Moreover, who knows if this woman might end up playing out the story of the farr and the snake with Hu Yang, suddenly attacking her and stealing her equipnt.
Forget about the players, even the woman being rescued was a bit bewildered.
She had thought that her best outco would be being untied and abandoned on the spot to fend for herself.
"Sister, why are you taking with you?"
Hu Yang: "Do I need a reason? You have nothing now and you're injured. If I leave you here, you'll die sooner or later. That wouldn't be a rescue. You asked for help, and I responded, so naturally, I'll help you to the end."
Woman: "This..."
Hu Yang: "Don't speak yet. Let's move another two hundred ters east. I know a hiding place there where I can treat your wounds. Oh, and I can also give you so good news. My player's na is Ren Zhong. Have you heard of him?"
"Ren Zhong? The famous influencer who's particularly good at stocks?"
Hu Yang: "Yes, he's very wealthy, and he promised that as long as I win the final victory, he's willing to pay to redeem more people fighting alongside . Of course, it's very difficult, with many preconditions, and it requires major interest exchanges with Deep Communication Group. I'm not guaranteed to succeed, but there's a tiny chance. Most importantly, even if we can't redeem you, you still have a chance to live longer. Who knows, if you're lucky enough, you might beco the final lucky one. So, are you interested in joining ?"
"I am!"
Hu Yang took the first step forward.
Five minutes later, the high-yield bomb buried beside the body of the previous contestant exploded with a thunderous roar, instantly killing ten people.
Before detonating, Hu Yang had already left so ergency dicine, a Second Level fast-shooting gun, and a communicator for the woman, and then dashed out alone.
Less than ten seconds after those ten were shredded by the shockwave, Hu Yang reappeared at the blast site, swiftly collecting usable components with the help of two drones.
Only a minute later, wrapping up quickly, Hu Yang, with her hands full, vanished into the air again.
More Hunting Teams were rushing over, but Hu Yang had already appeared at the entrance to another cave.
She put away her weapon and called out inside, "Co out, I noticed you before. You've been watching the whole ti but didn't try to ambush while I was helping soone. I think we can talk. Let's talk about how to survive together."
A wary middle-aged man's voice ca from inside, "Who knows if you're just trying to trick out to kill ."
"If I truly wanted to kill you, would being hidden inside be any different from coming out?"
There was a mont of silence from within. The middle-aged man asked again, "Where's the girl you saved just now?"
"She's waiting for on the other side."
At this mont, Hu Yang's communicator rang.
She turned on the speaker, and the nervous voice of the woman ca through, "Sister Hu, I see a lot of people gathering at the place where the explosion happened."
Hu Yang: "It's okay, they won't find us. Give three more minutes."
After ending the call, Hu Yang looked up again, and a silhouette of a middle-aged man appeared at the cave entrance.
This man wore a vest filled with pockets, looking exactly like how Ren Zhong first t Ou Youning.
Clearly, he was a fresh half-baked Blast Master.
The middle-aged man's face showed disbelief, "Can't believe you actually saved soone here."
Hu Yang looked sorrowful, "This slaughter shouldn't have happened. We are people too, but are forced to fight for Citizens' entertainnt. It's unjust. I've killed eighteen people so far, but I've never attacked proactively, always forced to retaliate. I don't wish to take anyone's life."
Middle-aged man: "Not even here?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
Hu Yang: "As I said, because we are people, not just instinctual animals. I used to have many friends, and I've been saved by others too."
Middle-aged man: "But we have no choice."
Hu Yang: "No, there is a choice."
"Why?"
"My player and I are facing an unfair battle. Look over there, hundreds of people are gathering and forming alliances, all wanting my life. To defeat them, I need more companions."
Middle-aged man: "But in the end, only one can live. Even defeating them isn't very aningful."
Hu Yang: "At least then, at the last mont, we can have a fair internal duel and die without regrets."
Middle-aged man: "Yes."
