Urban Battle Royale: A SSS-level Skill Every Time - Chapter 34

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After Annie collected some loot, she prepared to set off with Brandon.

She didn’t take the sniper rifle.

The reason was simple:

First, the sniper rifle was heavier than a rocket launcher, so it was very inconvenient to carry.

Second, the sniper rifle was easier to use over long distances and if one had a wide field of vision, but in this rainforest, it was of little use.

Third, Annie herself was not a fan of sniper rifles.

The next resource point was decided by Brandon, Grey Town.

The Grey Town was relatively far from where they were. Luckily, there were many wild monsters and isolated houses in between the Grey Marsh and the Grey Town. The search along the way should keep them busy and occupied.

But…

On the way, Brandon suddenly realized.

He might be able to obtain some information from Annie.

The last time he returned to the real world, he was only thinking about how to survive in prison. He completely forgot about retrieving his memories and information about the escape game.

And his teammate was a perfect target!

However, Brandon’s question was vague. One was because he didn’t want to expose the truth of his inadequate understanding of the game, and the other was because he knew that Annie was dissatisfied with him. At the same time, she was also curious about him.

If he asked too detailed questions, it would easily expose his identity.

Fortunately, the people of this world were too focused on the escape game. Brandon had watched many movies and TV series, and he had learned a trick or two from these shows on how to get information from others.

Soon…

Brandon learned a lot about the escape game and this world.

This world was not much different from his previous life. The structure was the same, just that the names were different.

However, the technology of this world took off very quickly because of the escape game. For example, no one in his previous world had been able to solve Goldbach’s conjecture for a long time, but in this world it had been solved decades ago.

It also wasn’t too far away from interstellar travel.

This was the information he learned about the world and about the escape game.

There was also the quality of the equipment: white, green, blue, purple, and orange.

It was the same as what Brandon had guessed, and was very similar to many games in his previous life.

According to incomplete statistics from players, thousands of maps had appeared in the escape game.

When he heard this, Brandon secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

If there were thousands of maps, so even an experienced gamer would not be too familiar with any particular map. This would greatly reduce the gap between a newcomer and an experienced gamer.

This was a good thing for Brandon, who did not have infinite invisibility for the time being.

Other than that, Brandon also inadvertently mentioned the category that was locked in the points store.

The conditions for unlocking were very harsh, one had to win ten games in a row.

It was not something that an ordinary person could do.

Regarding this, Annie, who had also noticed that category, looked a little dejected. She replied, “I had asked my father about this, but he did not tell me what’s inside. He only said that when I have the right to know, I will know.”

When he heard this, Brandon immediately stopped.

He could tell that Annie’s family was extraordinary.

In the real world, she might be the daughter of some rich man or some top executive. That was very obvious. The locked category in the points store was not a secret, but it was only limited to the upper class, so even a biological daughter could not know.

Annie essentially lived on the other side of the world from him.

Therefore, Brandon did not ask further.

While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the location of a wild monster.

But before they went over, they heard a rumbling sound.

Brandon was very familiar with the sound. It was the sound of a rocket launcher.

He glanced at Annie. “Let’s go and take a look. It’s time to pick up the loot.”

Annie nodded, but she didn’t look too happy.

She recalled that in the last game, she was qualified to be the final winner with all her equipment. In the end, she was attacked by Brandon when she was fighting wild monsters.

But when she saw the other teams fighting with the wild monsters, she couldn’t help but feel excited.

It seemed that everyone had the desire to eavesdrop and scavenge after all.

Both of them looked towards the center of the battle and saw a huge bear that was three yards tall standing there. There were two people attacking it, one from the front and the other from the back.

The one in front was holding a sniper rifle in one hand, while the one at the back was carrying a rocket launcher.

Looking at the two of them teasing the giant bear, Brandon knew that these two people had eliminated at least one person.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy.

Moreover, judging from their strong physiques, their attributes were definitely not low.

But to Brandon, it wasn’t a problem.

With the combination of unlimited firepower and rocket launchers, attributes were meaningless.

Brandon’s only hope now was that the giant bear and the two people would drop some skill books, which would make it easier for him to find people to kill.

Annie said, “Let’s do it.”

After saying that, she stepped forward, clearly eager to rush out and kill everyone.

Brandon was very surprised.

He had seen clearly that Annie was somewhat resistant to picking up loot.

After all, that was how she was eliminated in the last game — by being ambushed while picking up loot.

But he didn’t expect that when it was her turn, she would be very excited.

Perhaps she was trying to overcome her fear of picking up loot.

Although she was feeling emotional, Brandon immediately stopped her. “Now is not the time to make a move. When they lower their guard, it will be the time for us to make a move.”

“Oh.”

Annie nodded.

She was a newbie when it came to picking up loot, while Brandon was a veteran.

Annie was a smart lady that learned fast.

Time trickled by.

The battle between the two brawny men and the giant bear gradually became clear.

The giant bear gradually became dispirited under the pincer attack from the front and the back. Its movements were not as swift as they were at the beginning. After running for two steps, it would occasionally stop to take a rest.

Seeing this, Brandon became spirited and whispered, “It’s time to make a move!”

Annie’s eyes lit up.

Her eyes were filled with excitement and uneasiness, just like when she wanted to do something against her parents’ wishes when she was young..
