Chapter 199: Chapter 196: Raging at Teammates
Time ticked away second by second, everyone maintained silence, whoever spoke up would become the next target.
The atmosphere was oppressively suffocating.
There were hardly any comments in the live stream, all eyes were fixated on the lethal hunt.
Dai Chunhua stared at Bi Fang, who was lying in the bushes, and at the continuously soaring live stream popularity, convinced that Bi Fang was Shark TV’s enemy for life.
Ever since upper management had Wang Weifeng look for Bi Fang, for reasons unknown, he was taken away without a word, thrown into detention for over half a month, eating nothing but radishes, salty vegetables, and big steamed buns, running in the morning, working on a sewing machine at noon, and stringing bracelets at night.
Wang Weifeng’s family connections were useless, not a single day less, a full twenty days locked up, only released yesterday to see his family.
Already unhappy with Wang Weifeng’s previous actions, the upper management was ready to demote him to middle management, but with this, he was demoted straight to the bottom of the company hierarchy, the very bottom where the next step down was cleaning the company’s toilets.
This whole ordeal scared Dai Chunhua from personally seeking out Bi Fang, always feeling like Bi Fang was a jinx, whoever touched him would be cursed, and it would even bring misfortune upon himself.
Would a normal live stream have all these complications?
Lu Wentao had never even seen a bear, let alone any prehistoric creatures.
F*ck my life, heaven wants me dead, an undeserved calamity indeed.
Dai Chunhua comforted himself silently, and just as he was thinking about his next move, a young man pushed the door open and came in. Dai Chunhua’s eyes lit up, and he said joyfully, “How did it go, when will the live stream be banned?”
As a supervisor who had just been promoted by employing some tactics, he was eager to show some results, and Bi Fang, the archenemy of Shark TV, was certainly under his close watch. He dared not confront him directly, but he could sneak in a few tricks, right?
Look at this live stream, not to mention the knives, guns even came out, and he hit someone on camera. If this doesn’t get banned, are we waiting for the New Year or what?
I, Dai Chunhua, will anonymously report it to the superiors!
Thinking he’d receive good news, Dai Chunhua was baffled by the young man’s expression: “Eh, what’s with that look on your face?”
The young man had a mournful face: “Reporting it is useless…”
Dai Chunhua’s breath hitched: “Why?”
The young man came over to Dai Chunhua and whispered a barrage of information. Dai Chunhua’s face went through a spectrum of expressions, with his short eyebrows twisting and bouncing, and his mouth going from a 45-degree upward tilt to a 45-degree downturn in a matter of seconds.
Red Light Body Shield, how to deal with it?
Online now, quite urgent.
After explaining the situation, the young man sighed as he looked at the stupefied Dai Chunhua, thinking why did he have to pick on Bi Fang? How long would this supervisor last?
Iron-clad Bi Fang, transient supervisors, what on earth is going on?
Ripples spread across the water as a pair of eyes gradually surfaced, quietly observing the darkness around.
Étienne heard his own heartbeat thumping fearfully. Since swimming to the center of the lake, he could distinctly feel something brushing against his ankle, cold and slimy, like a lurking venomous snake.
The small lake that didn’t seem too big from the sky suddenly felt vast and limitless, as if an ant had crept into the deep of night.
Before long, the sensation disappeared.
Étienne let out a breath, but in the next second, his body stiffened like frozen meat in an icebox, his breathing nearly stopped.
The cold sensation returned, this time at his neck!
He covered his mouth, forcefully restraining himself from making any noise.
As the cold sensation crept further up, just when Étienne could hardly resist the urge to flee, a goose’s head emerged from the water, a pair of little eyes gazing at Étienne, blinking.
Étienne suddenly relaxed, nearly choking on water—the thing that had touched him was just the goose’s neck!
“Amu, you almost scared me to death!”
He tapped on Amu’s head.
Bang!
The gunshot was deafening!
The icy lake water engulfed Étienne, his limbs losing control, his feet involuntarily treading water, and it took a good while before he resurfaced, desperately suppressing the urge to cough as water spilled from his mouth and nose, even thinking for a moment that he had blown Amu’s head off!
A gunshot, how could there be a gunshot, had they already encountered a poacher?
What’s the situation?
Not just Étienne, Legoff was equally puzzled. He clenched the rifle in his hands and cursed under his breath, that was the sound of a shotgun!
The enemy is on the right!
Without the need for Legoff’s reminder, another poacher also headed towards the direction of the gunshot.
The four of them had brought just three guns for this trip up the mountain: one shotgun, one small-caliber semi-automatic rifle, and one sniper rifle, the most commonly used and practical types for hunting. Each one of them had one; the sniper rifle was in Legoff’s own hands, while Fourth Brother, who had the shotgun, had just gone around to the right.
But he was the weakest in the four-man squad!
Luckily, there were no other sounds after the gunshot, so there should be no issue for the time being.
At this moment, the audience in the live-streaming room didn’t dare to breathe, and some even covered their ears, shocked at Bi Fang’s audacity to test the other side under the gun!
[Damn, that gunshot was so loud, my ears are nearly deaf!]
[That sound was f***ing loud, wasn’t it? So loud?]
[Old Fang, you’re too gutsy!]
Bi Fang brushed the dirt off his hands; the environment was too dark, and if the other side was careful to hide, they could not be detected at all. He could only throw a stone to test them, and this test indeed clarified their position.
In the darkness, a standing silhouette was moving quickly.
After firing the shot, Fourth Brother realized he’d been tricked. There were no suspicious targets in his field of vision, and the enemy had not launched an attack at the instant he fired, presumably a little trick to confirm the position.
Understanding this, Fourth Brother didn’t know whether to run or to stop moving and hide in the darkness. After hesitating, he decided to move, but the time he took to think was enough for Bi Fang to lock on him!
Bi Fang drew his bow, focusing on the moving shadow, aimed slightly to the right of the center, pulled the bowstring taut, and released!
A sharp whoosh filled the air, and the arrow cut through the night.
At about ten meters distance, the arrow hit the silhouette in a fraction of a second. The man cried out in pain, the intense agony causing his eyes to roll back as he reached out towards the direction from which the arrow had come and pulled the trigger.
Flames burst forth, the shotgun roared.
Each bullet would explode with countless tiny lead pellets, spewing out like a tide, leaving pits and holes in the soil and trees everywhere.
“Ah!”
A scream echoed.
Fourth Brother, enduring the pain, split his mouth wide as thick, warm blood flowed down the arrow shaft in torrents. This wasn’t a smooth and sharp carbon arrow but one of Bi Fang’s rough-made ones with a bone tip. Once hit, it created a hole difficult to heal, but Fourth Brother felt it was worth it.
Even though he was hit by an arrow, he had also hit the other side. His shotgun, called “Deer Shot,” was a large caliber with eight 8.38mm diameter lead pellets in each shell. One shot was a barrage, a hit to the body meaning a fatal wound!
Without even a scream, the other side must be dead, right?
Fourth Brother couldn’t help but laugh, but just as he started, a burst of swearing froze his smile completely on his face.
“F*** YOU, Sap, you bastard, are you trying to kill me?”
