Chapter 799

Clifford waved at her. “Aria, looks like we meet again. Did you guys just come out of a tough fight?” he asked.

Seeing that they didn’t seem hostile, Liz let her guard down a little and asked, “Haven’t you found a supply station yet?”

Clifford let out a sigh. “Yes, we’ve had terrible luck. All the supply stations we’ve run into turned out to be decoys. Did you guys already claim this one?”

From the side, a guy yelled, “Don’t trust Clifford. That guy is a complete snake. They already have a supply station; they’re just trying to help another team claim this one.”

Someone said, “Aria and her team are in trouble. They just finished fighting Brandon’s group, and now they’ve encountered Clifford’s team. What are the odds?”

Before, they used to say Aria’s team was lucky, but now they’re taking all that back. Their luck has completely gone down the drain. It couldn’t get any worse.

They almost got seriously hurt by hidden weapons. Then they ran into Sean, Brandon’s team, and now Clifford’s team.

If it were them, two consecutive fights would have completely exhausted them. And if they had to enter the third round, there was no way they could win.

Aria nodded. “This one’s ours. Go find another.”

Clifford smiled and asked, “And where are Cathy and the others?”

Liz replied, “They went to get the supply pack. They’re on their way. By the way, where’s Gerald? Why isn’t he with you?” Clifford’s team started with six, but now they were down to five.

The scout, Jason, lowered his voice and said to Clifford, “No ambush, but the footprints are a mess-lots of people have been through here.”

Not long ago, Brandon’s entire team was eliminated. It was evident that Aria and Liz had just endured a fierce battle. Clifford thought, ‘Wait, did the two of them wipe out Brandon’s whole team?’

Liz was just a tech, not much of a fighter. The only real game-changer here was Aria. Clifford’s guard went up, his eyes growing more wary.

Zoey said bluntly, “No need to waste words with them. Let’s take them down and grab this supply station right now.”

Clifford’s team had already secured a supply station. They’d teamed up with another group.

Gerald remained with that team to guard it, while Clifford led the rest to reconnoiter another supply station. At the very least, they wanted to determine its location so that they could attempt to seize it the next day,

Even though their team had a rookie, Gerald alone was equivalent to two people. Moreover, their fighters, Hank and Zoey, were not easy opponents. Overall, Clifford’s team was much stronger than Brandon’s.

On the communicator, Cathy was about to curse. The four of them had been guarding their place for a long time but no one came. Meanwhile, Aria’s side kept getting one wave of challengers after another.

Blame it on whoever set up the zones. They deliberately placed Sean’s D zone in the most obvious and easily findable spot, just to see if any teams would have the courage to take on the challenge.

1/2

Because of that, Aria arrived there first and claimed the supply station. However, since no one knew she had already beaten Sean, everyone thought she was an easy target and kept coming up to challenge her.

Liz felt a twinge of panic, but she forced herself to remain calm. “Aria had to defeat Sean just to take this supply station. If you attempt to seize it now, it will only result in a lose-lose situation for both sides.”

They had held out for so long. There was no way they would hand it over now. Aria could at least knock one of them out. But that would mean going head-to-head with Clifford’s team. Liz tried to persuade them to back off.

“She beat Sean?” Clifford blurted out, completely stunned. He stared at Aria in disbelief. “So those injuries on you were they given to you by Sean?”
