Chapter 736 - : The Full Gamut of Poses

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Sunset. Twin grain silos.

Men. Two men.

Each of them stood in front of a door.

“Where’s your vehicle?”

“Where’s your vehicle?”

“Mine was jacked.”

“Mine was jacked too.”

“What a coincidence.”

“Haha.”

The two of them continued standing in silence.

As they stood opposite each other like wooden statues, the sunset continued its descent beneath the horizon.

The next moment, gunfire erupted!

No one knew when the guns in their hands had been lifted.

Muzzles flashed!

Bullets whizzed across the air between them!

The two wooden doors beside them were quickly reduced to splinters as bullets tore through them. Bits of wood were sent flying.

Both of them swiftly retreated behind their respective doorways.

Meanwhile, the live audience and live stream viewers laughed out loud when the caster captured the scene of them realizing that their vehicles had been stolen!

One could attribute it to misfortune if only one of their vehicles were stolen, but since both of their vehicles were stolen one after the other, it was an extraordinarily unlucky day…

“Bahaha! Those two carjackers are geniuses!”

“I feel sorry for Vic and Guru Qiu. They’ve now become brothers in hardship!”

“If you ask me, both of them are already suffering from bad luck. How about they just put aside their differences for a while and run together to the safe zone?”

“…”

The last comment had guessed exactly what Liu Zilang was thinking at that moment.

He was willing to bury the hatchet with Li Muqiu. That was, of course, since he had taken advantage of Li Muqiu so many times throughout the tournament.

However, Li Muqiu had been thoroughly toyed with by Liu Zilang throughout the tournament. This was especially true during the duo exhibition tournament the day before as well as in the solo matches that day! He had terrible luck!

The chance for him to right the wrongs was never going to come again. How could he let go of his grudges so easily?

After Liu Zilang had retreated behind the door, he thought of sneaking away through the back door. However, he had not expected Li Muqiu to have kept an eye on the back door. He was suppressed by Li Muqiu who tap-fired with his SKS.

‘Since when did that fella become so petty?’ Liu Zilang grumbled in his heart.

‘It’s just two kills! We need to look at what is ahead of us! Let bygones be bygones.’

Of course, he had selectively forgotten many things. However, those things were all recorded in Li Muqiu’s little list.

After having failed another escape attempt, Liu Zilang sighed. ‘Looks like he’s not going to let me go…’

On the commentary platform.

“Heheh, Guru Qiu is keeping a close eye on Vic. He’s not going to let him get away so easily.”

“Yup. The main thing here is that there’s a vast patch of grassland between the silos and the safe zone. A vehicle might be able to make the journey easier. However, without one, they might become moving targets.”

“The distance is not too far but also not too near. It’s an awkward distance that you can’t traverse with a smokescreen. They’ll need to eliminate each other if they want to escape the blue circle safely.”

“The blue circle is going to shrink soon. They don’t have much time left. Oh, wait? Vic is throwing a smoke grenade toward the field!”

“He’s going to escape by using a smokescreen? Is it worth a try?”

“I… don’t think so? It’s too far to escape with smokescreens.”

Just when the viewers had their doubts, Liu Zilang ran into the smokescreen from the back door.

Li Muqiu smiled coolly when he saw this.

Without saying a word, he swapped the SKS in his hands for an AK. Then, sticking the barrel of the gun from behind the wall, he carpet-fired a spray of bullets at the smokescreen!

The line of fire was broken by the white smokescreen.

The sound of gunfire and bullets hitting the ground did not stop until his clip was emptied.

Of course, the silence was only temporary.

After a short while, the familiar sounds of gunfire resumed.

Li Muqiu, having loaded a fresh magazine of bullets into his gun, was filled with determination. It was as though he was going to tear the smokescreen into shreds.

At the same time, Liu Zilang dodged left and right within the smokescreen, displaying a keen sense of speed and control.

He had to do so. Once he stopped ‘snake-dancing’, he would be immediately shot to the ground.

The reason why Liu Zilang had laid a smokescreen and forced his way in was not to turn himself into a blind-fire practice target for his opponent.

Another smoke grenade appeared in his hand, and he tossed it toward the direction of the safe zone.

Pssht~!

The new smoke grenade ejected thick white smoke, and the smokescreen quickly became longer.

Then, Liu Zilang pulled out another smoke grenade.

This time, he threw the grenade with an overhead throw so that the grenade would fly farther into the distance.

Li Muqiu raised an eyebrow when he saw the ‘smoke corridor’ in front of him.

‘Going into the safe zone through a smokescreen?

‘I’d like to see how many smoke grenades you have!’

Both of his guns used 7.62mm bullets. He was not going to exhaust his supply of ammunition any time soon.

With three smoke grenades forming a long smoke corridor, Li Muqiu did not blindly fire into the smoke as before.

He deliberately slowed down his rate of fire as he pulled his crosshair to the far end of the smoke corridor, estimating Liu Zilang’s running speed as he hunted him down among the tufts of smoke.

Gunfire violently erupted in the field!

The situation seemed to be getting more and more intense.

However, the viewers did not seem anxious or excited at all. Instead, they were dumbfoundedly looking at the screen.

From God’s perspective on the caster’s camera, everyone could see that after Liu Zilang had lobbed the third smoke grenade from within the smokescreen, he did not continue making his southward journey. Instead, he laid prone on the ground while moving back toward the grain silos.

As he crawled out of the smokescreen, Li Muqiu’s full attention was on the smokescreen in front of him, anticipating with full concentration another smoke grenade from Liu Zilang.

He did not notice, nor did he expect his opponent to crawl behind him. Not to mention, for it to happen right under his watchful eyes.

The next moment, Liu Zilang reached the grain silos. He swiftly rose from his prone position and then swapped to his M16 before going around the other side of the grain silos.

The viewers immediately understood what he was trying to do!

Liu Zilang’s smoke corridor was only a diversion. He planned to attack from the back after all!

In the blink of an eye, he had gone around the grain silos.

Meanwhile, Li Muqiu was grumbling when he saw that his opponent was not lobbing any more smoke grenades.

He carelessly stole a glance behind him, as if guided by the hands of fate.

A person appeared in his field of vision.

‘That guy’!

This time, neither of them remained silent.

Tut tut tut!

Tatatat!

In a flash, both of them confronted each other directly.

Both of them were clear that taking a step elsewhere would mean stepping straight into their graves!

In the confrontation, Liu Zilang performed a dazzling display of movements!

Wielding a flashing M16…

He jumped and then fired, crouched and then fired, and then eventually laid prone on the ground and fired…

In conclusion, the full gamut of poses.

Li Muqiu ‘s armor was eventually worn out and he had to give in to Liu Zilang’s varied stances.

In the blink of an eye, the results were determined.

On the big screen of the tournament, Li Muqiu’s last bit of health was seen to be emptied by Liu Zilang. He fell to the ground after taking a final bullet.

At the same time, the blue radioactive web that surrounded the map started moving again after a thunderous shudder.

The match was entering its final stages.
