Chapter 100

"Twenty people in total, lure them over and take them all out, then log off and go to sleep." The Cleaner looked through the telescope at the Hongxing players in front of him, who were guarding a monster spawn point and surrounding and killing Pighead Cleaners.

"Should we set up a minefield?"

"No need. Just be on guard for any mutations. Mutations are harder to deal with in this environment. Hey..."

"What's wrong?"

"It looks like someone is fighting the Hongxing players at the nine o'clock direction, it's You You Jingran." The Cleaner observed the distance between the other Hongxing teams and calculated the best time to retreat without being caught. He noticed a battle at the nine o'clock direction, and among the team fighting Hongxing, he saw the figure of You You Jingran, whom he had met before.

Hearing that You You Jingran was involved in the distant battle, Kantu quickly looked in the nine o'clock direction. However, the battle was intense at that moment, and the Hongxing team had already surrounded them. The Gunners were finding cover and shooting, and Kantu did not see You You Jingran. He then sent a message.

"That... Jingran is a bit eager for revenge. When she messaged me, I told her I was on a mission. Bai Yi found someone else to help." After asking, Kantu's face turned a bit awkward, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

Clearly, the lack of trust from his friend made Kantu feel cold, and the tone of the message he sent was probably not good. Otherwise, Kantu would not have had such an expression. Even though he was misunderstood by his friend, Kantu did not say anything bad about his friend in front of the Cleaner, nor did he show any pleasure at seeing his friend being suppressed. Instead, he explained on behalf of You You Jingran.

"Fire, we're here to kill, not to watch." The Cleaner put away the telescope, turned off the safety of his sniper rifle, and started to lock onto the distant target. Due to the attack by You You Jingran's team, the Hongxing players facing the Cleaner had already rushed over to support.

From the battle situation, it was clear that You You Jingran's team was not at an advantage. If the reinforcements from this side also joined, a total wipeout was just a matter of time. Therefore, the Cleaner did not hesitate and immediately started shooting, and Kantu could not help but show a grateful expression.

"Can't hold on, boss, run quickly." Seeing the Hongxing players surrounding them, a mecha warrior drove his mecha in a panic and shouted in the team channel.

"Damn, didn't you say it was foolproof? Why are we running now?" A Gunner was pinned behind a large tree, not daring to show his head. Hearing the mecha warrior's shout, the Gunner instinctively stood up to run away. However, he suddenly felt several contemptuous gazes and angrily shouted, shifting the blame for the current defeat to others.

"Boss, I don't want to either. You know our combat strength. Are a dozen or so people usually our match? Before we came, Miss Jingran only said to kill their leader, not that he had so many subordinates. If that Flower Monk was here, we could have taken him out with one shot and retreated.

But since we didn't find the Flower Monk, Mr. Bai insisted on killing a few people to vent his anger. Isn't this like poking a hornet's nest? Look, there are fifty to sixty of them, and I bet the Hongxing players in the distance are also rushing over. If we don't run now, it will be too late." The mecha warrior looked miserable and felt wronged.

"Run quickly, I shouldn't have trusted you." Another Gunner player said with a dark face. Clearly, this was the Mr. Bai the mecha warrior was talking about. Bai Yi had been quite angry these past few days. In terms of background, Bai Yi was the best among the group, except for You You Jingran. Naturally, he felt he was the perfect match for You You Jingran.

However, these past few days, You You Jingran had been talking about Kantu all the time, which made Bai Yi very resentful. Kantu had always been a bit of an outsider, not because he wanted to be, but because he was bullied by Bai Yi and the others. Although everyone tacitly agreed that Kantu's background was the lowest among the group, they were actually very jealous of him.

They were idle all day, seemingly good for nothing except spending money, while Kantu had worked hard to get into university. At home, his parents often used Kantu to lecture them, so they were all very jealous of Kantu and tried to make him look bad in front of You You Jingran to suppress him.

After the Earthworm King incident, Kantu seemed to have a change of heart and went to learn from the Cleaner. Because of this, Bai Yi and the others did not openly despise Kantu, but they were surprised when Kantu not only learned skills but also started making money from the game instead of spending it.

This made Bai Yi and the others speechless. Whenever they talked about Kantu, they were full of jealousy but pretended to be indifferent, thinking that Kantu had business talent but chose to use a gun to kill monsters, which was clearly a problem. How could a rich second generation play a game without spending money? Does the family expect you to earn money from the game to support them?

However, despite their outward indifference, they felt that You You Jingran was starting to look at Kantu differently. Bai Yi and the others immediately felt a sense of crisis and secretly exchanged a large sum of money to come into the game, claiming it was from before and not wanting to exchange it out again. They spent large amounts of gold every day to enhance their combat strength, all to attract You You Jingran's attention.

One day, Bai Yi saw a bounty for the Flower Monk and, under the guise of doing good, pulled You You Jingran to watch his performance, planning to take out the leader of Hongxing. According to Bai Yi and the others, as Gunners, they could easily complete the task by hiding and shooting from a distance, but they ended up being wiped out.

After the wipeout, what made Bai Yi even angrier was that You You Jingran wanted to get Kantu to help, which was clearly trying to steal the spotlight from Bai Yi and the others. So, Bai Yi and the others decided that since they had been busy accompanying You You Jingran to kill monsters and had not formed their own force, they would bring in Han Hao, who had set up a security company, to deal with Hongxing.

In Bai Yi's view, Han Hao, in terms of status and appearance, was not even worth considering, and You You Jingran would definitely not be interested in him. And since this idea was his, he thought that by showing off a bit during the Flower Monk's kill, he would definitely gain You You Jingran's favor. If she got excited and secretly pledged her heart, it would be a huge win.

However, what no one expected was that after gathering the troops, led by the seemingly game expert Wan Fu Mo Di, the mecha warrior, they crossed the Hongxing blockade and prepared to ambush the Flower Monk, only to find that the Flower Monk had logged off.

Seeing the target gone, Bai Yi, who wanted to show off, shifted his focus to the other Hongxing players. In Bai Yi's view, this trip could not be in vain. If he did not show off now, wouldn't You You Jingran look down on him? But who would have thought that Bai Yi, who wanted to shoot and run, ended up poking a hornet's nest. The Hongxing side clearly had a few experts, and a few sharp counterattacks forced them to flee. Now, they were even being blamed by Han Hao's subordinates, which made Bai Yi even angrier.

"What are you talking about, Mr. Bai? Wan Fu Mo Di doesn't know the rules and talks nonsense. It's just a game, what's the big deal about dying once? It's just a few pieces of equipment, we can buy them again. This time we only thought about killing their leader and forgot about the number of people. Next time, we'll bring more people to take revenge." Han Hao stood up, looking ready to die.

However, a hint of pain flashed in Han Hao's eyes, clearly showing that as the attacking side, they would lose more than just a few pieces of equipment. This time, to show off in front of You You Jingran, Han Hao had spent a lot of money to enhance himself. If he lost a few pieces of equipment, it would be a lot of money. But seeing You You Jingran biting her lip and hiding to the side, occasionally firing a few shots with a determined look, Han Hao felt this was a chance to show off, so he stepped forward.

"That's what a man should say. It's just a few pieces of equipment. I'll cover all the losses when we get back." Seeing Han Hao stand tall and look righteous, with a glance towards You You Jingran, Bai Yi said grandly, acting as if he had plenty of money. The others around him echoed his words.

But at that moment, chaos was all around them. The fastest mutations were already very close, and the heavy mecha warriors, whose footsteps shook the ground, were also rushing over. There were also mentalists controlling psychic equipment and gunners at the back. Despite their enthusiasm, their faces turned pale. The game's virtual reality was 100%, and although death was not real and they could resurrect, they still lacked the courage to face it.

"Hey, it seems someone is helping us from a distance." At this moment, Wan Fu Mo Di, who was still relatively calm, noticed the chaos among the surrounding enemies and said in surprise.

"Did you set up an ambush?"

"No."

"Kantu told us to hold on, he said he would come to save us soon." At this moment, You You Jingran, who had been biting her lip and showing some strength, spoke. Thinking of the words that person had said without hesitation, You You Jingran felt a wave of委屈 (grievance).

During this time, You You Jingran no longer exchanged money to enter the game but relied on her own abilities to survive, all to prove herself. When she encountered difficulties and wanted to ask Kantu for help, she had a small hope in her heart, wanting Kantu to bring the Cleaner to help her.

Although it would be embarrassing, thinking of the lewd remarks from the Hongxing players, You You Jingran really wanted the Cleaner to come and kill them all to vent her anger. But thinking of the Cleaner's serious face and how he did not treat her as a weak woman, You You Jingran hesitated and agreed to Bai Yi's suggestion to get Han Hao's help.

But she did not expect to end up in this situation. Hearing that Kantu was nearby, You You Jingran's heart stirred, thinking of the tall figure that had killed the Earthworm King.

"Kantu is nearby?" Bai Yi's face changed. Then, he gritted his teeth and shouted loudly, "We can't always rely on others. Let's fight them to the end."

Bai Yi looked ready to die, holding his gun and firing at the distant enemies.

"Kantu told us to run, just buy some time." You You Jingran said.

"Are they almost here? Where can we run? A real man should face them. You go first, I'll cover the rear." Bai Yi shouted, seeing that You You Jingran's gaze towards him had changed, feeling a bit smug.

"Right, a real man doesn't run. You go first, I'll cover the rear." Han Hao, seeing You You Jingran's gaze, also reacted and shouted.

"But..." You You Jingran's gaze had changed, but it was not with gratitude, but with anxiety and even anger. Clearly, knowing the Cleaner's temper, she did not want Bai Yi and the others to cause trouble for the Cleaner. But Bai Yi and Han Hao clearly misunderstood her.

"We'll go." A female player next to You You Jingran, who habitually pushed her glasses up, pulled You You Jingran, who wanted to say something, and ran towards the distance.
