Delta, Haotian breaches defenses: The dam is too deep!

Readers are hotly debating: What exactly happened? Join the discussion at Cola Novels.

The cannon's projectiles ripped through the night sky, four arcs converging almost simultaneously above the evacuation point. Then came Haotian's two grenades at their maximum upward angle, black spheres tumbling through the air before falling in a near-perfect parabola.

Inside the withdrawal point, the team that had just gone through four fierce battles stood still. The three of them were exhausted, sitting in front of their computers. Their backpacks were stuffed with weapons they had taken from their opponents, and their combat readiness was frighteningly high. At this moment, they just wanted to wait for the green light of withdrawal to appear, and then leave safely with the spoils of this round.

"There's no one left, there's really no one left."

"Ten seconds left, almost there."

Wei Long let out a long breath, his voice filled with relief at surviving a close call: "My hands were shaking during this game. I faced four teams. I've never played such an exciting game in my life."

"Yeah, my backpack is overflowing. I ate at least eight million this round. I need to go back and get a good night's sleep."

"They've withdrawn! Finally!!!"

However, before he could finish speaking...

boom!

The first hand cannon shell struck the very center of the extraction point, and the explosion instantly engulfed the three men. Then, the second, third, and fourth shells exploded in succession, turning the entire extraction point into a sea of ​​fire in an instant. Before they could even react, two grenades landed, and the shockwave from the explosions emptied all three men's health points to zero in a fraction of a second.

There was a full two seconds of silence in the voice channel.

"...What's going on?"

"I...I'm dead?"

"I'm dead too! How did I die? I didn't see anything!!"

Wei Long's voice was filled with disbelief. He quickly turned on the death replay and saw those arcs falling from the sky. The hand cannon bullets densely covered the entire extraction point, leaving no blind spots. He dodged to the left, and there were bullets to the left; he dodged to the right, and there were bullets to the right; he retreated, and there were explosions behind him as well. The entire extraction point seemed to have been precisely measured with a ruler, with every corner completely covered.

"What... what kind of game is this??"

"We didn't even have a chance to react!!!"

"Eight million...my eight million..."

A near-wailing cry came through the voice channel, followed by deathly silence.

The screen is crimson red.

The evacuation failed.

It's hard to imagine that after taking down four fully equipped teams, their hands were shaking from the effort, and now...

……

"The team was wiped out?"

"Holy crap!!!"

Chen Ze jumped up from his chair, staring at the notifications on the screen that the three teams had been wiped out. He couldn't believe what he had just done: "They're all dead?? Just like that, they're all dead??"

"Of course." Jiang Chen's lips curled up slightly, his tone calm as if he were stating something perfectly normal: "They need to evacuate, so they will definitely wait at the evacuation point. This is the core logic of this strategy—the other side is waiting at the evacuation point, and in the last few seconds, they will definitely lie prone at the evacuation point in order to successfully evacuate."

Chen Ze paused for a moment, then realized what was happening and burst out laughing: "That's right! They'll have to retreat eventually! If they want to retreat, then they have to stay at that spot, and that spot is completely covered by our equipment. There's no way to solve it!!"

"And the success rate is extremely high." Chen Ze added excitedly, "As long as you time it right, striking during the window of opportunity after they've taken their positions and before they leave, it's practically guaranteed to succeed."

Haotian, still reeling from the shock, stared at his spot, then at the evacuation point, muttering, "Wait, my angle... how could two grenades have covered the entire area? I never knew the Blue Screen could be used like that. This angle, this distance... how did you calculate that, brother?"

"We figured it out through testing."

Haotian paused for a moment and then said, "...You tried these things on the map after you ended your stream?"

Jiang Chen didn't answer, but just smiled faintly. How could he tell them that these locations were too commonplace in his previous life, but no one in this world had developed them yet?

The chat room was now completely in an uproar.

"My God!! What kind of insane move is this?! Bombing the extraction point?! Teacher Chen, what's wrong with your brain?!"

"I now seriously suspect that Teacher Chen doesn't sleep at all after his livestreams; he just spends all his time studying these things on the map by himself. Otherwise, how could he possibly know this angle?!"

"Yeah, yeah! Have you guys noticed that Teacher Chen's account assets have always been low? I feel like it's the price of endless trial and error. Every time he tries something new, he depletes his resources, which is why his assets have always been so small!"

"It's true! Teacher Chen is really using real money to research how to play for us. We're so touched!!"

"Teacher Chen's life after his livestream ends: sitting alone in front of the computer, staring at an empty map, throwing hand cannons over and over again, measuring the distance over and over again... This scene is so heartbreaking, hahaha!"

"Hahahaha!!! But it actually feels quite possible!!"

The three of them started eating the buns.

Three Sky-Swallowing Packs were scattered near the evacuation point, filled with a dazzling array of items: AWMs, fully modified M7s, and M14s with large drum magazines. Just the barrels alone were pried out in large quantities. Jiang Chen glanced at the total combat readiness value and his heart stirred slightly; the gains from this round were quite considerable.

"Ze, you're the boss, eat more." Jiang Chen waved his hand and threw the most valuable guns next to Chen Ze.

Chen Ze didn't stand on ceremony, after all, this was his live stream, his home turf, and he had also contributed today, so he took the opportunity to take more. In the end, Chen Ze brought in a total of ten million in revenue, while Haotian and Jiang Chen each received more than five million.

"This gameplay was so much fun!" Chen Ze sat back in his chair, his voice still full of lingering enjoyment. "There were absolutely no casualties, I didn't even fire a single bullet, and I could feel the despair of that team. This feeling was so exhilarating! This is the greatest joy I get from playing this game, hahaha!"

At this moment, Chen Ze glanced at the comments on the screen and realized that this kind of gameplay was extremely popular. At least the number of viewers in the live stream had exceeded 700,000. Although Jiang Chen's own popularity also contributed, this gameplay must have attracted a lot of traffic as well.

He turned to look at Jiang Chen and Haotian, a slow smile curving his lips. "Tonight, we'll focus on this: bombing the evacuation point, then tallying up how much wealth the three of us can take with us after ten rounds. What do you think?"

Haotian immediately perked up, "Great! This is interesting!"

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's keep our combat readiness in check then, it'll be a good opportunity to make some money."

Jiang Chen's account is currently too poor. If there's an opportunity to make money, he'll definitely make a killing.
