nA flash of light flashed across the game panel. Su Mo went to the game chat panel and clicked on the disaster resistance live feed.
n
nAt this point, a feed unlike any other broadcast rooms’ feeds appeared in the first place.
n
nA few flickering sparks could be seen in the image.
n
nMeanwhile, the foreign live broadcast room, which had been ranked tenth, was squeezed out.
n
nA live broadcast room labeled “Hua” topped the page.
n
nThe live broadcast room scored more than three times better in disaster resistance than Zeus Shelter, ranked second.
n
nInstead of paying attention to these details, Su Mo quickly clicked on the live feeds, randomly changing the title to Carrying Out God’s Will, and began using the right as an anchor to watch the video below.
n
nThe five sparks were extremely obvious in the night.
n
nSu Moment instantly knew where the five people were.
n
n“Okay, okay, okay. You’re all waiting to die at the ventilation duct, aren’t you?”
n
nSu Mo laughed with anger and went to the hole beside the bed as he observed from the live broadcast room.
n
nHe focused, and the properties of the hole were displayed.
n
nPassageway
n
nDescription: Incomplete passageway
n
nUpgrade option: Escapeway
n
nSections: Expansion (5), access (60), material (40), strength (200), door (40)
n
nIntroduction: A cunning rabbit has three burrows!
n
n“I choose expansion and access.”
n
nWith that said, the survival points dropped by 65 points, and a green light emerged from Su Mo’s body.
n
nWhat had been a rough opening began to change dramatically.
n
nUnder the system’s force, the originally waist-high hole gradually melted to a height high enough for an adult to stoop through.
n
nThe surface of the hole began to smoothen, and the cut surface of the stone wall became a complete circle.
n
nThe soil along the entrance to the inside seemed to melt, disappearing quickly.
n
nSeconds later, the green light returned, signifying the completion of the transformation.
n
nWith his head down, Su Mo tentatively walked in.
n
nThere were no steps, but the soil inside the escapeway was hard after compression, and the ramp was flat. Soon Su Mo came to an end.
n
nThere was a simple wooden plank at the end, which Su Mo managed to push open with little effort.
n
nLooking around, Su Mo found the location of the wooden plank on the live feed.
n
nIt was right in front of the acid rain lake.
n
nIf you had no idea of the hole and without careful observation, you would never have found it.
n
nHe pushed the wooden door open and stepped out of the shelter.
n
nCrackling acid rain dripped down the raincoat and crossbow, giving the crossbow arrow’s arrowhead a “murderous” tinge.
n
nHe crouched on the ground and walked forward carefully.
n
nLooking at the bright spots on the screen while looking at the road ahead.
n
nSu Mo walked cautiously.
n
nWearing a raincoat with a black back, he looked like Death holding a death sickle in a dark and rainy night, making people shudder.
n
nOne step.
n
nTwo steps.
n
nGradually, not only did he see the sparks in the live broadcast, but Su Mo also saw a sparkle in the fire spark in front of his eyes.
n
n“They wore glasses?”
n
nIn the dark, Su Mo saw the face in the firelight.
n
nWithout saying a word, Su Mo started to move to the left.
n
nThe first blow was the most lethal. He wanted to make sure he could hit the man who seemed to have the strongest combat abilities of the five.
n
nHe looked around, and a second fire spark appeared.
n
n“Scarred face, thick neck, seems arrogant…”
n
nThe best way to judge a man’s combat abilities was to look at his neck and arms.
n
nPeople with thick necks were either trained martial artists or strong. These people were much more difficult to deal with than the average person.
n
n“You’re the one…”
n
nSu Mo’s eyes glowed even colder when he heard the scarred man scolding.
n
nHe got down on the ground and placed the crossbow carefully on the ground. He aimed at Scarface and pulled the crossbow trigger gently.
n
nWhoosh!
n
nPlonk!
n
nSu Mo had no time to savor the wonderful sound as a cold sound exploded in the rain.
n
nHe saw the scarred face man in the distance covered his chest and stumbled down on the ground.
n
nSu Mo saw the crossbow arrow in the middle of the scarred face man’s chest by the light of the fallen, dying torch.
n
nIt was a crossbow arrow with acid rain!
n
nEven a hit in the chest was enough to kill!
n
n“Arghh…”
n
nScreaming rang from a distance. Because of the environment, it sounded unusually beautiful on a rainy night.
n
nOn the live feed, four flames flurried up immediately.
n
nHowever, the movements of all four were very uniform.
n
nNo one chose to save the scarred face man but went into hiding. One even wisely extinguished his torch instantly and hid in the dark.
n
n“You’re smart. I think I’m going to get rid of you next.”
n
nIt was the man with glasses who put out the torch.
n
nInstantly, the man with glasses rolled over and threw his torch near his teammates to divert attention.
n
nUnfortunately, the red cloth on his back was so eye-catching on the live broadcast!
n
nWithout saying a word, Su Mo started winding the crossbow on the ground with both hands.
n
nWith the strong raincoat on him, he need not worry about raindrops dropping on his body. The four people opposite him kept holding their umbrellas and crouching in place, making themselves the perfect target.
n
nFifteen seconds later, Su Mo finished loading the second crossbow arrow and slowly moved on the ground.
n
nThe man with glasses’ hiding spot, which he thought was a good one, slowly came into view as Su Mo moved.
n
n‘Put the crossbow in position.’
n
n‘Aim!’
n
n‘Fire!’
n
nAnother black crossbow arrow shot the man in glasses under his neck.
n
nThe tremendous impact instantly shot the man with glasses to the ground.
n
nA flash of lightning flashed across, and he caught a fleeting glance.
n
nWhen the man with glasses saw where Su Moment was lying on his stomach, he looked like he had seen a ghost and wanted to get up and speak loudly.
n
nUnfortunately, the steady trickle of black blood from his neck kept his words stuck in his throat.
n
nIn three to five seconds, the man with glasses was declared dead.
n
nAll five torches had gone out now, and it was difficult to tell where they were.
n
nLying on the ground, Su Mo was winding his crossbow while taking advantage of the host’s right to move the viewpoint and zoom in on the others.
n
n“Gotcha…”
n
nBeneath the mask, the corners of Su Mo’s lips twitched into a smile.
n
n‘Maybe I understand why some people play shooting games with full perspective now.’
n
nSu Mo’s tension about killing two bandits in a row was relieved by a slightly comical thought.
n
n30 seconds later, he was done winding.
n
nHe shifted his position, looked for a target, aimed, and fired.
n
nThere was another flash of cold light and Pockmarked-face was shot with an arrow in his posterior kidney. The tremendous kinetic energy penetrated his stomach and stabbed right straight into his belly.
n
nThe pain was so great that Pockmarked-face got up and shouted.
n
n“Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! I don’t want to die! Kill Huang Biao! He killed seven people! I didn’t kill anyone. He made me do it. I think…”
n
nOn a rainy night, Pockmarked-face ran and fell limp on the hill.
n
nThe acid rain that accompanied the arrowhead and arrow shaft ate through the human body’s fragile innards almost instantly, killing right away.
n
nThe other two heard Sun Mazi shouting and figured out they were only waiting for their death if they stayed where they were, so they got up and ran.
n
nIn the night, two figured headed in opposite north and south directions.
n
nAs luck would have it, while Su Mo was winding the crossbow, a sneaky-looking man ran in his direction.
n
nThe man ran in a panic, unaware of Su Mo, who was not far away.
n
nIt was only after Su Mo had raised the crossbow that the man realized and wanted to shout.
n
nWhoosh!
n
nThe words stuck in his throat, and he fell limply.
n
n“Go!”
n
nSeeing the fast-moving figure on the live feed, Su Mo got up without looking at the man and ran after him while winding the crossbow with both hands.
n
n“This should be the Huang Biao they said. He really is vicious. He has such a way with escaping.”
n
nHuang Biao was not familiar with the nearby terrain. While he was running, one foot was deep, and the other foot was shallow, but he was fast!
n
nThanks to the familiarity with the terrain and the reference of the live feed, Su Mo was quick too.
n
nOne chased while the other fled. Su Mo, who was at the back, immediately caught up with him and pursued him to about 50 meters.
n
nHe aimed with his crossbow as he trotted.
n
nThe figure of a black arrow flashed. The crossbow arrow failed to hit Huang Biao, who was moving at high speed. Instead, he hit the pole of the umbrella by mistake, breaking it in two.
n
nSu Mo quickly got down on all fours at that. He took all five crossbow arrows out of the inventory and began to press them into the crossbow, preparing to wind it.
n
nHuang Biao’s umbrella broke when he was still running. He had no choice but to return and pick up the umbrella. He shouted repeatedly.
n
n“Kind man. Kind man. Don’t believe Sun Mazi. I’m a good man. I didn’t kill anyone. He did it and planted the blame on me.”
n
n“Let me go. Please. Since we’re all earthlings, spare my darn life.”
n
nA flash of lightning flashed across, and Huang Biao saw Su Mo lying on the ground winding the crossbow, and a cold sweat broke out in his heart.
n
nOnly now did he see the weapon that had repeatedly taken the lives of four people.
n
nWith this weapon, he saw no need to escape.
n
n“I’ll leave all my supplies behind. I know… I know a place—a ruin full of supplies, and I know where there are people. I’ll tell you all about it. Let me go. Let me go. I’ll tell you all about it.”
n
nHuang Biao raised his hands high and shouted repeatedly with his mouth, seemingly wanting to surrender.
n
nHowever, Su Mo, lying on the ground, was aware of the little steps he took from the live feed.
n
nHe was constantly moving forward and getting closer!
n
n“Did you say ruins? What ruins? Where is it?”
n
nWhen he heard Su Mo speak, Huang Biao, who was still moving, did not change his pace. A trace of happiness appeared on his face.
n
n“It’s not far away. Only a few kilometers. I found it underground. There are a lot of good things in it, but we couldn’t open it, so we have no choice but to wander.”
n
n“But I know you can. Your base is so big and so good! You’re so handsome and so powerful. I’m sure it’s nothing to you.”
n
nWhile speaking, Huang Biao calmly moved about 20 meters and came to the place 30 meters away from Su Mo.
n
nIt was a distance a normal adult would take about three to five seconds to run.
n
nHuang Biao was no exception.
n
nAfter moving forward five or six meters, Huang Biao’s voice rose.
n
n“The ruins have a lot of good stuff… and… your head!”
n
nAfter finishing the word “head”, a mace appeared in Huang Biao’s hand. On a rainy night, he directly threw away his umbrella and ran as fast as he could, regardless of the damage of the rain.
n
nTwenty meters.
n
nTen meters.
n
nA flash of blinding lightning flashed across. He could see Su Mo’s face under the mask at this distance.
n
nHowever, Huang Biao, who had seen Su Mo’s face, turned grim instead!
n
nThe next moment, a crossbow arrow stabbed in the middle of his stomach.
n
n“Are you… Su Mo?”
n
nHolding his stomach, Huang Biao knelt on the ground feebly, trembling as he spoke.
n
n“Do you know me?”
n
nSu Mo asked coldly as he pulled away and wound the crossbow.
n
nUnfortunately, Huang Biao failed to finish speaking. Another lightning flashed across, and Su Mo saw Huang Biao’s expression.
n
nIt was a look of…
n
nIncredulity mixed with regret.
n
nUnder the night sky, five villainous bandits had fallen forever near the shelter.
n
nBlood is the only evidence they left behind to prove their existence.
n
n“I just want to live. If you don’t want me to let me live, I can only ask you to die!”
n
nPutting away his crossbow, he looked at Huang Biao, who was still struggling on the ground. Su Mo turned around ruthlessly and went back to check the last hit. He was not after the secret of the so-called “ruins” Huang Biao mentioned.
n
nThe rain was still falling, slowly taking away the traces of the encounter…
n
nThe encounter only took three to five minutes, and the billions of players who watched the entire live broadcast in the live broadcast room were…
n
nBlown away!
