Chapter 499: Bunker Terror (13)
"Stop!"
"what happened?"
Just as Han Zu's figure was twisting and turning in the corridor of the bunker and was about to disappear from the sight of the members of the Quack Doctor Society, Wu Zhitu suddenly called out to his teammates who were chasing him and asked them to stop.
"You suspect this is a decoy? Not a real player?"
"No, he is definitely a player, but the way he attacks, don't you think it's weird? Why is he using the crappy weapons in the dungeon?"
"You mean he's trying to lead us into a trap?"
"That's how it looks to me, anyway."
"Then are you still chasing?"
"We won't chase them anymore, but we won't go back either. Since that person wants to lure us into a trap, let's do the opposite. We can go around them from another route. Maybe we can get behind that team and surround them from the opposite direction."
The five players of the Quackery Club immediately stopped chasing, letting Han Zu's blurry back disappear into the complex bunker passage. According to the general direction he left, they took detours from different directions, preparing to ambush the possible teams in the opposite direction. In order not to give the other party time to react, they moved very fast, but they were not ready to attack as soon as they found the other party. During the conversation on the way about which team attacked them, they also roughly understood why the other party would make such an obvious and stupid move.
"Which team did you say attacked us just now?"
"I'm not sure about that, but what is certain is that the German army with a larger number of troops is probably still in the underground area."
"The remaining two teams are in different camps, and their numbers are similar. The other French team has only three people. According to our previous speculation, the remaining German team is also estimated to have three people, or one more. But the person who ambushed us just now was only one, and we didn't see the guy clearly, so naturally we have no way of guessing which team he was from."
"Wait, you mean the other team in each camp has fewer people than us?"
"Looking at the current situation, this is the case."
"Then is there a possibility that they also understand this situation and have formed an alliance since they are not numerically superior? After all, according to the rules of the dungeon, only one team from each camp can pass the level. Since they are not numerically superior, their chances of being eliminated are naturally greater."
"It's possible. Once the two teams form an alliance, their team will have at least six people, which gives them an advantage in numbers. This way, no matter which team they encounter first, they will be able to fight."
"But this alliance is very loose, right? Think about it, once they encounter one of the teams, take us for example. Even if we are defeated by this alliance, once we are eliminated, the team belonging to the French camp can directly pass the dungeon. They can directly end the alliance and choose to leave. There is no need to help the other team at all."
"But if that's the case, won't the other team attack them?"
"It's possible, but the likelihood is very low. If they fight among themselves, there will definitely be casualties or temporary loss of combat capability. In this case, take the French camp as an example. If they win, it doesn't matter, they can just run away. But even if the German team wins, they are already at a numerical disadvantage, so it will be even more impossible for them to defeat the other team with a numerical advantage. Therefore, this alliance will only last until there is only one team left in one camp."
"If you say so, then I probably know why the person who attacked us just now did that."
"What do you mean?"
"The choice of weapons. That person used the lowest-level ordinary firearm bullets to attack. It wasn't even a heavy weapon, just a pistol. Even Zhao Mingkai, who has the lowest defense among us, wouldn't be injured by this level of attack. As for the poison gas grenade, although it can indeed cause damage to those of you who don't have anti-gas means, the damage value is no more than single digits. Since that person has discovered our position, he can attack with normal weapons. Even if he can't reduce our numbers, at least one of us will lose the ability to fight for a short time. If he really wanted to ambush us, why would he miss such a good opportunity to attack?"
"Didn't that person want to attack us?"
"I feel like, he seems to want to attract our attention, but why?"
Combining the discussion just now, Wuzhitu and Pei Lan quickly looked for the connection between various pieces of information, and soon they "figured out" the reason.
"I understand. They probably have formed an alliance just as Wuzhitu said, but they also know that this alliance is loose, so they must leave themselves a backup plan. At least that's what the team that ambushed us thought."
"They know that the alliance will only last until there is only one team left in one of the camps, so they must be thinking that they should first let this alliance encounter a team from the same camp as themselves. After they are eliminated, their own team will be able to pass the level. If you think in this way, I think the person who ambushed us should be from the German camp. I was wrong before. He didn't want to lead us into a trap, but to lead us away from the other French camp."
"But shouldn't their two teams be in the same location? Why was there only one person who ambushed us just now?"
"Maybe that person has some clone-like skills, and he released the clone to act. The real body should still be nearby."
"Then do we still need to go back? After all, according to your analysis, the other side has the advantage in numbers. Although there is only one person, we don't know their strength. It's always better to be careful."
"We still have to go. Only by destroying the other team in the same camp will we have no worries. After all, we are not sure what kind of style the German team in the underground area is. If they are the type who will attack anyone they see, if we can't defeat them, at least we can pass the level directly."
"But even if we want to go back, where will the Covenant team be hiding?"
Almost all players who have been to the area near the armory have a map of the area nearby. Combined with the locations they have been to, they can summarize an area they have been active in. Based on this map and everyone's discussion, they roughly proposed two possibilities.
"I think there are probably two options for their ambush location. The first option is one of the clearance locations. The armory is located in the center of the entire bunker. The distance from here to the two clearance locations is the same. According to the direction in which the person who ambushed us just now disappeared, it was the entrance of the bunker, which was the exit that was blown up before. Since he might be a player from the German camp and wants to lure us away, then this allied team must be hiding near the clearance location on the other side. In this way, as long as one player team from the same camp is eliminated, the other team from the same camp can pass the level immediately."
"What we need to do now is to confirm the enemy's position, and then ambush them to eliminate the players in the same French camp as us. This way, we can clear the level at any time, and there will be no pressure in exploring the dungeon next."
After confirming the course of action, the five members of the Quack Society immediately headed in the opposite direction of Han Zu's departure, preparing to ambush the "Covenant" team after locating them. However, they did not leave Han Zu's detection range, and with the help of the contractor's equipment, their conversation was heard clearly by Han Zu. The five members of the Quack Society were indeed not fools, but because of this, the current situation was not good for Han Zu.
However, according to their conversation, Han Zu learned that even if they defeated another team of the same camp, the people of the Quackery Association were not ready to clear the level immediately, so the situation was not too bad. But Han Zu would not completely rely on this. After all, their purpose of wanting to eliminate the players of the same camp first was to escape directly if they were defeated. So instead of expecting them to fight against another German camp team of seven people, it would be more practical to ambush them himself.
But Han Zu was also very clear that with the strength of his current alias, it would be impossible for him to destroy a team of seven people with these strengths that were not even considered abilities, even if it was a sneak attack. After all, in any copy, the team that could survive to the end could not be a bunch of fools. As a being with powerful strength himself, Han Zu was very clear how huge the gap in strength was.
Although the situation was bad, Han Zu would not give up, but he would not do anything stupid either. He began to think quickly, trying to find a way out of the situation. While thinking, he glanced at the system task panel of his Infinite City. The task that originally had no description seemed to have entered the next stage.
"Waiting for support: in progress."
"Estimated time of arrival of support: 1 hour and 43 minutes."
Han Zu suddenly remembered that in the copy of the Infinite City, some rules of the copy can be changed under certain circumstances. The task on his system is obviously not a normal main task. It is probably a hidden task. In most copies, hidden tasks will provide one or more options that are different from the normal way of passing the level. So his task may be such a task. Maybe as long as he waits for the arrival of support, he will not have to abide by the basic rule of the current copy that only one team from each camp can pass the level, and he can pass the level directly.
But after all, this is not certain, so Han Zu did not intend to leave it to luck. He still needed to do something. Before confirming what would happen after the reinforcements arrived, he could not let the two French camps meet for the time being. At least he had to prevent any of them from being destroyed.
With the contractor's equipment, Han Zu was able to lock onto the positions of the two French camps. Perhaps they were lucky and were moving closer to each other. While thinking about how to prevent the two sides from meeting, Han Zu immediately set off. Using the guidance of the contractor's equipment, he quickly bypassed the front of the two teams and arrived between them.
Through his powerful visual ability and the assistance of the contractor's equipment, Han Zu learned the hiding places of all the members of the two French teams. Through observation, he found that one of the three-man team was seriously injured and in poor condition, and would not be able to survive a possible battle.
On the other hand, the five members of the Quack Society were in very good condition and had even set up quite a few traps. It seemed that they had already locked on the opponent's approximate location and were just waiting for them to step into their trap.
The wounded in the three-man team suddenly gave Han Zu an idea. Under normal circumstances, if they found someone targeting them, they should evacuate first. After all, no one wants to give up directly. They must avoid the sharp edge first, or at least wait for their companions to recover a little before making plans. So now what Han Zu has to do is very simple, that is, to trigger the trap set by the quack doctor and others in advance. As long as their ambush is exposed, the other three-man team will definitely evacuate first. Then, as long as he delays the quack doctor for a while before they reach a safe place, he can achieve his goal of interfering with them.
As long as he interferes with the Quack Society enough times, they will eventually want to eliminate him first. After all, no one wants there to be someone shooting them in the back. Then at that time, Han Zu will be able to successfully lead them together with another German team. As long as he helps a little more and interferes with that German team, the Quack Society will have a chance to eliminate that German team, and he can pass the level directly.
Han Zu immediately started searching for a suitable opportunity. Through observation, he quickly found a suitable position. About thirty meters away from the three-man team, there were several skeleton soldiers and zombies hiding in the dark corner of the passage. If they followed the current route of the three-man team, they would be within the attack range of the skeleton soldiers and zombies in another minute.
After calculating their moving speed, when the three-person team was only 15 meters away from the skeleton soldiers and zombies, Han Zu immediately took out the grenade he had found in the armory before, pulled the ring, and threw it directly at the skeleton soldiers' feet. The grenade exploded the moment it touched the ground. The sound of the explosion spread quickly, echoing and spreading in the passage. This explosion not only attracted the attention of everyone in the two teams, but also successfully blew the skeleton soldiers out of their hiding place, exposing the ambush of the Quack Society.
"boom!!!"
The moment the three-man team discovered the ambush ahead, they immediately used their displacement skills and moved to a long distance. Seeing their figures disappear before their eyes, the five members of the Quack Doctors Association also knew that they had been tricked and that someone had deliberately exposed their ambush.
"Fuck! What a dog!!!"
Although they were furious, it was unwise to stay here any longer, so the five members of the Quackery Association left immediately to avoid being ambushed in the dark. Although they didn't know that the "team" that attacked them was actually just Han Zu.
