Chapter 217: First Battle at Nightfall

~7 min read 1,360 words

At night, Xuebao drove the Tricycle speeding along the road, while Zhu Zhiquan observed the Map Channel in the carriage, where a red dot and a green dot represented the positions of other players and himself, respectively.

"Ajiu..." Zhao Yuxin poked her head out from her sleeping bag, "If you can't hold on, you can call me. Anyway, with the Game System acting like this, basically no players need to sleep anymore."

Zhu Zhiquan nodded slightly and continued to stare at the map to prevent any other accidents.

Zhao Yuxin then complained, "Sigh~ This system is becoming less and less human! Even without looking at the World Channel, I know it must be in an uproar! I wonder how Ling Xi and the others are doing?"

Zhu Zhiquan listened quietly on the side. After Zhao Yuxin finished venting her emotions, she personally opened the panel, preparing to share Zhu Zhiquan's idea of only killing one person on the World Channel.

Inside the World Channel, the situation was just as Zhao Yuxin had guessed; almost all players were posting, and both sides were basically expressing strong dissatisfaction with the new announcement released by the Game System.

Station Master Who Loves Lifting: "I @##@%$... this damn @&%&$... I'm about to fall asleep in my car, what are you doing in the middle of the night, you system!"

Caoxie Meimei: "Sigh~ Even if we are killed by other players, all the blueprints on us will drop. If our teammates also die, then half of our supplies will be lost. If that's the case, what is the point even if we don't truly die!"

Yangguang Xujie: "Everyone, um... can we agree to only kill one person when we meet? That way, even if the blueprints drop, we can take them back, and we won't have to lose half of our supplies. Don't you think?"

Xihai Langzi: "@Yangguang Xujie, I think what you said makes a lot of sense."

Little Fan of Grandpa De: "It makes sense, but I don't know how many people are willing."

Ice of the North Ocean: "I don't care if others are willing or not, but I agree with this idea!"

……………

Seeing that so many players were willing, Zhao Yuxin felt a glimmer of comfort in her heart.

"I just don't know if these players will really do this when they meet offline?" Zhao Yuxin slumped on her sleeping bag and shook her head, "Forget it, let's take it one step at a time."

As the Tricycle continued to drive, they soon encountered a group of players. Under the mutual illumination of the headlights, the front profiles of each other's Tricycles were revealed in full.

Zhu Zhiquan extended the Five-Star Sword out the window, using the reflection of the Five-Star Sword to judge the characteristics of the opponent's Tricycle.

Although one could see by raising the rear window between the carriage and the driver's seat, having Xuebao sitting in the driver's seat obstructed the view, and since it couldn't speak, it couldn't ask questions. Sticking one's head out was also easy to be ambushed, so this method was the safest.

Zhao Yuxin also leaned over and saw the reflection in the Five-Star Sword in Zhu Zhiquan's hand: it was equipped with a cannon muzzle the size of a head, and windows that looked like Sunglasses. From the outside, it was hard to judge the driver's appearance, and the vehicle's development direction was the Magic Route.

Just as Zhao Yuxin was about to speak, she noticed a speaker rising above the opponent's vehicle, and then a girl's voice came out: "Opposite players, it's still early before the half-hour mark, do you want to come out and talk?"

Zhao Yuxin's eyes narrowed, and she said to Zhu Zhiquan, "Ajiu, what if they are thinking of tricking us out and then killing us when we aren't paying attention!"

Zhu Zhiquan retracted the Five-Star Sword, thought for a moment, and asked Zhao Yuxin to release the Psychic Mushroom Grass.

"What do you need the Psychic Mushroom Grass for?" Zhao Yuxin said as she released the Psychic Mushroom Grass.

Zhu Zhiquan: "Because the sword of the Psychic Mushroom Grass is made of grass, and it's small in size, so it's not that easy to be discovered. As for me, I'll go out and meet them first."

Zhao Yuxin: "No, aren't you afraid this is a trap!?"

Zhu Zhiquan gave a contemptuous smile, put on his full set of equipment, and swaggered out of the carriage, arriving between the two Tricycles.

"This guy's old habit is acting up again." Zhao Yuxin held her forehead, but still ordered the Psychic Mushroom Grass to prepare for battle, while also releasing other Combat Plants.

The players on the opposite side saw Zhu Zhiquan walk out alone, but they did not stand out to communicate with Zhu Zhiquan and the others as they had said themselves.

Instead, they opened a window in the carriage and shot an arrow at Zhu Zhiquan. However, the moment they opened the window, Zhu Zhiquan sensed something was wrong and had already dodged in advance.

After the opponent made a move, Zhu Zhiquan used a bit of Magic Power and swung the Xuangang Spear to release a Charged Slash at the opponent's Tricycle.

Boom!

The Charged Slash landed on the opponent's Tricycle but was blocked by a transparent shield on the surface.

"Guardian Goddess Statue!" As soon as the battle started, Zhao Yuxin used Zhu Zhiquan's method to observe the fight and saw at a glance that the opponent also had a Guardian Goddess Statue.

At this moment, Zhu Zhiquan drew the Spirit Valley Longsword and activated its Spirit Valley Music skill, causing the opponent's attack to have a gap, then quickly arrived at the open window and threw an Explosive Chili inside.

Boom!

"Wow! So spicy! It's burning me to death! Quickly activate the Purification Goddess Statue! Quickly!" A woman with a local accent urged, and soon Zhu Zhiquan clearly saw the floating Chili Dust inside being diluted.

Zhu Zhiquan immediately realized that there might be danger and immediately slid to the other side of the Tricycle.

Immediately after, a bomb was thrown out, landing where he had been standing before.

In the carriage, Zhao Yuxin, watching this battle, had a grave expression. She and Zhu Zhiquan both knew very well the protective ability provided by the Guardian Goddess Statue, so Zhao Yuxin concluded that Zhu Zhiquan had basically no hope of winning alone.

So Zhao Yuxin ordered Xuebao: "Xuebao, drive quickly, let's ram them to death!"

Xuebao received the order and immediately stepped on the accelerator, ramming hard into the opponent's Tricycle.

After this collision, Zhao Yuxin overheard the opponent's conversation through her Bat Wing Ear, and judging by the volume of the sound, the opponent definitely had equipment similar to radio communication.

"Nini, help me check how much energy the Guardian Goddess Statue's ability has lost?"

"Damn! It deducted over nine hundred in one go, damn it, today's offerings are all gone at once!"

"So fierce! No, our cannon can't be used on Blue Star, and the opponent's Tricycle has Spikes, we can't out-ram them, let's run quickly."

"Okay, anyway, it's still early before the half-hour mark, at worst we'll find weaker ones."

Zhao Yuxin was still wondering how the opponent would get rid of their Tricycle, after all, both cars were pressed together now, and she really didn't know how they would break away.

During the wrestling of the two Tricycles, Zhu Zhiquan had already returned to his own Tricycle carriage.

Zhao Yuxin was just about to say what she had overheard when the opponent's Tricycle reversed along the direction of their Tricycle's movement. Zhu Zhiquan immediately realized something and shouted immediately: "Baobao, turn left!"

Unfortunately, this shout came too late; the opponent had already turned the handle sharply along the force, and then the opponent's car drifted to their rear.

Zhu Zhiquan wanted to take the opportunity to jump onto the opponent's car, but the opponent's car released a kind of pink mist, which made Zhu Zhiquan pause, and he could only watch helplessly as the opponent successfully escaped.
