Chapter 27 - You’ll feel jilted when he turns on the camera
Edited by Divetus and Noks
Yu Yan had to open his inventory when he tossed the medicine, so the viewers could actually clearly see his item status. At this time, the barrage was already impassioned.
[2/3 first aid kits and 13/15 bandages were all given to Boss.]
[Such a math wizard, sweetie.]
[I don’t know what these women are so excited about. I only want to say that the anchor should just concentrate on playing the game, okay?? What’s the point of playing this way?]
[If you don’t like watching, you can leave ah! Can’t you see the stream’s title??]
Before starting their livestream, every anchor would think of an eye-catching title for themselves. The others had titles such as “Asia server’s Top 10”, “Server’s #1 sniper”, or “Already ate X chickens in a row”…
When looking at Yu Yan’s title, it was just two words—[yanxyan: Casually playing].
Lu Xiuhe had already mentioned the problem of Yu Yan’s livestream title to him more than once. He wanted Yu Yan to change it to something better, such as “Asia Server’s Former #1, or “#1 Gunslinger”; Yu Yan had rejected all such title suggestions. He thought that, the moment a title like that was posted up, the livestream pressure would increase.
“I’m still playing the game properly.” Yu Yan said, “You don’t have to always win when playing, you need to learn to enjoy the process.”
Yi Ran suddenly thought of something. “Right, can’t this bug be fixed by being blown up by a frag grenade and then getting revived?”
“It’s pointless!” Lu Xiuhe said, “I’ve experienced the bug before. The explosion did kill me, but my game character was still stuck there. This bug seems to have been hotfixed before, but it probably came back because of the maintenance.”
“Then, what other fucking solutions are there?”
Yu Yan had now already run to the road.
He looked in all four directions and answered, “Looking for a vehicle.”
Yi Chen looked at his position. “Can a vehicle come up?”
He was at the top of Ruins. To get up here, all players would have to either go up the stairs or have already landed here.
“Yes.” Yu Yan added, “A motorcycle can.”
“En.” Yi Chen leaned against his chair. “If you can’t find one, just directly leave.”
Yu Yan pursed his lips. “I’ll find one, I know the nearby car spawn points.”
As he said that, he had already found one car spawn point.
A four-wheeled buggy, useless.
[Enter the circle ba.]
[You only have half your health left, with only one first aid kit…]
Yu Yan passed by a small house in the field, picked up the first aid kit at the door, and laughed, “Now, I have two.”
He ran to the next car spawn point, and saw another four-wheeled vehicle.
“Another car?” Lu Xiuhe said, “Wtf, when we actually want a four-wheeled vehicle, we can’t find one. Now that we’re not looking for one, they’re parked like they would be at a wedding.”
Yu Yan took a first aid kit and continued running. “1, you’re almost out of health, take a first aid kit now.”
“En, taking one.” Yi Chen didn’t bother trying to persuade him to enter the circle. He lightly took a sip of coffee as he opened the livestream app on his cellphone to watch the little anchor’s figure. He said, “Take your time searching, I’m not in a hurry. It’s also fine if you can’t find one.”
[Hahahahaha, you have so much medicine, of course you’re not in a hurry!]
[If he can’t find it, you’ll just live and die together, right?]
Yu Yan was looking for the motorcycle, but at the same time, he also looked around to see if there was a mobile lootbox trying to run into the poison circle, which could help him solve his need for medicine right now.
If the next car spawn point only had another four-wheeled vehicle, the medicine he had on him might not be enough.
The sound of thunder boomed. Yu Yan ran for a while, and through the rain and fog, saw a vehicle in front of him.
It was a motorcycle.
A glittering motorcycle right beside another car.
“I found a motorcycle!” Yu Yan quickly ran up to it. As soon as he got on the motorcycle, he did a beautiful U-turn and sped up. “I’m coming.”
The black-skinned woman rode the motorcycle, traveling through the heavy rain. Yu Yan’s game character was obviously the same type of character as everyone else’s, but his character’s back profile displayed an imposing manner that others didn’t have.
[This is such a beautiful love, I’m crying.]
[I, who have never spent money on a stream, actually want to smash presents at this anchor.]
[To the previous message, unless you want to smash more than 20,000 yuan, don’t expect to get this treatment. Do you see the other boss? Even after sending gifts of several thousand yuan, the anchor didn’t even jump with him. He’s a true money worshipper.]
[If you’re just going to talk shit all day, why don’t you also include that the anchor takes other stream followers free of charge every day?]
Yu Yan ignored the barrage. He didn’t have much health left, and they needed to get into the inner circle soon. Right now, he was wholeheartedly just trying to make his way back to Ruins.
Fortunately, Sanhok was relatively small, and it wouldn’t take long for them to enter the circle by motorcycle. If they were on Erangel instead, he really wouldn’t have had any way to get back.
He had good driving skills, so they soon arrived at Ruins. Then, he released the acceleration key and carefully drove up the smooth ramp-like surface on the side of the stairs.
After he successfully entered Ruins, Yu Yan drove up to Yi Chen and said, “Come on, see if you can get on the bike?”
When he finished his words, the person next to him teleported and sat on the motorcycle’s back seat.
He breathed a sigh of relief, got off the bike and then started using a first aid kit. “Wait… I’ll take a first aid kit.”
Yi Chen also got down from the bike and threw some bandages and a bottle of painkillers onto the ground.
“Use the bandages first, and when we’re in the circle, take the painkillers.”
“No need…” Yu Yan glanced at the lower left corner of the screen and noticed that Yi Chen’s health wasn’t full. “You take the painkillers, you can get your health to full.”
“I know. I specifically left it for you.” Yi Chen said, “Only looted this one.”
Yu Yan: “…”
Without hesitation this time, Yu Yan bent down to immediately pick it up and then quickly got back on the bike.
With warm ears, he said, “Go. Let’s go ba.”
The two of them raced all the way towards the circle and then slowed down a bit as they saw that they were about to come upon their teammates.
Several shots rang out.
Lu Xiuhe loudly exclaimed, “Fuck! There are people here!”
Yi Ran also shouted, “To the right!! A full squad… Oh fuck!”
In the top right corner of Yu Yan’s screen, the messages that his teammates were killed popped up. Yi Ran got headshotted and knocked down by a sniper wielding a Kar98K.
“It’s over, it’s over, can’t pull you up. The enemy team is still on you.” Lu Xiuhe hurried and asked, “Xiao Yan, have you arrived? Why are you taking so long, did you secretly slow down?”
Yu Yan replied, “… On the way, will be there soon.”
As soon as he replied, the sound of another heavy gunshot resounded. Lu Xiuhe also got knocked down, but this time by an AWM.
“Everything’s done for,” Lu Xiuhe said critically. “Xiao Yan, quickly come and help me.”
Yi Ran screeched, “Fuck me! Someone on the right has been revived…”
Before Yi Ran could finish speaking, he was killed off by the revived enemy’s Groza.
Seeing the kill notification, Yu Yan didn’t hesitate and turned the bike straight to the left.
“??” Lu Xiuhe watched his teammates get further and further away, and asked dumbfoundedly, “What, why are you guys leaving?”
Yu Yan responded, “It’s too late. After they finish looting No. 2, they’ll come and finish you off.”
“Then, you can come and avenge us ah!”
Yu Yan said, “They have an AWM and a Groza. I can’t avenge you guys.”
Because he had been rushing to find a motorcycle, he didn’t search for anything else. He didn’t have much ammo. If there were only one or two enemies, he could think about it, but this was a full squad—there was no need to just go there and die.
Lu Xiuhe: “…”
[The anchor is actually wussing out!]
[But there are no places for you to search now ah, where do you plan to go?]
Yu Yan drove all the way to a mountainside and then hopped off the bike. “Let’s go, we’ll abandon the motorcycle.”
Yi Chen didn’t ask where they were going and just followed Yu Yan as soon as he got off the motorcycle.
The two of them ran to a random tree and then laid prone under it.
Lu Xiuhe asked, “What are you doing?”
Yu Yan looked ahead and calmly replied, “I’m waiting.”
Yi Chen swayed his mouse back and forth and asked, “Waiting for what?”
Just as Yi Chen finished asking that, the person next to him suddenly moved into a crouch position, peeked sideways, took out a gun and then shot. His actions were efficient, with almost no trace of hesitation.
Ten shots rang out——
[yanxyan has eliminated HUIHHSZ with an AKM]
“Waiting for a lone wolf.” Yu Yan ran up and looted the box, “Come, take the gun and kill some people.”
The last surviving member of a squad was called the lone wolf.
Yi Chen laughed. He got up and ran over to loot a fully-decked outSKS.
“This gun can get a bit shaky.” Yu Yan said, “If you can’t snipe after two shots, just run.”
Yi Chen replied, “Alright.”
After spectating Yu Yan for a long time, Yi Ran couldn’t help but say, “Hey, can I apply to jump with you in the next match ah? I think your friend’s a bit unreliable ah.”
Obviously, he and Lu Xiuhe had taken the lead in entering the circle, but why did he feel like his game experience wasn’t as good as his Ge’s?
Yu Yan heard the shuffling sound of someone crawling and instinctively said, “Shh.”
Yi Chen leisurely explained, “He means no, you can depend on yourself.”
Yi Ran: “…”
Although they had looted the lone wolf’s inventory, between the two of them, they were still short on supplies. On their way into the next circle, they met the squad that had previously killed Lu Xiuhe and Yi Ran and were killed at the bridge.
When they returned to the game lobby, Yi Ran took advantage of Manners Plaza’s 60 second loading time and alt-tabbed to browse through the livestream webpage.
“Eh, Xiao Yan, you’re not participating in the anchor competition? Why don’t I see your name on the participant list?”
On the anchor competition’s event page was a list of participants. As long as an anchor had signed up to participate in the competition, their ID would appear below each relevant award category.
Yu Yan paused. “I haven’t signed up yet.”
Yi Ran asked, “Why not?”
Yu Yan replied honestly, “Because they require a camera, and I haven’t had time to buy one yet.”
Yi Chen’s index finger lightly tapped on the table.
After a while, he pushed the voice chat button. “Camera?”
[Oh fuck! Are you finally going to turn on the camera?!]
[It’s over, I heard that 99% of the people with good voices are fat nerds…]
[Don’t ah, I’m begging you. I’m afraid that if you turn on the camera, I won’t be able to continue shipping yours and Boss’ CP!]
[Think about it from a different perspective ah, Jies/Meis! If the anchor is in the one percent, then wouldn’t the love between him and Boss be even sweeter?!!]
“En, the platform requires that all participating anchors in the competition must use their cameras.” Yu Yan quickly moved his mouse and banned the two YYing stream followers.
“What the hell? Who is a fat nerd?” After returning from the bathroom, Lu Xiuhe saw the barrage and slapped the table. “You guys must be kidding! Xiao Yan is super handsome. There used to be girls peeping at him every day at the Internet Cafe… Really, why would I lie? … What? Does he look gay or not? … What does this mean…?”
Yu Yan had a headache. He quickly started another match.
Yi Chen suddenly asked, “When will you turn your camera on?”
“En?” Yu Yan was stunned and reflexively answered, “In… In the next two days ba.”
[You can see your little anchor soon, is Boss excited?!!!]
[Boss, you’d better not come at that time. Believe me, you’ll feel jilted when he turns on the camera. It’s better to keep the original beauty in your heart.]
[Will Boss come to see the anchor’s first video stream??]
Yi Chen skimmed over the pile of useless barrage messages and casually picked to answer one of them. He concisely said, “I’ll be there.”
