Chapter 259 Battle for the Cowl (1)

Since nothing consumable was used in the last play, Feng Bujue didn’t go to the shop to buy supplies but went straight to the queue.

[Feng Bujue, level 28]

[Please select the game mode you want to join]

[Your choice is killing game (indiscriminate melee), please confirm.]

[It has been confirmed that the random number of team members has been generated: six.]

After that, Feng Bujue experienced the longest waiting time so far. He waited for more than three minutes, but the next prompt still doesn’t come out.

“What?” Feng Bujue thought: “Since it’s an indiscriminate scuffle, the system can just literally pull six of people with similar levels, do I have to wait this long?”

What he didn’t think of is… This is just the start.

Then, after a long wait of twenty-five minutes, he still wasn’t in the scenario, and he couldn’t quite the queue or do anything else…

“What is this? The server crashed?” Just as he was about to force himself offline…

[Match completed, coordinating neural connections, scenario generation in progress…] The prompt came in time.

[Start loading, please wait for a moment]

“Hehehe… Let your opponents shudder, let them experience the real thriller!”

Feng Bujue stunned when he heard that: “Although this line is heard several times… But what about that familiar voice and that recognizable grin…”

[Load completed. You are currently playing a kill game]

[This mode provides an introduction to the scenario with the possibility of side quests/hidden missions and special worldviews.]

[Scenario win bonus: Randomly pick one of the available “Perfect” level equipment]

[The introduction of the play is about to be played, and the game will start immediately after the play is finished]

Feng Bujue was immediately surprised when he saw the line, he thought: What the hell… The winner can 100 percent take a perfect level equipment, and it’s “usable”? This is crazy!

The crazy thing is that this is just the beginning…

This time, instead of going into the passive mode of watching CG, the synopsis cames straight off the screen.

The elevator in which he was standing moved at that moment, moving upward at high speed.

[Gotham City, 2009.]

[After Bruce Wayne is killed in a battle with Darkseid, Gotham is badly out of control. Gangsters are rampant and supercriminals such as Two-Face and Penguin are fighting for the supremacy of the city.]

[Nightwing (Dick Grayson, the first Robin) and Batgirl assembled “The Network” — a team of trusted allies trying to help out in a crunch. But this crisis had last far longer than they could have imagined.]

[The city went into a vicious cycle, villians found there’s no Batman, they realized this is time to divide Gotham underground world again. Everyone involved in the crime spree, not just those established criminals, there is also some more ambitious younger began to emerge.]

[Gotham police are on the verge of collapse, with officers enduring long hours of dangerous patrols and worrying about whether their families have been attacked, and many of them found… they had no choice but to resign.]

[Crimes and robs happened everywhere… The mayor had declared a state of emergency in Gotham.]

[The people of Gotham are looking for a saviour, someone who can restore order to the streets.]

[They are looking forward to… Batman.]

[The city’s superheroes, meanwhile, has a battle to decide who will take on Batman’s identity while fighting criminals.]

The synopsis ended with the subtitle, and the elevator stopped at that moment.

Feng Bujue had read in detail about the killing game including several specifications, especially the rule that: [Killing games against each other between the players is the core of this mode, it will weaken the terrorist elements of the scenario. Any possible world view or task, map size will be generated according to the number of players and ability.]

So, Feng Bujue was very clear about the appearance of this kind of world view…

[Main task triggered]

[Become the only surviving player in the scenario]

After this cue, the elevator door opened, which means that the play had officially begun.

Clicking click –

As soon as the door opened, Feng Bujue heard the sound of the submachine gun and his first reaction was to roll over in his arms.

“WTF! I just got into the map and I was ambushed?” Feng Bujue surprised: “Why’s that?”

He thought too much obviously… In this mode, all six players are naturally assigned to different parts of the map, and the elevator doors would open at the same time.

The sound of the gun heard by Feng Bujue was only a masked bandit shooting at the ceiling in the scenario.

Turns out, outside Feng Bujue’s elevator is the lobby of a bank, and the instant that he came out, a robbery had just started its prelude.

“Everybody get down!” Shouted someone.

Before he had finished saying this, Feng Bujue was lying on his stomach without any hesitation. Now he looked up and knew what he is seeing.

“One, two, three people…” Feng Bujue collected and started to analyze the condition he saw. “Two seem to be doing heavy manual work, and one has a tattoo of a sailor on his left hand, but his posture holding the gun and walking doesn’t seem like a trained person… I’ll roll out the possibility of having a military background.” He glanced again in the direction of the bank door. “There must be another robber, who’s the driver in that car across the street. “

“Don’t move! I told you to stay still. Don’t you understand? Bastard! Show me your hand!” The gangsters were trying to control the scene and they were very successful.

Feng Bujue’s position is next to a pillar quite far from the counter. As long as he lay on the ground and doesn’t have exaggerated movement, the bandits will not pay attention to him.

“Jackets, jeans, sweatshirts, sneakers, leather shoes… It’s all casual wear and store-bought ski masks.” The analysis of these bandits was going on in Feng Bujue’s mind rapidly. “Each of the two men at the door has a pistol, the one with the tattoo on his arm should be the leader, he has a pistol and a submachine gun…” He sneered. “From the information I got so far, none of the three men are professional criminals. They should just be citizens with guns, and there’s no need to mention their driver…”

“Hey! What are you doing!” The bandit with the submachine gun suddenly shouted at his partner who was loading money: “Do you think I am blind? Get the money out of your coat pocket and don’t do anything stupid, ok?”

“Well… Family gangs possible can be ruled out…” After Feng Bujue saw these scenes, he had basic finished his observation, “Hum… These three bandits had no serious plans at all. Judging by how the guy at the door looking around, he has no idea which direction the police car is coming from. And that money-taking guy had no idea about how much should he take.

As for the leader, he had no idea where the cameras are or how long would it take for a security alert to call the police. He certainly doesn’t have a fallback plan if the guy driving across the street hears the siren and runs away.”

Feng Bujue soon stopped staring at these people, he covered his face in between the arms and laid obediently: “Better to mind my own business, the more amateur criminals are, the easier for them to make unpredictable behaviours. If I stand and fight, who knows what will these idiots do? If the three enter the state of hysteria, the situation will be out of control.”

After about five minutes, Feng Bujue looked up again, “Should I remind them… it’s time to retreat.” He suddenly thought of something, “It’s not I look down on you… These three had no estimate of how long the police would arrive and how much money they would pack, which would surely drag them here for a long time. When the police car comes and they hear the siren, they will panic, it is very likely that they will fail to retreat and go into a hostage standoff situation… “

“Damn it! The police are here! Go go go!” Sure enough, just then, the robber at the door heard the siren and shouted.

The man with the money zipped up two bags stuffed with cash. The leading man took one and the two men, each with a backpack, rushed to the door.

At the moment, both backpacks are full; but it is the process of taking money that makes the robbers miss the best time to escape…

“Hey! Hey! Damn it!” The gangster at the door shouted across the street twice, turned his head just in time to meet his two accomplices, and pointed down the street. “That bastard runs away!”

“Fuc*!” “Damn it! The other two bandits also cursed.

In fact, even if their partners did not run, the three of them did not have time to cross the road…

The street outside the bank was soon filled with police cars. A crowd of police officers opened the doors and poured down, aiming their guns at the bank gate.

A police officer with a loudspeaker blared classic nonsense at the bank: “People inside, this is Gotham Police. You’re surrounded. Drop your weapons and surrender!”

“Back! You bastards! We have hostages!” The lead bandit hid behind a wall near the gate, turned his head and shouted at the outside, then lowered his voice again to speak to his accomplices: “What are you doing? Go and see if there is any other way!”

Looking at the performance of these three guys, as well as the development of the situation, Feng Bujue sighed helplessly and once again lowered his head, “Alas… A bunch of idiots… “
