Chapter 266: Close combat in a shooting game?
For the initial character of GGO, the system will give 1000 gretid as the initial game funds.

But with this level of funds, one can only buy a small optical weapon or a used live ammunition revolver.

GGO's firearms equipment is divided into two types. One is optical firearms, which are characterized by being light and fast, but the disadvantage is that half of the damage will be blocked by the player's "protective shield".

Live-fire guns do not have such disadvantages, but in order to be more realistic, these guns require reloading operations, and the weight and recoil of the guns are also major disadvantages.

Due to the GGO game currency conversion system, this game can naturally be played with real money.

But it is obvious that Seiya, who originally entered GGO to make extra money, would not really choose to spend money.

If Kikuoka Seijiro could reimburse the expenses for this, then Seiya wouldn't mind, but it was obvious that this was impossible.

After taking a look at the gambling game in the mall where Kirito obtained the initial funds, which was the gambling game where one had to dodge bullets and touch the cowboy NPC, Seiya finally shook his head and walked into the weapon shop nearby.

"If you're a beginner, I recommend buying this small blaster."

In response to Seiya's consultation, the NPC girl in the weapon shop gave her suggestions in a very humane way.

Because for GGO novices, optical firearms that are lightweight and have a higher hit rate are more friendly. Those who like to use live ammunition firearms are all GGO veterans or professional players.

However, Seiya did not choose to listen to the NPC girl's advice, but spent 500 gretid to buy the cheapest used revolver in the store.

The reason why Seiya chose the used revolver was not to show off, but mainly because the other party recommended a small ray gun, which cost 1000 gretid.

If he bought that thing, he would be completely penniless.

He left 500gretid on purpose because Seiya just saw on the game interface that besides gambling games, there is another way to save money quickly.

This method is actually the "bounty competition" that can be often seen in GGO.

As a massively multiplayer online role-playing shooting game, in addition to some large-scale official competitions, there are naturally many PvP games where players gamble and fight, as well as some small-scale official competitions.

The "bounty competition" that Seiya just saw on the game interface is this kind of small-scale competition organized by the official.

A total of one hundred players will be teleported to a map to compete until the final winner emerges.

The registration fee to participate is 500gretid. If you are eliminated, you will lose everything. But if you can stay until the end, you can directly get 100000gretid!

Seiya thought that this was a good opportunity for him, as he could not only obtain initial funding but also hone his skills, so he participated without hesitation.

After paying the registration fee of 500gretid, a countdown interface soon appeared in front of Seiya.

When the countdown in front of him reached 0:00, his body was directly teleported to a desert.

“Da da da da da——!”

As Seiya emerged from the desert, before he could even survey his surroundings, an infrared beam of light struck him. Almost instantly, sensing danger, Seiya leaped and rolled, dodging a machine gun fire from a man not far away!

As the bullets swept across the desert, a large amount of yellow sand was also splashed up. However, until the opponent completely emptied the magazine, he did not touch Seiya at all.

Seeing Seiya's agile and nimble skills, the opponent was obviously stunned. You know, the machine gun in his hand is a new model with the fastest firing rate!

Moreover, almost when he was teleported to the map, he saw Seiya teleporting not far behind him.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have been shot to pieces in that situation. But that guy not only reacted, but also perfectly avoided his machine gun fire. What kind of outrageous reflexes is that!
The map environment of GGO is very close to reality, which is probably one of the characteristics of shooting games.

The biggest feature of desert terrain is that it is difficult to find cover, and the sand underfoot greatly affects movement.

After taking a look at the used revolver in Seiya's hand, the man who had just suddenly attacked Seiya couldn't help but sneer.

Before, after seeing Seiya's evasive work, he thought he had met a master, but after all, it turned out that the other party was just a newbie using a novice weapon.

Don't ask him how he knew that, because if he wasn't a complete novice, no one would choose a used revolver as a weapon.

The used revolver has a small ammunition capacity, a short range, and a very slow rate of fire. Because it is a used item, it will occasionally jam and pause. It is arguably the worst weapon in GGO. Not to mention using it as a primary weapon, no one would even use such a piece of junk as a secondary weapon.

My main weapon is a light machine gun, which is a great advantage for me. Given the range and rate of fire of the opponent's weapon, my hit rate is absolutely impressive.

So after taking a look at the distance between Seiya and himself, the other party immediately changed the magazine without paying any attention to the people around him.

Seiya had never experienced the so-called GGO before, but he knew that when the opponent was changing the magazine, it was a good time for him to take action.

“Bang—bang—!”

Accompanied by a puff of white smoke, Seiya raised the used revolver and fired two shots in succession.

Although his current vision is not much different from that of an 8x scope, the fact is that when it comes to gunfights, simply having super vision is not enough; you also need skills and techniques.

Seiya fired two shots in a row, one bullet went straight through the opponent's crotch, and the other shot successfully hit the opponent's kidney.

Since the old revolver had limited damage and the hits were not on vital parts, the man hit by Seiya was not eliminated, but only had his health bar reduced.

"Tsk, what a bunch of crap luck during the novice protection period! He even managed to hit me at this distance with that crappy used revolver!"

The man didn't seem to expect that he would be hit, but he was not panicked at all. He thought that it was just Seiya's bad luck. As long as he finished reloading, the opponent's broken revolver would be no match for his.

Taking a look at the old-fashioned revolver in his hand, Seiya quickly realized the gap between his weapon and the opponent's, so he did not attack rashly, but sprinted directly towards the opponent's position at an extremely astonishing speed.

So what if the hit rate is low and the range is short? As long as you shoot close to the opponent, are you still afraid that you won’t be able to blow up the opponent’s head?
The man who noticed Seiya's actions also finished reloading his gun. He looked at Seiya who was rushing towards him with a mocking expression and said, "Idiot, you want to fight in close combat in a shooting game? You really think you are a god of war!"
