Chapter 760
Douyu’s efficiency was commendable.
In half an hour, the top twenty fans from each of the four channels were in a private room that had been created by Douyu.
Liu Zilang, GodV, 17shou and NB211 were the first four to be invited in. They chatted in the YY channel as they waited.
Liu Zilang was obviously familiar with GodV since they were former teammates. However, he did not know 17shou and NB211 that well.
After chatting for a while, he found out that 17shou was somewhat introverted and did not speak much.
Meanwhile, NB211 was an old slicker. After chatting for a while, Liu Zilang felt like he had known him for a very long time.
After the week-long campaign of the “Four Heavenly Chicken Kings”, Liu Zilang and the other three streamers were the representatives of PUBG on Douyu’s streaming platform.
Their fanbase match had attracted countless viewers from all over the country. The bullet screen bustled with activity.
“Why do I think that Douyu set those four guys up?”
“I think so too. They’re all their followers! Looks like the Four Heavenly Chicken Kings will become the Four Heavenly Roast Chickens tonight.”
“Organizing a fanbase match so that their fans can gang up on them. Yup, it does look like a setup.”
“Heheh, isn’t this a good time for GodV to clear the ranks? Taking down the 4AM traitor in one shot? Internal conflict might break out later…”
“…”
As the channel’s bullet screen joked, the private room began to fill up with players.
After confirming that all players were present, the tournament organizers at Douyu started the fanbase match.
…
The start of the fanbase match.
Before the flight route was shown, Liu Zilang took a look at the map. “Where are we jumping?”
“Sosnovka,” GodV replied without hesitation.
17shou rubbed his chin. “I guess we’ll have to look at the flight route. Pochinki is a pretty good choice too.”
The airplane rolled in from beyond the horizon.
The four players looked at the map and realized that the flight route was nowhere near Sosnovka or Pochinki.
The airplane entered the mainland at seven o’clock near Primorsk, and it cut across the mainland in an almost horizontal flight path.
The only major resource points near the flight path were Quarry, Mylta and Mylta Power.
It was definitely not enough for the eighty-four people on the airplane.
Liu Zilang and the other three paused their discussion. Based on the flight route, it was hard to land at Pochinki and Sosnovka Military Base.
However, Sosnovka Military Base was the closer one of the two.
“I’ve heard that they’ve changed the speed at which you fall after you deploy your parachute in this patch. It’s going to be hard to drift far away. How about we dive straight down and then look for a vehicle to go to Sosnovka Military Base once we land?” GodV suggested.
“OK,” 17shou mumbled and nodded. “Sounds like a plan. But we’ll have to jump at different places. If we jump together and don’t find a car, we might end up having to roam the wilderness.”
“Understood, I’ll jump at the end of the West Bridge.” GodV nodded.
“I’ll jump at the Farm,” Liu Zilang said.
“I’ll jump at the East Bridge,” NB211 said.
If they had been playing with other players, they might not have split up their team that far apart. It would have been too easy for their fans to ‘group hug’ them to death one by one if that were the case.
Liu Zilang, GodV, 17shou and NB211 were all streamers known for their skills. Each one of them was a one-man squad on their own. Hence, they could handle ‘trivial’ situations like such.
At present, they were brimming with confidence.
Just as they were about to touch down on the ground, GodV suddenly thought of something and asked, “Right, all of you have set time delays in your streams, right?”
“Of course, which idiot wouldn’t set a time delay? It would be too easy for people to stream-snipe us if there was no delay!” NB211 laughed as he spoke, “I set a three-minute delay.”
“Mine is five minutes,” 17shou replied.
However, a small voice chimed in on the YY voice channel.
“Um… I think… I forgot to set a delay.”
GodV: …
17shou: …
NB211: …
This idiot was none other than Liu Zilang.
He had been streaming earlier in his channel, interacting with his followers. At that time, he did not have a time delay set because it would affect his interactions with his fans. After that, the thought of doing so slipped his mind…
The ensuing situation was all but understandable.
Just as Liu Zilang had finished speaking, the three other players who were already descending into low altitude lifted their heads to look above them.
They were stunned to see the number of parachutes that appeared on their left and right, as well as above them!
They were experienced in single-handedly facing down a squad of four players, but the current situation they were in was almost one against ten. The problem was not just facing an additional six players each.
It was at least a sixfold increase in difficulty.
Their teammates were scattered all over. If they were accidentally knocked out, it almost meant certain death!
The viewers in the live stream channel laughed out loud when they saw the sudden turn of events!
“Bahaha! I knew that the b*stard Vic would stir up some drama!”
“Hunted by ten people after touching down. The thought of it makes my scalp numb!”
“Now that’s a real ‘Battle Royale’ scenario… every time I see those b*stards playing, it looks more like a ‘Killing Spree’ game to them.”
“Alright, it looks like Vic is going to cure GodV and Shou of their Internet addiction.”
“He ought to sign himself up for electroshock therapy first.”
“…”
In the match, after he had finished speaking, Liu Zilang noticed that something was not quite right.
Earlier, the four of them had announced their landing positions over their team voice chat.
He remembered that they had announced where they were going to land. Their secrets had been exposed to their fans, and they would of course be hunting them down.
It was already too late to set the time delay.
Liu Zilang did not continue his way down to the Farm. Instead, he deployed his parachute immediately.
Whoosh!
After touching down and removing his parachute, he swiftly ran toward nearby houses.
He had not run too far when he heard the sound of a jeep’s engine coming from behind him.
Liu Zilang felt a shiver down his spine!
‘That’s too fast!’
All around him was barren land. He did not have to turn back to know that the jeep was headed at him.
He surveyed his surroundings and noticed a small roadside toilet diagonally in front of him.
He conjectured that the people who were chasing after him had not managed to find guns. Hence, he ran toward the small toilet in great strides.
The few fans on the jeep were excited when they saw Liu Zilang.
“Ha! I’ve finally caught you!”
“I don’t get it. This is my first time seeing a streamer not set a time delay during a fanbase match.”
“Say it! Are you patronizing us?”
“Eh? Looks like that guy is heading for the toilet!”
“Heheh, toilet play? I like it!”
“…”
The four players were filled with an inexplicable sense of excitement when they saw Liu Zilang running toward the toilet. They floored the gas pedal and gave chase.
Duang!
The jeep rammed into the small table placed near the toilet door, and it abruptly came to a halt.
Then, four dark-skinned men sporting afros hopped off the jeep. They sneaked toward the toilet while cackling sadistically.
All the viewers in the live stream channel stared with bulging eyes when they saw this scene. Their eyes were glued to the screen, and their breathing subconsciously became faster…
