Chapter 167
After firing two shots, Nan XiangWan had completely adapted to this weapon. Apart from its lack of power, lifelessness, and inability to kill ghosts, she quite liked it.
In order to seriously play the game and avoid a repeat of yesterday's incident where she temporarily removed her weighted vest, Nan XiangWan took off all the weights on her body before entering.
She carefully removed ring after ring and handed them over to the staff after taking them all off.
Nan XiangWan: "Take good care of these, don't lose them."
Staff member speechless: "No one wants your weighted rings!"
Nan XiangWan: "Oh."
The members of the base were all dumbfounded!
Some even went up and weighed them - goodness, how heavy were these?
And she treasured them as if they were precious - no normal person would be able to steal them even if they wanted to!
Ge Dongxuan, who had boasted arrogantly at breakfast, didn't remove a single ring. The recoil even made her unsteady on her feet.
She demonstrated what it meant to be a complete beginner at FPS games!
With just ten or so practice shots, they would soon be entering real combat.
The seven girls of Tianming Qinu divided into red and blue teams.
Nan XiangWan led the weakest, Ge Dongxuan and Sha Ling, as the red team.
Zhu Sha, Yun Qian, Deng Si Nan and Zhou Wenxia formed the blue team.
The lead director Hua Yuanwu joined Nan XiangWan's red team. There were also two base members on each team acting as team captains.
The livestream view was completely aerial as the cameramen couldn't keep up.
A 5v5 matchup between 10 people! Begin!
The rules were that a hit meant elimination. The bursting paintballs were brightly colored and easy to distinguish.
Eliminated players could no longer continue shooting. They had to abide by the rules and immediately exit the field.
The team that eliminated all opposing players would be victorious!
The battlefield was a large jungle.
The red and blue teams entered from different entrances, first cautiously exploring and tense, with fake landmines and other obstacles on the ground that needed clearing before they could advance.
Only after finally encountering each other would the fierce battle begin!
The team captains from the base first demonstrated to the newcomers.
Here on the red team, the captain led the four carefully advancing, constantly explaining.
Red Team Captain: "Everyone be careful of the ground, go around or clear any landmines. If you step on one..." Hehehe!
Ge Dongxuan extremely nervous: "It'll, it'll explode?"
Red Team Captain: "No, it'll set off an alarm and expose your position."
Sha Ling breathed a sigh of relief: "You scared me to death! I thought it would really explode!"
Red Team Captain: "While we strive for realism, safety is still a top priority."
Hua Yuanwu: "It's just a game, a game! Don't be so timid, we're livestreaming!"
Ge Dongxuan: "Director Hua, if you're not scared then stop cowering behind me!"
Hua Yuanwu: "..."
The red team captain continued explaining: "Now I'll teach everyone how to clear mines. Watch closely, this is a landmine. It has a red circle around it, very obvious. You can see them clearly early on but once you encounter the blue team mid-way, the intense firefight makes it easy to overlook them, so stay alert!"
Hua Yuanwu: "I see you've laid quite a few mines on the way here, this set-up must have cost you! Do you have to reset everything after each game?"
Red Team Captain: "Yes, we have to clear the battlefield and reset after each round."
Hua Yuanwu: "No wonder it's expensive! Worth it!"
Red Team Captain: "Why don't you book the field for a whole day? Female celebrities are prone to injury."
Hua Yuanwu: "No no, they have thick skin, fully banned from fighting each other."
Seeing Ge Dongxuan and Sha Ling trembling as they walked, the red team captain asked: "Are you sure?"
Hua Yuanwu: "Not sure, but our program's budget is limited."
Red Team Captain: "..."
Just then, Nan XiangWan pointed above: "May I ask, are there mines in the trees too?"
Red Team Captain: "No."
No sooner had he finished speaking.
Nan XiangWan was up the tree!
In a flash, like a monkey, so fast you'd miss her in the blink of an eye!
The red team captain's eyes nearly bulged out. Experienced players had gone up trees before, but none as fast as Nan XiangWan!
In just two motions she was hanging from the branches!
What the hell!
Comments:
A flying monkey???
[Flying monkey gif]
...
The red team captain thought for a moment, then advised: "We're not at the mid-way point yet, no need to climb trees. Come down, how will you advance otherwise?"
Next second.
Nan XiangWan flew!
Clutching her paintball gun's sling in her mouth, she steadied herself and leapt!
Just like a flying squirrel, limbs spread, jumping three meters to the next tree!
Then she surely caught the trunk, immediately climbing up the moment she landed!
Like this, Nan XiangWan moved faster jumping from branch to branch than a person walking. Like a monkey leaping through the trees.
Within seconds she had reached the vanguard!
Waiting atop the furthest tree, she waved to those behind...
The red team captain was stunned, as if seeing a ghost!
Was this humanly possible?
Could humans do this?
Did she really think she had wings?
Clutching a gun in her mouth while hanging from branches, why not just fly at this point!
Hua Yuanwu, Ge Dongxuan and Sha Ling watched in amazement. They knew Nan XiangWan was capable of godly feats but didn't expect this!
What a waste she didn't join the army!
And so, Nan XiangWan continued swinging from branch to branch up ahead while the others followed the captain, carefully clearing mines as they advanced.
Ten minutes later, both teams were nearing the mid-line!
Traces of past battles still lingered about, those hard-to-wipe paint splotches splattered on trunks and leaves.
The key was the paintballs were a vivid red, just like blood.
The whole scene looked extremely striking!
The tension ratcheted up in an instant!
Ge Dongxuan and Sha Ling hid trembling behind trees.
Hua Yuanwu wasn't much better. After all, he was getting on in years and just walking here left him wheezing.
The red team captain gestured for them to keep quiet, whispering: "Director, breathe softly, they can hear you from the other side. Those who don't know better might think a bull got mixed in!"
Ge Dongxuan: "Hahaha!"
Sha Ling: "Pfft—"
Red Team Captain: "You two, don't laugh so loudly!"
Sigh!
The captain felt exhausted. These newcomers really didn't understand anything.
He felt their side had already given away their position!
And sure enough, no sooner had he thought this.
Pop pop!
Two paintballs shot over!
One whizzed right past Hua Yuanwu's fingertips!
The red paintball burst against a nearby tree trunk with a 'splat!'
Hua Yuanwu froze, breath arrested!
How frightening!
Ge Dongxuan and Sha Ling instantly held their breaths, not daring to move a muscle, let alone laugh.
The red team captain swiftly analyzed the bullets' trajectory to deduce the shooters' location!
But just as his mind raced.
Nan XiangWan in the tree above raised her gun!
Pop!
Bullseye!
The paintball precisely struck its target!
A cry of "Broccoli!" rang out shortly from the other side.
Next, the blue team captain emerged with hands raised, paint staining his chest.
Right over his heart!
The burst of red looked just like a pierced heart!
