334: Bridge blocking tactics
“Current location: Aerospace Base - Helicopter Evacuation Point.”
“This field's drop rate: Top Secret.”
“This game's end time: 26 minutes, 26 seconds.”
“Hint: Please complete evacuation before time runs out!”
Inside the restricted zone, Xiao Yun arrived at the pull-lever evacuation point.
Liu Shihhan and Lu Xueqing, who had finished searching the Centrifuge Chamber, also ran over quickly, injecting themselves with stamina boosters along the way.
“Master, Master! I found something good again!”
“I knew why you usually ran so fast; it turns out you bring syringes to every match. I learned something.”
Liu Shihhan and Lu Xueqing each had their own gains, but Xiao Yun first made a shushing gesture, then pointed to the Presidents Office.
He saw that a team, whether from the Blue Room or the Black Room, had already entered the Presidents Office.
And, just like in the previous match, this team also stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, observing the situation at the evacuation point.
“Someone has been watching us the whole time!”
Seeing this scene, Liu Shihhan immediately felt a chill run down her spine.
This feeling of being monitored without knowing it made her feel very insecure.
“Shihan, can you see what equipment they have?”
Lu Xueqing asked.
“I'll try.”
With that, Liu Shihhan raised her sniper rifle and used the high-magnification scope to check on the team in the Presidents Office.
“This is a fully geared team. All three of them seem to have Tier 5 sets. No wonder they dared to go to the Presidents Office. However, their expressions... why do they seem a bit surprised?”
Liu Shihhan looked through the scope and saw the expressions of the team in the Presidents Office, immediately feeling a bit confused.
“Could it be that they're surprised we came to the evacuation point so early? That doesn't seem right; there's nothing to be surprised about... Oh, could it be related to that explosion sound earlier?”
Lu Xueqing asked, somewhat perplexed, while looking at Xiao Yun beside her.
Although they were in the Centrifuge Chamber earlier, both of them were wearing Tier 5 hearing headsets, which increased their hearing range by 40%, so they easily heard the explosion from the Horizontal Test Chamber.
And in the restricted zone, to create such a large-scale explosion, in their knowledge, only Xiao Yun could do it.
“Perhaps.”
Xiao Yun smiled faintly, explaining nothing.
He knew that the reason the team in the Presidents Office was shocked was most likely because they heard his use of Ural's loitering munition skill.
For Liu Shihhan and Lu Xueqing, it was just an ordinary explosion sound.
However, for the team in the Presidents Office, they probably knew about Ural's existence in GTI Professional, or had encountered it before, which is why they were so wary of this explosion sound.
“You're pretty good with a sniper rifle, Shihan. You even know to use the high-magnification scope to observe enemy equipment.”
“Why don't you just praise me for knowing how to breathe?”
Liu Shihhan looked speechless, but she was still a little happy to finally receive praise from Xiao Yun.
And then, Xiao Yun began to transmit the shocking theory he discovered in his previous life's game.
“Actually, if you play with a shotgun, it feels pretty similar to a sniper rifle. If you modify an M870 well, add a high-magnification scope, and use slug rounds, you can use it as a sniper at medium to close range. It's just that its performance isn't as good as a real sniper. Since you found the M870 shotgun easy to use before, it means you have great sniper talent, doesn't it?”
“Really? Then I'll practice more in the future!”
Liu Shihhan's face was filled with joy. She hadn't expected to hear such good words of praise from Xiao Yun.
And after Xiao Yun finished speaking, he had a look of a successful schemer.
He finally managed to trick Liu Shihhan into trying a different weapon!
Although shotguns are good for knife runs, the limitations imposed by their weapon range are too great.
They basically only have an advantage in close-range combat, and even if modified into sniper mode with slug rounds, they can only be used at medium range.
Generally, this type of weapon is fine for Dam No. 0 and Longbow Creek Valley, and even has a chance in narrow urban combat maps like Baksh, but in Aerospace Base, shotguns and similar weapons are very useless.
Due to the unique nature of the Aerospace Base map, encounters between two teams are usually medium-range firefights, and for the outer areas, whether it's the Aerospace Bridge or the Central Control Bridge, there are ultra-long-range engagements.
In such situations, the scope of use for sniper rifles is very wide. Not only can they collect enemy intelligence from a long distance, but they can also actively choose to set up a long-range sniper position to gain an advantageous firing position. Additionally, for Demuran, the BOSS of the Aerospace Base map, having a sniper rifle makes him easier to deal with.
“Oh, right, you'll probably have to lend me your sniper rifle later.”
Thinking of this, Xiao Yun suddenly spoke.
In this match, since the Blue Room and Black Room had two teams, and neither team had engaged yet, if they wanted to pull the lever to evacuate, they would at least need to encounter one of them.
Furthermore, the Prison Area's position was also in motion at this time. The two teams, Lao Er and Jail Three, had not encountered each other but had successively escaped from the Prison Area. Currently, Lao Er's people had already reached Employee Channel 2, saw the card activated at the employee channel, and were preparing to follow through the channel into the Core Area.
In addition, the team in the Dormitory Area had also completed their search and was heading towards the Central Control Building.
“This match is probably going to be a good show.”
Xiao Yun smiled faintly. In this match, besides himself, there were five other teams remaining on the field. There would definitely be a fierce battle in the Core Area later, and he had decided not to participate in the conflict of this match.
“Alright, give me the sniper. I'll give you the MP5 for hip-firing.”
“Mhm, mhm.”
With that, Xiao Yun took the fully modified M700 from Liu Shihhan's hand and stood on the Aerospace Bridge, waiting for the appearance of the Ascendant's action.
“Do you still remember the bridge-holding tactic?”
......
“What are they trying to do? Not just drop the package and evacuate one person?”
At the same time, outside the restricted zone.
The General Examiners were all puzzled when they saw Xiao Yun's current location information.
After eliminating one team, Xiao Yun's squad gathered again.
And this time, their gathering point was a sniper position on the Aerospace Bridge.
“They're going to snipe people from the Core Area from the bridge? Isn't this the bridge-blocking tactic only used by internationally top-tier GTI Professional teams?”
Seeing the position of Xiao Yun's three people, George raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised.
However, upon hearing this term, several General Examiners nearby were somewhat confused.
“Bridge-blocking tactic? What is that?”
“I think I've heard of this tactic somewhere, but isn't the success rate very low?”
“Mr. General Examiner, could you elaborate?”
All the General Examiners were very curious about the bridge-blocking tactic George mentioned.
“Then I'll give a brief explanation of why this tactic is powerful and why it's difficult to implement.”
With that, George coughed twice, then began a detailed tactical explanation.
“First, to implement this tactic, at least one operative who has mastered the Ural skill is required. Just wanting to fulfill Ural's mission conditions is very demanding; it even requires killing crocodiles with bare hands.”
“Demanding in what way?”
Just then, a Russia General Examiner also asked, confused.
