That night, Shino had the nightmare that made her shiver all over.

In the dream, she was trembling with a pistol in her hand, and lying in front of her was a man with a large patch of blood flowing from his abdomen.

A group of frightened strangers crouched around, staring at her with a strange gaze.

"I, I, I ......"

The words that have been accumulated since childhood and adulthood, whenever they come to this moment, they can't be opened no matter what.

But even if you open your mouth, what's the point?

Time doesn't go back in time, it just keeps moving forward.

The emotions that accumulate in the chest reach a certain peak, and the nightmare ends.

"Whew, Whew......"

Shino woke up suddenly, straightened her upper body, and gasped for breath.

In the darkness, there was an irrepressible fear in a pair of eyes.

Struggling to calm her breathing, Shina's lips squirmed silently, and she slowly curled up, her face buried deep in her knees.

A slightly more vigorous movement pulled open a large wrinkle on the sheets.

The chill that penetrated deep into her bone marrow made her body tremble slightly.

She curled up in this way, until a glimmer of light reflected in the curtains.

The sky was slightly brighter.

Shino tilted her head slightly, looked at the time displayed on the clock, paused, dragged her tired body, and walked to the bathroom.

Wash and dress.

I had a simple breakfast, picked up my school bag, and headed for school.

In the early morning, the breeze hits his cheeks with a chill, and it is bitterly cold.

Shino tightened her shirt and walked down the road with her head bowed.

After a while, there were more students and office workers on the road.

Shino couldn't help but speed up her pace, but the things in her head had nothing to do with school.

Even if you are out of the completely stealth world, the picture of last night's battle is like an imprint in your head, and just one touch can affect the whole body.

"Blue Sky ......"

The cold wind swept the dead leaves past Shino, and also drowned out the low voice of self-muttering.

In the evening, the school bell rang and the students walked out of the school gate one after another.

Shi Nai walked in the crowd, looking very inconspicuous.

Who would have thought that the girl who seemed quiet and silent would be the female player Ice Sniper in the top 100 in GGO?

When I got home, I changed my clothes and prepared a simple dinner for one.

After dinner, I took a shower, finished the homework assigned by the teacher today, and seemed to have done all the things I needed to do for the day.

Shino lay down on the bed, looked sideways at [NERvGear] placed on the side of the pillow, and subconsciously stretched out her hand, but suddenly stopped in the air.

This is the time of day when she logs into the game.

But this time, she hesitated.

Silently pursing the corners of his lips, the hand reaching for [NERvGear] fell limply on the soft bed.

“……”

After a moment of silence, Shino placed her arms across her eyes to plunge her gaze into darkness.

She didn't choose to log in to the game......

The next day, I went to school as usual.

That night, I still didn't choose to log in to the game.

Even in my spare time, I don't go on GGO's exclusive forums to pay attention to the game information that changes from time to time.

One, two, three......

The [NERvGear] that stood still was unconsciously stained with a little dust, as if it had become a thing that was difficult to pick up after being dropped.

A week later.

Shino sat down at the table and slowly pulled open the drawer.

As the drawer was gradually opened, a black replica gun toy was slowly revealed.

Syllable.

Halfway through the drawer, Shino jerked it back again.

She looked at the drawer in silence, then looked back at the NERvGear that had been placed on the bedside table.

After a few moments, she got up and walked to the bed, holding [NERvGear] in her hand with a complicated look in her eyes.

After a week, she logged into the game again.

With the brilliant light effect, in a blink of an eye, you will be in the city of oblivion.

The familiar smell of engine oil and rust wafted through the air, and the sound of footsteps of varying degrees and the sound of conversation could not hide the excitement of conversation.

Shino tilted her head slightly, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

What is inhaled into the nose is not clean air, but a pungent and unpleasant smell.

"I'm back. ”

Shino muttered softly to herself, and quickly called up the friends list.

His gaze swept down from the lit up ID, and finally stayed on the ID of the blue sky.

That day's showdown was undoubtedly her most complete fiasco ever.

And where you fall, you must get up from there.

Shino stretched out her finger and hung it over the blue sky ID, but she didn't click on it.

Suddenly, I heard the voices of several players talking.

"Steve, you bastard, keep me waiting so long. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but there's a delay. ”

"Alright, come with me, the first bounty challenge must have begun, we can't miss the second !!"

"Well, by the way, that player called Blue Sky must be crazy!"

Hearing that the conversation between the two players involved the blue sky, Shino couldn't help but look over, and could only see two heavily armed players walking forward.

Shino followed without hesitation, but kept a certain distance.

The conversation between the two players continues.

"Who knows if it's crazy, but there is no doubt about one thing, that guy is terrifyingly strong, he can do it so many times with a dozen fifty, although the players who have successfully squeezed in are uneven, but the players who are currently in the top ten in terms of ability value dare not say that they can do it to this extent. ”

"How much bounty has accumulated now?"

"Hmph, let me sell it, anyway, you will know when you go, it will definitely scare you to death. ”

"So exaggerated?"

"Nonsense, there are a lot of players watching every challenge and duel, and after one game, I don't know how much the ticket fee is, and the guy called Blue Sky, from last week to now, has played a full twenty games! As long as the challenge is successful, even if fifty people go to share the bounty, they can get rich directly!"

The old-looking player couldn't hide his excitement when he spoke.

Syllable.

Suddenly, a hand pressed on the shoulder of the veteran player.

was suddenly slapped like this, and the old player turned his head sharply and asked with a bad attitude, "What are you doing?"

But after seeing clearly that it was a beautiful female player who patted him on the shoulder, it can be called a Sichuan opera face, and an approachable smile was instantly put on it.

"The bounty challenge you just talked about...... What is it?"

Shino stared at the player in front of her.

"Uh......"

The old player was stunned for a moment, thinking that in addition to his companions who hadn't been online for several days, there were still players who didn't know about it?

He looked Shino up and down.

Well?

The eyes of the old players gradually changed.

"You're an Ice Sniper?!"

Ten minutes later.

Shino arrives at the central square of the Forgotten City.

At this point, the square was full of players.

Shino raised her head and looked at the huge light curtain that was slowly rotating in the air, and without hesitation, she paid for the ticket to watch the battle, and entered the battle that was already halfway through the battle from the perspective of watching the battle.

The screen switches instantly, and you are in a deserted sunset city.

Shino raised her hand to set aside the pop-up notification box that told the rules, and her eyes locked on the blue sky that was crouching in the shadow of a wall, like a cheetah waiting with bated breath, and the exaggerated Grim Reaper Z6 was held in his hand.

Above the viewing angle, the simple battle situation of the two sides is displayed.

【1/1：12/50】

This shows that in this one-fifty duel, there are only 12 players left on the red side on the right, which also means that Blue Sky fought against 50 players with one person, and successfully killed 38 players.

If Shino switches the viewing perspective to the chat room at this time, she will definitely be able to see the praise message on the screen that is frantically swiping the screen.
