The incredible way of how Liu Zilang had won the chicken dinner shocked everyone!
For a while, everyone turned into stone...
The members of the live audience slowly regained their senses. They looked at the last man standing onstage with utter astonishment, wondering how he had pulled it off.
Especially since his health level had begun to fall rapidly due to circle damage, everyone could not understand how he managed to pull off such a turnabout.
The caster replayed the scene. Everyone became tense as they stared unblinkingly at the screen.
On the tournament screen, Liu Zilang was seen throwing a grenade in an arc toward Karl’s direction.
At the same time he swapped to his AWM, his health level fell at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.
70!
61!
52!
...
Meanwhile, the caster cut the camera to Karl and Shroud. Both their health levels were almost untouched. It looked like the chicken dinner was going to go to either one of them.
Then, Liu Zilang’s health bar turned red. There was no other conclusion for him other than to turn into a corpse!
However, the situation on the battlefield changed abruptly!
Boom!
Bang!
The grenade’s explosion and the gunshot nearly shattered everyone’s eardrums. They also caused both Karl and Shroud’s health levels to empty in an instant!
Usually, at such a time, the end screen would pop up.
However, Karl’s grenade exploded at the exact same time on the same ground level behind Liu Zilang!
That was why in the freeze-frame of the end screen, Liu Zilang was captured flying in mid-air...
The arena and live-stream channels remained silent even after the replay had ended.
It was not just a ‘so delicious he could fly’ chicken dinner...
It was a ‘so lucky he could fly’ chicken dinner!
There was no doubt that if he had lingered in the circle for one more second, or if Karl’s grenade had damaged him just a little earlier, or if one of Shroud’s bullets had grazed him, Liu Zilang’s life would have ended immediately.
However, there were neither lucky circumstances nor what-ifs in tournaments...
The live audience was still stunned when someone suddenly started cheering.
Like a spark that had ignited a powder keg, the arena erupted in loud intense cheers!
“Oh my god, that was unbelievable!”
“Heavens! It isn’t a prank, right?”
“Can someone tell me if that guy is the child of miracles?”
“...”
The way how Liu Zilang had won the chicken dinner outside the circle was almost equivalent to miraculous in the eyes of the Western audience!
In the competitors’ spectator area under the stage, Misaka Mikoto was seen cheering hard as she saw the victory screen.
?(*T?T*)?
“Shifu is just too strong!
“Hm, hm! My encouragement must have been really effective!”
If Liu Zilang knew of Misaka Mikoto’s thoughts, he might have knocked her head!
‘If your energy is that potent, why didn’t I get the final destiny circle?!”
...
Following tradition, the chicken dinner winners were interviewed after the first match.
Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto were brought to the interview area. After a short while, a golden-haired woman with a big-wave hairstyle walked over. She was in heels, and she was smiling. In her hands were a microphone and a clipboard.
Misaka Mikoto, grinned from ear to ear as she stood next to Liu Zilang. However, she was suddenly surprised and her smile froze.
?(´??)?!
‘So... big!’
She stole a glance at Big-Wave and then lowered her gaze to look at herself. Her mouth mumbled something.
“Wow, what unbelievable skills!” the golden-haired Big-Wave said exaggeratedly as she approached them. “Firstly, congratulations on winning the first chicken dinner of the day!”
After the interpreter had relayed her message, Liu Zilang lifted the microphone in his hand and said politely, “Thank you.”
Big-Wave looked at her clipboard and then continued while smiling, “So, do you mind answering a few questions that your Western fans are very interested in knowing the answers to?”
“Of course not.” Liu Zilang nodded.
“The first question is...” Big-Wave gave a curious look at Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto. “Many people online are curious about the relationship between you two. There are rumors online that you are master and disciple, but rather than master and disciple, I think everyone is eager to believe that there’s something else. Do you think you can shed some light on that?”
After hearing Big-Wave’s question, the live audience began to whisper amongst themselves. Apparently, the Western audience was interested in gossip as much as their Eastern counterparts.
Misaka Mikoto’s face turned bright red. She looked flustered.
She dared not look at Liu Zilang. In her heart was an indescribable mix of anxiety and anticipation.
Liu Zilang was taken aback by the question.
‘Some other relation?’
He fell silent for a few seconds and then spoke, “Siblings?”
The whispering among the audience abruptly stopped when Liu Zilang gave his answer!
‘You’re not fooling anyone!’
Misaka Mikoto’s head was buried deep in her hoodie like an ostrich.
At the same time, in an apartment somewhere in Hua Xia, a girl in a koala T-shirt was sitting in front of her computer.
Upon hearing Liu Zilang’s words, she puffed her cheeks. Dissatisfaction was written all over her face!
‘Hmph!
‘Siblings my ass!
‘You’re not even lacking a younger sister!’
Big-Wave pressed her lips when she heard Liu Zilang’s answer. Evidently, the interview was not going in the direction she wanted it to.
In any case, it was a post-match interview and not a gossip talk show. She quickly brushed the topic aside as she said, “Looks like you two are close with each other.
“So, our next question goes to the cute little girl. In the match, Menhera-chan summoned ‘Heavenly Fire’ at a critical time to kill our supergirl Vivian from team SKK. I have to say, that was out of everyone’s expectations!
“Someone asked online, was the Heavenly Fire pure coincidence, or is there a secret to it?”
Liu Zilang almost laughed out loud when he heard the question. He thought that whoever had asked such an obvious question had to be pulling a prank them.
Liu Zilang was about to answer for her when the ‘ostrich’ Misaka Mikoto pulled her head out of her hoodie and spoke with all seriousness into the interviewer’s microphone, “Yes, I summoned that.”
