Chase Game

Liu Hao looked over in surprise. If it were Li Qingping who said this, it would be fine, but why did Du Hengbo trust Ling Yi so much?

He recalled that when he first heard about a newcomer who had killed his pursuers, he thought it was impossible, so he had to see it for himself.

When he saw Ling Yi, his feelings were complicated.

When he and Ling Yi were ordinary people, it was like looking in a mirror; apart from their appearance, they were almost identical in every other aspect.

But why is there such a big difference when you're a player?

He recalled his first game as a fugitive; not only did he fail to turn the tables, but he also managed to win by hiding and dodging.

Compared to this, the joy of victory is almost gone.

Now, Ling has moved him to a more important position while placing himself in a more important one. Does this mean he doesn't trust Ling to do the job?

He couldn't help but think about the question, but he quickly dismissed it from his mind.

Once the foundation of trust is shaken, it can collapse in an instant. Moreover, the captain has said that Ling Yi is very likely to be a future teammate.

Perhaps we should be considering a more practical question: if it were me, could I light one firework in the middle of the field and then go to a distance to light another one?

Based on the information relayed back by Li Qingping and Tang Yuebai, Du Hengbo conducted a simple data analysis and concluded that, judging from the data on paper alone, he was far inferior to the pursuers.

He wasn't sure he could do it, but Ling Yi took on the responsibility voluntarily, so why not give it a try?

Liu Hao convinced himself, so he said, "Okay, I'll try my best to light up a central firework to relieve some of the pressure on you."

Ling Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, and replied with a smile, "Good brother, trust me."

He knew that changing generals on the eve of battle was a major taboo in military strategy, and his current actions were no different from changing generals on the eve of battle.

Zhang Qiang is alright. He's a good brother since childhood, so we have a foundation of trust. Besides, he's straightforward and doesn't overthink things.

Liu Hao is a bit of a stickler for details, and he's also quite quick-witted. The only problem is that he might get stuck on a single point.

In fact, he was unsure of Liu Hao's abilities, so he didn't dare to give him the second-to-last spot.

Furthermore, no one had been able to survive more than ten minutes with the pursuers, and the group no longer needed to worry about how to get back; they felt fortunate to have managed to light all the fireworks.

As for the second phase, well, let's see if it can be started first.

However, ten seconds before Zhang Qiang appeared, Tang Yuebai sent an unexpected message: "I'll hold off the pursuers for the last thirty seconds, then it's up to you."

Thirty seconds. Even if we start counting from now, there will still be twenty seconds left after Liu Hao sets off.

Liu Hao's right hand rested on the doorknob, his expression serious and solemn.

After Tang Yuebai lit the fourth firework, she no longer had the ability to run. Her pursuers were very strong, forcing her to reveal her trump cards time and time again.

Now, she has reached a dead end and is just waiting for a final desperate gamble.

Tang Yuebai's crescent moon mark on her forehead has now become a full moon mark. Because she absorbed the power of the moon, her mark has also turned slightly red.

She could sense the frenzy and danger contained within this power; if she were the pursuer, she would certainly be able to unleash its full potential.

However, as a fugitive, her power is unlikely to harm her pursuers; it can only be used for control and restraint.

The Tibetan mastiff could also sense that the woman in front was running out of energy, and its speed gradually decreased.

He learned his lesson the hard way last time, so he has to be extra careful this time.

However, can one escape the moonlight simply by being careful?

The full moon mark on Tang Yuebai's forehead gradually faded, while a moon-shaped mark appeared under the Tibetan Mastiff's feet that it couldn't shake off.

The moon disc fills clockwise until the mark on Tang Yuebai's forehead completely disappears, at which point the moon disc is considered fully filled.

The Tibetan Mastiff was instantly frozen in place, unable to move. Without the blessing of the moon's power, Tang Yuebai's speed also plummeted, almost to the running speed of an ordinary person.

This would inevitably lead to her being pursued by her killers, but in exchange for such a price, she managed to restrict their movements for thirty seconds!

The Tibetan Mastiff was frozen in place. Every muscle and bone in its body was straining, but the moon disc below held it firmly in place, preventing it from moving.

To make matters worse, he caught wind of another fugitive.

"This is never going to end!"

The Tibetan Mastiff gritted its teeth and squeezed out those words with a fierce expression.

He knew things were going badly, and he was finally about to reveal his first trump card.

One of the effects of his hunter-exclusive skill, [Tibetan Mastiff], is activated: [Unbound]!

This skill is specifically designed to break free from binding and control skills.

He had used this skill to escape from danger many times when facing the Chosen One, but unfortunately the Chosen One had too many tricks up his sleeve, and he simply couldn't overcome them all.

Surely this fugitive won't have that many control skills anymore, right?

The skill was successfully activated. The counter-clockwise flowing moon disc under the Tibetan Mastiff's feet suddenly got stuck. Then, a few seconds later, cracks appeared on the moon disc with a "crackling" sound!

A few seconds later, the lunar disk could no longer hold on and shattered like a mirror.

Tang Yuebai, who hadn't run far, suffered a backlash from the skill, spitting out a mouthful of blood and staggering as he fell to the ground.

Knowing she couldn't escape, she quickly relayed the message to her teammates that the pursuers had escaped before the Tibetan mastiff's claws struck.

[Player Tang Yuebai has died.]

The system's announcement, devoid of any emotion, cast a shadow over the faces of everyone in the safe house.

Whoosh! Snap!

Liu Hao, who was outside, lit the fifth firework nearby, and then, following the arrow guidance of Du Hengbo's skill, rushed at full speed towards the central firework point furthest from Tang Yuebai's death site.

Tang Yuebai lit fireworks three times, but the delay was short-lived. Moreover, the pursuers were still in the central region, and Liu Hao also had to rush there. It was very likely that they wouldn't even be able to delay for five minutes.

At this moment, Ling Yi made another decision: in three minutes, he would use the [Two-Minute Time Reduction Card].

Zhang Qiang should go out early and split up with Liu Hao to see who has the chance to set off a firework display in the middle of the country.

But to his surprise, Liu Hao suddenly burst into action, not only without any warning sounds, but also managing to ignite the sixth firework in the middle of the area at the last moment.

Although he was gone as soon as he lit the fire, Ling Yi still couldn't help but give Liu Hao a thumbs up. What an awesome teammate!

Then, he can use the [Time Reduction Card] in his hand after Zhang Qiang leaves.

As soon as Zhang Qiang went out, he summoned a tiger, and rode on its back, looking as majestic as a general.

However, he had no time to show off now. After settling in, he urged the tiger toward the last nearby fireworks display.

Ling Yi also used the [Time Reduction Card] immediately after he left, which meant that Zhang Qiang only needed to stall for three minutes to get a perfect score.

Whoosh! Snap!

This is the seventh time the fireworks have been lit!
