Chapter 221: The Battle of One Night (Part 3)

After listening to Zhu Zhiquan's explanation, Zhao Yuxin nodded and said, "So that's how it is. Then, are you confident you can break out of their encirclement?"

"Break out of the encirclement?" Zhu Zhiquan couldn't help but sneer, "That's too simple. In a moment, I'll take you to wipe them all out."

Zhao Yuxin: "Hmph! Who needs you to take me! Even if there were a hundred times more of these players, I could still handle them with ease! By the way, did you capture a live one to question?"

Zhu Zhiquan: "No."

Zhao Yuxin: "Look at that, without me, you're prone to making mistakes, aren't you? If you ask me, you should have……………"

Zhu Zhiquan: "Alright, now is not the time for bragging. It's better to enter the ancient town early so it's easier to counterattack the pursuers."

Zhao Yuxin: "Fine, but it feels like we've been chased around this whole time. How strange～"

Zhu Zhiquan: "That only proves we're easy targets. If we could easily crush them, why would it have to be like this!?"

Zhao Yuxin: "Hmm~ what you say makes some sense. Then what is the background of that group behind us? Do you need me to help out on the side?"

"No need, you go back to sleep first." Zhu Zhiquan returned to the driver's seat and restarted the ignition, while Zhao Yuxin yawned and crawled back into her sleeping bag.

More than ten kilometers away, after Wang Ce encountered the Landmine Pinecone placed on the road by Zhu Zhiquan, he gathered the other members of the Player Group nearby. While clearing the landmines along the way, he pondered what to do next.

When Wang Ce saw the dozen or so members who had disappeared on the Map Channel, he slammed the table in anger. He held his forehead tightly, but a ferocious smile was hidden at the corners of his mouth.

It startled his assistant beside him, and the hand holding the cigar for him trembled involuntarily.

"What are you doing! So slow!" Wang Ce snatched the cigar from the assistant's hand and pulled out a lighter to ignite it.

While Wang Ce was lighting the cigar, the assistant leaned over and asked, "Regiment Leader, this Zhu Zhiquan is so formidable, and we can't recruit him or his teammates. Why don't we just let it go?"

Wang Ce took a puff of the cigar and rebuked, "What do you know? This guy surnamed Zhu is already this powerful; if we just let them go now, wouldn't that be giving them room to develop?"

The assistant's legs kept trembling, and he then suggested, "But if this continues, our people will suffer heavy losses, or even all be killed in battle. Anyway, those two don't even know it was us who attacked them, so why don't…………"

"Enough!" Wang Ce raised his hand to interrupt, "It is precisely because those few people surnamed Zhu don't know who attacked them that we must focus our strikes on them!

Furthermore, the system announcement said that every half hour, it will automatically process groups that haven't killed other players during that period. How many players' heads do you think it will take to satisfy that for our dozens of people?

If we hadn't successfully raided a Player Group within this half hour, these guys would be the first to take us down! At that point, not only would all our blueprints be gone, but the basic supplies and cohesion of the entire Nine Platforms Immortal Group would be cut in half!

With an expert like Zhu Zhiquan here, don't I have a reasonable way to reduce the number of mouths to feed?"

The assistant suddenly realized and hurriedly praised, "Regiment Leader is wise! Then should I think of a way for you to collect everyone's supplies?"

"You are teachable. Tell me about it." Wang Ce leaned to the side, listening with satisfaction.

The assistant immediately whispered in his ear, which made Wang Ce applaud in admiration.

At the same time, Zhu Zhiquan had already driven the Tricycle into an ancient town. He immediately directed the plants to hide their forms and placed Landmine Pinecones at the main entrances and exits himself to ensure the pursuers could not easily enter.

After doing all this, Zhu Zhiquan knew that with the Map Channel function, no matter how well he hid, it would be useless. He simply sat in the carriage, watching the road along the way with cold eyes.

The night wind blew across his cold, stern face. The entire ancient town seemed like a battlefield deliberately chosen for him by the heavens; not a single resident could be seen on the streets, and not a single vehicle could be seen on the road.

The night wind was like a killer carrying a trace of murderous intent, causing the moon in the sky to quietly hide behind the clouds, as if afraid of the coming battle.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Zhiquan felt the ground trembling violently. He looked up and saw a large group of Tricycles with various designs driving toward him.

Zhu Zhiquan did not stand up, only watching the approaching Tricycles with cold eyes.

Wang Ce, in the rearmost vehicle, looked at the Tricycle where Zhu Zhiquan and the others were and immediately ordered an attack on the Player Group Channel.

The players then drove their respective Tricycles toward Zhu Zhiquan. Some of them opened fire on Zhu Zhiquan's vehicle, while a few who understood their Regiment Leader's true intentions silently kept their speed to a minimum.

Facing the sparse artillery fire from the crowd, Zhu Zhiquan dismissed it with disdain and stepped on the accelerator to break out of the coverage area.

At this moment, the players saw Zhu Zhiquan driving and frantically stepped on their accelerators, wanting to ram into him head-on.

Suddenly, the player in the lead felt they had run over something, and immediately after, explosions rang out one after another. A large number of Tricycles were sent flying by the Landmine Pinecones.

Those behind realized something and wanted to retreat, but at this moment, continuous explosions also occurred in the rear. In an instant, more than a dozen players were sacrificed.

"Don't be afraid! Being killed by other players on Blue Star doesn't mean you actually die! Everyone, charge!" Seeing the members in front suffer a sudden attack, Wang Ce directed everyone to counterattack while ordering his assistant to reverse the vehicle quickly.

With the Regiment Leader's command, the group charged toward Zhu Zhiquan's direction again. But at this moment, Vines with hooks suddenly rose from the ground, overturning four or five Tricycles.

Immediately after, two Arrows hit the overturned Tricycles, triggering a violent explosion.

In an instant, the crowd fell into chaos. At this time, a player skilled in perception suddenly shouted: "Everyone, be careful! Another wave of attacks is coming!"

No sooner had the words fallen than dozens of Arrows landed on the outermost Tricycles. Among them, several Arrows had immense power, easily piercing the armor of the Tricycles.

Moreover, mixed in with these incoming Arrows were some swords made of grass and fruits, constantly reaping the players' health points.

Before everyone could figure out where the attacks were coming from, Zhu Zhiquan activated Hell Lament and the Spirit Valley music of the Spirit Valley Longsword, covering a radius of five hundred meters with mental attacks and music that induced fatigue.

Even Wang Ce, who was hiding in the back watching the show, was affected, which made him break out in cold sweat. "Damn it, even I'm being attacked. Retreat, retreat quickly! If we die, the blow to the entire Player Group will be huge!"

After his assistant recovered, thinking that the Regiment Leader held the core blueprints of the entire team as well as a large amount of the team's supplies, he immediately drove the Tricycle and retreated continuously.

Watching the members of the Nine Platforms Immortal Group in front being covered by explosions and arrows one after another, Wang Ce became worried instead. "I hope my subordinates aren't wiped out; otherwise, how will I plunder other players' resources next!"

Thinking of this, Wang Ce began to get serious, directing everyone to break through the area covered by firepower.

The remaining people received the Regiment Leader's order and prepared to break out of the coverage area.

At this time, Zhu Zhiquan controlled the Five-Star Sword to fly above the members of the Nine Platforms Immortal Group and dropped Explosive Chilis among them. Instantly, the group preparing to retreat was wailing incessantly from the Chili Dust.
