Inside Origin Internet Cafe, the pastoral atmosphere of planting flowers and pulling weeds was utterly shattered at that moment.
When the game switched to the rooftop level, everyone was dumbfounded.
"A slope?"
Tang Ya looked at the rows of slanted tiled roofs and habitually planted her favorite Gatling Pea.
Rat-a-tat-tat!
The peas fired, then... smashed straight into the raised roof ridge in front of them.
"They can't hit?!" Tang Ya was shocked. "This game even takes ballistics and terrain obstructions into account?"

The Gargantuar was enormous, several times the size of an ordinary zombie. Its eyes glowed with savage red light, a strange little bamboo basket strapped to its back. In
