Players Invade Cyberpunk

Chapter 42 Ghost Knocks on the Door_3



How much money is this! Just left here, isn't it a waste?

Yesterday, that idiot Brother Dao tried to drive out of the map boundary, and got kicked offline by the system halfway through, plus he received a yellow card warning.

The Red Barrel in the passenger seat patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go, let's go."

The fully loaded truck's body sank a few inches, wobbling as it drove out of the trash heap.

The players were still chatting on the truck, not realizing they were already being followed.

"Hey, Red Barrel." Rainy Night asked while playing with his handgun, "How far did you guys get in that instance?"

Even with more than twenty players and the entire forum's cloud player guide team combined, they still had a tough time against Phoenix Club. A direct attack wasn't successful at all, even following the standard game strategy process they explored, sneaking in from upstairs with the help of their hacker always ended up being discovered by the enemy hacker.

Even if both hackers would cancel each other out in the subsequent process, the alarmed Tiger Claw gang would swarm them like a tide, and with surveillance all over the map, even Brother Ni, the best at sneaking, couldn't slip in.

After all, sneaking is not invisibility; even if you can avoid human sightlines, you can't hide from surveillance.

As one of Tiger Claw gang's bases, Jotaro fortified it like an iron barrel, impossible to breach without solid strength.

"Almost there; someone in the forum already used 3D software to model the entire map. We're planning to use three people and that hacker as bait, lure away the others after shutting down the surveillance, and then let Brother Ni sneak in alone."

Poor Warrior shook his head, sighed, and said, "The small mobs in this dungeon are smarter than those solo game ones; common trickery won't work. If only we could lure the mobs to fall off the building like in Love 5 with positioning."

After speaking, he instinctively glanced at the rearview mirror.

In the bumpy rise and fall, a fleeting car shadow caught his attention.

Someone noticed his unusual behavior and asked, "What's up?"

Poor Warrior frowned, an alertness rising in his heart from past work experience,

"Something's off... Seems like someone is following us."

"What?" Red Barrel was startled, immediately wanting to lean out of the car to look back, only to be pulled back by Poor Warrior.

"Don't look; if they notice, we're in trouble. Watch out for desperate actions from them."

Rainy Night Without a Knife and Water Moon Cave Heaven seemed a bit excited, "Are we farming mobs? Just find a place to take them down and loot coins, won't it?"

"No way." Poor Warrior shook his head repeatedly, "People don't matter, but if the car gets in trouble, even killing the mobs won't cover the loss."

This car costs 6000; if it gets blown up, they'll have worked for nothing for at least a week.

"What do we do then? We can't just let them follow us."

"They're following us to find the office location... Poor Warrior thought for a bit and realized the situation, "It must be that Night Wanderer group, seeking revenge since we defeated them last time."

He glanced again at the rearview mirror; due to uphill advantage, he saw further, spotting several car roofs...

"There are quite a few of them, at least four cars, estimating at least twenty people."

"Whoa, that many?" Red Barrel stood up in fright, almost hitting his head.

He fought in that last battle, where they had less than thirty people and pinned down their ten. If not for the pre-arranged ambush by the boss, they wouldn't stand a chance against them head-on, not to mention now they have only four people.

Poor Warrior drew his handgun from his waist and cocked it, "Notify the boss first, have the office prepare early, everyone get ready for combat."

...

Night Wanderer... huh...

Lin Miao didn't expect that he hadn't gone after them, but they came to provoke him instead. He clapped his hands together.

All players received this quest, including those training in Superdream.

Whoosh—

Screw training, they're farming mob and storming the castle!

No matter where they were or what they were doing, the players noisily grabbed their gear and charged out.

"Where? Where? Where are the mobs?"

Jianxue Wuming sprinted with a respirator and goggles on, several tubular explosives strapped to his chest, face flushed with inexplicable excitement, looking like a crazy Ivan.

Tailing behind, Big Eared Tutu was nearly frantic, "Slow down, damn it! If this explodes, we're all dead!"

Hearing this, the other players quickly distanced themselves.

Jianxue Wuming didn't mind, pulled one out from his waist and held it in his hand, "What are you scared of? I added a stabilizer; it won't explode until the electronic control activates the detonator. It's stable. Besides, if it really explodes, you wouldn't escape at this range."

Big Eared Tutu: "Bullshit, the chips are all salvaged parts; who knows if they work."

Jianxue Wuming: "You found them anyway, and I'm a Jinling University of Technology graduate, okay?"

Lin Miao's eyelids twitched wildly, unobtrusively moving a step back, slightly increasing the distance from Jianxue Wuming, while also calming the noisy players:

"Okay, okay, everyone calm down."

"Return to your posts, set up the machine guns, prepare to face the enemy. Players wanting to use the exoskeleton should find Mantou to register and apply for a set of temporary equipment from W."

Lin Miao licked his lips, gestured Jianxue Wuming and Brother Ni over with a wave after sending the others away, signaling them to come over.

"Hey, hey, hey! Put the explosives down, don't bring them near me."
