The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 225 Three Stars

Huan Xian moved quickly, leaving no loose ends when his opponent was being decisive.

Jiang Hui and Zhou Xiuwen only heard three short gunshots before it seemed to be over.

Then the two saw Huan Xian pause in his hand as he pulled the trigger, and a muffled sound of doubt escaped his throat: "Hmm?"

Another shot rang out immediately, but this time the sound seemed a little different from the previous ones; it was a bit far away.
Zhou Xiuwen didn't think that much about it; he was concerned about Jiang Hui's situation.

Seeing that Huan Xian hadn't made a move for a while, Zhou Xiuwen couldn't help but use his mental power to tap him.

'Is it ready yet?'

'...'

Just as Zhou Xiuwen was about to say something, he heard Huan Xian say in a low voice, "Aren't you coming out yet?"

"Come out...come out of what?" Zhou Xiuwen and Jiang Hui, who was enduring the pain, were instantly drawn to the other's strange words. Who was Huan Xian talking to?

There was no response from the silent bushes, not even the sound of the wind.

No one?

“If you come out now, I can give you a three-star chance. If you haven’t decided yet, there’s nothing I can do. One, two…” Huan Xian was still talking to himself.

"Hey, wait a minute, why so suddenly? It takes me time to get up. How could you count so fast? You've already said 'two' before I've even finished saying 'one'." A slightly familiar voice rang out.

Jiang Hui, who was hiding behind the low rock, was stunned for a moment. Why did that voice sound so familiar?

“I need you to step forward. Stop hiding, I can see you. If I wanted to fight, I would have shot already, why wait until you made your move?” Huan Xian said impatiently.

"...What do you want to do? Why don't you just eliminate me? I know you're capable of doing it." Hillman was genuinely confused.

He deliberately lured Kent's gang here. And sure enough, everything went smoothly; those arrogant fools fell for the trap and chased after them. Then, just as he predicted, they were wiped out in one fell swoop through the enemy's hands.

The remaining one, the very culprit who initially caused his predicament, was also eliminated by Hillman himself.

As the man fell, locked down by the simulated bra, his eyes were still fixed on him, as if he couldn't believe that his supposedly invincible team had been tricked by Hillman and ended the match in such an dishonorable way.

Hillman watched with immense satisfaction. Weren't these guys the most fond of scheming and plotting? Treating others like pigs to be slaughtered, kicking them out the moment they proved useless, arrogant and condescending, their methods utterly despicable. They were clearly all capable, able to defeat others through fair and square means, yet they insisted on using such unpleasant methods. Didn't they ever consider that they too might experience such a frustrating moment?

It's not over yet.

He's really got a grudge against Kent now; he'll definitely find someone to ask him about it once he gets out.

However, his journey probably ended here. Although it was a little different from what he expected, the chaotic battle seemed to have just ended when he arrived here with his men, but the expert hidden in the shadows hit every shot and eliminated the four-man team, whose shooting skills were not bad.

Although somewhat unwilling, Hillman had to admit that he couldn't handle these four skilled shooters on his own. This was why he didn't choose to fight them head-on, but instead pathetically followed them all the way. In fact, he himself felt quite frustrated and more embarrassed than ever before.

Admitting that he was inferior to others was not an easy thing. But he was also very clear in his heart that it was almost impossible for him to take down the perfectly coordinated four-man team with his mediocre shooting skills. He had actually tried, but he was almost discovered and only managed to get away with it by luck.

By causing them trouble without being discovered, Hillman had already done the maximum amount of revenge he could.

Now he has completed his final revenge. These four confident fellows were ultimately ensnared by him and became nourishment for someone else, which will probably make them suffer for a long time.

Hillman didn't care whether he would be eliminated as a free kill, since he was already mentally prepared.

He couldn't even handle Kent and his group of four, let alone deal with this hidden big shot who could easily kill Kent and the others.

Hillman thought that making it this far was actually quite an achievement. Maybe he should just let them shoot him and be done with it... Well, that was still unlikely.

By the time Hillman realized what was happening, he had already subconsciously concealed his presence and used the terrain to hide.

Um... after all these days, he seems to have gotten used to hiding.

If the other party discovers it, there's really nothing that can be done. If they don't discover it, that's good, and it would be best if they could just leave this place without being discovered, then they would truly be free.

However, the other party seemed a bit strange, as if they had already anticipated his location and were calling out to him from afar.

come out?

Isn't this person being a bit too optimistic, trying to lure the enemy out using this method? This kind of trope has been overused; early popular films and television shows about ancient humans seemed to love including similar scenes, and it was quite a hit at one point.

He's not going out; only a fool would be tricked into going out.

The other party kept repeating the same thing over and over, and even threatened to hit him.

They're saying they'll give him three stars... who are they trying to fool?
If the other party had really discovered his whereabouts, they could have shot countless holes at him in the time it would have taken to gain three points. They could have just gone straight for the rankings; there was no need for this dawdling. Hillman muttered to himself, still thinking the other party was just trying to scare him—until the person started impatiently counting down.

As soon as the countdown began, Hillman knew something was wrong. He sensed that with the start of the countdown, an unseen aura seemed to lock onto him in that instant.

Even though he dared not move or see, he could feel as if a pair of eyes and a dark gun barrel were pointed at him. With just a flick of the other's finger, he would be eliminated.

This person wasn't lying to him after all; the other party had indeed located him and could act at any time.

Those who know the current affairs are handsome.

Even though Hillman didn't hold out much hope for this unknown enemy, the fact that the enemy hadn't attacked him the moment they spotted him meant that there must be something about him that attracted the enemy, or that the enemy needed him to do something or cooperate with them.

Three stars, what's the point of giving him three stars... What will happen after he finishes three stars? Hillman didn't have a definite answer, but his body instinctively made the choice for him.
