Chapter 658 - Cleanse My Broken Body, O Great Flames!

Chapter 658: Cleanse My Broken Body, O Great Flames!

In a post-match interview, the rifler from team Faze, Mxey, and a renowned Youtuber, Kinguin, recollected the events that had happened on that fateful day.

It was a bright sunny afternoon. The two of them were basking in the warm sun next to a walking tractor. Suddenly, an intruder was seen entering the field with a Mirado.

“The thought of killing him never crossed our minds.”

“We only wanted to tell him, stay out of our territory.”

Throughout the entire interview, the two people repeated those two sentences over and over. Despite their indignation, there were hints of a hidden trauma in their tone of voice.

Rewinding to the match...

The two people who had ducked had lost some health due to the impact of the Mirado, and they had been pushed into a space under the tractor.

The next moment...

Mxey and Kinguin realized that they were totally f*cked!

Meanwhile, Liu Zilang had already hopped out of the car before it came to a stop. He swiftly pulled out his M16 that was slung on his back!

‘Come at me bro, if you are men!’

Liu Zilang was prepared to ‘unleash the dragon’, but he was suddenly dumbfounded.

‘What the f*ck?

‘Where’s everyone?’

He carefully looked to his left and right, wielding his M16 as he was prepared to shoot at any time. Finally, he spotted the two people who were stuck in between the tractor and the Mirado.

Liu Zilang: ...

‘Are you guys OK in there?’ was what he wanted to ask after being stunned speechless for a long while. However, when he saw the two people were struggling with all their might and with desperation all over their faces...

He realized that it would be a silly question to ask.

‘How could they be OK?’

At the same time, many people in the live audience and the live-stream burst out laughing uncontrollably when they saw the unexpected scene.

“LOLOL! What kind of technique is this?”

“Bro, have a drink on me. That has got to be the coolest drift ever!”

“Bahaha! This time, the two people there are shut-ins!”

“Shut-ins LOLOL”

“...”

In the match, Liu Zilang was tempted to pull out his mobile phone to search for how he could inflict death on the two people who were under his car without harming the vehicle.

‘I need an answer, quick!’

However, once he took a look into his backpack, he knew precisely what he had to do.

The next moment, a Molotov Cocktail appeared in his hands.

Thunk!

The cork was pulled.

The two people stuck underneath tried to look upward to see what was happening...

In an instant...

Both of them had their eyes wide open in despair!

‘What... what do you want?’

‘Stop! Don’t come any closer!’

‘I’ll scream!’

Tut tut tut~!

Tatatat~!

Amid the panic, the two people reflexively sprayed their guns. However, they could not even move because they were stuck, much less aim at their target.

“Partner! You’re shooting at my butt!”

“Sorry! Sorry! I can’t control myself!”

“...”

Liu Zilang, Molotov Cocktail in hand, noticed that the two people had ‘self-destructive tendencies’. He immediately threw the Molotov Cocktail at them...

‘Let these flames cleanse you!’

Bang!

Whoosh!

The Molotov Cocktail shattered upon impact, and flames immediately spread across the area.

Under normal circumstances, Molotov Cocktails of the current game patch were not fatal. That was because humans instinctively ran away from fire and did not stay inside it.

However, the two people could not even move, much less run away.

They could only let the raging fire consume them and eat away at their health levels.

In the end, the two people finally gave up struggling. This was because they had been quietly transformed into loot crates.

“4AM-Vic killed Faze-Mxey with Molotov Cocktail!”

“4AM-Vic killed Kinguin with Molotov Cocktail!”

The spectators in the live audience and live-stream channels fell silent...

“How cruel... is Vic the leader of the FFF Inquisition?”[1]

“But the problem is, Mxey and Kinguin are both guys! Even if they were doing something under the tractor, it doesn’t go against their oath at all!”

“You do have a point, then there can only be one truth!”

“Hm... It can’t be! Vic is actually this kind of person!”

“...”

In the match, Liu Zilang did not know that his kind gesture of releasing his opponents from mortal suffering had been interpreted in a different way by the viewers of the Chinese live-stream channels.

He saw the two crates that were stuck in the middle and felt a craving.

It was against the laws of nature to ignore crates.

He took another careful look at his surroundings. After confirming that no one was able to hit him at his location, he swiftly shifted the car away. Then, he crawled under the walking tractor and had a feast.

In the competitors’ spectator area below the stage, Misaka Mikoto could only watch Liu Zilang with envy and admiration.

‘If I was still alive, I’d be having that feast together with Shifu.’

“Oh well!” She sighed.

At the same time, she made a mental note to herself,

‘One impulsive minute leads to one hour of spectating.

‘Next time, I’ll stay behind Shifu!’

...

After looting the crates, Liu Zilang was a law-abiding citizen.

One reason for this was that he only had three bullets left in his AWM, and there was nowhere for to stock up on Magnum bullets. He had to conserve them for later.

The other reason for this was that the fourth circle was shrinking. It was the most turbulent period in the game.

Liu Zilang would not have been that conservative if it was a typical competitive match. Despite being alone, he could accurately discern his opponents’ strategies based on the terrain and the location of the safe zone.

However, in the charity exhibition match, everyone was playing recklessly, and they did not have any sort of strategy.

Kill notifications on the upper right corner of his screen never stopped appearing.

Under such circumstances, Liu Zilang was not able to rely on his previous competitive experience to predict the flow of people. With that being said, he could not predict the best path to enter the safe zone as well.

He could only play passively behind the tractor and wait for the turbulence to calm down before planning his next move.

...

The countdown timer of the fifth circle hit zero and the radioactive blue web that covered more than half of Miramar began to spread out once again. Finally, gunfire ceased on the battlefield.

After a short while...

The radioactive blue circle coincided with the boundary of the safe zone.

A new circle appeared.

Liu Zilang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the new circle.

‘Finally, I’m not God-forsaken!’

Liu Zilang was not in the safe zone, but he only needed to move eastward a little.

The only thing left to ponder about was where he should hide after entering the safe zone.

The hiding spots nearest to him in the safe zone were a two-storied long rectangular building and a place among cylindrical haystacks in a wheat field.

After pondering for one second...

Liu Zilang decided to head toward the haystacks.

It would have been fine if it were a single-storied house. However, the two-storied rectangular building had four doors on each floor. It would have been too difficult for him to control all the entrances.

The haystacks were different. Their size and the surrounding cover they provided seemed to be tailored fit.

However, as he approached the haystacks, he realized that he had been naive...
