Chapter 316: Chapter 28: One of Our Own! A Cheap Godfather

Despite being chased by the monstrous steam-emanating creature behind them and harassed by nearby savages, both sides didn’t forget to make each other’s life difficult.

"Damn!" Moon God, who was running, suddenly grabbed a nearby tree trunk to stop his high-speed movement. The moment he stopped...

The tree two steps away from him was suddenly showered with wood chips, and a small hole was shot through it. There was a wisp of smoke coming out of the hole.

"Bloody hell! Has the enemy not died yet?" Moon God knew this was the work of the enemy sniper and couldn’t help but get annoyed. "It’s supposed to be archer against archer! Finish him off!"

"The way you say it sounds like a woman finding out her child isn’t her husband’s, killing him first, then scolding him for being scum." Li Changhe, who was running at the back of the group, couldn’t help but retort. "I have to calculate their running route and landing time of the arrow. The enemy isn’t stupid—since the first attempt failed, they must be on guard! Let me unlock the [Title Skill], and I’ll show them swift justice!"

"What kind of weird comparison is that? If you had a [Title Skill] to use, would we need your archer skills? Would we even need to run?" Moon God looked back at the steam soldiers about seventy or eighty meters behind them.

They were biting close. If it weren’t for the dense jungle and numerous savages blocking their pursuit, they would have been caught a long time ago.

Both sides interfered with each other along the way. Li Changhe used the Black Hawk perspective to locate the enemies and coordinated with [Remote Attack Expert] to use arrows for a killing attack.

Meanwhile, the enemy somehow precisely aimed at Moon God. This was the third time he had dodged bullets.

Both sides wanted to kill each other and slow down the other party so that they could be properly "entertained" by the steam soldiers coming from behind.

If either side lost one person, the other side would have the advantage and could even win directly.

Unfortunately, the enemy wasn’t easy to beat.

They were able to shoot with a rifle from under the dense jungle cover.

The good news was that only Moon God got shot at. This wasn’t a joke...

Moon God’s attributes were high enough to make it easier for him to dodge bullets.

If Cangyue Ming were targeted, it would be tragic.

Now that Cangyue Ming had unlocked [Skills], he had a substantial fighting capability. However, the disadvantage in his attributes made him the easiest teammate to eliminate.

He wasn’t strong in direct combat. Before unlocking his [Title Skill], he could only be considered a fragile scout.

If he unlocked his [Title Skill], he would be a powerful auxiliary. If his [Backpack] were unlocked... it was said that he brought many technology-related items specifically for dealing with assassin-type [Players].

"They probably detected vibrations or heard the noise from our movements to make their predictions. After all, unlocking [Skills] could lead to such situations," He Feng analyzed. "Now, it’s too dangerous to try to kill the enemy. We should retreat first. At least we know their general strength."

"Then let’s retreat. The third force shouldn’t attack the activity range of the martial arts forces. The destination is up ahead. Be prepared to retreat at any time. If the enemy still pursues us, it means they won’t let us go. Let’s try to work together to take down this thing!" Li Changhe said. "If we can’t beat them, we’ll scatter and run. Moon God, take care of Brother Cangyue! We’ll gather at the martial arts forces’ camp!"

"Understood," Moon God replied.

Just as they were discussing, the scenery suddenly became clear. The dense trees that had been on their sides turned into a vast plain.

They had already reached the central plain of the island. A bit further was the so-called Sky Pit. These aliens came out from there during the night. It was the most dangerous place on the island.

If the third force had any concerns, they shouldn’t chase them here.

If they still wanted to chase... it meant there’s no room for negotiation.

That’s why both sides unanimously chose this route. The result was a brief encounter.

The moment Moon God emerged from the jungle, he grabbed Cangyue Ming and used a [Skill], instantly accelerating and rushing tens of meters away behind a rock wall.

He did this to dodge the enemy sniper’s attack.

Li Changhe, on the other hand, raised his hand and shot an arrow at a figure coming out of the jungle a hundred meters away.

Almost at the same time, the sound of a gunshot came.

The tree not far behind Li Changhe shook.

A tree hole pierced through was revealed.

On the other side, Snow Shadow’s face was solemn.

One step in front of her, an arrow was still trembling, embedded in the ground.

This was the first time the two sides met face-to-face, and their greetings to each other were lethal attacks.

Most [Skills] didn’t have such a long capture range, so they could only rely on [Players] with long-range attacks to fight each other.

It was like two extraordinary swordsmen—when their figures intersected, they brandished deadly cold light!

If they only struck once and escaped thousands of miles away, it would sound like something out of chivalric heroism.

Both sides didn’t linger, but hid back under the cover of the forest and moved closer to the other forces in the plot.

Because the high-energy individuals on both sides could sense a strong and hostile human approaching.

Steam soldiers plus this kind of expert?

It didn’t look right. Time to leave!

About a minute later, among the four members of Volga’s team who had already run far away, Paperman Zhang grinned suddenly, "Two pieces of good news. First, the steam soldiers have left."

"What’s the second piece of news?" Volga looked back at the jungle and nodded slightly. Indeed, they didn’t chase them anymore. That was really good news because otherwise, they would have to desperately try to kill that steam soldier.
