Kiyono Makoto took a deep breath. This time, instead of rushing in recklessly, he slowed down and quietly entered the shrine.

As soon as she walked in, Nishimiya Shoko suddenly reached out her right hand and nervously pinched Kiyono Makoto's ear.

"Ok?"

Noticing the girl's movements, Kiyono Makoto decisively stopped in his tracks.

Nishimiya quickly raised the sketchbook in his arms:

There are footsteps to the left front.

"...It must be the evil player who attacked the senior."

Kiyono Makoto narrowed his eyes, not acting rashly, but quietly retreating to temporarily avoid the evil players in the fog, and then, under Nishimiya Shoko's radar detection, quietly sneaking to the location designated by his senior.

"Senior, I've arrived. The weapons have been placed in the team's common area and can be retrieved at any time."

Once a formal team is formed, the team channel and the team's public space will be unlocked simultaneously.

The team channel goes without saying; it allows you to send messages using points, and aside from being a bit expensive, it's all advantages.

The team's shared space is also very useful. In the real world, Makoto Kiyono and his senior had tested it. They could store equipment in the team's shared space and then have another teammate retrieve it. Since it's a basic team ability, it's free.

Therefore, after infiltrating the designated location, Kiyono Makoto decisively stored the rapid-fire water gun in his backpack into the team space for his senior to use—that evil player was obviously a veteran, and the water gun alone might not be enough to defeat him, so Kiyono Makoto chose to continue infiltrating and take charge of the final blow.

"...Junior is ready."

Kasumigaoka Utaha received the message from the team channel and whispered the information to Futaba Rio.

Rio Futaba remained calm as she raised her hand and adjusted her glasses.

"Alright, let's start fishing."

From this moment on, the roles of hunter and prey are subtly reversed.

"...You're actually going to abandon me?"

"What can I do? Your leg is injured and you can't move. Carrying you along would only be a burden."

"I just saved you."

"One thing at a time, I just want to survive."

"..."

Although the fog had the eerie effect of swallowing up sound and light, the sounds of arguing still carried to a more distant place.

dong dong dong.

The dull sound of footsteps approached from afar.

A tall, malevolent player emerged from the mist, his eyes filled with cruelty and mockery:

"As expected of newbies, they started fighting amongst themselves so easily. I thought you guys could hold on a little longer."

The truth is that Nishimiya Shoko discovered the existence of the evil player in advance and secretly told Kiyono Makoto. Kiyono Makoto then told the senior in the team channel, so the senior and Futaba had an argument, successfully luring the evil player into a blind spot.

This wicked player thought he was there to harvest two newbies, but little did he know that he was the prey who had walked into the trap.

"Hey, I'm giving you a chance, let's fight!"

The evil player grinned maliciously.

"You shall now begin your duel. The one who survives will be allowed to leave the shrine..."

Rio Futaba remained expressionless, but suddenly threw a flashbang from her right hand hidden behind her back.

next second.

A dazzling burst of light suddenly erupted.

Caught off guard, the evil player's vision went blank for a moment, and he covered his eyes in pain.

at the same time.

The senior student quickly took out the rapid-fire water gun from the team's public channel and decisively pulled the trigger.

Puff puff puff!

Countless water bullets shot out.

Although the senior student didn't have the 'good luck' attribute, her water gun's attack speed was fast enough that various negative attributes were still triggered one after another.

You are experiencing dizziness...

You've been poisoned by pufferfish...

You are now vulnerable, taking an additional 50% damage...

Seeing his health rapidly decreasing, the evil player panicked.

What the hell?

What's with all those densely packed negative statuses?

Was he shot in the carotid artery?!

Faced with the mysterious and unknown power, the evil player was immediately filled with fear. He painfully activated the consumable control-removing item on his body, turned around, and scrambled to escape.

However, just as he turned around, a rope formed from flowing water appeared out of thin air and tripped him.

boom!

The evil player collapsed headfirst, ignoring the pain, only feeling the hairs on his body stand on end and his danger instincts screaming for him. He quickly propped himself up and, through a blur, saw a figure rushing towards him like lightning.

In the last second of consciousness, a long sword suddenly fell.

Blood splattered.

The headless body suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"Senior, your acting just now was too ordinary. I can only give you a passing grade."

Kiyono Makoto sheathed his katana and calmly looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"call……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha let out a long sigh of relief, completely at ease:

"I'm really sorry for the low score. I was originally planning to give you a special reward since you arrived in time, but it's not necessary now."

Makoto Kiyono: "I take back what I just said."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Tsk~ It's too late to regret it now."

As soon as she finished speaking, the senior suddenly noticed that the girl beside her was staring straight at her. Thinking that Futaba Rio was worried about becoming the next target, she earnestly explained:

"Futaba, don't worry, junior is a good person and would never hurt you."

Makoto Kiyono: "Actually, I'm a bad person."

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and looked up at her reproachfully: "Junior, don't scare people."

Rio Futaba gently shook her head, adjusted her glasses, and said in a subtle tone:

"That water gun... is my creation."

Chapter 50 Junior, do you need teammates?

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Kiyono Makoto was taken aback, looking at the girl in the white coat in surprise, a name flashing through his mind:

"^Science girl?"

Rio Futaba adjusted her glasses, her expression calm.

"it's me."

Kasumigaoka Utaha tilted her head and looked over, her eyes filled with curiosity:

"Junior, you two know each other?"

“The day before yesterday, I bought a weapon in the player trading area,” Kiyono Makoto explained, “It’s the water gun that my senior has.”

"Tsk~"

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and couldn't help but retort:

"I bumped into a trading partner from the forum in a dungeon, and she turned out to be a cute girl with huge breasts... Just as Eriri complained, my junior is actually the protagonist of some third-rate light novel, isn't he?"

Kiyono Makoto sighed and pressed his temples: "A work with this kind of plot is definitely a low-class novel."

"wrong."

Rio Futaba calmly looked over:

"The water gun I sold wasn't that powerful."

Kiyono Makoto paused for two seconds, then subtly revealed the truth:

"I am able to make simple modifications to weapons."

"Modify it?"

A glint flashed in Rio Futaba's eyes, then she lowered them without saying a word.

"Nishimiya-kun, you can come out now."

Kiyono Makoto returned to the corner and led the timid, deer-like girl out.

"Senior, this is Nishimiya. Thanks to her, we were able to successfully ambush her."

"Thank you, Nishimiya-kun."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes flickered as she softly thanked Nishimiya Shoko, then stepped to Kiyono Makoto's side, tiptoed slightly, and leaned close to the boy's ear, her breath warm and sweet, her tone unusually earnest:

"Junior, I suggest inviting Futaba to join the team."

"Ok?"

"When we were exchanging information just now, Futaba was a first-year student at our school. We're acquaintances in real life. Most importantly, she's super calm and rational, unlike some good-for-nothing rich girl who's a loser."

Hey, if Eriri hears this, she'll explode again!

Kiyono Makoto nodded slightly, naturally not refusing:
