202: We are in big trouble!
“Du Le, you actually managed to evacuate successfully?”
Seeing Du Le suddenly appear, still wearing his six-piece set completely intact, and with a big red bag packed full, Qiao Liangbian and Jian Fei both looked surprised.
“Whew—I ran into a team camping the extraction point; I almost didn't make it out.”
Du Le sighed, indicating that while the recent events had made him nervous, they hadn't posed much of a threat.
“Thankfully, it wasn’t a powerful team; I could handle them easily by myself. Oh right! Captain, look at this!”
With that, Du Le quickly rummaged through his backpack, then pulled out a glittering item.
It was the golden gazelle he had found in the Museum earlier, and he had managed to bring it out.
“It’s good that you evacuated successfully, otherwise our losses this round would have been huge.”
Qiao Liangbian also breathed a sigh of relief.
This way, the main loss for this round was just two six-piece sets.
When he goes to Confidential Aerospace for a knife run, he can bring one less six-piece set!
That was good news.
As for other weapons and bullets, anything that money can buy is easily resolved.
For a professional team of their caliber, representing a region, only the restricted six-piece sets were truly valuable.
After all, the only way for Longjiang City to obtain six-head and six-armor sets currently was to kill Lao Tai in Aerospace Base maps in other regions and acquire Lao Tai’s six-head and six-armor sets.
And Lao Tai doesn't necessarily wear a six-head and six-armor set every time. Most importantly, after killing her, you also need to successfully extract with the equipment. Therefore, six-piece sets are extremely precious among professional teams.
“This golden gazelle should be worth 4 points, right? Although for a Confidential Baksh run, this kind of profit is already enough, it’s a big loss for the two six-piece sets we spent.”
Qiao Liangbian said indifferently.
However, there was nothing they could do about it.
Who told them they were unlucky enough to encounter a professional team suspected of being from the Dragon Kingdom government?
Just thinking about the black giant shield he saw in the restricted area, Qiao Liangbian was still somewhat shaken.
To complete the mission to become Deep Blue, a satellite dish was a must-have!
That item only drops in Aerospace Base, and the refresh rate is extremely low, only appearing easily on Confidential difficulty.
When Qiao Liangbian hadn't yet formed his current team, he had played Confidential Aerospace in Jinghai City for a month.
However, whether it was the large safe, small safe, or air cargo, he had never seen a single satellite dish.
He even began to doubt whether such an item truly existed in the restricted area.
“Speaking of which, Captain, Jian Fei, what happened to you two in the restricted area?”
Just then, Du Le also asked curiously.
“I killed so many teams on the first floor of the Museum, and I was about to call you down to loot, but when I turned around, you were both eliminated?”
“You still remember that Deep Blue team that Team 2 mentioned, right?”
Qiao Liangbian said indifferently.
“It was them after all… I didn’t expect their strength to be so formidable, to actually eliminate both of you.”
Du Le immediately frowned.
In the restricted area, he had already thought that things would turn out this way.
However, what puzzled Du Le was, where did that team go after killing Qiao Liangbian and the other person?
Originally, Du Le thought they were camping in the cubicle, but even when only seven or eight minutes of match time were left, he still didn't hear any movement.
At that time, Du Le also felt that waiting like this wouldn't work, so he quickly rushed out of the Museum from the first floor, then circled back from the first floor of the West Building.
Upon reaching the first floor of the West Building, he directly picked up the backpack containing the golden gazelle and ran.
Fortunately, the gate at the Bathhouse extraction point had also been opened by someone, allowing Du Le to successfully evacuate.
Although the journey was thrilling but without major incident, it still left Du Le with questions.
Where did that team go?
“Oh right, Captain, I brought your dog tags back for you.”
Du Le pulled out two dog tags and handed them to the two separately.
Qiao Liangbian took the dog tag and looked at it, the name on it made him frown immediately.
“Xiao Yun…”
Reading the name of the killer on the dog tag, Qiao Liangbian’s heart was even more astonished.
This Xiao Yun was clearly the young man they had just encountered.
Both he and Jian Fei had died at his hands.
Seeing this, Qiao Liangbian immediately frowned.
He still remembered that in this round, he and Jian Fei were burned to death by Ural's incendiary grenade.
So, if the young man named Xiao Yun was Ural, then could it be that the girl he was with was actually Deep Blue?
“Since we know his name, we should be able to find some information about him back at headquarters. Then we can see which region they’re from; someone has already completed the Deep Blue mission.”
Du Le suggested.
“Du Le, I suggest we just forget that name…”
At this moment, Jian Fei, who was beside him, said weakly.
“What do you mean? Aren’t you curious about their origins?”
“Curiosity killed the cat! We’ve gotten ourselves into big trouble this time!”
Cold sweat broke out on Jian Fei’s forehead, looking as if he was still shaken.
Qiao Liangbian, beside him, also had a solemn expression.
Seeing this, Du Le became even more confused.
“What exactly is going on here?”
...
On the other side.
Xiao Yun sold the weapons, small gold, and bullets he obtained from this match at the Exchange.
After purchasing an SS-grade skill in the previous match, he had about 25 million left in his bank card.
After clearing out these materials, the balance in his card surged again, reaching 35 million.
Aside from the red materials in his secure container, which he didn't sell, the two six-piece sets also remained unsold.
It wasn't that Xiao Yun didn't want to sell them, but he hadn't expected the Exchange not to accept them!
“Sir, our Exchange does not provide trading services for equipment of this quality. If you wish to sell it, I can help you contact GTI.”
At the time, the Exchange staff at the counter had said this.
Xiao Yun found it troublesome and decided to keep the two six-piece sets for his own use when he plays Aerospace.
Since these items couldn't be traded, it meant they couldn't be sold or bought.
In a few days, GTI in Haibei City might arrange for a few people to participate in the professional assessment. At that time, it would be perfect for Liu Shihhan and Lu Xueqing to wear these two six-piece sets, so that if they really had to play Aerospace, they wouldn't be instantly killed as soon as they entered the map.
Ding-a-ling—
Just then, Xiao Yun’s phone rang.
Picking up the phone, he saw it was a call from Yu Youya.
“Oh, Xiao Yun, you’re finally willing to unblock me, huh? You really went through a lot of trouble.”
“Alright, alright, didn’t you also block me once? We’re even now, okay?”
Xiao Yun laughed helplessly.
“No way, you blocked me first. You have to treat me to this meal.”
“This, this isn’t right, is it? How can a teacher make a student pay for a meal?”
“You’re no ordinary student! You’ve earned more in the restricted area these past few days than my salary for several years!”
Listening to the two of them chatting and laughing, Liu Shihhan, who was beside them, couldn't take it anymore.
“Get to the point!”
“Oh, oh! Uh, Teacher Yu Youya, where are you right now?”
