Chapter 534: Chapter 514: “The Lethality of an Ex”

At 8 o’clock on Sunday morning, Han Qing, the “King of the Track,” woke up on time, turned off his alarm, and got out of bed efficiently.

Today was another busy day.

Originally, during the season’s winter break, he should have been resting properly, winding down, and maintaining some fitness training.

But now, he’s inexplicably opened a side gig—being a game streamer on the Cloud Dream Live Broadcast Platform.

This was quite absurd.

As a top-level domestic racer in Daxia, Han Qing’s annual salary was only 500,000. It seemed not too bad, but considering that he was already ranked top 3 among domestic racers, it was somewhat low.

In Daxia, extreme sports that put your life on the line don’t seem to have particularly large-scale events. Consequently, it’s difficult to attract enough commercial sponsorship, so everyone doesn’t make a lot of money.

But during the winter break, he coincidentally bought a Cloud Dream’s Mirage console, participated in a “Night City Indiscriminate Death Race,” and after “merely” getting third place, his life took an unexpected turn—

All of a sudden, he was in the spotlight.

Even when he won the championship in the domestic top-level competition the previous year, he never received such attention!

The next morning, the well-known sports drink brand “Fierce Horse” had come to sponsor him.

That’s right, they didn’t look for the club to sponsor his real-life events.

Instead, they went to him personally, wanting to sponsor his bizarre events in the virtual game!

Although he can understand that Cloud Dream’s “Indiscriminate Death Race” does indeed have a much higher degree of attention than real-life events... it still felt somewhat sad...

Of course, sadness aside, money still needs to be made.

He immediately consulted his professional agent, who carefully studied the contract and then discovered... it’s possible!

Han Qing’s contract with the club was very detailed in terms of restrictions. However... they were all real-life restrictions!

When he signed the contract, Lincoln was only a freshman, and the virtual world was still an imaginary thing, without even a shadow of existence.

The club has no reason to prohibit its players from playing games!

So Han Qing signed, not only for personal sponsorship but also for a contract with the Cloud Dream Live Broadcast Platform as a streamer.

By the way, after deciding to become a streamer, he even specifically called the two players ranked higher than him to ask if they played Cloud Dream games.

Only after learning that both of them didn’t play, did he feel at ease and continued using the game ID “King of the Track.”

Otherwise, he would feel a bit guilty...

As for the personal sponsorship...

Just the sponsorship fees from “Fierce Horse Sports Drink” alone had already exceeded his annual salary as a professional racer.

It was quite... laughable and cryable.

After that, Han Qing’s emphasis on gaming and streaming immediately escalated, no longer playing games based solely on his preferences.

For casual games like “My World,” he probably wouldn’t even bother in the past, but now he would buy and play them to join in the excitement.

Of course, his primary focus was still on the competitions in Night City.

And today was the fourth “Indiscriminate Death Racing” competition. He—must win the championship!

Of course, before that, there were still many things to do.

The morning workout was still essential, or else there would be big trouble if his physical fitness was not up to par after the winter break.

After finishing his workout, he put on the headband, lay down comfortably on the soft sofa, and said the activation word for the headband—

“Give me the championship!”

*

In no time, a 15-meter-long, 5-meter-tall, and over 13-ton Tyrannosaurus Rex came into view.

Compared to those 30-meter-long super-size creatures, this Tyrannosaurus Rex was not too exaggerated in size. However, its attack was incredibly strong and its agility and lethality were astounding.

Even though it was surrounded and facing a rain-like barrage of attacks, it continued to charge from left to right, biting and killing one person after another.

Hank calmly got out of the car and said to the audience in the live broadcast room, “Watch me do something big for you! Just a heads up: remember to turn down the volume.”

He took the noise-cancelling earmuffs out of his backpack and put them on, holding the “Dinosaur Treasure” and quickly approaching the dinosaur.

At this moment, the audience did not take him seriously:

“What, just loud yelling? Who is he trying to impress?”

“Doesn’t everyone have a ‘Dinosaur Treasure’ these days? I thought it was some secret weapon!”

“Yelling loudly with other people is useful against giant dinosaurs but just one person? I doubt it’ll work.”

...

Amid these skeptical voices, Hank dashed to a closer position, opened his panel, and materialized an achievement item—

The “Bathing Girl Lamp.”

“Holy crap!” The audience was stunned.

However, adjusting the volume now was already too late!

Amidst the loud and chaotic hunting ground, nothing was lacking more than high-decibel noise. The moment the lamp was brought out, it was triggered.

The piercing scream and the burst of light appeared at the same time!

Wearing earmuffs and with his eyes tightly shut, Hank aimed at the Tyrannosaurus Rex’s position from memory and fired the Shock Bomb directly!

But neither he nor the audience in the live streaming room could see the actual effects of the Shock Bomb, as everything in front of them was a white blur.

After he fired, Hank grabbed the screaming lamp and hurled it away with all his strength.

Then he opened his eyes and quickly used the panel function to retrieve the lamp.

Hank’s movements were so quick that when the blinding light dissipated, people only had time to see the giant Tyrannosaurus Rex slowly toppling over.

Its weight of over 13 tons heavily crashed onto the ground, raising a cloud of dust as tall as a person. The players nearby felt the ground trembling incessantly.

Everyone stared in amazement at the scene.

“What the hell! Is the ‘Dinosaur Treasure’ this powerful?!”

“It’s not the Dinosaur Treasure that’s powerful, it’s clearly the Bathing Girl Lamp!”

“Is this the lethal power of a betrayed ex-partner? I love it!”

“No wonder he’s a guy who blew up his bathroom with his girlfriend and watched her butt!”

...

Players standing further away had a clearer view of what happened—

At the moment the lamp let out a powerful scream, the startled Tyrannosaurus Rex turned its head and looked straight down at Hank’s position.

And then the “Shock Bomb Ultra Edition” fired by Hank hit the dinosaur’s vulnerable little brain without deviating an inch, resulting in the incredible scene in front of everyone.

Under normal circumstances, the heads of large dinosaurs were usually much higher than the players’ viewpoint, and their weapons could only strike the sides. Due to their “insufficient firepower,” it was difficult to create such an effect.

So, when they suddenly faced this absurd situation where “one bullet could topple a dinosaur,” everyone was a little baffled.

Once they were able to think clearly, their first thought was: Should they also get a “Bathing Girl Lamp”?

This was just too powerful!!

Even players who had never bought an “Assassin’s Alliance” game before were tempted!
