48 Hours a Day Chapter 1369

Chapter 1370 - The Dwarf And The Twins

“One person can master the skills of an entire team? Is there really someone who can do that?”The man holding the fire qilin was skeptical.

“Rumor has it that he is the representative of the god of time, Chronos. He might even have a time and spirit house like the one in ‘Dragon Ball’that allows him to train in it,”the man wearing sunglasses said with a serious expression.

“Isn’t this cheating? !”The man holding the fire kylin instantly felt that the fire kylin in his hand was no longer fragrant.

“Don’t be so envious. I also heard that Kronos had no good intentions when he set his eyes on him,”someone on the other side who had not said much suddenly said.

“Who said that?”The man wearing sunglasses was stunned.

“The god of sleep, Shupnos, he told me,”a young man with half-awake eyes said. “Shupnos said that Kronos went to look for him and asked him for a favor.”

“What favor?”

“Shupnos didn’t say, but Shupnos seems to have known about Simon’s identity since a long time ago. Anyway, Shupnos didn’t look surprised after Simon was exposed.”

“These bastard gods are all not easy to deal with, and none of them are reliable.”The man in sunglasses snorted coldly, “Forget it, don’t bother about those things. This operation is packed with experts, and with sufficient preparations, even if Kronos makes a move, he won’t be able to stop us from killing Simon.”

As the three of them were talking, a gunshot suddenly came from the forest, and almost at the same time, a member of the search team fell to the ground. However, because he was wearing a bulletproof vest.., this shot did not take his life. It only broke two of his ribs.

The search team reacted quickly. They immediately crouched down and looked for cover. At the same time, someone reported Zhang Heng’s location and weapon, “10 o’clock, distance… about 500 meters, using a 7.62 mm bullet.”

“Prepare a tactical encirclement,”the man wearing sunglasses said decisively, “Which team is willing to pin down the target?”

“Don’t bother, I can do it alone.”Before the others could speak, a short dwarf who was less than 1.4 meters tall said proudly. He was one of the few people in the team who did not wear a bulletproof vest, after saying this, his body gradually faded under the sunlight until it completely disappeared.

“Invisibility? This is really the ability that every man dreams of having,”the man holding the fire qilin sighed.

The Dwarf, who had used the invisibility ability, was so confident that he was on his way. In his opinion, no matter how powerful Simon was, he would not be able to deal with an enemy that could not be seen at all. His journey was said to be a hindrance, but if he was lucky.., he might even be able to finish off this powerful enemy that was ranked first on the player leaderboard.

This way, not only would he be able to make a name for himself among the players, he would also be able to save the world on his own.

However, what the search party had been waiting for was not the good news that the dwarf had brought. Instead, it was another gunshot. This time, Zhang Heng directly hit the target in the head. Unfortunately, the player did not even have the time to show off his ability before he was shot in the head, he was shot in the head.

Fortunately, the encirclement went smoothly. Ten minutes later, when the man in sunglasses arrived at Zhang Heng’s previous shooting spot, there was only blood on the ground. No one was seen.

The man in sunglasses was still wondering whose blood it was when he saw the man holding the fire qilin suddenly stumble. He seemed to have tripped over something. On the other side, about two meters away.., another player was also tripped by the air, and there was a bloodstain on his shoe.

The man in sunglasses sighed. From the distance of two meters, there was no need to save him. The dwarf probably had his head chopped off as soon as he got close to Zhang Heng.

“What kind of invisibility ability is this? Is it really that useless?”Someone couldn’t help but complain. “If you don’t have the ability, then don’t try to be so strong.”

“It’s not that he’s too weak, it’s just that the opponent is too strong.”The man in sunglasses shook his head, “When he passed by you guys just now, did any of you sense his presence? Furthermore, the invisibility effect did not disappear after his death. Clearly, there’s nothing wrong with his ability.”

Everyone fell silent when they heard this. However, Zhang Heng did not seem to intend to give them time to mourn for their comrade. Immediately after, another gunshot sounded. However, this time, the person who was shot only swayed a little, surprisingly, he only kneeled on one knee and covered his chest.

This time, Zhang Heng purposely looked for a player who was not wearing a bulletproof vest. However, after hitting the target, he could not help but raise his eyebrows.

The person covered his chest and panted heavily. However, when he moved his palm away, there was no wound or blood on his chest. On his palm, there was a bullet made of yarn.

The man holding the fire qilin widened his eyes. “You can do that?”

“The magician ranked 21st on the player leaderboard really lives up to his reputation.”The man wearing sunglasses was generous with his praise.

Even though he had no doubt about the final victory of this operation, he had been led by the nose by Zhang Heng right from the start. He had lost his men, but he had not even seen the shadow of the other party. The dwarf that had been sent to hold him back had long been killed, it was impossible to say that it would not affect the morale of the team.

Fortunately, there was still the magician. This beautiful move had saved some face for the search party. However, on the other side, Zhang Heng did not have any intention of fighting the magician to the death. He decisively turned his gun around after missing the first shot, after killing another player who was close to him, he did not continue fighting. He carried his sniper rifle on his back and moved to the next location.

Therefore, the man in sunglasses had no choice but to continue recruiting brave warriors to surround Zhang Heng.

However, with the dwarf’s experience, the players became more cautious this time. After about ten seconds, two more people stood out. “Let’s go.”

The man in sunglasses looked at the two identical twins before him. His eyebrows twitched and a hint of joy appeared on his face. “It’s great that you two are willing to help, but…”

“We have our priorities straight. Even though the arc of light advocates a peaceful solution to this issue, at the very least, we need to make sure that Simon is willing to sit down and talk to us, so let’s go convince him,”said the twin on the left.

“We will definitely talk to him,”said the other twin with a smile.

After that, the two of them walked toward Zhang Heng. They didn’t walk too fast or too slow, but they looked very relaxed until a bullet flew out from the forest, it hit the forehead of a twin on the left side, and the twin fell to the ground.

Growing up with eccentric materialist parents who left him in the care of his grandfather for a job overseas, Zhang Heng had learned to adapt and be unfettered by the oddities and challenges in life. But he would soon learn the baffling truth about the world he thought he knew when one day at midnight time froze and he found himself in a world so quiet and still it was deafening. That night, he discovered that he had 24 hours more than everybody else and thus, marked the beginning of his adventures. The mysteries surrounding his newfound ability only deepened when a strange old man claimed to have given Zhang Heng that ‘gift of time’ and recruited the young man to participate in a cryptic ‘life-changing’ game on his behalf. Little did Zhang Heng know that accepting those terms meant embroiling himself in many versions of reality and exposing himself to the hidden secrets of the world—a decision he could never undo.
