Chapter 671 - You’re My Smartest Little Devil!
Chapter 671: You’re My Smartest Little Devil!
On the commentary platform.
The three commentators watched with glee as the two players in the match looted the contents of the crates like two piglets snorting in front of a food trough.
“How about that. The two Korean players of team ACE are having a feast!”
“Tsk tsk! I don’t think they know they’re going to be turned into roast suckling pigs any time now!”
“Speaking of that, I believe Vic’s ultimate goal was to eliminate the pursuers? Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had to go through so much trouble by throwing a stun grenade. He could have thrown a frag grenade or even shot at the car to score the kills.”
“Hm, it looks like the two players of ACE will not die in vain!”
“…”
In the game, Liu Zilang did not play any more tricks.
Instead, he and Misaka Mikoto flanked the two players and then killed them while they were still busy looting.
The two ACE players were not able to react in time as blood spurted from various parts of their bodies.
They fell to the ground immediately with their eyes wide open.
‘How is it possible that someone’s over there?’
‘Wait!’
‘Since when have they been waiting there? Why didn’t they open fire at the car earlier?’
Questions surfaced on their minds, trapping them in like lost children in a foggy forest.
Unfortunately for them, their questions served no purpose as they were dead.
…
After collecting an ‘express delivery’ under the tree, Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto had a complete makeover. Even though their equipment was not the best, it was good enough.
Throughout the whole scenario, the viewers in the live stream channels could only watch with their mouths agape. Why did they feel like Liu Zilang was playing an entirely different game?
In a typical match, excluding places that had more loot like Sosnovka Military Base, one had to go around the map for half of the match before they could be fully equipped.
In Liu Zilang’s case, he had nothing on him after touching down. However, he had somehow managed to scam and kidnap his way into opulence.
Not to mention, even his silly disciple had been affected by ‘trickle-down economics’, and she had become as equally prosperous…
“I’m putting it down in my notebook! It feels like the door to a new world has been opened!”
“Careful, we don’t want to start a trend here!”
“I’m not exaggerating, but the techniques used by that b*stard Vic… can’t be learned by anyone.”
“Yup, I think he’s the only one who can pull off such psychopathic moves.”
“Are you trying to hint at something?”
“Does it seem like I’m hinting at something? I think you’re looking down on my idol Vic!”
“…”
For a moment, the live stream viewers were exasperated by Liu Zilang’s tactics. All of them said that his tactics were way beyond what they were capable of!
Liu Zilang did not plan on staying put at the same place for long after looting the crates. Pulling off the same trick again meant disrespect toward his fellow competitors!
Hence, he brought Misaka Mikoto to the beach to look for a speedboat. However, they did not immediately leave the area.
Cackling with sinister glee, they traveled along the coastline of Primorsk and drove all the other speedboats onto the beach.
Afterward, when the other teams in Primorsk had planned to leave town, they reached the beach only to find boats stranded on the shore. For a while, they were speechless.
Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto left Primorsk by sea after sending themselves off with a round of ‘fireworks’. They were sure to look back at the place with fondness.
The first safe zone of the match was in the lower right corner of the map. It included Mylta Power on the mainland and Novorepnoye on Sosnovka Island.
Evidently, it included a small patch of the sea which was in the middle of the two areas as well.
Liu Zilang’s target was none other than that mysterious patch of sea that was between two bodies of land. Without being able to determine whether the circle would move toward the mainland or the island, the safest option was to stay in the middle and go nowhere.
From Primorsk, Liu Zilang took the scenic route toward the safe zone with Misaka Mikoto. When they ran out of fuel, they switched boats.
They passed under the two long bridges that connected Sosnovka Island to the mainland. Under the surprised eyes of the audience, Liu Zilang parked the boat in the middle of the sea, at the center of the safe zone, before he proceeded to bask in the sun.
When the circle refreshed, they would be able to enter the safe zone in the shortest amount of time, without being intercepted by anyone.
The reality of the situation proved that Liu Zilang had made a wise decision.
Five minutes later, when the blue circle coincided with the boundary of the safe zone, the circle did not refresh as how the commentators had predicted. The commentators had initially predicted that it would refresh near Novorepnoye on Sosnovka Island.
However, the circle refreshed northwards toward Mylta Power. The sea was still within the safe zone.
With that being said, there was once again no need for Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto to outrun the blue circle. They remained on their speedboat, watching fights unfold on the distant mainland.
Without anything to do, it was hard to keep oneself occupied.
Misaka Mikoto dove into the sea with a splash. She swam around the speedboat like a puppy before climbing back up onto the boat.
After repeating this five times, Misaka Mikoto finally could not take the boredom anymore. She asked timidly, “Shifu… Are we going to stay here forever?”
“Of course not, we’ll have to go ashore eventually.” Liu Zilang shook his head. “But it’s not the time yet. Are you bored?”
“No, no!” Misaka Mikoto refuted immediately.
“It’s normal to be bored. Now that you mention it, I’m feeling a little bored too,” Liu Zilang said as he looked up to the sky and mumbled, “It would be nice if an airdrop were to come now.”
In any case, he did not have the power of summoning.
An airdrop would not come even if he wanted there to be one.
Even if one were to come, he would not be able to do anything if the airplane did not fly past where he was in the sea.
Unexpectedly, Misaka Mikoto exclaimed, “Shifu… you mean that thing over there?”
‘What thing?
‘Over where?’
Liu Zilang looked toward the mark that Misaka Mikoto had placed on the map. Suddenly, he was dumbfounded!
In the sea, under a high cliff in the north, a red-and-blue object that was cube-shaped was seen resting amid a patch of rocks.
Liu Zilang suddenly became alert. He swapped over to the passenger seat of the boat and then scoped in to take a look!
What was it if was not an airdrop crate!
Evidently, the airdrop crate had landed long before Liu Zilang had arrived. It only emitted red smoke for 68 seconds, thus the smoke had dissipated long ago.
No matter what the crate contained, Liu Zilang would have missed it if Misaka Mikoto had not spotted it while paddling around the speedboat. He might not have spotted it even after they had made it to the shore.
Furthermore, the crate might have had its contents intact since it was so hard to find.
“Quick! Get on the boat!” He beckoned to Misaka Mikoto. “You’re my smartest little devil! I’ll give you first dibs on the crate!”
“Hehehe!” Misaka Mikoto was instantly filled with glee. She boarded the boat quickly with a splash.
As the two people drove toward the airdrop crate in their boat, a jeep was seen making its way southward from the Factory at Mylta Power.
Someone spoke in the jeep.
“Guru Long, are you sure that the airdrop crate landed here?”
