213: What's the code?
“There aren't many people around here, so I’ll go take them out. Then we can search the Babel Tower to our heart's content!”
Xiao Yun activated his Destiny Skill and found that not many people had spawned in the Babel Tower Area for this match.
There was only one team at the East Gate opposite, and another team to the north, near the evacuation point.
The northern team's path seemed to indicate they had no intention of contesting the Babel Tower Area, but were instead running towards the outskirts.
This meant Xiao Yun only needed to deal with the team at the East Gate. For a short period, unless someone spawned directly inside the Babel Tower, no one would interfere with their search for supplies.
“Master, be careful!”
Lu Xueqing quickly ran to the door and pulled the lever.
Seeing Xiao Yun go in without any gear, she was used to it by now.
Having witnessed her master's array of items, Lu Xueqing also trusted that he could clear out a team.
However, Lu Xueqing didn't have a full-map vision skill, so she was worried that if there were too many teams around, Xiao Yun might run into trouble.
“Don’t worry. Listen for my signal. When I give the signal, it means I’m done killing, and you can come over to pick up some gear, weapons, backpacks, and so on.”
“Okay, okay.”
After giving instructions, Xiao Yun didn't say another word, immediately activating his powered exoskeleton skill and charging towards the East Gate.
He had observed the team at the East Gate; they were all wearing decent Tier 3 armor. Although their weapons were a bit lacking, they all had chest rigs and backpacks.
And Xiao Yun, who entered the map completely naked, naturally needed to borrow their hearing headsets.
At this point, after upgrading his family heirloom military dagger, its attack power had reached the maximum of 100 points.
Combined with the armor-piercing skill, it was basically one hit, one kill.
Moreover, after unlocking the Lanling King skill package, Xiao Yun's attack methods were not limited to normal attacks. He also had “Secret Technique: Ambush,” a wide-range damage skill that came with a lunge.
The damage of this skill was determined by the equipped melee weapon.
Paired with the military dagger, the damage could almost be described as an instant explosion!
However.
Not long after Xiao Yun left, Lu Xueqing, waiting at the west gate of the Babel Tower, suddenly thought of something.
“Hey! Master! What's the signal?!”
......
“You have entered: Baksh!”
“Current location: Bakeshi - Royal Museum.”
“Current match loot rate: Classified”
“Current game end time: 29 minutes 30 seconds”
“Hint: Please complete evacuation before time runs out!”
On the other side.
A figure Xiao Yun would never have expected also appeared in Baksh.
“Yu ge, can we really do this? This is Baksh!”
Zhang Yu and Long Xiaopang had just landed in the Museum, and their luck was also very good.
Long Xiaopang started trembling as soon as he entered.
“What are you afraid of! We've already made so much money with that gold bar. A set of Tier 2 armor and a modified Wild Bull only cost less than 30,000. If we die, just consider it a familiarization run!”
“That's still not enough to spend! That gold bar can only be rented for 300,000 a year. Two sets of gear for two people, if we die five times, it’s all gone!”
“Damn it! You're really scared of being poor. Can't we evacuate at least once out of five tries? That's a joke. Besides, we now have the ability to make money at the Zero Dam. If we go bankrupt, we can just go back to the Zero Dam, right?”
Zhang Yu said confidently.
Ever since he made money at Dam No. 0, he had found his progress accelerating.
In the restricted area, whether it was gathering information, aiming, or team fighting and kiting.
He was much stronger than his old self, who only entered naked to scavenge scraps.
Zhang Yu even felt that if he practiced a bit more, with his understanding of the map and his current skills, he might even have a chance to successfully evacuate by bringing in a three-dollar fruit knife!
This was the confidence that making money had given him; he no longer cowered like before but was brave enough to challenge.
Today, they had run knives in the Dam No. 0 Restricted Area and, relying on a mixed set of gear, had successfully evacuated several times, making money multiple times.
Therefore, after learning that Long Xiaopang's hometown was Longjiang City, he also thought of the Bakshesh Restricted Area here, which had a minimum difficulty of classified.
So Zhang Yu was very confident. After dinner, he took Long Xiaopang to Baksh.
“Just do it, will Yu ge harm you?”
“Well, that's true... We've really made a lot of money these past two days!”
At this moment, Zhang Yu and Long Xiaopang had already passed the most difficult period for new knife runners in this world.
After two days of running knives, both of them had accumulated about 400,000 in savings.
Just a short while ago, Zhang Yu and Long Xiaopang would be overjoyed if they found a ruler and successfully evacuated, yet...
No way, the restricted area is just such a magical place!
Getting rich is fast, and going bankrupt is fast too.
However, with Zhang Yu's understanding of the restricted area and his group-buy gear, it would be very difficult for him to go bankrupt!
For only 30,000 yuan, he possessed the combat power of someone with around 150,000 or 200,000.
As long as the cost is low enough, it's either a huge profit or a small profit; he will never lose!
This understanding can be said to be maximized!
“By the way, Yu ge, didn't you say you had a new invention? Did you bring it this time?”
As the two walked quietly towards the Museum, Long Xiaopang suddenly asked curiously.
“Of course I brought it!”
Zhang Yu chuckled, then pulled out a small white plastic box from his backpack.
On it was an infrared sensor and a bunch of incomprehensible buttons.
“Yu ge, this is...?”
“An anti-theft alarm!”
Zhang Yu chuckled, then casually placed the contraption on the Museum's main door.
“You've been to those small shops run by middle-aged and elderly people, right? They love using these things.”
“You mean the ones that say 'Welcome, welcome' as soon as you enter?”
“Exactly!”
Zhang Yu smiled faintly. After walking only a couple of steps, he attached another alarm to the wall.
“Haven't we always struggled to get information on enemies? With this thing, we only need to worry about what's in front of us. The areas we've already passed can be directly handled by the alarm. If anyone passes by, whether it's other operators or Asala Soldiers, it will sound 'Welcome,' and they'll probably be confused! We can then immediately ambush them and pin them down. Won't we get another kill?”
“Holy cow! Yu ge, you're a genius!”
“More importantly... these things cost 19 yuan each at wholesale! I bought a hundred directly. When we get information, even if we can't win, can't we still run away?”
Upon hearing Zhang Yu's explanation, Long Xiaopang was greatly astonished!
How did his brain work? How could he come up with such a brilliant invention?
......
On the other side.
After Xiao Yun left Lu Xueqing's side, he immediately activated his stealth function.
Arriving at the East Gate of the Babel Tower, he saw that the three members of that team had all gone up to the second floor, standing together, very cautiously holding their positions.
With such dense positioning, Xiao Yun didn't even need to think!
After going up, one Ambush, a charge, and three quick slashes directly took out all three of them.
After collecting their gear, the Babel Tower's access control still had half a minute until it unlocked.
So, Xiao Yun also switched to one person's CAR-15 and began signaling Lu Xueqing.
Da, da, da da da, da da da da, da da...
“Why is there no movement?”
After several rounds of signals, Xiao Yun's brows furrowed.
Had something happened to Lu Xueqing? Why hadn't she followed?
