Teng teng teng~!

The sound of footsteps got louder.

Jembty crouched at the second-floor stairwell opening, holding his breath to concentrate on the sound of footsteps in front of him!

“Shifu, Shifu, I’m a little afu-raid.”

“Don’t be afu-raid! Shifu is right behind you.”

“But Shifu, why aren’t you in front?”

“Um... this is part of your training!”

On the first-floor stairwell opening, the two of them – Misaka Mikoto in front, Liu Zilang at the back – crouched as they silently looked upstairs. However, the corner around the hallway blocked their view.

If the tournament was played in the first-person perspective, the offense would have taken a different course of action. As the field of vision was the same for everyone, Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto would have been able to win the fight just by their sheer advantage in numbers.

However, under the third-person’s perspective, Jembty who was at the stairwell would be able to see Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto coming up the stairs. On the other hand, they would not be able to see him.

In other words, it was something like a wallhack in disguise.

Under such circumstances, it was vital to determine who would lead the offense.

After considering various factors, Liu Zilang decided to delegate that mission to Misaka Mikoto.

“Believe in yourself! You can do it!” Liu Zilang encouraged her.

“Hm! I can do it!” Misaka Mikoto took a deep breath.

“Go go go!”

“Chaaaaarge!”

The two of them rushed up the stairwell, pumped full of morale!

Jembty who was at the second-floor stairwell opening had thought that the two downstairs would first toss a grenade or something to test the waters.

He did not expect them to rush in recklessly without cover after having seemingly deliberated for so long!

‘Here’s my chance!’ Jembty’s eyes shone with a ray of hope.

Without giving the matter a second thought, he stuck his body out from behind the wall. Then, with his AK, he sprayed a volley of bullets at the two who were climbing the stairs!

Misaka Mikoto and Liu Zilang retaliated under the shortest possible time.

Tut tut tut~!

Tatatat~!

Bang!

Snakes of fire danced around the stairwell!

Countless bullets whizzed through the narrow space and the dull thud of metal hitting flesh was heard.

In the blink of an eye... Misaka Mikoto stumbled on her feet and fell face-first to the ground!

However, the wave of bullets did not cease!

Bang!

Just after Misaka Mikoto had fallen, another wave of shots appeared in front of Jembty’s face!

Blood spurted out from Jembty’s head. Before he could figure out what had happened, he was sprawled on the floor!

‘How’s his shotgun... so fast?’

Then, two lines appeared on the screen!

“4AM-Vic knocked out Menhera with S686!”

“4AM-Vic killed Faze-Jembty by headshot with S686!”

Everyone who witnessed the entire scene was shocked by how efficiently the team assaulted the building, and also by how efficiently Liu Zilang delivered those two shots!

‘Did that guy go berserk and attack his teammate?’ Everyone in the live-stream channel had the same question in their minds.

“F*ck, that guy is a monster! He has lost all his traces of humanity!”

“That’s right! He let our Menhera-chan charge up the stairs first! How could he be so merciless toward his teammate!”

“Reported! Don’t worry, Menhera, we’ll find justice for you!”

In the competitors’ area on the stage.

Misaka Mikoto was shocked for a moment. She puffed her cheeks and looked at Liu Zilang, her face was full of grievance.

Her expression said...

‘Shifu! I demand an explanation!’

“Ahem...” Liu Zilang coughed dryly when he noticed with the corner of his eye that Misaka Mikoto was pouting.

“Actually... I was protecting you!” Liu Zilang said with a serious face.

“Pro... protecting me?” Misaka Mikoto tilted her head, trying to process what he had just said.

“That’s right. That guy earlier took out too much of your health.” Liu Zilang’s tone of voice suddenly became passionate. “As your master, I won’t let anyone else kill you! Even if you die, you’ll die to my gun!”

‘Even if you die...

‘You’ll die to my gun!’

Misaka Mikoto’s cheeks turned bright red when she heard Liu Zilang’s ‘confession’, and she felt as if ten thousand deers were running wildly in her heart.

(*/ω＼*)

‘Shifu... what are you saying!’

She felt ashamed about herself for doubting her Shifu’s intentions! It was wrong of her!

Since it was a charity exhibition match, the caster had a sly idea. He switched to a player cam on these two players after the ‘friendly fire’ scene to provide some entertainment for the spectators.

The caster had imagined that the atmosphere between Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto would be very tense. They might have even been physically fighting among themselves.

Unexpected of everyone...

On the four big screens on stage, Liu Zilang was seen calmly looting the crate, both of his hands expertly controlling his keyboard and mouse.

Meanwhile, Misaka Mikoto who was next to him seemed to have the colors of a beautiful sunset on her cheeks. Occasionally, she would steal a glance at her teammate but then quickly look elsewhere. Her expression seemed like she had just eaten a pot of honey...

What the...?

The viewers in the Chinese live-stream channels did not know what was going on!

“F*ck... that’s the wrong genre!”

“Menhera-chan... was she knocked silly?”

“Boo hoo hoo, I don’t get it! This is totally unscientific!”

“Yeah! Why’s it that whenever I accidentally shoot my dorm mates, they pin me on my bed and then wail on me. After that, I can’t get out of my bed for the next few days!”

“Hold up, the guy who can’t get off his bed. You can’t just tell half your story.”

“...”

In the match, after a swift round of looting, Liu Zilang’s conscience finally caught up to him.

He unwillingly gave Misaka Mikoto a bottle of painkillers.

Then, he brought Misaka Mikoto to loot DrDisrespect’s crate in the room next door. They now at least had a complete set of rudimentary gear.

Liu Zilang was equipped with a level two helmet and a level one military vest while he wielded an AK and a Win94.

As for Misaka Mikoto, she was equipped with a level one helmet and a level two military vest. She wielded a shotgun and an M4.

The first circle refreshed on the map. The center of the circle was Los Leones, the biggest town in Miramar.

Pecado was not in the safe zone. However, the first circle covered a vast area. The people in Pecado only needed to climb over the hill east of the town, it was not very far away.

Because of that, the teams in Pecado were in no rush to leave the town.

On Hua Xia’s commentary platform.

“Alright, there are now six teams left in Pecado. One of them is a lone wolf that has just exited the boxing arena.”

“That’s right. The battle at the boxing arena has just ended, and the champions of the arena are Guru Qiu and Sloth. That was within expectations, the two players displayed a high level of coordination ever since they touched down.”

“Yup, and then there’s Vic and Menhera-chan... I guess you can say that they’re... coordinated as well?”

“Haha, don’t be so sarcastic. Wait! It seems like Vic and Menhera are planning to move out of town with a vehicle, but they’ve been intercepted!”

“...”
