"Fuuuuuu!"
Amidst the whistling wind, a gust of wind and sand swept past, blowing in the endless wilderness.
Rozen was in the middle of the sandstorm, moving forward step by step. He scanned his surroundings and the wilderness, thinking about things that had nothing to do with his current situation.
"Is the outer circle of this world as barren as this?"
This was a question that already had an answer.
Because the background of this world was Earth after civilization had been destroyed. Other than the cities, the outer areas were almost all barren.
Even if there was a civilization, all that was left was a pile of ruins.
Mutated creatures and unmanned robots were the monsters of this world and were viewed as prey by the players.
Now, Rozen brought his gun into the wilderness and arrived at the training area that was a distance away from Glorkian.
However, Rozen's so-called 'gun testing' was not referring to fighting monsters.
Based on his current situation, as long as he could get out of the inner circle and reach the outer circle, he would have as many prey as he wanted to test his gun.
"It should be about time."
As he mumbled, Rozen took advantage of the numerous sandstorms to hide himself completely in the sandstorm. He leaped onto a rocky hill and went to the highest point of the hill and laid down.
Then, Rozen took out the rifle on his back, placed it in front of him and pointed it in the direction of Glorkian.
Over there …
"Quick!"
"It should be right in front!"
"Let's catch up!"
"Kill that arrogant flame of his, let's see if he still dares to look down on us!"
Following such a voice, figures appeared one after another.
They were armed with all kinds of guns and came from the direction of Glorkian. As they sprinted towards Kieran, they revealed ferocious smiles.
Rozen saw the scene through the scope of his rifle and curled his lips without the slightest bit of surprise.
"So they're here."
Rozen knew very well that based on his current situation, there would definitely be players who would target him and surround him when he left the safe zone.
This was the norm in GGO.
Sometimes, for the sake of a rare item or a rare piece of equipment, players would do the same. After the target left the city, they would sneak up on the target and kill them.
Previously, when Rozen provoked them, the players surrounding Rozen did not choose to leave the Safe Zone. However, that was because challenging Rozen openly was risky, and they were unwilling to take the risk.
As for now, if they could sneak up and ambush Rozen, what was there to be afraid of?
Not to mention, not only did Rozen buy a gun, but he also bought a lot of other things. If Rozen killed him, he would not come out empty-handed.
Because of this, it was normal that some players could not help but follow him secretly.
Unfortunately, these people did not know that they had already been targeted.
So Rozen looked through the scope at the group of players running in front of him.
At that moment, a green translucent circle appeared in Rozen's sight, and it slowly changed its size, shrinking and expanding, constantly fluctuating.
"Is this the Bullet Prediction Circle?"
Rozen recalled the information Kurumi collected for him.
In GGO, there were two major combat support systems.
One of them was the attack support system, Bullet Prediction Circle.
The other was the defensive support system, Ballistic Prediction Line.
Bullet Prediction Circle refers to when a player uses a gun to aim at the target, a prediction circle will appear, and the fired bullet will randomly hit any position within the circle, letting the player know roughly where they will hit.
After all, it was not easy to use a gun to hit the enemy without any support.
The Projectile Prediction Sphere solved this problem and allowed the players to successfully shoot.
The size of the Bullet Prediction Circle was based on factors such as the distance between the target, the performance of the gun, weather, light, skill, and ability value.
Among them, the most important indicator was the beating of the heart.
The AmuSphere worn by the players could receive the heartbeat of the players in the real world and transmit the file to the game system. The moment the heart beat was the moment when the circle expanded to its maximum range, then the circle will slowly shrink, and then expand again the next time the heart beat. To improve the accuracy, it was necessary to shoot when the heart beat was low, and try to calm down as much as possible.
If the heartbeat was too fast due to nervousness, the Bullet Prediction Circle would shrink sharply, and it was impossible to shoot accurately in this situation.
For this reason, there were quite few snipers in this world.
Because it was too difficult to hit the target, the nervousness of sniping was simply uncontrollable.
If it was close combat, although the heartbeat would also cause the Bullet Prediction Circle to change violently, as long as the distance was close, it was still possible to hit the target. Not to mention if the weapon used was a fully automatic light machine gun or assault rifle. However, the Bullet Prediction Circle would usually expand several times more than the height of a person, coupled with the uncontrollable nervous heartbeat, very few people could play sniping, and the number of snipers decreased.
However, snipers had a very big advantage.
That was, during the first shot, there would be no Bullet Prediction Circle.
Unlike the Bullet Prediction Circle that assisted attack, the Bullet Prediction Circle was used to assist defense and evasion.
The shooting speed of bullets in GGO was exactly the same as in the real world. How could it be easy for players to dodge bullets by themselves?
Therefore, the Bullet Prediction Circle appeared.
As long as a player set up a gun and aimed at the enemy, a red transparent light would appear in the enemy's field of vision.
That light was the trajectory of the bullets that were about to be shot.
Therefore, if one had superior reflexes and AGI (Dexterity), they could easily dodge more than half of the submachine gun bullets fired from 50 meters away.
The biggest advantage of snipers was that the Bullet Prediction Circle would not appear during the first shot. As long as one had the skills, the first shot would be a hundred percent accurate, and they could definitely kill the enemy.
After learning such an advantage, Rozen had already decided to become a sniper before entering GGO.
Because …
"Bullet Prediction Circle?"
Rozen didn't need such a thing at all.
Rozen slowly closed his eyes.
At this moment, Rozen's "Eye of the Mind" was activated.
Wind direction.
Humidity.
Air pressure.
Distance.
And the enemy's footsteps.
Rozen could clearly see all of these.
Thanks to this, just like being able to swing the sword in the shortest, fastest, and most advantageous trajectory, Rozen could also see how he should shoot a perfect shot.
Bullet Prediction Circle?
Rozen didn't need that kind of thing at all.
So …
"Bang!"
When Rozen pulled the trigger, the rifle's muzzle spurted sparks, and when the bullet was fired, the bullet passed through space, through the sandstorm, and finally hit a player with a hideous smile.
"Pfft!"
In the next second, the bullet hit the player's forehead.
"Ugh …"
The player let out an incomprehensible cry. His head flew backwards as if it had been sent flying. Soon after, his entire body began to leave the ground and fall to the ground.
The hp bar appeared on the player's side, directly dropping from full to zero.
"Bang!"
The sound of something breaking was heard.
The player who fell to the ground directly turned into countless polygonal fragments and burst.
He died on the spot.
"— —!"
All the players stopped and widened their eyes.
At this time, the trajectory prediction line that extended from Rozen's direction finally appeared, allowing the players to see the translucent light.
"Enemy … enemy attack …!"
"There's a sniper!"
"Find cover!"
"Be careful!"
All the players panicked on the spot.
Seeing this, the corner of Rozen's mouth rose.
The show was about to begin.
