Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

Chapter 120 - 120 – For Survival (2)

My colonists dispersed, except for Kat and Leva. The red-haired girl rubbed the fire stone, setting fire to the bottle with the oily fuse in Kat's hand. As soon as the bottle fuse caught fire, Kat threw it.

The bottle hit a man holding a gun, exploding and setting the man on fire. He moved wildly, screamed, and threw himself into the snow.

One of the machete-wielding men immediately removed the parka he was wearing and waved it over the burning person's body.

Within a few seconds, the machete wielder managed to extinguish the fire in that person's body, then pulled him into the house, while the others remained focused on observing the surroundings, having previously been distracted by that scene.

Damn, they must have been told by their guardian spirit to do something like that. My original plan was to attack when their attention was distracted.

But, there's still a way.

Kat had separated from Leva. Then, a few seconds later, an arrow blasted at one of the enemies. But, unfortunately, Kat's shot missed and only hit the snow.

I pressed the pause button, about to use the hover feature to check on my colonists. However, before that, I checked the situation around Leva to see if the knife-wielder was around that woman.

I don't want to miss something like that again. Several times my colonists have been in danger because I haven't paid much attention to my surroundings.

And I found a man a few meters behind Leva. The man was hiding behind a tree, almost out with his knife.

"There's someone holding a knife about three meters behind you. Get ready." I whispered to the woman.

As soon as I pressed the play button, Leva spun around, throwing the pickaxe in her hand at the man.

The man was startled, and Leva tackled him until he fell backward. The knife the man was holding moved swiftly into Leva's eyes, but the woman managed to hold it in.

Leva bit the man's hand, causing him to scream in pain, and the knife in his hand slipped off.

However, just as Leva was about to take the knife, now it was the man who caught her hand. A fierce struggle ensued, sending snow scattering and burying the knife.

The knife-wielding man managed to break free and inched quite a distance, then rose to his feet.

"My name is Leva, sir." Leva pulled Kat's knife from the back of her pants. "What's your name?"

"Is it important?" The man took a boxing stance. "Asking for a name in a situation like this?"

"I always try to remember the names of my victims, as a form of final respect." Leva was clearly lying.

I just pressed the pause button again to call Eric. Leva needs help against this guy whose melee attack stat is higher than hers.

The others from the Congraylham colony were still in their respective places to watch the situation. Their guardian spirit was too careful, either because they were afraid their colonists would be hit by arrows or they were confident enough in the knife-wielding man.

"My name is Mark." The man smirked.

Leva raised her knife in a reverse grip, then flicked her chin at her pickaxe near the man named Mark. "You don't want to take that as a weapon? You are now empty-handed."

Mark looked around slightly, shrugged, and sneered. "Well, it's no use in this tree-filled area. If it's a sword, I'll take it. At least, the sword can still be used to stab."

After saying that, Mark stepped forward and gave a combination fist to Leva. It seemed he knew that Leva was stalling for time.

Leva could still dodge all of the fists and managed to deliver slashes with her knife. But my female colonist couldn't hit her enemy at all.

"Damn, you're good!" Mark laughed a little, avoiding a single thrust from Leva. "But, you have to add more movement variety!"

Finally, the man managed to punch Leva in the face, making the woman stagger. Then, he kicked Leva's stomach hard, forcing her to fall.

And that's when Eric appeared and gave Mark a combination of sword thrusts. Mark was able to dodge, but his forearm was hit by one of the stabs.

Mark took Leva's pickaxe and threw it at Eric, then jumped back as far as he could.

"Hi, traitor." Mark smirked as he looked at the wound on his forearm, which didn't seem too deep. "Emma still misses your dick, you know."

Eric tightened his grip on his katana. So, Eric and Emma are lovers? Damn. In this case, will Eric's mental state last until the end?

Leva then lined up her partner and was ready to attack again.

"If you can't do it, let me do it, Eric." The red-haired girl whispered. "Your stabs just now weren't like your usual attacks. You weren't really into it."

Eric just gulped. Mark smiled, then jumped into the group of trees beside him.

The trees there were so close together, and I lost Mark instantly. Eric and Leva checked into the place and couldn't find the man either.

Damn it.

Eric and Leva pressed their backs against each other, constantly looking at various angles warily.

All that could be heard was the cold wind blowing hard, not a single footstep.

Seconds passed without anything happening. I can only search here and there with increasing anxiety.

I still can't find Mark anywhere.

And then, a rustling sound was heard from above, the snow was falling, I immediately pressed the pause button.

Mark's body was in the air, in a descending position, and about to hit Leva.

So, he climbed the tree without a sound, maybe also moved from one tree to another in silence. Holy shit, is he a squirrel?

Unwilling to give up, I was about to tell Leva and Eric the new plan. However, having kept my mouth close to them for a long time, I was speechless. My head is blank. The two of them wouldn't be able to avoid Mark.

So, I had to just tell them where Mark was and hit the play button.

Leva's body was caught by Mark, while Eric fell down because he was hit by the knife-wielding man's body.

Leva and Mark wrestled, rolling on the ground. Mark picked up a rock and hit Leva's head with it. Leva immediately held her bleeding forehead while groaning in pain. Just as Mark was about to hit Leva again, Eric charged at him. However, Mark managed to catch Eric's hand holding the katana. Mark thumped the hand until Eric's katana fell. After that, Mark banged Eric's head several times against a nearby tree trunk. Eric fell, and Mark came over to Leva again, who was trying to stand with a stagger.

Mark pulled Leva's body and pushed her hard out of the tree area. The Man also came out of the area and pushed Leva hard again, then gave a jump kick to the woman's chest. Leva tumbled backward and hastily rose to her feet.

"Watch out, behind you!" I shouted.

It's too late. Because she's still staggering, Leva lost her balance, then fell on the slope, and rolled on the descent.

The sound of explosions from the muzzles of firearms echoed.
