Chapter 66 - King

Zuo Botangs pupils contracted abruptly, his eyebrows scrunching up.

The powerful shotgun was only three meters away from him, the b.u.t.t of the gun against Wu Jins shoulder, and the muzzle of the gun pointing straight at his abdomen

Just like an hour ago, when he had used a sniper rifle and aimed at Wu Jin.

Zuo Botang looked at the black muzzle of the gun, his gaze sweeping over Wei s.h.i.+, who was standing behind Wu Jin.

Jingyis team captain wasnt embarra.s.sed on the camera. Instead, his brows smoothed out, and he looked so calm that it didnt seem like he was about to be eliminated in a game that would affect his future. Instead, he made it seem like it was nothing but a trivial contest.

Wu Jin pulled the trigger.

Zuo Botang dodged instinctively, but his gaze went over Wu Jins shoulder and across the burning fire from the divine punishment to fall on his teammate Ming Yao. He nodded to him in encouragement.

In the distance, Ming Yao let out a cry of surprise, and in the next moment, a life-saving capsule popped out with a bang

Jingyi Entertainment, Zuo Botang was eliminated!

Wu Jin stilled.

The palm of his right hand was damp with sweat. It had only been two seconds between dodging and shooting, and almost all of it had been based on muscle memory and instinct. Even his expression had gone blank for a moment.

Zuo Botang shouldnt have been knocked down so easily based on his skills with evasive maneuvers, but

At this time, two cards, guns, and ammunition dropped down at the same time! Wu Jin no longer thought about it and instead rushed in to pick up the spoils.

Jingyis double c had collected a large number of cards during the corridor skirmishes and the previous instance. However, Zuo Botangs machine gun only had six bullets left, and there were only two cards here. It was obvious that hed given the most precious of the supplies to Ming Yao.

Of the two cards, one was a King of Swords, and one a Knight of Swords.

Wu Jin looked at the life-saving capsule in front of him and finally let out a breath of relief. His boiling blood surged through his arteries, and he couldnt restrain his excitement, subconsciously looking back towards Wei s.h.i.+

The mans goggles reflected the light, the flames seeming to press against the lenses. It wasnt possible to see his eyes clearly from Wu Jins point of view, but the knife-sharp lines of his chiseled face were majestic.

Their eyes met, and the big boss nodded at him lightly.

Wu Jin suddenly raised up his small round face. His smile couldnt be held back anymore and spread across his face; he wanted to turn around to pick up the supplies, but was reluctant to turn away, so he put on an act of distributing the supplies instead.

The mans aggressive scent burned hotter when the youth came close. Wu Jin was oblivious, his exposed skin carrying a healthy glow from the intense exercise. His bright eyes leapt with happiness, and it seemed that he was still immersed in the delight of fighting together.

It was just like what hed seen from the first instance. Their judgement, shooting, and circle of firepower were almost identical. Even if their line of fire was pulled away, the two of them could still cooperate and shoot to support each other without turning back to check on the other party.

Wu Jin huffed as he picked up the supplies and tossed them down between the two of them. He pretended to be discussing it seriously as he chattered non-stop, his small curls soft and perky. It seemed that the words k2018;happy happy happy, k2018;want praise, k2018;want morek2026; and so on were written in speech bubbles over his head.

Wei s.h.i.+s palms were a little itchy.

The camera that had been chasing after the two of them finally flew over to Ming Yao, and the fire blocked the view of the fixed camera.

He suddenly raised his hand and expressionlessly touched the boys soft head.

Wu Jin lifted his chin. His eyebrows and eyes curved with his smile, and his face that was covered in a thin layer of sweat glowed softly. The restless small curls hooked and scratched against the big bosss palm before nestling against his hand in satisfaction.

By the time the camera switched back to them, he was once again a well behaved, gentlemanly rabbit spirit.

Inside the Crosson Show directors studio.

Ying Xiangxiang looked at Ming Yao through the screen, I didnt think that Zuo Botang would be eliminated so early. 114/300, Zuo Botang is currently at risk of falling to C-levelunless Jingyi can get first place as a team and guarantee him a B.

However, there are too many teams gunning for the t.i.tle of champion in the third elimination match. Judging from the previous grade changes, Silver Thread Rolls Thin Fire, White Moonlights Caesar, and Dolmas Qin Jinbao were all demoted to B-level in the last game, so this team ranking is very important to them. Theres also Contestant Wei Yanhe was second in the second elimination match, so hell have to take the champions.h.i.+p in either this match or the next in order to maintain his S-level ranking.

Based on the current situation, Jingyi was the first amongst the major powers to have a member of their team eliminated, and it was also their captain. The task thats now on Ming Yaos shoulders will be more difficult than ever.

As can be seen on screen, Ming Yaos play style has changed. Even if he has all of Jingyis abundant supplies, he chose not to avenge his captain and instead focused on defense. Hes avoiding Wu Jin and Wei s.h.i.+s line of fire.

Blood Pigeon nodded from the side, His biggest responsibility now is to bring the supplies to his other two teammates, not to get revenge.

Ying Xiangxiang sighed emotionally, Its really difficult for Ming Yao to hide, but even just based on his positioning, its already more accurate than it had been just now. After fighting in three games as a vice-captain, he now needs to play like the main c.

I remember that theres a sayingwhen you feel relaxed, it must mean that theres someone behind you who is supporting you in silence. Zuo Botangs elimination is an opportunity for Ming Yao to grow up However, if Zuo Botang had dodged in time, the situation might not be like this now. Unfortunately

Blood Pigeon suddenly looked over at the life-saving capsule in the camera, and then glanced at Wei s.h.i.+. Finally, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Ming Yao, his eyes flickering as he interrupted Ying Xiangxiangs words, Zuo Botang is a very admirable captain.

The live broadcast switched back to Wu Jins group again.

The scrolling comments were densely packed, and the atmosphere was pushed to the peak after both men pulled out their guns at the same time.

The communication between the two people in this group was less than any other pair of Lovers, but their cooperation was still very in sync after they seized the upper ground that had originally belonged to Jingyi Entertainment.

Wu Jin took up the a.s.sault position and was fearless as he stormed the Garden of Eden. Beneath the ceiling lights, he looked like a vigorous baby leopardthe type that had been raised with a keeper.

In half an hour of gun skirmishes, he killed two more players who belonged to the same team and quickly s.n.a.t.c.hed up the supplies before handing them over to his teammate.

Wei s.h.i.+ stood behind him, his sniper rifle fast and accurate. Their score, which had originally been suppressed to the bottom, increased steadily. After the fire from the divine punishment landed five times, it no longer visited their group. Wei s.h.i.+ changed the target of his muzzle and started to pave the way for Wu Jin.

The two peoples line of fire overlapped and covered for each other, and there was no gap in their tacit cooperation. There were several times when the audience thought that the two of them would open their mouths to discuss thingsbut unexpectedly, they only exchanged a glance and were done.

When the results of the instance were basically determined, even though there were countless viewers calling out that Beauty is pleasing to the eye; please give a renewal fee to extend their camera time by 1 minute, the director still mercilessly moved the camera away.

However, the discussion on the scrolling comments suddenly heated up, and relevant forum threads were also being quietly built up.

The wildest Eve, the coolest Adamhold the new CP flag up high!!

Wait a minute, is this about cooperation? Is this a survival show? Why are there sparks from shooting a gun?! My G.o.d, what kind of logic is this?! I just regret that these two people speak too little!! Their gazes met a good many times, and I even want to start smiling like an auntie as an audience member, but you end up not talking? Not saying anything?!

Im new here! I came over from the theme song on the Star Blog, a b.u.mpkin here who hasnt seen any survival showsmay I ask if contestants are usually like this when they cooperate? Why is it so sweet that I suddenly want to vomit blood

My G.o.d! I thought I was the only one who felt that way! These two are clearly only relying on brain waves to communicate, and that moment when their eyes meet is too perfect. No, wait, Im Little Witchs mama fan ahhhh!!! Son, youre still young, youre only nine years old!

On the floor begging for Wei s.h.i.+s contestant information aooo! Ive never seen him before?! Just now, I went to the voting channel to take a looktoo tragic, hes powerful and good looking, but he only got one vote? One vote?! WTF?

Hahahaha a one vote contestant ahahaha! That voter should be able to die happy, right? They didnt need to toss money at it and were still able to stand hand in hand with Contestant Wei!

Thin Witch CP girl pa.s.sing by, I just want to watch you guys push them into a CP

Not a CP pusher, microscope girl pa.s.sing by. Click into the site for the full broadcast, at 4h16min, Contestant Wei tosses over the gun, and the camera is to the left behind Little Witch. You can see that his cheekbones moved16 pixels, and he recovered after 65 frames (visualize that my son smiled a little). 4h36min, the two were splitting up supplies, and the camera switched backcompared to 4h35min, Little Witchs cheek and ear, the original color swatch was #F8D0CB, followed by #D59685. The red levels increase slightly, though its not obviousLittle Witch blushed.

There was silence.

More silence.

A moment later, the comments below the post exploded.

Oh my G.o.d, this skill, 6666!!! Kneeling for the big boss!

I cant tell from the camera at all! Little Witch smiled? He even blushed? Son, whats the matter with you ahhhhh, are you getting seduced away by Contestant Wei? Hes not cute and lively at all! Your preferences for choosing a partner are all messed up!

Laughing and crying as I

offer up tea

for the big boss! I think that it should be Little Witch being shy XD, a two month mama fan wants to express that Little Witch is soft towards everyone. He was probably given a scare by this match up in The Lovers instance. Smiling and blus.h.i.+ng is all reasonable, after all, my son is a little silly and dazed when not playing in the compet.i.tions. However, this CP is tasty. Sitting here waiting for more!

Any survival show CP is good as long as theyre tasty! Jingyi/Thin Witch/Wei ALL/ALL Wu/Two Fools/Zuo Lin are all good! I even watch Wei Yan X Program Producer when Im in the mood!! By the way, secretly getting all flushed by this Unknown Trainee X Heartthrob Stage C-position ahhhh!

Crosson Main Dancer X Too-dest.i.tute-to-give-the-program-money Poor Man is also tasty!

Suddenly excited! My smile is turning evil! Im not a microscope big boss, but I can provide a clueContestant Wei selected Little Witch within 3 seconds after coming through the door, right? How many years do you have to be single for to have this kind of hand speed? Hes clearly so cold on the surface, but he mustve been paying attention to Little Witch in private for a long time! His single pick has been exposed!!

There was a lot of excitement and noise off-camera.

On the screen, the Lovers card instance was finally coming to the end.

With Wu Jin and Wei s.h.i.+ clearing the instance out quickly, the instance advanced faster than expected.

20 minutes later, Wu Jin killed three people, and Wei s.h.i.+ killed another. During the fierce battle, some trainees were eliminated by the divine punishment, and the number of people matched the number needed to pa.s.s the instance. The exit for the instance finally opened up.

Having gained experience from the last time the instance opened, almost all of the trainees ran outside like their lives depended on it. Without the restriction of the instance rules, the lovers who had been cautiously cooperating with each other suddenly experienced the awkward predicament of fleeing separately when calamity was about to strike.

Ming Yao of Jingyi Entertainment escaped at the fastest speed.

Ying Xiangxiangs guess had been accurate. He was much more careful now that Zuo Botang had been eliminated. Wu Jin stood on the elevated platform and shot at him several times, but the other side was always able to find shelter and make his way out unscathed.

Wu Jin didnt continue the pursuit. He had the same level of strength as Ming Yao, and he didnt want to go so far as to rely on the big bosss strength to kill. As long as both of them remained in the Crosson Show, there would come a day when they could really have a fight out in the open.

In the center of the instance, on the elevated platform.

The partnering rule disappeared, and Wu Jins terminal rang, indicating that there was less than 100 seconds left before their cooperation was considered an illegal team.

The Garden of Eden beneath their feet was a mess, but from the elevated platform up, the holy light, the sculpture, and the birds made it seem like a harmonious piece of heaven.

The two of them combined had collected a lot of supplies. Wu Jin had finally gotten a big upgrade, and even the wound on his right arm that had been covered by a simple bandage had now been sprayed with a healing solutionsome contestant had probably obtained it with a card from the cups suit, then been attacked by Zuo Botang, and the item finally fell into Wu Jins hands.

Wu Jin took advantage of a column and stood with his back to the camera. He was happily dividing up the guns on the ground, one to the left, then one to the right, and so on.

Wei s.h.i.+ stood against a pillar with his arms crossed over his chest, watching as Wu Jin delightedly split up the carrots and radishes.

Soon after, the rabbit spirit had finished splitting up the vegetables and held up an armful of guns of different lengths, handing them over like he was holding out a bouquet of flowers.

Wei s.h.i.+ picked out two of them, his gaze dropping down to the cards theyd taken from Jingyi.

Minor arcana, the King of Swords and Knight of Swords.

Wu Jin finished selecting guns, then adjusted the strap and slung them messily over his back. After taking two steps, he felt that they were too heavy and reluctantly tossed down two of them. At a glance, he seemed like a rich landlords silly son.

Then, he reached out for the Knight of Swords card without thinking

Wei s.h.i.+ suddenly reached out and held down the card, gesturing for Wu Jin to take the King of Swords and leave the Knight of Swords for him.

Wu Jin was surprised, then nodded obediently.

Speculating from the previous time theyd exchanged cards, there wasnt any difference between the minor arcana in the same suit when they traded for supplies at the materials box. The box would only spit out the equipment the players needed the most, so he didnt delve deeply into the ranking of the card.

The knight was a symbol of battle and loyalty. They were heroic defenders of their king.

There was 40 seconds left before their team formation was considered illegal.

The youth had his weapons on his back and was about to leave the platform. He looked back and raised his head, Big brother, Im leaving!

The man nodded. His gun-callused finger stretched out to straighten the strap of one of the guns Wu Jin hadnt been able to bear throwing out, like sorting out the decorative ribbons for a young king before his coronation, Mm. Bring back first place.

Go fight for your crown.

Juurensha: Awww, stalwart protector of the young upstart king.

xiin: i just imagine a big pile of oversized carrots and radishes on the floor ahhhh Little Witch youre so cute~
