Girls und War

At this time, Simon had already been stuck in an area where Chunxiang had a poor field of vision.

Down from this ridge, about fifty or sixty meters away from Chunxiang, is a rocky area with many shelters.

Simon relied on various shelters to get closer to Chunxiang. Chunxiang had no choice but to adjust her observation angle as much as possible and constantly put herself in an advantageous attacking position.

Until Simon came to a position about ten meters in front of Chunxiang.

At this distance, their faces were practically touching, and they could even hear each other's heavy breathing due to the thin air.

After a short rest, Simon pulled out the pistol and dagger from his back and began to prepare for close combat.

Chunxiang also replaced the high-precision sniper in her hand with a semi-automatic sniper rifle in the airdrop bag.

She originally thought that she wouldn't be able to use the gun in such an extremely wide field of view, but she never expected that she would end up in the situation she had tried so hard to avoid.

Simon hid behind a rock and counted to three silently, then took a small tentative step to the side.

Haruka reacted quickly and pulled the trigger almost immediately.

But Simon's purpose was not there at all. Instead, he turned around very quickly, leaned out from the other side of the rock, and fired two shots at Chunxiang.

These two shots were not fired with the intention of killing, but purely for suppression, so they had almost no accuracy.

But Chunxiang couldn't bear it and shrank back under the pressure.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Simon took a few steps forward without hesitation, climbing up the ridge while firing.

Chunxiang had no choice but to continue retreating cautiously, hiding behind the cover and preparing to launch a close-range counterattack shot at Simon.

When the bullets in Simon's pistol were used up in the continuous suppressing shooting, Chunxiang leaned out without hesitation and started shooting in that direction.

But Simon had already shrunk behind a nearby rock, so Chunxiang didn't catch Simon's mistake at all.

At the same time, Chunxiang did not dare to stop her suppressing shooting, because although Simon was hiding behind the stone, he kept making tentative moves, as if he was about to rush out from behind the stone at any time.

At such a close distance, Chunxiang didn't dare to gamble on her reaction speed, so she could only use fire suppression to delay the enemy and buy time to retreat.

When she emptied a magazine of bullets, Simon rushed out extremely quickly and strode towards Chunxiang's hiding place.

However, the moment Simon jumped onto the ridgeline, he saw a flash of cold light before his eyes, and a blade was already in front of him.

Simon was shocked. She didn't expect Chunxiang to retreat instead of advance, and ambushed her here.

But unfortunately, Chunxiang's knife was too weak and slow, so Simon dodged it by turning sideways.

Chunxiang then clumsily slashed several times, but missed Simon.

Simon quickly saw Chunxiang's level, so he quickly raised his hand and grabbed her arm holding the knife.

Before Chunxiang could react, he stumbled again, stepped back, and pulled, causing Chunxiang to fall to the ground.

Xia Shu shook his head at the difference in physical skills.

Simon didn't hesitate and just swung his knife, killing Chunxiang cleanly and neatly.

So Chunxiang died under Simon's knife in great frustration.

At this moment, the audience outside the stadium sighed helplessly. It seemed that they all felt sorry for Chunxiang.

He clearly had such a good opportunity and the championship was within his grasp, but he died miserably on the eve of the championship because he failed the physical training.

No matter how you think about it, it doesn't seem worth it.

At the same time, Simon also sighed softly.

One of the most advantageous competitors was eliminated by himself first.

Then next...

But before she could react, a gunshot suddenly rang out from not far behind her, hitting her side.

Simon moved his body sideways with extreme vigilance, subconsciously aimed in that direction, and pulled the trigger.

Coincidentally, the shot hit Anna who was standing more than a hundred meters away.

Anna swayed, her exhausted body staggered, and then she fell to the ground, dead.

All this happened too suddenly and too unexpectedly.

It’s like studying all night before an exam, only to have the exam the next day suddenly announced to be open-book.

Simon couldn't understand why Anna just came here and gave it away for free.

But if you pay attention to other spectators in the stadium, you will actually know why.

Because Anna's luck is not very good either.

The previous avalanche happened to sweep her up.

She had almost given her all to escape from the avalanche.

It was a miracle that he could come to Simon.

With multiple fractures all over her body, she knew she couldn't hold on much longer, so she took a gamble and decided to come here and take a shot.

But luck seemed to be on Simon's side, and the shot ultimately missed the target.

So, Simon won the championship of this year's competition in such a dramatic way.

893. A Frustrated Corner of the Arena

As the champion of the sniper competition was decided, cheers immediately broke out in the arena.

Although it is already very late, there are still many spectators staying at the scene, and it seems that they are ready for the champion to be decided soon.

To be honest, the champion of this competition was decided quite early.

Normally, the champion is decided on the afternoon of the seventh day or even the morning of the eighth day.

Today is only the first half of the sixth day, and many viewers did not expect that the champion would be announced right away.

At this time, the avatar of Simon, the champion of this sniper competition, was displayed on the main stage.

The players ran into the competition room again, carried Simon out, and ran around the field, just like Xia Shu did last year.

There were also games going on in other venues at this time, and they stopped for a moment when they heard the noise.

That is, the group of people playing chess in the space war arena looked up, their expressions did not change, and they continued their games.

As the news slowly spread, the audience outside the venue who were planning to watch the results tomorrow gradually flocked into the live broadcast room.

Xia Shu looked at the excited girls on the field, and his expression gradually softened.

Fake sleep asked, "Aren't you going to celebrate with them?"

"Me?" Xia Shu said with a smile, "I didn't even participate in the competition."

When he heard this, he leaned over and whispered something in her ear.

Xia Shu hesitated for a moment, nodded, said goodbye to the audience, then left the studio and headed to the stadium.

After arriving at the stadium, Simon was carried onto the main stage by everyone, wearing a golden cape and accepting the post-match interview from the host.

Natsuki looked around and found Haruka in the crowd. He walked over, patted her shoulder, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Haruka turned around and saw that it was Xia Shu. She showed a surprised expression and said with a smile, "Why are you here? Didn't you say you were broadcasting live?"

Xia Shu tilted his head, looked at her and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to get over this and won't be able to think straight for a while."

Chunxiang pushed her and said with a helpless smile, "Don't give me that. This isn't the first time I've experienced this kind of situation."

Then he looked at Simon on the stage with a calm expression.

Xia Shu remained silent and secretly glanced at Haruka's profile.

She could see envy and a hint of helplessness in Chunxiang's eyes.

Once upon a time, Chunxiang stood on the stage like this, watching one champion after another pass by her.

Time and time again, I never stood up there even once.

Standing in Haruka's perspective, Natsuki could understand the unspeakable feeling of loss.

Perhaps for her, winning the championship has become the most anticipated thing in her career.

Because it is so close and she longs for it so much, she chases after that unattainable dream again and again.

If she really never won a championship and retired in disgrace, then Chunxiang would probably never be able to let it go for the rest of her life.

Thinking of this, Xia Shu reached out and put his arms around Haruka's shoulders, holding them tightly, as if giving her strength.

Haruka turned around and glanced at Natsuki.

Then, with a smile on his face, he and Xia Shu looked at Simon on the stage.

This scene was also captured and photographed by a photographer not far away.

It was later included in the classic photography of previous competitions and became a classic scene of the war zone competition.

Afterwards, the interview ended and Simon walked down the stage, looking at the leaderboard above the main stage with the other contestants.

At this time, the backstage had completed the scoring of the competition, and displayed the final ranking of the one hundred contestants under the concerned gaze of the contestants.

What everyone cares about most is the top ten rankings, so everyone turns their attention to the top ten places on the list.

The first one is Simon, there is no doubt about that.

Following closely behind are Chunxiang in second place and Anna in third place.

Seeing this, everyone showed an expression of "as expected".

Although Anna died a little later than Chunxiang this time, Chunxiang's total score was still slightly higher.

Putting aside those jokes that made fun of her, Chunxiang was indeed just one step away from winning the championship this time.

If it weren't for the avalanche, there was a high probability that Chunxiang would have trapped Simon to death on the top of the snow.

But then again, if there hadn't been avalanche, Anna wouldn't have come to Simon in such a bad condition.

No one knows what will happen at that moment.

In addition, apart from the champion, runner-up and third place in this competition, the remaining rankings are:

Fourth place piano;

fifth place: Lilith;

The sixth place is Wild Shadow Deer Kui Ban;

Seventh place: City Alliance;

No. 8 Smiley Face;

ninth place, Emma;

Tenth place: Clivia.

In addition to the top eight familiar faces, the other two new players who entered ninth and tenth place are two new generation ace snipers in the static zone and mixed zone respectively.

In fact, Xia Shu had seen these two people last year. However, at that time, no one's attention was focused on the contestants outside the top ten, so the attention they received was very average and no one mentioned them at all.

Among the other contestants, what is more surprising is that Qin is ranked above Lilith, and the City Alliance has dropped to seventh place.

But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

Although Qin was eliminated before Lilith, her death was a bit of bad luck.

If so many people hadn't been targeting her hiding place at the same time, she wouldn't have been able to perform a scene in the wild where she was completely exposed.

As for the City Alliance, it seems that they have not made any progress this year.

Compared with the steady improvement of other contestants, she is the only one who is standing still.

So as one gained weight while the other lost, she naturally fell to the back row and sat at the last position with Smiley Face.

There are also two newcomers, Emma and Clivia, who are here to fill the vacancies left after Rabbit God and Xia Shu left.

Its specific strength remains to be seen, and it is very likely that it will be replaced by other players in the future. Therefore, we will not discuss it here.

In addition, there are slight changes in the rankings of other players after the top ten.

Among them, the two players worth mentioning are Jack Jr. and Kana Ikyuu.
