Chapter 28

Chuci had no idea that the gold-plated enforcer James Bond, whom he had summoned at great expense, was about to be taken down by a woman who seemed to have a menstrual cycle that lasted thirty days every month. He was sitting on the edge of the rooftop with Cheng Rui, a little girl, their legs swinging over the edge. Each of them held an apple, munching away, the atmosphere relaxed and their moods carefree, especially with the fresh air after the rain, their feelings were completely opposite to Bond's.

"Uncle, when are we going to look for my dad?" Cheng Rui cautiously observed Chuci's profile, confirming that his mood was good before mustering the courage to ask.

"Anytime, do you know the approximate landing spot of your dad?" Chuci wasn't insistent on joining 007. With 007's skills, he could create all sorts of chaos on this isolated island even without Chuci, who was like a walking arsenal. Thus, Chuci, having lost his target, was happy to run around with Cheng Rui.

"I don't know."

Chuci wasn't surprised by Cheng Rui's answer. After all, they had all parachuted from a plane, and a little girl couldn't possibly overcome her fear to observe her father's position; it was already fortunate that she landed safely.

"This is troublesome." The isolated island wasn't small; even if they walked in a straight line, it would take seven to eight days, not to mention the dense forests and rocky slopes. Exploring the island roughly would take at least half a month.

"Let's take it one step at a time." Chuci thought of the various bomb traps he had set up along the way and could only hope that Cheng Rui's military father was smart enough not to step on them.

Meanwhile, Chuci suddenly hoped that certain people wouldn't step on the traps, while Bond was angrily cursing that the woman didn't step on them.

"It's useless, you might as well surrender!" When Yin Yihan reappeared, she remotely detonated the exposed Vulcan Gatling gun, feeling a pain in her chest.

"Damn, even tungsten-core rounds can't penetrate it!" Bond cursed, holding an HK416 assault rifle. It wasn't that he didn't want to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor, but facing a monster that bullets couldn't harm, no one could stay calm.

As soon as Bond moved to a new position, a series of bullets hit his previous spot.

"Too tough, everyone, retreat quickly!" Whether it was due to the main god's translation or Bond's good Chinese, his call to retreat was both bandit-like and full of sarcasm.

Seeing such a handsome foreign man act so frivolously and bandit-like, Yin Yihan's anger intensified, and she pursued Bond.

Bond fled in a panic, while Yin Yihan pursued with urgency. Fortunately, his teammates provided cover, occasionally firing cold shots. Even though Yin Yihan wasn't afraid, she reflexively slowed down, allowing Bond to crawl into the half-open gate of the military factory.

Just as Yin Yihan was about to step into the factory, she suddenly smiled slyly: "Trying to lure me in? I see through your plan!"

Instead of advancing, Yin Yihan retreated, her legs making a clicking sound as two nitrogen thrusters appeared. With two puffs, she retreated over thirty meters in a second!

At the same time, Bond pressed the detonator, and with a boom, a ball of flames erupted at the gate, sending steel fragments flying in all directions. Unfortunately, Yin Yihan had already moved out of the maximum damage range, raising her hand to shield her face, the steel fragments couldn't even hurt her hands.

"Bond, she's still alive!" Someone on the wall, who had been watching Yin Yihan, was shocked by her speed and defense and quickly called for help, "The witch is coming again!"

"Damn it!" Two irritable men even leaned out, firing submachine guns: "Kill you, monster!"

Before Bond could shout a warning, even stranger news came: Yin Yihan retreated again.

Why? Bond couldn't figure it out. She could have continuously drained their energy and then taken them down in one go. Was it because she ran out of ammunition?

Bond's understanding was still insufficient, and he didn't fully grasp the enhancements from the main god. Yin Yihan's human alloy equipment had significant flaws in combat intensity. Before reaching a certain strength, its endurance was extremely fragile. If a more experienced cycle player had been there, they would have rushed out to kill Yin Yihan, who was practically a sitting duck at that moment, and anyone with a gun could have turned her into a sieve.

But Bond's caution was no less than Chuci's. Both were brave and flexible, never taking a fight without a sure win. This gave Yin Yihan one opportunity after another to attack.

Fortunately, Bond had the military factory behind him, which was well-stocked with weapons, enough to arm seven or eight people. Although the ammunition was limited, the equipment and raw materials were abundant. Bond fiddled with them, and a steady supply of low-quality gunpowder was available for use.

There was even a jeep in the warehouse. Bond had initially thought of mounting the Vulcan Gatling gun on it, but after Yin Yihan shot it, it was directly scrapped, so he abandoned the idea.

While Bond and a few "weak" men were fiercely resisting the big boss Yin Yihan, racking their brains to outmaneuver her, Chuci and Cheng Rui had already embarked on a journey to help the frail little girl find her father, much like a plot from "Empresses in the Palace."

As mentioned earlier, the isolated island was shaped like a gourd. Chuci guessed that with Cheng Rui's father's military skills, he was likely doing well and would search the island for his daughter. The narrow central part of the island would be a must-pass point for him.

There was a small cliff there, from which the entire path could be clearly seen. If they waited there, the chances of encountering Cheng Rui's father would be much higher.

Deciding on this, the two naturally headed for the cliff, passing through a small forest. They even encountered two other contestants, who were ragged and almost unrecognizable.

Seeing Chuci and the little girl, they probably thought they had a chance and jumped out.

The result...

Chuci, who was empty-handed, casually pulled out an M4A1 and fired, immediately eliminating the two foolish bandits.

"Idiots!" Chuci didn't like cursing, but encountering such rookies genuinely made him feel good. He released his hand from Cheng Rui's eyes and continued walking with her.

Although Cheng Rui was puzzled why Chuci didn't collect the spoils, she was used to following her uncle's instructions and didn't ask.

Regardless, Chuci encountered quite a few people that day. Just as they emerged from a small forest onto an abandoned concrete road, Chuci met another bandit.

Without a word, Chuci pulled out his M4A1 and prepared to fire.

"Wait, brother, we're on the same side!" The middle-aged laborer was terrified by Chuci's actions and quickly raised his hands to declare his identity.

"Huh, it's you?" Chuci tilted his head, pausing for a moment before remembering the middle-aged laborer whose name he hadn't even bothered to remember.

"Yes, brother, do you remember me?" The middle-aged laborer was delighted and quickly tried to establish a connection.

"No, I don't." Chuci rejected him outright.

What a joke. Chuci could accept a little girl as a burden, treating a medium-level challenge as a difficult one, but he absolutely didn't want a pig teammate.

Just like in his previous job, he allowed the CEO to assign a second-generation to his independent project to gain experience, but he didn't like new employees disrupting his hard-earned database. A cheerleader who was useless and a teammate who might hinder him, which would Messi choose? Chuci would definitely choose the cheerleader.

So, while the middle-aged laborer was awkward and stiff, Chuci directly led the little girl around him and continued walking.

"Wait, brother, don't go so fast!" The middle-aged laborer recovered and quickly caught up, expressing admiration and making all sorts of vows, almost ready to kowtow and call Chuci his leader. The core message was to ask Chuci to help him.

"Impossible, you should leave." Chuci was unmoved, his gun always near the middle-aged laborer, preventing him from getting too close.

The middle-aged laborer was about to plead when Chuci suddenly sighed, patted Cheng Rui, and positioned her behind him. He then looked at the laborer with regret: "Honestly, I don't want to hurt someone from the same place as me, but don't force me." He held an M67 grenade in his hand, subtly pointing it towards the dense forest on the left.

"What are you saying?" The middle-aged laborer's eyes showed panic, and his ingratiating smile faltered.

"I said, either get out of the way, or I'll kill you all!" Chuci was fed up with these people treating him like an idiot. Without a word, he removed the safety clip, bit off the pin with his teeth, and threw the grenade into the forest.

As soon as the grenade flew in, there were cries of alarm, and the seemingly empty forest suddenly revealed several figures. After the grenade exploded, although no one was killed, everyone was exposed.

Chuci counted carefully. Wow, there were quite a few people. Among the new cycle players, everyone except Gao Yuan and Liu Dian was there, along with four unfamiliar faces, who seemed to be in a temporary alliance.

"Get lost." Chuci let the new cycle players leave. He had recently read many novels, most of which had penalties for killing teammates. Since he had been in contact with the main god for a short time, he didn't know the answer to this question, so leaving the four unfamiliar contestants was the best choice.

"You don't have to be afraid. He only has one gun. Once he runs out of bullets, he's done." The unfamiliar contestants saw that the five cycle players were about to leave and panicked. If there were more people, Chuci wouldn't be able to kill everyone with just one gun, but with only four people, each would have to face about ten bullets.

"Oh? You want to test your luck?" Chuci wasn't afraid of numbers. If there were more, he might even pull out a rocket launcher for a covering strike.

The new cycle players looked at each other and abandoned their temporary teammates without hesitation.

The four unfamiliar contestants weren't stupid. Seeing their side being split by Chuci, they immediately crouched and fled, trying to use the trees for cover.

"Idiots!" Chuci muttered, and in front of the new cycle players, he switched to an M4A1 with a scope from his implant space and quickly shot three of them.

Just as the last one was about to escape Chuci's shooting range, Chuci generously pulled out an RPG, and with a whoosh, he scored another kill.

Seeing the new cycle players' stunned expressions, Chuci smiled lightly and left with the little girl.
