Zone Zero: I'm invincible now that the heavenly fire has killed Nineveh!

"3, 2, 1!"

Su Chen ignored their smugness and silently began the countdown.

The 3-second countdown has ended, and we've reached the 30th second of this online match.

At 30 seconds, the spiked trap appears. Any snake that hits the trap will have its health reduced to zero and will explode with a large number of beans.

The spiked ball was falling diagonally downwards, right where Bell and Ruby were bound to pass.

Ruby changed direction, creating an opening in the encirclement, but Su Chen's snake wasn't nearby, so it was difficult for him to get out.

Next was Bell, who manipulated the joystick to make slight changes in direction.

To be fair, Ling is indeed a veteran player; her quick reaction and change of direction left only two squares empty between her and the spiked ball.

Ling was very pleased with herself.

With only two empty spaces, the chances of Su Chen escaping are extremely slim; most people wouldn't even think of making such a precise maneuver.

As for Ruby in front, there are at least five empty spaces, which makes it easy for Su Chen to escape the encirclement.

"Two squares are enough!"

Just then, Su Chen seized the opportunity, and the little snake nimbly darted out from between the two squares without being touched by the spiked ball.

then.

Right, right, up, left, left—with human-limited hand speed, Su Chen manipulated the joystick within half a second to make the snake form a U-shape, enveloping Bell's snake head.

Then, the snake's head collided with Su Chen's snake body. Because the U-shape was too small, it couldn't even turn around and could only return to zero.

Most of the beans he originally ate were also revealed to have been contaminated.

Su Chen's little snake ate a green cube and activated its acceleration mode, swallowing most of Ling's legacy like a startled swan.

In just a moment, it transformed from an underdeveloped little snake into a long, swimming dragon.

Seeing this unfold, Eileen felt an increased sense of pressure as she looked at Su Chen.

That was too fast! The speed of the operation was incredibly fast, and the control of the amplitude was extremely precise.

If there had been even the slightest mistake, Su Chen would have been eliminated by the spiked ball, or he would have been eliminated along with the blue-haired girl.

All I can say is that this is the limit.

Moreover, judging from her performance just now, Ling was technically superior to her, yet she was the first to be eliminated.

It's not the second-worst white-haired girl, nor the worst Ruby, but the second-best technically, blue-haired girl.

The first one eliminated was actually the one who posed the greatest threat to Su Chen.

Even when besieged, they still chose the most difficult place to break through.

Eileen gained a new understanding of Su Chen; he possessed the spirit of "the brave prevail when paths cross."

As expected of a powerful figure like the Void Hunter, and as expected of the Emperor of Snakes vs. Snakes, the Dragon of Destruction, his skill and courage have already put her under immense pressure.

"Damn it, with such fast hand speed, are you even human?"

Ling looked at the gray screen, her face flushed red like a little apple, making her look quite beautiful.

She had only revealed a tiny opening, yet Su Chen managed to seize the opportunity.

In less than a second, this guy seized the opportunity and swallowed her entire snake.

This guy didn't even look for the biggest flaw in the weakest female high school student, but instead focused on the small flaw she made, clearly targeting her.

Damn it, so damn damn!

"A small skill, not worth mentioning."

Su Chen smiled at Ling, effortlessly maneuvering the snake through the arena.

Just kidding, ten times the human body's reaction speed limit? Are you kidding me?

Having escaped the encirclement, and with the added boost of hand speed and reaction time, Su Chen's little snake grew extremely rapidly.

Inherited from Suzuki's legacy, along with the newly eaten beans, the snake, which was originally underdeveloped, became the longest.

"Oh no, this is bad! Su Chen actually managed to pull out all the way!" Billy exclaimed in surprise as he looked at Ling, who had already quit the game. "I didn't expect Su Chen to eliminate you, the strongest player, first."

Among these six people, Ling is definitely the most powerful one besides Su Chen.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen caught his weakness, and he became the first to be eliminated.

“Billy, Ambi, don’t worry,” Bell said calmly. “It’s all up to you now, you can’t give up!”

Anbi nodded steadily, her fair hands working tirelessly: "Manager, I will do my best."

"Don't worry, store manager, the Star Knights will fight to the very last moment!" Billy shouted with high spirits, "Hidden energy on your back, activate!"

"I'm sorry, Boss Su Chen, but I have a reason why I can't lose!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the white hair on Billy's head stood up, as if he really had a hidden backup energy source.

He would never give up the high-tech advantage of unlimited ammunition!

After encouraging the two acquaintances, Ling looked at Ruby and Ellen and gave them a thumbs up: "You two should keep it up too. I believe in you. Keep your spirits up and don't let us down!"

"Understood!" Ruby exclaimed, her entire body surging with boundless power. "I will not let my idol win so easily!"

"I know, I need to get serious too."

Eileen's expression was solemn, and she exuded a faint blue aura.

Ling's words inexplicably upset her. She didn't want to fail in front of her friends, and this was a very rare challenge.

Energy conservation is about using energy when it's needed, and she feels that now is that time.

then.

At this moment, the energy-saving shark explodes, rapidly consuming its internal energy to enter an overclocking state.

Both reaction time and speed increased several times in an instant.

Visibly, Eileen's snake became more agile, and it also ate a speed-up block, putting the snake into a speed-up state.

Only in this way can we make the most of the limited overclocking time and make the snake as long as possible.

"Yes, Ellen has entered that state!" Mona and Rin covered their mouths, saying with surprise and shock, "We never expected Ellen to be so serious about the game."

"That state, what state?"

Ling looked at the two of them with some confusion.

"Eileen always looks like she hasn't woken up yet, but she's actually incredibly powerful. She just uses the sleepy look to conserve her energy."

"And once the stored energy is released, Ellen will transform into her complete form!"

"His athletic ability is so strong that he can get full marks in everything, and even studying will be a breeze for him. His gaming skills will also become extremely powerful."

"Eileen is simply a perfect genius high school student, just like the protagonists in manga!"

Mona and Rin spoke highly of it.

They had rarely seen Ellen like this before; it had been far too long.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Rin's eyes lit up, feeling a glimmer of hope. "Go for it, Miss Eileen, defeat the Monarch Destroyer Dragon!"

Su Chen's lips twitched. This overclocking mode had more than just that effect; it could slice through several rockets with a knife.

In this state, Ellen's speed is definitely over 100 meters per second, which is similar to her normal speed.

With overclocked performance, Ellen's skill level in snake-on-snake games is roughly on par with his.

"Phew~, now that's a bit of pressure."

Su Chen clearly felt the intensity of the game increase.

If the normal single-player mode is at intensity 0 for the withered flowerbed, and the previous five-player siege was at intensity 5, then removing the bell now actually increases the intensity to 9 to 11.

On the screen, a snake, as ferocious as a shark, swam and pounced, standing in stark contrast to another snake on the other side, its movements as graceful as a brushstroke of ink.
