Chapter 724 - A Bolt to the Throat!
Chapter 724: A Bolt to the Throat!
Vroom vroom vroom~!
As the powerful engine of the buggy roared, the distance between the two players reduced little by little!
“Vic is still shooting? Quick, run away!”
“That f*cker is too reckless! Even if he manages to kill the buggy’s driver, he’ll still be run over!”
“Too late! It’s over!”
Splat splat!
Bullets pierced through a body and blood splashed!
“4AM-Vic killed Savage-Timid with M16A4!”
Liu Zilang had an advantage over the person sitting in the backseat of the buggy. His gun was of course much faster and more stable!
After killing the person in the backseat, the buggy was nonetheless right up his face. Timid had settled for a kamikaze attack.
‘Even if I die, my vehicle will avenge me!’
On the brink of death!
There was no chance for Liu Zilang to dodge to the side.
The hearts of countless live stream viewers were up their own throats.
Liu Zilang took a step back toward the railing of the bridge. Like a monkey climbing a tree, he propped himself up with both hands over the railing. He was going to jump into the sea at any time…
‘Is he suicidal?’
Everyone’s eyes bulged when they saw what happened next!
The next moment, a loud clank was heard!
The unmanned buggy rammed into the railing beneath Liu Zilang’s feet and rebounded backward.
At the same time, Liu Zilang canceled his actions, and his feet were on solid ground once more.
He neatly avoided the collision from the buggy by climbing up the railing!
Hiss!
Everyone was shocked when they saw the incredibly perilous scene!
Even the two Western commentators’ jaws dropped. Incredulity was written all over their faces!
‘What’s in that person’s brain?’ They wanted to know. ‘How can he always come up with something that turns the tides of battle in the nick of time?”
On Hua Xia’s commentary platform.
“That’s Vic for you! Endless creativity and possibilities, the perfect blend of recklessness and flamboyance!” Lord Rong exclaimed while clapping his hands.
Ruo Feng coughed after hearing Lord Rong’s words. “Ahem… well… I think the correct adjective here is ‘unorthodox’.”
“Wait a second! The small yellow car is heading his way too!”
“Oh my god! A second collision!”
“What’s Vic going to do now? Is he going to repeat his actions?”
As the commentary cried out in surprise!
Drainys drove the small yellow car like a mad bull and rammed into the rear of the buggy that was in front of Liu Zilang.
In a flash!
The buggy sprung forward toward Liu Zilang as if it had been attacked by ‘A Thousand Years of Death’.
This time, Liu Zilang did not climb up the railing.
While the buggy was still heading his way, he sidestepped and hopped into the buggy’s driver seat, dodging another collision in the nick of time yet again!
Drainys was shocked when he saw this!
He had not expected Liu Zilang to get into the vehicle to avoid the collision.
Drainys immediately swapped over to the passenger seat. He stuck his body out of the window of the car and aimed his gun at Liu Zilang!
“Oh no! Drainys is going to shoot him from inside the car!”
“Oh my god, he has extremely fast reflexes too!”
The commentary platform was yelling when everything stopped abruptly!
Liu Zilang was faster in swapping over to the buggy’s back seat. He dodged the volley of bullets that were aimed at him. At the same time, he pulled out the crossbow that was slung to his back!
Right then, the buggy’s rear was firmly stuck to the small yellow car’s hood. The two people were positioned right next to each other.
By the time Liu Zilang lifted his crossbow to aim at the head that had peeked out from the window of a passenger seat, the tip of the crossbow bolt was already in Drainys’s mouth.
Mmmm!
Drainys panicked, and his eyes bulged out of his sockets!
Thwack!
Before he could retreat into the car, the sound of a released bowstring rang amid the battlefield that was full of gunpowder!
A crossbow bolt shot forth and exited the back of Drainys’s throat!
“4AM-Vic killed Avangar-Drainys by headshot with crossbow!”
4 Kills!
Liu Zilang had already lost more than half his health. He let out a long sigh of relief after he had eliminated his opponent!
He raised an eyebrow and whistled casually as he looked at Drainys’s corpse, it was still hanging from the window of the car. Not to mention, the tip of a crossbow bolt was sticking out of it.
There was nothing in the game that could not be solved by shooting a crossbow bolt through it.
If there was, then a second crossbow bolt might have been necessary.
The caster cut to a player cam on Liu Zilang.
Everyone thought that he would be pressing onto his chest while panting for air after having just escaped from the brink of death. They had not expected him to behave so flippantly!
“Bahaha! Classic Vic, he never learns from his lessons!”
“Look at that b*tch face! A knuckle sandwich can probably fix that.”
“Never ever let Vic know about this! That b*stard is most happy when he sees that y’all want to beat him up but can’t.”
“Pah! What a shameless fella!”
“By the way, I didn’t know the crossbow was so strong! Don’t tell me Vic is planning to win the chicken dinner with the crossbow?”
“It’s just the second circle! Please stop fantasizing.”
“…”
In any case, after eliminating the two players at the east bridge of Sosnovka Island, Liu Zilang was the self-proclaimed ‘head’ of Sosnovka Island for the match.
That was because he was the only survivor among the eight people who landed at Sosnovka Military Base in the match.
There was another player, though, who had landed at Novorepnoye. He was observing the battle from afar at the crossroads near the east bridge.
He saw that the final survivor was Liu Zilang and trembled.
He quickly turned around at the crossroads and headed toward the beach.
It was obvious that he had the intention of finding a boat.
He wanted to avoud Liu Zilang but did not know that Liu Zilang already had his sights on him.
Liu Zilang was the first to arrive at the end of the bridge. It was not difficult for him to spot someone parking a car near the residential area at the crossroads.
If it were not for the buggy and yellow car which had caught up to him so fast, he would have taken the liberty to intrude upon that person.
Liu Zilang had just finished looting the two crates when he saw that person trying to sneak away. That person was evidently headed toward the beach and wanted to escape by sea. He hopped onto the small yellow car, slammed the gas pedal, and dashed straight toward there.
“Oh! There’s someone under the bridge next to the river!”
“Wait! That person looks familiar!”
“It’s Aluka from 4AM!”
Just as the commentators finished speaking, the bullet screen of the live stream channel exploded with activity.
What was it if not fate!
Except for the squad tournament, 4AM’s internal conflict had provided additional entertainment for the spectators in all the other matches.
The question was, who would prevail in the fight between Liu Zilang and Aluka, the King of Fighters? [1]
…
[1] This nickname came about during a live-stream session when Vic, freshly ashore from swimming across a river, forgot to arm his gun and punched at thin air, thus he got himself killed.
