Kar98K Upon Touchdown!

Chapter 681: The Dragon Awakens!

Misaka Mikoto was slightly taken aback when she heard what Liu Zilang had said.

‘Did Shifu... have that much trust in me all along?

‘Hm, I must not let Shifu down!’

She was instantly filled with the spirit of battle. She lifted her MK14 toward the smokescreen and switched it to full automatic mode!

Tatatat~!

A dragon made of fire emerged from the muzzle of her gun, and it began dancing wildly!

In the smokescreen, Karl and the club manager of SKK were running with abandon when a storm of bullets came pouring in. It was well within expectations.

Both of them were mentally prepared for it, so they were not too surprised.

They had imagined the bullets to be like a gentle breeze and a slight drizzle. However, when the bullets pierced through the smokescreen in torrents, they realized that it was not as simple as they had thought.

Splat!

Without warning... the SKK’s club manager’s head exploded with a spurt of blood. The MK14 was not as deadly as the Kar98K which instantly killed anyone not wearing level three gear but it’s the damage was still fairly threatening. One headshot and his health was in the red!

“Oh my god! Menhera-chan headshotted someone in the smoke!”

“Now SKK’s manager is in a precarious position! If another bullet grazes him, it will spell certain doom!”

“Is there a chance? For another hit?”

At this time, the two of them in the smoke performed an action that no one thought was logical.

SKK’s club manager crouched and used a healing item on the spot. On the other hand, Karl, like a mountain, resolutely stood in front of his teammate, blocking the line of fire from Misaka Mikoto.

The scene was reminiscent of an old cow lovingly licking her calf clean...

However, this was one of using oneself as a meat shield to block bullets for a teammate!

It had to be said that it was a resolute and wise decision!

Rather than gambling on one’s luck in the smokescreen when at critical health, one might as well stop and fully heal one’s self before anything else.

In the smokescreen, Karl saw bullets whizz past them, and he let out a sigh of relief.

He knew that he had made the correct decision.

His opponent was not a demon.

The stray bullet earlier was at most a lucky coincidence. How could they know their exact position?

He was pondering about it in his heart when suddenly, he heard a thud next to him!

Without warning...

A bullet passed through the space between his legs, and it hit SKK’s club manager squarely. At that time, he was still using a first aid kit.

“Menhera-chan knocked out SKK-Conrad with MK14!”

There were no more bullets following that shot. Karl’s experience told him that the opponent had not stopped because they felt like they had enough, but it was because their magazine was empty.

It meant that...

The last bullet of his opponent’s clip that passed through between his legs and had struck the manager.

Hiss~!

‘Insanely good luck!’

Karl instantly felt like crap!

In the meantime, the voice chat of Liu Zilang’s team was filled with Misaka Mikoto’s cheerful voice.

“Shifu! Shifu! I knocked one out!”

‘How can it be?

‘She can hit like that?’

Liu Zilang gave out the order earlier for Misaka Mikoto to apply a little more pressure on the opponent.

He had not expected his silly disciple to perform beyond her duty and straightaway knock out an opponent.

With that in mind, he hesitated no more. From the cover at the edge of the blue circle, he ran toward the smokescreen in great strides.

However, his grenade arrived before he did!

Fire in the hole!

A frag grenade was flung from his hand. It traced an arc in the air and fell into the smokescreen.

Boom!

A deafening explosion!

Within the smokescreen, a ball of fire broke out and black smoke billowed. Then, the silhouette of a body was seen flying out of the smokescreen.

“4AM-Vic killed SKK-Conrad with frag grenade!”

One to knock out and one to finish off.

The lethal combination by Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto had reduced their opponent’s team size by one.

With thick white smoke obscuring his vision, Liu Zilang could not discern Karl’s position.

His judgment was nonetheless spot on.

After swapping to his M16 and rushing headlong into the smoke, Liu Zilang did not drop his guard when faced with an opponent such as Karl.

With the extremely low visibility of the smoke, all his senses were sharpened. His eyes and ears were tuned to any slight movement in his surroundings.

Under the caster’s camera, from God’s perspective, Liu Ziang and Karl looked like two blind men who were moving around while half-crouching. With each careful footfall, the battle of life and death went on!

“The two people are fighting each other head-on!”

“Vic and Karl are extremely careful with their footsteps, it’s as though they’re both walking on a tightrope over a cliff!”

“That’s right. In such a situation, danger sense and intuition are thrown out of the window. It all comes down to their gun skills and reflexes!”

“Oh, they’re getting closer to each other! This time...”

In the match, after having blindly stumbled about while half-crouching in the smoke, they could not escape the destiny that had been set in stone for them.

Rustle~!

Rustle~!

At the same time, both of them discerned each other’s footsteps.

As if they had both been put under a spell, they both froze in place.

The flow of time seemed to have slowed down. Even the air within the smokescreen seemed to have turned solid!

The caster switched to a dual player cam for both players.

Their eyes squinted slightly, it was as if they were trying to come to a conclusion about the source of each other’s slight footsteps.

Suddenly, Liu Zilang performed an unexpected action.

He swapped the M16 in his hands into his Kar98K.

Ka-cha!

It has to be mentioned that in the game, the act of swapping weapons produced a sound. More than often, the sound of it happening was much louder than that of footsteps!

Upon hearing the sound of someone swapping weapons, Karl’s gaze sharpened. Then he unleashed his weapon like it was a dragon!

Tut tut tut~!

Liu Zilang saw a bright white spot being illuminated amidst the smoke in front of him the moment the Kar98K landed in his hands!

Swish swish swish~!

Bullets whizzed toward him like a crashing wave!

Blood appeared on Liu Zilang’s body. However, he dodged to the side with a quick step.

A series of hurried footsteps were heard. The opponent was charging toward him!

Rustle~!

Shortly after, both of them met face to face.

“Whoa~!”

The live audience members who were holding their breaths as they watched the scene unfold silently, suddenly let loose and gave out a collective cry of surprise!

At that instant between life and death...

The AK in Karl’s hands flashed. It drew an arc toward Liu Zilang and turned into a crescent saber!

Liu Zilang, who was still half-crouched, lifted the muzzle of his Kar98K.

Without even scoping in, he fired a shot from his hip!

The dragon awakens!

Tata-

Bang!

In the blink of an eye, the rapid gunfire of the AK abruptly stopped!

Thud!

The fight in the smokescreen was like a clash between two legendary swordsmen. The moment they crossed shoulders!

One of them fell to the ground!

“4AM-Vic killed SKK-Karl by headshot with Kar98K!”
