Chapter 677: It Must Be the Choice of the Steins Gate!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘What the hell? How did it turn red just like that?’

Liu Zilang’s eyelid twitched when he saw the red zone on the map.

Liu Zilang gave his disciple a side glance. She had her head down and was busy running.

“You said that you can summon Heavenly Fire, right? Can’t you make it appear somewhere else?” Liu Zilang asked.

“Ah?” Misaka Mikoto was surprised for a while, but she immediately replied, “I can’t, shifu~!”

“Why?” Liu Zilang asked.

He had not expected Misaka Mikoto to give an explanation with such seriousness. “All of this... must be the choice of Steins Gate.”

“...” Liu Zilang’s face darkened.

‘Then what use do I have for you?’

Misaka Mikoto took a peek at Liu Zilang and noted the change of mood on his face.

She confidently added, “But don’t worry, Shifu! I won’t be hit by Heavenly Fire! A pact binds us!”

“Really?” Liu Zilang did not give in so easily.

The main point was that she was still running at full stride toward a small toilet in front of Mylta Power as she spoke.

The corner of Liu Zilang’s mouth twitched when he noticed it. ‘Why are you running away so fast then!

‘Who are you trying to deceive!’

He initially thought that she had some insight regarding Heavenly Fire. However, he was utterly disappointed in his silly disciple’s abilities at that moment.

He dared not linger too long in the area, so he hastily ran toward the small toilet.

His legs had only started moving when something whistled past his head.

He lifted his head!

A ball of Heavenly Fire fell on top of the toilet!

Boom~!

The ball of fire broke into countless shards of glowing embers amid billowing black smoke. It was also accompanied by an earth-shattering boom!

‘Wait a minute? Isn’t my silly disciple there?’

Liu Zilang reflexively took a look at his squad list and saw that her health bar was empty.

After the smoke had cleared, Misaka Mikoto was seen kneeling in front of the toilet with her butt pushed up high in the air. She was looking at him like this (ಥ_ಥ).

She had been knocked out for the second time!

She was behaving like a second-year middle schooler!

“Shi... Shifu...”

“That’s enough. Let’s go into the toilet.”

“Oh, oh!”

“...”

After Misaka Mikoto had crawled her way into the toilet, Liu Zilang revived her from the back.

Even though it looked a little unsightly, he laughed out loud.

“Shifu... It’s... It’s not what you think!” Misaka Mikoto said, blushing madly.

Liu Zilang sighed and interjected, “You don’t have to explain. Your master understands! This must also be the choice of Steins Gate, right?”

“No! Shifu...” Misaka Mikoto drew in a deep breath and said seriously, “This is because The Invisible Borderline has been breached, and the Heavenly Fire has been corrupted by evil. I’m losing my control over it...”

“...”

The corner of Liu Zilang’s mouth twitched. He silently lowered his head, but in his heart, he bellowed, ‘Don’t try to hide the fact that you were almost killed by spouting all that weird nonsense!’

...

When Misaka Mikoto was struck by Heavenly Fire within the red zone, several teams noticed her name in the system notification interface on the top right corners of their screens.

Some of the teams were familiar faces.

They were Karl, SSR, and their team coach, Long Shenjue.

After seeing the notification that Misaka Mikoto had been knocked out, they all noticed the same thing. That was, Liu Zilang had to be in the red zone.

Furthermore, he had to be reviving his teammate!

Their eyes flashed, and they subconsciously started scouting around the red zone.

It was proof that in the tournament throughout the past two days, Liu Zilang had become Public Enemy Number One.

Unfortunately, he knew nothing of all this. After reviving Misaka Mikoto, he did not plan on lingering in the toilet. Instead, he wanted to scoot directly into the safe zone under the cover of the red zone.

Liu Zilang had lost all trust in his delusional disciple’s words. However, he thought that as long as they kept a certain distance away from each other while running, they could revive each other in the event that someone was unlucky and got knocked out.

Of course, if it so happened that heaven gave them a fireball each, there was nothing they could do but accept their fate. His silly disciple would have to be disciplined after the tournament!

However, what Liu Zilang did not expect was...

Heavenly Fire to show mercy on them. On the other hand, their opponents in the safe zone had turned into an angry mob!

Someone had spotted them and sprayed a volley of bullets at them.

All of a sudden, gunfire erupted all around them, and a continuous wave of bullets was formed!

Swish swish swish~!

A storm of bullets accompanied the hailstorm of Heavenly Fire!

Fire exploded all around them as bullets whizzed past the air around them!

Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto were thoroughly flustered by the attack. They managed to find a tree that barely covered them and hid behind a smokescreen.

With so many enemies surrounding them, and with explosions going off all around them, Liu Zilang could not discern his opponents’ positions just from sound alone.

Thus, they could only cower behind the tree. Occasionally, a bullet would strike their legs.

‘This is the end!’

Liu Zilang’s heart had grown cold, and he thought that it was the end of the road for them in the tournament. That was when a familiar phrase was chanted next to his heart...

“Break, reality! Shatter, synapse!”

The corner of his eye twitched, and he turned over to look at Misaka Mikoto.

‘This isn’t a good time to fool around!’

She raised her voice and chanted the phrase with utter devotion.

“Vanishment, This World!”

‘It’s in English now!?’

Liu Zilang did not want to say anything to hurt her feelings. The reality was tough enough for both of them.

Unexpectedly at this time, two balls of fire erupted at Mylta Power which was in the distance. Then, two kill notifications abruptly appeared on the top right corner of their screens.

“Se7en-SSR was knocked out in the redzone!”

“4AM-Longshenjuezzz was killed in the redzone!”

Liu Zilang’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and his jaw nearly hit his foot.

‘Did the world... change while I wasn’t looking?’

At the same time, Long Shenjue and SSR were seared medium-rare by the explosions, and their heads were smoking!

SSR did not have cover, so it might have been because of bad luck that he had been struck.

However, Long Shenjue was hiding in a stone building outside of Mylta Power, and only half of his body was out in the open.

Heavenly Fire landed exactly on his face! What kind of jinx was that?

Not only were they dumbfounded. Even the live audience members and live stream viewers could not process what had happened!

They recalled that in the interview earlier, Misaka Mikoto had said in all seriousness, “Yes, I summoned that”.

They could not believe their eyes. At that time, they felt like they had been struck by lightning, and a pail of cold water had been thrown on their heads.

A wave of coldness washed over their bodies...

“Um... You remember what Menhera-chan said earlier, right?”

“You gotta be joking!”

“Um... Coincidence! It must be a coincidence!”

“Have you ever thought... what if it isn’t a coincidence?”

“...”

In the match, Liu Zilang let out a long sigh of relief and then turned to look at Misaka Mikoto who was full of hindsight wisdom.

For a while, he felt his throat become dry. Then, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva...

‘Can I learn that skill too, coach?’
