Delta: Who are you saying has suffered a loss of strength?

Chapter 290 Trouble Spree Again

"There are six teams in total for Dam Zero, with three people in each team."

Han Che said to Qi Yuzhe, who was sitting on the sofa, "For the operation the day after tomorrow, we'll be in teams of three, and the other five teams will most likely all be the enemy."

"Damn, isn't that obvious? Once you're on the map, everyone except your teammates is an enemy. What's the big deal?" Qi Yuzhe retorted.

"However, these five teams are united as enemies, and they even take orders from the same person," Han Che explained.

"What's going on?" Qi Yuzhe exclaimed in surprise, his eyes widening. "If all 15 of them huddled together, even a god wouldn't stand a chance against just the two of us!"

"Can't we just break it down into regular one-on-one or two-on-one skirmishes?"

Han Che shook his head. Raven's idea was the same as his own. The best way to fight outnumbered was to break it down into one-on-one situations and defeat them one by one.

"There are two difficulties now. The first is the information gap. When the enemy has a numerical advantage, it is very difficult to get information. In single combat, if you miss even one position, it will lead to a huge disadvantage."

Han Che analyzed the reasons for the previous defeat, especially on the first floor of the East Building, where he couldn't figure out the exact number of people and their distribution, almost putting himself in an extremely disadvantageous situation.

The ability to sense killing intent is only effective in determining the enemy's location during combat; its effectiveness is limited during the positioning phase before a fight.

By the time the fight actually begins and you sense the opponent's killing intent, you may already be caught in a trap.

Moreover, this world lacks the items available to GTI operators from the previous game, making it impossible to accurately pinpoint enemy locations, which adds further difficulty to splitting the battle into one-on-one engagements.

Qi Yuzhe's expression turned serious as he pondered a solution.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Han Che continued, "The second point is that the firepower of a single person is still insufficient. No matter how you operate, there is only one line of fire. So I need you to draw the line of fire for me, so that at least you can control two directions at the same time."

"Me, provide cover fire?" Qi Yuzhe asked, sounding somewhat displeased. "Aren't you an assault player? Providing cover fire is your job. I'll cover for you."

Han Che's face turned cold. "Stop trying to bargain with me! Don't forget what you promised me in that prison cell!"

"You personally agreed that once we're in the player world, all firefights and command of operations must unconditionally follow my orders. What nonsense are you spouting now?"

Qi Yuzhe raised his hands, looking helpless. "Fine, fine, I surrender. I'll listen to whatever you say! But you have to make your reasoning before I listen to you. I won't do it if you ask me to die."

Han Che was too lazy to argue with him and continued, "Then there will be three of us: you, me, and Xiaobai. Although Xiaobai is not as strong as you or me, he won't be a burden, so the pressure will be much less."

Qi Yuzhe nodded, "Just treat her like your boss. Let her find a place to hide and wait."

"You know quite a lot!" Han Che said, somewhat surprised.

"I did my homework before I came, don't look down on me! I might even know more than you!"

……

The next morning, a rather jarring cell phone ringtone suddenly broke out in the previously quiet room.

Han Che sat up abruptly from his single bed in the bedroom. His reaction was incredibly fast; he grabbed his phone almost the second it rang.

Looking at the caller ID, it was Xiaobai calling.

Han Che rubbed his throbbing temples, straightened up, pressed the answer button, and held the phone to his ear, asking in a deep voice, "What's wrong, Xiao Bai? Calling so early, did something happen?"

On the other end of the phone, Xiaobai's voice sounded anxious and extremely tired.

"Ah... Han Che, you're still not awake? I'm so sorry to disturb your rest..."

"It's okay, I'm awake now. Just tell me what happened." Han Che gently patted his cheeks twice, trying to clear his somewhat groggy mind as quickly as possible.

Without further hesitation, the person on the other end of the phone took a deep breath and lowered her voice, "Han Che, it seems our previous plans have encountered some serious problems and cannot proceed as originally planned. We need to make other arrangements!"

"What's going on? The application for the Zero Dam Operation quota can't be approved?" Han Che asked, frowning.

"No, that's not it. Our club has already applied for and secured three spots, but Boss Kim, the one who fired the gun and exposed our team's location, is causing trouble again."

"He heard that we successfully escorted Boss Zhao, and he insists that we escort him again. He even said that our club is deliberately targeting him, and now he's causing trouble again..."

Han Che then clearly heard some background noise on the other end of the phone.

"Are you alright? Who's at the club? Qi Yuzhe is with me too. Don't get into a fight with them. We're coming over now!"

"Qiuying is here. The mule says it's on its way here, don't worry..."

"Okay, wait for me, I'll be right there."

Han Che then hung up the phone, quickly changed his clothes, and pushed open the bedroom door.

However, before she could even take a step, she bumped into Qi Yuzhe, who was crouching furtively at the bedroom door with one ear pressed against the crack.

"Little Bai~ Are you alright~ Wait for me, I'll be right there!" Qi Yuzhe grinned, clapping his hands and deliberately using a disgusting tone to say this, "It feels so safe, Warden!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Han Che was a little annoyed. Ignoring Qi Yuzhe's smug look, he pushed open the door and walked out.

"Oh dear, you're so easily amused! Hey! I haven't even put my coat on yet, wait for me!"

Twenty minutes later, a rental car stopped downstairs at the 78 Club.

Han Che and Qi Yuzhe climbed out of the car one after the other.

There weren't many people gathered at the club's entrance this time, probably because Han Che had already met many of the Joker's gang members, so they didn't send anyone else.

As soon as Han Che and his companion arrived at the door, they saw Boss Jin, who had a beer belly and wore gold-rimmed glasses.

This guy was holding a phone high up, spinning around in circles while yelling and shouting into the live stream screen in his hoarse, broken voice.

Behind the front desk in the lobby, Mule and Qiu Ying stood there, their faces ashen, though they were filled with anger but dared not retaliate.

"Dear viewers in the live stream, come over here and give me, Lao Jin, my opinion. Take a good look at what this so-called 78 Tomb Raider Club is all about!" Boss Jin walked around the front desk while shoving the camera right up to Qiu Ying and Mule's faces.

"They keep saying they're putting the boss first, but what's the result? They haven't come up with a solution after all this time!"

"Other bosses are very supportive, but they're trying to ruin me! They're bullying me, targeting me, aren't they?!"

"I even spent a fortune buying equipment from him! He thinks I'm rich and just wants to fleece me!" Boss Jin spat as he spoke into the phone camera, constantly stirring up trouble and shouting insults in the live stream.

Han Che pushed open the door and came in. Mule saw him like he'd seen a savior. "Brother Han! You've finally arrived!"

Han Che ignored Boss Jin, who was jumping around in front of the camera.

He walked to the front desk with a grim face and asked in a cold voice, "Where's Xiaobai? Where has she gone?"

"Huh?" Mule was taken aback, not expecting Han Che to ask Xiaobai the first question.

Qiu Ying picked up the conversation and said in a low voice, "Xiao Bai is inside. She's the boss. Why is the live stream being filmed on her? I let her in. You should go in and talk to her about it."

Han Che nodded. "Okay, I understand. Leave it to me." He then strode into the conference room.
