Chapter 409: 393 Yi: Feeling Like Being Slaughtered Like a Pig

“You! Fuck! Have you lost all your humanity?!”

Yi was standing at a respawn point, fifty-eight meters away from the entrance of the Continental Hotel, not moving at all, but cursing wildly.

There were many other players around him, doing the same thing.

They had no choice because their respawn point had been surrounded by a large crowd of players. If they dared to step out of the safe area, they would be immediately killed.

However, the safe space of the respawn point was very small, and could only accommodate up to ten people at most when they squeezed together.

That was usually enough.

But now, a large number of players had died in this area, and every few seconds someone would be forcefully sent back to life here. Accordingly, a new person would be squeezed into the safe zone, naturally pushing someone else out of it.

Then the players surrounding the respawn point would immediately open fire and kill the person who had been pushed out.

So the players would once again revive at the respawn point.

Then another person would be pushed out and killed again…Of course, players who died elsewhere might also be pushed out simultaneously, resulting in two or even three people being squeezed out at once.

This was becoming a vicious cycle.

“Damn!” After cursing, Yi found himself pushed out of the safe zone.

At the next moment—”bang!”, “bang!”, “bang!”, “bang!”, “bang!”…

He was hit by countless bullets at the same time.

After being resurrected again, Yi couldn’t help but think: how did he end up in such a miserable situation?

First, the Continental Hotel was attacked by bandits. He escaped the first round of shooting and immediately started rallying his brothers to help.

In order to ensure that the help arrived quickly, he specifically invited players who were nearby or even logged out in hotel rooms. The arrival of these people quickly turned the tide.

Just as they got there, the bandits had rushed into the lobby of the Continental Hotel with their powerful weapons and started another indiscriminate shooting.

The players and NPCs hiding behind the sofas, tables, chairs, and plants all had no way to escape.

A black NPC who had been standing at the hotel reception desk and had been rumored to have a significant background pulled out a gun to fight back and protect the dignity of the hotel.

However, he was instantly riddled with bullets…

Yi and the other surviving players were much smarter. They dared not show their faces without finding solid cover.

It wasn’t until the first group of players armed to the teeth came down from the upstairs rooms to help that the situation finally improved.

At the same time, Yi’s reinforcements arrived, surrounding the bandits from outside the hotel.

The chaos immediately escalated!

Feeling more confident, Yi became more active, not only fighting back but also shouting, “You’re surrounded!”

“Unfortunately, you don’t have the chance to surrender! Come and die quickly!”

Utilizing his strong combat senses and seizing opportunities, he successfully claimed a kill.

However, he quickly realized that the reward task had no change. The expected (1/20) did not appear on the progress, which remained at (0/20).

Yi was very annoyed, turning to look at the reward board of the Continental Hotel, “I fucking killed him right in front of you, and you won’t pay me?”

“How can you not pay unless I cut off an ear as proof? This is the 21st century! Can we be a little more civilized?!”

Soon, more complaints arose, “Did anyone complete the reward task? Why haven’t I completed it?”

“Same here! What’s going on?”

“Same, but my killer ranking just jumped up by 1318! I just checked the records, and I’ve scored 100 kills!”

“Bullshit! Do you see a hundred people here, huh?”

“Bullcrap! You haven’t seen me dominating outside the casino last night!”

Just as Yi was listening to the commotion, [Combat Sensing] suddenly gave an alarm, and he quickly threw himself to the ground to avoid danger.

At first, he thought it was a stray bullet, but then more bullets came flying at him!

Yi had no choice but to crouch and move with his arms covering his head, all the while shouting, “Wrong target! Wrong target! I’m not a bandit! We have no enmity!”

But his cries didn’t help him out of this predicament; the opponents not only didn’t stop but even shouted, “Yi, you’re my idol! Look at me!”

“Ah, dammit! I meant to say you’re my idol!”

“It’s a rare chance to meet, please let me take your head!”

“Screw you!” Yi couldn’t resist the overwhelming odds, leaving only a curse before he was killed again.

Upon the moment of resurrection, he suddenly realized: wasn’t the respawn point supposed to be at the hotel entrance?

However, after coming back to life, he found that the location of the respawn point had changed.

He and several masked bandits all respawned together, more than fifty meters away from the Continental Hotel.

A system prompt appeared in his field of view, “The Continental Hotel is under attack and has become a battle zone. The respawn point function is temporarily disabled and will be reactivated after the fighting ceases.”

Yi looked around at the circle of bandits who had respawned before him and suddenly felt that things were not looking good!

The circle of bandits also turned around at the same time, looking at Yi who was surrounded by them.

“Um, everyone, big brother…” Yi subconsciously swallowed, “Let’s talk it out…”

The player wearing the [Two Cake] mask spoke: “It was you just now, right? Shouting that we were surrounded and I’m pretty sure it was you who killed me! Now guess who’s surrounded?”

“Well, it’s just a game, a game…” Yi tried to explain, “It was an accident, not on purpose…”

Before he could finish, [San Tiao] had already pounced on him: “Waste no more words! Screw him!”

Seven bandits pounced at the same time!

“Damn!” Yi instantly felt overwhelmed by muscular men and was pressed down firmly on the floor.

In Cloud Dream’s protection, a player’s clothes can only be taken off by themselves, and there’s no need to worry about durability running out and clothes exploding in the safe zone.

So Yi wasn’t worried about his chastity.

But the problem was, he was live streaming!

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands or even millions of viewers, he was pressed down by seven brawny men—

How could he show his face in the future!

“Help! All you big brothers, show some mercy! Help— me— out—”

Luckily, Yi wasn’t alone. Some of the people he’d brought with him had been tailing the bandits on the main street, and they finally spotted Yi’s predicament and hurriedly came to his rescue.

But that wasn’t easy!

Yi and the bandits were wrestling inside the safe area of the respawn point, where bullets couldn’t enter.

To save Yi, one had to rush into the safe area.

But outside the respawn point, many enemies were already squatting and waiting to ambush people.

Although their main target was to ambush those who had just left the respawn point, they wouldn’t mind eating the meat handed to them if someone revealed their position approaching the respawn point.

This made the rescue very difficult.

As for committing suicide on the spot and then respawning to save him?

Yi’s live-streamer community said, “No way! That’s way too gay!”

Of course, there were also people saying, “If you, Yi, promise to learn from Yelang and do a high-quality cross-dressing live stream, I won’t hesitate to kill myself and save you!”

As soon as this person spoke, those who had originally planned to risk their lives to save Yi suddenly changed their minds and began to persuade Yi to cross-dress.

“You treacherous villains!” Yi felt like crying but had no tears.

He even began to consider whether being “pressed down by 7 brawny men” was worse or “putting on silicone and cross-dressing” was worse?

“Can’t you give me a manly choice?! Will it work if I save myself and perform a ‘cooking myself in an iron pot’ for you all?”

“Otherwise, how about biting a lighter?”

“Or holding a lightbulb?”

“What if I swallow a hand grenade?!”

In order not to cross-dress, Yi started to desperately raise the stakes.

“Deal!”

“Anyone who goes back on their word is a loser!”

“Here I come, my dearest anchor, I’m coming to save you!”

These outrageous promises finally touched the viewers, and they all started to rush up to save him.

A few minutes later.

The respawn point was overcrowded.

Yi finally got out of the miserable situation with the “muscular men all over him.”

But this was not because the viewers broke through the obstacles and saved him from his misery.

It was because so many people died on the way to save him that the respawn point became overcrowded, even squeezing the bandits out of the safe area.

The surrounding ambushers suddenly found, with delight, that the respawn point had become a conveyor belt constantly producing kills!

They didn’t need to do anything, just kill the players squeezed out of the safe area, and new players would naturally be squeezed out.

Simply pull the trigger and keep increasing their kill count.

It had become an assembly line operation!

In the crowd, Yi felt completely devastated, having made a bunch of ridiculous promises, yet he was still stuck at the respawn point, being killed like a pig…

He suddenly felt a little tired in his heart.
