Yeyun!
This big boy raised the Barrett in his hand high, the black muzzle pointing directly at the chest of Nuya, which had already been shattered by the shotgun.
The wind that blew past the two people at the top messed up his hair, but it did not hinder his gaze from becoming even more resolute!
"Based on my last experience, Nuya's characteristics are very unique. Usually, they only fire their teeth at those they don't care much about, while for those they hate, they choose to tear them apart with their own hands."
"The reason these people around can't hurt Nuya is that its speed is too fast. Players below the rank of school level simply don't have the ability to lock onto it."
"Moreover, ordinary firearms' bullets are hard to harm Nuya. The only way to take it down is to lure it over, then use a shotgun at close range to break part of its defense, and finally use a high-powered firearm to finish it off."
"Your Neos戴 shotgun isn't powerful enough. Use my Barrett. Remember, I'll jump back to lure it down, then use the shotgun to blast it. When you think it's the right time, take it out in one go."
Zhang Yusheng's words echoed in his mind.
"Do you really trust me? Don't forget I'm from the enemy camp."
"There's no choice. Time is pressing, and if we don't kill it soon, who knows how many people will die at its hands. Besides, this is a joint mission for both camps. You've seen how terrifying Nuya is. I believe you're not short-sighted."
A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Yeyun's mouth: "Trusting others so much? You really are a foolish old C."
Bang!
The bullet spun out of the muzzle, shattering the highly raised bones and skin on Nuya's chest before the flames had even dissipated, then shattered the inner organs, precisely severing the spine and bursting out!
Rise!
Mysterious flames rapidly erupted from Nuya's innards, then transformed into a dense ball of fire that enveloped the entire monster!
Bang!
The burning corpse fell to the ground, writhing weakly before coming to a stop.
An anti-material sniper rifle paired with MK211 armor-piercing rounds, when fired at any creature from less than a meter away, would result in certain death!
The recoil of the Barrett was almost negligible to Yeyun. He easily shook his shoulders and casually raised the gun, aiming the muzzle...
At Zhang Yusheng.
Zhang Yusheng had also landed and was about to say something when he saw Yeyun's action, revealing a bitter smile: "We're partners."
"We're enemies." Yeyun smiled strangely.
"Don't move, or I'll shoot, and you'll die."
A gun was pressed against the back of Yeyun's head, and a woman's voice sounded behind him.
"You should be the one not to move!" A second, cold female voice followed, coming from Yihua.
"Don't move!"
"Don't move!"
"Don't move!"
"Don't move!"
A group of people quickly ran over and surrounded the area, their gun muzzles pointing at each other.
At least fifty players from both sides faced off in this relatively spacious underground tunnel.
The atmosphere was tense, thick with the smell of gunpowder.
Of course, no one dared to fire first.
Zhang Yusheng touched his nose: "What's going on?"
Yeyun said calmly: "Isn't it obvious?"
Zhang Yusheng said: "The mission isn't over yet."
Yeyun said: "I know."
Zhang Yusheng said: "You, being so smart, must know what it means if we oppose each other or even kill each other now."
Yeyun said: "It means everyone's mission will fail, and we might even be massacred by the hidden forces of the mysterious organization."
Zhang Yusheng said: "Since you know, why are you still..."
Yeyun smiled and put down the gun: "I know, but it doesn't mean others know. If I don't call everyone over, the battle might have already started before I could explain."
Zhang Yusheng suddenly understood and smiled, looking around at the players from both sides: "You're right. At this moment, some people, seeing Nuya dead, might secretly fire to start a battle. But with you and me facing off, no one would dare to cause trouble... By the way, how did you know someone was protecting me?"
The two of them had basically explained everything with their questions and answers. At this point, everyone finally understood. Under Yihua's and a middle-aged man from CT's instructions, everyone lowered their guns.
Although Nuya was dead, the mission wasn't marked as completed, indicating that Nuya might not be the only one. With so many people present, and even the police and criminals working together, they couldn't defeat Nuya. In the end, it was two 'high-level players' who solved the problem. If the police and criminals turned on each other now, no one would dare to trust the other's back (of course, they were already wary of each other during the battle, but not too deeply).
Zhang Yusheng was right. Although more than half of the twenty-odd criminals were sent by Roger, Roger still wanted them to follow Yeyun and Yihua. Yihua secretly respected Yeyun, so in this situation, they wouldn't immediately open fire.
Similarly, Zhang Yusheng's status in CT was clearly not low. Despite being threatened by his female bodyguard, the CT side didn't dare to act rashly, fearing collateral damage.
Bringing everyone over and openly explaining the situation was definitely better than someone shooting from the shadows and starting a battle without any chance to explain.
Yeyun turned and looked at the clear but fierce girl who had suddenly appeared and pointed a gun at him (she had already lowered her gun): "From the moment we entered the tunnel, she was hiding under the subway platform. After you made a strange gesture, she followed us. Most importantly, I always felt a mysterious hostility pressing against the back of my head, and it couldn't possibly be from my 'ally.'"
"Ha ha!" Zhang Yusheng laughed: "Of course, she wouldn't be polite to you, because..."
Beep~~~
A long whistle sounded from a distance, and both Zhang Yusheng and Yeyun's faces changed.
Yihua stepped forward and said urgently: "Yeyun, that's the train whistle!?"
"What's going on!?" The middle-aged man leading the CT group also walked over with a look of shock.
"It's impossible! This underground tunnel should be sealed, and there shouldn't be any trains coming through!" Zhang Yusheng frowned: "The train on Line 3 didn't arrive on time, which doesn't necessarily mean it derailed, but it at least means it stopped on the line. There are only two tracks on this line, and even if we knew the other track was clear, we wouldn't dare to let other trains in! So I notified them to seal the line before we came."
The middle-aged man from CT looked at the train lying across the tunnel with a bitter expression: "What about this?"
"What to do?" Yeyun coldly threw the Barrett to Zhang Yusheng: "This is the load-bearing area of the building. The space on either side of the subway is large enough for you to take cover."
The middle-aged man frowned: "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Do you want to stop the subway with your hands? Idiot, of course, you should stay far away to avoid being hit!" A T player shouted, causing a burst of laughter.
Seeing Yeyun leading his group to the side, Zhang Yusheng pondered for a few seconds and sighed: "We can't stop it. Let's also stay far away."
"But the innocent civilians..." The middle-aged man wanted to say more but was silenced by a cold glare from Zhang Yusheng's female bodyguard.
Boom!
As everyone had just taken cover, the speeding train collided with the overturned one. The impact instantly triggered numerous explosions, followed by the intense twisting of metal. The hundred-meter-long subway train twisted like a crawling centipede, with the middle section rising high and stacking forward.
Boom... Boom... Boom...
A series of intense explosions echoed, unlike anything that should be inside a train, making everyone present feel uneasy.
The rumbling echoed throughout the underground tunnel, and the explosions and booms filled people's ears. The originally dark passage was now illuminated by the fire, and the sudden bright light even made many people's eyes bleed.
Yeyun subconsciously turned to look at the criminals around him. These were the 'relatively elite' chosen by Roger from over three hundred people. Though not as strong as Roger's Ghost Squad or the team leaders like Yeyun, they were still much stronger than most other criminals, with ranks mostly above sergeant.
But even with such strength, most of them were now crouching on the ground, covering their eyes and ears in a defensive posture, affected by the continuous vibrations and shock waves.
"Something's wrong. The train coming here is wrong, the power of the explosions is wrong, everything is wrong. If someone attacks us now..."
Yeyun thought, his eyes scanning the darkness obscured by the fire, and his pupils suddenly contracted!
