Chapter 250: Chapter 250 – Final, Steal or Stolen

Getting to the first target would be impossible before the other players who spawned close to it. Hence, Max chose to get to the school, which was located halfway and the location where the thief who got the target would visit to score a point.

The tournament was 30 minutes long; it was a short game. Each point would be a precious commodity that all players sought.

Arriving at the school, Max climbed the fence and stood on it. The first he noticed was a pedestal on the field, around 1 meter high. It had a blue glow that caught everyone's attention.

'That must be it. But...' He looked around the area and noticed another pedestal on the roof and one near the gym. 'There are other pedestals, huh? I won't be surprised if there are some inside the school too. I guess it's to prevent the players from camping around it.'

Still, Max didn't really mind that. The target was still shown in the mini-map, although it was now moving toward his direction. Someone had taken it and was now on their way to earn a point.

Looking at its general direction, Max muttered, "That way, huh?"

He jumped down the fence and landed spectacularly before breaking into a run. After getting a good look at the school, he knew camping would be useless without working with the other players. And working with other players was forbidden by the rules.

So, the best bet was to wait on the path between the target and the school and steal it at that moment.

'He will pass this way.'

Stopping at a three-way intersection 100 meters from the school, Max hid behind a building pillar while looking at the minimap. According to the speed, the one holding the target would arrive in 10 seconds.

The red dot was slowly approaching him. He was ready to jump, shoot, and snatch the target. However, something unexpected happened. The red dot suddenly made a 90-degree turn and went to the left just before the intersection, through the building.

Max's eyes widened in surprise, and he jumped out from his hiding place, looking at the place where the red dot was. At that moment, he realized he hadn't played this game a lot yet.

"Goddamn it!"

Two people appeared from the intersection. They were Moxy and UloTai. Noticing Max, the former shouted.

"Puppeteer get the target! If you don't want him to score, then you better chase after him!"

It was close to Max's location. He immediately activated his shoes and jumped high, landing on the street on the East. He ran fast and arrived at the Midnight Club just 20 seconds later. There was no sign of other thieves yet.

They probably waited around the school to snatch the target or were on the run now. Both weren't important, it was the risk that Max could take.

Locating the target with the minimap was pretty easy. He found it on the first floor of the Midnight Club. The target was in the form of a card with a red highlight.

"They changed it to something easy to hold, huh? Good job, devs."

Having a jacket was a good decision. He hid the card in the inner pocket.

At that time, he heard the door opening. Someone had broken in.

Blending with the NPCs on the first floor, Max secretly went to the second floor and exited through the window. He hung on the ledge and dropped to the ground safely before running toward the school. However, it wasn't smooth sailing.

"Got you!"

Snikki jumped from the shadow of a building and shot him. The energy bullet flew right to his face, and he dodged it by twisting his body. At the same time, he shot back, and the bullet hit his opponent, paralyzing him for 3 seconds.

"Try quieter next time," Max said as he passed through Snikki and went toward the small street between houses in the residential area.

As long as Puppeteer didn't hinder him, he would be able to score a point. He hoped his hardest opponent would get the same strategy as him from before, waiting near the school for the next target to appear.

But, that didn't happen. The opponent was an experienced player. Instead of waiting, he liked to hunt.

Just as Max ran into the alleyway, he suddenly stopped because he heard the wind split. He followed his instinct and jumped back. Just as he did that, an energy bullet hit the ground from the sky where he stood earlier.

Looking up, he saw a shadow standing on a roof. The muzzler of a tranquilizing gun was pointed at him.

"Puppeteer..." He growled.
