Chapter 1048: Chapter 1048

"If there are no issues with the competitors from both sides, let’s have the Red Team members enter the battlefield first. The entire match will last for three hours, so make the most of it."

As soon as these words fell, Qin Fang signaled the staff to open the iron gate, allowing the Red Team members to enter first.

"Group Leader Tang, I’ll be waiting for you inside. Don’t disappoint me."

Before entering, Wan Yong gave Tang Ming an arrogant glance.

Tang Ming rolled his eyes. Firearms were his specialty, and he didn’t believe that Wan Yong was proficient in them too. Yet, this guy dared to threaten him; how amusing.

"Bastard, don’t let me catch you, or I’ll bite you to death."

Fu Renjie looked venomously at Shen Yan; after getting shot for no reason, it still hurt severely below.

"Hmph, I’ve got you remembered."

Shen Yan squinted, memorizing Fu Renjie’s physique and appearance distinctly.

Qian Bujun gritted his teeth, glaring at Lin Canghai. "You got the upper hand in the previous duel; this time, I’m going to kill you."

"Heh, just don’t have a sudden episode. Inside, there’s no one to aid you."

Upon hearing this, Qian Bujun almost spat blood; this stain on his reputation seemed impossible to wash away.

"You’ve all got something to say; I truly don’t know what to add?"

Before entering, Zhao Tianba hesitated for a while and then roared, "Dark Group folks, just come on! Watch how I’ll make you despair in this round."

Hearing this, Tang Ming and the others all simultaneously raised their middle fingers at Zhao Tianba, feeling utterly indifferent to such attention-seeking individuals.

Thus, the Red Team members all entered the battlefield, and then the gate closed, giving these people a chance to delve into the battlefield.

"Brothers, the Ming Group guys will definitely find a place to ambush us first inside. Let’s discuss a strategy to avoid falling into their trap."

Lin Canghai immediately called everyone to gather, earnestly analyzing the situation.

"In such circumstances, any strategy would be passive."

Shen Yan sneered, "The only way to turn the tables is to act separately, catching them off guard."

"That’s not how it should be; after all, this is a team battle. If we act separately, how can we collaborate as a team?"

Lin Canghai shook his head repeatedly.

"Team collaboration is nonsense. The opponents already have the upper hand; if we move together, we’ll just be sitting ducks."

Shen Yan argued, not backing down.

"I agree with Shen Yan’s perspective. At times , if we want a breakout, we have to win by surprise." Ouyang Xiao and Gao Ya all supported Shen Yan’s opinion.

"Hey, you’re just support members. Isn’t it inappropriate to order us official contestants around?"

Wu Xiaoyu scolded with a disgruntled face.

"Exactly, exactly. None of us are experts with firearms; it’s better to unite, especially among the Dark Group members."

Lin Canghai chimed in hurriedly.

"If you’re so capable, why did you call us here?"

Ouyang Xiao cynically retorted.

Lin Canghai was momentarily lost for words, looking helplessly at Tang Ming.

"Respond to attacks accordingly. Let’s just take it step by step."

Tang Ming yawned, actually agreeing with Shen Yan and the others inwardly.

The more complex the terrain, the more they should split up; only by doing so can they break the enemy’s established strategy.

Ten minutes passed, the gate opened again, and Tang Ming and the others entered the battlefield together.

As soon as they entered, Shen Yan, Ouyang Xiao, and Gao Ya disappeared without a trace.

"Damn, those women are too disobedient, just running off like that."

Lin Canghai grumbled with a face full of frustration.

"Forget them; let’s take care of ourselves, try to lose as few points as possible, and then consider scoring."

Wu Xiaoyu held onto her gun, watching vigilantly ahead.

"Tang Ming, your... where are your people?"

Lin Canghai turned to complain to Tang Ming, only to find Tang Ming had vanished as well.

He quickly took out a walkie-talkie to call, but no one responded.

"Damn, what kind of leader has what kind of subordinates; this is too much."

Lin Canghai mumbled speechlessly.

"Ignore them; let’s advance cautiously and prepare for battle."

Long Ao, who was along the path tracking some snapped branches, reminded them without turning his head, then moved forward with his gun.

Lin Canghai, Wu Xiaoyu, and the other three support members protected one another, exploring forward in formation.

"Brother Long, do you think if we just stay here until the match ends, would that work?"

Wu Xiaoyu asked uncertainly while advancing.

"Then this match would be meaningless, and even if we don’t go to hunt the Red Team, they’ll find a way to come for us."

Long Ao shook his head without turning around.

"Right! If we don’t attack first, they’ll have to come for us, giving us the advantage to ambush them."

Lin Canghai had a sudden insight and excitedly said, "I propose we stop advancing now and set up an ambush here. What do you think?"

"This... this is actually a solution?"

Long Ao looked around at the surrounding dense forest and decisively said, "Let’s do it. Find a place to hide immediately."

"I’m so clever, as long as we... ah!"

Excitedly, Lin Canghai stood up straight, but halfway through his sentence, he screamed and fell to the ground, twitching.

"Not good, they’re ambushed at the entrance. Everyone, be careful."

Long Ao shouted in surprise, quickly rolling to find cover.

Just as Long Ao hid behind a large rock, he heard a wave of screams from behind. Wu Xiaoyu and the others were all shot and twitching on the ground.

"Damn, those shameless jerks actually set an ambush at the entrance."

Long Ao hid behind the rock, anxiously watching as his five companions fell instantly.

Three seconds later, Lin Canghai climbed up from the ground, "Damn these bastards, so despicable, come out for a duel, damn it."

"Idiot, find cover quickly; they can attack again in ten seconds."

Long Ao urged anxiously.

"What ten seconds... ah!"

The next moment, Lin Canghai shrieked and fell to the ground again, barely standing for ten seconds before collapsing once more.

With Lin Canghai’s previous example, Wu Xiaoyu and the others scattered and fled upon recovery, trying to find safety within ten seconds. Unfortunately, there seemed to be no ten-second delay at all, as they were shot again after only three seconds.

The Red Team’s ambush was set up ingeniously, with a broad line of sight, giving Wu Xiaoyu and the others no chance to react.
