[The long-awaited Bullets of Bullets is finally starting! I can feel the excitement in the air!]
Gun Gale Online is on a full scale right now, 90% of its players are all active though not many joined the BoB the anticipation about it didn't die out, in another perspective the players are much more excited.
[Now lets do a recap for the Competition Rules]
Preliminaries
The preliminaries involve a tournament divided into sub-divisions in which a single loss will mean disqualification. These subdivisions are elimination-style brackets which consist of single 1 vs 1 duels where the winner advances until there are only two people left in the bracket. These two remaining people then fight although both advance to the final round. 30 people in total move on from the preliminaries to the final round.
Battle Royale
A total of thirty participants battle each other in a free-for-all battle royale, each player being separated from all other players by at least a thousand meters. The stage of the third Bullet of Bullets tournament is an isolated island, called ISL Ragnarok, with a diameter of ten kilometers, with varying areas of terrain and a ruined city in the center. To ensure that players are actually able to meet their opponents in such a large area, each player is given a «Satellite Scan Terminal», which connects to a satellite flying over the battlefield. The satellite scans the positions of each player every fifteen minutes and displays the location of all detected players on each player's terminal for a few moments, however, players that are submerged, hiding in a cave or using an optical camouflage at the time of the scan are not detected by the scan, though they do not get the location of other players via the scan either.
Although it is a free for all, multiple players can win the tournament by killing and being killed by a plasma grenade. It has happened one time in American Server.
*Yawn!
Tanaka yawned as he sat in one of the booths in the tournament, beside him, Sinon was sitting close to him.
"How boring, can't they spice it up a little bit?"
Tanaka commented as he finished listening to the competition rules.
"Really? then what do you recommend then?"
Sinon rolled her eyes when she heard Tanaka,
"Simple, on the battle royale add a Safe zone and a danger zone"
" Safe Zone and Danger Zone what are those supposed to be?"
"In the map, a circle called Safe zone will appear and it will continuously shrink as the time goes on, players are required to enter inside the safe zone if they want to live, the danger zone is what is outside the safe zone, there, poison gas or anything can be, players who are outside will receive damage if they are in the danger zone, only by going inside the safe zone can they live, in this way, players will be forced to fight and also get close to each other, isn't that much exciting?"
"Hmm, it certainly is fun as you say"
Sinon nodded after listening to him.
'Maybe I should really get GGO'
Tanaka thought, before opening a message system and messaging one of his secretaries and telling them to search for GGO and try to buy it, no matter the price.
Well, this might take a few weeks so Tanaka won't get any results from them after that so he specified to only call him when they find the GGO creator.
"Hmm, wait, are those two going to join?"
Tanaka suddenly remembered two siblings who plays GGO, so he took out his messaging function again and sure enough, he saw that the two were online.
[You guys going to join BoB?]
[Yes!]
[Then see you there~]
[???]
Sora and Shiro were sitting in one of the booths and Sora were surprised to see a message from Tanaka but when he read it, he shuddered, he immediately pulled the list of players joining BoB and did not see the name Tanaka, he knew Tanaka's in-game name is Ice but there was nothing on the list.
"Wait"
Sora suddenly remembered something and took out his transfer history, he had given Tanaka credits when he first entered the game so, there he saw the name is not Ice, but Morax.
Sora then looked at the list and sure enough, Morax was there.
*Sigh.
"My little sister"
"Hmm?"
Shiro turned to Sora.
"This won't be an easy fight, Guild Master Ice joined the tournament"
Shiro was silent for a while before she replied.
"But we will still win, we are Blank, we won't lose twice to the same person"
"Yes! we will win this with everything we got!"
[Timer: 00:00- BoB preliminaries have started!]
Tanaka who was sitting with Sinon had his body turn into blue particles and disappeared from the booth he was in and in the next moment, he was now in the streets of what seemed to be a street in old London, it was dark and damp.
[10 seconds to prepare, players are free to move around]
Tanaka didn't move from his place and just looked around, there was a barrier covering the other side so he can't see anything, the other player might use this chance to hide, he took out his lightsaber and an energy grappling hook on his other hand.
[Battle Start!]
The moment the barrier was down, Tanaka immediately grappled to one of the buildings.
*Swooosh!
His speed was very fast,.
*Dadadadada!
The other player knew that those who use grapple are invulnerable and couldn't fight back so he immediately fired his gun at Tanaka, the player is inside one of the buildings.
If it were other players. they would have died already, but Tanaka is different, he immediately kicked the wall beside him and propelled himself into the air, then he let the grapple hook go back to him before aiming it at another building and swinging himself forward.
"I'm going to attack on titan your ass!"
Tanaka smirked before he nimbly moved around from building to building, though he only has one grapple hook unlike on Aot, he still moved around like on and he swung around the place like a spider man.
The other player started firing wildly trying to get a lucky hit but all of his shots missed, and when his mags are empty he stopped firing and saw that Tanaka is nowhere to be seen.
"Where is he?"
He looked around him but he suddenly froze.
*Bzzz~
He heard a buzzing sound behind him and light came out.
*Swooosh!
"..."
"Well, that was fun"
Tanaka smiled as he stretched his body, then a floating screen popped in front of him.
[You Win!]
