Chapter 107 - 107 14 2V2 Part 1

107: Chapter 14 2V2 (Part 1) 107: Chapter 14 2V2 (Part 1) Tang Zheng guessed that the organizers had possibly set up surveillance devices like cameras all over the isolated island, watching every move and battle of the participant gamers.

He wondered if they would probe into them if the people from the room performed well.

And then, there were their superpowers.

According to Zhang Yan, those didn’t exist in the 22nd century, so their group would be a particular point of interest…

“Well, screw it, we just have to complete our mission and leave.

Let the organizers deal with the headache.

But what exactly is the origin and purpose of the Silver Trojan?” Tang Zheng shook his head.

Now wasn’t the time for contemplation.

He had to concentrate.

“Big brother, are we just aimlessly wandering around without a goal?” Zhang Yan, intending to save power, turned off the radar.

As noon approached, the dense forest became increasingly humid and hot.

After walking for 15 minutes, they were already soaked in sweat, the girl’s clothes were completely wet and adhered to her body, highlighting the outline of her underwear.

“There’s someone!” Tang Zheng didn’t answer but suddenly raised his right hand as a silent warning.

Zhang Yan, who didn’t understand the signal, hastily ran a few steps to hide behind Tang Zheng, which seemed to be the only safe place for her.

“It’s a corpse.” Once he realized the woman lying a few meters away was a corpse, Tang Zheng walked over to observe the cause of death and the scene’s mangled state.

He also admonished Zhang Yan; even minor oversights could lead to death here.

“She was first blasted off a leg and then had her throat cut by a dagger.

What a horrible way to die…” Tang Zheng could guess how much the woman had suffered before her death by looking at how her hands clutched her throat and her face was frozen in a mask of terror and agony.

Her body also had a few cuts, indicating that the killer had interrogated her.

“Brother, let’s…

let’s not chase them anymore.” Zhang Yan was frightened by the gruesome scene of the corpse.

She held onto Tang Zheng’s clothes tightly while nervously surveying the surroundings.

“At this time, there must be a lot of participant gamers who have exhausted their physical strength without getting any supplies.

It’s the best time for a hunt.” Having honed his nerves, a few deaths didn’t faze Tang Zheng anymore.

Even if there was a pile of bodies spread out before him, he would remain calm.

With a face full of grievance, Zhang Yan found that she couldn’t persuade Tang Zheng.

She could only pray that they wouldn’t run into any gamers.

Fate, however, had other plans – half an hour later, Tang Zheng notified her that two triangles had appeared on the radar screen.

“Such bad luck.” Zhang Yan activated the radar, and the sight of the triangles stung her eyes.

If it weren’t for Tang Zheng standing by her side, she would have run away at the first chance.

“We should count ourselves lucky.

Hurry up and let’s not let them get away.” Tang Zheng was not a reckless man.

Judging by the moving trajectory of the two triangles on the radar, he inferred that one was fleeing and the other chasing.

As expected, Tang Zheng and Zhang Yan’s involvement sent both fleeing.

“Who do we chase?” Zhang Yan never imagined Tang Zheng’s next sentence would leave her chilled to the bone.

“You flank the fleeing gamer, while I block them from the front.” Seeing the concern in the girl’s eyes, Tang Zheng soothingly touched her hair, “Don’t worry about it.

The fleeing gamer won’t dare to turn back once you’re on his tail.

As for the chaser, if he’s smart, he will start to flee the battlefield immediately.”

“If you do well, I’ll reward you with a grand dinner.

And remember, you don’t need to be fast, but you must keep pressure on the prey.

If the chaser sets his sights on you, stop and hide in the dense forest.

I will come save you.” In order to train Zhang Yan into a suitable ‘bait,’ Tang Zheng dedicated a lot of effort.

He even planned to let Zhang Yan chase after the fleeing gamer if the chaser managed to escape.

But seeing her tiny face crumpled up in a pitiful expression, he instantly dismissed the idea.

“Quick, let’s get moving.” With a smack, Tang Zheng clapped Zhang Yan’s butt, making the girl jump instinctively.

“Not bad to the touch.” Tang Zheng joked, rapidly moving around in the dense forest.

“So annoying.” The girl rubbed her bottom and joined in the chase.

Of course, she couldn’t figure out that Tang Zheng’s spank was supposed to alleviate her nervous tension.

She thought he was just teasing her.

Three minutes later, Tang Zheng was less than a hundred meters away from the fleeing gamer.

If they hadn’t been in the dense forest, the gamer would have already been caught.

But now, they were no better off – scampering away like a homeless dog.

Looking at the positions of the three triangles on the radar, Tang Zheng’s lips curled into a satisfied smile.

He was in control of the situation.

The fleeing gamer had increased his speed considerably and started to change his fleeing direction.

Tang Zheng guessed that the poor devil must be cursing up a storm.

It was to be expected; anyone being chased by three people would feel the same.

The speed of the gamer in pursuit reduced a little.

He intentionally kept his distance from Zhang Yan’s triangle.

He didn’t give up.

Maybe he harbored a glimmer of hope and wanted to seize a good opportunity at the end.

Tang Zheng actually wanted to maintain this pressure until the fleeing gamer ran out of physical strength and then attack.

After all, the poor guy had already run quite a distance.

But thinking about that silly girl Zhang Yan, Tang Zheng sighed, sped up again, realizing he had to end the battle quickly.

In a chase like this, the girl could only last a few more minutes.

She had already done very well and Tang Zheng didn’t want to give the other chaser any chance.

If the chaser changed his target, Zhang Yan could end up in danger.

“Not much time left.” Within forty meters, Tang Zheng began to throw the first impact bomb.

The bomb flew over the fleeing gamer’s head, landing on the path ahead of him.

BOOM, the shock wave hit the surrounding trees, and wood chips and soil were blasted in every direction.

Without any choice, the fleeing gamer changed his direction again.

His frantic heart didn’t allow him time to dodge the branches; he just rushed straight ahead.

His face and arms were covered with scratches, but this change in direction also slowed him down, allowing Tang Zheng to get even closer.

“Still running.” Tang Zheng threw the second bomb, but unfortunately, it didn’t hit the fleeing gamer.

The guy kept looking over his shoulder to react timely and avoided the explosion.

He was relatively lucky.

But amid the explosion, Tang Zheng was only twenty meters away from him.

“Please, spare me.

I am a good person.” The fleeing gamer pleaded, but suddenly turned and threw an impact bomb at Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng had been on guard for this move; he didn’t reply but braced himself to chase more.

The bomb exploded about five meters beside him.

The wood chips struck Tang Zheng on the cheek, leaving a wound and causing his blood to flow.

“You crazy…” The fleeing gamer missed his throw and was vexed.

But upon seeing Tang Zheng dash straight forward without dodging, his frustration turned into fear.

Tang Zheng seemed hell-bent on killing him.

“……”

Thanks to the high and low cabinets and the underground guard for their generous sponsorship!
