70: Let them rob

Bi Mengli and Liu Mei were no mere eye candy.

During the first round of train acceleration, some of the weaker carriages had already been eliminated.

Those who remained all possessed a certain level of strength.

In a thirty-minute instance, the two of them teaming up could absolutely crush other teams.

This was enough to prove their power.

Being marked in red by them was certainly not a good thing.

"Haha!"

"That's what you get for being so arrogant!"

"Thinking with your little head instead of your big one, only to be marked as a wolf and targeted by the two goddesses, huh!"

Although the bullet chat loved watching the chaos unfold.

But inside the instance.

Wang Feng's disadvantage had become very obvious.

Two squads, with multiple lines of fire, were aimed right at him.

If he continued to tangle with them, he would definitely be the one to suffer.

Wang Feng glanced at the time.

It was about time.

Thus, Wang Feng yanked off his backpack and threw it straight out.

He turned and vanished around a corner.

"Haha!"

"Smart kid, you know when to give in!"

Liu Tao caught the backpack, laughing heartily.

"Let's go! Time to settle the Points!"

Shang Ji reminded him from the side.

"Don't forget, half for each of us!"

"Fine, fine, I won't forget!"

Outside the livestream room.

Liu Mei and Bi Mengli's faces both turned pale.

It's over!

The resources they had in hand were intercepted!

At the gambling table of Shen Aoxue and Tao Ruiyu.

Shen Aoxue's expression was even more unsightly.

Sitting opposite her, Tao Ruiyu had a look of post-victory arrogance on his face.

"Deputy Chief Shen, Wang Feng's supplies have already been stolen."

"So for this round, his Points are zero."

"I lost, but you didn't win either."

"You should feel lucky."

"If he had made it back with that bag of supplies, you would have lost again."

"Haha!"

Neither joy nor sorrow could be seen on Shen Aoxue's face.

But her colleagues nearby could no longer stand to watch.

"Vice Captain, you don't have much of your Performance Points left."

"Stop playing. If you keep going... and your performance hits zero, then..."

"Exactly, Vice Captain! Don't get back on the table. As long as the green hills remain, there's no fear of lacking firewood!"

Several other deputy car commanders who were on good terms with Shen Aoxue also chimed in with warnings.

"Shen Aoxue, don't let it get to your head."

"If your Performance Points are gone, you can earn them back, but if you're gone, it's all over."

Tao Ruiyu also added his two cents.

"I feel the same way."

"Listen to their advice and just leave quietly."

"If you lose everything and get erased by the Train Crew, you'll become the biggest joke on Train Z2425, haha!"

"A deputy car commander who gambled away all her Performance Points and ended up being erased!"

"Hahaha!"

Tao Ruiyu's laughter was exceptionally piercing.

The people around Shen Aoxue gnashed their teeth in anger.

But... there was nothing they could do.

The Vice Captain really had lost on her own!

However, to everyone's surprise, Shen Aoxue didn't get angry; instead, she laughed.

She smoothed out her pencil skirt and crossed her long, black-stockinged legs.

A sharp glint flashed in her cold eyes.

"Tao Ruiyu, have you ever heard the saying?"

"Winning early isn't winning; only the person who leaves the gambling table last is the winner."

"So, the real contest has only just begun."

Tao Ruiyu smiled.

He understood this feeling all too well.

To put it bluntly, she just couldn't afford to lose and thought she could stage a comeback.

Little did she know that people like that usually ended up losing the most miserably.

Shen Aoxue, oh Shen Aoxue.

Since you're courting death, don't blame me for being ruthless.

But just then.

Qiu Churou, who had been silent all along, also sat down.

"Officer Tao, count me in."

Tao Ruiyu was stunned for a moment.

Oh?

"You, a newcomer, want to play too?"

It wasn't just Qiu Churou; many Attendants around them began to clear the way.

Members of the Guard Department, the Crew Group, and even another deputy car commander all took their seats.

Seeing this, Tao Ruiyu couldn't help but marvel inwardly.

It's getting more and more lively!

Haha! Not bad, not bad at all!

"Since there are more people now, let's not bet on Wang Feng's Points anymore."

"Betting is too slow, and the stakes are too small."

"Let's do it like before: we'll bet on the rankings and Points of the participating teams every thirty minutes."

"Each round, the minimum bet is five stars. How about it?"

Shen Aoxue raised an eyebrow.

"I'm fine with that."

Qiu Churou also gave a slight nod.

"I can do that."

"Then let's begin!"

The fish had taken the bait.

Round two, start!

When the second round began, no one bet on Wang Feng anymore.

Shen Aoxue bet on the Fei Lian Squad, while Qiu Churou bet on the Bedrock Squad.

It wasn't that they had lost patience with Wang Feng.

It was simply because this was also part of the plan... "Haha! These Points are quite something!"

"That kid Wang Feng really does have some skill!"

The Fei Lian Squad and Shang Ji Squad were as excited as if they had pulled a rare drop.

This single bag was worth one hundred and seventy Points!

Split between the two of them, that was eighty-five Points each!

Consequently, Liu Tao and Shang Ji made a decision.

"Everyone, split up and hunt down Wang Feng's squad!"

"Whatever they have, take it all!"

"Leave them with nothing!"

As the Points were settled.

First place had surprisingly become the Fei Lian Squad!

The thirty-minute mark had arrived.

Shen Aoxue won!

Tao Ruiyu had bet on the Shang Ji Squad, but they lost by a narrow margin of just over ten Points.

Tsk... what dumb luck!

Tao Ruiyu clicked his tongue inwardly.

"Officer Tao, hand over the Performance Points."

With a face full of displeasure, Tao Ruiyu tossed the five stars he had wagered to Shen Aoxue.

"Hehe, gambling really is interesting."

"I lost so much before, yet with just one win, it's all back."

"I really have to thank Captain Tao."

In front of Shen Aoxue sat a small mountain of stars.

A rough count suggested there were at least twenty.

Tao Ruiyu looked on with envy.

Thinking about the Performance Points he had just won only to cough them back up made him feel even more frustrated.

A strong sense of loss aversion made his emotions turn anxious.

No, I have to win!

One round could net at least twenty Performance Points!

For a game with such high stakes, opportunities like this don't come twice!

"Next thirty minutes, continue!"

Tao Ruiyu shouted.

Shen Aoxue smiled faintly and continued to place her bet.

"This time, I'm betting on the Blood Wolf Squad."

...The news that the Fei Lian Squad and Shang Ji Squad had stolen over eighty Points from Wang Feng quickly spread.

The Blood Wolf Captain slapped his thigh hard.

"I worked my ass off for half a day just to get twenty-something Points!"

"Those guys robbed Wang Feng once and got over eighty Points!"

"Calculating it like that, robbing Wang Feng is much more profitable!"

The Bedrock Captain also scratched his head.

"Buddy, let's team up in a bit!"

"We'll rob Wang Feng's stuff!"

"Deal!" The two hit it off immediately and set out again, searching the entire map for Wang Feng's Black Raven Squad.

Before long, they found Zhang Qiang and Wang Hao.

"Damn it! You bastards! All you know how to do is steal from others, huh!"

"If you're so capable, go collect supplies yourselves!"

The Bedrock Captain and Blood Wolf Captain burst out laughing!

"Collecting supplies isn't nearly as fast as taking them!"

"Sorry about that! Hahaha!"

At the same time.

Wang Feng's side and Zhang Yuqi's side were all being surrounded and intercepted.

What was originally a supply run had turned into a one-sided hunt for Wang Feng and the Black Raven Squad.

Liu Mei gnashed her teeth.

"What a bunch of despicable, shameless people!"

"They actually teamed up to besiege Wang Feng!"

"Shameless! Absolutely shameless!"

"If only I had been assigned to the same instance as Wang Feng!"

Bi Mengli also clenched her fists tightly.

"Being besieged by so many teams, even someone with three heads and six arms wouldn't be able to stop them!"

Soon, Wang Feng's supplies were snatched away.

Zhang Qiang and Wang Hao's side also suffered total defeat, and Zhang Yuqi suffered heavy losses as well.

"You bastards! I'll fight you to the death!!!"

The hot-tempered Cheng Rui raised his submachine gun, ready to fight those robbers to the bitter end.

But the other side had more people, and the gap in strength wasn't wide enough for him to crush them single-handedly.

Thus, Zhang Yuqi stopped him.

"Don't chase them."

"Continue with our mission."

"But! Those bastards! They stole the supplies we worked so hard to collect!"

A cold sneer played on the corner of Zhang Yuqi's mouth.

"It's fine."

"If they want to rob us, let them."

"But since they made the first move, they can't blame us for what happens next."

"Let's go!"
