The freshmen, who had escaped from the chaotic battle and understood their current situation, gradually began to disperse and fight on their own.
As time went by, people gradually realized the real fun of this competition game.
After all, there are only a few people on the field who can be called sharpshooters. Most people, even after training, can only be considered to be able to hold a gun at best, and are still far from being able to aim and shoot.
But once the bullet is fired, it cannot be turned back. Whether it hits or not, it will make some noise, and it is normal to alert the enemy. How can the opponent be like a target and let others aim at him and eliminate him? He must resist.
And if the opponent is just as strong, the situation will probably turn into a fight between weaklings.
If there were a few more waves of people waiting to take advantage of the situation, how could these people miss the opportunity to pick up the bargain
So the freshmen who were separated from the visible battle zone gradually moved to the uneven jungle, which actually turned into another kind of melee. If you don't want to be eliminated, you have to rely on your accuracy and see who can survive better.
This is what a classmate, let’s call him “Xiaowu”, thought.
He was one of the people who "survived" the chaotic war zone at the beginning. He was a mecha major, and although his shooting skills were not high, his second awakening mental power level was barely acceptable, and his senses were very strong.
So even though we were in a state of confusion at the beginning, we were able to hold on, and when two war zones collided, we escaped from the chaotic area and successfully came here.
Apart from those who would attack him as soon as they saw him in an attempt to score points with him, or those whose shooting skills were terrible and who would team up everywhere in the hope of finding a sucker to cheat on, he didn't meet any reliable teammates, so he came here alone.
He had been holed up in some rough patch of woodland for some time now.
This place imitates the typical landform and ecological environment of Planet 732. The forest is either filled with trees dozens of meters tall or dense bushes several meters high. The terrain is also high and low, covered by grass or bushes.
So if you walk in it, you must be very careful, otherwise you may fall into a big pit and can't climb out. It is also easy to be exposed, which is equivalent to sending your location to others. If you can't fight back or hide quickly, you will be at the mercy of others.
However, Xiaowu was lucky. He quickly found a well-hidden position that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. There were two large rocks on the left and right sides, and a few dark bushes behind them, which were enough to cover the figure of the person inside. However, the space was a little narrow, and if you were not careful when moving, you would make some noise and easily expose your tracks.
Someone may ask, it sounds like if we start shooting, we might be exposed, but if we don't do anything and stay here, it's meaningless, so why does Xiaowu choose to stay here
The forest was completely silent. Trees were trees, stones were stones, and there was not even a trace of breeze in the air. The space was filled with a stagnant atmosphere. If Xiao Wu had not seen it with his own eyes before, he would have doubted whether there was anyone nearby.
Suddenly, a different sound came from this quiet jungle.
Someone is coming!
Xiao Wu's eyebrows jumped, and he stared at the direction of the sound. The hand holding the gun tightened involuntarily, his thumb slowly stroked the handle, and his index finger pulled the trigger, but he did not act immediately.
Obviously, the newcomers did not realize that they had been exposed to the hunter's eyes. Xiao Wu could still roughly judge from the subtle movements that this was a team of several people, and the footsteps were very chaotic.
Unfortunately, not alone.
He was a little disappointed with the result, but he did not relax his hands. He even restrained his breathing more and stared closely at the traces of the sound.
It’s not the right time yet... Not yet... These guys are really too patient!
Just when he could no longer hold back, a gunshot suddenly rang out from the bushes, right at the place in the middle where the sound came from.
Xiaowu was shocked, here it comes!
The sound of the gunshot was like turning on a button. There were responses from several directions in all directions, as if everyone wanted to take advantage of the chaos to attack.
But for some reason, Xiaowu still didn't make a move. His index finger was on the trigger, tightening it and then suddenly releasing it, back and forth several times.
The group in the middle that was under siege seemed to be completely hit, and there was no movement. Then suddenly, the people in that group started to move around like crazy, and even through the thick bushes, one could feel the agitation below.
The lurkers who were "shooting randomly" around were silent for a moment, and then there was another round of shooting that was more intensive and fierce than before, this time from all directions. The sound that came one after another made it impossible to tell which direction the gunshots came from, and which direction they might come from the next moment.
—But this is not what Xiaowu wants.
Suddenly, the movement seemed to move to another area without warning, and stopped about a few meters to the left of Xiaowu. Although it only bounced for a moment, it triggered dozens of gunshots.
Amidst several sounds that were not far away, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up slightly, and he lowered his body further, but the gun barrel moved at some point and aimed at a direction very close to the right side.
Then when the opponent fires the second shot, fire it out.
Because they were very close, Xiao Wu could even hear the "thump" of the person falling, and he felt a little happy.
Finally he caught it! He had been feeling something was wrong, as if there was a presence nearby, and it was very close. But the other party was obviously very good at hiding, and no matter how hard he tried to sense it, he couldn't catch it accurately. Xiao Wu didn't dare to take action, and he missed several rounds of such opportunities.
He had resisted the urge to attack just now because he was waiting for the other party to lose control first, and finally he caught the lurking poisonous snake.
As for the other lurkers, they were either too far away to shoot accurately at him, or their shooting skills were so poor that they couldn't even handle a small team of several people and could only shoot randomly... He just needed to be careful to avoid these people.
But it was strange, how could it have taken so long? It should have been three minutes... Why hadn't there been any rescue ships to take them out? Did they miss the target? Xiao Wu felt strange for no reason.
Then, as if in response to the strange feeling in his heart, a burst of gunfire rang out in the jungle that had returned to peace.
However, this time it seemed different from the previous random shooting. Each shot seemed to have been carefully calculated and landed slowly and steadily.
Xiaowu subconsciously realized that something was wrong and wanted to escape from the only retreat route at the rear. The next moment, the hairs on his back stood up and his spine felt cold.
