Training

Zhou Yue only had two bullets left, yet the two people opposite him were firing as if bullets were free, having already taken several shots!

Disadvantage.

He was currently at an absolute disadvantage!

Zhou Yue knew that if the stalemate continued, he would be the only one to die. There was no point in continuing to hide here. He slowly lowered his pistol, raised his hands, and shouted, "I surrender!"

"I can give you all my supplies! Just don't kill me!"

"You must know, right? The supplies obtained after killing a player are random! I can give you all the supplies I have on me, as long as you don't kill me!"

It was indeed tempting, but this kind of rhetoric... Cheng Shuili had already heard it back during the novice protection period.

What that person said was much more sincere than Zhou Yue, but now, Cheng Shuili had already forgotten that person's name.

She coughed lightly and said loudly, "Kick your pistol away!"

Zhou Yue hesitated, but he also knew this might be his only path to survival. However, the pistol was vital. He frowned and thought for a long while before setting a condition: "You must promise you won't kill me!"

Cheng Shuili gave a light scoff, her attitude exceptionally firm: "You are not qualified to negotiate conditions with us."

These words were harsh!

But they were the truth!

In the end, Zhou Yue kicked the pistol away.

The pistol slid to the center of the highway, its metal casing gleaming coldly under the morning sun. Ailin quickly stepped forward to pick up the gun and nimbly removed the magazine, leaving only one bullet remaining.

She looked back at Cheng Shuili, and Cheng Shuili looked back at her.

Ailin was the professional for this kind of thing, right?

Cheng Shuili really had no experience!

"Now, walk out slowly," Ailin, having received the signal, immediately took charge. Her voice carried an unquestionable sense of oppression. "Raise your hands high and let me see every move you make."

As expected of a professional!

Xinxue peeked her head out from behind the vehicle, her face still pale.

She watched as Zhou Yue slowly walked out from behind his cover, the wound on his right shoulder staining his light-colored T-shirt red.

This man, who had been arrogant and overbearing just last night, was now filled with panic.

"I really know I was wrong," Zhou Yue’s voice trembled. "I was just acting on impulse..."

"Save the nonsense!" Ailin sternly interrupted him, the muzzle of her gun pointing steadily at the center of Zhou Yue's forehead.

Cheng Shuili noticed that Ailin’s index finger was already resting on the trigger. At this distance, with Ailin’s marksmanship, it was impossible to miss.

"Take off your backpack and put it on the ground, slowly." Ailin’s instructions were concise and cold.

Cold sweat beaded on Zhou Yue’s forehead as his left hand trembled while unbuckling the backpack straps on his chest.

The moment the backpack was about to slide off, he suddenly lunged forward! His right hand drew a dagger from behind his waist and he violently charged at the nearest person, Ailin!

"Watch out!" Xinxue’s scream pierced the air.

"Bang!"

Ailin pulled the trigger the instant Zhou Yue moved, and so did Cheng Shuili!

Two bullets; one precisely pierced his right shoulder blade, and the other struck his abdomen.

Zhou Yue staggered and fell to his knees, blood gushing from the two bullet holes. He looked up in disbelief, seeing the still-smoking muzzle of Cheng Shuili’s gun.

"You... don't keep your word..." Zhou Yue spat out bloody foam with every word he spoke.

"Tsk."

Cheng Shuili was truly speechless. Was he really going to accuse them of bad faith while he was dying?

Xinxue crawled out from her vehicle, only letting out a sigh of relief after confirming that Zhou Yue was truly dead. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Ailin, then at Cheng Shuili, and finally said to Cheng Shuili, "Boss, you're too amazing!"

Cheng Shuili smiled and replied modestly, "It was average."

Xinxue turned to Ailin, who was holding the revolver. "You must be Ailin!"

"I’m honored to have the Boss and Sister Ailin come here!"

"It's alright."

Cheng Shuili glanced at Xinxue. She was quite tall, only a bit shorter than Cheng Shuili, and now looked free and easy in her workwear.

It was just that she had been hiding in her vehicle like a turtle just moments ago, which immediately knocked three points off that cool image.

However, Cheng Shuili had no intention of blaming her. Bullets had no eyes; it was the right choice for her not to come out and add to the chaos.

It was just a pity—Cheng Shuili’s gaze fell on Zhou Yue’s corpse, which hadn't disappeared yet... she hadn't asked what this person wanted with her.

The group chatted for a few moments before returning to their vehicles.

It wasn't that they had nothing to say; it was simply too hot.

The other two people also saw the messages and sent several words of concern in the group chat.

【Wan Yi】: Are you okay? I was washing the pot just now and didn't see Xinxue’s message.

【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: I just woke up. Are you okay, Sister Xinxue? @Xinxue Chuji!

【Wan Yi】: @Angry Crow Takes Flight, how are things, Crow?

【Wan Yi】: @Ailin, did Ailin go too?

【Xinxue Chuji】: I didn't die, hahaha!

The two who had just been worried: "..."

Xinxue explained the general situation, while the parts where she had been playing the coward were supplemented by Ailin.

After this incident, Ailin was considered fully integrated into the team.

Cheng Shuili fanned herself in the vehicle, watching their chat and waiting for the Highway Merge to end.

Next time something like this happens, just having Ailin come over will be enough.

She can handle it completely.

Especially since they need to protect Qi Wanyi; the cook absolutely cannot have any problems!

Cheng Shuili only had one Designated Player Duel Card left in her hand, so she couldn't give it to Ailin for the time being.

This time, Xinxue was lucky to have guessed who came to kill her. If she hadn't guessed correctly, today might not have ended this way.

Looking at it this way, this card is quite troublesome.

No.

They can't be this lax anymore.

After some thought, Boss Crow decided on the team’s first collective activity!

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: @Ailin, I remember you served in the military before, right? How many years was it?

【Ailin】: Eight years.

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Very good. You can be the instructor.

【Wan Yi】: Instructor?

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: That’s right. I hope today’s incident doesn't happen again. Each of you is very important to this team, and I don't want to see anything happen to any of you.

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Ailin has already explained clearly how to use this card. Today, Xinxue knew who was coming, but what about next time? Just wait to die?

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Starting today, our team will conduct special training. Ailin’s strength is obvious to all, so she is the best person to serve as the instructor. Ailin can teach combat, how to use firearms, and you can determine exactly what to learn. There is only one point: they don't need to learn how to kill; they only need to learn how to survive.

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Any questions? Everyone.

【Ailin】: I have no problems.

【Wan Yi】: I don't have any questions, but I'm really not used to you suddenly talking so much.

【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: My physical education has never been very good, so it will be hard work for Sister Ailin!

【Xinxue Chuji】: Today really scared me to death, fortunately, Boss and Sister Ailin came! I also think I should learn some self-defense; the Boss is so thoughtful.
