Arknights, please stop going crazy over the streamer's operators.

After undergoing multiple security checks, Li Ji finally entered the villa area.

"As expected of an area where Yan Kingdom's elite troops gather, the conditions are so good!"

Li Ji and Jian sat on the bus, passing through one shady grove after another.

This bus was specifically used to pick up their team.

Even the bus itself has a special 'Rhodes Island' livery.

Every team here has a car like this.

It was used to transport the entire team home.

As a top-tier team, Li Ji's Rhodes Island naturally received the same treatment.

But when he arrived at the edge of the residential area, he saw a large group of people gathered in front of a huge board.

When Li Ji saw the words written on the board, he immediately thought of something interesting.

"Excuse me, could you please stop for a moment? I've suddenly seen something interesting..."

As Li Ji spoke, he stopped the driver and communicated with him.

The driver, also carrying luggage, headed to the nearest parking spot to wait for Li Ji.

Jian was still a little worried about Li Ji going alone, so he chose to go with him to that place.

Li Ji waved goodbye to the driver, and the words on the sign came back to mind.

"To encounter something so interesting so soon after arriving."

"A sniper special operations agent competition?"

"I really have to go and see this."

Chapter 63: Sniper Operator Competition

"Any brothers who haven't signed up yet! This is a rare opportunity, registration is free, and the prize money will be awarded on the spot!"

A clear female voice rang out in the crowd, but Li Ji couldn't see where she was.

It's 11 a.m. now, which is the busiest time in the residential area.

The streets were bustling with people, flowing among the various stalls.

Although the place is in a remote location, there are fresh ingredients available for each team to choose from every day.

Those who don't enjoy restaurant food also choose to buy ingredients during this time so they can cook for themselves.

Of course, in addition to these fresh ingredients delivered every morning.

All the shops in the other residential areas sell everything imaginable.

And they are all open 24 hours a day.

Even barbershops are no exception.

However, no one would actually go to a barbershop in the middle of the night and drag the barber out of bed to give them a haircut.

This free participation event with the chance to win prizes certainly sounds tempting.

Inevitably, some people will want to participate.

This made the already cramped square even more congested.

Even amidst the crowded and noisy throng, the girl continued to shout with all her might.

Only when Li Ji desperately squeezed his way into the middle of the crowd did he finally see what the girl looked like.

If she hadn't been standing on the stone bench, holding a megaphone and blaring away, Li Ji probably would have had to push his way forward even further.

Even though they squeezed in such a short distance, some people still complained.

"Stop pushing, can we please form a queue?"

"First come, first served. Do you think you'd have this chance if you waited in line?"

"Hey, what are you squeezing for?! You fucking... huh? Holy crap, Brother Feng!"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.

This made Li Ji, who had been burying himself in the crowd, suddenly stop and become too embarrassed to go any further.

He never imagined that while he was ducking in, he would run into fans.

"Damn it, it's because of you that our boss is obsessed with that liberator, isn't it!? What are you doing here at the seaside villa..."

Before Li Ji's fans could finish speaking, another burst of sharp screams erupted from outside the crowd.

"Aaaaaah! It's the mace! The mace is over there!"

"Holy crap, I'm seeing real people!"

"Can you give me your autograph, Sword God? I've liked you for a long time."

"Can I take a picture with you, Sword God? I'm a swordsman too!"

"Jian Shen! Jian Shen! Are you and Feng going to move here from now on?"

A crowd gathered noisily around the mace, but for some reason, everyone wisely kept a distance from it.

It's like the middle piece of pure land that is not covered by dust.

"If you want an autograph... you can line up."

Looking at the people around her, Jian, who had clearly seen this kind of scene many times before, still spoke in a calm voice.

That is, this one sentence, though not loud, was much more effective than some little girl with a megaphone.

A long queue quickly formed in the square, and even some uncles and aunts who were buying groceries lined up to ask for the mace's autograph.

The event venue, which was just packed with people, is now reduced to a few scattered individuals, along with Li Ji and Mei Long, who are staring at each other blankly.

"You! I finally managed to gather so many people, you...you have to pay me back!"

Mei Long stood next to Li Ji, puffing out her cheeks, and shouted, "Hey, you didn't do this on purpose, did you?!"

Li Ji waved his hand helplessly, making a helpless expression with his hands outstretched.

This situation has changed far too quickly.

He didn't even know whether he should feel sorry for Jian or thank him.

It was just that a fan's shout happened, which completely freed Li Ji from the struggle of squeezing through crowds.

"So how do you want me to compensate you? How about... I participate in your event? I can also help you promote it."

Li Ji's eyes darted around in their sockets, and he asked Mei Long with a look of grievance.

"Is this an online competition? If it's a competition... we shouldn't necessarily need to go to the Rift, right?"

"It's an online competition. We definitely can't let people go into the rift for this kind of competition. What if something unexpected happens?"

Mei Long first answered Li Ji's question, but then immediately asked:

"You can't be the one who wants to participate, can you? Aren't you the commander of a special forces team? Are you a sniper?"

Mei Long looked at Li Ji with a mixture of belief and doubt.

She was still a little skeptical of Li Ji's claims about "helping with publicity" and "wanting to participate."

She had indeed watched Wanfeng's live streams a few times; after all, he was one of the most popular streamers at the moment.

She also highly acknowledged the strength and quality of the opposing operators.

Those are all solid, hard-earned strengths and data; they are absolutely not powers obtained through any external force.

But Mei Long is, after all, a sniper operator, and most of her teams are snipers, so she wasn't as interested in a team like Wan Feng's, which mainly consists of melee and special attacks.

However, if Wanfeng really can participate in this event...

With Wanfeng's current popularity, she can more than make up for the popularity she just lost.

"Are you really not lying to me? But I remember you're a warlock, so how can you compare to us?"

"Of course I'm not a sniper, but there are quite a few snipers in my team, so it wouldn't be a bad thing to have a friendly match with you guys."

Hearing Mei Longdu's question, Li Ji smiled and replied.

"You guys? You're a special agent, how can your team have so many snipers?"

"I'm playing Guardian and Specialist now simply because I only have Guardian and Specialist... My other teammates are still out there and haven't returned yet."

Li Ji looked at Mei Long confidently, "Actually, I can do a little bit of everything."

"That's okay."

Mei Long was really out of options, so her team leader asked her to recruit some people today.

She had intended to use this method to accurately identify talent, but her plan was completely ruined by the streamer named Wanfeng in front of her.

Since the other party is also willing to participate, it's a good opportunity to ride on their popularity and use their platform to recruit some reliable remote operators.

"What are the requirements for helping us promote this?"

Mei Long knew that such a huge windfall wouldn't fall from the sky, especially since such a big streamer was willing to promote them.
