Chapter 697: Show Off All You Want, I, Vic, Am Still the Better Player!

At the end of that battle, Liu Zilang hastily ran forward to inspect the spoils of victory.

First, he opened Jembty’s crate. He saw that he had not managed to pick up anything from the airdrop crate.

‘No wonder it looks like he died bearing a grudge...”

After picking up some consumables, he ran over to the airdrop crate.

He saw a full list of items, including the jet-black M24. Feeling happy, he quickly dragged all the items into his backpack.

However, what Liu Zilang did not know was...

His shiny level two helmet had been locked onto by someone else!

The live stream viewers felt their hearts become cold as they watched him. Many of them gave him their condolences on the bullet screen.

“Wreaths on both sides and a photo of Vic in the middle. I cry for him.”

“Too bad... All that effort just to benefit someone else...”

“By the way, isn’t it said that Russian men are very brave? Why is this Drainys sneaking up on someone’s butt?”

“I think sneaking up on someone’s butt is a brave act too.”

“LOLOL but this Drainys is really patient. He didn’t fire a single shot while Vic and Jembty are fighting. It looks like he was waiting for this.”

“Tsk tsk, looks like he’s also a graduate from the Academy of Cunning Tricks. He might even be a tutor there too.”

“...”

Bang!

The clarion ring of a sniper being fired.

A muzzle flash was seen from the rooftop of the puzzle building. A sniper bullet pierced through the sky as it headed toward a certain point on the slope!

Just as the commentators were preparing a eulogy for Liu Zilang, nothing appeared on the top right corner of the screen...

What happened?

Did Liu Zilang dodge the bullet?

The commentators were dumbfounded. The caster quickly shifted the camera to Liu Zilang.

Everyone stared at the tournament screen with bulging eyes.

The shiny silver level two helmet that was on Liu Zilang’s head earlier... had transformed into a black level three helmet.

“Whoa!” The live audience gave out a collective cry of surprise.

What kind of magic trick is that?

Ruo Feng who was on the commentary platform was shaken. He seemed to have remembered something.

At the same time, Lord Rong who was next to him gave a similar reaction!

Both of them cried out at the same time, “It’s the level three helmet from the airdrop crate!”

Su Changming slapped his head as he heard them. “Aha, how did I forget about that?”

“It’s not just you, I forgot about it too.”

“Well, looks like it’s not Vic’s time to die yet. He equipped the level three helmet just in time.”

“If he had done it later by even just a split second, there would be another crate next to the airdrop now!”

“...”

In the match, Liu Zilang had the shock of his life because of the sudden shot.

In a flash, he located the source of the gunshot. Then, he hid behind the airdrop crate, moving as fast as lightning.

‘What the f*ck?’

On the rooftop of the puzzle building, Drainys saw through his 8x scope that his target had a sudden change of headgear.

He looked away from his computer screen and rubbed his eyes.

‘Have I been taking enough nutritional supplements lately?

‘Should I get my eyes checked?’

Another possibility surfaced in his mind. That was, the airdrop crate had a level three helmet, and his opponent had put it on at that exact moment.

Drainys turned speechless when he thought of it!

‘How the f*ck is that even possible?

‘How about you just let me kill you without any fuss?

‘Calm down, calm down!’

Drainys inhaled deeply to soothe his nerves.

‘You have a level three helmet. I have a level three helmet too!

‘It’s all fine!’

Indeed, Drainys had picked up a level three helmet at the puzzle buildings.

Wielding a Kar98K and being at full health while facing Liu Zilang, he had a superior advantage in every objective sense of the word.

Meanwhile, Liu Zilang who had just escaped death was hiding behind the airdrop crate. He expended a first aid kit to bring up his health level and then gulped down an energy drink to charge his boost meter.

With the flick of his right hand, his noise-suppressed M24 slid into his hands. He scoped in to see his opponent taking cover behind a wall.

Liu Zilang noticed the level three helmet on his head, and he knew that he would not be able to kill his opponent in one shot.

The two players went into a standoff; both of them traded bullets but no blood was seen.

It went on for a while...

Lord Rong and Su Changming looked at each other, and they saw the frustration in each other’s eyes.

“Ahem...” Lord Rong coughed. He carefully picked his next few words, “I think Drainys’ gun skills... well, how do I put it... he does indeed have very fast reflexes, but, well...”

“He can’t hit his target,” Su Changming continued while smiling, “It’s a common occurrence to encounter players like these in typical matches. Sometimes when you watch snipers duel, you see them swap out their snipers and then shoot from their hips. It looks fast and really cool, but whether they can hit their target is up to fate. There’s no skill involved in it.”

“Heheh, it’s such a pain to duel with such players with snipers.”

Ruo Feng rubbed his big nose and said, “I don’t think it really matters if they hit each other. Both of them are wearing level three helmets. If they can’t kill one another in one shot, there won’t be an end to this.”

“What Captain Feng said makes sense too. No matter if Vic or Drainys hit each other, they can simply abort shooting and commence healing. Then, the fight will just continue after that.”

“What if one of their level three helmet gets destroyed?” Su Changming asked.

“Then there won’t be any more fight.” Lord Rong shrugged.

“...” Su Changming was speechless. After thinking about the matter for a bit, he realized that what Lord Rong had said somewhat made sense.

Whoever had their helmet destroyed first meant, it meant that the sniper battle was about to come to an end.

Under the caster’s camera, Liu Zilang abruptly removed the 8x scope on his M24 and attached it to the AKM in his hands.

???

The live audience members and live stream viewers were full of question marks when they saw this unexpected scene.

What kind of operation was it? To not use an M24 but an AKM.

Was he worried about hurting his opponent too much?

Indeed!

Liu Zilang was worried that the damage output of the M24 was too high.

He suddenly aimed at the wall and tap-fired several shots.

Swish swish swish!

Drainys noticed that the gunshots were different. He thought Liu Zilang was under an ambush and had to swap guns. Hence, he exposed himself in an attempt to score an easy kill.

Just he peeked his head out from the rooftop, a bullet grazed past his right arm.

Sh*t!

Drainys quickly retreated and cursed in his heart. He considered himself lucky that the bullet was not from a sniper, and the bullet had only hit his limbs. Its damage was insignificant enough that he did not even need to apply a bandage.

He was unhappy that a stray bullet had hit him.

Picking up his Kar98K, he resurfaced to return fire at Liu Zilang.

However, as he tilted his head, he heard a slight puff come from afar.

Without warning...

Drainys’s view was lifted high into the air.

“4AM-Vic killed Navi-Drainys by headshot with M24!”

5 Kills!
