"Huh? Me?"

Before even entering the game, Firefly pointed at herself with an incredulous expression.

Yes, it's you.

Silver Wolf nodded firmly.

"Neither of us has any cigarettes left, so you'll have to seal our cigarette supply."

Sera remained silent, and looked at Firefly with equal solemnity.

Just follow my instructions.

As Silver Wolf spoke, the game loaded.

"Oh oh!"

Firefly nodded obediently and followed in their footsteps.

Silver Wolf didn't hesitate and immediately opened the access card. Sera took the opportunity to inject a stamina booster and take a painkiller.

"Press and hold G to control the direction and generate smoke on the pipe."

As Silver Wolf spoke, he controlled his character to climb onto the box to prepare to cross the point. The next second after Silver Wolf spoke, Firefly controlled the smoke to block the pipe.

"Nice!"

Silver Wolf was overjoyed and climbed onto the pipe to cross the point.

You go first, I'll cover you.

Sera made a punctuation mark, and the character pointed a finger at the opposite side.

Firefly imitated Silver Wolf and started crossing the line, as 'firecrackers' of welcome rang out from all directions.

"Oh my gosh!"

Silver Wolf was just trying to run through the pipe to get to the point when bullets from all directions shattered his limbs, and he passionately added sound effects to the impact, but in the end he still managed to get through the pipe with a sliver of health.

Firefly wasn't so lucky; she was only able to run three-quarters of the way before being defeated, thanks to the smoke obscuring her path.

"Ah!"

Firefly stared wide-eyed at the scene, completely bewildered. She finally understood why the two were being so serious and why Silver Wolf had made such a comment.

Just as he was about to be finished off, Sera's calm voice came from the side.

"Don't panic, I'm here."

As she said, Sera rushed towards Firefly without hesitation, leaped down the pipe with Firefly on her back, and pressed the rescue button just before she lost her last bit of blood and was about to die.

The character's voice also came on at the right time.

"Arise, and make them pay the price!"

"That back jump was so cool!"

Silver Wolf, who was controlling his character to administer medicine, gave a thumbs up. Sera seemed to be quite skilled, which should relieve some of her pressure.

"First apply buffs, then use Firefly's long press of the V key to heal; we're on the bridge."

Sera hadn't lost much health, so she switched to her sniper rifle, used a bit of Firefly's healing, and ran to the corner to start observing.

"Come on, let them pay the price! They really hit us pretty hard just now~"

Silver Wolf was in good form because he was the first to cross the bridge. He switched to his sniper rifle and, after Sera scouted and called out the enemy's position, he took down one of them with a sidestep and a pre-aiming shot.

The other side was pretty stupid; they only covered the spot Sera had just exposed, and Silver Wolf took them away with a single shot.

Sera had already turned off the grenade after reporting the location and threw it towards the opposite side. Calculating the angle and timing was as easy as breathing for him.

The instant burst quickly finished off the person Silver Wolf had sniped and shattered the armor of his teammates who were trying to save him.

"It's fixed; I was trying to salvage a broken armor piece."

Sera's tone remained calm; after all, you can't panic when playing games, only by staying calm can you make good plays.

"Superior?"

Silver Wolf asked the question, but his hands didn't stop; he controlled his character to move closer. Sera followed Silver Wolf's movement, and Firefly followed behind them, nodding thoughtfully.

She was all too familiar with coordinated operations.

Silver Wolf glanced at her teammate icons, which weren't much different from her own moving character, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. These were exactly the teammates she wanted!

They quickly made their way to the vicinity of the central control bridge, and unsurprisingly, the sounds of rescue beeps and nail trimming rang out above them.

Can it generate electricity?

Silver Wolf realized that he wasn't as fast as Sera at shooting arrows, and fearing he might use ineffective items, so he asked Sera for advice.

"Able."

Before Silver Wolf could even ask, Sera had already mentally constructed a model based on the direction and volume of the sound. After calculating the time, she pressed the V key and activated the ricochet aiming direction, firing an arrow right between the three. The electric arrow's damage range enveloped all of them, and under the effect of her passive ability, it made the three visible.

Because the timing was perfect, the person who had just been rescued fell to the ground again. Silver Wolf clearly trusted Sera's skills, and after Sera said he could, he moved upwards. After the electric arrow revealed the three opponents, he switched to his sniper rifle and took down one of the remaining two.

Before the bullets hit, I ducked behind cover and switched to my rifle. After the bullets stopped, I peeked out and fired three shots to the head, securing the kill.

"Wipe out the team!"

Silver Wolf laughed heartily. She had never experienced such a well-coordinated match before. Joining the Stellaron Hunters was definitely one of the most logical choices she had ever made!

Sera was not blinded by joy and remained calmly analyzing the situation.

"My head has a 50-range hearing range, and there haven't been any shots fired on either side. They've probably activated their cards. Be careful, they might come and shoot us after they've finished looting."

"Firefly, grab a rifle first."

"Good."

Upon hearing this, Silver Wolf calmed down and switched to his sniper rifle, looking to both sides.

"You're right, both sides heard the gunshots and came to break up the fight. I'll hit the dorm, and you and Firefly will hit the sand?"

"OK."

Sera to sniper rifles, while Firefly steadily followed beside him, controlling her character.

Press the X key, hold down the left mouse button to fully charge up the shot, then quickly pull back. The bolt-action sniper bullet whizzed past his ear as expected, and the reconnaissance arrow also revealed the three figures.

"Firefly, are you good at using a sniper rifle?"

Sera calculated the three people's positions and asked, to which Firefly responded with a firm tone.

"No problem."

"Wait until I count to one, then fire with me. You get ready to aim at this side of the wall."

Sera pointed in the direction on the Firefly screen and started a countdown.

"Three, two, one!"

Bang!

Two bolt-action sniper shots rang out simultaneously, taking down two opponents at the same time.

"The last one, go!"

Sera fired a lightning arrow to block the path first, followed closely by Firefly, carrying the rifle she had just captured.

Effortlessly, the last man was beaten so badly by the two that he fled in terror and died under the Firefly Spear. Every action of the opponent was within Sera's calculations, as if the opponent were within Sera's Omniscient Domain.

Silver Wolf also wiped out the team in the same time. Just as the three were about to replenish their supplies, a reconnaissance arrow was shot from the core.

"Oh? Trying to take advantage of us being out of form right after the game?"

Silver Wolf raised an eyebrow and revealed a mocking smile.

"It's just a pity--"

Sera continued the conversation.

They miscalculated.

That's it!

Firefly was clearly full of energy and spoke loudly.

Silver Wolf had never felt so happy playing games before. Sure enough, there was a saying that was true. Silver Wolf secretly glanced at the two 'people' on his right. Friends are the best match for a game.

"Let's go! Let's crush them!"

The domineering words came from Silver Wolf's mouth, and with the three of them working together flawlessly, they secured the victory in less than 10 seconds from the start of the shooting to the end.
