Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Human Heart Is Unfathomable
The scene returns to the moment when Adrian shoots, and let's talk about Brian first.
At the same time that Athena was hit, Brian was facing Adrian, so he was the first to notice that they were being calculated by Zhou Kai and Adrian. His first reaction was not to attack Andrian, because he knew that as long as they were entangled, Zhou Kai on the other side of the hill would immediately join the battle, and it was impossible for them to deal with Zhou Kai and Adrian's alliance at the same time. Therefore, his first reaction was to wait for Kimura and them to entangle Andrian, and rush to the third level first.
But he ignored a problem, that is, because he saw Andrian, he could react that Zhou Kai and Andrian joined forces. But his allies didn't see Andrian, so what should be their reaction?
Let's talk about Edwin.
Edwin's position is on the far left, with Athena to his right, and Nanami Kimura to Athena's right. Because Zhou Kai's position was in front of their left, he was in Edwin's position, and his eyes couldn't aim at the ally three meters away on the right.
When the gunshots rang out, he just subconsciously rolled to the left to dodge, and as he rolled, he saw the blood mist exploding from Athena's head, and the picture of Brian getting up and jumping towards the third level. In this case, the only judgment he can make is that Brian wants to run away after killing his ally. Although this explanation was ridiculous, he didn't have much time to think about it, because there were many factors supporting his judgment.
First. In his subconscious, there was only Brian behind them, and their only opponent was still a hundred meters away; Secondly, Athena was killed without the slightest warning, and he didn't believe that anyone else could shoot Athena under Brian's watch, even if there was someone else behind him. Then he should be the first to kill Brian. and not Athena with his back to him; Last but not least, all three of them had turned on the camouflage system, and only Brian knew the exact location of the three of them, and if it was anyone else, he would have to walk at least five meters away from them to see through the virtual reality of the camouflage system. And this position has long passed Brian's position, which is simply not possible.
These factors seem cumbersome to explain. But at that time, it was just a flash of lightning in Edwin's mind, and with the support of these three factors, although Brian's killing of Athena seemed a little ridiculous, Edwin still affirmed his judgment. So, he shot Brian's red-glowing back
At the same time as Edwin fired. Nanami Kimura's sniper rifle is also aimed at him.
Athena was shot in the head, and while Nanami Kimura rolled over to dodge, he remembered what Brian had said to him earlier.
"If it's Zhou Kai or Andrian that the two of them killed. Then I'll help you sneak up on one of them, and you can solve the rest yourself. When the time comes, we'll go to the third level to decide the winner. ”
When Brian said this, Nanami Kimura understood that he was not looking at their temporary alliance, but because of Nanami Kimura's test results in the first stage. Bryan and Athena and Edwin are not much different in terms of quality, and if they get to the third hurdle, Bryan won't have much certainty about the eventual title. Of course, he hoped that it would be Nanami Kimura, who was relatively low in the championship, to compete with him in the end, so it was not surprising that Nanami Kimura said this to Kimura.
But why Brian chose this time to do it made Nanami Kimura a little puzzled, but he didn't have time to think about it. The sound of the gun meant that the ambush had failed, and now he had to seize the only chance to advance to the third level, which was to take out Edwin beside him.
All of this was born within 0.5 seconds after Andrian killed Athena, and when Andrian locked on Nanami Kimura and finally killed him, he looked at the four "corpses" on the ground with a little froze. Fortunately, Zhou Kai, who arrived later, had no intention of sneaking up on him, otherwise, Adrian's chance of escaping would not have been more than one percent.
Zhou Kai was also stunned, and he looked at Adrian with some surprise. Because he didn't see what was going on, he could only attribute the result to Andrian.
"Is this his strength?" Zhou Kai's heart was full of doubts and surprises. Not only Zhou Kai and Andrian, but also all the viewers who saw this scene were stunned.
But after thinking about it for a while, everyone was immediately relieved again, perhaps this is why there were few alliances in the "Potential Star" Invitational Tournament in the past! It has been said that the greatest danger on the battlefield does not come from the front, but from the back, and this game is undoubtedly a good interpretation.
"It's kind of interesting!" Yevgny. Grove Wovich. Ferraja looked at the huge particle screen and nodded with interest.
"I'm sorry! Sir, I was negligent, I didn't expect the Chinese players to improve so much. Vasily replied, standing aside with his head bowed.
"You say, will this Zhou Kai be Andrian's opponent?" Yevgeny did not seem to hear Vasily.
Vasily looked even more cramped, he knew that Yevgeny valued Andrian very much, and now a Chinese can be compared to Andrian, and more importantly, he himself does not know this Chinese at all, which has to be said to be his dereliction of duty.
But he knew very well that Yevgeny hated lies more than dereliction of duty, so, although it didn't sound good, he had to tell the truth.
"This Zhou Kai's degree is just to restrain Andrian's magnetic field lock, they haven't fought yet, and no one knows which one is more powerful. So, I don't know. Vasily replied with his hands hanging down on his chest and bowing his head.
Yevgeny glanced at him, nodded and said: "We have always regarded the Americans as our biggest opponents, so it is inevitable that you will have such negligence, but I hope there will not be a second time." ”
"Yes! Definitely not. ”
"This is a warning given to us by the Chinese, since one of them has broken through the third layer of heart refining, then there will be a second and a third. In recent years, China's G sports exhibition has been very fast, but they have been limited by their own limitations to become a world powerhouse. If they can break through this limitation now, then they can reach our level very quickly, and if they are given enough time, sooner or later they will surpass us. The good thing is that God is fair, and they don't have much time. Therefore, I hope that you can collect the information of every Chinese player who has broken through the third layer of the heart refining before the final battle, and even if we don't take action, we must at least know what to do. You should know what is most important to us, so you don't need me to teach you how to do it, right? ”
"Yes! Sir, I know how to do it. ”
Yevgeny nodded and said, "Alright! Now let's see if this Chinese is an opponent for Andrian. ”
In fact, it doesn't matter whether they make it to the third level or not, anyway, in the end, the two of them will compete for the championship. But once you get to the third level, there is a two-hour break, and while neither of you will sneak up on your opponent, it seems fairer to have rules to limit them. Therefore, the two finally entered the third level.
After some conversation, Zhou Kai finally knew what was going on just now.
"I really thought you killed them all, and if that's the case, there's no need to compete in this last game." Sitting on the grass, Zhou Kai said to Adrian beside him.
"You don't look like someone who gives up casually, if you kill the four of them at the same time, I have to compare with you for anything, only by constantly fighting can you continue to improve."
"Huh! I can't tell you're belligerent. ”
"I didn't expect you to be that good."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
"We don't know each other, I hope you can show all your skills later, anyway, I won't keep my hands, because you are qualified to let me do my best." Adrian took a sip of water, then put down the mineral water bottle and said.
"Don't worry! I'm not going to throw in the towel easily. ”
"Otherwise, if you lose, before returning home, I will travel to your place, and you will be responsible for food and accommodation. If I lose, I will invite you to come to Moscow to play, and of course I will cover all the food and accommodation. What do you think? Andrian suddenly turned his head to Zhou Kai and said.
"Well, I don't have any problems personally, it's just that our league has started, and I'm afraid I won't have time by then." Zhou Kai scratched his wet head and thought about it and replied.
"Hey, hey! You're really not modest, do you think you're winning? Just say this to you, I won't be able to make you feel better later. Adrian slapped Zhou Kai heavily.
Zhou Kai hurriedly explained: "No, no! You misunderstood, I'm afraid that I won't have time to accompany you at that time, and it is impossible for you to let you play by yourself when you come to me, right? ”
Seeing Zhou Kai's anxious appearance, Andrian laughed.
"Hey, hey! I'm kidding, see you're in a hurry. Then we will decide, if you win, there is no time now, there will always be time in the future, my promise is always valid! ”
"Attention players, you still have five minutes to get into the field." A pleasant female voice came over the radio at the rest stop of the third level.
