Chapter 24: A Shot Through the Clouds!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

With Shen Zeyan mentioned, Zhang Xiaotong’s live stream had suddenly burst out with discussions.

A majority of people think Liu Zilang and Shen Zeyan were incomparable. After all, there were differences between professional players and casual players. However, a small number of people felt that a masterful player could be among the people, and Liu Zilang was not necessarily any worse than Shen Zeyan.

Naturally, this kind of debate would not be seeing a conclusion anytime soon, considering the live stream was about to get rowdy. Fortunately, Zhang Xiaotong managed to look at the chat screen in time and said, “let’s not quarrel, everyone. I think the great guru is quite skilled. Let’s just see if he will be able to get me a chicken dinner tonight!”

Her speech was initially intended to pacify the atmosphere of the live stream. However, never would she have thought that once she had said that, the mood of the live stream suddenly changed.

“Get Xiaotong-chan a chicken dinner?”

“Uhh... Fine weather today.”

“I believe this can’t even form the standard!”

“That’s right! Getting Xiaotong-chan a chicken dinner? Even the great guru Shen Zeyan might not be able to do that!

“What are you guys talking about, if it’s the great guru Shen Zeyan, I think he would probably... be able to?”

“Hahaha.”

“...”

Zhang Xiaotong took the time and looked at the chat screen, immediately she groaned.

...

Moreover, in the game.

After killing the team of mediocre players in the prison, Liu Zilang and Zhang Xiaotong rushed downstairs.

There were two crates, one for each of them.

Liu Zilang returned the 98k to Zhang Xiaotong and went to loot the M16 that had less than thirty bullets left. Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaotong happily looted a Level Two Helmet, as well as a Level Two Backpack which its remaining durability had already turned red.

Seeing that the second circle had been refreshed, Liu Zilang, deciding not to stay here any longer, urged her to hurry up and get in the car.

Bringing out the map and looking at it, the safe zone had almost completely been refreshed to the airport. Throughout the entire map, only the east and west bridgeheads remained in the circle.

Without a doubt, someone would definitely be blocking the bridges under these circumstances.

To cross the bridge with solely Liu Zilang and Zhang Xiaotong’s equipment alone, they probably wouldn’t be able to make it pass the ‘tolls’.

However, just as they were driving all the way from the prison to nearby town of Mylta in an attempt carry out a quick search with whatever time they had left, the sound of an airplane could be heard overhead.

The next moment, Zhang Xiaotong, who was sitting in the third seat, stuck her head out of the vehicle window, aiming at the sky with her 98k.

“Uh... What are you doing?’ Liu Zilang curiously asked.

“Shhh... Watch me shoot down the airdrop!” Zhang Xiaotong whispered.

‘What? The game has this kind of settings too?’

Liu Zilang, who had only touched the game for half a day or so, was instantly intimidated by Zhang Xiaotong’s words.

He knew that the airdrops were carrying some good stuff!

‘Boom!’

With the sound of a gunshot, Zhang Xiaotong pulled the trigger!

Liu Zilang, who was in the driver’s seat at the front, turned his head to look up, gasping in surprise, leaving his mouth ajar.

At the time the gun was fired, the roaring aircraft overhead suddenly threw something in midair.

‘If there’s been no mistake, that’s an airdrop with parachutes!’

“Hahaha! It’s a hit! I’ve shot down the airdrop!”

From her voice, Zhang Xiaotong seemed overjoyed. Her tone sounded both excited and pleased.

“Wow! That’s awesome!” Liu Zilang stared at the airdrop that was slowly landing above the head with the same joyful expression; praises of admiration escaped his lips.

At the same time, the viewers in the live stream were also spamming the screen with banters.

“66666!”

“This streamer is f*cking awesome! F*cking awesome!”

“Isn’t this Xiaotong-chan’s live stream ‘A shot through the clouds’?”

“Regardless of the angle, timing or the relative velocity of the plane and the car, the accuracy of that shot was absolutely precise!”

“How does Xiaotong’s shot compare with that of great guru Shen Zeyan?”

“I think they’re... equally matched.”

“They’re neck and neck!”

“...”

“Fellow brothers, by the way, can a 98k really shoot down an airdrop?”

“Emmmm”

“There is an honest man here. Everyone, hurry up and bully him!”

“...”

...

Under the unbounded sky, the sun shone brightly.

Driving while feeling the sea breeze and looking at the airdrop atop slowly drifting down, it was as if they were seeing a dream within their reach.

Comfort, freedom, relaxation.

Such a beautiful life!

‘Bang. Bang. Bang’

Just at that moment, a hail of gunfire sounded.

Sparks scattered off the side of the blue car that was driven by Liu Zilang and Zhang Xiaotong. Liu Zilang’s body was even splattered with blood.

‘Screech screech screech!’

Liu Zilang drifted to an emergency halt, and a series of screeches made by tires coming in contact with the grass could be heard.

“Get out of the car!”

As soon as the car stopped, Liu Zilang said to Zhang Xiaotong.

“Oh oh!” Zhang Xiaotong nodded hurriedly and jumped out of the car.

They held their heads and squatted behind the blue car, briefly looking at each other confused.

“What’s the situation?” Zhang Xiaotong asked carefully.

“Uhm... I seemed to have driven to the bridgehead.” Liu Zilang was a bit shocked.

“Ah! Why did you drive so recklessly!” Zhang Xiaotong said angrily.

“The airdrop is here.” Liu Zilang hurriedly said.

“Huh? That... Then it seems like there’s not much we can do.” Zhang Xiaotong said helplessly.

Clearly, she was determined to obtain the airdrop she had ‘shot down’ herself.

However, the current predicament was that the two were pinned behind a small car by the opponent at the bridgehead, unable to make a move.

At that moment, a ‘boom’ sounded in their ears.

A large crate of red and blue had fallen to the coast not far from the front of the car with a parachute. Subsequently, it was slowly emitting a thick, red smoke.

Seeing the airdrop in front of her, Zhang Xiaotong could not help but lick her lips.

The next moment, she, who was crouching behind the car, suddenly lied down.

“What do you think you are doing?” Liu Zilang opened his eyes. “You can’t be thinking of crawling over, right?”

Zhang Xiaotong did not answer, instead, she hesitantly shifted forward.

‘Safe!’

She gleefully shifted forward again.

‘Still no response from the opponents!’

‘Haha!’

She was overjoyed. Whimpering, she made her way toward the airdrop on the beach.

Liu Zilang looked at the opponents at the bridgehead. Looking back at Zhang Xiaotong, his mind was puzzled.

‘At that distance, the coast was a sandy beach with practically no shelter at all.’

‘The opponents would not be able to overlook it.’

‘Could it be that the opponents were not looking here at that moment?’

With that speculation, Liu Zilang took the opportunity to take another glimpse. Just as he was trying to sneak in the car, an unexpected yet familiar gunfire rang out from the bridgehead.

The next moment, numerous bullets rained down and landed beside Zhang Xiaotong who was crawling on the beach, like raindrops pattering ceaselessly on banana leaves.

While creating a pit of ten thousand holes, two shots also hit Zhang Xiaotong at the same time.

‘Oh no!’

Zhang Xiaotong exclaimed and, like a frightened rabbit, she got up and immediately ran!

However, just when she was approaching the back of the airdrop, she was hit by the opponent’s ‘spray and pray’ tactic. Zhang Xiaotong was immediately knocked down to the ground.

Fortunately, she was relatively close to the airdrop. She then quickly crawled and hid behind the crate. Thereafter, she looked at Liu Zilang, who was hiding behind the car, with a pair of teary eyes.
