The grenade exploded in the narrow stairwell, and smoke and fire burst out from the stairwell entrance.
"Grenade! Watch out!" Confused shouts came from downstairs.
Now!
Li Shenyu sprang from behind cover, his submachine gun firing at the stairwell entrance.
"Da da da da!"
He didn't look at specific targets, wildly spraying bullets at the figures swaying in the smoke.
Bullets pierced through the smoke screen, bringing with them a spray of blood and screams.
A Black Horse team member, already severely wounded by the explosion, and a Strategy Team member attempting to rush up were instantly mowed down.
"We've locked onto his position, focus fire!"
Yu Ye's cold voice rang out from downstairs.
More bullets rained down on the rooftop, spraying wood chips from the pile of debris where Li Shenyu was hiding.
He quickly retreated behind cover, reloaded his magazine, his heart pounding, adrenaline surging.
He knew, this was only the beginning.
The enemies downstairs had not suffered any losses; the two people who had been downed were already revived by their teammates. This red brick building was his final battlefield.
He took a deep breath, gripped the gun, his eyes filled only with burning fighting spirit and cold killing intent.
"Come on! Let's see how many lives you bastards will have to throw in!"
Li Shenyu's tone was full of unwillingness.
However, he also knew...
In this situation, he couldn't last much longer.
Because he was out of bullets.
The time to search for supplies this time was too short. Just as they got this equipment, the opponents came killing them, trapping them in this house, unable to get out.
They couldn't go out to search for supplies, but the opponents had plenty of time to explore nearby residences.
With one side gaining and the other losing...
The equipment gap between the two sides quickly widened.
Li Shenyu had very few bullets left, and only one fragmentation grenade.
Such a small amount of equipment couldn't do anything.
All he could do now was bluff, hoping to escape this area in the chaos. As long as he left P City, he would find an opportunity later to come back and settle scores with these bastards.
However...
The 10 Strategy Teams from Baiye City clearly wouldn't give Li Shenyu this chance.
40 people.
Surrounding and killing one person.
And it was 40 skilled Strategy Team players, with a purposeful, planned encirclement.
This was not like a casual game.
The opponents' strength was not something a little skill could compensate for.
The pile of debris on the roof was crumbling under the dense firepower, and wood chips and gravel rained down on Li Shenyu.
He crouched behind cover, feeling the whistling of bullets as they grazed over his head and past the walls beside him.
The submachine gun's barrel was scalding hot, and more than half of the magazine had been emptied.
The chaos downstairs had subsided for a few brief seconds due to his counterattack, but what followed was more professional, more deadly suppression.
"Night Owl, use smoke grenades to block the stairwell. Crimson Flame, use molotovs to cover the edge of the rooftop, don't let him jump." Yu Ye's cold voice rang out in the air.
Several smoke grenades were thrown into the stairwell, and dense white smoke instantly spread.
Blocking Li Shenyu's only way to observe the movements downstairs.
Immediately after, several molotovs whizzed and smashed onto the edge of the debris pile where Li Shenyu was hiding.
Boom!
Red flames surged violently, and a scorching heatwave swept over, igniting the dry wooden planks and rags. Thick smoke mixed with the white smoke from the smoke grenades instantly turned the small rooftop into a suffocating hell.
The scorching air burned Li Shenyu's skin and respiratory tract, his vision blurred, and the pungent smell made him cough violently.
"Cough cough... Damn it!"
Li Shenyu was forced to retreat to the center of the rooftop, where there was almost no cover.
He was exposed!
The moment he exposed himself.
"Bang!"
A muffled, extremely penetrating gunshot came from a distant high ground.
It was Han Ying's sniper rifle.
Li Shenyu felt as if his left arm had been violently struck by an invisible heavy hammer.
The huge impact made him stumble, and blood instantly stained his combat uniform.
The ensuing numbness made half of his body lose sensation, and the submachine gun slipped from his hand.
This shot directly incapacitated Li Shenyu.
He fell weakly to the ground, hearing the sound of shoes treading on the stairs, heavy and fast.
Leading the way was the tower-like Lei Yu.
He grinned, not holding a gun, but a blood-stained frying pan.
"Ladder Rank One?"
Lei Yu's voice was full of mockery and cruelty. He strode towards Li Shenyu, who was lying in a pool of blood, desperately trying to get up, "Is that all?"
Li Shenyu tried to lift his head, but his neck felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
He could only vaguely see Raymond's massive figure blocking the light from the sky.
"Remember this, kid..."
Raymond raised the frying pan high, the muscles on his arm bulging, "In Baiye City, if you're a dragon, you coil; if you're a tiger, you crouch. Champion? It's not for you country bumpkins!"
Before he finished speaking.
The heavy frying pan, with a whooshing sound, slammed down with full force towards Li Shenyu's struggling, raised head.
Bang!
The frying pan hit Li Shenyu squarely on the crown of his head.
Li Shenyu's body shook violently, then completely went limp.
【System Announcement: "Black Horse - Raymond" eliminated "Tide - Li Shenyu" using a frying pan.】
【System Announcement: Tide Team has been completely eliminated!】
On the rooftop of P City, Raymond, carrying the blood-stained frying pan, surveyed the other "allies" from Baiye City.
Yu Ye expressionlessly put away his gun.
Lin Wei's eyes flickered.
Han Ying quietly disappeared like a ghost.
The brief "cooperation" ended. The air was filled with gunpowder, blood, and a hint of unspoken ruthlessness.
For them, the real "competition" had just begun. Now they had to scatter, move away from this area, and when they met again, they would be enemies.
Only the figure lying in a pool of blood, with unwillingness in his eyes, returned to the player area.
After the system announcement came out.
The two commentators and the big screen began to frequently appear in various areas of the island, no longer focusing on teams from other towns.
They began to focus more on Baiye City's own teams.
The death of the Tide Team was glossed over by them, as if it was merely due to the team's lack of strength, leading to their rapid demise at the beginning of the game.
What exactly happened...
Only those involved knew.
Player area.
In the Tidal Town area, after Li Shenyu exited the Dungeon, his face was extremely gloomy.
Seeing the leader of Tidal Town, Li Shenyu opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
The leader waved his hand, "I know, you were targeted. This isn't your fault..."
No matter who it was.
No matter how superb their skills.
Facing the encirclement of 40 already powerful players, no one could resist...
Li Shenyu's performance was already quite good.
