Even if it wasn't to escape from the Truth Society, as a doctor, she developed a strong desire to study Lily.
…
After getting out of the car, the players spent twenty minutes setting up a simple but not easily discoverable trap.
The trap contained a low-power grenade and some poison sacs. As soon as the grenade exploded, the poison sacs would immediately shatter, and the splashing venom would spray directly onto anyone walking past.
After setting up the trap, they gagged the two captives, grabbed them, and rushed towards Red Sand Camp.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by a sharp gunshot, Red Sand Camp instantly awoke, even though it was the sleepiest time of dawn.
"Who's shooting in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
"Something's happening!"
Marco leaped up, and at his shout, the elite Wanderer remaining in the camp rushed towards the camp gate.
"They're here, get ready."
Lily said to Anya and Old Nissen, then set up her gun in the car.
This battle was a test for the players joining Silent Garden, but she didn't really expect these players to defeat Marco and Rattlesnake.
The level gap was too big; it wasn't realistic. To deal with Marco and Rattlesnake, she had to do it herself.
Ten seconds later, Wanderer rushing out from deep within the camp began to confront the players. They looked down and saw a dead companion on the ground, then looked up and saw two other companions tied up by the players.
"What do you want? How dare you kill our Red Sand people? You must have a death wish!"
Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky laughed: "You burned, killed, and looted our homes, and now you ask us what we want? I came all this way just to kill you bastards!"
Gun muzzles emerged from behind the two captives.
"Enemy attack!"
Wanderer, sensing danger, cried out loudly.
To their surprise, when they focused their attention on Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky, Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky didn't shoot. Instead, the others around them began to throw things at them.
What a joke.
They don't even have proper weapons. Do they think they can kill us with rocks?
Wanderer of Red Sand Camp were about to laugh when one of them, who was hit, discovered the problem.
"It's not rocks, it's poison sacs! It's Sandworm poison sacs! I've been hit!"
He let out a heart-wrenching scream. Those standing close saw a ruptured poison sac fall onto his foot, and the skin touched by the venom immediately began to swell and rot.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Wanderer panicked.
Being infected by venom had a chance of mutation. Even if they were lucky enough not to mutate, their skin would rot if corroded by the highly acidic venom. This kind of pain was not something Ordinary people could endure.
"Kill them!"
"Haha, take this!"
Black Tiger Afu charged up his Qi, wielded a large saber, and plunged into Wanderer, his unreasonable charge directly breaking their formation.
"Damn it, they're too despicable! They're trying to drag us all down with them like ghosts!"
This chaotic situation continued until Marco appeared.
Marco was no Ordinary person; he was a veteran Martial Artist. By attaching Qi to his body, he could easily resist venom. As soon as he appeared, he forcefully sent three poison sacs flying and soared in front of Black Tiger Afu.
Troublemakers deserve only death!
A fist the size of a sandbag imprinted on Black Tiger Afu's face like a heavy hammer. Black Tiger Afu screamed and was slammed against the wall.
Hitting people like hanging a painting—this move stunned the other players.
Too strong, unbeatable!
"Retreat first!"
Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky shouted, signaling the other players to execute the second plan.
Without hesitation, everyone quickly ran towards the trap that had been set up in advance.
"Can you escape?"
Marco was furious, galloping through the sand like a tank, chasing the players until their scalps tingled. But he ultimately lost his head, and as he ran, he stepped into the trap set by the players.
Boom!
The grenade exploded with a roar. Marco, sensing danger, quickly gathered his Qi to protect himself.
The shockwave knocked him to the ground, and venom splattered all over him, but relying on his tough skills, he narrowly avoided it.
"Heh heh." Marco sneered, "A bunch of desert rats, only capable of using petty tricks. Now that you don't have these tricks, let's see how you can jump around!"
Is that so?
Bang!
A gunshot rang out in the distance. The sniper rifle bullet instantly pierced Marco's shoulder blade, exploding a large hole there.
Marco fell to the ground. As he gasped for breath and climbed up, he suddenly noticed a pair of boots in front of him.
"You…"
He looked up, and what met his eyes was a young girl wearing a white shirt and black tight pants.
"Buddy, lend me your head."
Lily directly pulled out a grenade launcher and gave Marco a shot at extremely close range.
Marco's mind exploded.
Crazy! Why did he encounter only crazy enemies who fought like this today!
Under the grenade's bombardment, Marco's Qi was directly dispersed, and he coughed up large mouthfuls of blood.
Just as Lily was about to fire a second shot, a figure suddenly flashed by and dragged Marco aside.
It was a masked man with sharp, snake-like eyes.
"Who are you?" he asked.
Lily first said to the players: "Leave this to me. You go deal with the remaining people in the camp."
After speaking, she looked at the masked man in front of her with a smile.
"Rattlesnake? You can call me the Desert Reaper. I'm here to send you on your way."
There were some heavy weapons in Red Sand Camp, and even Lily didn't dare to confront those weapons directly. But now that the players had lured out Marco and Rattlesnake, things became much simpler.
