Chapter 670 - No Grenades Beats Grenades!
Chapter 670: No Grenades Beats Grenades!
Vroom vroom vroom!
Amidst the aggressive sounds of an engine, a small yellow car came into view. It wobbled as it drove on the road, and there was a long trail of black smoke behind it.
The people in the car were Jembty from team Faze, and the renowned Twitch streamer DrDisrespect.
They had borne the same sentiments as Liu Zilang when they decided to jump at Primorsk; they had unfortunately landed in the middle of a grand melee.
When the first safe zone appeared, DrDisrespect found a small yellow car parked next to the road north of town. He had beckoned to Jembty to get on it.
DrDisrespect was still unreconciled with Liu Zilang’s “C-style grenade throw” which caused his defeat and had brought him shame in the previous match!
‘F*ck!’
‘We cannot die in this match!’
“Sh*t, the car is catching fire! The people behind us are still hot on our heels.”
“Don’t worry, I’m on the wheel!”
“Quick! Let’s drive to the beach and get a boat.”
“Hmph, those b*stards! I’ll show them later. And that b*stard Vic too!”
While DrDisrespect was still cursing, a black dot appeared in front of the car from an unknown direction.
‘What’s that?’
Both DrDisrespect and Jembty who were in the car were taken aback upon seeing the unknown object.
Boom!
After some slight noise, DrDisrespect and Jembty’s field of vision were covered in a field of snowy white. Moreover, their eardrums pounded as a buzzing noise filled their ears.
Three problems, or rather questions, appeared in their heads.
‘Who am I?’
‘Where am I?’
‘WHO THE F*CK THREW THAT STUN GRENADE!!!”
However, they were immediately faced with a fourth and more pressing problem; the gunfire that was coming from behind them had not yet stopped. Hence, they could not stop driving!
With their vision temporarily out of commission, how were they supposed to navigate their way to the beach?”
“To the left! Slight left! I remember that there are two warehouses in front of us!”
“Right, right! I remember now! We’ll just go through between them?”
“Don’t worry, they won’t hit us once we reach the beach!”
“Ah, I remember now! There’s a tr-”
Before Jembty could finish his sentence, the front of the car hit something with a bang. His body flew forward in his seat.
DrDisrespect who was in the driver’s seat was also given a huge shock!
In a flash, before the two people could react, the durability of the yellow car that was already low dropped to zero!
With a loud boom, the car exploded and a ball of fire swiftly expanded!
The shockwave that spread outward from the car threw the two passengers into the air!
“DrDisrespect killed himself with vehicle explosion!”
“DrDisrespect killed Faze-Jembty with vehicle explosion!”
In a flash, the number of crates under the ‘burial tree’ since the beginning of the match increased by two.
Looking at the tree in front of their car from their black-and-white death screens, Jembty and DrDisrespect’s eyes were sluggish. Deep within them, they felt like crap!
‘Wait… that stun grenade!’
They suddenly remembered the stun grenade that had appeared out of nowhere!
“Oh, sh*t! This is a case of murder! Murder!” DrDisrespect yelled out hysterically.
“I know. Cool down, partner… I believe everybody knows!” Jembty could only shrug helplessly. There was a lot he had to say about his teammate driving into a tree, but those words remained unspoken.
Moments before the car accident, the live audience members and stream viewers saw Liu Zilang throw something from behind the warehouse door.
They were shocked!
They remembered Liu Zilang’s nickname, and the first thought they had was that he had thrown a frag grenade.
However, only after the grenade had exploded, and DirDisrespect and Jembty who were in the car lost their ability to see, only then did they realize that it was a stun grenade.
A stun grenade?
Questions popped up in their heads again…
The answer was finally revealed when the wobbling yellow car slammed into the tree and exploded in a bright red ball of flames!
Everyone finally understood Liu Zilang’s initial plan, and the bullet screens of the Chinese live-stream channels exploded with activity.
“F*ck! That was such a cunning move!”
“! I submit! I didn’t know you can kill with stun grenades this way!”
“Bahaha, I think DrDisrespect and Jembty will have the urge to murder someone with a knife after they watch the replay!”
“…”
It was not only the Chinese live stream viewers. The live Western audience members were at first stunned by the move. However, after they had regained their senses, they broke out laughing!
That Vic is such a prankster!
The Western audience had been exposed to whole new sights throughout the past two days of the tournament.
They finally understood that PUBG was not merely an FPS but rather a game that blended “survival and gun skills” together…
While the live audience members and stream viewers were still discussing about it, Misaka Mikoto in the match was stunned.
She had just looked away when Liu Zilang abruptly threw something out of the door.
She first heard a bang!
Then, a boom!
Two kill notifications appeared on the top right corner of the screen.
From start to finish, Misaka Mikoto was in a state of cluelessness.
She gulped. “Shifu… what happened… just now?” She asked timidly.
Liu Zilang was still observing what was happening outside. He answered with a smile, “Nothing much. Pigs just ran into a tree.”
‘Pigs running into trees?’
Literally or metaphorically? Misaka Mikoto scratched her head, trying to decipher her master’s words.
However, that was not the main point.
The main point was that the people who were giving chase to DrDisrespect’s car from Primorsk’s town center saw that his car had exploded, and they looked at each other in surprise.
Without God’s perspective, even Misaka Mikoto who was near the accident site did not know what had happened, what more those people who were still so far away.
“Excuse me? What’s the situation?” One asked.
“Um… I think they mishandled the car and ran into a tree,” another answered.
“Pft! Are those people here for entertainment value?” The first laughed.
“I guess? I saw DrDisrespect in the kill notification. Isn’t he known for his funny antics in the game?” the second guessed.
“He stayed true to his profession! Not forgetting to entertain the audience in a tournament!” The first player had a sudden admiration for him.
“…”
No matter what the cause, since they had witnessed the accident, they had no reason to ignore the two new crates under the tree.
After a while…
Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto who were behind the warehouse door saw two suspicious people cross the road as they ran toward the tree.
Seeing how the two people were fully focused on looting the crates, a smile appeared on Liu Zilang’s face…
