He had killed three players using three bullets before needing to change the magazine. Even with the expanded magazine, there were only four bullets left.
There might not be time to change the bullets in the following battle, and Han Gui did not want to miss out on a kill while having to reload.
"We should act now. We'll let them fight first. That way, they won't be able to get airdrops if they don't finish fighting. Meanwhile, we'll take advantage of their fight and secretly steal their kills. Do you understand?"
Han Gui explained to Xinyue who immediately understood.
"By the way, if there's anything that I can't deal with in time, you can go ahead and act too. Don't let others get away with it."
"Okay! Xinyue understands."
They moved to another window which enabled them to view the entire battlefield - the players in the housing area lying on the low slope and the three teams of players who ran over from P City.
With the fishing village team completely wiped out, the atmosphere became even tenser. No one wanted to drag out the situation any longer. The power grid was approaching and the safe zone was about to relocate again.
If they dragged it out for another half an hour, they would be electrocuted. The power grid's movement was accelerating.
Behind the hill, Liu Hao turned to look at the few temporary subordinates around him while Xing instructed the others.
"We can't wait any longer. Let's start the fight. If we wait, no one will be able to escape."
After saying that, Liu Hao looked at another hill dozens of meters away and shouted. "Opponents, let's shoot together. The power grid will be here in half an hour. If we don't act now, no one will be able to get to the air drops!"
"Okay! Let's do it together!"
Once he heard the response from the other side, Liu Hao raised the Kar98k in his hand and started to aim through the 8x mirror.
Liu Hao was quite skilled. In the real world, he was a mafia boss with more than a hundred people under his wing. So, forming a gang was not foreign to him. After a round of bluffing with a few mentions of benefits, two insecure players were fooled by him.
Liu Hao did not have many hobbies. He did not take drugs - he knew the harm they'd do to his body. He also did not like to gamble. At most, he would fool around with women and drink. Other than that, he also liked to read novels.
He had read novels that were similar to games like PUBG. When he had suddenly arrived in Infinite Space, he quickly got used to it. While he was alone in the flight cabin, he quickly looked around and started to list out the benefits and dangers of his situation.
And two other players decided to join him.
After landing, the three of them killed a few people. When they tasted the sweetness of the rewards, the two players became more obedient and started to see the fall of other teams as the latter's own bad luck.
With the ferocity of Liu Hao and his group, the others decided to group up too. Unfortunately, it was a little too late. In the end, there were only two people left, and the two teams took over the bungalow by the sea.
There were three people on one side and two people on the other side. Their fighting strength was about the same and no one wanted to die. Liu Hao did not want his team to act recklessly. Otherwise, they would just fall apart.
After all, they had formed a bond. Who would dare break it when they've gone through so much together?
Liu Hao aimed at one of his opponents' heads through the 4x scope and pulled the trigger. However, Kar98K bullets were not made to travel such a distance, especially not 70-80 meters.
The level 2 helmet on the opposing player split open like a book and he instantly fell backward. Liu Hao's face instantly lit up before it darkened again as he quickly realized what he had done.
The opposing player had been hiding behind the hills too. If he fell backward, how else was Liu Hao supposed to take his finishing shot?
"F*ck! What luck!"
Liu Hao cursed in his heart. He held the Kar98k like it was his precious treasure. This was a godly gun. The thrill of killing a level 2 player in one shot was something he really enjoyed.
On the second floor, Han Gui chuckled. He had been waiting for this. Liu Hao might not have been able to take the shot, but Han Gui could!
He had the benefit of having a high vantage point that allowed him to see the entire hill.
Liu Hao felt bitter in his heart. It had not been easy for him to perform so well. But before he could be happy, his opponent had been killed by someone else!
His heart dropped.
The team from P City was also very confused, especially Fangyun, who was helping Player 090. When he saw his teammate suddenly die in front of him, he almost wet his pants in fear.
There were only him and Player 090 on the team. Now that his remaining teammate was dead, he was the only one left. If Player 090 was shot again, wouldn't he die?
Realizing that there are now two teams around him, Zhao Fangyun was afraid that they would kill him too. He didn't have any teammates, so he was very anxious. He didn't want to get to the air drops anymore. He just wanted to get away from this place.
On the second floor of the housing area, Yang Xinyue looked at the player who had just been killed by Han Gui. She was very happy. Not because of the points and kills, but because whatever made Han Gui happy, made her happy too.
Han Gui had killed Player 090 in a two-man team. Thus, if one died, there would only be one left. In order to prevent his kills from being stolen, Han Gui had to make a move quickly and finish off what he had started.
The 4x scope was now aiming at the head of the remaining team member who was now running away in fear and panic. Han Gui's lips curled into a disdainful sneer.
Since he had decided to run, he had to be prepared to die.
Han Gui pulled the trigger and the head in the level 2 helmet was immediately sent flying by the force of the 7.62 bullets. It was an instant kill!
[Ding! You have achieved a headshot with the M24 to kill Player 058. You have obtained 100 points. 10x Multiplier has been activated. Congratulations on obtaining 1,000 points.]
[Ding! Respected Player 088, you have killed 17 people.]
His number of kills had increased again, reaching a terrifying number of 17 people. There were only 100 people in the entire game and Han Gui had already eliminated nearly a fifth of the players!
This was only the third round!
One of the teams from P City was suddenly eliminated, leaving only five players. Instantly, both sides were evenly matched. Other than Han Gui in the dark, there were only five players on both sides.
The remaining two teams were cursing internally. Who was their third opponent? They wiped out a team right from the start. What on earth was this opponent doing? Wasn't this a little too terrifying?
The team from P City was cursing while the team from the housing area felt a little fortunate. The P City team had lost members. This was their chance!
"Big Brother, what should we do? The power grid is getting closer!"
Li Meng from P City looked at his big brother and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
