Chapter 248: Next Steps

The two groups said goodbye, and Lu Yu and others were also considering their next plan.

There should be no living people outside the safe zone now. The number of survivors in the upper right corner was decreasing rapidly. In just half an hour, nearly a thousand players had died outside the safe zone.

These people either did not have enough supplies and starved to death outside the circle.

Or he was ambushed and died near the safe zone. After all, Lu Yu was not the only one who could think of such a thing.

In the end, the number of survivors was fixed at more than 6,100 people, which means that at least more than 1,100 people must die before they can enter the top 50%.

One thing that needs to be noted is that having 5,000 people left does not mean that your team has entered the top 1,000.

Some teams have lost some members, so they are not a full five-person team.

Suppose there are 1,000 teams, and they only have 4 people left. In this case, even if the number of survivors is less than 5,000, your team may still be outside the 1,000.

Therefore, in order to ensure that the team ranks among the top 1,000, everyone must work hard to live as long as possible.

Of course, just surviving is not enough, because the final ranking is calculated based on the total number of combat points plus survival ranking points.

If you want to get a good ranking, you must not only dare to fight and kill, but also live longer.

This greatly increases the confrontational nature of the game.

In the first three days of competition, the map area was large and many players were unable to meet.

Even if it is a chance encounter, everyone will not fight against the opponent when the equipment is not good in the early stage.

Unless the equipment is crushing and there is an absolute advantage, few teams are willing to fight like crazy in the early stage.

In a fight, someone is bound to get injured. If someone is lost in the early stage, the rest of the game will be unsustainable.

Moreover, the resources in the early stage are limited, and just running around to search for resources will consume a lot of food.

We all don’t have enough resources. Even if we are lucky enough to win, we may lose all our money and get no reward at all.

However, with the shrinking of the safe zone today, only a quarter of the originally large map is left for movement.

With more than 6,000 people operating in such a small area, disputes are bound to arise.

If a weaker team encounters a team like Lu Yu's here, they will simply be killed.

Here, the weak eat the strong, and the strong are respected.

At the same time, be careful if there are other teams watching you behind you.

The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole leaves behind. This principle must be understood by everyone.

"Lu Yu, where are we going next?"

Zhan Kuang kept studying the map, thinking about the next course of action.

He looked at Lu Yu, hoping to get some advice from him.

"It's getting dark soon. It's better for everyone to stop walking around. Let's wait until the safety zone is refreshed early tomorrow morning before we think about it."

Lu Yu said after thinking for a moment.

"Okay, let's find a mine to hide in."

After Zhan Kuang finished speaking, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Lu Yu.

"No need to go anywhere else, just here."

Lu Yu said softly.

"Huh? Here? I've searched all over here, and there's no suitable place at all. Do we have to build a shelter by ourselves?"

Zhan Kuang looked puzzled. He had just patrolled the area. This place was so desolate that he didn't even find a mine.

"Don't be impatient, just listen to what I have to say."

Lu Yu signaled him to stop talking, and then continued: "Since we can ambush players here, why can't we use the terrain here to kill monsters?"

He pointed to the top of the mountain.

"You want to lure monsters here to kill? Is this... too dangerous?"

Zhan Kuang said with some worry, these monsters are huge in size, have amazing attack and defense, and have hundreds or thousands of HP.

It's fine if it's alone, but if it attracts a large group of monsters, their team will be in a dangerous situation.

"It's okay. We can make some traps. When they fall into our trap, the only thing left to do is to close the door and beat the dogs."

Lu Yu said confidently.

He had wanted to do this for a long time, but he had been wandering outside alone before and didn't have enough manpower.

Now that he was back in the team and the terrain here was more suitable, he came up with this idea.

Although their team is already equipped with top-notch equipment compared to other teams.

But that's just because the equipment of other players is too poor. They only have epic weapons and a few pieces of diamond armor, and all their equipment is made of iron sheaths.

Lu Yu wants everyone to be armed to the teeth so that he can feel safe.

Monsters that appear at night are a good source of equipment and supplies.

Lu Yu is now more than enough to deal with a monster by himself, and among the others, only Tang Yuan can withstand the monster's attack alone.

Tang Yuan, Zhan Kuang and Lu Xiaotao could barely kill one by joining forces. Qin Xueer was a priest, so combat effectiveness was not very important to her.

Her main job is to provide auxiliary effects such as healing and buffs to the team.

This requires that her equipment must not be too bad. Although she already has the best priest weapon,

But the other equipment is just ordinary equipment, and the amount of milk is still somewhat lacking.

The priest seems weak and has no fighting power.

But on the contrary, the priest's position in the team is more important than the output position.

A good priest is simply the enemy's nightmare.

After the two sides finished fighting, they all went back to heal in a low-health state.

Before the enemy recovered a few blood, the team had already rushed up again with full health.

If the enemy is not in good condition, it can only be killed by the team.

This shows the importance of the priest. Qin Xueer is the strong backing of the team.

As long as she is alive, Lu Yu and his team will not die.

Next is Lu Xiaotao, a mage. Mage is also an extremely imba profession.

There is no need for any operation. As long as the equipment is good, the skills are thrown and it's done.

As for the Berserker, it doesn't rely on equipment much, but relies more on operation to improve combat effectiveness.

After all, it has to fight with the enemy in close combat, and the damage caused by its own attack has a blood-sucking effect, which is also quite tough.

As long as you can dodge the enemy's attack, you can cause a lot of damage, which is still a test of positioning and game operation.

As for Tang Yuan, Lu Yu couldn't think of any way to improve him.

He was just an old turtle who took a beating, and his shell was covered with thorns!

Lu Yu tried to fight him in a duel, although his damage could penetrate his shield and 100% fell on Lu Yu.

However, the rebound effect of the Golden Holy Shield was really too much for Lu Yu to handle.

If Lu Yu could cut Tang Yuan's blood by 10 points with one sword, it would rebound back to 20 points, 200% rebound damage, extremely terrifying.
