7 Sneak Attack? Thrilling Escape Game!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After equipping the shoes, Brandon's speed increased.

The journey, which originally took five to six minutes, only took two minutes after he put on his shoes.

Looking at the nearby Grand Town, Brandon observed it closely as he approached it. The place had a very distinct "wild west" style.

The town seemed to be built entirely made of wood, and most of the buildings did not look particularly sturdy, yet seemed to be doing a good job of keeping the wind and sand out. Most of the buildings were one story tall, and there were very few two-story buildings.

Brandon was not in a hurry to find a house to enter and plunder resources from. Instead, he roughly observed the layout of Grand Town.

In an escape game, the more familiar you were with the map, the more confident you would be in hunting down enemies and evading pursuit.

This was his new experience as an expert player in escape games before he transmigrated.

While he was getting familiar with the map, he was also observing the area.

His observation revealed two things:

1. There were no soul tombs.

2. There were no footprints, and there were no signs of damage to the doors and windows of any of the houses.

From these two points, Brandon came to a conclusion: he was the first person to come to Grand Town.

The only thing that was unclear was whether the players were teleported to a random location in the escape game, or if they were all at the edges of the map.

Most of the escape games he had played belonged to the first type, where the players were teleported to a random location.

However, he did not dare to make such an assumption about the escape game he was in now.

"When will my damned memory recover?!"

Brandon was a little upset.

He was actually an outsider to this world. If he could have all the original memories of this body, it would undoubtedly make his life more convenient, not only in the escape games, but also in the prison of the real world.

"No! After I go back, I must find a way to recover my memories. At the very least, I must find my memories of the escape game. It's undoubtedly a disadvantage if everyone else knows except myself."

After imprinting the general layout of Grand Town in his mind, Brandon walked into the house closest to him and began to search!

Compared to the dilapidated palace at the beginning, the internal structure of the house in Grand Town was relatively simple. Although there were more rooms, the search was quicker.

Brandon looked at the increase in green-quality materials in his backpack and was delighted.

As expected of Grand Town, the materials were much richer than the dilapidated palace.

After he finished searching the first house, Brandon entered the pub next door.

Due to the limited space in his backpack and the fact that he had to consider the weight, he had no choice but to start thinking about what to bring and what to leave behind.

Brandon took a long time to think, but he did not panic. After all, there was no one else in Grand Town. It was all his.

In the end, he decided to throw away the white dagger in his backpack to make room for other resources.

Suddenly!

Brandon's ears twitched slightly.

"Someone's here?!"

His physique of 17 gave him an extraordinary hearing ability.

Hearing that it was coming for the building he was in, Brandon hurriedly entered the inner hall.

Compared to the residential houses, the interior of the pub was much simpler.

There were two main parts, the main hall outside and the inner hall inside. Both areas were large and spacious.

As soon as he entered the inner hall, there was a sound coming from the door of the pub.

Someone was here!

Brandon stopped all his movements, not letting himself make any noise, so as not to scare away the prey outside.

"Tap... tap... tap..."

The sound of footsteps approached from afar and then suddenly stopped.

"Equipment?!"

"...White dagger, what a piece of trash!"

"It's either a white dagger or an energy drink, why are they all white-quality!"

"Weren't the resources in Grand Town quite good? Why does it feel so ordinary?"

Brandon was calm as he waited.

He waited for the person outside to approach the inner hall to search for items.

"Tap... tap... tap..."

The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer. Brandon held the dagger tightly in his right hand.

Suddenly!

The sound of footsteps disappeared!

"Boom!!!"

The wooden wall that had split the inner hall and the main hall into two was shattered into splinters. A fat, round, mean-looking man with a helmet and wielding a greatsword in both hands rushed in from the hole. However, when he saw that there was no one in the inner hall, he was stunned!

"What's going on? My double hearing clearly heard the movement. How could there be no one?"

After saying that, he began to search the inner hall.

It seemed like he wanted to find the second exit of the pub.

Meanwhile, the invisible Brandon became more and more cautious.

'This person...is so crafty! He clearly knew that I was here, yet he still pretended not to know and wanted to make a surprise attack!'

'Fortunately, I have infinite invisibility, otherwise, he would have succeeded!'

It seemed that although infinite invisibility was an SSS-class talent, it was not all-powerful, so he still had to be more cautious.

After the fat man searched around, he did not find anyone. He also did not find the second entrance of the pub. He scratched his head and said, "Could it be that I heard wrongly?"

The doubt only lasted for a while. He did not pay much attention to it and began to search for equipment in the inner hall.

He was exactly two meters away from Brandon's current position!

Brandon's eyes turned sharp.

Now!

Instant step!

The distance of two meters was instantly crossed in the blink of an eye. Before the fat man could hear him, Brandon had already arrived behind him.

Aiming at his heart, Brandon used his dagger to stab.

[You have hit the target's vital point (heart), causing 141 critical hit damage!]

While causing critical hit damage, the fat man was also stunned for 2s.

Without giving him a chance, Brandon quickly attacked again.

[You have hit the target's vital point (heart), causing 141 critical hit damage!]

[You have killed an enemy (Chris Allen)!]

[All your attributes have been increased by 5 points (only valid in this game)!]

A series of system notifications rang out, and Brandon felt a wave of relief in his heart.

Along with the notification of his attributes, he felt that the strength of the dagger in his hand was getting stronger and stronger, and his body was becoming lighter and lighter.

"I can't score a critical hit to the head with a helmet on?"

"That doesn't matter, you have a heart!"

"Armor doesn't have a special effect that prevents critical hit damage!"

Brandon did not attack the fat man's head because he noticed the helmet on his head. If he attacked the head, he would be immune to the critical hit effect.

The damage would be greatly reduced and he would not be stunned.

After the attack, he would still appear.

Even if he had the advantage of surprise, the benefits of attacking the head would be too little.

Fortunately, the system notification told him that the critical hit only needed to hit the vital parts and not the head.

Brandon looked at the soul tomb that Chris had turned into. "Let me see what good stuff you have."
