Chapter 438: Scheming

POSTED ON JULY 24, 2023 BY KEN

“4 seconds only?” Koi showed a sarcastic smile.

Having undergone arduous training, she simply regarded the injuries from her body as nothing. Even though it was a mechanical beast weighing 200kg that was still gnawing on her body frantically!

As for the negative effects of smoke bombs, such as itching, they were all ignored by this woman with nerves as tough as steel.

The 4 seconds stun ended again, and Koi kicked Rubes away!

Then she rolled over on the spot, curled up and crawled forward twice quickly.

“Only about 5 meters…”

Although in this smoke bomb, her vision range was only half a meter away, in Koi’s mind, she still precisely locked the distance between herself and the randomized door.

But at this moment, a purple-black rope net fell from the sky and firmly bound Koi.

“[Ensnare]!”

Koi still had a sneer on her face.

Even though Fang Linyan had appeared in front of him, Koi still looked at him with provocative and arrogant eyes.

Because in her private storage space, there was also a bottle of extremely effective healing potion that could instantly restore 80% HP.

A nutritional protein bandage that could heal 50% HP and reduce all damage taken by 80% for a short time.

These medicines were all in a usable state, and they all took effect instantly!!

Then Koi sarcastically said,

“Go ahead and use all your cards!”

Fang Linyan smiled and said,

“Yes, I will.”

Koi looked at his face and said bitterly:

“The next time I come back, I will never give you another chance. I will pay all the price to kill you and your companion. I will let you enjoy the most terrifying torture before you die!”

“I will feed every piece of meat on your body to the rats in the sewer!”

Fang Linyan smiled and said,

“4.5 meters? This is the distance between you and the protective cover of that door, and you must have items that heal yourself, so you think you can go in safely?”

Koi stopped talking for a while. The feeling of being seen through was very bad. She suddenly had an ominous omen in her heart.

So she simply pulled out a large-caliber pistol from her waist, aimed at Fang Linyan, and was about to pull the trigger!!

But at this moment, Fang Linyan had already taken a deep breath. The muscles in both hands tensed before launching a barrage of fists at Koi’s head in an instant.

[Wing Chun Chain Punch]!!

Da da da da da!!

This kind of punch that pursued the ultimate; this kind of hurricane quick punch that seemed to explode the strength of all the muscle fibers on both arms really gave Fang Linyan an intense hearty feeling.

Koi lost her consciousness. She suddenly felt like a sandbag, being kicked and beaten by several people and floating in the air.

After Fang Linyan punched 6 times at an astonishing speed, the seventh punch paused for a while before changing from a straight punch to an uppercut. It hit Koi’s chin heavily.

Fang Linyan’s current strength was 27 (the +3 strength buff of Gao Family Inn’s Delicious Roasted Pig was still effective. Koi, as a sniper, was absolutely impossible to fight with him in terms of strength.

Therefore, her whole body was blown away by the huge power contained in this punch.

Then before landing, she was hit by a high-explosive grenade shot by [Mechanical Gyrfalcon], making her roll several times in the air!

After landing, Koi immediately drank the potion that could restore 80% HP, then she climbed up with difficulty and spat out a mouthful of blood and mud…

At this time, she was dizzy. She staggered a few steps in the smoke, then suddenly realized a terrifying fact.

She couldn’t find where the randomized door was located.

This was actually quite normal. First, Fang Linyan used [Wing Chun Chain Punch] to frantically beat her on the head. Although no crush damage was caused, she also received 2 critical blows due to the attack on the head.

At the same time, Rubes and [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] also attacked together.

Therefore, when [Wing Chun Chain Punch] finished dealing damage, it directly caused damage to her head that exceeded 1/5 of her total HP.

In this case, she would definitely be doomed with a concussion LV1.

In addition, when she was thrown into the air by the last uppercut, she was blown up again by the high-explosive grenade and rolled several times in the air.

In this case, unless she was a very professionally trained pilot, otherwise her sense of direction must be disrupted.

Smoke surged behind Koi. Just like a horror movie, an arm suddenly stretched, tightly wrapped around her neck, and dragged her back.

Needless to say, it must be Fang Linyan.

Although Koi’s strength was as high as 15 points because of the need to use a heavy sniper rifle, she still couldn’t resist Fang Linyan. She was dragged away by him as she struggled frantically.

At this time, Koi was already thinking of another item in her private storage space.

This item was also her second trump card. It was also the reason why she dared to curse Fang Linyan so viciously before:

Blink Bead…….

The bead was already covered with cracks. It looked like it could only be used once or twice.

Once the bead was activated, the user could teleport 20 meters toward the designated area under any circumstances.

Relying on this bead, Koi had repeatedly defeated strong enemies and made comebacks many times. For example, when escaping, she was directly teleported to the roof of a 20-meter-high building next to her…

Therefore, when Koi was only 4.5 meters away from the randomized door shield, she thought that Fang Linyan, who repeated the 3 control skills in a row, was out of means. She was 100% sure to make it into the randomized door, so she wanted to keep the Blink Bead.

But she didn’t expect Fang Linyan to see through her plan under such circumstances!

“This man is really scary…”

Suddenly, such a thought popped up in Koi’s mind.

But she quickly felt ashamed of this thought and injected MP into the Blink Bead.

“Contractor KIB18, you injected 10 MP into the Blink Bead.”

“The Flash Bead only has 1 remaining usage left! It will break after this usage!”

“Please choose the direction you want to blink…”

Koi couldn’t remember the direction of the randomized door at all, but since Fang Linyan strangled her from behind and pulled her behind.

Obviously, from Fang Linyan’s point of view, he must be dragging her away from the randomized door.

Therefore, she should be facing the randomized door at this time!

With this in mind, Koi immediately decided to choose the direction of the blink.

But at the moment when she was about to transmit, she suddenly thought of a very important fact.

That was Fang Linyan had a very deep scheme. It could be said that he was very good at calculating people’s minds…

What if he is tricking me?

He already expected me to be very anxious now, so he deliberately drags me toward the randomized door.

Then, in desperation, without thinking about it, I will blink with a “swoosh”…

In the end, I use this life-saving trump card to push myself deeper into the abyss!

“Right!” Koi’s thoughts were equally delicate, so she immediately thought of a very crucial point.

“Before I was blown away by the high-explosive grenade at most 2 meters away. That means, the distance between me and the randomized door when I finally landed should be around 6 meters away.”

“The smoke grenade was launched by his [Drone], so the effect of the smoke on him is very low. Wrench should know the distance between me and the door.”

“If he’s dragging me away from the door, the guy must be walking fast!”

“If he tries to trick me and drag me toward the randomized door, then this guy’s pace will definitely slow down, because at a distance of 6 meters, if he drags quickly, his intention will be exposed in a few seconds.”

Thinking of this crucial point, Koi immediately couldn’t help but sneer and thought so in her mind,

“This idiot is actually dragging his feet! The steps seem very frequent, but in fact, each step only retreats 3cm!”

“Then the correct way to deal with this situation is actually very simple. That is to teleport in the direction where this idiot drags — the teleportation distance will be 8 meters! In this case, I can still laugh at this idiot before leaving!”

Koi immediately acted according to her own reasoning. She activated the Blink Bead, then prepared to quickly rush into the randomized door.

However, after a blur of her vision, she realized that she was still in the smoke!! The shiny protective shield and the door of hope that should have appeared were simply gone.

Immediately afterward, her heart turned chill bit by bit.

An almost crazy feeling spread in her heart.

Did I make a mistake?

Could it be that bastard didn’t think that much at all? He might have sprained his ankle and hurt his arm, so of course he wasn’t dragging me that fast.

Did I just outsmart myself?

“Hehehe…”

“Clap clap clap…”

From the thick smoke not far away, there was a burst of monotonous and detestable applause.

Fang Linyan came out slowly, then he smiled and said,

“You must be thinking now that you are outsmarting yourself right?”

Koi’s pupils suddenly contracted in horror. Even if she had a good mental state, after failing repeatedly, she was almost on the verge of collapse.

TL: It is possible that the door is at her right or left…
