Poverty makes me capable of anything.

A player who witnessed this scene widened his eyes; it was GTN's Sandman, and he immediately raised his gun.

bang bang bang...

After a round of gunfire, the player fell to the ground, unwilling to accept defeat.

The respawn time has been reduced to half an hour, leaving you only able to sit in the fountain and rage helplessly.

"Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

"Those outsiders think they're so great? Today I'm going to teach them a lesson!" Boswell grinned cruelly. "We, the locals, are the masters of this world, not them!"

Bring warmth to strangers with guns and cannons.

Fully leverage the guiding role of the sand mining team!

Don't rush to take the stuff; kill those little rats from Bureau 217 first.

Boswell's firm adherence to these three core principles gave Gino, who was looking to find opportunities amidst the chaos, a real headache.

"If things really come to a head, let's retreat."

"Retreat? They're after us. Do you think we can escape from so many pursuers?" Gino's face darkened.

It wasn't just because of the sneak attack, but also because of the team members' unusual behavior.

"I'm not leaving! You can leave if you want, but I'm not leaving! My enemy is right in front of me, and I swear I won't rest until I get my revenge!" Qin Shuiyan's eyes were bloodshot, as if she had been up for several nights in a row.

"Calm down, Qin Shuiyan. Anger won't solve anything!" Gino snapped.

Qin Shuiyan chuckled: "Anger can't solve problems, but it can help me remember the past."

"Remember that you are currently 217..."

"Stop talking so much nonsense." Even a docile sheep can turn into a demon in the face of hatred, let alone Qin Shuiyan. "The reason we joined Bureau 217 is not for any grand cause. Bureau 217 has never been an organization recognized by the higher-ups. Those rules and regulations are superfluous to us."

"you……"

Qin Shuiyan walked out.

"I'll stop her," Meng Lan said.

"Your robot..."

"I've activated my counterattack mode. Now, I'll leave the rest to fate."

Meng Lan hurriedly ran out.

"Sigh." Gino sighed. How could he not be angry? He certainly wouldn't be able to remain calm if he saw the Eclipse Pirates.

Just as Qin Shuiyan said, the 217 Bureau operates like a normal government agency, but they have never been part of the regular staff, and they originally didn't need to consider so many things.

But now that he's the team leader, he has to consider more things.

The pirates, who had launched a surprise attack, ravaged the outskirts of the Edland settlement for quite some time before finally encountering substantial resistance.

First, the news spread, and the players who returned to the respawn point picked up their weapons as soon as they came out. In addition, the robot group that Meng Lan had arranged in advance also played a certain role.

Although there are many pirates, their strength varies greatly. The powerful ones, like Boswell, have their own BOSS panel and are high-level, so they can easily take on dozens of players by themselves. The weak ones are just level 40, and if there are more than ten of them without coordination, they will just be easy prey for the players.

"We must hold on, or this respawn point will be useless!"

"Let's stall that boss for a bit. We absolutely can't let the people from Bureau 217 get wiped out."

The task has been issued.

The players went all out for the mission!

"Although the battle was fierce, we still lost in the end. The difference in numbers was too great, and the pirates seemed to have noticed the special nature of the respawn point."

An Ran stood quietly to the side, not in a hurry to make a move.

The sniper rifle's muzzle could be pointed at mission targets, at the player, or even at the pirates.

They're on the same side now, but they won't be for long.

Killing a few people to gain experience is a good idea.

Discovering the City of Ether made Anran feel very secure; no one knew that she had hidden a giant mech.

No matter what schemes or tricks you have, I'll crush them all with one punch!

It's a bit cheesy, but still concise.

“It seems those guys from Bureau 217 aren’t planning on leaving.” Heloise quietly appeared beside An Ran.

"That's about right." An Ran nodded. "You don't need to go back there anymore."

“Mm,” Heloise replied.

Victory is certain!

At this moment, a dying player shouted his "last words" and then rushed towards the pirates who were besieging him, clutching a bomb.

Boom!

This action immediately cleared out a space.

Following suit, the players' suicide attacks slowed down the pirates' advance, but also thoroughly enraged Boswell.

"Damn it, point all the cannons at that square. You think you can come out from there? We'll blow you all to bits!"

After the bombardment, the square was reduced to ruins, and dozens of players who had just respawned were instantly sent back to the fountain.

"We can't hold on any longer, the disparity in numbers is too great."

"Looks like we're going to die here. I just hope what happens here won't have too much of an impact on the front lines," Gino said bitterly. "The target is Boswell. If we can kill him, we still have a chance!"

"Let's go, there's nothing more to say!"

In the tavern, all 217 players took their best weapons and left.

Regardless of anger or not, in the end, they still had to make the same decision as Qin Shuiyan.

"How will you know if you don't try?"

On the virtual screen, a red box has locked onto Boswell's head.

Qin Shuiyan held her breath and focused her mind, her finger slowly approaching the trigger.

Meng Lan sat behind the railing, her petite body completely hidden. She was tense, ready to take Qin Shuiyan away at any moment. At the same time, several hoverboards loaded with bombs were approaching Boswell's location on her wristband.

boom!

The sharp bullet emerged from the barrel, easily bridging the distance between itself and Boswell.

The shot was aimed at the right eye. Even if the body could withstand the bullet, Boswell's eyes would definitely not be able to withstand such a fierce impact.

Unfortunately, Qin Shuiyan was unaware that Boswell was considered a mini-boss in this stage of the game.

The villains in games are never easy to kill, otherwise players wouldn't get the satisfaction of defeating them.

When the bullet was about five meters away from Boswell's body, it suddenly seemed to get stuck in the mud, struggling to move forward, but in the end Boswell still managed to remove it easily.

"How is this possible?" Qin Shuiyan was completely dumbfounded.

"Don't just stand there, run!"

Meng Lan darted out. Although she was short, she had no problem dragging Qin Shuiyan. Like a nimble little monkey, she pulled Qin Shuiyan and quickly jumped to the roof of the neighboring house.

At that moment, Boswell launched a bomb.

"Boom!"

The bungalow was inevitably shattered, and the falling stones covered Meng Lan, but fortunately she was not injured.

"Ok?"

Just as Boswell was about to press forward, several hoverboards suddenly rushed out from the side of the street: "Get out of the way!"

The shout had barely faded when the hoverboard exploded.

Not right.

An Ran, who was looking into the distance, noticed that the fluctuations at the center of the explosion were abnormal. Sure enough, after the explosion, Boswell was only slightly soiled.

"There must be a mud-like field around the body that can reduce the impact of kinetic energy, but it's definitely not at the level of a field," An Ran murmured.

Domains are talent skills that martial artists and superhumans can only learn after reaching level 100.

Boswell has the right to look down on players; he's not so arrogant because he wants to die sooner.

"If kinetic weapons don't work, would energy weapons be more effective?"

Qin Shuiyan also decisively switched to a different gun.

Including those players who were stunned.

"Holy crap, no wonder he's the BOSS, even a sniper rifle is ineffective."

"Change to laser treatment."

whoosh-

Boswell avoided it; he had already located Qin Shuiyan's position.

"Since he dodged it in advance, it means the energy weapon is still effective. In short, we absolutely cannot let him kill the people from Bureau 217, otherwise the mission will fail."

He fantasized about snapping his enemy's neck, but when he actually tried, Boswell found himself entangled with those annoying strangers.

"You annoying thing, get out!"

As if a time-slowing device had been activated, every player who approached Boswell began to evade him, their strength already inferior to his, and now it was even more pronounced.

Killing them is incredibly easy.

"Haha, Captain is invincible!"

"The ignorant stranger actually tried to fight the captain."

"You little brat, take this flashbang!"

"I'll also give you the poison gas bomb I've been hoarding for a long time!"

Use your sharp mind.

After discovering that melee combat and kinetic weapons were ineffective, the player immediately changed tactics.

"Right now."
