Chapter 2

"Haha, got ambushed by yours truly, didn't you?"

A eunuch-like voice resembling a rooster's crow came from the CT side's voice channel.

【Tyloo substitute】 looked at the 1500 dollars he'd just earned and his 2-0-1 record on the scoreboard, unable to help but curl his lips:

"I told you, the other side is just a bunch of noobs. Watch how your big brother operates."

Saying this, he picked up the sniper rifle and marched heroically toward the middle door.

Crouch, scope in, all in one fluid motion!

【VG's Ori Himself used SSG 08 to headshot kill Tyloo substitute】

Time back to the end of the previous T-side round, the teammates were marveling at Jiao Yang's aiming ability as a novice while comforting him.

"Although they were messing with you, being able to kill three in a 1v4 is already pretty dio."

"Get them back next round."

"It's fine, getting knifed is normal. Who hasn't been knifed before?"

Jiao Yang didn't care about these things. Although his current headshot rate was 100%, how to maintain it was a big problem. Not killing people was a good way, but if he didn't prove his strength, he couldn't switch projects.

He needed a weapon that couldn't kill anyone unless it was a headshot.

"Hmm... rifles and SMGs can't be used; one slip and I'll kill someone."

"Among heavy weapons, the sniper rifle does too much damage, and machine guns won't work either."

"Looks like it's only the scout."

SSG-08, also known as the scout, has a price of less than two thousand but possesses the ability to headshot in one shot, and even comes with a scope. It's high quality and inexpensive, honest to all.

"We're eco this round, just rua B!" 【I'll Carry You】 was still keen on B.

Just before he could set the tactics, the teammates had already chosen their equipment.

VG's Ori Himself — No armor scout

Zeus — Full armor Zeus

Like Confucianism — Full armor Tec9

Like Daoist Temple — No armor Nova

【I'll Carry You】:?

Helpless, he had to force buy a half-armor Desert Eagle.

"Damn, buddy, how much is that fire Desert Eagle?" Seeing the cool skin, 【Like Confucianism】 and 【Like Daoist Temple】 said in unison.

"Haha, exactly five hundred, no! Let's play the game properly first."

【VG's Ori Himself used SSG 08 to headshot kill Tyloo substitute】

【VG's Ori Himself used SSG 08 to headshot kill colourd】

【VG's Ori Himself used SSG 08 to headshot kill Hua Q】

"Eh, what happened?"

【I'll Carry You】 was still thinking about how to command the attack when suddenly there were three fewer living people on the other side, and the situation became 5 vs 2.

"Oh, they seemed to want to pick up the sniper, so I took them out." Looking at the smoke just deployed in the middle, Jiao Yang put away his scope and replied.

【I'll Carry You】 behind the screen fell into thought.

Something's wrong!

Very wrong!

Is this kid playing the pig to eat the tiger?

Asking beginner questions at first, then showing off his skills?

"Regardless, they have a sniper now. Let's group up and pinch B from the middle."

"Received!" x2

"ok" from Jiao Yang

【Zeus】: 1

"That guy named Ori on the other side has some issues." 【Tyloo substitute】's voice was a bit low.

"Can't blame you, this must be a hack. How could he be that accurate?" 【colourd】 was a bit indignant.

"Already jumping to conclusions?" 【Hua Q】 was a bit hesitant.

"Damn it! A professional commentator must have the courage to make judgments."

【VG's Ori Himself used SSG 08 to headshot kill Price of Ten Big Shovel Trucks】

"Look at this guy, daring to rush first with a scout, crouching whenever he sees someone, every single one is a headshot. He's not even acting anymore."

"With VG in his name, does he really think he's a professional player?"

"A professional player smurfing in beginner matchmaking? Really funny."

【colourd】 got more and more excited as he spoke.

"I checked, it's a newly registered 5e account, and he doesn't have any skins."

"Everyone report him. If he's not hacking, I'll take his surname."

Bang! The gunshot interrupted his impassioned speech.

【I Always Love Sakurajima Mai used Desert Eagle to headshot kill VG's Ori Himself】

【I Always Love Sakurajima Mai used Desert Eagle to headshot kill Zeus】

【I Always Love Sakurajima Mai used Desert Eagle to headshot kill I'll Carry You】

【I Always Love Sakurajima Mai used Desert Eagle to headshot kill Like Confucianism】

【I Always Love Sakurajima Mai used Desert Eagle to headshot kill Like Daoist Temple】

"Ah?" 【colourd】 was stunned. "Buddy, that's uncalled for..."

In his view, his teammate Sakurajima Mai was basically a spinbot.

【Zeus】:?

【I Always Love Sakurajima Mai】: You guys started it first.

【Zeus】: Ori, you didn't hack, right?

【VG's Ori Himself】: Just have some talent.

【Zeus】: Fine, I believe you.

【Zeus】: (A long string of verbal attacks against 【I Always Love Sakurajima Mai】 omitted here)

"Report him, let's just quit."

【I'll Carry You】 felt a bit helpless. The FPS environment is just like this; smurfing and hacking are hard to avoid. In such an environment, how would newcomers be willing to keep playing, and how would young players be cultivated?

Before exiting the game, Jiao Yang looked at his performance: 7-2-0, 100% headshot rate.

Does this count as completing the task?

The small text before his eyes slowly emerged.

【System detected game end】

【Loading settlement interface for you】

【Talent for this match: b1t's Headshot Machine】

【You have completed the basic task】

【Congratulations on obtaining: Talent Point x10, Aiming Point x10 (Applied)】

【You have completed the hidden task: Pinpoint Accuracy】

【Congratulations on obtaining: b1t's Headshot Machine · Talent Solidification Lv. 1 (When aiming, tends to choose the head. Note: This talent conflicts with zont1x's steady output)】

【Talent draw settlement complete】

Jiao Yang watched the small text disappear and fell into thought.

Like b1t, he had never heard of zont1x.

Generally speaking, these should all be nobodies, but the feeling b1t's talent gave him in the game was as if the opponent's head had a magnet, and the crosshair naturally slid to the position of the opponent's head.

This was almost instantaneous.

Who on earth is b1t?!

Jiao Yang opened a search engine and video site, trying to search for information on this CS professional player.

But even in professional esports encyclopedias, he couldn't find any data on b1t or zont1x.

A parallel world?

Jiao Yang lay on the hotel bed, spreading his hands.

"Forget it, won't think about it."

Sighing, he silently recited "talent points" in his heart, and the system panel appeared.

【Jiao Yang (Ori)】

【Age: 23】

【Team: VG】

【Aiming: 15 (Capable of tracing the human body)】

【Reaction: 89 (Identified as sensitive skin)】

【Awareness: 13 (Please don't be the commander, pure disruptor)】

【Movement: 7 (My grandfather's legs are nimbler than yours)】

【Understanding: 7 (Recognizes the mini-map, but the map pool is too shallow)】

【Utility: -7 (If assists to the enemy count, the record would look great)】

【Solidified Talent: b1t's Headshot Machine Lv. 1 (0/5)】

【Please allocate talent points...】

"Ah? Am I that weak?"

Waking up from a deathbed, the noob is actually me?

Jiao Yang couldn't imagine how amazing the talent he used just now was, to be able to change a battle-five-trash into Schwarzenegger. He immediately spent 5 points on the talent.

【b1t's Headshot Machine has been upgraded to Lv. 2 (0/10): When aiming, more sensitive to the head】

【Remaining talent points: 5】

"As expected."

The point cap increased, which meant it was almost impossible to possess such terrifying talent immediately.

Even with the system, the uncertainty of the random talent experience in each match was still too high. It might be possible to dominate in a fish pond, but it would probably be far from enough to really play professionally. After all, even recognized experts like s1mple and ZwyOo wouldn't dare say they were invincible, let alone this unknown b1t.

"Regardless, in the end, I have to rely on myself."
