Glug glug glug!

Hoo...

Glug glug glug!

Hoo...

Misaka Mikoto’s head appeared on the surface of the sea for a moment before it immediately ducked back down. She had warned Liu Zilang over the team voice chat.

Liu Zilang’s eyelids twitched and black lines dropped from his forehead when he saw that Misaka Mikoto was in the sea.

He did not know that after Misaka Mikoto had touched down at the southernmost warehouse, her luck was equally bad as his. She did not manage to get herself a gun and was chased by the person behind her with a revolver.

She had no other choice but to go into the sea.

The opponent who had the revolver did not give up on her. Instead, she played whack-a-mole with her and ‘punished’ her by letting her soak in the sea.

That person’s teammate was wielding an M16. He had heard the gunfire near Liu Zilang and could not resist sneaking over there. It was pure coincidence that Misaka Mikoto had spotted him when she resurfaced for air.

Misaka Mikoto did not know that Liu Zilang was playing dead at the moment. Looking at his health, she thought that he was engaged in a battle with someone...

On Hua Xia’s commentary platform.

“Oh! That’s K3 from team AHQ along with the Taiwanese girl streamer Yuniko.”

“So Yuniko is playing whack-a-mole... no, clubbing a seal now, heheh. By the way, Menhera-chan’s life has been difficult ever since the start of the match.”

“I think Menhera-chan should count her blessings because Yuniko is the one who’s chasing after her. If it was K3, I think she would’ve been dead even before she entered the sea.”

“K3 is now sneaking up toward them from behind while TS is still reviving his teammate! There’s a chance this time!”

On the big screen of the tournament, K3, who was wielding an M16, was seen carefully tiptoeing toward the backdoor of the middle warehouse. Under the third person’s perspective, he positioned his camera behind the door and sneaked a peek outside. He saw the two people of team TS who were in the midst of reviving.

Free kills!

An expression of glee appeared on K3’s face, and he swiftly raised his gun!

Tatatat~!

A flurry of bullets whizzed across the air.

Maxiz0r, who was kneeling on the ground, was alerted when he saw muzzle flash come from behind him. Before he could warn his teammate, his teammate died!

“AHQ-K3 killed TS-Draedon with M16A4!”

“TS-Maxizor was finally killed by TEXQS.”

With his teammate dead, Maxiz0r’s screen turned black, and he was immediately brought into the air.

“Better Luck Next Time!”

There was a saying that one’s life flashed in front of their eyes just as they were about to die. Of course, there was no such setting in the game.

After Maxiz0r was killed and eliminated from the match, he recalled the events that had happened, trying to figure out if there was something wrong...

Just as he was about to leave his seat with his teammate, he accidentally saw something on his grayscale death screen.

He felt like he had been struck by lightning as he stood on the spot, unable to move. On the other hand, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!

‘What’s that?!’

At that moment, he saw the corpse that was lying next to the tree move his left leg to scratch his right leg.

‘...Playing dead?’

Maxiz0r suddenly felt like an idiot!

Meanwhile, K3 felt like a champion after he had picked up an easy kill and directly eliminated a team.

He took a quick look around the area and noticed that he was not in danger. Then, he crouched to scoop up the crates’ contents.

“Wow! Bro Jianhao, you’re, like, so great!” His teammate Yuniko said in a cute voice.

“It’s nothing, it’s just an exhibition match. Many people aren’t very careful about their surroundings.” K3 waved his hands to indicate that it was a basic maneuver.

“Come, like, help me! This person is, like, hiding in the sea! I don’t like it!” Yuniko flirted.

K3 slapped his chest as he spoke with confidence, “No problem, just keep an eye on her. I’ll let her know the true meaning of cruelty!”

K3 saw that the crates had nothing but rudimentary items, and there was nothing special to be picked up. He grabbed two frag grenades from the crates and immediately ran back to the beach.

At the same time, Liu Zilang watched uneasily as that person looted the crates all around him. That person even stepped on his hand.

Shortly after, some other matter seemed to have gotten that person’s attention. Hence, he quickly ran away.

Liu Zilang breathed a sigh of relief.

With his health level close to being an actual corpse, he dared not make any big movements. He crawled to the crate in front of him and saw a Vector which the previous person did not bother looting.

With only a Molotov cocktail on him, beggars could not be choosers. He quickly equipped the Vector as he felt grateful while reloading the gun.

Boom~!

A huge explosion was heard near the beach!

Liu Zilang lifted his head doubtfully and tried to guess what was happening.

As expected, Misaka Mikoto’s frantic voice was heard in the voice chat soon after, “Shifu, Shifu! They’re trying to explode me! Aaaaaa...!”

The corner of Liu Zilang’s lips twitched.

His health was at a critical level, and there were no healing items on him or around him.

The best course of action for him was to prioritize survival and abandon Misaka Mikoto in the sea.

Seated next to him, he saw that Misaka Mikoto was as lost as a puppy as she struggled in the water.

Liu Zilang suddenly recalled the scene of him teaching her swimming at the beach in Jianghai. He suddenly had a pang of conscience.

‘Whatever!

‘If I die, I die!’

He quickly said, “Swim away from the beach! Try to divert their attention, I’m coming to save you!”

“Oh, oh!” Misaka Mikoto nodded.

Liu Zilang did not follow K3’s return path. Instead, he went through the front entrance of the middle warehouse and sneaked his way toward the backdoor.

Behind the door, he could see the two people on the beach.

“Vic is planning to save his teammate?”

“But looking at his current amount of health... he could be easily knocked out with one bullet, right?”

“Not to mention, his Vector doesn’t have much ammo left. Let’s take a look. Oh! He only has 13 bullets left, exactly one clip.”

“I think there’s a great chance that both master and disciple will turn into crates this time...”

The three commentators furrowed their brows when they saw Liu Zilang dare confront the two assailants despite being at such a disadvantage.

The live audience members and stream viewers felt anxious for him as well. Even though they had witnessed Liu Zilang perform many miracles, there was no guarantee that he would survive the ordeal.

On the beach, Yuniko saw that K3 was about to throw another grenade. She wobbled her upper torso and said, “Bro Jianhao! Let me, like, throw that grenade, please! I want to fry some fish too!”

“Oh well, here you go,” K3 stole a glance and felt a little giddy.

‘Alas, I am but a poor malnourished farmer!’1

In the game, he acted cool and threw the grenade over toward Yuniko.

Yuniko quickly picked up the frag grenade and pulled its safety pin.

She saw Misaka Mikoto in the sea, and her face suddenly turned vicious. “Why do you hide from me! Let me blow you up, you stupid turtle!”

Yuniko was ticked off after not being able to take her down with the revolver.

Misaka Mikoto swam further into the sea like an abused puppy that had been thrown into the water.

At that instant!

The grenade had not yet left Yuniko’s hands when a flurry of bullets came from behind her!

Swish swish swish~!

Like raindrops on the beach, a cloud of blood spurted from Yuniko’s back.

Her knees grew weak, and she fell to her knees on the beach. Her head was lowered, and she could only watch helplessly as the bouncy, chewy grenade in her hand...
