162: Chapter 59 The Strongest Team on the Island_2 162: Chapter 59 The Strongest Team on the Island_2 “Alright, when they come in, you follow from behind and cut off their retreat.
We’ve got a good number of sturdy men here and each one’s armed with four full bomb waist bags.
We got this, no doubt.
Besides, we have a few sets of communicators from the supply box.
Thanks to these trump cards, we could set up an ambush circle unknown to others and have taken out numerous gamers”.
“Alright, no, wait.” Said the scout with a rushed and incredulous tone.
“What’s the problem?” The team captain began to tense up, worried that they might be discovered, which would turn the situation into a chase and lose their existing advantages.
“Don’t attack them, just let them pass and we find a new place to set up a trap and wait for new prey.
” The scout murmured with a deathly low voice, obviously terrified and fearful of being found.
“What’s happening?” A female teammate called out in annoyance, “You’ve already killed five gamers.
What are you worried about?”
“These guys aren’t to be messed with, each of them has eight to nine waist bags and they’re bulging, probably filled with bombs.” The scout, hiding in the treetops, looked down at Tang Zheng’s group through the gaps in the leaves, chilling in fear.
Despite this potential danger, they seemed unphased, casually sauntering as if they were enjoying a picnic.
The teenage girl among them even has a piece of chocolate in her mouth, looking around with fascination at every new animal or plant and screaming in excitement, clutching the young man’s arm beside her.
“These people are crazy.” The scout knew too well that their relaxed attitude wasn’t a ruse but a demonstration of extreme confidence in their own abilities.
Fearing that his teammates would charge into their deaths, he quickly added, “Don’t be impulsive.
They have a lot of spoils, but if we can’t grab them, it’s just as useless.”
“You’re getting soft and your observation skills are terrible.
Captain, I can see them now.
Those four women look like they’ve never experienced battle before.
There isn’t a single scratch on them and they seem to have zero vigilance.
I have no idea how they’ve survived so far.
But those two men, they’re covered in wounds.
I guess they must be the surviving members of a powerful team and managed to escape with the spoils of war.” A raspy voice growled through the communicator, “Regardless of what you guys do, I’m going to attack.
And that sexy lady with the Tang sword and the high school girl are mine.
No one can snatch them from me.”
“Captain, don’t listen to his nonsense.
If he’s wrong, we could die.” The scout panicked as he heard those words, but the captain stayed silent.
When he saw Tang Zheng’s group enter his field of vision, his greed was sparked.
“The woman with the Tang sword is really beautiful, and so is the housewife.
They also have lots of spoils of war.” The captain took a deep breath.
“Attack!
As always, whoever scores the first victory and gains the advantage for our team will get the most spoils.
Charge!”
“Kill!” With this shout, a man wearing military pants and a black stretch vest jumped out from the bushes and lunged at Yin Shangwu, who was about ten meters away.
At the same time, he threw a bomb.
The other team members also started to attack, aiming for targets no more than thirty meters away.
As they had been hiding silently, there would be no warning on the opponents’ radar.
They had been successful using this strategy to ambush gamers before.
“Stolen from us again.” The captain glanced at the beautiful Yin Shangwu and complained bitterly.
In his opinion, this battle was a foregone conclusion.
Every time his squad launched a deadly attack when the enemy least expected it, the enemies would instantly become disoriented.
Once a few grenades from their special forces killed an opponent, the rest would scatter in panic, leaving them an easy job to clear up the battlefield, torment captives, and hope for a counterattack.
They wouldn’t forget that these were all temporary teams with barely any basic trust.
When underpowered, the first instinct of everyone would be to flee.
Yet, the next moment, the captain’s bitter expression changed to bewilderment and then horror.
He almost fled because he saw the beautiful woman didn’t even bother to dodge.
She pulled out the Tang sword and with a flash, decapitated the special forces soldier.
Seeing the blood gushing from the severed neck, not only the captain, everyone shivered and froze in shock.
“This powerful?” The other members felt like they’d hit an invisible wall, stopping collectively.
Their battle cries died in their throats.
“Damn, what’s going on, is the radar broken?” Lin Weiguo was just startled before he waved his hands and hurled seven or eight bombs, aiming to stop the opponent’s attack first.
“Hehe, the prey has come to the door.” Tang Zheng was even more ruthless, deliberately letting a ferocious smile cross his face as he charged towards them fiercely and threw two incendiary bombs to block their retreat.
“Run now.” Not just the captain, the word ‘run’ popped up in the minds of the others too.
Thus, after a second’s delay, they scattered in panic, akin to ants scurrying from their nest after being doused with hot soup, without any hesitation.
Seeing this, the captain’s miserable face was full of tears.
He hadn’t expected his own team to crumble this quickly.
It just proved the saying—in a disadvantageous situation, only a fool wouldn’t run.
“What kind of people are they, who can keep their cool even when ambushed!” One scout player commented with lingering fear.
He thanked his stars he hadn’t run out, although he still tried to make himself as small as possible, hiding in the leaves, truly terrified by their ferocious performance.
“It’s a communicator, it seems there’s still good stuff in the supply box.” Tang Zheng stepped over a corpse, eyed it for a few moments, and then cut off the totem seal on the back of its hand.
“I’ve always said, our luck is actually average, not as good as these lucky bastards.”
“Is it over just like that?” After seven days, Zhang Yan finally threw her third bomb since they arrived on the island.
But it had barely given her a thrill before she saw the retreat of a group of players, which left her feeling disgruntled.
“If you’re bored, just play with the bombs.
We have plenty.
Apart from the totem seals, don’t bother with anything else, it’s a waste of time.” Seeing Pang Meiqin going over to check the three corpses, Tang Zheng quickly stopped her.
“Better safe than sorry.” The scout player wasn’t relaxed even after all the triangles on the radar moved away.
He was afraid they would perform a surprise comeback, so he waited another twenty minutes before sliding down the tree and coming to the battleground.
“Tsk, what a mess.
This is what you get for not trusting my judgment.” Looking at his comrades who, half an hour ago were alive and well but now were battered corpses buried in the rotting leaves and soil, the scout player sneered, and with a kick, sent the special forces soldier’s head flying, “That’s what you get for showing off.”
The scout player turned to leave but was stopped in his tracks by the sight of one of the corpses.
Rubbing his eyes, his face was a mixture of disbelief and delight.
“Are you serious?
They are so extravagant they don’t even clean up the battlefield?” The scout player saw that the waist bags on each corpse hadn’t been taken and they hadn’t even bothered to check what type of bombs were in them.
He couldn’t help but feel even more intrigued about the team that just left.
Remembering the intense explosion sounds earlier and their overflowing waist bags, the scout player suddenly understood.
Indeed, they didn’t lack these things, which only made him more jealous and envious.
“Why can’t I be part of their team?
These guys must have collected enough totem seals by now.” The scout player grumbled, then his face broke into a grin as he set about searching the corpses, “At least this benefits me.”
Tang Zheng had absolutely no idea that the bombs he left behind had helped a cautious player complete his mission and return to human society.
Right now, he was really frustrated with the lack of progress, especially when he noticed one triangle stubbornly trailing them at a distance of 280 meters on the radar.
His mood worsened and he decided to give this guy a taste of bitterness.
