Chapter 10 - I’m too noob, so I won’t pick it up
After sending the message, Yi Chen gently moved the mouse, clicked the red x at the top right of the webpage, shut down the computer and exhaled.
Then, he got up and walked to the French windows that overlooked a myriad of city lights, and unhurriedly answered his phone.
“En.”
“Yi Chen.” The voice of the old man at the other end wasn’t happy. “How could you only answer the phone now?”
Yi Chen’s lips pulled down, and his eyes flickered with impatience, but his tone was as usual. “What’s the matter?”
Seeing that the other party didn’t greet him, the old man took a few deep breaths before continuing, “When are you free? Let’s meet up — your grandfather made an agreement with me four years ago to let me undertake the Xu River project. How could you suddenly change the project leader without discussing this with me in advance?!”
“Uncle Chen,” Yi Chen smiled. “You said it yourself, that was what my grandfather promised. Naturally, you should seek him out for an explanation. I’m afraid nothing will change if you meet with me.”
“You!” The other party was so angry he nearly spit out blood.
Old man Yi passed away three years ago. Telling him to go seek out old man Yi for help, wasn’t that just cursing him?!
“Yi Chen, what do you mean by that!”
Yi Chen heard the other party’s heavy breathing and only then, gradually, withdrew his smile. He felt that he had succeeded in angering him enough and said, “Eight o’clock Sunday morning, Mingguang Hotel.”
Hanging up the phone, the man pressed on a remote control, and the curtains slowly closed.
He took his shirt off with one hand, and his well-built physique was exposed to the air, the lines of his muscles rising and falling slightly with his breath.
Seemingly thinking of something, he stopped walking and unlocked his cellphone.
As the largest livestream platform, StarTV naturally had an app.
“Ding—”
After the sound of the download prompt rang out, he tossed his cellphone aside, grabbed a bathrobe, and turned around to enter the bathroom.
——
There were two knocks on the door.
The man sitting in the boss’ chair didn’t lift his head and indifferently said, “Scram.”
There was only one person who dared to knock on his office door without anyone notifying him beforehand.
Unfortunately, the door opened faster than he could say scram. A boy wearing casual clothes and sneakers worth tens of thousands of yuan grinned and came in carrying a ball. “Ge, I’ve missed you unbearably so!”
As if accustomed to receiving this kind of attitude from the other person, Yi Chen turned the page over and quickly signed his name on the document with a pen. In a careless tone, he asked, “What?”
Yi Ran clicked his tongue, quickly walked to his desk, and fawned upon him as he said, “Ge, since I’m coming over to your house to eat soon, I thought I would travel there with you.”
“Do you not have a car?”
“Have one , and it’s the one you gave me!”
As he mentioned this, Yi Chen’s index finger and thumb closed together, and he couldn’t help rubbing them against each other. “Then, are your legs broken?”
Yi Ran said, “, Ge…”
“Say it .” Yi Chen closed the document and threw it aside. “What did you come to find me for?”
Yi Ran was surprised and thought that his cousin had mind-reading abilities.
But it didn’t matter. Seeing that the other side had already uncovered his purpose, he no longer talked in circles. He just threw the ball to the ground, pouted, and started to pour out his woes. “Ge, quickly save me! My dad froze all my cards and took away all my car keys while I was sleeping!”
“I’m now living in a friend’s house. It has a little over 100 square meters, and it’s nearly full after just putting down two beds… I only have 40 yuan in cash on me, and I can’t even buy a meal to eat–”
“What have you done?”
“I didn’t do anything .” Yi Ran sighed, “I, I just participated in a few car races.”
Yi Chen sneered. “Then, you’ve done well for yourself.”
“It was just&#k2026; casually playing, not trying to win at all costs, there was no prize and the mountain we went to was safe, not steep&#k2026;” Yi Ran continued, “Ge, if you lend me some money, I’ll definitely return it to you later!”
“If you go home now, you won’t have to borrow it from me.”
“I won’t go back.” Yi Ran seemed to have thought of something, and his eyebrows drew together tightly. “The old man keeps bringing that woman back recently. I won’t go back even if I’m beaten to death this time!” was also smaller and more time-efficient. Basically, after running for just a bit, you would hear gunfire.
As soon as Sanhok was released, it immediately replaced Miramar in Yu Yan’s heart.
For no other reason except that when you’re surrounded by people, you can just open a door to get a gun in this map; it was so friendly to him, an unlucky player…
Speaking of which, Yu Yan jumped to Bootcamp, the area where the most intense gunfights on the map took place.
Yu Yan landed on a building’s roof, turned to open the door beside him and saw a gun.
Only… It was a VSS. As far as the eye could see, this was the only gun in the place.
The VSS. This was a sniper rifle that naturally came with a 4x scope and a silencer.
This brief introduction could just make people drool over it.
Unfortunately, if the developers opened a door for you, the window must also be closed.
To make a long story short, it’s——
I’m a VSS, I have a 4x scope and a silencer, but also have low damage, low muzzle velocity, heavy bullet drop and can’t hit things.
[Today, the anchor still can’t catch a break…]
[Call Miss Tuan Tuan!!]
[Search the next building.]
[This gun wastes my time whenever I reload it.]
Yu Yan didn’t even think about it before picking it up and loading it. “They’re all guns. Why divide them into high or low grades?”
After that, he crouched by the window, opened a scope towards the opposite roof, and successfully caught sight of an enemy, who, like him, was crouching behind the pillar searching for people.
Without even thinking about it, ‘bang bang’ went his gun——
Several rounds hit.
The other side sputtered out some green blood, but they were still healthy and not dead. Yu Yan was just getting ready to make further shots, but the enemy had already retreated to bandage themselves up.
Yu Yan exclaimed, “Got directly hit so many times but still didn’t die…? I knew the damage was low, but I didn’t expect it to be this low. Has this been updated?”
He closed the scope and waited for the other side to peek again.
It wasn’t long before the enemy appeared and fired a shot at him. The sound was heavy, just like the sound of a cannon.
It was the sound of an M24.
Fortunately, the shot hit the wall. Yu Yan immediately opened the scope and once again, hit them twice, but the other side was unwilling to be outdone. The two of them began to vigorously and energetically snipe at each other, the large-scale fire of war encompassing them.
When Yu Yan ran out of ammo and was ready to retreat, he only heard— bang. A line of white words jumped out and then the screen grayed out.
[IPZZZZZZZ killed you with an M24]
[It’s as if I saw a Rolls Royce and an Aima electric scooter collide.]
[It took one minute and 27 seconds. The anchor directly hit the other side eight times. However, the other side only shot the anchor once, and the anchor died on the spot.]
Yu Yan: “…”
He silently closed the match screen.
For the next match, he still queued into Sanhok. This time, he decided to jump to Paradise resort. The houses in the middle of Paradise Resort were very large, and you rarely ran into a situation where there was only one gun.
He jumped on the balcony and turned to open the door——
A VSS laid quietly on the floor, and the gun border seemed to glow with a warm light.
Lines started to appear in the barrage.
[They’re all guns. Why divide them into high or low grades?]
[They’re all guns. Why divide them into high or low grades?]
[They’re all guns. Why divide them into high or low grades?]
“This is a god’s gun.” Yu Yan ran into the room and brushed past the VSS, not even looking back. “I’m too noob, so I won’t pick it up.”

Divi: Lots of notes here, mostly on the VSS, but it’s not as bad as Yanyan makes it out to be if you’re a pro. Of course, there are better guns… but beggars can’t be choosers…
