Chapter 84 of Season 1 of The Genius Archer's Streaming

30. Power Suit Play (1)

The next day.

10:00 AM.

Three videos were uploaded to Almond's AllTube.

The news of the upload quickly spread through the gaming community.

Not only in Kingchi and Bella 31, where he had his main base, but also in communities for other games, it was frequently mentioned.

It couldn't be helped.

Currently, Almond was the only person to have matched the record of Electromagnetic Waves, and anyone who liked games would naturally take an interest in him.

This was all thanks to the success of the "Disassembly Analysis" live broadcast.

- Matched the Electromagnetic Waves record?

- Oh, he has AllTube too?

- First release. Soon!

- Wow, he just uploaded the video, lol.

- Less than a month and already this much, damn lol.

As various people gathered, the number of first-time viewers for the initial release was a staggering 12,000.

While 12,000 views on AllTube might seem low,

having 12,000 people watch the first release is a completely different feeling.

It's like people lining up from the moment the store opens.

In particular, the third video, "Yes, Almond put on the power suit," was very popular.

It seemed like it might become another blockbuster video.

"How... how did he upload this?"

Joo-hyuk rubbed his eyes and asked.

He couldn't believe what he was seeing.

They had definitely drunk a lot together yesterday. His head was still pounding, and he couldn't do anything.

And he was uploading videos?

"Even this was all from yesterday's broadcast?"

All three uploaded videos were edited from yesterday's promotion battle broadcast.

That means he worked on the videos last night.

"Is this really right?"

At this point, he was worried that he might have made something strange after drinking.

'I need to check.'

The first releases were scheduled to go live sequentially, 10 minutes apart.

The first video's first release had just started.

* * *

The first video is about when Almond met the Moron Five.

The video starts with Almond encountering them in the armory.

Whoosh.

Without warning, a blade flies directly at him.

The opening scene is a tense sword fight.

The camera zooms in and out with each flying blade, creating a sense of incredible speed.

Then, Almond spots a sniper on the second floor with a bow.

Almond climbs up by sticking his blade into the wall, like a scene from a thriller movie.

Finally, he reaches the top.

Bang!

He breaks the window and throws a blade at the enemy.

The enemy's shocked expression is shown in close-up as the blade hits.

Thud!

The expression is staged like a ridiculous horror movie, a first for Seo Ji-a's videos but effective.

- 5:08 The Golden Goblin kid is legendary.

- 5:09 The shocked expression is hilarious lol.

- 5:08 It's like a B-grade horror movie lol.

- 5:09 The youngest of the Moron Five, damn lol.

Many of the best comments mention this part.

However, this scene wasn't even the climax of the video.

- 12:51 From here, the arrow barrage is insane.

└ Really, how does he do this?

└ No matter how much I practice, I can't do it like that, he's crazy.

└ Seriously, is this even possible? lol.

The part pointed out by the top comment in the video's comment section.

As the video reaches this part, Almond's insane arrow barrage is on full display.

Bang!

The video plays at normal speed, then zooms in on Almond's detailed hand movements in slow motion.

Then, boom!

The video returns to normal speed with the music.

Thud!

The Moron Five, who were moving slowly, fall one by one.

"Wow."

Even Joo-hyuk, who knew what was coming, was left with his mouth agape.

The first video ends here.

The second video, "Jae──son," is essentially a comedy.

Jae──son in the power suit looks like a muscular pervert. Every time he delivers a line,

huge text pops up all over the screen.

This is followed by Almond's terrified escape.

- Haha lol.

- Why is Almond so scared lol.

- Jae──son!

- Crazy lol, what a troll.

- Really terrifying, damn lol.

- Jae──son! He never actually says this line, but it fits so well lol.

└ Really lol, he never actually says Jae──son lol.

└ Wow, I just realized this from the comment lol, there's no such part.

└ Haha lol.

Pfft.

Joo-hyuk burst out laughing, even though he had already seen the video.

The second video was quite entertaining.

However, the best part would surely be in the last video.

After some time, Joo-hyuk cautiously played the video that was currently in its first release.

* * *

Almond is seen walking through a desolate desert.

It's a barren landscape with no one around.

The area is already filled with toxic gas.

Despite this, Almond walks calmly.

Even when the blue zone is about to shrink again.

"I can handle it. I'll do a bit more farming."

He mutters this. To farm in such toxic gas would normally be insane.

- Ah lol, with the power suit, you can farm all day!

- Still, be careful from the third shrink.

- Really, he's a shoo-in for the win at this point.

Thanks to the power suit.

The gas mask function of the power suit was still working fine. It would break down with prolonged use, but it could last until the third shrink.

Almond is farming until the very last moment to maximize this advantage.

When the third blue zone shrink announcement comes,

he stops farming.

His bag is filled with numerous medical supplies.

"Now, it's time to sweep them all."

Smirk.

A confident smile appears on his lips.

- Go!

- Let's go!

- Kill them all!

- Woo!

- Yo-ho!

- Oh yeah!

"Let's go!"

Clang──

He kicks off, and his body, light as a feather, shoots forward.

Whoosh!

The wind sound, usually heard on a motorcycle, hits his ears.

- Wow lol.

- Try first-person view, it's amazing.

- Haha lol.

- I want to wear the power suit too ㅠㅠ.

- It feels like a different game now.

- When running like a ninja, it feels like a first-person ninja game lol.

- Ninja running lol.

Clang! Clang!

Running, drinking energy drinks.

He repeats this.

When he gets used to the speed.

Through the rough sand and dust clouding his vision.

"Blue zone!"

The shape of the blue zone is visible.

A transparent blue dome encircles an area.

Inside, there are still...

47 survivors.

Swish.

Almond has already loaded all his arrows into his right hand.

Zap!

Static electricity crackles as he enters the blue zone.

Boom!!!

Bang! Clang!

Gunfire erupts from all directions as soon as he enters.

It's clear that this is an area with survivors.

'Are they fighting?'

Almond runs toward the gunfire.

"There."

He whispers and draws his bow.

- Huh? It's too far.

- You need an 8x scope to shoot that far, right?

- He's going to shoot that?

- Dang.

- Is it possible with a recurve bow?!

A recurve bow, depending on the strength, can fly much farther than a compound bow.

Squeak……!

Almond uses the superhuman strength of the power suit to pull the bowstring as hard as he can.

His abdomen and waist tense up, and the blue light around the suit glows.

Bang!!

A loud sound erupts from the bow.

Whoosh!

An unusual whistling sound follows.

The arrow, drawing a faint parabola──

- Wow!

- Damn!

- Wow!

- Whoa!

- Did he turn?!!!!

Thud!

It hits the faintly visible head.

The opponent doesn't seem to have a helmet yet.

It becomes a kill log.

* * *

"Huh!?"

Another player, who was shooting, notices Almond's presence.

"Power suit...!?"

It was clearly visible from a distance that Almond was wearing a power suit.

He immediately tried to run. Normally, he should have fled.

But the weapon is a bow.

'Maybe... I can do this?'

If he kills Almond, he can get the power suit. If the weapon was hero-grade or better, he would have fled, but the weapon is manageable.

If he can take him down, he wins.

He aims his gun at Almond.

At this distance, a gun is overwhelmingly advantageous.

Click.

As the hammer slowly aims at Almond's blue figure.

Whoosh!

He disappears.

"?"

But the trigger is already pulled.

Clang!

'Oh no.'

Sssss!

A snake-like sound is heard.

'Where is he?'

It's a completely different angle. The moment he turns his head.

He sees the arrow tip already in front of him.

Thud!

The bulletproof helmet is pierced.

"Ugh!"

His neck jerks back from the impact.

'What kind of bow is this?'

He gets up like a spring and moves his gun. Or rather, tries to.

'One more?'

As soon as he barely lifts his head, he sees another arrow tip.

Unless they shot together, it's impossible for it to fly like this.

Thud!

The bulletproof helmet is pierced again.

His neck jerks back again.

"Ugh..."

A hero-grade bulletproof helmet.

It holds up to this point.

Thud!

But there's another arrow.

"Damn!"

With this last word, he leaves his name in the kill log.

It was a triple shot.

Three arrows flew in succession, all hitting the head accurately.

He didn't even have time to regain his senses after the first hit, and they kept coming.

From a distance where the opponent was barely visible.

- Are you crazy, Almond!! Are you crazy, Almond!! Are you crazy, Almond!! Are you crazy, Almond!!

- Holy moly!

- How did all three hit!?

- You cheated! Almond! This is a bug! You cheated! Almond! This is a bug! You cheated! Almond! This is a bug! You cheated! Almond! This is a bug!

- Scary.

- Scary again. Take responsibility!

"Thank you for the support. The power suit is better than I thought."

Such a triple shot is usually difficult. Without the power suit, which requires intense focus even to the fingertips, it would have been impossible.

'This is good in many ways?'

The power suit seems to excel with a bow, unlike firearms, which are more dependent on physical attributes.

Another notification comes.

Almond checks the blue zone's new position.

'A square?'

It's moving to the square. As always, the blue zone is moving to a distant location. But with the power suit, the distance is no handicap.

In fact, Almond instinctively felt that the "square" could be the final stage of this match.

'I won.'

This match, he will win.

At this moment, a mission appears.

With 45 players left, he needs 20 kills from now.

It's a tall order.

- Just do it now lol.

- Wow, is someone sponsoring 200,000 won again?

- Haha, throwing money on the ground!

- Since he's going to do it anyway, what's the point of the mission? Haha lol.

- ??? : Wow! Thank you for 200,000 won!

- He's scared to set a kill mission, lol.

"Wow! Thank you for 200,000 won!"

Almond repeats the exact words from the chat and runs forward.

To get 20 kills, he needs to move quickly.
