The game has its own matchmaking system, which generally pairs Big Shot with Big Shot and average players with average players.
Even Ling Yi himself might think so.
In reality, the game's core matchmaking mechanism is primarily based on individual Karmic Luck.
To be precise, it should be: Protagonist with Protagonist, supporting characters with supporting characters, and extras with extras.
Later in the game, some outstanding individuals and Luck will inevitably emerge from among the ordinary players. They can become strong by opening treasure chests or obtaining rewards from winning battles.
The Marvel Universe will also undergo tremendous changes due to the introduction of the Game System.
But none of this matters to Ling Yi; he only needs to obtain the fragments to become stronger.
It's much simpler than other players' games.
Ling Yi searched for other players along the plane's flight path. The further south he went, the more players he encountered. After passing Lion City, Ling Yi killed six players, but none of them dropped any fragments.
Ling Yi was not in a hurry about this, as he had already guessed it.
At this moment, Ling Yi, dressed in a Jieli suit, was hidden on a hillside northeast of Puerto Paraiso, aiming his AWM with an 8x scope toward Puerto Paraiso.
Puerto Paraiso is the southernmost port town on the desert Map, and it has abundant resources.
Gunfire was blaring inside; it was quite a lively battle.
Novice players often appear clumsy due to unfamiliarity with controls Firearms.
Ling Yi was currently using an 8x scope to watch two players shooting at each other from behind cover.
Let alone Ling Yi, even Tony and Pietro, who were following Ling Yi's perspective, found it hard to watch; it was just too cringe-worthy.
"Accept your father's love, newbies."
Thump! Thump!
The AWM's unique gunshot sound is so beautiful.
"Player Ling Yi used an AWM to headshot and kill player Happy Hogan!"
"Player Ling Yi used an AWM to headshot and kill player Ned Leeds!"
At the same time, two fragments, one white and one blue, appeared on the boxes of the two individuals respectively.
"Wow, they're actually two major extras from Marvel."
Happy Hogan, Tony's bodyguard, is a very frequent and memorable supporting character in the Marvel.
Ned Leeds, Peter Parker's classmate in Spider-Man, the chubby extra.
Tony, following Ling Yi's perspective, twitched his lips. He also saw the kill notification, and Happy was among them. He'd give him extra training later; Happy was just too bad to watch.
Seeing Ling Yi run out of his hiding place and head straight for the box, Tony's eyes gleamed.
He had already discovered some game tips from Ling Yi, such as putting away weapons while Keep Running to increase speed.
When firing continuously, you need to press down on the muzzle to control the stray bullets.
While driving, you can switch positions at will, but you can only fire when you switch to a non-driver's seat...
Tony was a genius, with an extraordinary memory and comprehension and observation skills far exceeding those of ordinary people. At this moment, Tony couldn't wait to start the next game and test these skills.
Watching Ling Yi play the game was a pleasure; he wanted to see how many kills this kid could get after the game ended.
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained 1/1 of Happy Hogan. You have accumulated enough fragments. Would you like to use it?"
"Yes!"
"Congratulations, host, you have received $100,000. This reward will be deposited into your bank account in a legal and legitimate manner. Please feel free to use it."
"Nice, the system is really Big Shot. The white cesium fragment is an attribute fragment, the green cesium fragment is a superpower fragment, and the blue cesium fragment is a wealth fragment?"
Since Ling Yi is a complete replacement, there's no need to worry about his identity. However, the original owner of this body had a truly miserable life.
After being bullied and threatened at his home, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to leave the house and eventually starved to death there. That way of dying... is perfect.
Ling Yi was originally considering how to use his superpowers to make money in Hell's Kitchen, but now the Big Shot has directly solved all his basic living problems. Wow!
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained 1/1 of Ned Leeds. You have accumulated enough fragments. Would you like to use it now?"
"Yes!"
It's also an attribute fragment, but the bonus this fragment gives Ling Yi is very low, almost imperceptible.
Then, right in front of Tony and Pietro, Ling Yi showed off his feat of climbing onto the roof by riding on the door.
The two newbies were completely stunned.
A few minutes later, Ling Yi killed 5 more people, bringing his total to 14, with 31 people still remaining.
Right now, the second safe zone has spawned, and the safe zone happens to be right here in Puerto Paraiso.
Looking at the death notifications that kept appearing in the lower left corner, Ling Yi felt a pang of heartache.
A common mistake among newbies... ignoring the time it takes for the poison circle to close; these players weren't killed, they died from the poison circle.
The remaining number of players suddenly dropped to 19, with 18 players remaining besides Ling Yi.
Just then, Ling Yi saw two Ying Yi after the other through the electric fence of the poison circle into the safe zone.
One of the figures was particularly striking, with a glimpse of purple light that made Ling Yi's heart pound.
The other figure was a bald female player.
"No way!"
Ling Yi swallowed hard. The Ancient One and Thanos?
It's important to know that the characters in this game are proportionally recreated from real-life appearances, and who else in the Marvel could be a bald woman?
Who to kill first...? Of course, all of them.
Ling Yi first targeted the big guy with purple cesium, mainly because the guy's running style was too arrogant.
Thump!
"Player Ling Yi used an AWM to headshot and Thanos the Mad Titan!"
A huge fragment of white cesium appeared on the box belonging to this Marvel Big Shot. The soaring white cesium light made Ling Yi's heart almost stop.
Fortunately, only Ling Yi could see the fragments; otherwise, they would have attracted the attention of other players.
Thanos was eliminated because he was unfamiliar with the game and lacked vigilance.
Meanwhile, the bald female player on the other side immediately hid behind a Shitou after hearing the gunshot.
Ling Yi looked at the exposed toes through an 8x scope and couldn't help but laugh.
A common mistake among newbies is assuming that if they can't see you, you can't see them either.
Thump!
Thump!
Two consecutive shots, the AWM's terrifying damage, instantly eliminated him.
"Player Ling Yi used an AWM to kill player Ancient One!"
A huge green fragment, radiating a dazzling light, hovered above the box.
Ling Yi completely disregarded everything and jumped off the roof, not caring that he lost half his health bar, and headed straight for the two boxes.
Along the way, they encountered two other players who had also run out of the poison circle. However, although these two players had guns, they were out of bullets. Upon seeing Ling Yi Ling Yi, the two players immediately bypassed him.
Ling Yi headed straight for the green cesium fragment on the Ancient One's box. Compared to Thanos's attribute fragment, Ling Yi was more eager to see the Ancient One's power fragment.
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained 1/1 of the Ancient One's magical fragment. You have accumulated enough fragments to use directly. Do you wish to use the fragment?"
"Could you use it after ending the game?"
"Can!"
Ling Yi estimated that once this fragment was used, it would cause quite a stir and could very likely disrupt his normal gameplay.
After collecting the fragments of the Ancient One, Ling Yi headed straight for the fragments of Thanos.
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained 1/1 of Thanos the Mad Titan. The accumulated fragment number is sufficient and can be used directly. Do you wish to use the fragment?"
No! Use it after leaving the game.
Thanos's power—a power that even Hulk could handle—ignited Ling Yi's passion, yet he remained rational.
Perhaps Tony's fragmented intelligence played a crucial role, allowing Ling Yi to remain clear-headed despite his turbulent emotions.
If it were the old Ling Yi, he would probably be so happy he'd fainted by now.
In order to end the game as soon as possible, Ling Yi activated his berserk mode.
For distant targets, use the AWM; for closer targets, use the AK. Ling Yi charged straight through, ending the game before the third poison circle even appeared.
28 kills, great luck, chicken dinner tonight!
Exiting the game, Ling Yi leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and began to relax.
His game account received 33 messages in an instant, but Ling Yi wasn't in the mood to look at them right now.
After a long while, Ling Yi finally calmed down.
"Huff, huff... System, use the Ancient One's fragment."
"Boom..."
A flood of information rushed into Ling Yi's mind.
This is the Ancient One's magic. Although the Ancient One only showed a few spells in the movies, the Ancient One actually possessed far more than that. The real the Ancient One was far more powerful than portrayed in the movies.
At the same time, an immense magical Magic Power was bestowed upon Ling Yi.
Ling Yi's Divine Power was activated and rapidly expanded into a Spiritual Sense, strengthening his soul and boosting his intelligence.
The Ancient One lived for hundreds of years; the sheer terror of her accumulated Magic Power is simply beyond imagination.
At this moment, Ling Yi could be said to have instantly become a god, his strength directly reaching the Skyfather Level.
If it weren't for the fact that he was in an e-sports room, Ling Yi would definitely have been targeted by many Big Shot.
This power was so strong that Ling Yi trembled slightly and even found himself unable to control it for a moment.
Ling Yi only gained power, but not enlightenment; this is a sign that the power has gone out of control.
Fortunately, the fragments of the Ancient One also allowed Ling Yi to inherit a vast amount of Divine Power; otherwise, Ling Yi would have been directly turned into an idiot by the immense Magic Power at this moment.
It took Ling Yi a full three hours to fully recover. Following the magical knowledge in his mind, he began to organize and soothe his Magic Power, slowly withdrawing it back into his Spiritual Sense sea.
Ling Yi opened his eyes, still shaken.
"System, is there still any danger in absorbing the fragments?"
"Host, please rest assured that once the power within the fragment exceeds your Limit, a portion of it will be automatically sealed until you have complete control. The remaining power will then be released, and you will not be in any danger as a result."
"Wasn't that dangerous?" Ling Yi asked, speechless.
"The host will only feel slightly uncomfortable, but there will be no danger."
