Chapter 100: The terror of the poison circle

Dormitory building, 8:00 AM.

The poison circle shrank rapidly, the green mist like a plague of locusts, raging crazily.

The vegetation along the way withered and decayed in just a few seconds.

If a player were eroded by the poison, it's not hard to imagine that even with a first-aid kit, it would be difficult to save themselves.

Su Yang stood by the window watching the green mist surging in from the sky, and said slowly, "It's time..."

Then he picked up the M416 assault rifle, put on his backpack, and said, "Let's go!"

Lin Yang packed up at an extremely fast speed and nodded solemnly.

Qin Weiyang's sleep was very light, and she had already woken up the first time she heard the sound of the poison mist sweeping across.

For her, she didn't need much equipment, just an submachine gun and enough bullets.

Bring one bottle each of energy drink and painkiller.

Things like grenades don't need to be brought.

Strength is the source of her confidence.

As soon as Su Yang pushed the door open, he saw that the players in the dormitory building had already started to run, their pace slightly faster than the poison circle.

"The shrinking speed will get faster and faster, we have to find a car," Lin Yang suggested.

"I know where there's a car," Qin Weiyang said.

"Is there enough time to go get it now?" Lin Yang asked.

"The car is inside the circle, the distance is relatively far."

"What location?" Su Yang's eyes flickered.

"Air-raid shelter."

Near the prison...

"Let's talk about the car later, get into the circle first."

The air-raid shelter is about fifteen kilometers away from the dormitory building, and it would take a normal person 1.5 to 2 hours just to run there.

Not to mention in a loaded state?

Su Yang drank a bottle of energy drink and ran out wildly.

Lin Yang didn't have much on him, barely able to keep up with Su Yang's speed in an excited state.

People running in front, poison chasing from behind.

If there's any slip-up along the way, all three could end up here.

Qin Weiyang looked at the two struggling, her willow brows furrowing, "I'll go ahead and scout the path."

Having said that, she flew up into the air and swept forward at an extremely high speed.

"It's so good to be able to fly," Lin Yang's eyes were filled with envy.

"Why don't you copy it and you'll have it?" Su Yang teased.

Lin Yang curled his lips, if he had the ability to kill Qin Weiyang, would he still need to team up?

He would have turned into a demon god in the final circle and slaughtered them all.

At this moment, Lin Yang suddenly caught a glimpse of a few small black dots moving in the distance.

"There seems to be someone over there!"

Su Yang picked up his gun upon hearing this and used the 4x scope to observe the southern direction.

He saw five people running for their lives toward the safe zone, the poison circle was a hundred meters behind them.

And the speed of the two was equivalent, maintaining a subtle distance.

But people will eventually get tired and cannot maintain full speed forever.

"They're dead for sure," Su Yang withdrew his gaze and continued running.

From the route, it's not hard to infer that these people are players from P City.

"Do they have watches?" Lin Yang asked.

"No."

"That shouldn't be..."

If they were players in the last hundred, they could have left before dawn and deployed in the safe zone in advance.

They didn't have a car to begin with, why wait until the last moment to leave?

Su Yang drank some water while running, looked down at his watch, and there were only 2 kilometers left to the safe zone.

"Take care of ourselves first before thinking about others."

The two continued to run, their physical strength dropped rapidly, and their speed was only half of what it was at the beginning.

Su Yang often exercised on weekdays and had insisted on running three kilometers every day since graduating from high school.

This distance was nothing in normal times.

But the tiredness came from the fact that he needed to carry a lot of things, plus the terrain was rugged and uneven.

Sometimes uphill, sometimes downhill, and he could even run into craters left by airplane bombings.

"Look at the bad idea you came up with, where are there any top-hundred players nearby?" Lin Yang panted, holding his waist and hanging behind.

"What's the rush, do you think players will stand on the side of the road holding a sign waiting for you to call them?" Su Yang said unhappily.

What Lin Yang was anxious about now wasn't the matter of gathering power.

Seeing the poison mist getting closer and closer, he could even smell a fishy stench emitted by the corroded plants.

"Where is Qin Weiyang? Said she was going to scout the path, why hasn't she come back for so long?" Lin Yang asked suspiciously.

Then a terrible thought appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but say, "She didn't die halfway, did she?"

Su Yang's brows were locked tight, he hadn't considered the situation of someone intercepting halfway before the plan.

Specifically choosing to leave when the poison circle started to shrink was to let that batch of players in the dormitory building go first to scout the situation.

In case someone was camping the circle edge, he could also respond in time.

Not to be caught off guard.

The two saw the safe zone right in front of them, and a series of gunshots suddenly came from their ears.

"There's someone in front!" Lin Yang faced a great enemy, subconsciously lying prone.

Su Yang found a large tree as cover and poked his head out to check the situation.

He saw an encounter battle breaking out in the middle of the plain, the number of people on both sides was similar, and the battle was intense.

And the location—

It was exactly at the junction of the safe zone and the poison circle.

"Sure enough..."

As expected, this group of people had been prepared long ago, attempting to intercept those who wanted to enter the circle.

This is a classic tactic of the battle royale game.

One side ambushed here, the other side stepped into the shooting range without knowing it.

Of course, this tactic has a drawback.

Encountering someone intervening in the fight is likely to fail.

"What do you say? Should we help?" Lin Yang crawled behind the tree and whispered.

"Help who?"

"Help the group with the watches."

"Why?" Su Yang turned his head and asked back.

"Didn't you say you wanted to gather power?" Lin Yang was suddenly confused.

"Just relying on the two of us?"

Oh right.

It seems like joining in would also be dangerous.

In case the firepower shifted to the two of them, in this plain lacking cover, wouldn't they be treated as targets?

"No need to take the initiative, whichever side wins will naturally inherit the ranking of the player with the watch," Su Yang said.

Suddenly, a fragrant wind blew toward them.

"There were a few sentries hidden in front, they've already been taken care of," Qin Weiyang wiped the blood on her hands with her clothes.

"Well done, let's go!" Su Yang saw she had returned safely and immediately set off.

The three ran to a restroom and observed the battlefield situation.

"What do you plan to do?" Qin Weiyang asked.

Winning the favor of players and gaining their trust is clearly not an easy thing.

If not done well, it might even lead to a fatal disaster.

They don't have so-called compassion.

"Persuade them."

"Huh?" Lin Yang was stunned, "Relying on a mouth?"

"Otherwise, rely on force?"

"I mean... it should just be you going to talk, we don't need to go," Lin Yang said cautiously.

"Of course it's the three of us together," Su Yang smiled.

Lin Yang's face turned pale, praying in his heart that that group of people would be easier to talk to.

Su Yang turned back, the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by gravity.

"No one is affected by 'Illusion'..."

Close observation revealed that there was no blue light in the eyes of these people.

This meant that the difficulty of negotiation was very high! ===== CHAPTER 101 =====
