At the outskirts of the abandoned city.
This was the furthest place from the city center, close to the south. Any further and it would be the forest and mountains. Therefore, there was only a single warehouse street with no buildings other than warehouses.
Of course, since it was abandoned, it did not matter if this was the warehouse street or not since there would be no one around.
However, this situation was now broken.
An old off-road three-wheeled motorcycle came from the direction of the city center.
The person in the driver's seat was none other than Rozen.
"He can really drive."
Rozen could not help but complain as he drove the three-wheeled motorcycle as fast as the wind.
In GGO, there were some fixed locations for players to use their transportation.
After all, GGO was similar to ALO, it did not have the ability to teleport. Other than returning to the city upon death and special events that required teleportation to the corresponding map, players would have to travel long distances to move themselves.
Therefore, in Glorken City, there were transportation vehicles that could be used as long as one paid. However, some were easy to use while others were difficult to operate. It was considered one of the more interesting parts of GGO.
Due to this, GGO had held events similar to car racing and players often used such transportation vehicles. For example, when they were hunting in faraway places, players had ridden in off-road vehicles or helicopters.
However, of course, not to mention cars, if it was a helicopter, then it would not be driven by the players themselves. Instead, there would be a fixed NPC that would send them back and forth.
However, Rozen did not expect that there would be such a service in this abandoned city.
Thinking about it, this must have been specially arranged by the officials to increase the entertainment and viewership of the competition.
Since that was the case, Rozen of course did not hesitate to borrow it. After paying, he drove the three-wheeled motorcycle all the way here.
The motorcycle's engine roared to life.
The sound of the wheels rolling over the old asphalt road was endless.
After a bumpy ride, Rozen finally arrived at the warehouse where his target was located and stopped in front of the warehouse's entrance.
"This should be it, right?"
After getting out of the car, Rozen sized up the warehouse in front of him.
The dilapidated warehouse was the same as the buildings in the abandoned city. Because no one cared about it, it became a part of the ruins.
Rozen carried the heavy sniper rifle on his back and looked at the warehouse in front of him thoughtfully.
"There's no sniper."
Before coming here, Rozen was mentally prepared to be attacked by Shi Nai at any time.
Unfortunately, not to mention sniping, there wasn't even the slightest movement.
"Have they already evacuated?"
It was not that there was no such possibility.
The time when the receiver could be used was undoubtedly the time when the player's position would be exposed.
The Players who were aware of this would immediately move to another location after their position was exposed. Otherwise, they would be targeted by a muzzle that came out of nowhere and die in the next second.
At the end of the day, this was a gunfight game. Unlike sword and saber games, where players had to face each other and stay close to each other in order to fight, players only needed to snipe from a distance.
This was also the reason why players like Sterben could defeat their opponents in the preliminaries without showing their faces, and no one could see his true face.
Then, as a sniper, when Shi Nai's position was exposed, she could either continue to snipe from where she was and finish off Rozen with one shot, or she could retreat. She could also choose to retreat after the first snipe without any prediction line. That was the style of a sniper.
However, Rozen did not encounter any snipers and came here unimpeded. It was normal for him to think that his opponent had already retreated.
But …
"If only it was that simple."
Rozen muttered to himself and immediately stepped forward.
"Bang!"
With a loud crash, the warehouse door was kicked open by Rozen.
Although it was a very sturdy iron door, it was a piece of cake for Rozen who had Super STR (Muscle Strength).
When Rozen entered the warehouse, his eyes narrowed.
This was because the scene that unfolded in front of him was completely different from what he had imagined.
"Woo …! Woo woo …! "
Amidst the whimpering, the girl looked at Rozen who had kicked the door open and her eyes widened.
In her eyes, there was humiliation and anger.
There was no other reason other than the fact that at this very moment, the young lady was tied to a pillar in the deepest part of the warehouse by many thick chains. Her mouth was also sealed, causing her to struggle with all her might. However, she could only let out whimpering sounds. It was of no use at all.
The girl was Shi Nai.
And on Shi Nai's body, there was a device that was counting down.
Seeing this, how could Rozen not know what was going on?
Shi Nai was captured.
Moreover, a time bomb was tied to her body.
This kind of melodramatic plot that was common in movies was actually happening in GGO.
One by one, the players in VRMMO saw this scene through the live stream and were shocked one after another.
"Can this happen?"
"What's going on?"
"There's such a combat method in a BoB competition?"
It wasn't just the others, even the players in GGO were confused.
Come to think of it, no one had ever seen something like this happen in a BoB competition, right?
No matter what, the essence of this Strongest Elimination Competition was to shoot at the enemy and eliminate all the participants except for yourself. Who would capture their opponent and tie a time bomb to them so that they would explode when the time was up?
What good would that do?
Everyone looked at each other and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
Only Rozen knew what was going on.
"I see, is this a gift for me?"
Rozen's eyes flickered slightly, then he stepped forward and stood in front of Shi Nai.
"Tsk!"
Amidst the tearing sound, the seal on Shi Nai's mouth was torn off by Rozen.
"You … What are you doing here …!?"
Once her mouth was freed, the first thing that Shi Nai did was not to ask for help or explain the situation. Instead, she spoke as if she was suppressing her anger.
"Don't tell me you're trying to save me?"
Shi Nai's voice was filled with humiliation.
There was nothing she could do about it.
Initially, Shi Nai had planned to hunt all the participants in the BoB as prey. However, she went against her style and exposed herself easily. She was sniped by the enemy and fell on the spot. After falling, she was not shot dead but taken as a captive and tied up here with a time bomb. She could only watch the countdown pass helplessly. In the end, she met Rozen. Not only did Rozen see her in such a pathetic state, he even looked like he didn't intend to get rid of her. How could Shi Nai not feel humiliated?
If she was shot dead, Shi Nai would feel regret but not humiliation.
After all, she was not as skilled as others and could not blame others.
However, if she was reduced to such a state, Shi Nai felt that she might as well stop playing GGO.
Therefore …
"Stop joking!" Shi Nai glared at Rozen and said loudly, "Give me a quick death!"
That was Shi Nai's only request.
However, Rozen turned a deaf ear and silently pulled out his dagger.
"Clang!"
With a crisp sound, the dagger that Rozen swung down at high speed was bounced off by the chain on Shi Nai's body.
Seeing this, Rozen frowned.
