"Mm," Ye Xiu replied casually. He didn't have time to care about Wei Chen right now. Even though they were facing normal players, these normal players were fearless. They were especially brave in the face of the stocking gift pack, so Ye Xiu had to be careful. Ye Xiu had thought about transferring the stockings, but when he saw his partner, Baozi, he immediately dismissed the idea. It was best to carry the stockings himself.
Even Ye Xiu was having a hard time in this situation, so it wasn't strange for him to have a low score on the individual leaderboards. There were only 20 pairs of stockings in total. Even if they were evenly distributed, there would still be 30 people who were fearless and barefooted.
If it was a team, the total score would be calculated. With five people working together, there was a lot of room to maneuver. But if it was a solo player, those who had a bunch of stockings in their backpacks could only rely on themselves. Once he was surrounded and killed, all of his previous efforts would be wasted.
It was obvious that Tang Rou, Wu Chen, and Mo Fan, who were fighting in the solo map, weren't having an easy time either. They were indeed much stronger than normal players. Thus, after accumulating some experience in the early stages, they were all like Ye Xiu now. They had become stocking gift packs and were beaten up by other players wherever they went.
Wei Chen observed them and found that they were all in a difficult situation. They completely ignored the objective environment of the solo battle and laughed loudly.
"You have to protect them well. If someone kills them at the last moment, the tables will turn!" Wei Chen said. This was a judgment he made based on his experience and intuition, but he immediately grasped the main point of this activity. The system refreshed stocking owners instantly, and most of the players didn't have any stockings, so it was definitely not a wise choice to fight for stockings from the start. It was too difficult to be the first to fly against the wind and soar into the sky.
As soon as Wei Chen finished speaking, he heard Tang Rou cry out, "Aiyo!"
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Wei Chen immediately rushed over to take a look. After taking a look, he expressed his sympathy and regret. "Look, you accidentally got killed! Keep a low profile! "
Han Yanrou, who had 6 pairs of stockings, was killed. This was more or less related to Tang Rou's personality. She didn't like to hide, so most of the time when she was found, she would fight!
After repeated bloody battles, Tang Rou couldn't guarantee that her character would come out unscathed. In the end, after killing several more players, she was ambushed while she was recovering. In the midst of the chaos, Tang Rou also made mistakes in her response. Then, she was killed by several people who came one after another. After that, Tang Rou watched through her soul's perspective as the group of people fought over the stockings that she dropped when she fell. She had no choice but to revive.
"Such a pity …" Wei Chen shook his head and let out a sigh. He then glanced at Mo Fan. Wei Chen never liked this cold guy, so he didn't pay much attention to him before. After a few glances, he found that this kid was quite calm. He had 7 pairs of socks in his backpack and was still looking for a new target on the map. He was able to quickly get rid of any opponents he encountered.
"A craftsman …" After looking for a while, Wei Chen couldn't help but sigh. As expected of someone who started out as a scrap picker. Doing these quests was simply too professional. It was simply tailor-made for him. He was like a fish in water.
After looking at Mo Fan, Wei Chen looked at Wu Chen's side again. After a few glances, he was stunned. After that, he gave Wu Chen a thumbs up and sighed from the bottom of his heart. "Brother, you're decisive."
The 20 pairs of stockings on Wu Chen's map had all spawned. When Wei Chen looked, the players had picked up 15 pairs. Among them, Wu Chen's Dawn Rifle had 6 pairs. He was currently the target of the Sockless Party. However, when Wei Chen looked around, he saw that in the activity guide panel at the top of the screen, the number of stockings that had been picked up by the players had decreased to 11 pairs. When he looked at Wu Chen's Dawn Rifle, he saw that he only had 2 pairs of stockings.
Wei Chen was stunned. He immediately understood that his words might have given this guy some sort of inspiration. Thus, he took the initiative to throw away 4 pairs of stockings. Thus, he suddenly became inconspicuous in the crowd of stockings. With his strength, who would be so unwise as to specifically pick him for stockings?
"Taking a step back in order to advance. You really have some skill," Wei Chen praised. Of course, Wu Chen wasn't satisfied with just 2 pairs of stockings. He was temporarily getting rid of the awkward position of being a big gift bag and retaliating. To be able to throw away the stockings that were already in his hands, he was quite bold.
"Look at him, you should learn from him!" Wei Chen admired Wu Chen's actions. He turned around and scolded Ye Xiu. But when he turned around to take a look, he was also surprised. "Aiyo, your reaction is quite fast. You actually threw away your stockings first. You can be taught!"
On Ye Xiu's side, he was even more thorough. He threw away all 10 pairs of stockings that were already in his hands. Now, his team didn't have a single pair. There were only 2 pairs of stockings that had been picked up on the entire map. Their progress was so slow that Wei Chen was about to cry.
This guy wasn't in a hurry to continue with their activity. He continued to wander around. This time, he turned to Baozi's side and took a look. He immediately exclaimed, "Damn, you're so despicable!"
Baozi was hiding in a pile of snow. His vision was locked onto a spot. There was no one there. There was only a pile of stockings on the ground. 10 pairs of stockings.
Ye Xiu also threw away 10 pairs of stockings, but he also sent Baozi to watch over them. When Wei Chen said "despicable", he wasn't referring to Baozi. He was referring to Ye Xiu. He guessed that Ye Xiu must have made such arrangements.
"Baozi, you can't just keep an eye on the stockings. Pay attention to your surroundings," Wei Chen reminded Baozi.
"Boss told me to keep an eye on them like this." Baozi did not move an inch.
Ye Xiu also expressed his approval. "Well done, Baozi."
"Of course." Baozi was pleased with himself.
At this moment, several figures appeared in Baozi's vision. They came out of the snow and were getting closer and clearer.
"Someone's coming. Move quickly." Wei Chen hurriedly reminded Baozi. Could it be that this fellow had fallen asleep while sitting and was still maintaining his vision?
But Baozi really did not move.
"Hey!" Wei Chen pushed Baozi.
"Don't cause trouble!" Baozi turned his head and sternly reprimanded Wei Chen.
"They're almost here. Why are you still in a daze!" Wei Chen shouted.
"You're so nosy! Bring your team over! "Ye Xiu spoke.
In the time it took for them to exchange a few words, that team had already arrived. When they suddenly saw the pile of stockings in front of them, they were clearly overjoyed. Their characters flew over.
Baozi continued to stay motionless. He watched as that team picked up all 10 pairs of stockings in one fell swoop. At the same time, he was still discussing: "What's going on?"
"Did they die together?"
"Obviously!"
"Haha, we got lucky."
"Awesome!"
They picked up the stockings one after the other. After picking up the stockings, the team immediately prepared to leave. At this moment, Baozi finally moved. He maintained a certain distance and slowly followed.
Wei Chen stared blankly for a moment. Only then did he completely understand Ye Xiu's intentions. Wu Chen was only giving up on the stockings that he already had. As for Ye Xiu, at first, Wei Chen thought that he was going to throw the stockings out and then stand guard on the side. Only now did he realize that he wasn't just standing guard. This guy had intentionally let someone else take the hit and then sent Baozi to keep an eye on them. When the time came, wouldn't he be the oriole behind them and take all of the stockings in one fell swoop? Compared to Wu Chen, Ye Xiu's method was more proactive.
"Shameless, despicable, shameless!" Wei Chen rushed over and said to Ye Xiu.
"Shut up!" Ye Xiu ignored him.
The subsequent development of the situation was, of course, as Ye Xiu had expected. The team that picked up ten stockings instantly became the target of public criticism. They were chased everywhere. The stockings' ownership changed hands several times. No matter which team it landed in, Baozi's Invasion was always in their vicinity.
As for Ye Xiu? He attacked everywhere, collecting stockings one by one. Then, these stockings would always magically appear near a certain team. Thus, the number of stockings in their hands increased. All twenty stockings had been spawned. Nineteen had been picked up. Among them, this team had sixteen stockings. This caused the other teams to howl and frantically search for this team.
This team's players were also afraid! They had actually managed to grab sixteen stockings. They really had to admire themselves. Seeing that there was still one more stocking to be picked up, the countdown would end. The darkness before dawn was always especially unbearable.
It wasn't easy to hold on until now. They definitely couldn't let their stockings drop at the last moment. If they wanted to gamble, they had to gamble this time.
The team of five gathered together. After a serious discussion, all sixteen stockings were given to one person. Then, they split up and left.
When carrying out a trade, the characters would move. This was what Ye Xiu wanted Baozi to see clearly. Baozi didn't disappoint Ye Xiu's expectations. Hiding nearby, he saw everything clearly. After the five of them split up, they didn't need any instructions to follow. Baozi stared at the player with sixteen stockings in his bag and reported the situation to Ye Xiu.
"Ah, they did it like that! That'll save us a lot of trouble. Go ahead! "Ye Xiu said.
Baozi, who had been lying dormant for a long time, finally exploded. He charged out from the snowy ground. Amidst the flying snowflakes, he rushed towards the stocking gift pack. That player probably didn't think that they, who had always been lucky, would be so unlucky at the last moment. They had only split up for a short while, but he had already been found.
Baozi didn't know whether or not he had sent out a call for help. Baozi only knew that this opponent was very easy to deal with. He killed him very easily.
The system's guilds flooded out like a tide. The names of Baozi's invaders flooded in row after row. The original target of public criticism had disappeared. In his place was a team that had picked up nineteen stockings. In the beginning, Lord Grim's team was in the lead. Later on, they 'slipped up'. After that, they were 'unlucky' and didn't get the big gift pack, resulting in them only having three stockings. However, at the last moment, they were lucky and managed to grab the big gift pack.
"Don't pick up the last stocking yet!" Someone shouted in the map's public chat.
The first to respond was a message from Lord Grim: "Haha."
Following that, Ye Xiu lit a cigarette. He moved the mouse and picked up the stocking beside Lord Grim.
System Announcement: Player Lord Grim has picked up the 20th stocking. If there are no changes in the next 120 seconds, the event will end.
