448: Stronger people

"Xiao Yun! Come loot the bodies!"

Jiang Kexin and Xiao Yun had just started talking when Xia Ming's voice came from the edge of the Dormitory Area to the west.

The reason he had to shout so loudly was that in this match, neither Xiao Yun nor Liu Shihhan had equipped any gear, besides Xia Ming.

After all, according to Jiang Kexin's plan, they were just here to be 'bosses' in this match.

Just like the escort clubs in Xiao Yun's previous life, this round was equivalent to the bosses coming to evaluate the hitmen.

"Let's go, we'll go take a look."

Jiang Kexin and Xiao Yun walked towards the west.

As they walked out of the Dormitory Area, they saw Xia Ming holding an SR-3M Compact Assault Rifle, while an M700 large sniper rifle was slung on his back.

Not far behind him, three operative corpses had just dissipated with the wind.

Seeing the gear and configuration on him, Xiao Yun nodded silently.

One for close range, one for long range—Xia Ming was indeed a genius from Malai Country; he had a strategy for playing Aerospace.

In the Aerospace Base map, the escorts in his previous life mostly preferred using the M14, or M250, and also guns like the K416 and M7, which could handle both close and long ranges.

However, the disadvantage of carrying only one gun was that it only had an advantage at medium-close or medium-long distances.

If they encountered a bridge blockade, it would be difficult to deal with at long range without a sniper rifle. And if they encountered a skirmish, jumping out to spray would not be as effective as a submachine gun. Therefore, it required extremely strong information gathering abilities and extraordinary personal performance.

Xia Ming's configuration of one submachine gun and one sniper rifle was completely different from the playstyle of those escorts.

The SR-3M was for close range, while the M700 was for long range.

If he was held at medium range, he would be at a disadvantage against an M14 or similar, requiring the large sniper rifle to perform.

And his weapon loadout also incurred a terrifying amount of wear and tear per match.

With two guns and five sets of armor, he would immediately become overloaded upon entering the restricted zone.

In addition to standard stamina shots, he also had to carry enough overload shots to cover the entire match, otherwise, he would be out of breath after just a few steps.

"How is it?"

Seeing Xiao Yun deep in thought, Jiang Kexin smiled lightly and asked.

"What do you think?"

"I'm asking you the question."

"...Alright, I think it's pretty good, he has some skill."

Xiao Yun nodded silently, approving of Xia Ming.

At least for now, Xia Ming was the most skilled person he had encountered in Aerospace.

As for Song Qiuyun, Xiao Yun hadn't encountered her in Confidential Aerospace, so he didn't know her actual skill level.

However, considering she had experience going to the world on the other side of the restricted zone, her strength might be several levels higher than Xia Ming's.

However.

Jiang Kexin, beside him, gave him a slightly displeased look.

"Just 'pretty good'? Does that mean you've seen stronger people?"

"Uh..."

"Answer the question!"

"Alright, I have indeed."

Seeing Jiang Kexin's unfriendly attitude, Xiao Yun quickly gave up the idea of lying.

This Jiang Kexin seemed to specifically counter him.

Every time Xiao Yun wanted to think about how to answer, she could detect signs of him lying.

"There's someone I don't know personally, but her strength is definitely the strongest I've seen in the restricted zone."

Xiao Yun said indifferently.

Although Xia Ming's performance was much stronger than that Yinlong Team captain he had encountered before.

That Yinlong Team captain seemed to be at the peak tier in Dragon Country, meaning he was ranked in the top 100.

Moreover, he was also older, in his thirties, and at that age, most people's potential was basically exhausted. He probably didn't have much potential left to continue getting stronger.

But this Xia Ming in front of him.

According to the data, he was only 20 years old this year, with boundless prospects.

Xiao Yun even felt that if he grew for a few more years, even in Dragon Country, he might be at a GTI top ten level.

Of course, the level mentioned here only refers to hard power in combat aspects such as marksmanship, operation, and match strategy.

As for his scavenging ability, it was not yet evident.

After all, GTI's scoring system is a comprehensive system, and extracting resources accounts for a large part of it. Therefore, if Xia Ming was only good at fighting, he might still not make it into the top 10.

"Who is it?"

Hearing Xiao Yun's answer, Jiang Kexin raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly not expecting him to answer that way.

"Song Qiuyun."

"Song Qiuyun?"

Xiao Yun no longer concealed anything from Jiang Kexin.

After all, whenever he tried to lie, she would see through him; he simply couldn't hide it!

And upon hearing that name, Jiang Kexin immediately fell silent.

Seeing her face turn cold and not saying a word, Xiao Yun didn't know what she was thinking and didn't dare to ask.

"What are you two chatting about over there?"

Xia Ming asked, puzzled.

"Nothing, just praising how amazing you are."

Xiao Yun smiled faintly and gave him a thumbs up.

"Oh, oh! Xiao Yun praised me!"

Hearing Xiao Yun's evaluation, the smile on Xia Ming's face was uncontrollable, and his eyes narrowed with laughter.

"Alright, alright, hurry up and loot the bodies, this team is really rich!"

"Okay, coming."

Xiao Yun smiled faintly and walked towards the bodies of the team from the west.

He might not be interested in other things, but he was interested in looting bodies!

Walking up to a corpse, Xiao Yun observed for a moment and found that this team all had brand new four-piece sets, and their weapons were also well-modified, each worth three to four hundred thousand.

However.

Although this gear configuration was already considered very good in the level 6 restricted Confidential Aerospace.

Compared to Machine Bro in the Administrative District under nightfall mode, the gear gap was still very large.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun deeply missed nightfall mode.

In that kind of place, wanting to extract millions in a single match was simply effortless!

And at this moment.

Xiao Yun looked at the equipment dropped on the ground, just about to bend down to pick it up, but suddenly had a bad premonition.

Then, Xiao Yun squatted down calmly, silently looting the equipment dropped by this team.

......

"Current Location: Aerospace Base - Central Control Building."

"Current Drop Rate: Confidential"

"Current Game End Time: 27 minutes 32 seconds"

"Hint: Please complete extraction before time runs out!"

Just over two minutes into the match, Xia Ming led Xiao Yun and Jiang Kexin directly to the Central Control Building.

However, upon arriving here, there was no sign that any of the supplies in the entire Central Control Building had been touched.

And in Aerospace, the Central Control Building was a location where teams were guaranteed to spawn, so it was impossible for no one to have appeared.

Seeing this, Xia Ming's brows furrowed instantly.

"This match seems to have a master!"

As he spoke, Xia Ming's movements also gradually became more cautious.

"You two wait for me here first, I'll go in and check the situation."

With that, he entered the Central Control Building alone.

And watching his solitary figure walk away, Xiao Yun sighed softly.

"He's probably going to run into trouble."

"How so?"

Hearing this, Jiang Kexin also tilted her head to look at him with interest.
