Chu Guang turned his head.

A strong man was standing at the door, his left arm firmly locked Night Ten's neck and his tied hands. His right hand held a pistol, the muzzle pressing against Night Ten's temple.

However, as soon as he said the phrase "let her go", two guns were quickly aimed at him.

Upon seeing this, the brawny man subconsciously hid behind Night Ten, yelling hurriedly.

"Don't move! Your companion is in my hands! I know you are strong, but can you still beat the bullet?"

Chu Guang holding the gun was dazed, and the corners of his mouth turned up unnaturally.

Strong? Me?

Hey, this is so embarrassing.

It was the first time someone praised him for being strong in the wasteland in more than five months.

"Chen Yang? You're not dead?!" Xia Yan stared at the man at the door.

The brawny man was obviously embarrassed, but he managed to squeeze a smile from his face.

"Hehe, I won't die that easily here. Wait there, I'll save you first!"

Hope rekindled in Xia Yan's eyes.

If possible, she certainly did not want to fall into the hands of these "primitives". She could imagine how she would be treated if she was captured by them.

Occasionally there were captured mercenaries who were redeemed from slave traders by teammates or insurance companies—that is—if they happened to be sold to Boulder City.

But even if they were still alive, they were no different from dead.

Whether it was mentally or physically.

Finally, a gap appeared between the brawny man's arms, and Night Ten, who was almost suffocated to death, didn't even take a breath.

He yelled while struggling desperately.

"Shoot! Shoot me! What are you waiting for! Fu**... This guy has body odor, it's so terrible!"

If the brawny man knew what this guy was yelling, maybe he would fire the pistol without any hesitation.

But it was a pity.

The man didn't understand, he only felt that the hostage was noisy.

Raising the handle of the pistol and smashing the back of the hostage's head, Chen Yang sternly scolded.

"Stop struggling!"

But how would Night Ten listen to him? Not to mention that he didn't understand what he was saying.

He couldn't feel pain at all when it was over the set limit, but because of the smash, he yelled even louder.

"Fire at me! Administrator, please don't worry about me, I can't die!"

Of course, I know you can't die.

Who do you think gave you access to the game?

Chu Guang rolled his eyes in his heart, but his face did not reveal any expression. He calmly looked at the brawny man named Chen Yang at the door and said lightly.

"I don't like being threatened. You'd better put your gun down and put your hands above your head and face the wall. Then I can spare your life."

Chen Yang said angrily.

"I'm not joking with you! I will really shoot!"

"Me too," Chu Guang looked at him calmly, "Do you want to try? We can count to three and do it together."

Xia Yan, who was leaning against the bar, couldn't stand it anymore. She didn't want her teammate, who managed to escape, to die because of her.

"Enough, Chen Yang, you can leave... Don't worry about me."

Chu Guang ignored her and said the first number softly.

"3."

Looking at Chu Guang, who was already counting down, a drop of cold sweat slipped across Chen Yang's forehead.

This lunatic!

Doesn't he care about the life of his companion at all!

And the hostage in his hand, with an expression that seemed eager to die, didn't look like a hostage at all.

"2."

They are crazy.

All of them are crazy!

"Wait a minute, stop, I have no intention of threatening you! You can have her, I only need one thing!"

Chen Yang admitted that he was scared.

Glancing at Xia Yan sitting on the ground, he quickly continued, "Give me the key she has, and I will release your man immediately when I get it!"

Chu Guang raised his eyebrows, a little curious.

"Key?"

"A magnetic card! She knows what I'm talking about!"

Chu Guang looked at Xia Yan who was lying on the ground, but the woman didn't look at him, she just looked at her former teammate blankly.

"So you're here for the key..."

"Instead of dying here for nothing, it's better to let me complete the commission."

Teammate?

This is a wasteland.

Originally, he planned to wait for the creeper to leave and then search the corpses of his teammates, otherwise he would not have played dead. He kept watching with cold eyes and waited until now to help her.

Chen Yang ignored the disappointed ex-teammate, and slowly backed away with the gun still against the hostage's temple, staring at the expression on Chu Guang's face.

"What do you think? A woman and your companion, I only need a key on her body! It's useless if you hold on to it anyway."

Chu Guang nodded.

"That makes sense."

It seems like a great deal.

But……

He did not need it.

Chu Guang looked at Xia Yan.

"Give it to him."

Seeing that the Administrator didn't shoot for a long time, and instead, he began to talk to the man, Night Ten struggled more intensely for fear that this NPC would compromise with the man for him.

"Don't worry about me! Ample Time, are you stupid? Shoot!"

I'm a player.

I'm not scared of dying!

Moreover, if he dies here, it will be considered a heroic sacrifice, the NPC's favorability toward him will increase rapidly.

"Motherfu... Don't move, let me aim at him."

Ample Time was nervous.

He didn't dare to move?

It was not that he couldn't bring himself to do it. In fact, killing his teammate was something that he did quite often in PUBG, but this game was not PUBG. After all, the administrator hadn't said anything, how would he dare to make a move?

What if he missed the key plot!

Xia Yan silently took out the bloody magnetic card from her pocket, which was handed to her by the captain before he died.

It stood to reason that it was impossible for Chen Yang to know that this key was on her.

Unless he had searched the captain's body.

Then she understood it all in an instant.

Xia Yan looked at her former teammate blankly. Compared to sadness or fear, she felt more numb in her heart.

Maybe he would end up miserable in the future. Like a dirty rag, she would probably be thrown in the corner waiting for mold or be sold to other slave traders by these barbarians until she could no longer work.

But she suddenly felt that these were not important anymore.

"Take it."

With the key between her fingers, she threw the key out.

Looking at the key at his feet, Chen Yang's eyes flashed with ecstasy, unable to conceal his greed. He stretched out his foot to step on it and wanted to kick it out of the door.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened to him.

Almost at the same time he stretched out his right foot, the hostage who was struggling fiercely in his arms suddenly slipped from his elbow, and knelt directly on the ground with one knee.

Before Chen Yang could react, there were two gunshots ringing from the side, one of which directly shot through his head, bursting out a blood mist in front of his forehead.

With eyes wide open, Chen Yang fell straight back, and he still didn't understand what happened even after he died.

"BOOM!!! Headshot!"

Throwing the barrel in his hand, Ample Time shouted excitedly.

‘He was hit by me. All your bullets flew to the street lights outside... You really need to train your aim." Chu Guang reloaded the rifle with a speechless expression.

He could not count on the marksmanship of these players.

Speaking of, this was the first time he had used the "GM" authority to kick a player offline.

Unexpectedly, this function was really easy to use.

Of course, if the player asked, he wouldn't admit it. At most, he would use the identity of a game designer to explain network connectivity issues.

"You.. Killed him..."

Xia Yan looked at Chu Guang stupidly, and obviously did not expect that he would shoot suddenly.

Chu Guang said impatiently.

"I've said it already, I don't like people threatening me, not to mention that I've already given him a chance."

Not to mention that this guy was pointing a gun at him.

While talking, Night Ten who was still kneeling on the floor suddenly convulsed and woke up with a dazed expression on his face.

"How did I lose the connection just now?"

Moving his gaze blankly and looking at the dead man behind him, Night Ten instinctively jumped from the ground.

"Fu*k, how did this guy die?"

Did he miss the plot again?!

Ample Time walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

"It may be due to the network connectivity issue, but it's great that you can log back in... A headshot, hehe, am I awesome?"

"Damn, that's incredible!"

Well.

It seemed that he didn't even need to explain it.

Withdrawing his eyes from the two players, Chu Guang felt that he was almost fully recovered, so he got up from the chair.

Walking to Chen Yang's body, Chu Guang reached out and picked up the blood-stained key and the dropped pistol by his feet.

The former was temporarily of no use to him, while the latter was a good thing.

Chu Guang played with the pistol for a while. It seemed that this thing should be semi-automatic. He did not know how powerful it was, but it should be decent enough.

"I'm going to leave, good luck."

Seeing Chu Guang talking to her, Xia Yan raised her head blankly.

"Aren't you taking me?"

Chu Guang asked rhetorically.

"Did I say that I would take you?"

Xia Yan was stunned.

This was completely different from what she had expected.

But now there was no time for her to think.

Seeing that the man named Chu Guang was really not joking and took his two loyal subordinates to the door, and thinking that she was going to be left here by herself, she suddenly panicked.

"You… are really not marauders?"

Chu Guang stopped and teased her.

"Are you disappointed?"

"Me," Xia Yan opened her mouth, embarrassed for a while, and continued with a dry cough, "I mean, you're the survivors nearby? Can you take me to your settlement?"

She had nowhere to go now anyway.

Wanting to walk back to Boulder City on one leg was far more ridiculous than going head-to-head with a creeper, let alone the fact that she couldn't go back.

Since the group in front of them were not marauders or slave traders, it wouldn't be bad to leave with them.

However, Chu Guang didn't want to take this burden with him.

Shelter's current medical conditions certainly cannot provide her with a mechanical prosthetic body.

Without a leg, she would not be able to do heavy work, and he would have one more mouth to feed. If he had spare food, he would prefer to recruit more players.

But at this moment, he heard a quiet conversation between the two players.

"This woman is a new NPC?"

"It's possible, but it's hard to say... It seems that the administrator doesn't plan to take her."

"But I think she can still be rescued."

"Indeed, it seems that she should be a mercenary. Even if she lost a leg, she has knowledge in guns and weapons, right? So maybe she'll become an NPC that sells weapons."

Emmm...

This seemed to make a lot of sense.

Chu Guang thought a little, and looked at Xia Yan.

"I'll just say it straight. Now you are just our burden. Even if I bring you to a nearby survivor settlement, your fate will not be much better than death."

Xia Yan bit her lip and lowered her head.

This was the truth.

Needless to say, she could imagine what she would end up with.

Looking at this silent woman, Chu Guang continued.

"Of course, if you have a skill, I can take you… As long as you're willing to work for me."
