Chapter 159 Ending early
Because it's located in the very center of the map, where all the squads gather, no one dares to sleep.
I was afraid that sleeping might cause me to miss something important, make a big mistake, and lead to regret.
"boom!"
With a roar of car engines, Gu Jingchen's team arrived.
He had his underlings watch the car while he went over to Lu Youyou's side.
"Hey ladies, how about we team up? There will be a lot of people coming soon."
Lu Youyou pretended not to hear and did not react at all.
Wang Qiao stared at him with a half-smile, toying with the smoke bomb in her hand.
Gu Jingchen, though embarrassed by his rebuff, invited Lu Youyou again: "Compared to the other teams, you should be more familiar with me, right?"
"If you don't cooperate and leave, I'll treat you to rat poison capsules."
Gu Jingchen sighed and left with a disappointed expression.
He had just gotten back into his car when another squad appeared in the distance.
The new team was small and didn't dare to get too close, only lingering on the periphery.
As time went on, more and more teams arrived.
Anyone who tried to seize the center position of Lu Youyou's team was either shot to death by Lu Youyou with a hidden arrow or blown up by Wang Qiao with a bomb.
Over time, no one dared to provoke them anymore.
However, the smaller teams on the periphery began to probe and make contact with each other, frequently glancing towards the very center.
An hour later, the map shrank again.
People outside the circle become the outermost edge of the map.
Lu Youyou watched helplessly as many people's avatars on the public screen turned black.
It's just a matter of a moment.
A large number of people died.
Those on the periphery could no longer sit still and began to gather in large numbers towards the center.
For the outermost circle, hit the second-to-last circle; for the second-to-last circle, hit the third-to-last circle…
The shouts of killing and fighting were deafening, and cries of agony could be heard everywhere.
Blood soaked the highway, a mixture of dark red and bright red.
Lu Youyou and her teammates were scattered along the boundary line of the small circle. Although they did not actively kill anyone, anyone who dared to cross the line would be shot on the spot.
At this point, the hidden blade becomes most effective.
At short distances, passing through a person is like passing through a candied hawthorn skewer.
When the arrow reaches its maximum range and returns automatically, it can still take the lives of some people.
The number of corpses surrounding the squad increased, and the threat grew stronger.
The others were just willing to fight to the death, not to die for nothing. Seeing that Lu Youyou's team was not to be trifled with, they changed their target.
Instead of moving towards the center, they changed their objective: to defend their area and prevent outsiders from occupying it.
After an unknown amount of time, the melee gradually subsided.
There were quite a few people standing there, a huge crowd.
But there were even more people lying down, and the line seemed endless.
The blood couldn't seep down and accumulated to a height of two or three centimeters on the ground.
People with short-soled shoes are practically like their feet are soaking in blood.
Zhi...zhi...
The watch beeped again, indicating it was trying to connect.
This time, however, it wasn't Xiaolu speaking; it was a person with a human voice and intonation speaking.
[Tsk tsk tsk, how cruel! You've killed everyone. How can the game continue? I've arranged a lot of mini-games later on.]
Sigh, I guess I'll have to arrange for you to do this on your future trips. I'm such a perfect and understanding person!
"A human? You're a human! You're not a monster!"
A desperate roar came from somewhere: "If we're human, why do we have to kill each other!"
[Infighting?]
The sound coming from the watch was somewhat amusing.
I didn't intend for you all to fight amongst yourselves. I carefully planned the number of participants for each area's treasure hunt before sending you there.
[If you don't believe me, take a look at the large circular platform I've prepared. It can accommodate everyone and every vehicle in this area, but they need to be very close together.]
You are so selfish and heartless! You actually killed your own people.
"You ordered us to kill! The map kept shrinking! Only those standing in the very center could survive! There can only be one winner!"
[Really? Then why didn't those of you standing on the outer edge die? Who told you that only those at the very center could survive?]
The man who had questioned him fell silent.
Everyone else fell silent.
Nobody said that you can only survive if you stand at the very center; that's just what everyone thinks.
[Is everything alright now? In that case, anyone who disrespects me deserves to die!]
"what--"
A man covered in blood suddenly rose vertically into the air, and exploded out of thin air after reaching a certain height.
Blood and bits of flesh splattered all over the people below.
[I'm not Xiao Lu. Watch your words when you talk to me, or next time your death won't be so simple.]
[I am now announcing that due to insufficient player numbers in various regions, lower than my estimated number, some activities cannot proceed, and the game has ended prematurely! Rankings will be announced later by Xiaolu.]
Sizzle...
Another ear-piercing sound rang out, and the road beneath everyone's feet changed its appearance.
The circular road turned into a vertical strip, and there was no blood underfoot; it was completely clean.
Lu Youyou was just whispering to Wang Qiao when, in the blink of an eye, all her teammates were gone.
She was the only one left on the highway.
Upon opening her watch, Lu Youyou discovered that the [Team] had automatically disappeared, and the [Guild] could now be accessed normally.
After confirming everyone's safety in the gang group chat, Lu Youyou quickly went to the folding bathroom to take a shower.
He was covered in blood and was filthy.
After taking a shower, I changed into clean clothes.
I had just sat down when I heard Xiao Lu's announcement.
The rankings for the Treasure Hunt game have been released. Please check your inventory for details. Rewards will be distributed tonight at 10 PM.
Lu Youyou opened the backpack slots, and the first slot contained her emails.
The first page displays individual rankings.
Lu Youyou came in second place with 180 people killed and 982 people inherited, totaling 1162 people.
The first place is Wang Qiao, who killed 581 people and inherited 2819 people, totaling 3460 people.
Further down, Lu Youyou could also see several familiar names.
Qi Yuan, Gu Jingchen, and Yang Yan ranked fifth, seventh, and eighth respectively.
However, this ranking left Lu Youyou confused.
Gu Jingchen killed more than 8,000 people, which was the largest number she could see at a glance. Surprisingly, he was not the first but the seventh.
Qi Yuan, that woman who seemed to be obsessed with love, killed more than 6,000 people and ranked fifth.
Lu Youyou clicked on the second page, which showed the team rankings.
The team is ranked first with a total of 2993 points.
However, the second place team had over 10,000 points, led by Gu Jingchen.
Lu Youyou: ……
I had a feeling that something was wrong, thinking I wouldn't be able to make the list, but I ended up either first or second.
[You have already checked your ranking and points. Please select whether you wish to redeem your points for supplies.]
"exchange."
Okay, your team points are 2993, so you only have 2993 points available for redemption. Redemption beyond your points limit is not permitted. Please be aware of this.
The next second, a product page similar to Taobao appeared on the watch screen.
It not only allows you to filter the type of goods you want to redeem, but also the region where you want to accumulate points.
Lu Youyou selected pet-related items and set the maximum score to 1400 so she could buy one for each of Da Rui and Xiao Hei.
