Chapter 617 - A Meteor Streaks Across the Sky, The Harbinger of Chaos!
Chapter 617: A Meteor Streaks Across the Sky, The Harbinger of Chaos!
At the start of the match, TSM had fought with IG at Lipovka. After a bloodbath, only one player managed to escape the encounter.
That person was Aimpr. He was currently prone on the grassy slope, less than five meters away from Li Muqiu.
The only reason why he was able to be at that location without being detected despite having Li Muqiu next to him, was because his journey thus far had been tougher than Li Muqiu’s.
After escaping from Lipovka, Aimpr found himself in a rural area and decided to roam around there. However, he had just begun to climb up the stairs of a residential building when he heard the sound of a car coming from outside.
To avoid alerting the sudden visitors, he could only jump from the balcony and abandon the buggy that had been his faithful companion. He did not think that riding on the buggy would have allowed him to escape the enemy’s pursuit.
From then on, Aimpr traveled westward from Lipovka with his feet acting as a means of conveyance.
At least Li Muqiu had a motorcycle. Aimpr had to outrun the earlier two circles on foot.
Can you imagine how he felt? Running away from the rightmost town on the map while the sun set in his face. All the way until he reached School?
If there had been a dog along the way, he would have had the urge to ride on it.
Unfortunately, before he could find a dog to ride on, he happened to bump into Li Muqiu as he was entering the safe zone.
Rustle rustle rustle!
Rustle rustle rustle!
The gentle sound of skin rubbing against grass tickled the two’s eardrums.
In an instant, a thought formed in their minds…
‘There’s someone next to me on the slope!’
‘F*ck me!’ Li Muqiu was flustered.
He had been keeping his eye on SKK, and he had not noticed someone come up right beside him.
Now there was another problem…
What should he do?
He knew that the slope at the edge of the play area which SKK occupied was not more than a hundred meters away.
If he and this unknown neighbor picked a fight with each other, even if he could kill him and become the sole occupant of the slope, the four players of SKK would certainly hear the sound of their gunfire. They would not allow a lone wolf to survive under their watchful eyes.
In reality, even Aimpr was struggling with the same dilemma.
He had outrun the blue circle. However, to guard himself against SKK, he hastily found a reverse slope and threw himself behind it. He had not seen Li Muqiu at all.
Who would have expected that he would have ended up crawling toward someone else’s face?
After Aimpr used a first aid kit, his mind was full of apprehension.
To fight or not to fight, that was the big problem.
To the two lone wolves, no matter the outcome of the fight if they chose to do so, no matter who lived or died, the survivor would have to face the wrath of SKK.
On the other hand, it was impossible for them to not fight at such a distance.
They were only three meters away from each other. Who would have known when the other party would suddenly fire at you?
Li Muqiu and Aimpr were stuck like this for a long time, and they did not make any decisive decisions.
Seeing that the two players were not going to fight each other, the caster’s camera did not linger on them for too long. Instead, it swiftly cut to Liu Zilang who was on the metal tower next to Water Town.
What was Liu Zilang doing?
He was sniping.
Under normal circumstances, the caster would have spent at most a second on him and then move onto someone else.
It was clear that the current circumstances were not normal.
This was because Liu Zilang’s targets were SKK, the team that occupied the northern slope of Pochinki. They were seven to eight hundred meters away from him.
Through the first-person perspective, the caster could see the crystal clear image at the end of Liu Zilang’s 15x scope. However, the only thing in his sights was nothing but the clear blue sky!
Everyone was speechless when they saw this. Was he shooting the sky?
Bang!
The sound of a suppressed Kar98K rang out.
Unlike the M24 and AWM, the silencer equipped Kar98K still sounded crisp.
As the sniper bullet flew out of the gun’s muzzle, Liu Zilang’s sights shook violently for a moment.
In a flash, that sniper bullet flew past everyone’s heads, and across the hilly area like a meteor.
Truth be told, at such a distance, the players of SKK would not be able to hear the sniper even without its suppressor equipped.
At that time, they were asserting dominance over their territory mercilessly with heavy fire. They were not expecting this form of ‘divine intervention’.
Splat!
Without warning… blood spurt out from Karl who was in the midst of tap-firing with an SKS while half-crouching!
It was a hit!
Comments flooded the Chinese live-stream channels!
“F*ck! How did he f*cking hit?”
“Vic’s ultra-long distance sniping is so accurate it’s scary. I remember he even beat Guru G on the American server.”
“I remember that among the three luminaries of Asia’s snipers, Master Ze is the best at long-distance sniping? I wonder if this is his true disciple?”
“Haha, I think each generation surpasses the previous!”
“I’m sure SKK is confused. They’re bound to be hunting for the culprit now.”
“Only the 15x scope can provide such a clear view at this distance. Furthermore, Vic’s target is so confused. I think it’ll be hard for them to find the source of the shot.”
“Too bad. It would’ve been great if that shot earlier was a headshot.”
“Are you serious? A hit at that distance is good enough. Headshot at that distance? You’ll need an insane level of cooperation from the other party!”
“Mark my words! If Vic pulls off a headshot, I’ll live-stream myself breakdancing while on laxatives!”
“…”
On the “Eiffel Tower” next to Water Town.
After firing that shot, Liu Zilang did not scope out.
He held his left mouse button and slowly panned downward, his eyes were focused on the streaking meteor.
As for Aluka and Cpt who were beside him, one of them was silently observing the people near Water Town. This was a precaution in case their opponents had been alerted by the sound. The other one of them was wielding a noise-suppressed SKS and was tormenting the teams in the hilly area.
Liu Zilang’s eyebrows raised when he saw where the bullet had landed.
Ka-ta!
The bolt of the Kar98K was pulled and another sniper bullet was inserted into its chamber.
Liu Zilang squinted and then took a deep breath.
The next moment, he was seen aiming his crosshair at the head of someone on the high slope. He slowly moved his crosshair upward, like an executioner who was raising the blade of a guillotine…
Bang!
Another shot rang out and a sniper bullet streaked across the sky above the hills!
Evidently, the players of SKK were not standing on the spot for target practice. Following the trajectory of the bullet, no one was standing at the final destination of the bullet.
However, the earlier surprise attack by Liu Zilang had roused the players of SKK. They were moving about their spots, trying to find the source of the previous shot.
The next moment, just as the bullet was about to land, someone walked into place.
Splat!
Suddenly… the sound of a bullet shattering a helmet rang out!
On the tournament’s big screen, Billy was seen wielding an AK with a 4x scope. He suddenly tilted to one side, bent his knees, and knelt on the ground with a thump!
“4AM-Vic knocked out SKK-Billy by headshot with Kar98K!”
WHOA!
The live audience roared with excitement!
“Smokescreen! Throw smoke grenades and revive him!”
In the game, SKK swiftly came up with a plan. Satan and Vivian stepped in front of Billy and cautiously looked to their left and right.
On the other hand, Karl threw a smoke grenade. Smoke quickly spread around the area and enveloped the four players.
At the same time, Li Muqiu saw SKK descend into chaos.
He suddenly had an idea in his mind. Pulling out the pan that was stuck to his butt, he carefully crawled over toward the back of the slope.
