happening? Is the slaughter starting this early?]

[Central Camp - Pisces: Did the Western Camp find something good? Why are they attacking so quickly?]

[Southern Camp - Guotao: Western Camp, if you have guts, don’t run away! I’ll kill you all!]

...

The sudden commotion in the world channel made [Mjolnir] of the Western Camp gnash his teeth.

Those three are definitely doing it on purpose.

Not following orders, not responding to messages, and now directly storming the opponent’s camp to provoke?

How dare they?

[Mjolnir] was furious, and sitting across from him, [Fire Cloud Eye] cautiously asked, "Brother Lei, what are we going to do?"

"Ignore them, focus on improving our strength. A tough battle is coming up."

What to do?

How should he know?

This game doesn’t allow quitting halfway unless they’re all killed off.

Those three are definitely pretending to be benign to lure them into a trap.

Was it just to delay their leveling up?

Is it worth playing like this?

Boldly running to the enemy’s headquarters to kill players?

Do they not understand what death is?

He wants to see how long they can last in the Southern Camp?

The three he hated so much had boldly headed to other camps again.

Bai Xiaotang watched her sister Ning’s audacious moves, her heart pounding with a strange thrill.

Can the game be played like this?

When players in the Southern Camp were getting ready to kill them, they had already run far away.

The three continued picking up equipment as they walked, killing small monsters, and leveling up.

Although they never used the camp’s training ground or consumed any potions, their strength wasn’t weak, and equipped they could easily kill quite a few monsters.

"Ah— I think I’m about to awaken a superpower?" Bai Xiaotang suddenly shouted.

Bai Xiaotang handed the game screen to Ji Ning. At that moment, a CG animation appeared next to [Princess Tangtang] in the game. The beautiful [Princess Tangtang] was attracted by a surge of energy, closed her eyes, and followed the energy’s guidance, floating in mid-air, with countless little yellow dots drilling into [Princess Tangtang]’s body.

Accompanied by some cheesy subtitles, Bai Xiaotang was almost jumping with excitement.

Lin Yuanyang in front was also a bit envious, turning around to take a look.

The conditions for awakening a superpower in the game are very mysterious; some people naturally awaken while fighting monsters, others awaken upon touching a treasure box. The awakening method is very random, leaving players baffled.

The official instructions were absent; they just let players explore on their own.

Ji Ning looked at [Princess Tangtang]’s successful awakening of a Healing Ability, glanced at the character’s attributes and the equipment she was carrying, and said flatly, "It should be related to your equipment."

"Ah?"

Bai Xiaotang is a player who is both unskilled and loves playing. To prevent dragging them down, Ji Ning and Lin Yuanyang would always give her any life-saving equipment and medicine they found.

As a result, Bai Xiaotang’s [Princess Tangtang] was the thickest-skinned character with the most potions among the three. Even if accidentally hit by a bullet, she could last two rounds and be saved by the others.

Ji Ning did not explain further, asking Lin Yuanyang to show her his game screen.

"You’re almost there too."

Lin Yuanyang immediately felt uplifted.

Ji Ning continued leading the two in the game. After killing two elite monsters and over twenty small ones, they finally reached the [Central Camp].

[Central Camp] is located on a large plain without any obstructions around, so any attack can clearly be seen.

The defense constructions of the Central Camp are very strong, with tall walls, surrounded by spotlights and laser guns.

The people collecting resources also go in and out by car, clearly affluent.

Obviously, they’ve been collecting resources, and everyone is involved.

Bai Xiaotang used binoculars to watch the camp with empty grounds, feeling quite tempted, "Sister Ning, shall we go in?"

Ji Ning glanced at her, "No rush. Let’s wait for them."

They were in a residential area, a bit of distance from the Central Camp.

The resources were rich, ammunition was abundant.

But there was a big Boss locked inside; Ji Ning and the others approached from the opposite direction, just able to see its back through the binoculars.

Ji Ning led Bai Xiaotang and Lin Yuanyang to deliberately hide, in a room not far from the big Boss.

The three of them were practically dancing on a bomb, one slight misstep and they’d be dead.

The people from Central Camp were really cautious, continuously searching nearby without coming this way, presumably aware that besides having resources, a house-laden area also has formidable enemies.

As time passed, the people from Central Camp finally began heading their way.

Almost everyone was dispatched, driving two cars towards them grandly.

The sound of gunfire outside, the rumbling, was constant.

After eliminating a wave of peripheral small monsters, they quietly infiltrated the residential area.

These people seemed to be veterans too, their actions were orderly, clearly familiar friends playing together, just like Ji Ning and the others.

When Bai Xiaotang saw someone sneaking toward their house, she was very nervous, staring motionless at the door, afraid the enemies outside would storm in, "Sister Ning, the enemies are inside."

"Hmm, don’t move, I’ll go out."

These houses in the residential area were all three-story villas with many rooms.

The three people who entered couldn’t find their room initially, so Ji Ning controlled [Daddy Ning] to go directly out of the room.

There were three players entering the villa. If they wanted to collect resources, they would definitely split up; Ji Ning hid in a room corner, swapping her gun for a handgun that could fit a silencer.

This gun had a short range and few bullets, not easy to kill a fully armed player.

But for someone like Ji Ning who could dominate in chaotic times, dealing with these three players, who she saw as weaklings, took almost no effort to take one down.

As gunfire erupted fiercely in the room, Bai Xiaotang was already screaming out excitedly from the sideline.

"Sister Ning, that’s amazing!"

Lin Yuanyang was really envying Bai Xiaotang’s seat and gender.

He wanted to watch too...

The long-quiet world channel exploded again.

[Southern Camp - Jiujianai: No wonder you couldn’t be found, you’re off slaying in the Central camp now, huh?]

[Eastern Camp - Cabbage: The Western folks are bold; Daddy Ning is a real man.]

[Southern Camp - Guotao: Coward, if you have guts, come to the South, see if I don’t slaughter your whole family.]

...

Seeing the messages in the channel, [Mjolnir] felt a bit overwhelmed. Originally thinking the three were honestly gathering resources, it turns out they killed elite monsters. Thinking they were lost, they ended up in the Southern Camp and killed two people; thinking they’d be killed by Southern Camp people, instead, these three were not only lively but slayed monsters all the way to the Central Camp...

Have these three hacked the game?

Were they not in the same camp, he’d definitely report them!

No matter how he felt, Ji Ning and the others were now surrounded by players from the Central Camp.

They weren’t even gathering resources, all focusing their attacks on this house.

Mortars, grenades, smoke bombs came one after another, determined to flatten this place.

As they were about to close in on the house, a fierce roar was heard; the big Boss lurking behind the house woke up.
