CHAPTER 41: CHAPTER 41: IT’S HIM

"How come you got eliminated too!"

Shanshan had just accepted her own elimination, and turning around, she saw her friend also appearing in front of her.

Seeing this scene, she suddenly felt as if the sky had fallen.

Looking at the number of people left on the battlefield, it seemed like they were out of the top three, failing to make it into the top three!

Han Qiaowen, upon hearing this, said helplessly, "No way around it, someone shot arrows at us from behind in the howling blizzard, we couldn’t hear anything."

Upon hearing this, Shanshan glanced downward and saw someone hiding behind them, shooting arrows at them.

Seeing this scene, she could only sigh helplessly.

By now, only five teams remained on the field.

At this point, these five teams had all moved into the center point, preparing for the final battle.

Only one of these five teams was Manchurian, and seeing this scene, the other four teams all cast hostile looks.

Then, as if agreed upon, the other four teams immediately started besieging the Manchurian team.

Archers and Poison Masters frantically attacked their opponents.

This Manchurian team felt very aggrieved, wanting to escape but having nowhere to go.

At this point, they could only run into the blizzard; otherwise, there was nowhere else to go.

In the end, they were beaten and eliminated.

This team, in the end, burst out in anger, but there was nothing they could do.

With this team eliminated, the remaining four teams immediately started regrouping.

One team originally wanted to ally with two teams, thinking that this way, their team could directly enter the top three.

However, unexpectedly, just as they gathered one team, the other two teams immediately became anxious and spontaneously formed an alliance.

"Looks like the ultimate victor will come from one of these four teams,"

seeing this scene, Shanshan sighed.

Only a few teams left!

If they had moved a bit faster towards the center, in their two-person state, surely they wouldn’t have been singled out for attack.

This way, they would have had a chance to enter the top three, maybe even take first place!

"No way, those two teams are only fighting for second or third,"

someone else couldn’t help but retort upon hearing this.

Shanshan was stunned hearing this; wasn’t it just these four teams vying for victory, who else could it be?

"If not them, could it be some other team?"

Shanshan, wondering aloud, looked around.

Was she missing people from other places?

But the problem was, aside from this center point, everything else was a blizzard; there shouldn’t be anyone outside the blizzard.

Just as she looked slightly into the blizzard, she was stunned.

She saw someone inside the blizzard!

"Are you kidding? People can stay in the blizzard and not freeze to death?"

She had experienced the blizzard herself; in such a severe storm, no one could possibly survive.

But now, seeing someone in the blizzard, she was shocked.

"What, there are people in the blizzard?"

Han Qiaowen, upon hearing this, followed her gaze. When she confirmed there were people in the blizzard, she was stunned and then hurriedly zoomed in.

Soon, she saw a familiar figure in front of her.

The person was sitting inside a wooden hut, and inside the hut, there was a fire burning, shielding against the blizzard outside.

Despite the fierce blizzard outside, the shelter inside seemed extremely safe.

It looked like surviving the blizzard’s onslaught for a while was not a problem.

Han Qiaowen was stunned to see this; when did this safe zone have such a wooden hut, and that person was a familiar face—Yunlin.

Earlier, this person had specifically contacted her on a forum, but she refused to team up.

Now, this person survived to the final stage in the instance?

Looking at it, there seemed to be a big possibility they could take first place.

Seeing this scene, Han Qiaowen’s heart was filled with regret.

If only she had agreed when he contacted her!

Now, she couldn’t even make it into the top three.

Shanshan also recognized Zhou Yingting at this point and was momentarily surprised when she saw him, then instinctively glanced at her nearby friend.

But upon seeing her friend’s face full of regret, she sighed helplessly.

The other person was already feeling this way; she couldn’t say much.

"You say, how could a newbie like him survive until the end alone, and choose the Architect role? How did he do it?"

Shanshan was puzzled, not understanding how he, alone, could manage it.

The Architect role shouldn’t be that powerful.

How could a newbie like him achieve this?

Shanshan wondered, and couldn’t take her eyes off Zhou Yingting.

...

"It should be ending soon,"

Zhou Yingting went to the side and opened the shooting hole to take a look outside.

As soon as the shooting hole opened, the cold wind blew in directly.

Zhou Yingting shivered with the gust of cold wind, and after a glance outside, there was nothing but white, and more than a meter out, nothing could be seen.

Just looking at this scene, you could tell how intense the blizzard was outside.

The circle was continuing to shrink; now the safe zone was a bit distant from him, but Zhou Yingting definitely couldn’t leave.

And on his mini-map, there weren’t many red dots left.

Originally, these red dots were somewhat far apart, but for some reason, they were now standing together.

And it appeared as though they formed two teams.

Is this... an alliance?

Zhou Yingting closed the shooting hole, puzzled while looking at the information displayed on the mini-map.

Zhou Yingting returned to the furnace, continued warming, and watched the mini-map to see when the remaining people would be eliminated.

At this time, having a Refresh Entry would have been nice, turning into some food and drinks—it would feel like a vacation.

However, even if Refresh Entry was used, it would be prohibited in this instance.

Zhou Yingting shook his head, warming himself while waiting for the battle to end.

He had no idea that at this moment, many eyes were intently watching his wooden hut.

As time passed, Zhou Yingting began to notice the blizzard growing more intense outside.

The Third-level Wood safety shelter’s walls started to creak.

Before, the cold wind couldn’t come in, but now Zhou Yingting began feeling a bit of cold air seeping in.

The furnace in front of him seemed to have grown much colder at some point.
