A burst of chaotic gunfire sent Feng Bujue scrambling into the undergrowth.

He was lucky. In those five seconds, more than thirty bullets had been fired at him, but not a single one had grazed him.

"Haa... haa..." Those few seconds of frantic running left Feng Bujue gasping for breath. He was, after all, using the body of a forty-year-old man, and his explosive power was far inferior to that of a young man. "Hoo... something's not right..." Catching his breath, he mused, "Sweeping me with two submachine guns like that, they clearly don't intend to leave me alive... Such an obvious assassination attempt, who else would do that besides me?" Thinking this, he quickly turned around, hiding behind a tree to peek out.

Soon, the answer presented itself.

Two men wearing striped sailor suits and capri pants, with bandanas wrapped around their heads, were walking out of the jungle across the stream, each holding an AK-47.

"Holy crap... who are these guys?" Feng Bujue didn't remember seeing these two competitors in the opening CG, and their attire didn't look like program staff... Even if they were staff, there was no reason for them to be carrying AKs and shooting at the contestants, right?

"They're pirates."

Suddenly, a strange voice came from behind Feng Bujue.

Startled, Brother Jue turned around sharply and saw...

"Shhh—don't be afraid, I'm one of us." A man dressed in traditional Arab robes, a thobe, was looking at Brother Jue with a serious expression, lowering his voice as he said, "I'll explain the specifics later, let's take these two guys out first..."

"Uh... okay." Feng Bujue only considered it for a second before deciding to do as he was told.

In that second, Brother Jue's gaze had swept over the AK slung over the thobe-clad man's shoulder, and the curved knife at his waist (the blade of the curved knife seemed to be stained with blood that hadn't completely dried).

So, he thought to himself: If Deng-shu harbored any hostility towards me, I would already be either dead or injured. He was able to come up behind me without me noticing, but he didn't attack me... This shows that he is indeed "one of us." And those two men with headscarves are undoubtedly the "enemies"...

"Um... military shovel, knife, slingshot..." The man in the thobe glanced at Brother Jue and then asked, "Do you have any other weapons? Like... a gun?"

"Yes." As he spoke, Feng Bujue pulled a pistol from his pocket. "Six bullets." At a time like this, he wasn't going to play any games, he said what he had.

"How's your marksmanship?" the man in the thobe asked quietly, his voice even lower than before, because the two men outside the bushes were getting closer and closer.

"I'm more than ninety percent sure I can hit the torso within three meters, seventy percent within five meters, but any further... it's hard to say..." Feng Bujue gave a more cautious and honest answer. He knew that at a time like this, it was best to be realistic, boasting or showing off could have serious consequences.

"Then save your bullets." Unexpectedly, the man in the thobe gave such a response. "I can handle them myself."

"Huh?" Feng Bujue was stunned for a moment.

While he was in a daze, the man in the thobe had already readied his AK, lowered his body, and moved out sideways.

"Who's there!" The two pirates outside were chasing Brother Jue, so they were focused. As soon as they saw the moving black shadow, they shouted and raised their guns to shoot.

However, they were fast, but the man in the thobe was even faster.

And... more accurate!

All that could be heard was "pa pa pa pa". The AK in the man's hand only sounded four times, and the heads of the two men in the distance exploded like watermelons.

After being headshot, the bodies of the two pirates twitched and fired a few more shots, but the shooting was inaccurate, and the bullets flew into the sky.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the man in the thobe completed a beautiful double kill.

Feng Bujue, in the bushes, was dumbfounded. This kind of shooting ability was definitely something only shooting-type players above level 40 could have, and maybe even higher... Because the man's physical fitness, dynamic vision, reaction speed, etc.... were probably not as good as those of a level 40 player.

"Hoo... took care of another two." After killing the two pirates, the man in the thobe breathed a sigh of relief with a relaxed expression, muttering to himself.

"'Another'..." Feng Bujue, who followed out of the bushes, couldn't help but repeat the keyword.

The man in the thobe turned his head and looked at him: "Heh... you thought... where did I get this AK in my hand?"

"Um... now that you mention it, I understand..." Feng Bujue's mouth twitched as he replied, "The original owner of this AK has already become a victim of the blade at your waist, right..."

"That's right." As he spoke, the man in the thobe walked to the bodies of the two pirates and began searching them.

Feng Bujue had always been eager to loot corpses, so he quickly walked over and started searching the other pirate's body. While searching, he asked, "So... can you tell me the 'specific situation' now? Like... who are they? Why did they want to kill me?"

"They didn't want to kill 'you'." The man in the thobe replied, "But to clear the entire island." He paused. "Oh, right... they are pirates and drug traffickers. The captain's name is Graybeard; the first mate is Max Gray, Graybeard's son; their ship... or rather, submarine... is called the 'Parrot', named by the captain in memory of his dead parrot pet..."

"Hey, hey, hey... wait a minute..." Feng Bujue couldn't help but interrupt. "How do you know so much in detail?"

The man in the thobe, busy searching the corpses, replied without looking up: "You saw the blood on my knife, right?"

"Um..." Brother Jue responded.

The man in the thobe continued: "Generally speaking, in a one-on-one situation, I don't need to use a knife to kill... Even if I do, there won't be so much blood on the knife..."

"Oh..." Feng Bujue was who he was, he understood as soon as he heard this. "No wonder the distribution of the bloodstains is a little strange... So it was left behind during interrogation..."

"Where was I... Oh, right..." The man in the thobe brought the topic back on track. "That's a group of pirates, the total number... is around sixty, and twenty-six came to the island for the search, in pairs. Not every group has two AKs like this, most of them are still mainly pistols, and some are equipped with knives." As he said this, he had finished searching the body in front of him. "About an hour ago, the program's cruise ship was captured by the pirates. Fortunately, the director and the others destroyed the ship's surveillance, so we have a chance to play a game of cat and mouse with these pirates here..." He pulled the bolt of his gun, stood up handsomely, and slung the AK back on his back. "Anyway... 'Wilderness Drug Run' is over, buddy..." He looked straight into Brother Jue's eyes, revealing a strange smile, "Now, let's play something for real..."
