Ch83 - Domestic Trials 6

Edited by kat

As soon as Lightning landed, he began to run far away from Mo Chen.

What kill points? Preserving his life was more important ah!

However, Mo Chen had obviously made up his mind to pursue and kill him. After clearing a wave of enemies around him, he immediately went after him.

Lightning felt like crying, but had no tears.

He knew that there were a lot of his and YEY’s fans watching on the scene. Otherwise, he would want to apologize to Wen Xi directly in the public channel so that Mo Chen, that stinking rogue, would stop chasing him!

Fortunately, during this match he had intentionally run away from Mo Chen and found places to hide everywhere, so for a while, Mo Chen couldn’t find him no matter how hard he tried.

However, if he focused on escaping, he wouldn’t have any energy to gain kill points.

Up until the third circle, he only had three kills in his hands, all of which he had taken when he had bumped into people while trying to escape.

Then, fate played a joke on him—When the position of the fourth circle was announced, he found that he had to run towards Mo Chen if he wanted to enter the circle.

This was really….very embarrassing.

“The position of the fourth circle is not good for Lightning ah!” A-Yi obviously noticed this as well and said, “From a bird’s-eye view, we can see that Momo is already hurrying in the direction of the safe zone, and Lightning must pass through Momo’s location to enter the circle.”

“What if he went around?” Bunny Ji asked, but without waiting for A-Yi to reply, she came up with the answer herself, “He might not have enough time.”

A-Yi said, “Right, he might not have enough time. If he goes around, then Lightning will have to prepare to eat poison.”

While the two casters were talking, Lightning seemed to have made a choice, and he turned around and ran in Mo Chen’s direction!

At the same time, his three teammates had the tacit understanding to also hurry over to where Mo Chen was.

“Lightning’s teammates want to help him!” A-Yi exclaimed, “They probably guessed Momo’s location through the kill notifications and sound of gunfire!”

“Wow, this is interesting now.” Bunny Ji watched the fun and thought it was getting lively. “Momo has already entered the circle, but he hasn’t gone further in. It seems that he is going to wait for Lightning at the edge of the safe zone. If the understanding between Lightning and his teammates is good enough, then they can actually encircle him in turn. Is Momo going to kill Lightning first, or will the YEY team successfully encircle Momo?”

As soon as she finished speaking, the audience couldn’t help but hold their breaths nervously.

Mo Chen and the fans of CLM had to support Mo Chen. MoXi CP fans didn’t need to be mentioned. Knowing that Mo Chen was helping Wen Xi take revenge, even if Mo Chen chased Lightning around for eight matches in a row, they would still definitely support him with both hands!

This didn’t even take into account how Wen Xi had been thrown into a pit and killed by Lightning during the morning match. They would like Mo Chen to pit Lightning in the same way.

Now, they had even started to call out, “Heaven’s fortune will shift, and karma spares no one.”

Meanwhile, fans of Lightning and YEY had scolded Mo Chen 800 times in their hearts, but at the same time, they resented and worried over Lightning—You could have provoked anyone, but you just had to go and provoke this game bug’s wife!

The coach of the YEY team saw that his family’s trump card was targeted by Mo Chen and also couldn’t quite sit still. He stealthily drew up to Chen Xiao and said, “Mo Chen pursuing Lightning, this isn’t according to your instructions ba?”

Chen Xiao calmly responded, “How could that be? It’s not like you don’t know how everyone high and low in our club listens to Mo Chen.”

YEY’s coach broke down at that moment. “Then based on our two families loving and killing each other for so many years, can you get him to not overdo it? Our team is counting on Lightning to go to the Global Championship… ”

“Who has fucking loved and killed each other for so many years?” Chen Xiao rolled his eyes, and didn’t dare to compliment his approach. “Don’t say such misleading words ba. If you have the ability, then you can go talk with Mo Chen directly.”

“Alright ba.” The YEY coach saw that negotiations had failed and left decisively.

It was normal for strong teams to pin each other down. In past games, their YEY had also surrounded, chased down, and killed the CLM players more than once.

However, that was to ensure that their team’s total points could stably stay in the top two.

After the reform to the competition system, the selection of players was no longer based on the team, but on the players themselves. The importance of individual points was now far greater than the total score of the team.

In this case, restricting someone’s personal points was deadly.

But it was fine. It wasn’t certain who would restrict who.

After YEY’s coach returned to his original position and sat down, he looked at the players who were all trying to surround and kill Mo Chen on the big screen, and showed a cunning smile.

After the competition system had changed, the number of players in the solo competition was no longer fixed. CLM had five people playing, MQ had three, and if the other teams could let one play, then that was already really good.

YEY had four, their number second only to CLM.

——No matter how strong Mo Chen was, could he deal with four people attacking at the same time?

As soon as he finished thinking about it, he saw that on the big screen, Lightning’s perspective suddenly shook. Lightning, who had originally been rushing in Mo Chen’s direction, suddenly fell to the ground with an arrow in his head.

Then, not waiting for anyone to react, a bullet followed up, crisply and cleanly killing Lightning!

[CLM-Wency killed YEY-Lightning with a sniper rifle!]

With this kill prompt, Lightning’s perspective went gray, and YEY’s coach’s face turned white, “Fuck! This is impossible!”

Far away in the mountain area, Wen Xi had crossed the entire area and occupied the highest point, just to kill Lightning. After killing Lightning, he showed a satisfied smile and said, “I will carry out my revenge myself.”

Mo Chen raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but praise, “Very good ah.”

The distance was more than 800 meters. Even if Mo Chen used an 8x scope, he may not be able to get a headshot with a single shot, but Wen Xi was able to get a headshot with a single arrow without even having a scope. This showed that his control of the bow and his perception of distance had already reached a terrifying level!

Even the casters couldn’t help but be surprised.

“Holy….” The word “fuck” was swallowed down by A-Yi, and he continued, “Wency’s arrow just now was too strong! This is already something that no human can do!”

Bunny Ji exclaimed, “This distance… My god, this is too unbelievable!”

The audience at the scene also exclaimed. For a moment, they had the delusion that what they were watching was not the livestream of the Domestic Trials, but some kind of special effects from a movie.

“God Xi is awesome!”

“Awesome, awesome, this is really…. I can’t even describe it with words.”

“Damn it, look, I’m getting goosebumps!”

Let alone the casters and audience being surprised, even Chen Xiao was surprised by Wen Xi’s arrow just now—This fucking… What kind of immortals were in this team?!

In fact, Wen Xi hadn’t been too sure when he shot the arrow. After all, the distance was too far, and the target was a single point.

However, after seeing through the 8x scope on his sniper rifle that YEY was closing in on Mo Chen, in order to save Mo Chen, even if the probability of hitting was just one percent, he would still shoot that arrow.

Not to mention, in his mind, the probability of that arrow hitting was actually around 50%.

Because he killed Lightning, Mo Chen lost his reason to stay and pit people at the edge of the safe zone, so he turned around and left.

The remaining three members of YEY didn’t say anything, but they were absolutely terrified inside—These two members of CLM were completely able to hit wherever they pointed ah! How was anyone supposed to play against them!

In the end, out of these three people, only Thunder managed to hide, survive, and enter the final circle. However, just as he entered the circle, he was blown up and killed after MQ’s CC tossed a grenade at him.

In this match, CC also failed to break into the top three. He was shot once each by Mo Chen and Wen Xi in the final circle, and died as miserably as possible.

Wen Xi intended to help Chen Wei, so after killing CC, he used a grenade to explode and kill off both himself and Mo Chen. This allowed Chen Wei, whose hiding spot was still unknown, to take first place.

Mo Chen was a little depressed, but he didn’t think what he did was wrong. He even felt that this feeling of “dying for love” with Wen Xi was pretty good?

Because Mo Chen had more health when Wen Xi threw the grenade, when the final rankings came out, Mo Chen took second place, and Wen Xi took third.

“Wow, for this match, the top three ranks are again occupied by CLM!” Bunny Ji said, “Let’s all congratulate CLM! At the same time, I have to say, CC is so strong!”

“Yes, CC is very strong!” A-Yi went along with her and said, “With the CLM players everywhere in the final circle, it was really not easy for CC to get this far! This match he took 11 kills, and his total solo points surpassed Windy to take third place!”

The big screen first showed the total solo points for the fourth match, with Wen Xi in first, Mo Chen in second, CC in third, and then Chen Wei, Jiang Xinyi and Ling Shuyi.

Then, the total points that everyone got for the first day were shown. Mo Chen and Wen Xi took the lead occupying first and second place, and then third was CC.

Chen Wei, Jiang Xinyi, and Ling Shuyi’s points were all in the top eight!

Although Chen Xiao had predicted this result, he still jumped up from his chair excitedly when he actually saw it!

He had never been so proud of all the members of his family’s team!

On the other hand, Lightning had secluded himself.

Today, he had played well in the first and second matches, but in the third and fourth matches he had been pursued and killed by Mo Chen the entire time, so his total points fell out of the top eight. He was now so regretful that his intestines had turned green.

People who were familiar with him knew that he was particularly fond of pitting people at the edge of the safe zone. At least one third of the kills he took were from pitting people.

But after today, he had some psychological trauma regarding pitting people….

He really….should have never, ever, ever pitted Wen Xi!

That night, Lightning called Wen Xi, during which he cried out, “Ge! I’m wrong, Ge! I shouldn’t have pitted you! I’m begging you to please stop your captain ba! I’ll send you delicious food!”

After receiving this call, Wen Xi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and replied with six words, “Everyone depends on their own ability.”

“No! Ge, you don’t understand. It’s not a matter of ability, it’s a problem of intentionally targeting someone!” Lightning urged, “Enemies meeting on a narrow path is one thing, but right now it’s your family’s captain chasing after me and trying to kill me!”

“Well, that’s true.” Wen Xi nodded, and after thinking about it for a while, he said, “I’ll have to talk to him a bit about not chasing after you to murder you.”

Hearing this, Lightning’s eyes brightened.

However, before he could open his mouth to thank Wen Xi, he heard Wen Xi’s next sentence, “He chased after you the entire time, resulting in him not having as many kills as me.”

Lightning: “….”

“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up now. Wishing you a happy game tomorrow~” Wen Xi said with a smile.

Lightning: “….”

Fuck! Suddenly, he had become even more uneasy, what to do now?

It was really true that birds of the feather flock together…. Why on earth did he think that Wen Xi was different from that group of calamitous loathsome men ah!
