The rest of the way passed without encountering any enemies. After searching a few houses, they drove through the blue zone and headed straight for the Final Circle.
The player count showed nine people left. Minus Chen Zhao and Little Bamboo Shoot, that meant seven enemies.
Chen Zhao told Little Bamboo Shoot to run ten meters ahead, then jump left and right. The bigger the jumps, the better. The point was to make herself as conspicuous as possible!
Little Bamboo Shoot was horrified. "If I jump around, I'll get sniped! Let me lie down instead!"
Chen Zhao ignored her pleas and coldly raised the SLR Marksman Rifle in his hands. "If you don't go up there and jump around, I'll snipe you myself. Hurry up. Get over there and jump!"
Little Bamboo Shoot had no choice but to whimper as she went ahead and started jumping from side to side.
It was obvious she was jumping clumsily. She clearly hadn't practiced dodging bullets by jumping, and her game skills were terrible.
Chen Zhao crouched behind a large tree and focused on watching the woods and buildings ahead.
The reason Chen Zhao had agreed to bring Little Bamboo Shoot to the Final Circle was simple: he wanted to use her as bait. As a living target. He'd have Little Bamboo Shoot draw enemy fire in an exposed spot while he hid behind her and waited to reap the rewards.
It didn't matter if Little Bamboo Shoot got shot to pieces. Chen Zhao could use the chance to find the enemy who fired.
The viewers in the livestream caught on to Chen Zhao's plan and started roasting him:
Watermelon: "So you can actually pull off a move like this?"
I Am the Gun King: "The streamer's such a jerk! A real piece of work! But... I like it!"
Brother Chen Zhao Is So Handsome: "How can you treat a girl like this?! Using her as bait to draw fire is so cruel!"
Platinum Rabbit: "Little Bamboo Shoot has it so rough. Other streamers protect her at all costs—even if they die, they make sure she survives a few seconds longer. But this streamer doesn't care about being a gentleman at all! He just throws her out there as a target!"
Oreo and Lao Gan Ma: "Hahahahahaha, what a legendary moment! Little Bamboo Shoot's actually been forced to jump around in the Final Circle. She must be so annoyed!"
Chen Zhao waited for a long time, but nobody shot at Little Bamboo Shoot. He started to get anxious.
How could nobody shoot at such an obvious target?
Could they have figured out she was bait?
That couldn't be right, could it?
Just as Chen Zhao was puzzled, gunfire suddenly rang out from the southeast! It was an M416!
Bullets whizzed toward them and hit Little Bamboo Shoot!
Little Bamboo Shoot screamed and started running around, but she'd already taken several hits. How could she outrun bullets?
Her health bar plummeted, nearly reaching zero!
Little Bamboo Shoot cried out in frustration and panic. "It's over, it's over, it's over! I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die!"
Suddenly, Chen Zhao sprang to his feet and fired two quick shots from the SLR without using the scope!
The two 7.62 rounds sliced through the air and the trees, hitting a camper hidden in the grass three hundred meters away with pinpoint accuracy!
Two headshots in a row!
The camper didn't even have time to react before he was eliminated.
Little Bamboo Shoot suddenly realized that the M416 bullets chasing her had stopped. She quickly darted behind a tree and used a Medkit to restore her health. Her health bar rapidly climbed from a sliver to 75%. Then she drank an energy drink and slowly healed some more.
Chen Zhao's livestream chat got excited again:
Oreo and Lao Gan Ma: "Holy crap, that aim is insane! Iron-sight headshots? I'm gonna put some money in and tip the streamer!"
Rainy Alley Girl: "You're amazing, streamer! Here's a Hot Air Balloon!"
1Q84: "Really nice, really strong! If the report hadn't failed, I'd have sworn this was an aimbot! No more words—here's a tip!"
A flood of fans began sending tips. The individual amounts weren't much, but there were a lot of them. In just a few minutes, Chen Zhao had earned roughly another hundred yuan.
