The Favored Son of Heaven

Chapter 106: Challenge from the Champions

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales!

In the State of Korea, the cultural theme park wasn’t as interesting as advertised.

Everyone turned round and round in the cultural theme park, and Xue Tian kept on yawning. He looked very bored. This made Lev Mirov, who proposed going to the cultural theme park in the first place, lose a lot of face. On the other hand, Lin Liqiang was very spirited. He studied the beauties that came and went all over the place.

Enzo Rota, who had always been a man of few words, saw how spirited his old friend was being. A word faintly popped out from his lips. “Artificial.”

Qin Fen laughed. Enzo Rota was in a good mood today. He actually took the initiative to tease Lin Liqiang. This gathering of old friends had caused him to become much more open than in the past.

Lin Liqiang scratched his head. He had a very helpless appearance. “Hey, Old Enz. The main thing is that this place is too dull. The only option that remains for this bro is to look at beauties. Your words, which really struck the mark, are far too inhuman. Beauties that have gone through plastic surgery are still beauties. Isn’t there the following saying? A true man will sacrifice his life for those who understand him, while a woman will make herself beautiful for her sweeties.”

“It really is boring here.” Xue Tian yawned again. “The person who suggested coming here for fun really doesn’t have standards.”

Lev Mirov’s expression had already become quite unsightly. This cultural theme park, which he heard had spent a lot of money on advertisements, was actually filled with stuff that explained the history and culture of the State of Korea.

“It really is boring.”

Qin Fen nodded in great agreement. They had wasted quite a bit of time here. This time could have been spent finding a hotel with the Internet and going online to the Sky Battle Net to make some money.

Lev Mirov’s complexion turned darker. Lin Liqiang’s background was extraordinary, and he was a character on the genius level. Lev Mirov could only endure it when Lin Liqiang said it was boring. But what qualifications did the guy who used an antique cell phone and relied on a woman to mix into the group have to utter these words?

There were people with similar thoughts in the group; it wasn’t just Lev Mirov. Some boys interested in Song Jia felt the same discomfort.

Song Jia didn’t feel a single bit bored. She was very happy to walk shoulder to shoulder with Qin Fen, asking him questions regarding recruit training from time to time.

“What kind of guns do you use in the military, Qin Fen? It’s very exciting to shoot a gun, right? Your performance is certainly excellent. How often does your drill instructor praise you?”

“This....” Qin Fen hesitated. There never had been any praise. He received criticism every day from his several masters.

Are you a pig? Are you stupider than a pig? A pig is happy if it knows of your existence, you know. This is because it finally knows that there’s something that’s more stupid than itself.

In the eyes of the others, his hesitant expression naturally told them that Qin Fen clearly had never been praised. His appearance said that he was probably reprimanded often.

Lev Mirov looked at the others. The people who he often had decent relationships with had all fell into a collective silence. Their eyes glimmered with gazes of anticipation.

Lev Mirov was very familiar with these kinds of gazes. Normally, when they hung out together and sought to see others make a fool of themselves, their eyes would glimmer with this sort of gaze. It was just that he never thought he would become the character of everyone’s expectations today.

Lev Mirov sighed secretly in his heart, and he really regretted being extra glib today. Right now the responsibility of this boredom fell completely on his shoulders. If he couldn’t find the chance to free himself, then today’s matter would probably become a running joke among their circle in the future.

After hesitating over and over, Lev Mirov had no choice but to open his mouth and say, “Since my fellow student Qin Fen also feels bored, why don’t we go paintball shooting right now? Qin Fen, you’re a soldier. Your marksmanship should be decent, now that I think about it. Us few are all fans of guns too. Sometimes we go have fun in paintball shooting. Why don’t you broaden our horizons this one time? Let us experience what a true soldier is like?”

The others watched with liveliness, their eyes immediately lighting up. Lev Mirov and the others weren’t mere amateur fans of guns. They often got together in a paintball team when they were bored. There was a paintball competition at the Mediterranean Sea a few days ago, and they seized the title of champions and obtained admission tickets to the paintball competition at the World Cup.

“Paintball?” Qin Fen had a weird feeling. He only played with real guns in his day-to-day life. He never played with amateur things like these before.

“Yeah, paintball guns are pretty much the same as real guns.” Lev Mirov’s smile appeared very sincere. As long as he could pull Qin Fen into this, he’d be able to teach Qin Fen a fierce lesson on the paintball field and show Song Jia that he was stronger than Qin Fen. This way he could reclaim a bit of his reputation in his social circle.

Lin Liqiang sneered at the side. The kids of rich families were really sinister. He heard that they normally used real guns when they trained, so their skills in paintball were naturally outstanding. He heard that they had a small reputation in some corner of the Sky Battle Net.

Xue Tian extended a hand to cover his mouth. It looked like he was yawning, but he actually was using all his strength to shut his mouth. He was afraid of bursting out in laughter. Qin Fen with his marksmanship? Xue Tian had seen it once before, and it was forever engraved in his memory, yet Lev Mirov wants to play paintball with Qin Fen?

“We’re just playing?” Qin Fen wasn’t even interested. If it was no different from a real gun, then he naturally had an advantage. If he could bet some money, he’d take the opportunity to make some money.

As for playing with guns? Having been tormented by Gun King for so long, Qin Fen felt some certainty in his skills. Plus the battle during the mission the other day had given him a lot of confidence.

Lev Mirov heard Qin Fen’s provocative intentions. He was also scared that Qin Fen wouldn’t play, so he hurried to ask, “Than what do you have in mind?”

“Can we make it a bet?” Qin Fen instantly tossed out his thoughts. “For example, those shot dead will need to pay their killer a hundred dollars.”

Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota started to laugh at the side. Killing one person would earn a hundred dollars. In other words, killing two people and dying would have Qin Fen earn a hundred dollars in the end. This was a non-risky way to make money, a trap that was well designed in its hidden nature.

“Okay, sure!”

Before Lev Mirov could speak, the people beside him shouted out at the first instance.

The youngsters were all extremely eager for the chance to show off in front of Song Jia.

She was none other than the granddaughter of the Earth Martial God Qilin Song Wendong, after all! If she took a fancy for any of them, not only would they face fewer struggles for many years, their entire family would obtain countless benefits.

What’s more, Song Jia’s appearance and figure were on the mark for a girl!

The youngsters have played with quite a few girls. When they thought about bringing Song Jia into their beds, their bodies involuntarily had some subtle reactions.

Hearing everyone agree, Lev Mirov’s heart of worry finally calmed. Whether or not he’d be successful this time, all these people had taken the initiative to enter the scene. He could safely retreat. He would not act or speak hastily in the future no matter what.

“Since everyone is this interested in the idea,” Lin Liqiang had a naughty smile on his face, “Then, Old Enz. Why don’t we join and play together? We three awesome dudes from Founding Central haven’t acted together in a long while.”

The three awesome dudes from Founding Central? Enzo Rota furrowed his brow. Hadn’t Lin Liqiang called them the Three Musketeers of Founding Central the last time around? Ah forget it the last-last time, Lin Liqiang called them the Three Holy Sages of Founding Central...

“Okay.” Enzo Rota didn’t want to think about the issue with Lin Liqiang’s naming conventions. He simply agreed.

A hint of delighted floated to Qin Fen’s face. The tacit understanding he had with his friends didn’t need to be expressed directly. The two had taken the initiative to participate and join. Clearly, they were scared of Qin Fen suffering some losses. They used the most covert methods to home and help out.

“Old Qin, include me on your team too.” Xue Tian stretched his body, doing his best to control the impulse to laugh. The quality of the bodies and martial strengths of the people before his eyes were decent, but when it came to using guns? They were all on the amateur level! These people didn’t give off any gunner senses at all, yet they dared challenge Qin Fen in a contest of guns?

Xue Tian studied Lev Mirov and the other. When it came to the battlefield, Xue Tian could kill all these people himself, even though it looked like they possessed good essence.

Lev Mirov and the others immediately had a subtle change in complexion. In the end, Lev Mirov had no choice but take the initiative and say, “Young Master Lin. Young Master Enz. It’s no longer fun and games if you to join in paintball shooting.”

The others all nodded over and over at the side. Lin Liqiang was famous for being an almighty superman. Even though he never played paintball games after entering Founding Central, within the circle of the kids of rich families on earth, rumors had spread that Lin Liqiang’s paintball skills were number one.

Everyone wanted to show off their skills in front of Song Jia today. They didn’t want to be accidentally humiliated by Lin Liqiang. As for Enzo Rota? Lin Liqiang had asked him to play paintball, and Enzo Rota agreed in a single word. His strength clearly was a match for Lin Liqiang.

“You’re not going to play with us? Are you looking down on us?” Lin Liqiang feigned being in a bad mood, not giving a satisfactory answer. He looked like he wanted to get in a physical fight right now.

“We’re not looking down on you guys.” Lev Mirov smiled wryly while shaking his head. “We just don’t believe we’re a match for Young Master Lin and Young Master Enz. You are rumored to be the paintball king in our circle.”

When it came to what Lev Mirov said, Lin Liqiang respected Lev Mirov a bit more. Such a straightforward and resigned attitude absolutely wouldn’t lessen his charisma in front of women. Instead, it had the effect of looking free and at ease, increasing his charisma.

“No worries.” Qin Fen faced Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota with a nod. “I should be able to win.”

He should be able to win? Lev Mirov and the other’s all had their complexions darken simultaneously. Qin Fen’s words meant that he really didn’t see them in his eyes.

Qin Fen placed his attention back on Lev Mirov’s body at this time. “Can we have a one-shot kill increase the money obtained from the dead by double?”

A one-shot kill? Lev Mirov and the others laughed. This was an era where martial arts swept the globe. The speed of paintballs was far slower than real guns. It might not be possible to even kill a one-star rookie with a single paintball shot.

“Suuuure.” Someone next to Lev Mirov responded for him. “It’s been many years since I’ve been killed in one shot in paintball. Right now I really do have some good memories of that moment.”

Qin Fen smiled but said nothing more. From what he learned about psychology from Squad Leader Hao, he could feel that their true goal was to humiliate him from looking at their neutral attitudes. They wanted to show off in front of Song Jia.

Xue Tian restrained himself from splitting his sides in laughter. He was secretly delighted inside. It’s been a long time since you’ve tasted being killed in one shot? You really cherish the memory? Excellent! I’m confident that you’ll soon re-experience it, and you’ll be able to cherish the moment once more.

There was a field for paintball shooting in the cultural theme park. They followed a digital map to the entrance where they handled the process to get a game started. Qin Fen finished putting on the paintball clothes, which had sensors that detected when one was shot. When a paintball struck these clothes, the clothes would determine if it was a one-shot kill. If it wasn’t a one-shot kill, the clothes would determine how many life points to deduct.
