Chapter 19

At this moment, the short man was dealing with the little giant in front of him while keeping an eye on his surroundings.

When he was hiding in a house earlier, he was sneak attacked. Just now, he was sneak attacked again.

His purple armor was already in a damaged state.

Fortunately, the little giant’s attributes were not very high. If his attributes were any higher, he would have been done for the moment he was sneak attacked.

Damn that guy!

The guy in front of him was a dullard. The guy who ambushed him was a villain!

However, Brandon was invisible. No matter how careful the short man was, it was impossible for him to find Brandon.

This was the power of an SSS-class talent!

“What a bastard! He ambushed me and now he’s fighting with me, yet he still dares to be distracted.” The little giant roared, swinging his greatsword with immense strength.

“Damn it!”

The short man cursed in his heart. He could only temporarily focus on the attack in front of him. At this very moment, a blade flashed behind him.

Charged attack!

Critical hit!

Stunned for 2 seconds!

The veins on the short man’s forehead popped up after being stunned!

Motherf*cker!

‘I was clearly paying attention to my back just now. How did I get ambushed again?!’ he thought.

It was a critical hit!

Seeing that nearly 500 HP was gone in an instant, leaving him with only 14 HP, the short man’s expression turned ugly.

If this continued any longer, he would die!

He suddenly swung his dagger, forcing the little giant to retreat. He wanted to escape.

However…

Just as he took a step forward, his vision turned red.

The short man was stunned. What was going on?

‘There’s no way I was attacked again!’ he thought.

He hurriedly checked his status, only to discover that he had been poisoned.

His HP had been reduced by 5 points!

Now, he only had 9 HP left.

He hurriedly took out a bandage. The short man wanted to raise his HP, but the next second, he heard the sound of an arrow whistling through the air.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw an arrow flying towards him.

He tried his best to twist his body and dodge the arrow, but it was too late. In the end, the short man was killed by the arrow.

…

[You have hit the target’s vital point (heart), causing 357 critical hit damage!]

[You have killed an enemy (Jimmy Gibbs)!]

[All your attributes have been increased by 5 points (only valid in this game)!]

With a final hint of unwillingness, Jimmy Gibbs collapsed to the ground, slowly turning into a soul tomb. Three yards away, Brandon put away his bow & arrow. Listening to the system notifications in his mind, the corner of his mouth curled up.

The ninth kill!

All of this was seen by the little giant.

He, who had been ambushed, curled his lips when he saw Brandon kill the short man.

Suddenly!

Something caught his eye, and he looked straight at Jimmy Gibbs’ soul tomb.

There, beside the soul tomb, there was also an arrow.

The little giant clearly remembered that when he was ambushed the first time, the arrow was exactly the same as this one.

He stared at Brandon and roared, “So it was you. It was you who started it!”

Brandon couldn’t be bothered to talk to such an idiot. He used his instant step and rushed into one of the nearby houses.

Seeing this, the little giant also rushed in.

But after the first corner, he completely lost track of Brandon.

“You little jerk, don’t let me see you again!”

After letting out a roar, the little giant walked back towards the main street.

Although he was a dullard, he wasn’t kind either. The short man’s soul tomb definitely had many good things inside. Now that Brandon had escaped, these spoils naturally belonged to him.

However!

The very instant he turned around, a white light suddenly flashed behind him.

Charged attack!

Purple armor was broken!

Poison!

“Damn it, you…”

The small giant suddenly turned around, but there was no one behind him. He was utterly enraged.

“Despicable fellow!”

He took out the first aid kit from his backpack and started to patch himself up on the spot. As he did, his eyes kept scanning his surroundings.

There was no one!

Just as the little giant relaxed…

The invisible Brandon was already standing behind him, stabbing down with his dagger.

Charged attack!

Critical hit!

Stunned for 2 seconds!

Poison!

The little giant was shocked.

What’s going on? I clearly saw it just now. There was no one nearby. How did he get behind me?

There was no time for him to solve the mystery. He did not have much HP to begin with. While he was stunned, the poison chipped away at his HP and killed him.

[You have hit the target’s vital point (heart), causing 372 critical hit damage!]

[You have killed an enemy (Don Diesel)!]

[All your attributes have been increased by 5 points (only valid in this game)!]

“The tenth head!”

Looking at Don Diesel’s soul tomb, Brandon’s face was beaming with joy.

Ten kills. He had received 50 bonus attribute points for all his attributes!

It was equivalent to five times the upper limit of an ordinary person!

Once he had broken through that upper limit, every increase in his attributes increased his performance exponentially.

In other words, with Brandon’s current attributes, he would take less than 2 seconds to run 100 meters. This speed was enough to make Usain Bolt, the fastest runner in the world, doubt his life.

Moreover, Brandon also had the bonus of many pieces of equipment and skills.

Among all the remaining players, he was already standing at the peak.

Of course, the reason why Brandon had such a huge advantage was actually because of his talent!

SSS-class talent — infinite invisibility!

Just this talent alone could guarantee that he would be one of the last two survivors.

This kind of power was not something that any F-class talent could compare to.

At this moment, the cautious Brandon had already entered invisibility and started to pick up the equipment in the soul tombs.

As he opened the little giant’s soul tomb, the items inside instantly made Brandon’s eyes widen.

He finally understood why the little giant dared to be so arrogant and walk openly on the streets of Holy Fire City.

…

The other big city in the safe zone — Aland.

At the center of the city.

The hooked-nosed man Jack and the muscular man Gareth were crossing their arms in front of their chests.

In front of the two of them, a man with disheveled hair and a helmet that had been knocked off was kneeling on the ground. He said in disbelief, “The two of you are actually working together. You deliberately fought each other and lured me here to pick up scraps?!”

Jack smiled coldly. Together with his hooked nose, he looked even more sinister.

“This escape game is a dog-eat-dog world. You can’t trust anyone!” he scoffed.

“What you saw was just what we wanted you to see. You have only your own stupidity to blame!”

Gareth didn’t say a word. He walked straight over and finished him off with a dagger.

Jack looked at him and said, “After killing this person, your kill count should be the same as mine. It should be eight.”

Nodding, Gareth replied, “We’ve already cleared out the people from Aland. The rest should be in Holy Fire City.”

Hearing that, Jack opened the map. “There are still five people left…”

Suddenly!

He said in surprise, “That target we’re pursuing, Brandon, is still alive?!”

“Oh, looks like he’s really not bad.” Gareth was also a little surprised. “Where is he?”

“Holy Fire City!”

“Let’s go!”
