Chapter 456 - 236 Hostility_2
Maya was not good at acting, so she recited the lines she had thought of, "I’m fine, but I can’t speak for Lin Wu. However, as long as there’s loot, he seems tireless. And don’t hold a grudge against him, he’s just thinking about the mission."
Shadow shook his head, "What’s my status? How could I possibly haggle with some greenhorn? Here’s our new target: the cold storage plant. The cold storage plant covers an area of ten thousand square meters. I only have the basic layout, not sure about the NPC weapons and their locations. Armed personnel: 5-8."
Maya called out, "Lin Wu."
Lin Wu, holding a cup of latte, replied, "I’m here."
As Lin Wu approached the east side of the backyard where Maya was about to speak, the cup in his hand suddenly shattered, and Shadow next to him staggered back two steps, looking down at his chest to see blood gushing out nonstop.
Dashuang, on the eastern outpost, saw it clearly and cried out in horror, "Shadow, there’s a huge hole in your back."
As the words fell, Shadow fell back without a sound, becoming a corpse.
Maya had the quickest reaction. Full health Shadow being one-shot killed at an ally base definitely wasn’t something a player could do. It had to be an NPC seeking revenge. Recalling how the Alliance had listed the Meteorological Station as a hostile force, Maya spread her arms around Lin Wu to bring him down to the ground, yelling at the same time, "Shana, get down."
As Maya and Lin Wu fell to the ground, Maya received a system message: Subjected to invalid attack. After a quick understanding, Maya realized the message meant: A bullet had hit her. But since she was not a member of the hostile NPC base, the NPC wouldn’t inflict any damage on her.
Shana, whose combat awareness was far weaker, poked her head out from the tower and looked down, "Are you guys wrestling?"
