Had this mission not been My World’s and the others’ but himself, Feng Luo would perhaps have attempted to open the safe out of curiosity.
Based on what he had encountered up until now, it seemed like there was nothing that could resist the blade of Ghost Weep with the destruction Psionic Energy.
As for whether destroying the mission item would cause the mission to fail, with the level of freedom of War, there would definitely not be such a setting.
Of course, till then, NPCs’ attitude might not be too good, and Feng Luo would still have to bear the outcome.
However, with the current situation, there was clearly no time for him to open the safe.
Feng Luo suggested, “Let’s go down to the Underground City!”
He then led the group running towards the passageway to enter the city.
With what recently transpired, this was what they could only do as of the moment. Continuing to hide in this building would be futile.
Since the opponent had actually moved out twice consecutively in the night, further increasing the number of participating people by several times, it clearly proved that they had to get their hands on the object in the safe.
There were two Scouts, Mu Zi and Dan Hen, in the team who were able to shield against the opponent’s Detection to a certain extent.
However, as the sand outside would leave tracks, the opponent would easily know that they did not leave the military base. Then they would be able to lock this building according to their different traces.
The only way now was to enter the Underground City, then to think of a way to delay time until Mu Wu brings the Nightless City people here.
“Half an hour… We have to delay at least half an hour. During this period, stop them from entering the terminal region with all you’ve got!” Feng Luo instructed in a grave tone as he entered the underground passageway.
He looked at Mu Zi, My World, and the few others who were now members of the Nightless Club.
The discovery of the Underground ruin would not be a huge problem. The key was that the galactic warship could not be discovered by these people yet.
It would definitely make any player go crazy. Moreover, once these players discovered the galactic warship, they would certainly inform the NPC armed force immediately, known as Freedom Flag, to exchange for their rewards.
From the start, it was in Feng Luo and Mu Wu’s plan to expose the news of the galactic warship to that NPC force, and thereon let the Federal government NPC army help as fighters to get rid of all the hidden trouble surrounding this city-building.
But not now…
Feng Luo said softly, “I just hope that these people really see the importance of the object in the safe.”
Just then, Mu Wu had already entered the Underground City.
With Dan Hen, Watermelon Skin, and the others’ cautious studying, Feng Luo first let Mu Zi use Detection to certify that the surrounding had no monsters before bringing the team to run straight in the opposite direction from the terminal.
They had come down to a straight passageway, wherein over 10 meters was a flight of stairs leading to the main path that cut into different regions of the Underground City.
“A mistake… Should’ve taken an SUV from the start before we entered combat state!”
“That way, even if there were 300 people on the other side, they wouldn’t be able to catch up with us!”
Feng Luo brought the group running to the entrance of the main path. In his signal, they all hid, then raised their weapons and aimed them at the spot behind where they had come down from.
Throughout this process, Feng Luo’s sight unintentionally scanned through the main path of the Underground City, and a thought occurred to him.
The main passageway of this Underground City was not as narrow as a manhole dug by people. As it was meant to provide underground transport for the military base, the passageway could be said to be very wide, even 10 SUVs would be able to pass through.
The Nightless City team had not used SUVs before because, at that time, the underground passageway still had huge populations of monsters. It would have been too dangerous to use SUVs.
Currently, a huge portion of the monsters had already been cleared out.
In this situation, they could use an SUV, if they could get one.
Retreat when they were at the lower hand, and it would not be possible at all for the opponent to catch up with them.
However, it was a pity that the combat state determination in War was unlike typical games whereby it would only be counted when one really wanted to attack or after one was attacked, but was automatically determined by the system.
Now, the option of retrieving transport tools was already dim, making them able to only take on the danger of forcefully delaying the time.
“There’s an underground passageway over here. They have certainly gone down!”
Not beyond Feng Luo’s anticipation, the Freedom Flag players had indeed quickly found this place.
There were sounds from the passageway entrance, even lights and sounds from lighting tools. Then seven or eight figures followed, charging out from the entrance.
“F*ck! Underground here is actually a passageway. I thought it was a basement.”
The first to charge was a Heavy Armored Warrior player holding a shield. The light radiating from his terminal cut through the darkness in the surrounding region. His tone had a tinge of shock.
“Stop spewing nonsense! Hurry up and find them! We’re the first to discover this entrance. Can’t let them snatch it!”
Behind, a Scout player yelled.
“Should be over there…”
The Scout player first threw a Detection, then shone the lighting tool in his hand over where Feng Luo and the others were.
Ping!
Just as he spoke, a sniper bullet had already hit his head that was exposed from behind the Heavy Armored Warrior’s shield.
“-11345!”
The rest of the team were dumbfounded by the Scout player’s shattered brain in an instant and that blood-red five-digit damage coefficient above his head.
They had heard from someone in the team saying that the Wolves and Golden Scorpion people had met an insane Sniper, and so they had been defeated that they had fled and failed the mission.
But at this point, they did not really take it to heart.
They felt that the Wolves and Golden Scorpion people had lost their pride from the failed mission and deliberately underestimate the enemy’s ability.
Presently, this busted head and blood that had splattered onto their faces and clothing and which was still hot right in front of their eyes had undoubtedly informed them that there was really a Sniper on the other side.
Moreover, one who could kill in one shot.
Ping, ping!
Da, da, da…
Boom!
On Feng Luo’s side was not just one Sniper, but two, and then two Scouts and a Fire Manipulator who had already regained full MP.
Under the stunned gazes of these people, a bunch of bullets and a burning pillar that seemingly cut through the darkness of the underground passageway were already rolling over following Feng Luo’s attack.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…
In an instant, these people who had been unable to retaliate in time had once again turned into three streaks of the white light of death.
“F*ck! It’s an ambush here. Retreat! Retreat!”
Just like that, four of them had been killed, and the other few hurriedly rushed back out.
