“What? ”
“No, is this monster that awesome? We just got the news, and the person was already gone…”
“You're telling me? The streamer had only been on for a dozen seconds when an RPG came flying at them. There was nowhere to hide, and they were instantly turned into dust.”
“Damn it!”
“Quick, quick, quick, go to Line 132, the Nemesis Pursuer appeared there.”
Seeing the prompts in the bullet comments, the Adventurers didn't hesitate, immediately exiting their current line and transferring to Line 132.
However, as soon as they arrived, they only heard the rattling sound of a Gatling gun.
Then, what was displayed was… Game Over.
“No, how did they die again?”
“They died too quickly.”
“Line 623, the Nemesis Pursuer appeared on 623!”
At this moment, searching for the Nemesis Pursuer became the greatest fun for the Adventurers outside.
Some people switched lines multiple times in a row but still didn't catch a glimpse of the Nemesis Pursuer; at most, they only heard the roar of heavy weaponry.
Wherever the Nemesis Pursuer went, it was Game Over!
Ordinary Adventurers simply couldn't withstand the Nemesis Pursuer's heavy firepower; as soon as they were discovered, they were dead, with nowhere to run.
“Damn it, who would have thought… a zombie’s weapons are stronger than ours?”
“We're still using small pistols, and the zombie is directly blasting us with rocket launchers. Who can out-blast that?”
“The key is that he keeps chasing and killing us. As long as he targets us, we can’t escape…”
“How do we fight this?”
However, what the Adventurers didn't know was this.
Heavy firepower was merely the Nemesis Pursuer’s first form.
There were also a second form and a third form later on.
Without the aid of some powerful weapons within the map, it would be difficult to defeat the Nemesis Pursuer.
The strength of this monster illustration card destined its drop rate difficulty to be extremely high, so Chen Yu simply let him be, allowing him to chase and kill the Adventurers.
This way, perhaps one day he might actually be killed, dropping one or two cards.
If even one Nemesis Pursuer monster illustration card could be dropped, conquering the Goblin Kingdom would become much simpler.
“Everyone, quick, go to Line 233, the Nemesis Pursuer appeared there! The streamer on that line is a big shot, currently engaging the Nemesis Pursuer!”
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately transferred over.
It turned out that the Adventurer on this line was none other than Qi Maosong.
Qi Maosong was not a member of any strategy group, but his strength was absolutely on par with the aces of some strategy groups.
Moreover, on the perfect clear leaderboard for the Biochemical Crisis novice mode, Qi Maosong was ranked only below Li Ruoshu, which was enough to prove his ability.
Therefore.
He merely performed a slight operation, attracting countless viewers.
His agile movements left countless people in awe.
At this moment, he was running on the rooftop, turning this game into a parkour challenge.
And the Nemesis Pursuer was following him below, occasionally firing a rocket that exploded behind Qi Maosong.
“Holy crap, he can dodge that?”
“A big shot is indeed a big shot; his agility is incredible.”
“Gatling, the Nemesis Pursuer is using a Gatling gun.”
“Oh no, there’s no path ahead.”
As these two sentences were shouted out in the bullet comments, Qi Maosong also found himself in a desperate situation.
The building across the way was still very far, impossible to jump across.
Below, the Nemesis Pursuer had also pulled out a Gatling gun, blocking his retreat. The Gatling gun's barrel was even emitting blue flames; at this point, if he stopped for even a step, Qi Maosong would be shredded by the Gatling gun.
And it was at this moment that Qi Maosong pulled a grappling hook from his tactical backpack.
This tactical backpack was a permanent piece of equipment obtained by completing the novice mode side quest, and it contained many useful items.
As Qi Maosong opened the switch on the grappling hook in his hand, a rope shot out with a “whoosh” to the opposite building, coiling around the balcony.
Qi Maosong pressed the switch again, and the grappling hook immediately pulled him flying towards the opposite building.
The Nemesis Pursuer’s Gatling gun clattered, firing all its bullets, but still failed to hit Qi Maosong.
This maneuver caused a burst of exclamations from the people in the chat channel.
“Big shot, awesome.”
“Too strong, too strong.”
“Awesome, awesome!”
Everyone didn't know what to say; they wanted to recite a poem, but their cultural level wasn't up to par, so they could only shout “666” to express the shock in their hearts.
It truly echoed the content of the two promotional CGs: only the powerful ones were the Tactical Squad, while ordinary Adventurers were just small fries on the road to survival.
The small fries only needed to consider how to escape.
Facing the Nemesis Pursuer head-on was something the big shots needed to consider.
“Speaking of which, where are the big shots from the strategy groups?”
“Yeah, what about the Chang Xu Strategy Group? Didn't they claim to be the strongest strategy group in Tidal Town a while ago? Why aren't they rushing out to conquer such a strong Dungeon?”
“Hahahahaha, they're probably scared! Last time in novice mode, they made a huge fool of themselves. If they make a fool of themselves again this time, it would be awkward.”
“The key is that Lord Chen is also running a live stream mode. If they enter and don't clear it, and are recognized, wouldn't that be very awkward?”
“Hahahaha, it’s fine if they don’t clear it, I’m just afraid their operations will be terrible and they’ll be outshone, that would be awkward.”
“Especially with this young man pulling off such strong moves, it puts a lot of pressure on other strategy groups!”
“Why didn't I notice before that we had such a formidable figure in Tidal Town, truly the strongest casual player? His operations are probably beyond even professional players.”
“Yeah, for the sake of their reputation, the big shots of the strategy groups probably don't dare to show up.”
“I guess so too; if I were them, I wouldn't show up either. After all, the first appearance is live-streamed, the pressure is too great. At least they should wait until they know some information before going in, that way they have a greater chance of success.”
“That's true, then it'll probably be a few days later.”
The few people joked.
Although their own strength was not as good as those in the strategy groups, not having cooked before didn't stop them from criticizing the chef.
The two things Adventurers liked most when watching live streams were: first, watching professional players perform incredible moves, dominating the entire scene.
Second, watching professional players mess up, and then typing “I can do it too” in the bullet comments.
“Extra, extra!”
“Extra, extra!”
“The Black Rose Raiders Group is coming as a team, they have already applied to enter the queue interface. The strongest female team is about to descend upon Raccoon City.”
As this bombshell news broke, in all the lines of the Biochemical Crisis chat channel, all Adventurers who received the message expressed shocked expressions.
No way…
The strategy group, actually came…?
The previous various speculations and Prophets who claimed the strategy groups wouldn't dare to show up were all proven wrong.
And everyone suddenly realized that a professional competition might be about to quietly erupt.
