Chapter 146: Chapter 144: How to Recharge Money in This Game?

Translator: 549690339

“Bang!”

In the intense struggle between the two, the gun accidentally went off.

Accompanied by the deafening sound of the misfire, the shopkeeper who was on top of Camille Victoria suddenly trembled and then immediately fell limp to the ground, not moving anymore.

Xiaomei was startled, but she still ran up to help.

Seeing the spreading bloodstain on the shopkeeper’s back, she mustered up the courage to pull him aside, revealing a dazed Camille Victoria underneath.

Camille Victoria had indeed participated in gunfights during the closed beta, but only at long range; she had never been in such a close-quarters scuffle before!

Not only was Camille Victoria shocked, but the audience in the live broadcast room also jumped at first.

However, seeing Camille Victoria’s dumbfounded expression, they quickly started to find enjoyment in her misfortune.

Of course, many also praised Camille Victoria’s luck:

“She even managed a counterkill!”

“Heaven- sent chance!”

“Strong luck!”

“Koi fish attribute!”

“Move a tree stump and a rabbit will run into it.”

“Camille Victoria, are you alright?” Xiaomei asked nervously.

The shop door was pushed open, and their group friends who were waiting outside while keeping watch suddenly heard the gunshot. Guessing that something unexpected might have happened, they rushed in anxiously.

Hearing the footsteps, Camille Victoria quickly came to her senses, took a deep breath, and hurriedly sat up.

She tried to put on a calm expression, “Well, there was a small accident. The shopkeeper here was quite formidable.”

She got up and instinctively dusted off her imaginary dirt—although the ground was actually clean. There were bloodstains on her clothes, but they couldn’t be wiped off; she had to wait a few minutes for them to refresh.

“But there’s no big problem; I’ve already sorted it out! Everyone, feel free to pick your favorite weapons! Time is limited, so hurry up!”

Xiaomei could tell at a glance that Camille Victoria was being stubborn, but she didn’t expose her, just standing to the side with a gentle smile.

As their group friends started to feel uneasy, the shopkeeper who had been killed on the ground turned into a stream of light and vanished into the air.

This allowed everyone to breathe a sigh of relief, finally calming down. One by one, like curious babies, they opened the display cases and looked at the numerous guns, beginning to choose freely.

Xiaomei and Camille Victoria came to the cash register and began to count the money from the cash machine.

Following the terrifying scene they just experienced, both Camille Victoria and Xiaomei hoped that the money would be enough to buy the amusement park tickets, as they really didn’t want to go through this again in a short time.

Xiaomei felt it was too thrilling and didn’t want to take more risks.

Camille Victoria, on the other hand, thought it was too humiliating and wanted to level up before trying again.

But unlike them, the other seven group friends, who hadn’t seen the inside of the shop, were instead excited by the successful robbery.

They quickly found their guns, loaded them with bullets, and with the help of a male group friend, they figured out how to open the safety, load the gun, and shoot.

This male group friend had been relatively quiet from start to finish and had just followed the group. Only now did he catch everyone’s attention.

As an old saying goes, when you have a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail.

Now that everyone had a gun in their hands, many people wanted to fire a few shots, maybe rob something else.

So, when Camille Victoria turned around, raised the money in her hands, and happily announced: “Good news, we have enough money! The robbery is a complete success, and we can go to the amusement park!”

Her words did not have the desired effect, and everyone holding a gun felt a little embarrassed.

Finally, one man stepped forward and said, “Robbery seems more fun than the amusement park. How about we rob a few more places?” “Huh?” Camille Victoria looked at everyone in surprise.

The live broadcast room also had a wave of sarcastic comments:

“A vivid explanation of what it means to be a horse that harms the group haha.”

“No gun in hand: Robbery isn’t good! Gun in hand: Why not rob a few more places?”

Camille Victoria looked at the clock hanging on the wall of the Gun Shop,

trying to dissuade them from this idea: “But time is running out, the city police will be here soon.”

“Then let’s go to the amusement park first, and come out later. The police won’t look for us then, right?” A little clever guy said, “We can come back and pull off another job then?”

Camille Victoria was speechless. How on earth did you guys come up with the phrase “pull off another job”? Are you changing too much?

“Alright,” Camille Victoria agreed with reluctance. Who would have thought she’d be the one who started this?

“But we have to be quick, the police could arrive at any moment!”

Everyone started moving immediately and headed towards the entrance of the Gun Shop, with the quieter man in the group coming in fourth.

But as soon as he pushed the door open, he immediately realized something was wrong. He yelled, “Get down!”

At the same time, he quickly turned around, knocked the people behind him down to the ground.

From the opened windows of several black minivans parked nearby, the muzzles of automatic rifles protruded and began firing furiously at the Gun Shop almost simultaneously!

The first three people to leave the shop instantly turned into sieves, not even having a chance to scream before they were declared dead. Their bodies lay on the roadside, looking brutally battered.

The people inside the shop were also deeply frightened by this sudden barrage of bullets, with three of them being shot on the spot by stray bullets that penetrated through the door.

In the blink of an eye, only three survivors were left: the quick-reacting man in the group, Xiaomei who was tackled to the ground by him, and Camille Victoria, who managed to jump behind cover in time.

“What’s going on?! Who’s attacking us? Aren’t the police not here yet?” Camille Victoria shouted while lifting her gun, shooting a few bullets out of the window as a deterrence.

-Faced with a dense barrage of automatic rifle fire, the revolver’s six bullets could only be played around with, only intimidating others.

The male group friend calmly carried Xiaomei to a position far away from the doors and windows before answering Camille Victoria, “It’s not the police. I saw only black minivans. The enemies were shooting at us from the windows.”

Having said that, he crawled over to the shattered counter, grabbed an SMG-45 submachine gun, and began loading it with bullets.

His composure left Camille Victoria wide-eyed.

Meanwhile, the comments in the live streaming room changed instantly.

“What does this guy do for a living in real life?” “I want to ask that too; this guy’s got something!” “An experienced VR Game player from the past?” “No, they just said they’ve never played any games, right?” “Hiss–could it be that…”

“Silence! Watch your words! Be careful of being invited for tea!”

“Forget the useless stuff; just follow this guy’s lead! Break out of the siege! We believe in you, brother!”

“Yeah, charge! What do we have to fear with unlimited revives!”

Camille Victoria was worried initially, thinking it would be so embarrassing if they all died and were wiped out!

At this moment, seeing the ongoing discussion in the comments, her heart filled with infinite hope.

Reliable Brother quickly loaded three magazines, crouched down with his gun, and approached the firing position near the window.

Just as she wanted to say something, she heard two loud “thuds” from above, and two hand grenades flew in through the broken window, landing between

them.

The next moment, “Boom!” Both hand grenades exploded simultaneously! The explosion’s debris and shockwave instantly shattered the Gun Shop’s doors and windows.

Camille Victoria’s vision went black.

When she opened her eyes again, she was outside the initial cabin with the other group friends who had died before her.

Looking at one another, they all fell silent, a little embarrassed.

Especially the friend who had previously suggested “robbing a few more places,” he was so embarrassed now that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in.

In comparison, Camille Victoria had it worse: she still had over a hundred thousand people in her live streaming room, endlessly laughing.

Finally, the eldest aunt took the initiative to speak up, breaking the silence: “Where do I go to recharge money in this game?
