MMORPG: Martial Gamer

Chapter 1686 1686: The Cruelty of the World

Of course, although Radiant Shiner was shameless, this group of people did play a significant role.

Sanguine Thousand Miles ran at a speed that was completely unrecognizable to anyone else, and in the crucial moments, a few people managed to block his path. Because of this delay, Sanguine Thousand Miles reached the end of Central Street, turned left, and disappeared at the street's end.

Based on the principle of turning corners, Wang Yu knew that if he followed behind Sanguine Thousand Miles, he would definitely end up losing.

The only way to catch Sanguine Thousand Miles was to wait directly at the destination.

From the route Sanguine Thousand Miles took, it was clear that he intended to go to the teleport point in the east of the city.

Wang Yu thought for a moment, then leaped and used the wall to propel himself up to the rooftop. He then unleashed his Qing Gong skill and headed towards the eastern teleport point.

Aside from the teleport point in the east of the city, the closest teleport point to Central Street was still quite far. However, from his vantage point on the rooftop, Wang Yu had a clear view of the routes leading to other resurrection points, so he didn't need to worry about Sanguine Thousand Miles changing his route on a whim.

After all, it was Wang Yu using his Qing Gong skill that greatly enhanced his speed. Even if Sanguine Thousand Miles was a full agility archer, he still lagged far behind Wang Yu in terms of movement speed. Moreover, Wang Yu was taking a shortcut, so if Sanguine Thousand Miles decided to change his route, he would only make it easier for Wang Yu to catch up.

Sanguine Thousand Miles was also aware of this, so he didn't dare to look back and desperately ran towards the eastern teleport point.

Everyone learned in elementary school that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.

Once Wang Yu activated his Qing Gong skill, his speed was unmatched. Although Sanguine Thousand Miles had a head start, Wang Yu quickly closed the gap between them.

In elementary school math terms, it was like this: Little Xue could run XX kilometers per hour, while Little Niu could run XX×2 kilometers per hour. Both aimed for the resurrection point in the east of the city, with Little Xue taking route A and Little Niu taking route B. The question was, when would they meet?

Sanguine Thousand Miles had always thought that the protagonists in elementary school math problems had a twisted mindset. Yet he never expected that one day he would become one of those protagonists…

The eastern teleport point was quite close to Central Street, and half a minute later, Sanguine Thousand Miles finally saw the teleport point and the NPCs within it.

Hope was right in front of him, and for the first time, Sanguine Thousand Miles found the NPCs at the teleport point to be incredibly charming.

However, before he could feel overjoyed, Sanguine Thousand Miles suddenly saw a shadow fall from above him.

Looking up, upon recognizing the figure, he was immediately frightened to the core, secretly amazed, "Damn, how did this guy catch up so quickly?"

"Nowhere to run!"

In mid-air, Wang Yu also saw the panicking Sanguine Thousand Miles and shouted, extending his left hand, a beam of white light shot towards Sanguine Thousand Miles.

"Damn it!"

Sanguine Thousand Miles, well aware of the power of Wang Yu's Void Seizing Hand, was taken aback and quickly dodged forward to evade Wang Yu's attack. He then sprinted desperately toward the teleport point.

As he ran, he shouted, "Not good! Iron Bull is killing people!!"

I must say, Sanguine Thousand Miles was quite clever. He knew players in the game loved to watch a commotion, and by shouting like this, he would undoubtedly attract the attention of players passing by on the street. With more people around, it would create a blockage, making it harder for Wang Yu to catch him.

Sanguine Thousand Miles's little scheme was indeed clever, but unfortunately, he miscalculated this time… Of course, he couldn't blame anyone else; it was his own fault for shouting out Wang Yu's name.

Originally, the players on the street were curious about the commotion. However, upon hearing that the one killing was Wang Yu, all the players on the street froze momentarily, then quickly started to back away, pressing themselves against the walls like they were trying to avoid a hot pot…

Rather than creating a blockade behind Sanguine Thousand Miles, it was as if the area had been cleared, leaving a wide space.

From this, it was clear that the overall quality of the players in Twilight City was far superior to that of players in other main cities.

There was no helping it; after all, the one doing the chasing was Wang Yu. When it came to life and death, players in Twilight City were easily able to make their choice.

……

Wang Yu had never feared anyone when it came to running, and naturally, Sanguine Thousand Miles couldn't outrun Wang Yu who was using his Qing Gong skill.

Just as Sanguine Thousand Miles was about to step into the teleport point, Wang Yu, trailing behind, appeared right behind him with a series of afterimages.

Wang Yu reached out, grabbing Sanguine Thousand Miles by the collar and delivering a kick to the back of his knee.

"Ow!"

Sanguine Thousand Miles let out a cry of pain as Wang Yu pinned him to the ground.

The street around the teleport point instantly fell silent, with everyone pressing against the walls, staring intently at Sanguine Thousand Miles, who was being held down by Wang Yu, their faces filled with confusion.

Who the hell is this guy that he can provoke such a powerful figure to personally hunt him down?

……

Seeing the players from Twilight City around him, Sanguine Thousand Miles felt like crying but had no tears.

The world is so cold! What kind of society is this? Not only does no one dare to intervene in a public execution, but not even a spectator dares to appear… This is too dark!

"It's fine, it's fine! Everyone just go about your business!"

Under the gaze of the players from Twilight City, Wang Yu felt a little embarrassed and repeatedly waved to everyone. After that, he dragged Sanguine Thousand Miles's leg, leaving the teleport point like he was dragging a dead dog.

After all, as the city lord, he had to lead by example and set a good precedent for his citizens. Killing someone in public was very undignified.

Moreover, if he killed Sanguine Thousand Miles here, Sanguine Thousand Miles would just respawn, so it would be cleaner and neater to drag him to the archer's resurrection point to kill him. Once dead, he would respawn without needing to run all over the place, just like farming monsters. Wouldn't that be delightful?

……

Seeing that Wang Yu did not kill him on the spot, Sanguine Thousand Miles realized Wang Yu's intentions and quickly messaged Radiant Shiner and the others: "Hurry and save me…"

"Damn it!"

Upon seeing Sanguine Thousand Miles's message, Radiant Shiner and the others felt their heads spin and couldn't help but say, "We're at the archer resurrection point, we don't see you!"

"I'm not dead yet!" Sanguine Thousand Miles replied irritably.

"Did you run?"

"No!" Sanguine Thousand Miles sighed in frustration, "I got caught and am being dragged toward the resurrection point. If he kills me at the resurrection point, I'll be trapped, hurry!"

"Ha ha!"

Just as Sanguine Thousand Miles finished sending the message, he suddenly heard a cold snort. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw Wang Yu looking at him with a half-smile and said, "Are you messaging someone to come save you? I advise you to stop; they'll just end up running for nothing! After all, we're all going to meet at the resurrection point!"
