In the forest engulfed in flames, it wasn't just the stags that were startled.
But when everyone saw a beast burning with flames charging over, their subconscious reaction was to dodge. Who would be so reckless as to ride it directly?
The pursuing enemy troops concentrated their fire on Illusion Moon.
Behind Illusion Moon, the three teammates who had already gathered quickly counterattacked, providing cover for him.
The bullets from the Type 38 rifle struck the frenzied stag, only making it even more violent!
Illusion Moon also stopped wasting bullets.
The stag wildly charged over eighty meters, knocking down the enemy directly in front.
Illusion Moon, however, released the antlers a moment before the collision, and with one shot, blew away an enemy within three meters!
Then the perspective went haywire, the world spinning.
He knew he had been thrown off, so he simply closed his eyes and, relying entirely on instinct, gripped the Mosin-Nagant rifle in his hand, performing a blind bolt action!
Ejecting the spent cartridge and loading a new round, all in one smooth motion!
When he opened his eyes again, the scene had stabilized.
A bullet whizzed past, and a fleeting burning sensation came from his waist. Then the surrounding muscles became somewhat numb, and his vision tilted slightly to the left.
Illusion Moon had never experienced anything like this in real life.
But at this moment, he instinctively squatted down, half-kneeling on the ground, and stabilized his perspective again.
Then came—shooting!
"Bang!"
Pull the bolt, reload.
"Bang!"
Second shot.
The opponent had already fallen.
But he still didn't stop, quickly pulling the bolt and aiming at the last standing enemy twenty meters away.
They had wiped out this pursuit squad.
But that didn't mean they had cleared the level—under the game mechanics of the second level, such pursuit squads would be endless and increasingly numerous.
It would only end when they rushed out of the forest.
But now no one cared about that; everyone was super excited:
"Awesome, boss! War God mode activated!"
"Directly a triple kill! Invincible!"
"How did you think of that? I never imagined that beasts could be ridden!"
"I just saw a bear over there, should we try to ride it?"
… …
Illusion Moon also felt excited and thrilled.
Perhaps it was because he was too excited, his vision was still blood red.
"Wait a minute." Orthopedic Bro He Hao was the first to realize the problem, "Why is your waist spurting blood?"
"?" Illusion Moon looked down and saw that what he had previously thought was a graze wound caused by a bullet was actually a penetrating wound.
Having been burned all the way and then fallen from the stag's back, enduring collision damage, his health was already low.
Now the last bit was exhausted, and before he could explain, his eyes went dark, and he died on the spot.
However, thanks to the experience optimization of the trial mode, he only waited 15 seconds before respawning.
—And directly respawned next to his three teammates.
As a price, all the supplies he had collected before, except for the rifle, bullets, and water bottle, were gone.
But that wasn't a big problem.
—There were four supply packs lying on the ground, waiting for them to collect.
The four people enthusiastically began to collect supplies.
"Entrenching tool?" Illusion Moon looked at the system prompt, "[A formidable melee weapon, also usable for quickly digging trenches.]"
He picked up the entrenching tool with bewilderment and shoveled it into the ground in front of him!
A [ x x ] pit immediately appeared in the ground.
The edges of the pit weren't perfectly neat either but had been specially treated, making it look like he hadn't just swung the shovel once but had dug the pit out one shovel at a time.
He tried to reach out and touch it, and again, unsurprisingly, he felt a touch that perfectly matched his intuition—
The smooth yet slightly sticky surface of the soil after being cut by the sharp iron shovel.
What's even more outrageous is: when he slid his hand from top to bottom, he could even feel the "sticky" sensation increasing in intensity.
The further down, the higher the moisture content in the soil.
Illusion Moon was incredulous.
He wielded the shovel, one scoop after another, and in no time, he had dug a trench several meters long.
"Illusion Moon, what are you doing?" The three teammates, having finished looting the corpses, looked at Illusion Moon's antics in confusion.
"We should go. Although we have gas masks, the system warns that the temperature is too high, and if we stay any longer, we'll start taking continuous environmental damage."
"The enemies should have respawned too."
"Let's go, let's go." Illusion Moon clipped the shovel to his waist and immediately felt his belt sink down, as if the weight had really transferred from his hand to his waist.
But after running with his teammates for a while, the weight on his waist disappeared again.
—Not disappearing instantly, but little by little, slowly disappearing.
The change was very smooth. If he hadn't been particularly attentive, he probably wouldn't have noticed this detail.
"What did you guys find?"
"Haha, I picked up a command saber." Old Bro Zheng Jun drew his saber with a swoosh, "Top-tier loot! Although I can't use it."
"I picked up bandages and a sake jug. The bandages are self-explanatory, healing supplies."
Another old bro, Yu Zhehan, said while running and panting.
"The sake jug is quite fun. The system description says that sake can relieve pain, reduce adverse reactions after injury, and also be used as fuel or made into Molotov cocktails. But... Haha, but because it's Izumo sake, the alcohol content is too low to ignite, so it can only be used for drinking."
"As for me..." Orthopedic Bro He Hao took out a special glove with iron claws and put it on, "I found this."
"What is it?" Huan Yue asked, puzzled. "A melee weapon? For scratching people?"
"No, this is a [Climbing Claw]. According to the description, it's for climbing trees or traversing special terrain."
"The problem is..." He Hao said, glancing up at the burning canopy above.
"Wouldn't you get burned to death climbing up with this thing?"
The group could only fight and run, until they crossed the burning border and entered an area that had not yet been ignited.
The moment they rushed out, a tragic howl of a wild beast came from behind them again.
The newest novels are first published on !
Looking back, a wild boar, also set ablaze, charged over, wailing.
"Give it to me! Give it to me! Let me try!" Zheng Jun, clutching his command knife, excitedly went up to intercept it.
The instant they made contact, he wanted to imitate Huan Yue and ride it.
But he suddenly discovered a problem—
"Where... where do you grab a wild boar?"
Wild boars don't have horns on their heads!
He could only try to grab its ears.
He was mentally prepared for failure, but unexpectedly, he succeeded!
"Hahahaha!" Zheng Jun laughed excitedly, even drawing his command knife and waving it in his hand. "From now on, please call me Wild Boar Rider, haha!"
He even wanted to launch a counter-charge against the pursuing enemies!
Huan Yue stopped him in time, because Huan Yue had a new idea—
"Let's fight a positional battle!"
"I'll dig trenches, He Hao, you climb a tree and get a high vantage point, Zheng Jun, you put out the fire on the wild boar first, and then charge when the little devils get close!"
"Let's see how many enemies we can eliminate at most."
Zheng Jun immediately pulled out the water bottle from his waist and extinguished the fire on the wild boar.
Then, he sheathed his knife, switched to his gun, and counterattacked with Yu Zhehan, covering Huan Yue as she dug the pit.
He Hao then nimbly climbed the tree.
—
Inside the exhibition hall, the director had already switched the screen on the main display to their small battlefield.
— Previously, when Huan Yue rode the Flame Giant Deer for a counter-charge, taking on three enemies at once in the blink of an eye, the director had already focused the camera on them.
It was just that at this moment, there were too many players gaming at the same time in the exhibition hall, and there were quite a few exciting moments, so the camera was later shifted to others.
After the Flame Giant Deer, the director captured many more exciting scenes—
One team got 3 engineer shovels and directly started digging on the spot, wanting to dig a tunnel out of the forest.
As a result, due to the lack of reference objects, they dug a huge arc underground, and when they emerged from the ground, they even directly bumped into the enemy's face.
One player surprisingly discovered—
Almost all collected tools and resources can be further interacted with.
Guns can be disassembled, shovels can dig soil, wine can be drunk, beasts can be hunted, wood can be burned…
Even the bandages used for healing can be burned!
So he put on a gas mask and started cooking on the spot in the burning forest!
God knows what he was thinking, anyway, he collected wood, lit it, and started grilling meat, and also took off his steel helmet, poured water into it, and threw in some leaves to boil it as tea.
What's even more outrageous is: the three teammates he matched with on the spot not only weren't angry, but also supported him tremendously!
Each one desperately covered him.
When the water really boiled and he used a kettle to take the "tea" and drank it, the players waiting in the exhibition hall cheered in unison.
The enthusiasm of the atmosphere was almost no less than when Huan Yue scored a triple kill!
But at this time, the cheers were not entirely for this player.
— A large number of praises were given to the development team.
As everyone knows:
Natural laws do not exist in the game world.
Anything that can happen in the game world is because the development team has set up the underlying code on the game engine, and the development team has also set up attribute parameters for all interactive items.
Obviously, the development engine used by "King of War" not only has a delicate and amazing physical collision effect, but also excels in chemical reactions!
And the development team really set attribute parameters for all interactive items.
— Only in this way can the incredible degree of freedom in the game be achieved.
Kabo and a large number of players sat in the waiting area, watching the game screen on the display, their eyes widening.
They don't know Li Xingyun's talent as a programmer in the development and tuning of the game engine, they don't know how much effort he has put into Dream Building in the past two months, and in his own studio in the past two years.
They don't even know how much enthusiasm the failed idealists in the "King of War" development team have invested in this project, and how critical they are of themselves and their colleagues when working!
But they can intuitively feel it—the powerful technology and amazing ambition of this development team!
But the real players are most happy to see this kind of ambition!
Especially when the development team shows strength that matches their ambition.
"It should be like this! Game developers should put their energy into technology research and development and game design, instead of engaging in so-called sexual minorities and diversification!"
Kabo watched the battle on the screen with excitement.
On the screen, He Hao stood on a tree branch, hugging the trunk, shooting from a high vantage point.
Huan Yue and Yu Zhehan squatted in the trenches, frantically pulling bolts, firing guns, and moving, covering their teammates.
Zheng Jun charged forward on the wild boar, slashing at the enemy's face with a knife!
He also let out a hearty laugh!
Kabo felt itchy in his heart as he watched.
But beside him, his Izumo friend's expression became more and more complicated…
Thanks to [Rain Mirror] for the 1500 point reward.
