Just as Brandon walked out of Holy Fire City, he heard the sounds of fighting.
He was delighted.
"Could it be that I'm getting another chance?"
If this time was added in, this would be the third time he had succeeded in getting another chance!
He walked on the edge of the rocky mountain. Just as he crossed a mountain peak, he saw two people confronting each other. One of them had a valiant face, while the other had rat-like eyes. His face was wide but his mouth was sharp. He looked a little wretched.
Brandon waited quietly.
Just like before, he waited for the people on both sides to start fighting, so that he could observe the strength of both people.
But what he did not expect was...
The moment the two people came into contact, the outcome of the battle was decided.
That wretched-looking man was almost instantly stunned by the valiant-looking man.
With just two strikes, the wretched-looking man lay on the ground and slowly turned into a soul tomb.
Brandon's mouth twitched.
"This person..."
"He was probably a player who always avoided fighting and only wanted to live until the final round."
Brandon had seen many such players before he transmigrated.
In escape games, there were two types of players no one liked: those who avoided fighting until the very end and those who hid and only wanted to sneak attack others. This guy belonged to the first category.
But in the end...
Facing a strong player like that valiant-looking man, he was defeated in one hit.
He had almost no ability to resist.
If he'd gotten lucky and picked up some good equipment and skills earlier, he might have stood a chance.
However, the best way to get high-quality equipment was to kill others and pick up the spoils of war.
"What a pity. One less kill for me."
"But it doesn't matter. I'm coming to kill you now!"
Brandon quickly pounced on the valiant-looking man.
The valiant man had stopped in front of the soul tomb. He was probably searching through the soul tomb for good equipment or skill books.
By relying on infinite invisibility and silence, Brandon moved within a meter of the man's back, and he didn't even notice.
Orange dagger!
Charged attack!
Poison!
A sudden stab!
[You have struck the target, causing 204 charged damage!]
Instant step!
After succeeding in his attack, Brandon did not hesitate at all. He immediately used 'instant step' to hide, staying out of sight of the valiant-looking man.
The instant Brandon attacked, the valiant-looking man reacted. As he turned around, he slashed outwards with his longsword, and a shimmering aura extended out from the sword.
[F-class talent: Sword aura]
But...
It missed!
The valiant-looking man's face was gloomy. He had clearly paid attention to his surroundings, and there was no one around.
How could he have been ambushed?!
And where did his attacker run off to?!
"Damn it!"
"I'm poisoned!"
His attacker was definitely still spying on him, so he did not dare to continue looking at the wretched-looking man's soul tomb.
Instead, he took out the [armor repair box] from his backpack.
After that attack, his 150 armor points were reduced to zero. Even though he had hundreds of HP left, he was still poisoned, and his armor was useless.
He used his tools as he left his original spot.
At the same time, he was still carefully surveying his surroundings.
Brandon, who had already returned to his invisibility state, looked at the valiant-looking man and pondered.
"The sword aura I saw just now should be his talent."
"An ordinary person might have been caught off-guard by that attack, but it's really useless against me."
"The quality of his armor might be purple or orange, but its armor points are definitely 0 now."
Looking at the valiant-looking man taking out a tool, Brandon sneered, "You think I'll let you restore your armor points?!"
Just as the valiant-looking man was about to restore his armor points!
Charged attack!
The silvery flash of a blade appeared behind him!
Stunned for 3 seconds!
During these 3 seconds, Brandon seized the opportunity and stabbed again.
Poison!
Seeing that the stun time was almost over, he used instant step and hid behind a rock, quickly returning to invisibility.
Meanwhile, the valiant-looking man was immediately stunned on the spot. He was so frustrated that he could collapse right there!
"What the f*ck!"
"There's no one behind me!"
"How did someone sneak up on me and stun me again!?"
He really could not vent his anger.
His [armor repair box] was about to restore his armor points, but because of the sudden attack, it was interrupted.
Three consecutive slashes, two charged attacks, and two poisons.
The valiant-looking man's HP was already down to one-third of its full value. He only had around 300 HP left.
It was very dangerous!
This time, the valiant-looking man did not waste time using items while he retreated. Instead, he ran far away in one go.
As he ran, he constantly looked behind him.
"He can't catch up...he can't catch up..."
Unfortunately...
Brandon's purple shoes, which granted him +18 movement speed, and his instant step skill allowed him to run much faster than the valiant-looking man.
Only when he reached the edge of the poisonous gas did the valiant-looking man stop.
"He shouldn't be able to catch up to me after I've run all the way here."
Seeing that there wasn't even a shadow behind him, he heaved a sigh of relief. He took out his supplies and prepared to recover his status.
At this moment!
A blade light flashed behind him.
Charged attack!
Stunned for 3 seconds!
Another slash!
Poison!
[You have killed an enemy (Morgan Connolly)!]
[All your attributes have been increased by 5 points (only valid in this game)!]
The valiant man fell to the ground and turned into a soul tomb.
Until the end, he did not see who killed him.
He would probably have nightmares about this when he went to sleep tonight.
Brandon revealed himself, but he did not focus on the spoils of war like the valiant man. Instead, he first restored himself to invisibility before checking the man's soul tomb.
In the escape game, one had to be more cautious as the game progressed.
After returning to invisibility, it was time to pick up the spoils of war!
...
On the other side.
Jack and Gareth, who had rushed from Aland to the safe zone, also noticed the number of players.
Jack touched his hooked nose and exclaimed, "Two more people were eliminated, and the last remaining enemy...is Brandon?!"
"I just don't know if that guy killed those two people. He...probably killed at least one of them."
"Of course, those two people might have fought in the poisonous gas and died in there."
"No matter what, we only have one enemy left!"
"Gareth, this time, we've won again."
"As usual, lure him over. The kill will belong to you, and I'll be the final winner."
Gareth didn't say anything, but he quickened his pace.
