SOMETHING magical was happening at the Winter area. The players there were slowly being eliminated one after another. Some of the players who were eliminated didn’t even know how they were eliminated. Some only saw a white shadow. And a few managed to see a pair of blue eyes sprinkled with gold.
Only after these few were transported to a resurrection spot did they realize that the one who eliminated them was Noctis. Realizing that, they couldn’t help but curse uncontrollably at the white-haired elf.
The elf they’d been cursing was currently standing on one branch of a tree. He was now at the forest of the Winter area. Looking at the map in his hands, 80 red dots had vanished. 50 of those were the ones he had eliminated. So, about 30 were taken down by other players. But he believed that some of those 30 were probably eliminated by the environmental factors in this area.
Luo Yan wasn’t really surprised by that. Since the Duke of Hearts said that the fastest area that would reach the quota of 4 players would receive a reward, a lot would definitely want to eliminate the other participants as fast as they could.
With that, only 198 players remained. No, make that 195 players since another three dots disappeared.
He temporarily put back the map in his Items Tab. The Winter area was divided into three sub-areas. The snow field where he appeared earlier. It was near the border of the Winter area and the Autumn area. The frozen lake that was next to the snow field. And then the forest. When one entered it from the frozen lake and they reached the other side of this forest, it would lead them to the sea.
Most of the players were scattered at the forest area which was the biggest of the three. Of course, he had to go there. On his way to the forest, he decimated all players that he came across with.
With the help of the map, he managed to take those players by surprise and thus making it easier for him to eliminate them. He didn’t really feel guilty about that. This was the meaning of battle royale – eliminating one after another until only a certain number of them remained. He wouldn’t just stay put, do nothing, and pray that none of the other players would ’kill’ him. Especially with such a useful map in his possession.
Besides, he’s an Assassin. It’s only natural for him to sneak around and ’kill’ people stealthily.
Luo Yan looked at the three wolves roaming at the distance. These were not ordinary wolves. They were bigger and much more violent. As long as they heard or saw a player, they would attack them mercilessly. It’s not just wolves, he also saw a huge polar bear that looked like it couldn’t wait to maw on something. As evidence of it snarling and salivating.
It was not just these animals, there were also plants as well. Flowers that produced icicles when they bloomed. These flowers only bloomed when it was touched. If a player was hit by this icicle, they would be frostbitten. Which kind of suck especially for those who couldn’t use their Items Tab.
Those were the ones he had seen so far. There’s probably even more. These were the environmental factors that the players had to watch out for aside from the other players.
Really, it’s like the game just wanted to lessen their numbers as fast as they could.
Luo Yan jumped to another tree and another. His destination was a spot where a cluster of red dots were. There were about 20 the last time he counted. He wondered why these players were together. Were they having a conference or something?
Of course, he had to check it.
He hadn’t reached his destination yet when he saw four figures at a distance. He recognized one of the four as that Angel. The two seemed to be discussing something. Seeing that Angel, Luo Yan guessed that he must be plotting something. He couldn’t hear their conversation this far out. So, he took out his Invisibility Cloak and put it own.
He still had three chances to use this item. He felt like it was just right to use one of those chances now. Mainly because he really didn’t like this Angel. Seeing someone acting like some innocent white lotus was not really to his taste. Of course, his dislike was not because like seeing a fellow white lotus. It was simply because his manipulation was full of bad intentions.
He thought those other players the Angel manipulated to close the door of the ship during the first trial would trouble the other. But the possibility of that now was pretty low. Should he just handle him himself?
Now wearing his Invisibility Cloak, Luo Yan jumped closer until he was in hearing distance.
"Is it really alright to leave Dragnar back there?" the Angel asked with a worried expression.
Luo Yan raised one of his brows. Dragnar? Wasn’t that the golden dragon? So, he also ended up in this area.
One of the other three with him snorted. "Didn’t he say on board the ship that he would still end up at the finals no matter what because he’s strong? Then he can prove that now."
"That’s right. Besides, those players were the ones who decided to work together to get rid of that dragon. We don’t need to take care of them."
"But- we’re the ones who told those players about the Dragnar’s location. It’s our responsibility," the Angel spoke again, this time with a righteous tone.
"Raphael doesn’t need to be so kind. This is a game. People who should be eliminated would be eliminated. It’s enough if the four of us survive."
"Yes. As long as you’re with us and keep healing us, we will definitely be the last four survivors in this area."
The Angel – Raphael – bit his lower lip, his expression full of guilt. "I still think we need to go back. But- but if you don’t want to, then I will go back myself."
Watching this farce, Luo Yan couldn’t help but laugh.
