    In the residential area of Georgopol.


    Next to a window in a two-story building.


    A Kar98K rested in Shen Zeyan’s hands. His 8x scope was firmly locked onto the smokescreen.


    He did not hold his breath, and the crosshair on his screen shook slightly.


    He and his gun... were very silent.


    Suddenly, something flew out from within the smokescreen.


    In an instant!


    The crosshair of Shen Zeyan’s 8x scope shifted toward a certain point within the smokescreen and struck like a venomous snake.


    Bang!


    The rion ring of a sniper rifle!


    A sniper bullet pierced through the air as it flew toward its target!


    The caster had Shen Zeyan’s first-person’s perspective on the camera. The live audience members and live stream viewers did not have enough time to react when...


    A cloud of blood appeared from within the smokescreen, and then something seemed to fall.


    The next instant...


    A kill notification appeared on the top right corner of the screen.


    “IG-Wolves killed SKK-Vivian with Kar98K!”


    Whoa!


    Countless viewers from the live audience and the live stream roared in surprise when they saw the incredible blind shot!


    “Oh my gawd! That blind shot... he’s not cheating, right?”


    “F*ck! How did he even hit her?”


    “Look at Master Ze’s face. He looks so calm!”


    “Master Ze: It’s just a basic technique, don’t overreact! Now sit back and watch!”


    “What a showoff! That shot made me all moist down there!”


    “By the way, I know Vivian wasn’t at full health earlier, but didn’t she have quite a lot of health left? Furthermore, Master Ze didn’t hit her on the head. How did he one-shot kill her?”


    “I’m wondering about the same thing as well. Did he hit another vulnerable spot?”


    “...”


    It has to be mentioned that the viewers in the live stream channel were somewhat precognitive.


    After a short while, the caster reyed the scene.


    Under God’s perspective from the caster’s camera, all smokescreen and obstacles were removed. Only the two yers remained on screen.


    After Shen Zeyan had shot his bullet, blood spurted out from a spot on Vivian’s head from within the smokescreen!


    Was it a bug in the notification?


    Su Changming immediately shook his head and said, “No, it’s not the head, it’s the neck!”


    The caster’s camera zoomed in on Vivian who had already fallen to the ground.


    Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air when they saw a gaping bullet hole on Vivian’s neck, it was exactly as what Su Changming had said!


    “Shen Zeyan did not hit her head, yes, but his shot was still extremely urate to a certain extent.” Lord Rong smiled dryly.


    “I’m more concerned about how he was even able to hit Vivian at all,” Ruo Feng said as he rubbed his big nose. “The first shot was a lucky shot, sure. However, if the second shot is also a lucky shot, it’s too metaphysical.”


    “It wasn’t a lucky shot.” Lord Rong, who had proimed confidently that Shen Zeyan would not be able to hit his target earlier, reyed the scene in his mind. “If I’m not mistaken, Master Ze must have discerned Vivian’s position by looking at where she tossed the second smoke grenade.”


    “I think so too,” Su Changming said as he rubbed his chin. “Master Ze is not a showoff like Zng who has many tricks up his sleeve. His ystyle is more like a venomous snake who’s always lying in wait. He can pick out the smallest ws in the most opportune moment and can deliver unbelievable results.”


    Ruo Feng sucked in a breath of cold air as he listened to the analysis of the other twomentators. “That means... Master Ze not only discerned his opponent’s position by looking at where she had lobbed the smoke grenade, but he also hit her neck in one shot...


    “Hiss! That’s unbelievable!”


    “Heheh, that’s the difference between an amateur and a professional.” Lord Rong joked. “These seemingly impossible maneuvers are all but basic techniques in their handbooks.”


    “However, Master Ze’s situation now doesn’t look too good.”


    “Yup. Thanks to that dy earlier, Master Ze is thest yer to move out of Georgopol and the V-shaped trenches. More importantly, his gunshot earlier has exposed his presence to the other yers. He should be faced with a lot of resistance when he tries to enter the safe zer.”


    “Eh? Someone from the V-shaped trenches has already entered the safe zone. Oh! It’s Vic!”


    As thementators cried out in surprise, the caster’s camera shifted over to Vic.


    On the tournament screen, a ‘grass monster’ in a ghillie suit was seen stealthily sneaking into the circle.


    That grass monster was none other than Liu Zng.


    The ghillie suit had been with him for a while, and he had been wearing it ever since he picked it up from the airdrop crate at the grassy knoll near School.


    Its effect had not been too obvious before this. Sometimes it was even eye-catching.


    However, he had now transformed into a ‘mirage tank’. He silently crept into a bush that was about half the height of a human’s.


    Then, the caster’s camera shifted to someone amid the wheat field.


    After Liu Zng had moved into position, that person tried to sweep his view along the edge of the field with his 4x scope.


    The bush was already well-hidden. Along with the camouge effect of Liu Zng’s ghillie suit, that person swept across Liu Zng’s position twice without noticing that he was there.


    The audience looked at each other when they saw this.


    It was not your typical case of “Vision is not required inpetitive esports”. The person on camera earlier was none other than the ‘True Devil’s Eye’, the god-like Satan!


    If Liu Zng had managed to pass the ‘quality control’ of a yer of such caliber, it meant that his camouge worked.


    A minute and a half passed.


    The blue web that covered more than half of the map shuddered. Then, it continued to relentlessly devour thest piece of the ‘holynd’.


    It was already the thirdst circle of the match. One did not need to borate on the amount of damage it dealt.


    The shrinking of the circle was a signal that started a chain of events!


    The yers from Georgopol and the V-shaped trenches immediately made their move.


    They unleashed their respective talents. Some of them threw smokescreens, while some of them lobbed frag grenades. They each performed their ‘pilgrimage’ toward the safe zone.


    Tut tut tut!


    Tatatat!


    In the blink of an eye...


    The gunfire became one continuous din. The entire northwestern part of the safe zone had be a chaotic melting pot!


    Liu Zng, who was hiding in the bush, had the urge to try a few shots when he heard the sounds of waring from behind him.


    However, he was aware that him opening fire would ruin his grand n. His hiding ce was already perfect. That would not be the case if he opened fire.


    He would be under the eyes of everyone in the safe zone. Without any physical cover, he would immediately perish.


    Liu Zng could only restrain his urge and repeat to himself...


    ‘I am a tree...


    ‘A tree...’


    Suddenly, he heard footstepsing from behind him.


    Liu Zng carefully turned his head around.


    Someone wielding a gun was sneaking toward his position while stealing dirty looks to his left and right.


    Liu Zng was dumbfounded!


    ‘Are you... f*cking kidding me?


    ‘Don’te any closer!


    ‘I’ll scream if you do!’
