"Could it be supplies? Let's go and grab them quickly!"
Bao Qi shouted excitedly.
Sun Yuan was so strong that she felt with the captain around, they would dominate any other players, so these boxes were as good as theirs.
"That landing spot looks close, but this is a maze. With all the twists and turns, who knows how long it will take to find them?"
Zhou Ze's hand was injured when he was picking mushrooms, so he was wary of trouble: "What if that box is a trap?"
"There's a possibility, but we're just sitting around anyway. Why not go and check it out?"
Zhao Siyu looked at Sun Yuan: "Of course, the final decision is up to the captain."
Sun Yuan didn't speak, seemingly deep in thought, but in reality, he was waiting.
Because he knew what would happen next.
Sure enough, after a few dozen seconds, when the jellyfish carrying the supply boxes all landed on the ground, the plant maze began to change.
The walls of the giant spore plants, which formed the maze, opened up, revealing a path that led directly to the supply boxes.
"Let's go, to grab the boxes."
Sun Yuan dashed out, moving extremely fast.
Xu Qingshan also sprinted at full speed, but in the blink of an eye, Sun Yuan had already left him behind by over twenty meters.
"This... this is too fast?"
Xu Qingshan was shocked, and immediately filled with anticipation. I need to strengthen my body, I want to be this strong too.
"Senior's physical abilities are truly terrifying. Not just one night of seven thrusts, but double that would be no problem."
Zhen Yu thought that if she were Sun Yuan's girlfriend, she might not be able to satisfy him even with all her efforts.
Sun Yuan sprinted for over three hundred meters and arrived at the drop point.
The supply box lay quietly on the ground, like a bride waiting to be claimed by her husband.
The box was not large, a one-meter cube made of silver metal, with no decorations or patterns, extremely simple and plain.
"Exactly like the supply box in the mobile game!"
Sun Yuan muttered to himself, holding the bat and tapping the supply box.
Bang! Bang!
The box didn't react.
Sun Yuan reached out and placed his hand on the box.
Hum!
The supply box lit up with a faint glow.
[Player's vital signs detected, supply box opening!]
As a mechanical voice sounded, a large amount of white mist poured out of the box.
Click! Click!
The lid of the supply box popped up, revealing a gap, clearly unlocked.
Sun Yuan inserted his fingers into the gap and tried to lift it, but it didn't budge, so he pushed it forward with force.
The supply box opened.
Inside, neatly arranged, were many supplies.
Sun Yuan took a quick glance and saw food, water, and a small box with a red cross.
This must be a first-aid kit.
Most importantly, there were two purple spore suits.
However, Sun Yuan didn't touch them and instead picked up a silver metal box. Before he could open it to check, the sound of hurried footsteps filled his ears.
A group of players arrived.
They weren't from his team, as the direction of the footsteps was wrong.
Sun Yuan turned his head and looked to the left.
The man leading the group was wearing a suit and glasses, the same person Sun Yuan had encountered earlier. Qin De said his name was Chen Jun, a counselor from their economics college.
"Put it down!"
Beside Chen Jun, a tall, thin man with glasses, seeing what Sun Yuan was holding, immediately shouted angrily: "Everyone, attack! Take it from him."
"Zhang Wei, wait!"
Chen Jun called out, not wanting to start a conflict.
"What are you waiting for? This is a life-or-death survival game. Who cares about righteousness and morality? Whatever is in that box is ours."
Zhang Wei cursed and took the lead.
There were nine people in their group, and all but Chen Jun charged over.
They thought they had the numbers and would surely win.
Seeing this, Chen Jun had no choice but to join in.
"Get lost, or I won't be polite."
Sun Yuan warned, stuffing the silver box into his jeans pocket.
"Go to hell!"
Zhang Wei cursed, drawing a Japanese katana from his hand and charging at Sun Yuan, aiming a full-force strike at his head.
He was a counselor for the economics college's 21st class, and the katana was one he had confiscated from a male dormitory during a room check. It was sharp, so he kept it in his office.
Yesterday, he was chosen by the silver horse and joined this God's Tower game, bringing the katana with him.
Sun Yuan's eyes narrowed. The strike was unskilled but full of force, aimed to kill.
He didn't need to be polite either.
Sun Yuan gripped the bat tightly and swung it at Zhang Wei's forearm.
With the boost from the Street Fighter gloves, Sun Yuan's explosive power was terrifying, striking just a split second before the katana, hitting Zhang Wei's arm.
Crack!
Zhang Wei's forearm broke, and the katana slipped away.
Sun Yuan kicked Zhang Wei in the stomach.
Bang!
Zhang Wei flew backward, rolling and blocking the path of three teammates.
Sun Yuan sprinted and lunged at the male college student on the right, swinging the bat.
The male student blocked with a wooden stick, but it snapped with a crack, and the bat hit his head.
Bang!
The male student's head exploded.
Sun Yuan, having landed a hit, lunged at the nearest male student on the left.
"Don't... don't kill me!"
The male student, seeing Sun Yuan, turned pale with fear, his voice shrill and high-pitched, like a eunuch.
Unfortunately, it was useless.
Sun Yuan's bat, accurate and powerful, struck his left cheek.
Bang!
The force of the blow made the male student's head explode like an egg hit with full force.
Blood, flesh, brain matter, and a ruptured eyeball splattered everywhere, a gruesome scene.
One blow, one head exploded.
In an instant, two dead and one injured, and they hadn't even touched Sun Yuan's clothes. The terrifying exchange ratio made them instantly cower.
They quickly retreated.
"Classmate, show some mercy."
Chen Jun pleaded.
Sun Yuan didn't attack again, looking at Chen Jun and then at the other college students.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
They retreated again, their morale at rock bottom, no longer daring to fight.
This guy was too brutal.
Xu Qingshan, with the best stamina, was the second to arrive. Seeing the situation, he didn't hesitate, rushing to Sun Yuan's side and standing shoulder to shoulder with him.
"Are you hurt?"
Xu Qingshan was a simple and honest young man. If someone was good to him, he would be even better to them.
After entering the game, Xu Qingshan had received so much care from Sun Yuan that he already considered him a friend. So, regardless of whether Sun Yuan was right or wrong, he would help him if others attacked him.
"No!"
Sun Yuan's lips curled into a smile.
These noobs can't even hurt me?
Chen Jun and the others understood the meaning of Sun Yuan's smile. They were mocked, feeling both embarrassed and frustrated, but they didn't dare to say anything, let alone threaten him.
"What happened?"
Qin De was the third to arrive, seeing the two bodies on the ground, his brows furrowed: "Captain, these guys tried to attack you?"
Qin De immediately showed anger.
In this team, he had no connections, so he had to work hard to win Sun Yuan's approval.
"Qin De, you've misunderstood!"
Chen Jun recognized Qin De, who was well-known in the economics college as a rising star.
"What misunderstanding? You were clearly trying to take advantage of your numbers to steal our captain's loot, but you didn't expect him to be so strong, did you?"
Qin De had high emotional intelligence.
His words not only took a moral high ground but also flattered Sun Yuan.
Damn!
I didn't expect I had the potential to be a lackey.
Qin De was both amused and frustrated. Participating in this God's Tower game had unexpectedly revealed a new ability in him.
A distance of less than four hundred meters wasn't far, but running it quickly was exhausting.
Shen Jingran and Zhen Yu were competing, both pushing themselves to the limit, and arrived with Zhuo Wen.
"Qin De, you don't have the martial virtue. Just be a fighter, and you're trying to steal my right to flatter."
Zhen Yu, hands on her knees, bent over, gasping for breath.
As soon as she arrived, she heard Qin De's flattery and immediately changed her opinion of him.
In the art of flattery, he was a formidable opponent.
Shen Jingran didn't think much about it, first glancing at the supply box to see that it was safe by Sun Yuan's side, then looking at Chen Jun's group.
She wanted to speak but was too out of breath, coughing as soon as she opened her mouth.
The others also arrived one by one, but they were all exhausted, with little fighting ability left.
"What happened?"
Zhao Siyu asked.
"They surrounded Sun Yuan and got beaten up."
Xu Qingshan explained.
Everyone was stunned.
You've got to be kidding me?
After a four-hundred-meter sprint, facing one, two...
My God, there were nine people on the other side,
Sun Yuan killed two and injured one.
He's too strong!
"Captain, you're amazing!"
Bao Qi's words were not flattery but genuine praise. After saying that, her eyes turned to the supply box: "What's in that box?"
"Food, clothes, map."
Each word Sun Yuan said made everyone's eyes light up, and by the end, they couldn't help but cheer.
Great!
Following the captain, we'll definitely have food.
"Classmate, can you share some with us?"
Chen Jun pleaded.
Since they couldn't win, they had to seek peace.
Swish!
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Sun Yuan, tense and anxious.
"Captain, don't..."
Bao Qi was worried. If the loot was shared, she would get less. She was about to persuade him but was glared at by Zhao Siyu.
Bao Qi was taken aback and realized.
Indeed, in such matters, she had no say.
"Do you think that's possible?"
Sun Yuan asked, seeing Zhang Wei, with his broken arm, trying to get up, and walked over to him.
"Don't... don't kill me!"
Zhang Wei begged.
