Kar98K Upon Touchdown!

Chapter 682: Try Summoning Another One?

Bolt action sniper... headshot from the hip?

Upon seeing this ‘Awakened Dragon’ that was as fast as lightning, countless live audience members and live stream viewers were shocked!

“F*ck me upside down! That was a divine display of skill!”

“Can someone tell me how that b*stard Vic has such accurate hip-firing skills?”

“Bro, haven’t you heard of the ‘Human Implant Hack’ before? Hip-fire without hesitation with just a single payment of 998 yuan!”

“Don’t listen to him, he’s a scammer! I only charge 98 yuan. Why so cheap, you ask? That’s because we’ve cut out the middlemen!”

“...”

The chat room in the live stream digressed from the original topic. Meanwhile, the commentators on the commentary platform were astounded by what had just happened and were analyzing the scene.

“Did anyone notice Vic swap weapons earlier?” Ruo Feng started with a hint.

“Ha! Who wouldn’t have noticed such an obvious move? Vic was obviously feinting an opening.”

Lord Rong laughed and said, “Tsk tsk, I’ll have to commend the bravery of Western players though, even though they might be a little too easy to read.”

“Heheh, I believe the reaction earlier is most likely a stress response.”

Su Changming smiled as he shook his head. “It’s true that all of us commentators and live audience members were nervous about how the situation would unfold. Needless to say, the players in the match would have felt even more nervous.”

“In such a situation, you can’t even see your outstretched hand. If you suddenly heard someone swap weapons when it’s quiet all around, I bet your first response would also be to shoot at them too.”

“Hiss~!” Lord Rong sucked in a breath of cold air. “Now that you mention it... Vic’s ability to read other people’s minds is a little scary here.”

“I don’t think it’s just a psychological battle. That headshot from the hip was also an awesome display!” Ruo Feng exclaimed, “All these details from an encounter between top-tier players, my scalp is beginning to feel numb. One mistake and it’s game over!”

“I have to mention that Vic’s victory here has shown us the true value of the game. It’s not just about accuracy and skills with a gun; it’s also about psychology and tactics. They alone can make the difference between victory and defeat, and life and death.”

“...”

In the game, after having eliminated Karl’s team, Liu Zilang let out a long sigh of relief since there were no more troubles plaguing them from behind.

Truth be told, even though he was the victor of the encounter, Liu Zilang was not confident that he would be the one who came out alive. This was because he was facing an opponent of such high caliber in the thick opaque white smoke.

That was why he had decided to dance on a sword’s edge, swapping to his Kar98K and gambling his life with his opponent.

Apparently, luck had treated him well.

Before the smoke dissipated, Liu Zilang quickly swept up the contents of the two loot crates.

After swapping into a fresh set of armor and using some consumables, he swiftly headed over to the two-story guard tower that was in front of Factory to rendezvous with Misaka Mikoto.

It has to be mentioned that Liu Zilang had picked the right spot to camp.

As time passed, the two people crouching behind the second-floor window of the guard tower occasionally saw people pass by them from outside the safe zone or other places.

Of course, some of those people had spotted their location and wanted to claim it as theirs.

Every time, Liu Zilang noticed them promptly.

The two players gave warning shots to claim dominance over their location. Those opponents quickly changed their minds after that.

Their spot was easy to defend and hard to mount an offense on unlike Factory.

Factory was surrounded by climbable walls on all sides and its perimeter was easy to breach.

Gunfire erupted from inside Factory!

The teams outside its walls were eager to storm the location.

The situation at Factory became like a siege: The people inside wanted to go out, while those outside wanted to go in.

Meanwhile, Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto who were on the second floor of the guard tower were like nosy onlookers. Whenever they saw someone appear in their field of vision, regardless of whether that person was inside or outside those walls, they would sneak in a few shots.

The fourth blue circle coincided with the boundaries of the same zone. When the circle refreshed, light shone from Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto’s eyes, and they became incredibly animated!

The guard tower was still within the safe zone.

“Oh, this circle! Looks like whoever bet on low has won the gamble!”

“That’s right. Vic and Menhera-chan are winners too since their position is within the safe zone.”

“Hm, tsk tsk... Do you think that the circle will move away from Factory later...”

“Move away? Like toward where Vic is? Um... I don’t think that kid has that kind of luck.”

“Have you forgotten about Menhera-chan? She’s the chosen one who can summon Heavenly Fire!”

“Hm... now that you mention that golden koi carp, it’s hard to say...”

...

In the match, Liu Zilang stole a glance at Misaka Mikoto who was feeling good about herself.

He thought about how in the last match, he had never gotten a single destiny circle. On the other hand, with Misaka Mikoto around, it was destiny circles all the way.

‘Maybe I’m the unlucky one?

‘Impossible!’

Liu Zilang shook his head and quickly abandoned the thought of it.

‘I must trust in science!

‘It must be because the system had a pang of conscience and is now making amends!’

As Liu Zilang pondered over the matter, the gunfire at Factory slowly died down. On the other hand, the gunfire at Mylta Power became more and more intense.

There was no other reason.

The teams there had a long drawn-out fight.

The intensity of the fight died down when the circle refreshed.

They saw that they were not in the safe zone anymore, and so they were forced to fight for their lives.

Otherwise, who would want to expose their butts to their enemy when they moved from Mylta Power to Factory?

On the second floor of the guardhouse, Liu Zilang looked at the chaos of the outside world and congratulated his own wisdom for finding a small ‘holy land’ for himself.

Creak!

Suddenly, without warning...

The door downstairs opened!

Liu Zilang’s heart skipped a beat. “There’s someone below us!” he said urgently.

“Hm, hm! I also heard him, Shifu!” Misaka Mikoto nodded urgently.

“F*ck, when did that guy come over?”

“I... I don’t know!” Misaka Mikoto replied shamefully.

On the tournament big screen, the live audience members and live stream viewers watched with bated breath as two interlopers sneaked into the guard tower.

The two people were none other than Vivian and popular YouTuber Angelia.

“Oh, darling! This is so exciting!” Angelia, who was red-haired, exclaimed as she held her hands over her mouth. She had entered the door and could not believe it.

“Sshh!” Vivian held a finger to her lips and spoke softly, “The two people up there are very strong, we’ll have to be careful! Hmph! None of you can escape this time!”

Apparently, while Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto were having the time of their lives by shooting out of the second-floor window, Vivian had discerned the situation in the area after looking at the kill notifications. That was why she had taken the risk to sneak over with Angelia.

Vivian was angry over her shameful loss to Heavenly Fire in the previous last match, so much so that she could not even take a drink during break time. Since they had met once more in this match, it was natural that she was eager to exact revenge on them.

‘Summon Heavenly Fire?’

Vivian harrumphed in her heart.

‘I’ll see you try summoning another one!’
