Chapter 1451: Your Wife Is Getting Killed!

“Isn’t that a silencer? This camper is going to be so stealthy. You sure it’s his first time?” a spectator wondered upon seeing that Lu Li had equipped a silencer onto the automatic rifle.

Lu Li was already a stealthy player. Now that he had a silencer, he was going to break the game.

“There’s someone coming over. I can hear a car,” Water Fairy suddenly whispered.

Lu Li was listening to the audio transmitted from Water Fairy’s side and he indeed heard the revving of an engine. He began to feel a little nervous.

“Did they see you? Look for a place to hide. I’ll come over right away.”

Water Fairy’s fans that were watching the live-stream expressed their discontent.

“Wow, how caring. Their sweetness is through the roof, isn’t it?”

“Can’t be that big of a deal, can it? Although my goddess might not be the best player, she isn’t that weak as to hide when she sees two people. This guy’s not a bad guy though.”

Lu Li picked up a new gun – an M16 rifle. Then, like a ghost, he quickly dashed out of City M.

“This guy’s moves like a veteran. He doesn’t seem like a newbie at all.”

“Being able to see him and being able to hit him is a different matter altogether. There’s also his speed; he’s so agile. This is probably what fully rushing looks like.”

Would Water Fairy get pressured?

Of course not. She was an average player, but her being average was relative to her skill as a professional player. While she wasn’t great at aiming and shooting, placing within the top 10 was quite for her, but the ‘Winner Winner Chicken Dinner’ announcement was a rare sight.

The two players cautiously approached the different houses. From afar, they already saw that the doors were opened, so there must have been people entering and exiting the houses already.

They hoped that these people would have already left after checking the rooms. Perhaps they had even left them some loot.

It was at this time that Water Fairy descended from the sky and killed them all.

The AKM was not as powerful in terms of damage when compared to a shotgun, but the fire rate was far superior. One magazine held 30 bullets. If she had a shotgun instead, two shots probably would not have been enough to kill both enemies, which meant that she would die if she made a mistake.

The two players were shocked, then randomly fired towards Water Fairy. As a result, she lost half her HP.

Water Fairy was lucky, as her opponents were only wielding average guns. Otherwise, she would have definitely died after being shot that many times. These guys were also struggling to find loot, seeing as they were desperate enough to come to a place like this.

“Alright. All good here,” Water Fairy reported as she wrapped some bandages around her arms to heal.

As a result, many people typed ‘666’ and ‘goddess V687? into the spectators’ chat. Compared to a camper like Lu Li, they preferred the direct confrontations and firefights.

As Water Fairy confidently organised her items after her kills, something tragic happened. A bullet flew right at her head and exploded.

“It’s over. It’s over. The goddess is down.”

“If it was me, I would have gone into hiding before healing. The goddess was too confident and exposed herself.”

“Lu Li, hurry up and save your wife! Your wife is about to die!”

Of course, Lu Li heard the gunshots through Water Fairy’s audio. He didn’t bother with stealth anymore and immediately started rushing over.

Unfortunately, the assailant was not like Lu Li and instantly fired two more bullets into Water Fairy, killing her.

After looking at the chat, Lu Li roughly understood what happened to Water Fairy.

He could only say that he couldn’t do anything about it.

“That’s okay. I’ll spectate you and teach you how to play this game.”

Water Fairy seemed like she was used to getting killed; she wasn’t disappointed at all. After changing her camera to Lu Li’s perspective, she decided to coach Lu Li on this game.

“The M16 is a pretty good gun. The only thing is that you don’t have that many bullets. Remember to loot as much ammo as possible,” Water Fairy said, then continued, “The circle’s going to be a problem soon. Try and find a car as soon as possible.”

“What’s the circle?” Lu Li asked.

This question confirmed that he was a newbie to the spectators.

“The whole map is safe at the beginning of the game. However, as the game progresses, a circle will appear. The area inside the circle is safe, while the area outside of the circle is the ‘poisonous area’. If you’re in the ‘poisonous area’, your HP will drop. The safe area will become smaller and smaller as the game progresses, and the damage from standing in the ‘poisonous area’ will increase. Players need to stay in the safe area if they want to survive.”

Lu Li quickly found a Jeep under Water Fairy’s guidance.

There were many cars in Survival and Escape, but most of them were broken. The ones that could be used were Jeeps, convertible Jeeps, passenger cars, motor-tricycles and motorcycles.

The one that Lu Li had stumbled across was the safest Jeep, but it wasn’t without weakness. It was the slowest vehicle – the top speed was probably 80 or 90km/h.

This was enough for where he wanted to go. He had around one minute until the circle reached him.

This was Lu Li’s first time driving a car in the game.

The basic controls were easy to grasp, but players often flipped their cars since they didn’t know the terrain well. However, Lu Li had years of driving experience, so his car remained quite stable. He quickly got to the safe area and braked.

“You don’t have much ammo left. Use this time to loot some ammo before the circle gets here,” Water Fairy suggested.

“Everyone needs to get to the safe area, right? I’ll find a place and kill them, then I’ll loot their bodies. Might as well take revenge for you too,” Lu Li said as he crouched and hid behind a large rock. This rock was surrounded by two large trees, so it also worked as cover.

“Hm...Alright then.” Water Fairy couldn’t reject his idea. His logic made perfect sense.

Furthermore, she believed that Lu Li had the right strategy. Previously, she was in a similar situation, but she wasn’t that good at the game, so she usually ended up dying. Water Fairy had played this game for numerous years, but she was still rather ordinary.

“Crap. I feel like my goddess will get dragged into the mud. These two are completely different. How did they even end up together?”

“Nah, they’ll be fine. My goddess has always had a good solo style. This Lu Li just needs to protect her.”

“Why do I keep thinking that this Lu Li guy is quite strong? I realised that I have learnt many things from watching him play. Is he this good in Dawn too?”

“He’s the model for all Thieves in Dawn. You guys are just making a fuss. The only thing that I can say is that this game suits him extremely well. He just swapped out his dagger for a long-ranged gun.”
