Chapter 14 only brought KD down to 10, which looks good!
Chapter 14 only brought KD down to 10, which looks good!
Su Ningning was taken aback when she realized that Li Bing was actually praising her seriously.
"Huh? Bro, didn't you say you didn't play Delta Force? You know about this?"
"Yeah, you used to get angry every time we talked about games."
Li Bing withdrew his gaze without changing his expression, concealing the guilty conscience in his eyes.
"The awareness in FPS games is the same. Being able to ambush such a 'strong player' means you have good talent."
After saying that, he silently added in his mind: After all, you were once the world's number one FPS hunter, so you are indeed very skilled.
"That's right!" Su Ningning immediately raised her chin proudly, took out her phone, found her short video account, and handed it to him.
"Look! I edited this kill clip and posted it on a short video platform, and it already has over 10,000 likes!"
Li Bing leaned over and glanced at it.
The video's cover image is a screenshot of his bee doctor character lying on the ground, and the title reads: "A newbie who's only been playing for half a month has stumbled upon a terrible bastard!"
The comments section is full of "hahahaha", and someone even commented (five minutes ago).
"I can't believe it was you who was hiding behind him! Hahaha, I'm going to save this!"
His hand holding the chopsticks suddenly paused, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
Then, feigning anger, he gently tapped Su Ningning's forehead.
"How many times have I told you not to go to internet cafes? They're smoky and full of smoking blond guys. What if you get kidnapped?"
Upon hearing this, Su Ningning's face immediately fell, and she pouted with a wronged expression.
"But brother, you always took me there when we were in high school!"
"Back then you taught me how to play Counter-Strike, saying that playing games would improve my reaction time. Now why won't you let me go anymore?"
Li Bing: "..."
He was speechless for a moment, unable to utter a word for a long time.
Indeed, before he retired from his professional career, he would occasionally take Su Ningning to internet cafes.
She was so young back then that she couldn't even beat the AI, but now she can actually outmaneuver her.
He quickly changed the subject, took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Su Ningning's hand, his tone softening.
"What I mean is, internet cafes are no good. If you want to play, go to the e-sports arena in the city center. It's nice and comfortable, no one smokes, and the machines are new."
"Here's the money. Next time you go out, go there. Don't go to that internet cafe at the end of the alley again, understand?"
Su Ningning looked at the two hundred yuan in her hand and instantly smiled again, rushing over to hug him.
"I knew you were the best, bro! I'll definitely go to the esports arena next time!"
Li Bing breathed a sigh of relief and quickly changed the subject, pointing to her schoolbag.
"Isn't next week the monthly exam? Have you studied enough? If you don't do well, Aunt Zhang will cut off your allowance."
The moment the monthly exam was mentioned, Su Ningning's face fell, and she muttered, "I know, I know."
Then, after packing up the thermos, she slung her backpack over her shoulder and walked out the door, turning back to shout at him as she reached the door.
"Don't forget, don't tell Aunt Zhang that I go to the internet cafe after school!"
"Or I'll tell your older sister about the time you secretly went out with another girl!"
Li Bing smiled and waved to her, "Okay, I told you you came to my place for dinner. Go back now and be careful on the road."
---
Li Bing finally breathed a sigh of relief the moment the door closed.
He slumped in his chair, feeling both amused and exasperated. He raised his hand to rub his temples, feeling that today's ordeal was more tiring than playing games all afternoon.
He picked up his phone and opened the schedule for the Sea Urchin Cup that Haotian had just sent him.
The competition is tomorrow, and the first-place prize is indeed 100 million.
There was no capital sharing or any messy sponsorship requirements; it was a purely privately run event, and all the invited guests were top Delta streamers.
His fingertips lightly tapped the number 100 million on the screen.
Just now, when Su Ningning was scrolling through short videos, she muttered, "The latest tablet is so convenient for online classes, and you can even draw on it."
The air conditioner in the orphanage has been in use for almost ten years, and its cooling effect is very poor in the summer.
Aunt Zhang always says she can't bear to spend the money, and there are still a few new children whose tuition fees haven't been raised yet.
Previously, he disliked the dirty nature of capital in the professional scene and didn't want to touch any competitions, but this time is different.
One million is just enough to solve all the problems.
Li Bing turned her head to look at the Delta login screen on the computer, a faint smile curving her lips.
He wasn't familiar with maps before and was too lazy to memorize routes, so he relied entirely on his shooting skills to win games.
It seems I really need to study this game more carefully now.
Li Bing sat in front of the computer and first opened a short video platform to search for tutorials on top-secret aerospace sites.
The first video contains a complete list of 32 top-secret aerospace ambush locations; even newbies can become Rat Kings after watching it.
The title claims it's the most detailed online, guaranteeing you'll learn it.
He clicked on it and scrolled to the dry goods section.
"In the Blue Room, you can't be seen from outside at all if you're squatting here. People passing by can just get their feet trimmed, and you're guaranteed to get kills."
"Also, there's the central control bridge as a pre-aiming point. As long as someone comes out from the second position, you can set up here and hold them off, ensuring a safe start and a kill."
"After shutting down the centrifuge, make sure to hide in this blind spot to prevent anyone from rushing over to break up the fight..."
Li Bing listened for three minutes, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
What Blue Room? When and where were they taking people away?
He didn't even know where these places were; hearing their names was like listening to gibberish.
There isn't even a panoramic map for comparison, so looking at it is a waste of time.
He fast-forwarded through ten minutes and then clicked the "X" in the upper right corner.
"This tutorial is so wild, it's full of unconventional techniques!"
He leaned back in his chair and grumbled, "You just have to go in and play a few more rounds; you'll remember it after a couple of runs."
Then he suddenly remembered that Haotian's WeChat account had been active before.
It was a message sent by Haotian half an hour ago; he was busy dealing with Su Ningning and didn't see it.
[Haotian: Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you, the Sea Urchin Cup requires all participants to post a short registration video before the competition, preferably with some personal highlights, so the organizers can help you attract viewers. By the way, don't reveal your participation in the Sea Urchin Cup yet. I'm going to create some drama, a newcomer rising to the top, and leave the other streamers confused!]
Li Bing glanced at the message before realizing what was happening.
He had been playing on an account borrowed from Hajiyao, and had only played three games on his own account. In one of those games, he was ambushed by Su Ningning at the withdrawal point, and his stats were so bad they were unbearable to look at.
To create highlight footage, you definitely need to use your own account.
He paused for a moment, then directly opened the live streaming app.
Since I'm going to level up my account anyway, I might as well do a live stream. If people watch, I can also build up some popularity.
As soon as he clicked the start button, the number of viewers in the live stream jumped up instantly.
17, 39, 72.
In less than ten seconds, nearly a hundred people rushed in, all of them fans who had been drawn in by Li Bing's performance.
The comments section was flooded with messages.
"Holy crap? Is Brother Qingchun back from the dead? He just went offline less than half an hour ago and is back online?"
"I bet five cents he was just driven crazy by his terrible sense of direction, so he secretly came here to brush up on his map skills!"
Li Bing didn't turn on the camera; only her clear voice came through the microphone, without any emotional fluctuations.
"It's nothing serious, I just suddenly remembered that I need to post two videos on the new account, so I just gathered some materials and stuff."
He paused, then added.
"I saw in the comments that this game always seems to focus on K/D ratios?"
"Too low would be beneath me. I just played casually today, only managing to get the KD ratio to 10, just to make it look rounder."
