No more doubts!
Fight!
And... kill!
Second Squad Jam... game, start!
The town, huh?
LLENN, check that out.
It's the field's boundary.
Oh, I see.
No matter who they are, no one can get over that, huh?
I think that surrounds the entire map.
Then we're in the farthest corner, right?
So I wonder where...
Oh! There are tracks. You can use vehicles in GGO, can't you?
Maybe we can get a choo choo train to run?
And where would we go?
A bigger town...
Yeah, to buy new clothes.
Let's do that after I kill Pito.
Roger!
We're here.
Okay, okay!
So which way should we go?
The hilly area could be dangerous.
Too many vantage points.
It's sniper territory.
Avoid it at all costs.
Gotcha!
Below it... is that a baseball stadium?
Was it that big?
This is Earth in the future, so maybe they are that big.
I wonder what this is.
Maybe the big building is a school?
Below that is a rocky mountain range...
Fuka, did you memorize the terrain?
How can I remember all that?
In ALO, I moved around by flying. I didn't need a map!
What should I do?
It's okay. I've got it.
Besides, we can look at the map anytime.
Just try not to lose track of where you are.
If you get lost, stay put and call me.
Roger.
13:04...
To start, we need to check the first satellite scan.
That will verify if this is a safe place.
This scan will allow us to discern our position,
avoid the enemy as much as possible, and head towards wherever Pito is.
Then I'll use everything I've got to kill her!
No sign of the enemy here.
Same here. I'm bored.
All right, look at the Terminal.
If the enemy's nearby, we'll hightail it out of here.
Roger.
Anyway, I just have to touch one after another to look for them, right?
Leave it to me!
All right. There aren't any enemies nearby.
Where's Pito?
Where? Where? Where?
Don't tell me...
Oh my.
LLENN and her partner are the farthest away.
LLENN and her partner are on the northwest edge. They're more than 8 km north.
What should we do?
Let's strike the closest team first.
The favorites to win were intentionally spaced out.
What's going on?
For her to be the farthest away, of all things!
Dammit!
Young lady, life doesn't always work out the way you want it to.
But even so, you've made it this far.
I've been watching you.
Am I wrong?
You're right. That's right.
We'll head southeast.
Anyone who gets in our way, we'll crush them, one by one!
Booby Trap
All right, clear!
I'll catch up.
Come on, come on, where?
Where are they? Find them...
There!
I'll approach from the rear and take them all out at once.
Okay!
Take care of the first stike.
This is getting exciting.
The Ambush Fairy and Grenade Fairy will massacre yo—
Fuka!
S-Sorry!
I'm sorry!
No, I'm sorry.
I forgot to tell you to watch out for traps.
Not here! They're not dead!
Did they run away?
If fingers or limbs get severed, they come back after two minutes, but...
They can't have gotten far.
LLENN, leave me here and run!
Then they must be in that house.
If you die.
But you know...
Stay here. Get as low as you can.
I'm going to give them a taste of the SJ Champion's skill.
Next!
Two!
Three!
Two more!
Nice, Fuka!
I'm a woman who isn't satisfied until she repays her debts.
Amazing! They're not top contenders for nothin'!
Firing off a grenade at close range! And that brutal attack!
I can still feel it in my crotch.
Me too.
You guys see that?
That's the power of my LLENN and her partner.
Oh yeah, it was incredible, but neither of them belong to you.
Machine gun! It doesn't get any better than this!
Six bodies confirmed. Eliminated.
No sign of the enemy nearby.
All right. We'll wait for the next scan,
then follow the north rampart down the mountain.
Stand by, but be on guard.
Materialize your spare magazine.
Keep up the pressure! Do it like we normally do!
Come on, come on, come on!
Three of us bought it!
Let's regroup and try again!
A sniper? That gorilla woman?
Sorry.
I can't see it!
I can't see the Bullet Line.
Shooting without a Line from that distance, those guys—
I did it! First blood!
That worked great!
Shirley, you could've shot, too.
No, thanks. You guys go ahead.
This is boring!
Hey, M. Why are we idling away our time here?
Everyone's shooting. Isn't it about time we got off this mountain?
No.
Why? Could it be you don't want to fight?
Are you going to chicken out like last time?
It's a plan.
What do you guys think?
I'll follow the leader's orders.
That was in the contract.
Is that so?
There's no need to take part in trivial melee.
Is that how you want to die?
Is that your wish?
No, but this is boring.
It's tedious.
Be patient a while longer.
Like I said, this is part of the plan, Pito.
Since you've made me the leader, I'll ask that you follow orders.
All right, you win for now.
But if you die, I'm gonna do what I want.
Don't worry. I'll leave the formidable enemies with bared fangs to you, Pito.
For example, who?
For example, someone like LLENN.
That pink bunny's fangs are very sharp.
Yes! My legs grew back!
All right!
And thanks to the emergency med kit, my hit points are back to normal, too!
Woo-hoo! My legs! I'm so happy, I'm so happy!
I'm so happy! I'm so happy!
I won't make a blunder like that again. I'll carefully watch where I walk!
And then I'll taunt the enemy like, "Sir, you look exhausted!"
Yeah. But there could be wires placed waist-high and at head height too, so be careful.
And keep in mind that when there's an obvious trap, there could be another one nearby.
A trap to lure you into a trap... That's playing dirty.
That's how you fight in GGO. You'll get used to it eventually.
It's even got me checking for wires in doorways in real life now.
You've gotten so tough.
It makes me happy!
The scan is about to start.
All right.
There's PM4.
I'm happy to see them, but they're still far away.
So what should we do?
Let's go after the closest team that's by the train station.
Here.
As it's the middle of town, I think it'll have a good vantage point.
If the platform is made of concrete, bullets won't pierce it.
My guess is they're positioned between the railway lines, lying in wait to spring an ambush.
Another team that's holed up? The chickens.
Let's run 'em over with a train!
If we can get a train to run.
Let's use these houses as cover as we approach them.
Hey, LLENN, to make up for my blunder before,
let me get a piece of the action.
Okay, but did you have something in mind?
Yeah. A plan where I wipe the enemy team out without you firing a single shot.
There's no team we can engage in the next ten minutes.
Did they run away? Dammit!
You bastards!
Don't you have any balls?
Oh my, those are some dirty words.
If it's in-game, it's fine. It's called role-playing.
Fine, but if you do it too much, dirty words will slip out in real life.
Like when we're riding the subway together...
Ugh! That would be... embarrassing.
Right?
So say it again, but elegantly.
Like a lady!
Understood.
Everyone, have you no testicles?
The favorites to win are by that row of houses.
Both teams are far, but it can't be helped.
We'll head west.
Ugh, I'm bored!
Hurry up and come kill me already.
LLENN!
All right. It's clear.
Nice. This place is good.
Tell me which way.
Roger.
This direction. About 300 meters.
Okay, okay. Got it.
We're good.
All right, LLENN. I'm counting on you.
All right, Fuka. I'm counting on you.
What was that?
Did somebody fart?
A grenade! Crap!
Calm down. That wasn't even close.
They looked at the scan and fired in the general direct—
Close.
North side, five meters ahead of that, two members.
Roger!
Hit.
I'm going to launch the grenades using an arched attack.
With all the houses, the enemy and I can't see each other.
But you get to a safe place and give me instructions.
All you have to do then is tell me how far off my first shot was.
And you can hit them with just that?
Do you know how many hours I spent practicing?
A lot.
A battle isn't all about fighting while looking into the enemy's eyes.
I figured out that this weapon would be well-suited for a strategy like this.
So I measured distances and practiced hitting targets by feel.
Right now, if I knew just the distance, I could close my eyes and fire off a grenade.
However, I need to have accurate guidance.
All right. I'll do it.
But during that time, you'll be defenseless and unable to move, Fuka.
Before, it was as if I was dead.
So don't worry about this zombie!
Eighteen meters ahead of that one, one member crouching down.
Gotcha!
Hit.
Fifty meters back, along the track.
Two members are running, trying to get away.
I'll get them.
Hit.
One left.
He crossed the platform and is running away due east.
It's okay if he gets away, but I'd like to kill him if possible.
Then I'll empty my clip!
Here I go!
All right!
Fuka, you wiped them out!
That was brilliant! Great! Wonderful!
I'm moved!
What can I say?
That's how it's done.
Let's meet up, then go to the station!
Look at the scan!
We'll head towards the dome next!
She wiped out an entire team with 12 grenades?
Mobility and firepower...
Did you see that? That's the power of my LLENN and her partner!
- We told you, she's not yours! - We told you, she's not yours!
Pito is...
All right!
What does this mean? LLENN. Seven teams are in the same place.
Isn't that unlikely?
Dammit...
Pito, look. You'll find it amusing.
So what's going on?
The teams near Pito! They're conspiring together!
What do you mean?
They've agreed to a temporary cease-fire!
I think the leaders of each team gathered
and then someone who's a good negotiator convinced the teams to cooperate.
Now they're a team of dozens of people
that intends to drive M's team from the mountain they're holding.
That solves the mystery!
How lame can you get?
Pathetic bastards.
They really think teaming up will help them win?
I don't know. They do outnumber them by a lot.
M is a superior player and he's got that shield,
but that won't protect him from enemy fire coming from above and behind.
Either way, all we can do is wait for the result.
Well, I suppose you could call it a strategy.
They should've asked us to participate too, though.
And would we have participated, Leader?
No way. We would've pretended to listen and then slaughtered them the first chance we got.
This is a battle royale.
Allied teams don't exist.
Conspiring together, huh? They should've asked us to join.
What should we do, Leader?
For the time being, I want to see what happens.
I guess we'll stay hidden or keep running until then.
Seven teams, for a maximum of 42 people?
Pito's in trouble! Trouble, trouble, trouble!
Hey, calm down! You're overreacting.
There's no point in losing your head.
But no matter how good Pito and M are, against those numbers...
So will you get there in time if you run like that?
Even if I went by myself at full speed, I wouldn't make it.
If they're a resourceful team,
I'm sure they'll escape if they judge there's no chance of winning.
Don't worry.
I-I hope you're right...
Pito, you'd better not die before I kill you!
They're so clever!
This is lovely!
What do you intend to do?
With those numbers, and without their leaders,
it's going to be tough.
Should we withdraw?
What we're gonna do is obvious!
We'll ambush and massacre them all.
Next time: Ten-Minute Massacre.
