nOutside the prison, Prisoner Snake quickly noticed Fang Heng and the others walking out of Building No. 3.

n

nHe raised his hand, signalling his subordinates to temporarily stop attacking the barbed wire fence on the outer layer of the prison.

n

n“Are you the leader here? Come out and speak!”

n

nFang Heng didn’t get too close. He stood more than 30 meters away from everyone, coldly staring at the nine players standing outside the barbed wire fence.

n

n“That’s me.”

n

nPrisoner Snake was sizing up this handsome young man in front of him.

n

nHis mood turned foul.

n

nHe hated this kind of person who looked better than him the most!

n

n“Oh? You’re quite brave, aren’t you?”

n

n“Quite brave? What do you mean?”

n

nPrisoner Snake revealed a disdainful expression. He revealed a fierce expression as he stared at Fang Heng.

n

n“I say, you have guts. You dare to occupy our territory!”

n

n“We finally cleared out this prison area and now you’re taking over this place? What kind of logic is that?”

n

n“Do you think we’re easy to bully?”

n

nThe players behind Prisoner Snake also started to jeer.

n

n“Yeah! Hurry up! Hand over this place, leave all the food and materials behind, and we’ll let you live!”

n

n“Hurry up and get lost!”

n

n“Get lost! Get lost! Get lost!”

n

nFang Heng looked at them coldly.

n

nHe was too lazy to waste his breath. These people were here to cause trouble.

n

nLiao Bufan couldn’t take it anymore.

n

nHe had never seen such a shameless person.

n

nHe was so angry that he started cursing.

n

n“Bullsh*t! We were here first and we were the ones who cleaned up the zombies here!”

n

n“Hahaha! You think you can do that?”

n

nPrisoner Snake didn’t believe Liao Bufan at all.

n

nHe thought that there must have been an accident in the game that caused the zombies to leave.

n

nThese people took advantage of them.

n

nPrisoner Snake and his companions laughed.

n

n“Cut the crap. You’re not going to get lost, are you? Then smash it! When I catch you, I won’t be so easy on you!”

n

nSeeing that the negotiation was ineffective, Prisoner Snake waved his hand to initiate the attack.

n

nThe players behind him swarmed forward and smashed the barbed wire with their small stone hammers.

n

nThe durability of the barbed wire began to slowly decrease.

n

nIf they were going to attack in this manner, it would take less than an hour to break a small hole in the barbed wire.

n

nPrisoner Snake crossed his arms and looked at Fang Heng behind the barbed wire with great interest as if victory was within his grasp.

n

nHe really could not think of any way for Fang Heng and the others to resist, nor did he notice Fang Heng’s calm expression.

n

nNot far away, Lu Yu and Zhou Yi, who were secretly observing all this, became anxious when they saw Prisoner Snake and the others attacking the prison’s barbed wire.

n

n“The God is in trouble. Should we go up and help?”

n

n“Of course, we have to help. The God has treated us quite well. We can’t just stand by and watch.”

n

nZhou Yi was anxious. He stared at the intruders near the barbed wire fence and thought of a countermeasure.

n

n“Oh right, we still have the earth-made bombs from before, right? When this group of people are closer to one another, we can throw two bombs at them later. We will give them a good time!”

n

n“Good idea!” Lu Yu agreed. “When they are in a state of confusion, I will sneak attack on two of them and you will hold on to one.”

n

n“That’s right. When the time comes, we can work together with the God and the others to get rid of this group of people.”

n

nIn a short while, Zhou Yi and Lu Yu had already planned out a simple and effective strategy to defeat the enemy.

n

nThe two of them had been tense all this time started to relax a little.

n

nLu Yu teased, “As expected of our ‘Crouching Dragon’. To be able to come up with such a thorough plan in just a few seconds, it’s admirable.”

n

nZhou Yi smiled smugly, waved his hand and said humbly.

n

n“You must be joking, ‘Young Phoenix’. In this world, there are only a handful of people who can follow my train of thought. You are one of them.”

n

nLu Yu said, “I’ll contact God and have them prepare to cooperate with us from inside and outside.”

n

n“Don’t rush, hold on!”

n

nZhou Yi hurriedly stopped Lu Yu.

n

n“The God hasn’t asked us for help yet. How can ‘adding icing to the cake’ be better than ‘sending charcoal in the snow’?”

n

n“Let’s wait a little longer. When the God can’t hold on any longer, we’ll appear as his Savior and increase our favorability rating with the God.”

n

nLu Yu’s eyes lit up.

n

n“That makes sense! Boss is a genius!”

n

n“Hehe, you too…”

n

n“Bang!”

n

nA gunshot rang out.

n

nBoth Zhou Yi and Lu Yu, who were in the middle of their discussion, were shocked. They turned their heads to look in the direction of the prison square.

n

n“Bang! Bang! Bang!!!”

n

nGunshots rang out in the prison square!

n

nWhat’s going on?!

n

nThey were shocked to find that the arrogant Prisoner Snake and his gang had actually fled in all directions in an instant.

n

nAmong this group of people, Prisoner Snake was the fastest to flee!

n

nCrazy!

n

nPrisoner Snake was going crazy now!

n

nThe enemy actually had a gun!

n

nThere was more than one gun!!

n

nThere were also mercenaries!

n

nThere was more than one mercenary!

n

nMoreover, they were at least Level 3 mercenaries!

n

nOrdinary players were at low levels and lacked gun mastery skills. The accuracy of their pistols was poor and the damage from a long-distance shot might not be fatal.

n

nHowever, mercenaries were different!

n

nPrisoner Snake could now confirm that the enemy’s mercenary level was definitely not low!

n

nAt least Level 3!

n

nFrom such a long distance, with just two rounds of shooting, they had already killed one player and three players were slightly injured.

n

nAll the players under Prisoner Snake made the same move when they saw their teammates fall.

n

nTurn around.

n

nRun!!

n

nPrisoner Snake was now seriously regretting his actions.

n

nIf he had known that the players in this prison had such strong equipment, he would not have come to this prison even if he was beaten to death!

n

nHe had a premonition that after this attack, his subordinates would suffer heavy casualties!

n

nWhat was more important was his prestige!

n

nAfter this, the prestige that he had painstakingly built up in the team would drop to the bottom.

n

nBut now, he had no time to think about this!

n

nEscaping was the most important thing!

n

nThe moment he saw Fang Heng draw his gun, he knew that he was in trouble.

n

nHe immediately turned around and ran.

n

nHe was the fastest to escape, but Fang Heng had already aimed at him.

n

nFang Heng’s perceptive ability added an additional hit rate for him.

n

nIn addition, Fang Heng also had Level 1 gun mastery, which added an additional hit rate.

n

nFang Heng only fired one shot.

n

nThis bullet accurately hit the left shoulder of Prisoner Snake!

n

n“Unfortunately, it missed a little.”

n

nPrisoner Snake ignored the intense pain in his left shoulder and ran desperately.

n

nPrisoner Snake and his group, who had been aggressive just a moment ago, fled in all directions in a fluster. In an instant, they had all fled without a trace.

n

nIn less than two minutes, the prison and its surroundings returned to a calm and peaceful state.

n

nIn the bushes, Lu Yu retracted his gaze.

n

nHe looked at Zhou Yi beside him with a complicated expression.

n

nHe wanted to ask this question now.

n

n“Mr Crouching Dragon, where’s the ‘coal in the snow’? Did you manage to foresee all this?”

n

nZhou Yi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he couldn’t.

n

nHis face was full of bitterness.

n

nRegret!

n

nAnd he said he would deliver coal in the snow?

n

nBullsh*t! Now there wasn’t even any icing on the cake!

n

nSeeing the twisted expression on Zhou Yi’s face, Lu Yu felt it was better not to provoke him.

n

nAfter all, Zhou Yi’s mental state had not been very good these two days.

n

nHe patted Zhou Yi’s shoulder to comfort him.

n

n“Don’t take it to heart. After all, there are not many gods like Fang Heng. He is the first to complete the construction of a super-large shelter. He must have some talent.”

n

n“Recruiting mercenaries…”

n

nLu Yu sighed in his heart.

n

n“Sigh! Recruiting mercenaries is something only he can do, right?”

n

n“We’re mortals after all. We can’t have predicted this.”

n

n“Moreover, Fang Heng is our partner. He’s our teammate. We should be happy that he’s strong.”

n

nZhou Yi listened to the persuasion and didn’t feel much better. He just nodded bitterly.

n

nThis was the truth but he just couldn’t be happy.

n

nLu Yu was helpless.

n

n“Let’s go. Cheer up.. Let’s go find the God to receive the mission reward.”
