Excluding suicide-type aircraft.

Let's also exclude players like Brother Hui who have an exceptionally good start.

Hundreds of players attacked from all sides, and most of them actually played quite well, winning more than they lost.

There are three reasons.

Firstly, although the players are generally only level 4 or 5, their professions are incredibly diverse, including gangsters, cybernetic security guards, neural editors, template androids, ability controllers, and bounty hunters. These various professions form bizarre combinations, catching the Welfare Gang completely off guard.

Secondly, thanks to a few player traitors who marked all the spawn locations and activity areas of the gang members, the players were able to ambush, dig traps, and engage in guerrilla warfare, having a great time.

Thirdly, in order to completely eliminate the evil gang, Gao Jin transferred most of the gang's elites. Those who are now outside are basically peripheral members, and they do not have an overwhelming advantage in level.

Anyone want to team up in the parallel import street? There are three elite monsters!

"Three cybernetic security teams are seeking a neuro-editor to join them. Androids, get out!"

"Damn it, you look down on us androids? Believe me or not, I'll bite you to death!" — Red Flower Demon

"Whether it has crowd control skills or equipment is irrelevant, but the Mechanic skill is just too damn disgusting. Is this some kind of Cyber Haonan? He can turn the tables and kill you even when you're down to a sliver of health!"

Hiring a sniper for 200 tokens. Requirements: basic attack deals 50 damage, Gao Gong over 100. Price negotiable!

"Hiring a sniper for 200 tokens? Are you dreaming?"

"Same as above, I'm offering 400, a hefty reward for a sniper shot!"

The large group with 100 members has 999+ members, and the small team leader group also has 99+ members.

"I'm crying! Anyone want to team up temporarily? I've been decimated and am down to just one person!" I am the Muscle Man.

"What's going on with Muscle Man? Weren't you guys playing pretty well?" I love Baozi.

"I don't know which bastard leaked our identities, now I'm being hunted down by the entire gang! Those sons of bitches, they'll kill me on sight!"

"@RedFlowerFairy, @Airplane, are you two alright?" Sister Ji

"Hehehe, you looked down on us androids, now you know the advantages of us androids, right? Look who's here?"

[Images][Images]

The Red Flower Fairy posted two pictures in a row. The pictures showed an ordinary-looking man, the kind you wouldn't recognize if you saw him on the street.

"Holy crap, you got a new head?" I'm Big Muscle Man.

"Of course, who can recognize me now? [Smug][Smug]" Red Flower Fairy

@Airplane, where are you?

"..."airplane

"Your entire group failed?!" Baozi exclaimed in astonishment.

"This story begins with some idiot teammate insisting on detonating a liquid bomb, but the story is too sad to tell."

'...'

'...'

"@I'm a Muscle Man, team up with me, I'd like to grind more monsters." - Big Brother Hui

"Big brother, from now on you're my real big brother!" I'm the Muscle King.

I had a bad feeling about my love for Baozi, but who knew this big shot would also be doing a quest, and he even brought four level 10 bodyguards, both melee and ranged, they were incredibly powerful.

He quickly switched to private chat and contacted Sister Ji.

Of all the team leaders, Sister Ji is the least selfish. The reason is simple: she can't go out herself, so she can only follow along and gain experience.

Out of sheer boredom, she even made a list, marking out who had killed which monsters, their level, and the number of monsters they killed—essentially a quest leaderboard.

"Sister Ji, where am I in the queue?"

"Let me see... Not bad, Baozi, ranked fifth. He usually doesn't stand out, but he's been keeping a low profile!"

"Only fifth place?" Baozi was greatly disappointed.

"Nonsense, this is an elite group. Do you think just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can get in?"

Sister Ji rolled her eyes repeatedly.

"First place? Forget it, it must be Boss Hui, right?"

"Yeah, Umbrella Bro didn't come again. Who else could it be but him?"

"By the way, did you know someone secretly took a picture of Boss Hui? I almost died laughing."

[Photos][Photos]

I love eating steamed Baozi. I almost choked on my food when I saw the picture.

The eldest brother, Hui, who was being guarded by four "mafia" members, was surprisingly short, only slightly older than a baby. He was holding a pistol, had a pacifier in his mouth, wore a black suit and a top hat, and had chubby chins. He was incredibly cute.

"Godfather's adopted son, haha, I thought he'd be some kind of super-powerful, invincible figure. This is hilarious! According to him, this pacifier is actually a minor, top-tier piece of equipment—the kind that can restore health."

"Hahaha—" Baozi sent a few dry laughing emojis.

Sister Ji roughly understood what Baozi was thinking and sent several waving emojis.

"Little Bao, you're too caught up in the situation to see things clearly."

"This task chain is only in its second link. Why are you in such a hurry to be number one? Your most important task right now is to maximize your task completion rate."

"No matter who comes in first place, in the end, you're the only one who can become a prosthetic doctor."

Baozi sent a bowing emoji.

Sister Ji is right.

Sister Ji could tell at a glance that this guy was still a little unconvinced.

"Also, if you want to improve your ranking, don't just think about competition; where's your usual intelligence?"

What does Sister Ji mean?

"Come and latch onto his coattails! Boss Hui is such a formidable fighter. Knowing your usual behavior, shouldn't you be trying to get close to him at all costs? Find a chance to team up with him! If you don't latch onto the number one guy, who are you planning to cling to?"

That makes sense!

Baozi finally sent a prostrate emoji.

"I want to team up with Boss Hui and take down the boss together!"

After figuring things out, Baozi felt enlightened and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"It's a pity Umbrella Bro isn't here. If he were, with Boss Hui and Umbrella Bro together, we could really try assassinating the leader of the Welfare Gang."

Ko Chun was completely bewildered by the large-scale assassination plot targeting members of the Welfare Gang.

He never even considered that it was the senior engineer's doing.

There was no way around it; the identities of the assassins targeting the Welfare Gang were incredibly diverse, including company employees, gang members, unemployed individuals, DJs, and outsiders. Gao Jin even began to wonder if he had done something heinous recently, otherwise how could there be such a motley crew, including even a pastor!

You've already converted to Christianity, and you're still messing with me?

Faced with this large-scale assassination attempt, Gao Jin was caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, he could not abandon his long-planned attack on the Evil Gang. On the other hand, if he did not make a strong response immediately, everyone knew that he, as the leader of the Welfare Gang, would not be able to control the situation.

He himself was hesitant, and his dozen or so Double Flower Red Sticks were also arguing. Some suggested that they should immediately go back and kill all the troublemakers, while others suggested that they should temporarily consolidate their forces, guard a few important strongholds, and settle accounts after defeating the Evil Tuo Gang.

The two sides argued fiercely.

"It seems you're in a little trouble."

A lazy voice rang out.

Immediately, a young man who looked like both a mechanical ninja and a Jedi Knight sat up, grinned at the fat man opposite him, revealing a mouthful of alloy teeth.
