80 A Night of Mad Slaughter
Upon hearing this, Li Yu suddenly raised his head. He met Mo Xue’s gaze and smiled casually. Then, he continued to lie in his sleeping bag and closed his eyes to rest.
Mo Xue’s face suddenly turned red and she subconsciously turned around. Li Yu was indeed extremely good-looking. Mo Xue had also fallen in love with him previously, but she could not pluck the ice cold flower. She was just thinking about it.
Moreover, now that Bai Feng was already in front of her, Mo Xue felt that it was better for her to stabilize one first.
Just like that, the group chatted and ate some compressed food from time to time. They actually did not encounter any zombies for a long time.
!!
Time passed bit by bit, and it was finally ten o’clock in the evening. When everyone was relieved, the long-awaited electronic voice finally sounded again.
“Players, please take note that night has finally fallen. The zombies have evolved a new skill, ‘Resurrection’. All zombies will participate in the game. At the same time, the restrictions on the zombies’ movement will be lifted. All zombies can run. The method of killing them will still be using water guns to attack or destroy their heads. The game will end at six o’clock sharp tomorrow morning. At that time, we will choose the final winner. Players, please be prepared. The Midnight Battle will officially begin in five seconds. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, the game begins!”
The series of announcements caught everyone off guard. The five-second countdown only gave them time to react, but it was not enough for everyone to escape.
Li Yu’s reaction was the fastest. When the game started counting down, he had already run under the tree. He did not care about his sleeping bag and began to climb up with all his might.
There was another who reacted quickly and followed suit. Finally, at the end of the countdown, he successfully went up the tree and hid himself.
The remaining people were not so lucky. The moment the countdown ended, countless zombies rushed over from all directions. The special effects makeup on the two of them had obviously been touched up by the makeup artists again, making them look even more terrifying under the moonlight.
The people who were originally discussing excitedly how to kill the zombies immediately panicked. Screams kept coming, making the night look even more terrifying.
“Zhang Wen, eliminated.”
“Hu Xi, eliminated.”
…
The emotionless electronic voice kept announcing the names of the eliminated people. Almost no one who was still on the lawn was spared.
Bai Feng and Mo Xue were hiding a distance away from them. When the countdown started, Bai Feng reacted. However, it was completely unrealistic to climb a tree with Mo Xue. All he could do was buckle the sleeping bags on the two of them and pull a little of the surrounding bushes and grass over, hoping to muddle through.
Fortunately, the sky was already completely dark. After the zombies killed the people on the grass, they left directly and did not check other locations at all.
There was finally no movement around. Li Yu and the other person on the tree also climbed down. They looked at each other and walked to Bai Feng and Mo Xue.
“Do you plan to continue hiding or look for zombies?” Li Yu was the first to speak. The two people hiding could not pretend not to hear him anymore and could only get up. Bai Feng looked at Mo Xue’s swollen feet and decided to rest.
Therefore, he shook his head and said, “Let’s hide here for the night. It’s not convenient for Xiao Xue to run again in this state. It’s good as long as we can survive until the end.”
“Mo Yu hasn’t been eliminated yet, right?” The player who had been very quiet at the side suddenly spoke. Without waiting for their answer, that person directly said to the camera, “I’ll withdraw. If I can’t win, I might as well go home and sleep.”
After saying that, he turned around and left, not planning to explain to them, leaving the three of them dumbfounded.
“Who is he? Why did he withdraw from the competition when he heard that Mo Yu was not eliminated?” Mo Xue muttered and was very puzzled. She did not expect Li Yu to narrow his eyes as if he had thought of something and also announce his withdrawal from the competition to the camera.
In an instant, two people were gone, and Bai Feng and Mo Xue’s uneasiness was greatest. However, Li Yu did not leave directly. Instead, he gave them a suggestion. “If you’re too tired, you should withdraw from the competition. You can’t win.”
