Chapter 359 - 178: Cat and Mouse
Seeking abuse? Haha, if Su Jiameng knew what Gu Ningzhi was thinking inside, she would probably laugh in his face! It’s her who’s challenging the opponent right now, don’t mix up the positions, please! But that guy is indeed strong, she can’t deny that!
Gu Ningzhi spoke with his brother again and learned about the current situation, almost left speechless. He had to both sigh at Su Jiameng’s enduring strength and lament that she was blinded by victory, failing to notice that she was already caught in a predicament.
But... Did Su Jiameng truly not realize? No! She noticed but was simply playing along to rack up a few more kills.
After three instances, Su Jiameng changed positions while fighting, and the IDs on the Death List kept increasing. Nevertheless, as she made more moves, the awareness among those guys reached its peak; the last time she nearly slipped! Regarding this discovery, Su Jiameng could only marvel at the high quality of her opponents, they were really a bunch of excellent little fruits!
On the ground, Gu Ningyi covertly communicated with someone and then closed the private chat, his cold facial features softening slightly, as if with a hint of confident amusement. Su Jiameng struck again, using a modified sniper rifle with its custom shooting trajectory. To prevent the opponent from easily discovering the pattern and counterattacking, she found quite a number of excellent weapons of various types!
Watching the raging blue flames roar, Su Jiameng seemed to see new companions added to the Death List.
But this time what surprised her was that before she could react, an extremely dangerous aura drew near. In her rush, she could only hurriedly dodge as concealed ammunition and Gu Ningyi’s attack nearly grazed past the stealth barrier!
"Tch! Already starting to organize an effective counterattack, have they figured out the general pattern?" Su Jiameng muttered softly, cold sweat she herself hadn’t noticed forming on her forehead, "That was quick, but if that’s all they have, it won’t be enough!"
Below, Gu Ningyi showed a hint of regret but quickly collected himself and resumed a calm demeanor. Although he didn’t succeed earlier, he did teach the opponent a lesson and sent a warning—humans can’t be too arrogant!
Clearly, Su Jiameng didn’t heed his warning, or even if she understood, she would not change her original intention! If Su Jiameng were not arrogant, would she still be "Su Jiameng"? Surely she’d have been replaced by someone else crossing over!
At that time, she may be able to endurably concede, except during combat, when no one can demand her to submit! Unless she chooses to endure, but even then it’s just to find the optimal chance for counterattack and aggression! She has always been someone who refuses to put herself at a disadvantage!
"Huh, I’d like to see how long you can endure..." Although Su Jiameng easily gets fueled by passion when entering combat, this doesn’t mean she loses her rationale. On the contrary, in this state she is at her most rational. Based on years of bloody experience, she has discerned Gu Ningyi’s plan and knows how to handle it.
Moreover, she is not just sniping enemies now, she’s also probing the opponent’s bottom line. Endurance is a quality that every competent Alliance Warrior must learn, even the most hot-tempered ones must suppress their instincts. Even if their comrades die right in front of their eyes, they must endure until their goal is achieved... endure and endure till they become Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
Su Jiameng is astounded by Gu Ningyi’s strength, understanding that this man is extremely difficult to deal with. Yet when challenged, she has the urge to see how strong this man really is, to determine if he’s worthy of her focus!
"A small impatience spoils great plans; this saying is true in any era, at any time."
Saying this, Su Jiameng gently presses on her wrist, a habitual gesture. When she had just started training, she rarely managed to endure till the end, often letting impulsiveness lead to issues within the virtual training team, even losing regular training.
Later, she began using this gesture as a reminder to endure, because only endurance leads to survival, and victory may belong to her. If she couldn’t endure, all she’d meet would be a cold corpse! Luckily, as she gained more experience and grew, she no longer needed this gesture as a reminder. But in special circumstances, it still appears unconsciously...
