Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness - Chapter 274:

Chapter 274: Chapter 271: Main Event

The answer leaves no room for doubt.

Yes.

The quartet slammed their car doors shut and hurried toward the hotel, their approach so fierce that if it hadn’t been for a prior heads-up, someone would have thought a sworn enemy had come for revenge.

The manager pulled back the curtains and glanced at the license plate number. Once it was confirmed to be correct, he didn’t wait for the men to come but opened the door in advance, even taking care to give a reminder to passersby when possible.

“Top floor on the right.”

The man leading, Boss, gave the manager a surprised look. After numerous capture operations, this was the first time he’d seen someone so cooperative, which left him with an uncanny feeling of being a lackey.

The manager noticed the four men arriving and smiled slightly to show friendliness.

As a hotel, they’d welcome the chance for a TV station to visit and film — it was a coveted opportunity. Of course, they’d serve them well, and as long as it wasn’t too destructive, breaking a few things was fine.

Of course, they had to pay for damages.

The armed foursome split into two groups. One group went through the lobby to the outside courtyard to lie in wait, following the usual protocol. The other dashed for the stairs and quickly went up.

At that moment, the scene switched to the room, and the viewers immediately saw a mosaic of pixels.

Bi Fang was drinking water. Seeing this scene, he almost spit it out, “Uh, seems like our protagonist just finished bathing. It’s the last day before the show starts, and I didn’t expect Mugalen to still have the mood for a bath.”

In the frame, Mugalen was a blur of mosaic, yet despite that, sharp-eyed viewers could still discern that he was almost one color — surely wearing nothing at all. You have to admit, he’s quite bold. On a day when capture was inevitable, he dared to leisurely take a bath.

Only when he picked up his underwear and put it on did the mosaic finally disappear.

Mugalen picked up the remote, intending to sit on the couch and watch TV, but then he suddenly heard hurried footsteps in the hallway. The heavy boots tapped against the solid wood floor, making a thumping sound.

“It looks like our protagonist has sensed the danger approaching.”

Bi Fang watched as Mugalen got up, went to the door, and secured the bolt. This way, even with a room card, the capture team outside couldn’t get in.

Not only that, but Mugalen even moved a chair to angle it in front of the door.

The rush of footsteps outside, plus the timing of events, gave Mugalen, with his hunter’s alertness, almost complete certainty that this was the capture team.

Realizing this, he didn’t bother to open the door to check; that would only be a waste of time. Whether he confirmed it or not, he would do the same, so any unnecessary actions should be omitted.

Then Mugalen began dressing, moving the table next to the bed aside. He had just poked his head out to look at the courtyard when he spotted two people also rushing over. Without a doubt, they were also part of the capture team.

Surrounded front and back, Mugalen looked around and set his gaze upon the little door on the bed, which led to the attic.

At this point, banging noises came from outside the door.

“Bang!”

The door burst open. Boss and Fourth Brother looked around the room but didn’t see their target. They asked through the walkie-talkie, and it was confirmed that no one had jumped out the window.

The two immediately began searching the room and soon discovered the attic entrance.

But as Boss just opened the door, a pair of legs suddenly kicked out, knocking Boss to the ground. Then Mugalen quickly pulled the door shut before climbing inside.

Boss was almost dazed by the kick, gasping for air on the ground. Fourth Brother immediately gave chase. Once he entered the attic, he found it extremely tight and saw that a skylight was wide open. Just as he got there, he could see a pair of legs dangling outside; Mugalen was struggling to climb up.

Unfortunately, before Fourth Brother had the chance to take aim, Mugalen had already escaped to the rooftop. Fourth Brother hurried after him.

“Quite a beautiful tactic,” Bi Fang couldn’t help but nod in approval, “When facing a siege by multiple people, if you have confidence in your own strength and stamina, the best method is to run towards narrow spaces. Try to create one-on-one situations as much as possible to reduce the effectiveness of the crowd tactic to the lowest level. At the same time, the narrow space also makes it inconvenient for firearms to aim.”

Almost at the moment Fourth Brother poked his head out of the skylight, a pair of large hands reached over, using the exact same routine.

In the rush, Fourth Brother could only face the attack, but never expected that Mugalen had a belt looped in his hand. With a few quick flicks, he somehow got the belt around Fourth Brother’s hand, then with a strong pull, he firmly trapped Fourth Brother’s hand and snatched away the anesthesia gun.

Mugalen took the gun and ran to the edge of the roof, then slid down the drainpipe.

The whole set of movements flowed like moving clouds and flowing water, and by the time the audience realized what was happening, Mugalen had already completed the first round of direct confrontation, with Boss and Fourth Brother almost utterly defeated.

Once Mugalen landed on the floor below, he stayed close to the wall, using the eaves to avoid the line of sight of the two men downstairs. He knocked the glass tiles with his hand, reaching in to unlock the latch, and pushed up the window, rolling into it.

Downstairs, Second Brother and Third Brother didn’t stay in the yard any longer and rushed towards the inside the hotel.

Hearing a rattle from upstairs, the manager quietly contemplated how much compensation to ask for, wondering if he could make a profit from this incident.

Mugalen, who had entered the room, quickly went downstairs, but before reaching the bottom, he saw Second Brother and Third Brother coming head-on.

He pulled out the anesthesia gun he had snatched earlier and shot Third Brother, who was in the lead, with a single shot. Then, with his tiger-like gaze, just as Second Brother was about to catch up, Mugalen suddenly flipped and leaped to the staircase one level below, avoiding Second Brother.

By the time Second Brother realized it, Mugalen wasn’t directly ahead anymore, but had moved to the stairs below, completely reversing direction. What should have been a chase upstairs suddenly became a chase downstairs, disorienting anyone. When Second Brother finally went down after him, Mugalen had completely vanished without a trace.

Boss and Fourth Brother also chased down from the top floor, but when the whole group passed through the lobby and onto the street outside, seeing the coming and going traffic, everyone’s heart sank with disappointment.

Another thousand dollars gone.

Boss gasped for air and threw his hat to the ground in frustration.

Damn it, are commandos all this fierce?

The whole capture process took no more than ten minutes, truly providing the audience with a feast for the eyes, giving them the thrilling satisfaction of watching a movie in a cinema.

So far, three escapees in total!

[I knew I wasn’t wrong about you, Mugalen is still strong]

[Worthy of being the man who entered the stage early, the last one to show up is always the mightiest!]

[To be fair, it feels like Master Fang has the best vision! Just one glance and he can tell who has it and who doesn’t.]

“It’s exactly as you predicted.”

Inside the RV, Jerret couldn’t help feeling impressed. When initially selecting items, he had asked Bi Fang for his thoughts, and the answer he had gotten was that the number of escapees would be between two and three. Looking at it now, it was indeed the case.

It has to be said, only a true expert understands another expert, and only a real master could accurately judge the strength of the competitors. This confidence also encouraged Jerret for the upcoming filming.

What is the biggest worry when producing a wilderness program?

Of course, it’s accidental loss of life, but with a powerful master on hand, the probability of accidents was reduced to the lowest level, and all safety measures could be checked and filled in.

Jerret felt a bit of satisfaction in his heart, no longer dwelling on this point, and called the show’s crew to action. The warm-up for the program had concluded, and what was coming next was the real highlight.

Eagerly anticipated by countless viewers.
