Chapter 20: Capture the Bear in The Jar

Translator: Noodletown Translations

Editor: Noodletown Translations

Little Bear held the gun of metaphysics, the S686, which was powerful at close range, yet the winding tunnel in front of her still looked unbeatable.

It was because…..

At the end of the tunnel, a 98K Demon King was waiting for her.

From the bullet comments in the chat of her stream, Little Bear had learned that more than 20 players of the Bear Defenders had been wiped out by this 98K Demon King singlehandedly. That was an unbelievable thought!

A strong man.

A super strong man.

A god-like super strong man.

How could she, such a weak girl, fight against him!

So.

She wasn’t trying to be a coward.

Rather, she really couldn’t afford to mess with this Linye who had a 98K…

So, Little Bear changed her original strategy of fighting Lin Ye head-on. After getting her emotions ready for acting, she spoke in the public voice chat using a cute tone, “Little Big Brother Lin Ye, we’re both streamers on Douyu, so can you let me win this time? I haven’t won in months, so please, will you help me out this time? ~Mua~”

[TL Note: Little Big Brother is an internet slang term in China. Usually, girls say that to address a young man they are intimate with.]

Honeytrap.

At the moment of life and death, Little Bear took out her strongest weapon without hesitation.

Little Bear’s voice was pleasant and also very seductive. Coupled with that charming and beautiful face, her cute display of affection made her viewers roar, and the bullet comments popped up all over her chat.

“Ahhhh, Little Bear, Little Bear, I’m begging you to talk normally!”

“That’s right, Noob Bear, the weight on your chest is too seductive for you to play a cute character.”

“Oh shoot, my heart, heart… it’s a heart attack.”

“Oh gosh, I get goosebumps when Little Bear tries too hard to be cute! I can’t stand it.”

“No way, no way, how can my Little Bear be that cute!”

For a moment, everyone in her stream was roasting her since her usual image was more comical, and she rarely let out her feminine charm.

Little Bear’s stream style had always been the same with the face of a goddess and the personality of a comedian.

Of course, nothing was absolute in this world.

Although Little Bear’s cute display of affection gave many of her viewers goosebumps, some also went into a moment of silence after they saw her cute moves. Then, they turned off the speakers and took out a small packet of tissues before pulling out a few sheets, locking the door, and silently turning on their private media player.

Thirty seconds later.

As drops dripped down, the silence was gold.

However, Lin Ye responded right after Little Bear finished her words in her cute voice. He said indifferently in the public voice chat, “We all have our destiny. As for who wins today and secures the chicken dinner, words are useless. Let our skills speak.”

“Let our skills speak?” Little Bear had an incredulous expression on her face.

Lin Ye nodded and said in a light tone, “Yeah, our skills. ”

Little Bear was fidgeting in front of the camera as she said in a huff, “But I’m a girl. Can’t you be a little gentlemanly and let me win this time?”

Lin Ye disdainfully pinched his lips and said, “If you want to secure the chicken dinner, then kill me. As for the rest, stop daydreaming.”

At that moment, the Little Bear in front of Lin Ye was a prey that was worth a rare chest. How could he possibly let go of such a precious chance?

Letting her secure the chicken dinner? That option doesn’t exist!

Big chested girls were everywhere on the streets, but there was only one rare chest at the moment.

It was clear in Lin Ye’s mind which one was most important.

Besides, he was not familiar with Little Bear personally, so there were much fewer reasons to let her win.

When a stranger meets a stranger in this game, it would be like a sword meeting a sword.

This was how it should be.

However, Lin Ye’s cold reaction caused Little Bear, who was hiding inside Shelter, to change her expression.

Could he be…

Could he be the legendary straight man of steel?

She even used the honeytrap technique, yet he didn’t even react at all! What kind of person was he!? He didn’t waver at all!

Not just Little Bear, but even the viewers of both streams were stunned when they saw this scene.

“Wow, Little Bear’s vicious ‘cute’ attack got turned down so easily? Who the hell is this Lin Ye?”

“Hahahaha, Noob Bear was simply playing the lute to a cow. My belt was already loosened, yet this Lin Ye didn’t even react at all.”

“Damn, damn. Let skills talk. Let skills talk.”

“There’s something about this streamer; he feels like a ruthless person.”

“Oh gosh. He doesn’t even care about a great beauty like Little Bear. Could Smug Streamer be gay?”

Many of the male viewers put themselves in Lin Ye’s shoes. If they were in Lin Ye’s position, as soon as Little Bear begged for mercy in her cute tone, they would have rushed into Shelter with a pan only, sending her a chicken dinner.

After all, the number of people who adored and wanted to pursue an extremely beautiful goddess like Little Bear could literally form a line from the Oriental Pearl to Disney Park.

So why not give it a shot when they could simp up close?

Maybe….

Simps might end up with something in return!

Who knows!

That was why the viewers of both streams couldn’t understand Lin Ye’s cold reaction.

In their eyes, they would be happy enough if their goddess could send them goodnight messages. They couldn’t even imagine the idea of her speaking to them with the cute display of affection.

It would blow their minds and send them into the air!

Little Bear was also shocked by Lin Ye, so much that she was even doubting her own charm.

It shouldn’t be….

That’s not right!

How could he not react at all to such a cute beauty like me!

Suddenly, a spark flashed in Little Bear’s mind, and she suddenly asked hopefully, “Do you not know me? Do you not know what I look like?”

Little Bear’s tone was full of anticipation.

In her mind, she thought out the possibility that Lin Ye might not be familiar with her, or not even know her at all. That was why he remained so calm when she attacked with the honeytrap technique.

Right.

That must be it.

There definitely isn’t something wrong with my beauty.

“Little Bear…” Lin Ye’s voice paused briefly, and he seemed to be recalling something. After a short moment, he said faintly. “I know, aren’t you that popular internet-celebrity-faced female streamer who’s very famous on Douyu.”

[TL Note: Internet celebrity face is a slang term used to describe those who have a sharp chin, tall nose, and big eyes. Many girls in China go through plastic surgery to look like that, so it has a negative connotation.]

Lin Ye spoke in a very calm tone as if it was no big deal and clearly reflected what was in his mind.

Popular female streamer on Douyu… Internet celebrity face… Famous model on Weibo…

Those terms had always been Little Bear’s labels in Lin Ye’s mind. In his opinion, they made sense.

After all, what the majority of the public chooses is usually reliable.

However, the words that Lin Ye said were so shocking for Little Bear that she couldn’t speak for a long time.

Internet celebrity face…

You’re the one with an internet celebrity face!

Your whole family has internet celebrity faces!

I’m unique and dashing with great beauty, okay?

What internet celebrity face…

It doesn’t exist with me!

“Waaa, Lin Ye, you are so annoying! I’m going to kill you, I’m going to kill you!” Little Bear waved her cute little fists in front of the camera as if she was going to blow Lin Ye’s head off with them.

Little Bear seemed to be mad to her viewers in front of the camera, but there was very profound and deep joy in her eyes.

After all, it wasn’t like she had ever had plastic surgery before; she was born with a natural template for the internet celebrity face!

A pretty internet celebrity face…

Little Bear hid her joy well, and there was no trace of it at all as she swung her fists in front of the camera. Even the viewers of her stream assumed that she was really angry.

So angry.

However, this time, the viewers in Little Bear’s stream didn’t share the same hatred. Instead, they were about to go crazy laughing because of Lin Ye’s words.

“LMAO, I’m dying of laughter. I completely understand, hearing this streamer say that Little Bear has an internet celebrity face!”

“That’s right, internet celebrity face, internet celebrity legs, internet celebrity chest, and internet celebrity fan base. Isn’t that everything about Little Bear?”

“This Smug Streamer is so talented, giving such a perfect and concise description. I will give it a like.”

“Yeah, since this Lin Ye guy said it, I see more and more of the internet celebrity face on Little Bear. Her pretty face is like the perfect plastic surgery template for the hospitals in South Korea.”

“Best description. Period.”

“Get my nine-toothed rake; I’m going to give the Smug Streamer a two-eight haircut, hahahaha.”

For a moment, not only was Little Bear’s stream filled with many bullet comments, but Lin Ye’s also was.

Little Bear’s internet celebrity face…

That was brilliant!

The effect of Lin Ye and Little Bear’s interaction was extraordinary, making the popularity points of both streams rise steadily.

This Lin Ye seems to be suitable for streaming; why haven’t I heard much of his name before on Douyu? Little Bear looked at the dense bullet comments on her stream with joy and thought with quite a bit of confusion.

After all, in her opinion, a powerful and mechanically gifted streamer who was also entertaining like Lin Ye should have already gotten popular in the PUBG section of Douyu!

As the verbal confrontation between the two ended, the blue zone shrunk and eventually fused with the current safe zone.

There was a brief pause.

Then, the new safe zone appeared.

The new safe zone was still located in the woodlands outside Shelter, but the inside of Shelter where Little Bear was at had been excluded from the new safe zone.

If she wanted to win this game and secure the chicken dinner, then she would have to make a move and leave her hideout.

“Ahhhh, why is it happening again!? Why is the new safe zone so unlucky for me?” Little Bear looked at the newly refreshed safe zone on the map, and the profound happiness in her eyes disappeared and was instantly replaced with a sad look as if Heaven wanted to doom her.

After all, she would have to break out of Shelter and head for the new safe zone, which meant that she was bound to have a fierce confrontation with Lin Ye.

“What to do, what to do…”

The circle of destiny, also known as the safe zone that was favorable for her, was now gone, and the circle of doom was here. Little Bear panicked as she knew she had to fight now. If she was no longer lucky, then would she really have a chance of beating the 98K Demon King with an S686 in her hand?

I…

I’m definitely going to lose!

Although Little Bear had said that she was going to slay the god while in Rozhok just moments ago, she knew what her actual skill level in this game was.

If she charged with her eyes closed, and in close range combat situations, even if it was a double-barreled S686 against a bolt-action sniper rifle 98K, she wouldn’t even stand a 30 percent chance of winning.

After all, the one hunting her and stepping on her lifeline was Lin Ye, who single-handedly slaughtered the entire army of Bear Defenders with his 98K!

What to do, what to do….

There were 55 seconds left until the blue zone would shrink again, so there really wasn’t much time left for Little Bear.

At the moment, a lot of mechanical players were giving her ideas in the stream. After she read most of them, she found that they were all telling her to go head-to-head or pull some fancy moves and then go head-to-head.

What’s the difference!?

How could a weak girl like her win against her fierce opponent who was a straight-headed man!

As for the honeytrap technique…

It had already been proven that it wouldn’t work.

Little Bear couldn’t think of any other good ideas on the spot, and she couldn’t outrun him or win against him in a fight. Was she really going to be hunted down by Lin Ye’s 98K this game?

No, absolutely not.

She was Little Bear, not Little Pig; she would not die so easily.

At the same time, just as Little Bear was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do, a slightly teasing voice sounded in the public voice chat.

“Little Bear, I can give you the gentlemanly manners you want…” said Lin Ye with a slight pause and a faint smile. “For this game, if you are able to run out of Shelter then I’ll let you have the chicken dinner. How’s that?”

“Let me have the chicken dinner? Really?” Little Bear was surprised to hear that.

“Yeah, if you can run out of Shelter alive when the blue zone reaches the new safe zone, then I’ll let you win.” Lin Ye’s voice once again appeared in the public voice chat. Although there were background noises, it was enough to surprise Little Bear.

But on second thought, Little Bear felt like something was weird. With her brain back online, she asked him. “Are you trying to trick me out of Shelter and then shoot me in the head with that 98K?”

Little Bear was really suspicious since the man, who had just said that they would fight based on their skills, was going to let her win this round with a condition.

Lin Ye laughed and shook his head. “I won’t shoot when you try to run out of the blue zone. As long as you can run out of Shelter, I’ll let you win.”

“Are you sure?” Little Bear still looked skeptical.

“Of course.” Lin Ye nodded.

“Let me win as long as I can run out of Shelter. Whoever doesn’t keep their word is a little dog!” Little Bear’s voice was becoming excited as she spoke.

“Alright, a gentleman’s word is a promise.” Lin Ye confirmed. “As long as you can run out of Shelter when the blue zone reaches the new safe zone, I’ll let you win.”

Little Bear’s expression gradually began to get wicked when she heard his words.

Secure the chicken dinner.

Her chance at securing the chicken dinner for the second time in solo mode was about to come after several months!

From Little Bear’s point of view, as long as Lin Ye didn’t use a gun to stop her, then running out of Shelter would be nothing difficult for her to do.

She could win this. Totally.

It seems like this Lin Ye isn’t hopeless after all; maybe he was just pretending to be a straight man of steel.

Maybe he was pretending to be chic so he could attract her attention. This way of picking up a girl was just really…

Elementary.

Too elementary.

Little Bear suddenly felt like her charm and intelligence were off the charts. She felt like she had seen through Lin Ye’s every move.

Meanwhile.

The viewers on Lin Ye’s stream were also puzzled by his decision just now.

“Wow, letting her win as long as she runs out of Shelter? Streamer, you are being too much of a simp! I can’t take it anymore.”

“Smug Streamer, did you just get a hard-on after seeing Little Bear? I can’t believe you’re going to let her win!”

“Clumsy acting here, Streamer. I wanted to give you a perfect score with that answer back then, but now you only deserve a zero.”

“Hahaha, just now, I thought you were a straight man of steel. I didn’t think you were such a simp. What a disappointment.”

“Hey, Streamer, simps end with nothing, understand?”

For a moment, Lin Ye’s stream was filled with questions and doubts, and these viewers were also suspecting that what he had just said was intentional to get Little Bear’s attention so that he could find a chance to get close with her.

What a treacherous man!

Lin Ye glanced at the bullet comments as he shook his head and laughed; he wasn’t going to explain himself.

Simp?

Impossible.

He would never be a simp in his life.

He just chose to give Little Bear an option of what looked like a way to survive but contained no hope.

Hunt mission…

If the prey was desperate from the beginning, then what was the fun in that?

He hopped on his jeep and hit the reverse gear.

Lin Ye got into the jeep amidst the puzzled eyes of his viewers, and he backed up precisely towards the entrance of Shelter.

A perfect reverse parking.

The Jeep parked precisely into the entrance of Selter and left no gap.

He got off the jeep.

Lin Ye was jammed by the wall and instantly appeared in front of the jeep.

Meanwhile, the entrance to Shelter in front of him was already blocked by the dark green jeep completely.

Finally, many of the witty viewers in Lin Ye’s stream discovered his intentions.

“Wow, Smug Streamer, are you trying to block the entrance with your car and catch the bear in the jar?”

“LOL. Catch the bear in the jar, nice.”

“Smug Streamer, are you stupid? You used the jeep to block the entrance, but Little Bear can just come out by jumping into the car, switching a seat, and jumping out.”

“That’s right, the idea’s nice, but just a bit not well-thought-out.”

“Little Bear is just a noob; she’s not stupid. Streamer, you’re not treating her like a human being at all!”

There were still a lot of viewers in the stream who voiced their negative opinions. After all, Lin Ye’s move was a bit showy but had a very big flaw.

Lin Ye looked at the bullet comments in his stream and smiled slightly. “Little Bear wants to switch seats? That would be impossible!”

The next second, Lin Ye directly took out a frag grenade.

Ding!

The ring was pulled off.

Then, he right-clicked and switched to a low throw.

Lin Ye counted the seconds in his mind as he moved backward.

Four… Three… Two… One…

Throw.

Bang!

The frag grenade hit the ground with a crisp noise, then it bounced a couple times and rolled under the jeep.

Boom!

It was a violent explosion.

The jeep was blasted by a frag grenade, and half of the HP disappeared in an instant.

Meanwhile, Lin Ye also took out his rifle and started firing at the jeep crazily.

Ta-da-da!

Ta-da-da!

Ta-da-da!

After a round of frantic gunfire, the jeep’s remaining half full HP bar was quickly emptied. Then, the vehicle directly exploded.

BOOM!

An astonishing explosion of fire rushed towards the sky.

The next moment, the dark green jeep was destroyed and turned into a pile of charred wreckage.

The loud explosion shocked and alerted the viewers of both streams as well as Little Bear who was feeling joyous in Shelter.

Uh…

What just happened!?

Inexplicably, an ominous feeling suddenly rose in Little Bear’s mind.
