Global Game: I Can Choose Instance Rewards-Chapter 560 - 379: Came Looking

Effortlessly obtaining two pieces of excellent-grade equipment, along with various other rare items, Wang Zhifan couldn’t help but feel a surge of ambition.

"If I eliminate all the players in the tower now, would I gain an enormous amount of loot?"

He entertained a thought he would never have considered before, which showed how easily people can fall into a downward spiral once they start.

But he then dismissed the idea for a simple reason—he suddenly realized that he must learn to maintain restraint. Randomly killing might not have severe consequences in this instance, but forming such a dependency could easily make him a public enemy outside, leading to endless trouble.

"Better to call it quits while ahead; even killing should be done in moderation."

Having made his decision, Wang Zhifan once again returned to the top floor of the Black Tower to continue his cultivation.

For the rest of the night, it was relatively peaceful. Although there were occasional battles between players and monsters or between players themselves in the Black Tower, Wang Zhifan indulged his curiosity once and then ignored them, continuing his cultivation at the top floor until the next daylight.

At this moment, the Shadow Desert was already bathed in the scorching sun. The many shadow monsters of the night had long since vanished, and the surroundings of the Black Tower appeared very tranquil.

Suddenly, the brass door of the Black Tower opened automatically, and two players emerged. One was a middle-aged man from Xia Country with a square face, and the other was a young Asian woman. The two walked out of the tower chatting and laughing.

"Brother, we can’t find much food in the tower. Staying here might not last us a month. We should find a way to hide in the native area."

The young woman suggested to the square-faced middle-aged man next to her that they leave, as she had grown weary of the place after just one night.

The square-faced middle-aged player showed some hesitation on his face, clearly not fully agreeing with her. He replied:

"Sister, although we didn’t find enough survival supplies in the tower, we can try trading with other players. If nothing else, I have some stockpiles that I can share with you if necessary. There are ways to get through this period...

As for returning to the natives, I don’t think that’s a good idea. The natives might have abundant resources, but they hold too much hostility towards us. Even a slight oversight could land us in the same dangerous situation as before, surrounded by a large group of natives, and our lives might even be at risk..."

His cautious words indicated that he preferred to endure with less food and drink in the Black Tower rather than face a massive assault by the natives.

His remarks immediately prompted the young female player beside him to roll her eyes in silent exasperation and mock:

"Brother... Do you really want to last a month here? You look quite impressive and manly, how can you not dare to take some risk? You’re even more timid than I am, a woman..."

While the two were conversing, they had already walked out of the base of the Black Tower, stepping into the scorching desert, observing the surroundings, seemingly looking for possible resources or scouting a route to leave.

Before they could take further action, another player’s figure emerged from the brass door of the Black Tower. It was the Xia Country gunman who fought fiercely at the desert’s edge the day before.

Still dressed in a crew cut, sunglasses, and trench coat, he had a revolver in his right hand spinning rapidly.

Upon seeing two unfamiliar players in front, his eyes behind the sunglasses showed a hint of surprise. Then, in the next instant, he decisively opened fire! Two bullets shot towards the square-faced middle-aged man and the young Asian woman outside the tower!

The attack happened so suddenly and came from a skilled gunman player, creating significant trouble for the two outside.

The square-faced middle-aged man’s head showed traces of blood after being hit, prompting him to roar angrily. His body radiated dazzling white light as he charged towards the bronze door of the Black Tower, intent on fighting the attacker. The young woman was even worse off, letting out a scream as she collapsed. Fortunately, as she fell, she went into an invisible state and disappeared, seemingly not taken down by a single shot.

"Two melee players? Their strength seems quite average... Heh... Watch me keep you from the door!"

The Xia Country gunman’s willingness to act directly indicated his intent to hunt these two unfamiliar players. As someone accustomed to aggressive moves, clearing punishment-level instances was what he found truly thrilling, inciting his fervor and excitement.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

Standing at the Black Tower’s entrance, he fired five consecutive shots at the charging square-faced compatriot, repeatedly disrupting his advance and causing the light emanating from him to rapidly dim, indicating successful depletion.

Given that the middle-aged man was in a very unusual state, bathed in radiant white light, signifying that he was using some skill or equipment offering substantial defensive shooting capability, as long as it wasn’t absolute defense, it could be broken with sustained attacks. Gunman players loved exploiting their range advantage to torment their enemies.

The square-faced middle-aged man, hit by multiple shots, felt discomfort but could not stop his charge. He had to endure the enemy’s attacks and charge towards them. The current environment was too unfavorable for him, surrounded by desert with no suitable cover. If he didn’t break through the enemy at once, he’d be stuck in an endless kite-running process or might as well rush into the tower and never come out again as an alternative strategy.
