I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms-Chapter 428 - 358: "Bear with it, the pain will soon pass.

"How is that possible..."

The thin man wearing a flat cap from the Firefly Civilization flashed a look of disbelief in his eyes. He naturally knew where he had lost—the opponent had taken drugs before the match, and had done so blatantly!

Doesn’t anyone care?

Where are the referees?

Oh, there are no referees, it’s all automated now.

Even so, they can’t just do that.

Bucky was standing silently in the same spot with a gloomy expression on his face. He could exert a Strength Value of 892, ranking him among the top within the Firefly Civilization, but... even so, that was far from enough to surpass Chen Miao, and Chen Miao was just a hired gun.

Hired guns... they’re not known for their strength.

By now, he had realized that he was probably going to lose to Chen Miao in this round of the competition as well, and unless something unexpected happened, the second place might be taken by Blue Star too, because he had just watched as Chen Miao fed two Civilization Fragments to someone beside him.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel a burst of despair.

Those are Civilization Fragments, for goodness’ sake. Why are you eating them like they’re candy?

However, without giving him much time to think, the system prompted him to send out a player from the Firefly Civilization, but the upcoming players from the Firefly Civilization had already lost all hope, as he was the one with the highest Strength Value.

The player sent out by the Firefly Civilization quickly provided an answer.

’Strength Value’: 782.

Not bad, if they hadn’t encountered people like Chen Miao...

"It’s my turn now, right?"

Hungry Monkey looked at the others with a grin and said, "What about you guys, being an old-brand D-level civilization and all. How could you let us win two rounds in a row? This doesn’t seem right."

Very soon—

Hungry Monkey’s answer was also revealed.

’Player’: Blue Star, Hungry Monkey.

’Strength Value’: 982.

It has to be said, with the same level of Strength Value, Hungry Monkey could indeed exhibit a bit more. Chen Miao’s Strength Value was much higher than Hungry Monkey’s, but the Strength Value they exhibited was almost the same.

When it comes to performing with Strength Value, fighters still have a natural advantage.

After the rest of the contestants, who were essentially reduced to extras, made their appearances, the second event of the competition came to an official end.

’Ding, the second event of the competition has ended.’

’First place: Blue Star, Chen Miao.’

’Second place: Blue Star, Hungry Monkey.’

’Third place, Firefly, Bucky.’

’Blue Star Civilization currently has 12 points, Firefly Civilization currently has 5 points.’

...

During the intermission between the second and third events, the leader of the Firefly Civilization had a complex expression on his face, silently brooding. The situation seemed more complicated than he had expected. He originally thought Blue Star Civilization only had Chen Miao to show for.

Chen Miao couldn’t possibly win first place in every event, could he?

Even if Chen Miao won first, their Firefly Civilization would surely take second and third place. That would be a total of 4 points, just one point shy of the 5 points for first place. The gap wouldn’t be too big, and it was a gap that could be closed by their Firefly Civilization winning first place just once.

But...

The second round had just ended.

How come Blue Star Civilization’s points were already double theirs?

"Leader."

The flat-capped Bucky said in a bitter tone, standing still, "It’s my fault. That Chen Miao is indeed a freak. There’s no way around it... unless you give me two Civilization Fragments. I’m sure I could beat him."

"That way, we can choose a strength category for the next event again."

"..."

The leader of the Firefly Civilization twitched at the corner of his mouth, not speaking immediately. What are you thinking? Give you two Civilization Fragments? That’s something only an idiot would do.

Even if they really won this round, what would that accomplish?

No reputation was gained, was it?

No. Isn’t it normal for an old-brand D-level civilization to beat a newly-promoted D-level one? And they had been utterly defeated in the first two rounds—it was good enough not to be slandered, let alone trying to gain fame.

No profit was gained, was it?

No. As an old-brand D-level civilization, defeating them in this round would yield pitiful rewards; after all, even the system expected them to win.

Why would they throw in two Civilization Fragments just to bet on the possibility of winning, when there’s no benefit from winning?

He wouldn’t make such foolish decisions.

It was beyond his understanding: it was merely a second-round event, and yet, they had brought out four Civilization Fragments!

Four Civilization Fragments!

Why bother!

If you were so willing to invest heavily, you should’ve just given those four Civilization Fragments to them, the Firefly Civilization. They could just forfeit the subsequent competitions altogether!

"Don’t rush."

A moment later, the leader of the Firefly Civilization took a deep breath and shook his head. "We need a long-term plan for this. Right now we need to ascertain one thing: whether the chosen categories will repeat or not."

"If they don’t repeat, then the ultimate winners will definitely be our Firefly Civilization."

"After all, so far, Blue Star Civilization has only shown strength in two areas, strength and combat power."

"If the categories are repeated, we should avoid these types of events as much as possible."

Before they could continue discussing,

a panel suddenly popped up in front of them.

’Ding, the well-established D-level Firefly Civilization has priority in selecting the category for the third round of competition.’

’1: Decryption category.’

’2: Psychic category.’

’Ding, the well-established D-level Firefly Civilization has chosen number 2, the Psychic category. Next up, we begin the random selection of a single competition event within the Psychic category.’
