Chapter 128: Training

Zhou Yue only had two bullets in his hand, while the two opposite fired shot after shot as if bullets were free, having already fired several rounds!

Disadvantage.

He is now at an absolute disadvantage!

Zhou Yue realized that if the standoff continued, only he would die; hiding here any longer was pointless, so he slowly lowered his gun, raised both hands, and shouted loudly: "I surrender!"

"I can give you all my supplies! Don't kill me!"

"You surely know that the loot obtained after killing a player is random! I can give you all the supplies on my person, as long as you don't kill me!"

It's indeed tempting, but this kind of rhetoric... Cheng Shuili had heard it during the Newbie Protection Period.

That person spoke more sincerely than Zhou Yue, but now, what was that person's name? Cheng Shuili has forgotten.

She gave a light cough and shouted: "Kick your gun away!"

Zhou Yue hesitated a bit, but also realized this might be the only way to survive; however, the gun was crucial, so after frowning and thinking for a while, he proposed a condition: "You promise you won't kill me!"

Cheng Shuili let out a light scoff, her attitude especially firm: "You have no right to negotiate terms with us."

That's harsh to hear!

But that's the fact!

Zhou Yue eventually kicked the gun away with his foot.

The gun slid to the center of the road, its metal casing gleaming coldly in the morning light. Ailin quickly stepped forward, picked up the gun, and smoothly removed the magazine, leaving only the last bullet.

She turned her head to look at Cheng Shuili, and Cheng Shuili likewise looked at her.

This kind of thing is Ailin's specialty, right?

Cheng Shuili really lacks experience!

"Now, come out slowly," Ailin, having received the signal, immediately began instructing, her voice carrying an undeniable pressure: "Raise both hands high, let me see every move you make."

Indeed professional!

Xinxue poked her head out from behind the vehicle, her face still pale.

She watched Zhou Yue slowly walk out from behind cover, the wound on his right shoulder staining his light-colored T-shirt red.

The man who had been arrogant and domineering last night now had eyes full of panic.

"I really know I was wrong," Zhou Yue's voice trembled, "I was just impulsive......"

"Cut the nonsense!" Ailin snapped, her gun barrel unwaveringly aimed at Zhou Yue's forehead.

Cheng Shuili noticed her index finger already on the trigger. At this distance, with Ailin's marksmanship, a miss was impossible.

"Take off the backpack and slowly place it on the ground." Ailin's command was concise and icy.

Zhou Yue's forehead beaded with cold sweat as his left hand trembled while undoing the backpack strap in front of his chest.

Just as the backpack was about to slip off, he suddenly sprang up! He drew a dagger from his right rear waist and lunged at the nearest Ailin!

"Watch out!" Xinxue's scream pierced the air.

"Bang!"

Ailin pulled the trigger the instant Zhou Yue moved, and Cheng Shuili did the same!

Two bullets—one precisely pierced his right scapula, the other struck his abdomen.

Zhou Yue staggered and fell to his knees, blood gushing from the two bullet holes. He looked up in disbelief, seeing Cheng Shuili's gun still smoking.

"You... don't keep your word..." Zhou Yue spat blood with each word.

"Tsk."

Cheng Shuili was truly speechless—still trying to shift blame even as he was dying?

Xinxue climbed out of the vehicle, only relaxing after confirming Zhou Yue was truly dead; her eyes sparkled as she looked at Ailin, then at Cheng Shuili, and finally said to Cheng Shuili: "Boss, you're too awesome!"

Cheng Shuili smiled and modestly said: "Just average."

Xinxue turned to the Ailin holding the revolver nearby and said: "You must be Sister Ami Li, right?"

"I've got great face—boss and sister both showed up!"

"Not bad."

Cheng Shuili glanced at Xinxue—she was quite tall, only a bit shorter than Cheng Shuili, now wearing a work uniform that looked carefree and handsome.

Just moments ago she had been shrinking like a turtle inside the vehicle; now this handsome appearance instantly lost a third of its appeal.

However, Cheng Shuili didn't blame her—bullets have no eyes, so her staying out of the fray was the right call.

It's just a pity—Cheng Shuili's gaze fell on Zhou Yue's still-present corpse... she never got to ask what this person had wanted from her.

After a few words, everyone returned to their respective vehicles.

It wasn't that there was nothing to say; it was really too hot.

The remaining two also saw the message and posted several concerned remarks in the group.

【Wan Yi】: All good? I was just washing dishes and didn't see Xinxue's message.

【Liang Shan Bo Yu Zhu Ying Lai】: I just woke up, Xinxue sis, you okay? @Xin Xue Chuji!

【Wan Yi】: @Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji, how's Wu Ya doing?

【Wan Yi】: @Ai Mi Li, did Ailin go too?

【Xin Xue Chuji】: I didn't die hahaha!

The two who had just been worried: "……"

Xinxue gave a rough rundown; the part where she had been hiding like a turtle was supplemented by Ailin.

After this, Ailin can be considered fully integrated into the team.

Cheng Shuili fanned herself in the vehicle, watching their chat, waiting for the road merger to end.

Next time, just send Ailin alone for this kind of thing.

She can totally handle it.

Especially, we must protect Qi Wan Yi; the cook absolutely cannot have any problems!

Cheng Shuili only has one Designated Player Duel Card left, and for now can't give it to Ailin.

This time Xinxue just got lucky, guessing correctly who came to kill her. If she hadn't guessed right, today might not have ended this way.

Looking at it this way, that card is still quite tricky.

No.

We can't stay so lax.

After thinking it over, Wuya Lao Da decided on the squad's first group activity!

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: @Ai Mi Li, I remember you used to be a soldier, right? How many years did you serve?

【Ai Mi Li】: Eight years.

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: Great, you can be the instructor now.

【Wan Yi】: Instructor?

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: Exactly, I hope today's incident won't happen again. Every one of you is important to our team; anything happening to anyone is something I don't want to see.

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: How to use this card, Ailin has already explained it clearly. Today Xinxue knew who was coming to kill her; next time we might not know who it is—are we just going to wait to die?

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: Starting today, our squad will conduct special training. Ailin's abilities are obvious; having her as instructor couldn't be better. Ailin can teach combat, teach how to use firearms, and you, Ailin, can decide what specifics to learn. The only thing is, they must learn how to kill; they only need to learn how to survive.

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: Any more questions, everyone?

【Ai Mi Li】: I have no problem.

【Wan Yi】: No problem, it's just that you suddenly speaking so much is really not something we're used to.

【Liang Shan Bo Yu Zhu Ying Lai】: My sports have never been great, so I'll have to trouble you, Sister Ailin!

【Xin Xue Chuji】: Today really scared me to death, luckily Lao Da and Sister Ailin came! I also think we should learn some self-defense stuff; Lao Da's consideration is really thorough.
