The Grey Marsh was the closest large resource point to Brandon and Annie.
Although the two of them had armor, helmets, guns, and some consumables, they were still a distance away from winning.
The two of them walked silently through the rainforest.
In fact, Annie was very curious about Brandon.
In real life, Annie had seen many outstanding people of the same age. Even in the escape game, they were very outstanding. It was common for them to win, but none of them were like Brandon.
He was mysterious from head to toe.
Unfortunately…
Brandon didn’t pay much attention to her. This made Annie, who had always been proud, feel a little disappointed.
On the other hand, Brandon was thinking about how to make better use of his talent and expand his advantage.
From the current situation, he had learned that a powerful weapon was a must.
But there were other shortcomings.
For example, finding other people was a difficult problem.
Winning was a matter of who had the highest points. However, if one wanted to get more survival points, it was very important to gain attributes from killing others.
However, he did not have many clues on this how to find other people.
Both of them, each with their own thoughts, headed toward the Grey Marsh.
A few minutes later, the two arrived at the Grey Marsh.
They did not rush in.
After all, they did not know if they would be walking into an ambush.
Currently, Brandon did not have unlimited invisibility.
Looking through the dense rainforest towards the Grey Marsh, Brandon saw more than 20 wooden houses there. The rows were not dense, but looking from a single point of view, one could not see the entire Grey Marsh clearly.
Brandon rubbed his chin, deep in thought.
The cities in this and previous escape games were made in the same style.
It wouldn’t let people see everything!
The terrain was quite complicated!
This terrain had both advantages and disadvantages for players.
The advantage was that it was easy to escape.
The disadvantage was that the gap between newcomers and experts would be obvious.
In other words, the learning curve of this game was very high.
Currently, Brandon also needed to be careful. After all, he didn’t have infinite invisibility now, so he couldn’t be as arrogant as in the previous game.
Moreover, he had a teammate, so he had to take her into consideration!
Annie looked at the Grey Marsh carefully and said to Brandon, “Hey, I think there should be no one else here, what do you think?”
She was influenced by her family’s upbringing!
She had been independent since she was young, including her ability to survive in the wild.
Although she had made her own judgment, she still asked for Brandon’s opinion.
Not only did she respect the opinions of her teammates, but more importantly, Brandon was an interesting character in her eyes. Perhaps he would have other opinions, and those opinions were very valuable!
Brandon nodded his head absent-mindedly.
Seeing this, Annie was slightly disappointed, but then she asked, “Then should we search for resources together or separately?”
After a moment of silence, Brandon said, “Let’s do it together.”
This round of the escape game, which used firearms, was different from an escape game with cold weapons. It was not realistic for cold weapons to quickly eliminate a person in the early stages of the game.
In that case, the two of them would split up to increase the efficiency of searching for resources. Even if they ran into someone, they would be able to fend them off for some time, due to the shortcomings of cold weapons.
However, firearms were different!
Bullets were very powerful. If one of them was spotted by another group of two, it would be very dangerous!
It was very likely that they would be eliminated within seconds!
In order to reduce the risk, they should search for resources together.
The two of them then moved towards the Grey Marsh. They were experienced players, so even though there was no one, they remained vigilant at all times!
This was the fundamental reason why they could win!
Although there were more than 20 houses in the Grey Marsh, it was not considered an advanced resource point. They searched five or six houses together, but they did not find any higher-quality resources.
They were only able to find green-quality resources or below.
At this moment!
Brandon stopped in his tracks. Annie turned around and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Brandon furrowed his brows, “Someone is here…”
“Really?!”
Annie was suspicious. She did not hear any movement. The only sounds she could hear were of raindrops hitting the leaves and grass.
Brandon, who had [all-martial arts mastery] and [all-weapon mastery], did not have any obvious improvement in his physical attributes. However, his five senses were slightly more agile.
In addition, he was a male, so his physical attributes were naturally stronger than Annie’s.
Therefore, Brandon vaguely heard some conversations.
However…
He was not sure.
Brandon shook his head, “I’m not too sure either, but…”
“It’s better to be safe than sorry.”
Annie also felt that it made sense. In the escape game, one could not be too cautious.
Everything was for the final victory!
“Ambush them?” Annie looked at Brandon and asked.
Although Annie was competitive, in the two-player mode, the two of them were teammates. In most cases, she would ask for Brandon’s opinion.
Brandon nodded and lowered his voice, “Try to make as little noise as possible. Find their positions first.”
The two of them quickly came to an agreement.
They did not walk out of the room. Instead, they walked softly and tried to go to the corner of the room to make sure that no one would see them from the outside.
For a moment, the only sound left in the world was the sound of rain.
Time passed slowly. After three to four minutes, Annie still did not hear any unusual movements. Just as she was about to ask Brandon if he had heard wrongly.
Her ears twitched.
A faint sound of conversation entered her ears.
“Listen to me. After we finish searching, we will set up an ambush here. The Grey Marsh is a resource point. There will definitely be many people coming. If we ambush them here, we will be able to get a lot of kills.”
“Yes…yes…I will listen to you.”
“…”
The rest of the conversation could not be heard.
But…
It was enough!
Just these two sentences were enough for Annie to confirm their location!
It was on the left.
Moreover, they were not far away, at most three houses!
On a rainy day, listening to sounds would be very difficult, but for the same reason, if they heard it, they wouldn’t be far.
Annie gestured to Brandon, indicating the location of the other team.
Brandon nodded, indicating that he understood.
At the same time, he also noticed that Annie’s gesture was similar to that of a soldier.
Brandon stood up. Just when Annie thought that he would come over to discuss how to counter the ambush, she saw Brandon take out a rocket launcher and aim it at his left side….
