In that desolate location, even trees were sparse, making it a perfect spot for sniping.
If Ye Lingchen and Lin Ruoyu just stood there, they would be like target dummies.
What can he do?
Ye Lingchen gasped for air. Both of them were stuck close together with Ye Lingchen laying atop Lin Ruoyu, not daring to move an inch.
The small mound was really low, barely reaching half a meter. Furthermore, it was really small, just enough to hide the two of them. They could only try their utmost best to lower their body profile. If they showed their heads they would be shot by the sniper.
"Lingchen, what do we do now?" Lin Ruoyu asked in a low voice. She could almost feel Ye Lingchen's warm breath hitting her face.
"I'll think of a way." Ye Lingchen tried his best to take in the view of his surroundings, formulating a plan to escape.
Following that, he strained his ears to listen.
The birds in the sky flew by continuously. Along with that, he heard the birds frantic words as they flew away from the sniper.
"I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die! Help!"
"That human is so ugly. Especially that mustache above his lips."
"He's such a coward, hiding between that big rock and tree even though he has a gun."
"Aiya, come look over there. There's a man and woman hiding. The man is lying on top of the woman in public. So perverted!"
There were many birds, which led to many random voices mixed in his hearing. However, Ye Lingchen did manage to obtain a few important pieces of information.
First of all, that man had a mustache. Secondly—
He tried looking up as high as he could. Based on the direction the birds were flying from, he made out a general direction.
There was a huge rock jutting outwards over there, surrounded by the cover of trees. It was the perfect hiding spot.
"You stay here. Don't show your head!" Ye Lingchen ordered as he started removing the weights on his wrists and ankles.
"You mustn't go out!" Lin Ruoyu's expression changed drastically, holding tightly onto Ye Lingchen's clothes. She looked extremely worried and her eyes were red.
"It's fine. He won't be able to kill me," Ye Lingchen answered with a nonchalant smile. With the weights removed, his entire body felt free.
The weights added up to a total of 70kgs. Ye Lingchen made a rough estimation that his speed would be at least two times faster than usual. Paired with his Parkour skill, his speed would be close to flying.
"Can't we just stay here? Our reinforcements will be arriving soon." Lin Ruoyu looked at Ye Lingchen, "That's a gun! Furthermore, it's a sniper from Earth's Gate. He's definitely above average. You'll die if you show your head!"
