Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch Chapter 242 – You Actually Tried to Snipe Me?!

Chapter 242: Chapter 240: You Actually Tried to Snipe Me?!

The Metropolitan Battlefield was in chaos, but the small sofa on the Sky Carrier Bridge remained calm and peaceful.

Until –

“Mavis, did you just puncture my eardrum?”

Although Lincoln didn’t feel any pain, he clearly felt that the bamboo ear spoon in his ear had touched a very deep position, and then the sound he heard suddenly decreased by thirty or forty decibels!

His left ear was pressed against Mavis’s thigh, so he could only hear with his right ear, and now the right ear suddenly couldn’t hear clearly either!

The only explanation was – the eardrum was broken…

For other players, let alone a perforated eardrum, even if shrapnel was inserted into their ears, it wouldn’t affect their hearing.

The original intention of this design was to save processing power.

Players can see and hear and feel the beating of their hearts and the expansion of their lungs, but in fact, there is no gas exchange activity in their lungs.

More precisely, only obvious organ activities are simulated, while microscopic activities do not exist.

Lincoln alone enjoys unique treatment:

Although it doesn’t simulate to the level of microscopic exaggeration, various body organs are genuinely functioning normally.

This is Mavis’s special preference!

But this preference has now led to Mavis’s mistake being caught…

“Hmm-” Mavis shook her head and denied while speaking, “Not at all.”

Upon hearing this, Lincoln suddenly realized: the sound was normal again…

He turned his head to stare into Mavis’s eyes, trying to see if she would feel guilty.

As a result, Mavis not only didn’t blush, but also asked Lincoln strangely,

“Master, what are you looking at? Don’t move around!”

After saying that, she twisted his head back and picked up an aluminum alloy tuning fork, waving it in front of him – Lincoln couldn’t quite tell if she was threatening him.

Seeing that Lincoln didn’t continue to question, Mavis continued with her ear picking routine: picked up a small hammer, knocked the tuning fork, and slowly moved it near his ear.

Lincoln blinked and gave up digging deeper, continuing to enjoy the process in peace.

It wasn’t until Mavis suddenly stopped, pinched his face, and whispered to him, “Master, Master, they are about to meet!”

Lincoln quickly got up, rubbed his eyes subconsciously, and looked at the screen that Mavis had already adjusted.

Mavis, on the other hand, plunged into his arms and hugged him coquettishly.

“Good job, Mavis.” Lincoln stretched out his hand and rubbed her pink head as usual.

“Hehe.” Mavis smiled with satisfaction, her eyes narrowing.

As for the screen, Lance and Shuihua were indeed very close!

Most of Shuihua’s teammates were randomly matched solo players; by this time, most of them had died, and only three people were still cautiously moving forward.

After turning a corner, less than sixty meters away, Lance and a teammate also just turned the corner!

The two teams met face to face! A narrow confrontation!

At this distance, it’s just the right shooting distance. Both groups were startled and raised their guns without thinking!

As always, it is challenging to kill someone in a face-to-face shootout…

[Assassin Bloodline] automatically activates; bullets from sixty meters away can’t be intercepted, but fatal positions can be avoided under Bullet time.

So after both teams fired, they subconsciously charged forward to close the distance!

If she were alone, Shuihua would definitely turn and run.

But now that her teammates have also charged, Shuihua has no choice but to grit her teeth and go with them.

After sprinting twenty meters, a bullet hit her left shoulder, Shuihua’s body swayed, but she quickly stabilized and continued sprinting and shooting without changing her expression!

Only at this distance, she could see everything very clearly. At a glance, she saw Lance on the other side!

Originally, Lance had a cold face like a ruthless killer, mercilessly sweeping at the enemy.

However, upon realizing it was Shuihua on the other side, he subconsciously froze for a moment, and his first thought was— Did I just hit her?

Before he could figure it out, Shuihua on the other side had already given him an answer: Angrily raising her gun, she stood her ground and began spraying him with bullets without hesitation!

As she spraved, she zritted her teeth in frustration.

It’s one thing not to let me cling to your leg!

But you even sniped me?!!

You’re done for!

Wait for it! Once I’m eliminated, I’ll go offline and tell your uncle and aunt!

You’ll be eating leftovers tonight!!

—Although Shuihua was furious, she still had a clear understanding of her limits, not even thinking about trying to turn the tables.

Gaps closing quickly, in the blink of an eye, Shuihua’s faster teammates were already being shot down one after another.

Lance was too busy to worry about Shuihua’s teammates. He had to dodge her bullets while instinctively making difficult interceptions against his teammates shooting at Shuihua.

His teammate, puzzled, turned to look at Lance, but the next moment, a spinning bullet struck his teammate’s head.

Only slight blood spatter appeared, but the teammate’s reaction was as if he had been hit in the head with a big hammer. His head suddenly tilted, and he collapsed in a near-death state.

“Sniper!”

The two quickly reacted, and both Shuihua and Lance hurriedly dived for the low wall on the side of the road, avoiding the sniper’s line of sight.

While Shuihua made it smoothly, Lance found himself targeted as several people launched an attack at him simultaneously. Dodging the sniper’s view, he was shot in the thigh, shoulder, and abdomen in the blink of an eye!

By the time he reached the corner of the wall, he was in a critical condition.

The enemies in the distance still hadn’t given up. After finishing off Lance’s teammates with gunfire, bullets kept hitting the thin low wall he was leaning on, occasionally piercing through.

Lance had a “Serious injury” status that lasted for three minutes. He could barely move — only after disengaging from battle would the debuff rapidly disappear.

He felt somewhat desperate: He was probably going to die here today.

Even if he was lucky and avoided the bullets penetrating the low wall, it wouldn’t last much longer.

If it were his team, they would shower the enemy with bullets and kill them directly, after all, there were no shortage of bullets in the inner circle.

But Lance wouldn’t give up easily; even if it was extremely difficult to move, he would still struggle to crawl forward.

—If death was inevitable, he would rather give the points to Shuihua…

“This is too tragic.”

“He’s dead for sure! Will that female player on the other side kill him?” “Yeah, that female player just kept focusing on hitting Lance! It’s like she’s got a vendetta!”

As a celebrity professional player, Lance naturally had a large audience watching from the main pov, who now sighed one after another.

Lincoln and Xiaomeng could hardly bear to watch, it was just too many coincidences, and Shuihua was about to win mysteriously!

What does it mean to have divine assistance?!

But Shuihua didn’t open fire, in fact, as soon as the sniper appeared and Lance was shot, she stopped.

She tossed her gun behind her, crouched low, quickly approached Lance, grabbed his arm, and forcefully dragged him back.

Lance forgot to struggle, and stared blankly at Shuihua who was clenching her lips, using all her strength, trying to drag him away from the dangerous area.

Due to being too close, even though a bullet shot through the low wall and hit her in the right arm, Shuihua didn’t even blink. She just switched to using her left hand to pull Lance back with all her might.

“Ah, this…” Lincoln was a bit surprised.

At the same time, he seemed to understand why, at such a young age, Lance went on to become a celebrity professional player earning millions each year, yet still foolishly focused on Shuihua, his childhood friend.

“This silly lad, I guess he’s beyond redemption, huh?”

Lincoln pondered that if Shuihua were willing, Lance would probably have no chance of escaping.

The only problem was: Shuihua just wasn’t interested in Lance….
