Chapter 46
“That’s just their strategy to lure the enemy.” At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded from behind.
“You know not…” Robert subconsciously wanted to retort. But when he turned around and saw the figure leaning against the door, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up from the bed.
“You… Why are you here again?” Robert looked terrified.
“Well, you’ve made some progress this time. At least you did not fall off the bed.” Marina nodded at him with satisfaction.
Robert’s expression was a little unnatural. Then, he looked behind Marina. “Did you… come alone today?”
“Who else do you expect to see?” Marina crossed her arms before her chest.
“No one!” Robert shook his head repeatedly.
He swore he would not want to see his third uncle’s face.
It was to avoid his third uncle that he had come to this deserted place.
He had never expected his uncle would come after him!
Now he had nightmares every night when he slept.
He was afraid that his third uncle would come to take him back home forcefully.
“The advertisement is over,” Marina reminded.
At this moment, Robert couldn’t care less. He quickly turned back, facing the TV screen, and stared at it.
After the Night Crawler Team’s sniper was defeated, the opponent used his last bit of lifeline to give them a signal.
The current captain of the Night Crawler Team was observing Tyler. Instantly, he used his rifle to shoot the enemy sniper’s head in one shot.
“Bravo!” Robert darted up from the hospital bed.
OR OUT
However, he forgot his feet were still in a cast. The piercing pain from his leg made him grimace.
“The enemy’s sniper has been killed. Next, it’s their turn to be stopped. There’s no suspense in this battle,” Marina said lazily.
Robert looked at Marina with a complicated expression. “How did you know they used a sniper to lure the enemy?”
One had to know that a sniper was the most important figure in a match.
The other gamers had to cooperate with the sniper in the battle.
Why would anyone think of using a sniper to lure the enemy?
Wasn’t Tyler an observer?
Why was his shot so powerful?
Moreover, this posture looked a little familiar. He felt like he had seen it somewhere before.
“You’ve been fooled by them. Tyler is actually the sniper in this team.” Marina’s gaze landed on Tyler’s game character on the screen.
Just as she had said, it was Tyler’s time to perform his shots in the next few minutes.
Tyler shot his opponent players’ characters in the head one by one.
The audiences in the live stream were about to go crazy.
All of them kept posting comments of awe.
“My Marksman is so handsome!”
“I knew that my Marksman was a legendary sniper!”
“Ahh! Marksman, I want to marry you and bear your children!”
“Every shot from the Marksman was like a cupid’s arrow. I’m already in love with him! Marksman, you have to be responsible for it!”
Other comments were also as crazy as those, followed by a few that were scolding those netizens who commented.
“You bunch of fence-sitters. Just now, all of you were scolding the
Maks saving he was not worthy of being an observer because he did nothing: Why are you all clamoring about how great he is now?”
“That’s right. I hate these fence sitters the most. Unlike me, I’ve always believed that the Marksman can turn the table!”
You were the one who criticized the Marksman for squatting there and pooping, righe
“Of course not! My clone did that. It’s definitely not me!”
Comments scrolled through the screen.
“This bunch of vulgar people only know how to type useless comments with their hands Robert immediately rewarded the Night Crawler Team with expensive gifts on their official live broadcast platform.
His rewards occupied the screen blocking some of the floating
Comments
“Wow! This netizen is a real big shot!”
“The price of those rewards is enough for a down payment for a house!”
“Our Marksman has a rich woman fan!”
“Maybe the netizen is a rich man? A comment popped out, reminding everyone the netizen could also be a man who was a fan of Marksman.
“Hahaha! I’ll be more excited to watch if that netizen is a man!”
After the rewards, Roberts’s comment floated across the screen.
“Marksman, Marksman. Legendary Marksman! You are my Sniper God! Best player ever! I’ll do anything for you!” After rewarding Marksman with dozens of gifts. Robert was promoted to the Top 1 fan on the ranking. With that, his comment was in red and looked eye-catching.
Marina was at a loss for words
This guy was a wealthy fool, indeed!
Meanwhile, the competition had already ended on Tyler’s end. Tyler was leading Night Crawler Team to thank the fans for sending them gifts.
After so many years, they had finally won the championship on this
return!
“It’s been a few years since we last met. That crybaby seems to have grown mature,” Marina muttered with a smile.
“Crybaby? Who are you calling a crybaby? Our Marksman? Our Marksman is a real man. He would never cry! Even though he has been defeated several times in previous competitions, the fighting spirit in his eyes has never dissipated. He is the man I admire the most. Don’t you dare insult him!”
Robert glared at Marina warningly.
“Heh! You’re not afraid of me now?” Marina glanced at him leisurely.
Robert’s body suddenly froze. He subconsciously wanted to avoid her gaze. But when he thought of his idol, he forcefully endured it.
“As a fan of the Marksman, I should be like him, unafraid of strong enemies, unafraid of life and death!” Robert gritted his teeth and replied.
“Is that so? Then, I’ll fulfill your wish!” Marina said as she walked towards Robert on the bed.
“Please show me mercy!” Robert quickly covered his head.
”
Tsk! Look at how useless you are.” Marina clicked her tongue a few times.
When Robert heard Marina’s tone that did not contain much intention of hitting him, he slowly moved his hand away from his head.
“By the way, why did you come looking for me today?” After confirming that Marina did not intend to attack him, Robert’s expression relaxed slightly.
“Who is the person who borrowed your car?” Marina didn’t beat around the bush and asked directly.
When Robert heard this, the expression on his face suddenly froze. Then, he looked away unnaturally. “Why are you asking this?”
“I didn’t say you could answer me back with a question. Answer my question. Who is that man?” Marina emphasized each word clearly.
Robert tried to avoid eye contact. His hands were even pushing the blanket off his body out of nervousness.
“Just… an ordinary friend,” Robert hesitated for a long time before speaking.
“You told me you lent your car to one of your family members last time. Why did you say he is a friend now?” Marina squinted her eyes doubtfully.
“Who said that… friends can’t be family? I’ve always valued
relationships. I treat my friends as my family!” Robert tried to convince Marina confidently.
