Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Exclude those suicidal players like Plane.

And exclude players like Eldest Brother Hui who are extremely lucky.

Over a hundred players attacking from all sides, most actually performed quite well, winning more than losing.

There are three reasons for this.

Firstly, although most players are only level 4 or 5, their professions varied greatly: mafia thugs, prosthetic body security, neural editors, bionic men, superpower wielders, bounty hunters—forming all sorts of bizarre combinations, catching the Welfare Gang off guard.

Secondly, thanks to a few player moles who marked out all the gang members’ spawn points and activity locations, players were ambushing, digging traps, and engaging in guerrilla warfare, having a blast.

Thirdly, to thoroughly deal with the Evil Gang, Gao Jin pulled out a bulk of the elite from the gang. Now, only the peripheral members were left outside, without an overwhelming level advantage.

’Anybody up for a team on Counterfeit Street? There are three elite monsters!’

’Three prosthetic body security teams looking for a neural editor to join, bionic men stay out!’

’Holy shit, underestimate us bionic men, huh? Believe it or not, I’ll bite you to death!’ Red Flower Demon

’Anyone got control skills or gear? Mechanical art is so damn annoying. Is this Cyber Hongnan or what? Even when it’s down to a sliver of health, it can kill back!’

’Hiring a sniper for 200 mechanic tokens, requirement: normal attack deals 50 damage, over 100 high attack, price negotiable!’

’Hiring a sniper for 200 mechanic tokens? Is the person above dreaming?’

’Same here, I’m offering 400, big bucks for a sniper!’

...

The group chat is flooded with over 999+, and the squad leader chat is at over 99+.

’Crying here, anyone wanna team up? I’ve been cut down to just me!’ I am a Big Muscle Dominator

’What happened with the Muscle Dominator? Wasn’t your muscle squad doing well,’ I Love Eating Buns

’No idea which bastard leaked our identity, now I’m being hunted by the whole gang! Those sons of bitches attack as soon as they see me!’

’@Red Flower Demon, @Plane, you two okay?’ Sister Ji

’Heh heh heh, looking down on us bionic men, now seeing the perks of being us, huh? Guess who this is?’

Red Flower Demon sent two photos in a row, showing an utterly ordinary-looking man, the kind you’d pass on the street without recognition.

’Holy crap, did you change your head?’ I am a Big Muscle Dominator

’Of course, now who can recognize me? [Smug][Smug]’ Red Flower Demon

’@Plane, Plane, how about you?’

’...’ Plane

’Your group got wiped out!?’ Baozi was shocked.

’This story begins with a certain idiot teammate who insisted on igniting a liquid explosive, but the story’s too sad to tell.’

’...’

’...’

’@I am a Big Muscle Dominator, team up with me, just in time to grind more monsters’ Eldest Brother Hui

’Eldest Brother, you’ll be my real brother from now on!’ I am a Big Muscle Dominator

I Love Eating Buns felt a bit uneasy. Who knew this boss was also doing the tasks, bringing four level 10 bodyguards, both melee and ranged, utterly fierce.

He quickly switched to private chat and contacted Sister Ji.

Among all the leaders, Sister Ji was the least biased, simple reason being she couldn’t leave and just leeched experience.

Out of sheer boredom, she even made a spreadsheet, marking down who killed what monsters, levels, and quantities, essentially a task leaderboard.

’Sister Ji, what’s my ranking now?’

’Let me see, not bad, Baozi, you’re fifth, usually so low-key, hiding deep enough, huh!’

’Only fifth?’ Baozi was disappointed.

’Nonsense, this small group is an elite group, do you think any Tom, Dick, or Harry can enter?’

Sister Ji sent a string of eye-rolling emojis.

’First place, well, must be Boss Hui, right?’

’Yeah, Brother Umbrella isn’t here, who else would it be.’

’By the way, did you hear someone secretly took photos of Boss Hui, almost died laughing.’

I Love Eating Buns glanced at the photos and almost spat out his drink.

To see Eldest Brother Hui, protected by four ’mafia’ guards, was actually a three-inch shortie, barely bigger than a baby, holding a pistol, with a pacifier in his mouth, wearing a black suit and a top hat, two chubby chins, adorably over the top, unbelievable.

’Mafia Godfather’s foster child, haha, I thought he’d be some fierce warlord type, this is hilarious, and according to him, that pacifier is a rare item, can regenerate health.’

’Hahaha——’ Baozi sent a few dry laughter emojis.

Sister Ji seemed to pick up on Baozi’s thoughts, sending several waving-off emojis.

’Oh Bao, you’re so clueless.’

’The task chain is only on the second ring, why rush for first place, what you should focus on now is to maximize task completion.’

’Regardless of who is first, only you can change profession to Prosthetic Doctor in the end.’

Baozi sent a clasping hands emoji.

’Sister Ji makes sense.’

Sister Ji saw he was still a little unconvinced.

’Also, if you want to improve your ranking, don’t just think about competition, what about your usual smarts?’

’What do you mean, Sister Ji?’

’Cling to a powerful ally, Boss Hui is so strong. Normally, wouldn’t you say you’d latch on by any means? Look for a chance to team up with him, if you don’t cling to the first place, who will you cling to?’

’Makes sense!’

Baozi finally sent an emoji of being completely floored.

’I’m teaming up with Boss Hui to take on the boss together!’

After figuring it out, Baozi’s mind cleared, and he couldn’t help but sigh.

’Too bad Brother Umbrella isn’t here. If he was, with Boss Hui and Brother Umbrella, we could really try assassinating the Welfare Gang’s leader.’

...

Faced with the large-scale assassination campaign targeting Welfare Gang members, Gao Jin was utterly bewildered.

He hadn’t even thought it was the handiwork of Gao Gong.

But there was nothing he could do; corporate employees, mafia members, the unemployed, DJs, aliens—the assassins targeting the Welfare Gang had such diverse identities that Gao Jin even suspected whether he had done anything recently to incur everyone’s wrath, or why would there be people from all walks of life, even a priest!

Even if you’ve joined the faith, how can you still mess with me?

Facing this large assassination operation, Gao Jin was at a crossroads. On one hand, he couldn’t abandon the long-planned attack on the Evil Gang. On the other hand, if he didn’t respond strongly immediately, everyone would know he couldn’t hold the position of Welfare Gang’s leader.

Hesitant himself, the dozen Double Flower Red Staff men under him were also in a dispute. Some suggested immediately retaliating and wiping out the troublemakers, while others proposed temporarily pulling back forces and holding several key points, settling scores after defeating the Evil Gang.

The two sides argued endlessly.

”Looks like you’ve hit a little snag.”

A lazy voice cut in.

Then a young man, resembling both a mechanical ninja and a Jedi Knight, sat up, revealing a smile of alloy teeth at the fat man opposite.
