A hand swung, a blade fell, and so did a person!

1 Kill!

Billy watched in horror as blood spurted out from his body. His knees grew weak and he slumped to the ground.

His eyes stared soullessly at the sky above him.

‘How… How could I fall here?’

“4AM-Vic killed SKK-Billy with sickle!”

Billy’s whole body trembled when he saw the kill notification appear on the upper right corner of his screen!

‘It’s him!’

After realizing that Liu Zilang was the opponent who had gone around in circles with him for ages, a hint of relief appeared in his lifeless eyes.

However, it was then immediately displaced by endless anger!

‘That shouldn’t be!’

Even the live stream viewers were dumbfounded. They thought that Liu Zilang was dead meat because he was being pursued by Billy King who had a shotgun.

Then, they saw him mess around with his opponent across a wall and thought that he had a chance of escaping.

They had not expected Liu Zilang to go above and beyond and kill Billy with a sickle.

He might have received some ‘external assistance’, but his last slash was a return trip from the brink of death!

“LOLOL, the Grim Reaper’s sickle!”

“That was a crushing victory in a battle of wits, I’m not exaggerating!”

“Wrong! It’s the wise sickle of socialism, and it’s victorious over the corrupt firearms of capitalism!”

“Oh my, it looks like our comrade here is stoned!”

“By the way… is Eat Sh*t Bro still in the channel?”

“Beep beep! Beep beep! Special delivery for Eat Sh*t Bro!”

…

Swish swish swish!

Being under fire of SmaK who was wielding a VSS on a rooftop in northern Rozhok, Liu Zilang dodged left and right as he picked up the shotgun Billy had left behind. Then, he hid in the building next to him.

He had suffered two gunshots. Luckily for him, the damage output of the VSS was not too high. With the protection of Billy’s level one military vest, Liu Zilang only lost a little more than half of his health.

After going through the door, Liu Zilang picked up several bandages and patched himself up. He then proceeded to search for items and equipment in the buildings south of Rozhok.

There was only one row of houses in southern Rozhok; a huge contrast when compared to the densely populated northern Rozhok. Out of the seven players who landed in Rozhok, Liu Zilang and Billy were the only ones who landed in the south. The other five landed in various spots in the north.

Liu Zilang moved eastward. By the time he reached the Garage, gunfire broke out in the northern half of the city. The players in that area had apparently discovered each other.

One major characteristic of the buildings in Rozhok was that the distance between them was huge. It was easy for one to discover their opponents from a distance, and it allowed for mid to far range confrontations that did not necessarily result in someone dying.

Even after Liu Zilang was done looting the southern half of Rozhok, not a single kill notification from the northern half of Rozhok appeared.

Everyone was playing in a restrained manner.

Liu Zilang was equipped with a Mini14 and an AK. He had only managed to find a Red Dot Sight and a Holographic Sight. He had no magnification scopes.

“That’s a proper circle…” Liu Zilang exclaimed as he glanced at the minimap.

The first circle of the match was not only along the flight route, but it had Pochinki as its center as well. Not to mention, it included locations such as Water Town, Ruins, and many other scattered resource points.

Rozhok, where Liu Zilang was, was at the edge of the safe zone.

He noticed something interesting.

The boundary of the safe zone was exactly on the trunk road that separated Rozhok into northern and southern halves. The southern half of Rozhok was in the safe zone.

It meant that if the people in the northern half were to escape the blue circle, they would have to move southward.

Liu Zilang became a little excited when he thought about it.

He considered his options and then hopped onto a buggy he had found in the Garage.

Vroom vroom vroom~!

Sparks and thick smoke were emitted from the buggy’s exhaust pipe. The roar of the buggy’s engine could be heard from afar.

The players in the northern half of Rozhok heard the sound of the buggy’s engine and quickly realized something.

Someone in the southern half of Rozhok was trying to leave town.

They did not know that Liu Zilang was deliberately pressuring them into escaping the blue circle as soon as they could.

Similar to a standoff, a player would hold the principle of, ‘I’m not moving unless my opponent moves’.

Therefore, if no one else is going to escape, I’ll just stay where I am.

However, once Liu Zilang had attempted to run away, even though the players in the northern half of Rozhok had not been directly antagonized by his actions, they subconsciously began to feel the need to move out.

After a short while, from God’s perspective, the five people in the northern half of Rozhok were seen moving southward at varying speeds. They had seemingly been affected by Liu Zilang’s preemptive move.

Then, a player who was closer to the edge of the northern half of Rozhok sneaked across to the southern half while the other players fought with each other.

That player was Vampire, a Russian player from team Vega. He was unaware that his actions had not escaped Liu Zilang’s watchful eyes.

Had Liu Zilang escape on his buggy?

Of course not.

He had climbed up a wooden guard tower on a hill after hiding his buggy at a slope near the southern edge of Rozhok.

The caster’s camera had captured all this. The three commentators on the platform were curious about why he spent so much effort in covering his tracks.

Su Changming was the first to show an expression of comprehension on his face.

“That cunning guy!” he said while laughing, “I think the other players in Rozhok might fall into his trap if they’re careless.”

Lord Rong nodded his head after hearing him. “Yup, it looks like Vic is going to let them go but he’s just luring them into his trap. Now, Vampire thinks that no one saw him move into the southern half of Rozhok. Will he be moving directly toward the safe zone?

“No, he’s headed toward the water tower on the slope,” Ruo Feng exclaimed in surprise, “Isn’t that an ‘express delivery’?”

In the game, Vampire neither hid in a house nor somewhere else along the boundary of the safe zone. Instead, he ran up the slope where Liu Zilang was hiding.

He had the same idea as Liu Zilang, but he did not know that his opponent who had seemingly left town was still waiting for him there on the slope.

The live audience members and live stream viewers did not feel any sense of anxiety or suspense for Vampire as they watched the scene unfold. Instead, they shared a moment of silence for him.

Vampire was totally in the dark about Liu Zilang’s presence, and the spectators were perfectly aware of Liu Zilang’s marksmanship.

There was practically no chance of Liu Zilang missing during the ambush.

Vampire ran along the narrow path up the slope, and he soon reached the high slope next to the water tower.

His original plan had been to search the guard tower nearby.

However, once he was on high ground, he spotted someone on the eastern side of town making his way across the road. That person was exposed and did not have any cover.

Without giving it another thought, Vampire lifted his gun and tap-fired frantically.

The player he was shooting at was M4, a Taiwanese player from team AHQ. M4 started ”snake-dancing’ the moment he realized someone was shooting at him.

However, Vampire’s first few shots were superbly accurate, and M4 lost a huge chunk of his health because of that.

After M4 had started snake-dancing, Vampire scoped into his 4x scope and killed his target mercilessly.

What everyone did not understand was why…

While Vampire was shooting at the player on the road, Liu Zilang did not take the opportunity to ambush him.

‘But he’s an easy target!’ Questions surfaced in everyone’s minds, ‘What’s this guy… trying to do?’
