Chapter 1458: Chicken Dinner

“Sister Maple is coming. Why don’t we queue up together?” Water Fairy suggested.

Fancy immediately felt his face heat up. He felt personally attacked by the difference in treatment and asserted jokingly, “Water Fairy, that’s not fair – why have you allowed the Canine King to queue up with you but not me?”

Water Fairy paused for a second then said, “Because it’s your fault for not being a girl.”

Unforgettable Maple was speechless. The reason given by Water Fairy was quite valid.

What could Fancy say? He wasn’t an idiot; it was obvious that he was being excluded. He thought for a second before saying, “This Lu Li guy is only playing his second game and is already performing so well. Canine King, why don’t you have a contest with him? By the way, Lu Li is also Water Fairy’s boyfriend.”

“What is there to say about a couple in an illicit love affair? Lu Li is talented; I would never want to compete with him. Plus, Lu Li isn’t someone careless. It is definitely not the case that anyone can compete with him.”

Unforgettable Maple was an astute and manipulative person, so Fancy wanted to use him as a weapon against Lu Li. Knowing this, Unforgettable Maple didn’t want to continue this charade as antagonising Lu Li had no benefit.

Additionally, there seemed to be a hidden agenda behind Fancy’s words. It was obvious that he had a huge crush on Water Fairy. It would have been fine if it was just a joke or typical banter. However, Unforgettable Maple couldn’t bear with the fact that Fancy wanted to steal Lu Li’s girlfriend. He thought that Fancy might have wanted a battle to the death.

Everyone felt comfortable jokingly calling Unforgettable Maple ‘Sister Maple’. This was because everyone knew he had a good temper. Fancy had crossed the line for wanting Unforgettable Maple to offend someone, especially someone he respected. Although he had a good temper, even he had his limits. That was why he commented that not everyone had the qualifications to compete with Lu Li.

“Haha, if you already have enough people, then I’ll leave,” Fancy fumed. He wanted to find a way to leave the conversation with minimal embarrassment. His attempt, however, was unfortunately met with silence.

In every game, there was bound to be people who play well, but these people were not considered threats by real gamers. However, if you were an expert in a variety of different games and was able to master different games, it meant that you had truly mastered the Art of Gaming.

Although Lu Li had completely dominated the gaming field during the course of Dawn, his performance during Survival and Escape was also magnificent.

“Boom!”

“There are eight left. Twenty seconds until the poisonous circle closes in. Keep moving forward.”

Lu Li pulled the trigger, killing two players. The teammates of the fallen were cowards that had no intentions of saving them.

“There are people running to the left of the circle.”

Water Fairy couldn’t focus much on the live streaming room; all her attention was directed towards the battlefield. The safe area was already reduced to a miniscule geographical size.

Both Lu Li and the Water Fairy did not know that there were a lot of streamers in their room.

Unforgettable Maple seemed to have caused a commotion in the chat room, because all the high-level players that were online came to witness the Lu Li’s stellar performance in Survival and Escape.

“Is this the second round?” Midnight Ghost belonged, within Dawn, to the Eternal Kingdom and was also a great Survival and Escape player.

“I only remember playing my first game and just losing. And I don’t remember much of the second game,” Egg Cow recalled.

“Players said that Lu Li killed six in his first round,” Unforgettable Maple mentioned.

“That’s impressive. How are we going to battle Water Fairy’s team in the future?” Hornet’s Nest was very worried. He and Lucky Southern Persian were both trying to survive in Survival and Escape, but they weren’t playing that well. When fighting against Water Fairy and Star Baby as a team, they had a 50/50 chance of winning or losing. However, now that Lu Li had replaced Star Baby, and given how talented Lu Li is, they had no chance of competing.

“How could they see who is crawling inside the grass area, and use only one shot to kill them?” Hornet’s Nest enviously complained.

“The stock was not well hidden. You couldn’t see the obvious so it’s on you for dying,” Unforgettable Maple retorted.

“Sister Maple, eat a chicken once and you will get a level 60 Dark Gold Armor,” Hornet’s Nest said as he hugged his legs tightly. There was no other option; it was his fault for not performing as well as the other players. Sacrificing some equipment was better than sacrificing his reputation, not that there was much of a reputation to even salvage.

“Hehe, level 60 Dark Gold Armor. It’s a myth. It’s not that easy to eat chicken dinner. I fought six or seven times yesterday and only won once. I was playing with my brother too,” Unforgettable Maple responded in a nonchalant manner.

“I’ll go find Lu Li in a moment. He’s about to lose his title of the King of Guns,” Hornet’s Nest said.

On Lu Li’s side, there were only five people remaining. This meant that other than him and Water Fairy, there were only three others still alive. There was a wheat field, and everyone was hiding within it by proning.

“I’ll let you wear my clothes,” Water Fairy offered. She was referring to the lucky clothes.

“No, that’s unnecessary. You should wear it and prone without moving. Watch win as we the chicken dinner,” Lu Li said confidently. Although he became more confident with each game, he was also slightly regretful. He could have made more money if he played and live-streamed Survival and Escape compared to Dawn. Then, he could use that money to save his little sister.

However, in his previous life, if he had played Survival and Escape rather than Dawn, then he would not have been able to succeed in the latter. Survival and Escape lacked the difficulty of Dawn.

Water Fairy was proned while Lu Li switched to an automatic. He then used the red laser to scan around the field and found a target. He fired, and blood splattered everywhere.

“There are two left but I’m not sure whether they are on the same team. It is fortunate that the circle is still on our side,” Lu Li said as he moved to a different position. He had just fired so his existing position was no longer safe.

Such circumstances were very difficult to manage. The safe zone had already reduced to the size of a palm. Everyone was virtually face to face. Because of the close range, accuracy was less of an issue. Now it was a psychological test of nerves.

“You watch the right and I’ll watch the left. I suspect they are about to enter the safe zone.”

Lu Li was no longer focused on ambushing the enemies. At such a close range, there was not much point.

“I’m a bit nervous but why don’t I charge ahead to have a look?” Water Fairy was slightly impatient; they only needed to kill two more before they could win. However, she never had good results, because she played too aggressively. That being said, Star Baby was even more aggressive than her.

Such a game required people who could handle the pressure. If you wanted to succeed, sometimes you only needed to kill one, two or even none, and you could still claim victory. ”

If you want to charge ahead, then charge ahead,” Lu Li conceded.

Since he couldn’t control her, he might as well let her charge ahead and test it. To put it darkly, if Water Fairy charged ahead, she could be used as bait. If others attacked her, they would reveal their own positions.

If Water Fairy jumped, she would be able to spray her gun into the field.

And with some luck, she actually downed an enemy.

“How did she discover him?” Hornet’s Nest was flabbergasted.

“I also actually can’t understand it!” Midnight Ghost was shocked. The audience could see Water Fairy’s perspective, and there was no way she could have discovered the hidden enemies.

“It was a fluke!” Unforgettable Maple laughed.

Those hiding in the field did not make any mistakes. Even if you were the Canine King, there was nothing you could have done to survive that.

The remaining players fired against Water Fairy. He didn’t raise his body, because he knew that if he did so, he would be subject to the attack of two players. One of his concerns was the person carrying the M249. Although such a weapon didn’t have high damage, it contained a lot of bullets— 2.5 times the ammo capacity of an average gun.

Lu Li heard the gun shot, and immediately started shooting at the direction of the sound

Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner!

The pair finally won their battle.

Water Fairy’s live broadcasting channel views had already exceeded the previous record. It was already attracting famous streamers, and such a gathering was rare in the gaming world.
