Without Shen Jian blocking them, Ye Xiu and Bao Zi were able to escape very smoothly. However, they were now completely exposed to Excellent Era's players. They were escaping, but it wasn't that easy to escape completely. Xiao Shiqin and the other two followed closely behind. At the same time, they messaged Sun Xiang to see if he could intercept them.
There were 20 stockings on the map. Currently, Ye Xiu and Baozi had taken 11 stockings, instantly becoming the top of the leaderboard. With such a big rise and fall, the other players felt satisfied just by watching.
Of course, no one had any burdens right now, so if they really met someone with stockings, no matter how strong they were, they had to give it a try.
Ye Xiu and Baozi ran in front, while Xiao Shiqin and the other two chased from behind. As they ran, they bumped into quite a few players along the way.
When the players saw these characters, all of them were from teams with stockings on the leaderboards. They didn't care who was running in front or chasing from behind. They just did whatever was convenient!
As a result, there were players who attacked Ye Xiu and Baozi, and there were also players who attacked Excellent Era. However, normal players weren't a threat to either side, but neither side would stop to fight with normal players. As a result, Ye Xiu and Baozi's characters continued to run, while Xiao Shiqin and the other two continued to chase. However, more and more players were catching up behind them. They were all players they met along the way. They weren't able to stop them, but they didn't give up and chased after them.
However, normal players didn't have the ability to control their stamina. As they ran for a long time, some of them gradually fell behind. However, as they ran into other players, they were always able to catch up. This situation continued for a full five minutes.
Ye Xiu and Baozi's paths were truly erratic. Otherwise, Xiao Shiqin would have sent someone to intercept them. However, the way these two ran was completely random. Perhaps even they didn't know where they were going next. How could anyone make a decision?
Unable to make any predictions, Xiao Shiqin could only give real-time coordinates to Sun Xiang and Shen Jian who were not present. The real-time coordinates were constantly changing, and there were no rules to follow. It naturally became troublesome for Sun Xiang and Shen Jian to find them. In the end, they were reduced to chasing from two different directions.
Xiao Shiqin and the others couldn't make a decision, but this random running style was a competition of speed. Normal players might not be able to control their stamina well and be shaken off, but pro players were no better than each other. As a result, Ye Xiu and Baozi couldn't shake off Xiao Shiqin and the others, resulting in this strange scene of running for five minutes.. Until a system notification popped up. The 20th stocking had been picked up.
No one knew where the 20th stocking had spawned, but now that it had been picked up, all 20 stockings on the map had an owner. The system immediately began a 120 second countdown.
According to Excellent Era's usual style, if they weren't satisfied with the start of the countdown, they would first throw away a stocking to buy time. However, in this situation, Xiao Shiqin's heart skipped a beat.
No one would stop them if they threw away a stocking, but the problem was that there were players from other teams right next to them. If they threw away a stocking, it would be picked up by someone else. They wouldn't be able to buy any time. As for throwing and picking up, this seemingly exploitable loophole had been purposely fixed. The system wouldn't fall for it.
"Is this also Ye Qiu's scheme?" Xiao Shiqin was a bit annoyed. No wonder the other side had used such a low-skill method to run. It seemed like they were quite satisfied with the 11 stockings and agreed to end this round. However, even if they agreed, Excellent Era wouldn't! Catch up to these two guys in 2 minutes?
Not to mention whether or not he could catch up, even if he could, Xiao Shiqin wasn't sure if he could end the battle within two minutes.
"Should I find a place to throw a stocking?" His teammate Zhang Jiaxing also understood their current predicament.
"Looks like that's the only way." Xiao Shiqin said.
"Okay, I'll go first." Zhang Jiaxing said. His Cleric immediately separated from the two and ran to the other side.
The players behind them saw that the targets they had been chasing had split into two. Which side was the stocking? The Cleric who ran away was alone. Logically, he shouldn't have been the one to protect the stockings. But what if this was an unconventional trap?
This kind of problem, once tangled up, would become a circle, and there would be no end to it. They were still running and didn't have time to think about it. It was a question of right and wrong. Some people chose yes and others chose no. Thus, the players split up into two groups.
The normal players were able to keep up with Xiao Shiqin's group. A large part of the reason was that Ye Xiu and Zhang Jiaxing were in the lead. Thus, unless they ran out of stamina, the normal players were able to keep an eye on them. Zhang Jiaxing's current goal was to find a deserted place to throw a stocking. Of course, he wouldn't do it so openly. He caused a few players to run around. After a planned run, the players soon realized that they had lost track of him.
After shaking off the gamers, Zhang Jiaxing's next step was to find a secluded place to throw his stocking. He couldn't possibly throw it and be found quickly. If that was the case, it would be meaningless to fight for time.
Before Zhang Jiaxing could throw a stocking, Xiao Shiqin suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Ye Qiu and Zhang Jiaxing's group, who had been running in a very crude manner, suddenly changed their strategy.
"Keep an eye on them!" Xiao Shiqin reminded Wang Ze, who was still with him. However, with this reminder, he suddenly realized that something was wrong!
The original five-man team of Excellent Era had gone through so much trouble. At this stage, wasn't it only him and Wang Ze who could challenge Ye Qiu and Zhang Jiaxing?
"Wait, something's wrong!" Xiao Shiqin thought of this and hurriedly called out to Wang Ze.
"What's wrong?" Wang Ze's Flying Divine Lance had been moving with Aerial Fire. Rhythm was very important. He was maintaining it perfectly when he suddenly called out to Xiao Shiqin, so he regretfully stopped.
"Something's wrong," Xiao Shiqin said.
"What's wrong?" Wang Ze said.
"If we continue chasing, we might be in trouble." Xiao Shiqin was quite confident in his judgment. With Ye Qiu's guts, would he be afraid of a 2v2?
Instantly killing Shen Jian showed that Ye Xiu had a huge psychological and technical advantage over Excellent Era players. Wang Ze's group also seemed to have two people. Maybe in Ye Qiu's eyes, it was only 1.5 people? Or 1.2 people?
"But if we don't chase, they'll catch up to us." Wang Ze looked ahead. Ye Qiu and Zhang Jiaxing's group was getting farther and farther away. Then he looked behind him. The other teams were getting closer and closer.
With this reminder, Xiao Shiqin also looked back. His head hurt even more.
In their eyes, there was still Ye Qiu and Zhang Jiaxing in front of them. However, in the eyes of these players, their targets were probably only him and Wang Ze. If they chased now, they might fall into Ye Qiu's trap. If they didn't chase, they would have to think of a way to get rid of these people. Although the pressure wasn't great, it would still take some time. During this time, would Ye Qiu have any tricks up his sleeve? Even if he didn't have any tricks up his sleeve, this amount of time would be enough for them to disappear.
The more difficult it was to make a choice, the faster one had to make a choice. Xiao Shiqin also had a deep understanding of this. After a quick calculation, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Continue chasing!"
Ye Qiu wasn't the only one with guts. Xiao Shiqin had led Thunderclap, an average team, but they had been able to enter the playoffs time and time again. Their journey was definitely not a smooth one. Which of their results weren't obtained through taking risks? And every time, the one who had given such a risky order under pressure was always Xiao Shiqin.
In comparison, this was just a round of activities. What was it?
Xiao Shiqin made up his mind. There was no more hesitation in his mind. Gunner mechanics could also use Aerial Fire. However, now that he knew that Ye Qiu's side might have some problems, using Aerial Fire while running from the back and not paying attention to the front was a little careless. Xiao Shiqin immediately started sprinting. On the other hand, Wang Ze continued to use Aerial Fire. With Xiao Shiqin in front and behind, they could see the entire situation.
"Turn! Avoid looking. "
Ahead, Ye Qiu's team had temporarily disappeared from everyone's sight. This was a common method to shake off pursuers, but the two had rarely used it before. If he had known that they would do this, then Xiao Shiqin would have paid attention to the terrain and naturally made some predictions. At this moment, he still needed to make some judgments, but more importantly, he had to be on guard.
The two pro players had quite good awareness. It wasn't as if they hadn't been on guard at all. The two characters held their guns together. Wang Ze's Sharpshooter led the way, jumping out. He didn't care if he could see the target or not, he just randomly fired. The Mechanic behind him used Spiral Wings to fly up into the air, coordinating with the Sharpshooter. But when he rushed out to take a look, the other side didn't have any ambush and was running for their lives! This was also why it was easy to use this terrain to escape. Those who were running, whether there was an ambush or not, couldn't not be on guard against those who were chasing. Once on guard, it would waste a bit of time. The more you guarded, the more likely you would find that the target you were guarding against was already gone.
Xiao Shiqin wasn't so inflexible. He glanced at the terrain. They had been here before in Excellent Era. A Master Tactician was abnormally sensitive to terrain. Very quickly, Xiao Shiqin had already sketched out a few possible choices for the other side. As a result, he quickly sent the message in the team chat. The best way was for the others to quickly come to his aid. If there was a possibility of a 5v2, then going for a 2v2 was never Xiao Shiqin's fighting philosophy. If he insisted on this sort of equal competition, then the mediocre Thunderclap would probably never be able to achieve such a result.
"Roger!" In the team chat, Sun Xiang, Shen Jian, and even Zhang Jiaxing, who had gone to throw stockings, all replied.
Xiao Shiqin had just calmed down a bit when suddenly, two figures jumped out from the right. Before they even arrived, their guns rang out. They didn't say anything and directly attacked.
Lower Your Head.
None Dare Attack!
