003. The 4AM Team Was Wiped Out!

What was despairing was that the enemy's head appeared again, only to instantly duck back down, not giving Wei Shen any time to react.

Moreover, the enemy appeared from a different position every time. By the time Wei Shen dragged his scope over, the enemy had already ducked back again.

This time, the enemy was watching Yong Yuan. Fortunately, Yong Yuan was moving, so the enemy's quick-scope shot missed his head and only struck his chest.

Before Yong Yuan could breathe a sigh of relief, the enemy appeared again like a ghost. Another bullet came screaming over, tore into flesh, and sent a spray of blood flying. Two bullets reduced Yong Yuan to a sliver of health.

If not for his Level 3 Armor, he would already have been knocked down.

"Good grief, this guy is terrifying. Did we get matched with G Shen?" Yong Yuan complained as he braced himself and charged forward.

He was already committed and had no way out, so all he could do was hope Wei Shen could finish the enemy.

But reality was always far removed from ideals. Another incredibly accurate quick-scope shot appeared. Three bullets successfully took Yong Yuan out.

Wei Shen gritted his teeth and fired twice, but neither shot hit. Furious, he had no choice but to switch to his rifle and repeatedly tap at the enemy's dirt hill, hoping luck would let one shot graze him.

Unfortunately, luck was not on his side today. Not one shot hit. Instead, he only annoyed the enemy.

The enemy treated him like an irritating little side dish. He peeked out and fired one shot, hitting Wei Shen squarely in the forehead. Wei Shen's health had not even been fully restored, and this time he could not hold on. He fell to the ground in unwilling defeat.

Only the female teammate was left on the field.

"Waaah! Don't kill me~~ Big brother~~~" The female teammate's pleading voice was pleasant, but at that moment, it sounded so comical that it made people want to laugh.

It was the usual pig squealing, making the three members of 4AM roll their eyes.

Jiang Siming did not hear her wails, however. Calmly, he gave her a bullet of release and ended the battle.

The 4AM team, along with a famous female streamer, had all been eliminated by an unfamiliar random player in less than a minute.

"Xiao Jiang, why aren't you running? This—"

Wang Jun, who had been focused on escaping for his life, had been about to vent his frustration over missing his shots on Jiang Siming. But the moment he glanced at the information flashing in the upper-right corner, the words died in his throat.

Then Jiang Siming heard the sound of a sofa being dragged from the other side of the Internet café. Zhou Qiang and Yuan Bing ran over from there and came to his computer.

"Jiang Siming, you didn't use hacks, did you?"

"You sniped an entire team by yourself? Is that for real?"

The two of them searched for evidence that Jiang Siming was cheating, but ultimately found nothing. With no other choice, they returned to their seats and continued running from the zone.

Jiang Siming continued playing, excitement written across his face. It was not because he had killed so many people, but because he had noticed that two of the four boxes were glowing!

It was the same kind of glow as the Kar98k fragment from before. Two of the boxes were shining with it!

He hurried over and picked them up to take a look.

"Picked up Rifle Mastery Fragment *1 (1/1). Fragment quantity complete. Can be used directly." "Picked up Voice Actor Skill Fragment *1 (1/3). Fragment quantity incomplete. Cannot be used yet."

He immediately used the Rifle Mastery. Another wave of warmth surged into his mind, and Jiang Siming discovered that his brain now contained a huge collection of PUBG rifle-handling experience.

Everything from pulling his aim, controlling recoil with a 4x Scope, controlling recoil with a 6x Scope, and burst-fire techniques was included.

This left Jiang Siming incredibly excited, with the blood throughout his body boiling.

Something this bizarre had really happened. His game was different from everyone else's!

How could this be?

Jiang Siming remembered that, when he had left the Internet café to buy cigarettes earlier, a dull peal of thunder had sounded outside. It seemed to have struck somewhere near him. At the time, he had not paid attention. His whole body had felt as if it had been shocked, but nothing else had happened, and since he had been focused on returning to play, he had not thought much of it.

Now that he thought about it, that had to be the reason.

Game skills could actually be born in the game!

And judging from this Voice Actor Skill, it clearly was not limited to game skills. There might be other things too!

Could other games have them as well?

To verify this, Jiang Siming made up a random excuse, exited the current game, told Wang Jun and the others he had something to do, and ran off.

He had to switch to another Internet café. Otherwise, Wang Jun and the others would definitely keep dragging him into PUBG.

After changing Internet cafés and turning on a computer, Jiang Siming opened League of Legends. But after playing several matches, nothing happened.

He played more than a dozen other games as well. Whether they were MOBA games, FPS shooters, or even online games, there was no abnormality at all.

He switched back to PUBG. After killing only four people, Jiang Siming discovered another musical-note fragment! It was gold again!

"Picked up 5,000 Yuan Fragment *1 (1/1). Fragment quantity complete. Can be used directly."

"So only PUBG gives these things? And they even give me money!"

This discovery thrilled Jiang Siming. He could get skills and money too. It was an incredible blessing he would never even have dared dream of.

He chose to use it, and a small stack of red banknotes immediately appeared on his desk. He quickly stuffed them into his pocket.

Jiang Siming was so excited that he looked like an idiot.

He immediately buried himself in PUBG and worked hard, spending the entire day immersed in the battle royale game.

As time passed, Jiang Siming gradually understood the probability of fragments dropping.

Fragments would refresh at various locations, but the odds were extremely low. After dozens of matches, Jiang Siming could only encounter one.

Another way to make them drop was by killing people! Fragments refreshed at a higher rate inside the enemies' loot boxes.

The more people he killed, the higher the chance of fragments dropping.

Winning the match could also yield fragments, and the odds were quite high. However, winning was not that simple. Although Jiang Siming's skills were excellent, there were too many players who hid and ambushed others. He often failed to react in time and was secretly killed.

Jiang Siming spent the entire afternoon in PUBG, obtaining a total of four fragments.

Two of them were Gold Fragments, all of them money, totaling ten thousand yuan.

The other two fragments were Voice Actor Skill and PUBG Driving Skill.

PUBG Driving Skill could also be used with just one fragment. As for Voice Actor Skill, Jiang Siming was still one fragment short.

He played until nighttime, and when he could no longer hold on, he finally logged off and went home to sleep.

While he had been endlessly farming fragments that afternoon, the streaming world had been stirred up by discussions about Jiang Siming's earlier sniping performance.

A famous entertainment streamer on Shark Platform, the newly crowned PUBG Sister Tuan Tuan with several million fans; the PUBG President on Mouya; an elite professional team; the immensely popular gaming genius Wei Shen; and his two capable teammates—

They had been wiped out by a random player who used only a Kar98k. When they watched the replay, Wei Shen and the others discovered that the Kar98k had been equipped with only a Red Dot Sight!

This discovery sparked an intense debate among the two teams' fans over whether Jiang Siming had been using hacks.
