Squad Two was not the only one who wanted to know the answer to this question. The other squads on the street north of the city were equally anxious.
Once the next circle refreshed to the top of the hill, there was a saying that went, "It's easy to enter the city, but difficult to leave the city".
The biggest reason for this was that there was no cover when leaving the city. By then, before OMG on the hill could even open fire, the players in the city who wanted to leave the city would be in a mess.
Just as everyone's nerves were stretched taut as they stared anxiously at the next circle.
In the room, Misaka Mikoto's big eyes stared unblinkingly at Liu Zilang's ghillie suit.
Suddenly, she sneaked up to Liu Zilang and said bashfully, "Shifu, your ghillie suit is so pretty!"
Liu Zilang's mouth twitched. He wanted to twirl her around to tease her.
However, he was most concerned about the final circle. He thought that he was investing in his "mascot" to accumulate some good karma. Hence, he took it off and threw it on the ground.
"Shifu, you're the best!" Misaka Mikoto's eyes sparkled as she happily picked it up and put it on.
At this time, the radioactive web that was shrinking from all directions coincided with the boundary of the safe zone behind them.
The final circle refreshed!
The moment they saw the circle, a series of gasps could be heard coming from the audience!
"Orphan Circle!"
"Orphan Circle + 1!"
"The Ultimate Orphan Circle!"
“.....“
On the commentary platform, the three casters looked at each other!
After a while, Ms-Joy coughed into a fist and smiled bitterly. "Uh, this circle … It's really out of our expectations. Looks like OMG is the biggest winner in this match."
"Yes, I think OMG doesn't need to do anything from now on. They just need to wait for the players in the city to finish running away from the blue circle and decide on a representative. Then, they'll be able to kill the players who occupy the high ground."
"Yes, but if the teams in the city realize this and work together to enter the circle, OMG might not be able to stop them."
"This is easier said than done. Even if everyone knows this, when the blue circle refreshes, everyone will run north from the housing area. At this critical juncture, no one will be at ease."
"Yes, this is one of the characteristics of PUBG. Teams might not always be enemies, but they will never be true allies."
“.....”
On the commentary platform, Liu Zilang and the others in Team Two were in a dilemma.
Although they wanted to climb up the hill and enter the safe zone before the game started, the "neighbors" next door and the possible neighbors next door made them hesitate.
If they really wanted to stand out, even if they put up a smokescreen, the shooting team on the mountain would not be mentioned.
The team behind them would definitely try their best to turn them into sieves.
Because if they were in his shoes, they would have done the same.
.....
Then, the people in the housing area watched as the two-minute countdown timer continued to run down. In the blink of an eye, there was only slightly more than a minute left before the blue circle started shrinking.
At this moment, everyone could no longer sit still!
Clang!
Psst psst psst –!
Some teams tried to smoke up the area.
This immediately set an example.
All of a sudden, Liu Zilang and the others from Squad Two started to smoke up the hill from the rear window.
The area at the foot of the mountain was soon shrouded in clouds and fog. It could be considered a spectacle.
On top of the hill, the four players of OMG had finally killed the last of SnakeTC's Mo Zi while he was running away from the blue circle.
In the blink of an eye, the seven teams on the top right corner of the screen became six. There were only 19 players left in the entire game.
"Tsk tsk, how ruthless, K-god!" Lil 'Hai mocked in the team.
"F * ck, weren't you guys having fun just now?" Lil 'Lion curled his lips.
Beside him, Smile looked at the continuous stretch of smoke and could not help but frown. "It looks like the people down there are preparing to run away from the blue circle. Everyone, be careful. Try not to let them get close to us."
Smile knew that it was not realistic to block the remaining people down there. At this time, he could only settle for the next best thing.
"Smoke isn't any cover." The corner of Lil 'Lion's lips curled up.
One had to know that he, who was nicknamed "Lil 'Vic", was an expert at using smokescreen that was so accurate that it was almost metaphysical.
The smoke might be a huge obstacle for others, but for him, as long as his opponents gave themselves away, he could turn into a smoke hunter and hunt down those who were trapped in the smoke.
Just as both sides had their own plans, there were less than thirty seconds left before the blue circle started shrinking.
At this time, the latest player to run out from the back door of the housing area was Liu Zilang.
He carried AM and did not bother to hide himself. Instead, he took big strides toward the smokescreen on the hilltop.
On the hilltop, OMG's Lil 'Hai was the first to see Liu Zilang. His eyes lit up as he raised his SKS with a 4x scope and fired a wave of suppressive fire!
However, the situation where the opponent was suddenly ambushed and forced to flee in a sorry state did not occur as he imagined.
On the caster's camera on the big screen, Liu Zilang's footsteps stopped abruptly and he instantly scoped in at a spot on the hilltop.
He pulled the crosshair.
Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger!
"Boom!"
It was as if thunder rumbled and lightning flashed in the sky!
AM's gunshot without a suppressor was powerful. Even the OMG players at the hilltop were shocked when they heard it!
By the time they came back to their senses, they realized that Lil 'Hai's helmet had been smashed to pieces. He fell to his knees with a blank expression on his face!
"Se7en2-Vic knocked out OMG-Xiaohai by headshot with AM!"
Seeing the unexpected scene, a wave of exclamations broke out in the audience seats!
On the commentary platform, Ms-Joy was full of praise. "Tsk tsk!
Vic's sniping speed is unreasonably fast! "
Beside him, he also nodded. "That's right. Actually, Vic is just like the Demon King of C9, Shroud. They have a natural sense of sensitivity toward gunshots. What I admire the most is their ability to pinpoint the enemy's position the moment they're hit."
"Yup. Furthermore, AM's longer than 98 linear range allowed Vic's shot to be ridiculously fast. At this distance, there's basically no need to worry about the drop in trajectory."
"Now that one of OMG's players has fallen, his teammates will definitely need to revive him. There are only two firepower points left on the hilltop. I feel like Vic has created a very good opportunity for the other squads in the city to go up the hill."
“.....”
Most of the casters' analysis and predictions were correct.
However, they had neglected one thing.
Once the pressure from the hilltop was reduced, the other squads who had just entered the smokescreen could no longer be as "united and harmonious" as before.
They did not know who had stolen a clip from the person next to them. Following that, they threw frag grenades and fired randomly … In the blink of an eye, the smokescreen turned into a pot of boiling soup!
"Bam!"
"Whoosh!"
In the midst of the chaotic battle, a Molotov Cocktail flew toward Liu Zilang's squad. The smokescreen instantly ignited. Liu Zilang and the others who were caught in the crossfire were instantly dumbfounded!
'Gan Linliang!'
'These guys are ungrateful!'
'No, I can't waste my time with them!'
Liu Zilang called out to his teammates and dashed out of the smokescreen with AM in his arms!
