Chapter 115: Xu Beifang

After both sides began their passionate interactions, in the eyes of the audience, the match had indeed become much more interesting.

But for the high-pressure kid smooya, the passionate trash-talking between nice and him made every cell in his body come alive!

After losing several rounds in a row, he relied on a hero Sniper Rifle, and with the maneuvering and pulling from tabseN and others at B Site, he used the Sniper Rifle to get a Four Kill, forcefully helping the team complete a Reset.

This genius Sniper from the Great British Empire stood up firmly when the team was facing an uphill battle.

After that Four Kill, the scales of victory began to tilt continuously toward BIG.

When the final round of the first half arrived, the score was locked at 6:8.

Wanjiqi laughed in the livestream room: "Don't look at how BIG is frantically taking points; in reality, VP actually has the advantage. Even if they don't take this last round, BIG's performance on the defensive side is still failing."

"On this map, Train, the defensive side needs to reach 10 points to barely be considered passing. Even with a score of 6, VP won't have too much pressure after switching sides, but if they can take this point, their pressure in the second half will be significantly reduced."

"Now it just depends on how they plan to attack this round."

……

The economic boost from the losing streak plus planting the bomb in the previous round meant neo didn't need to worry about the team's economy for this point, but how to attack still required some consideration.

"The opponent's smooya likes to stand in Green Corridor to snipe at the start; I think we can target him," byali explained his thoughts.

He had died at the hands of smooya for several consecutive rounds; although this genius Sniper's strength was slightly inferior to his trash-talking, he could still be considered the real deal.

"How about one of you acts as a boost for me? I'll take a look at the end of Six Tracks from inside Terrorist Hall at the start?" pasha suggested.

After entering Train, the state of the rest of VP improved significantly, and they didn't find it too difficult to compete against BIG.

Both sides focused more on the confrontation between nice and smooya.

It was a matter of whether nice's frontal breakthrough was stronger, or if smooya's Sniper Rifle picking off players was more formidable.

Their performances could greatly influence the outcome of the match.

"My spawn is the worst, I'll come boost you first to find an opportunity," Xu Beifang said.

With a bad spawn, even if he wanted to play an unconventional style early on, there was no chance, so it was better to play a standard routine with pasha.

"Then let's do a 1-2-2, byali, you play Green Corridor alone, be careful," neo also clarified the early Default during the team discussion.

The countdown ended, and Xu Beifang followed in pasha's footsteps, arriving directly at T Spawn.

pasha scoped in with his Sniper Rifle, looking directly toward the Sniper Position at Outside.

He held the angle for a few seconds but didn't see anyone.

Soon, a Smoke Grenade was dropped at the entrance of Terrorist Hall.

The order of the opponent's Default utility had already been figured out by them.

The two quickly performed a Double Peek, and pasha scoped in to look at the end of Six Tracks, which was the Green Corridor direction.

But after holding for more than 10 seconds, he didn't see anyone.

The two were forced to break off the Double Peek.

neo was engaged in a firefight with the enemies inside Red Stairs; after both sides gained information, they traded fire through the upper and lower levels.

After finishing a spray, neo stopped: "michu, you stay at Red Stairs... forget it, let's go down Red Stairs together in a moment. nice, you go support byali at Green Corridor, pasha, you stay in Terrorist Hall alone and watch out for the opponent's anti-rush."

"Once everyone is in position, we will push in synchronously from three points."

This was an offensive tactic from NaVi on Train, only they were using a simplified version without much utility being thrown.

What followed was mostly localized firefights at 3 points; whether they could link up their crosshairs mainly depended on the frontal firefight situation at each position.

Hearing the commander's tactical judgment, Xu Beifang switched to his knife and rushed toward the Green Corridor direction.

"The time has reached 1 minute, VP is starting to reorganize their positioning; it looks like this wave is going to be an execute on Outside."

"But BIG is currently playing a localized 4A defense, because smooya is pushing out from Green Corridor with his Sniper Rifle! He is being very bold!!"

"byali didn't expect it at all and was directly sniped by smooya, who got the Entry Kill!!"

After smooya pushed up and got the kill, he didn't sprint backward but prepared for a Blind Shot, intending to take out any Terrorist who might come for a Trade Kill.

But after waiting for a moment, he didn't see anyone coming to trade, nor were there any footsteps, so he walked backward.

"There shouldn't be anyone at Green Corridor anymore, you guys watch the front," smooya fed back the information he had gathered.

Upon hearing this, tabseN glanced at the minimap—godb was defending B Site alone, and he was very worried that B Site would be taken out by a speed rush.

"nex, come with me to B, I feel like the opponents might hit B, let's do a 3B gamble."

After getting the Entry Kill, BIG quickly adjusted their positioning.

smooya and tizian were guarding A Site.

smooya held T Spawn with his Sniper Rifle, while tizian was at the Electric Box listening for movement in Red Stairs, ready to peek out and pre-fire at any moment.

The time above had already reached 42 seconds; they knew that VP was about to start a speed rush!

……

"Don't rush!! Give me 10 seconds, I feel like I've caught an opportunity!!" After byali was taken out, Xu Beifang, being at a distance, didn't dare to make footsteps to trade immediately, but instead held Green Corridor in place, waiting for the opponent to repeek.

Facts proved that although smooya was aggressive, he was not the King of Repeeking.

Xu Beifang soon heard the sound of smooya's footsteps walking backward.

The opponent was retreating with heavy footsteps and didn't even throw follow-up utility; Xu Beifang knew this might be a very important Reset point for this round!

He walked silently all the way forward, arrived near the T-junction, and used a half-body peek to jiggle.

Confirming that no one was holding the bottom line directly, Xu Beifang knew the opportunity had arrived.

"pasha, can you fire two shots at T Spawn? Or throw some utility, help me bait them!"

"Even Red Stairs can move together, pretending to be an execute."

Xu Beifang's request was quickly met with feedback.

pasha at T Spawn threw two Flashbangs into the Bomb Site in succession, neo on Red Stairs directly threw a fire outside Red Stairs, and then coordinated with michu to clear the inside of Red Stairs.

Xu Beifang also snuck out from Green Corridor and saw the CT crouching in front of him.

"nice has truly caught an incredible timing this time! But he isn't rushing; he's still looking for the second person on A Site!"

"smooya suddenly turned around, only to be killed point-blank! And Xu Beifang also saw the second person at A Site, switched to the Sniper Rifle, and with a single Flick Shot from long range, he also took down tizian!"

"nice used smooya's Sniper Rifle to take down his own teammate; is this also a form of cuckolding?"

Two kills were instantly secured at A Site, and thunderous shouts erupted within the VP voice chat. With 20 seconds remaining, Xu Beifang picked up the Smoke Grenade that smooya had been reluctant to use at Green Corridor and tossed it casually toward CT Mid.

"Based on their positioning just now, there shouldn't be anyone at A Bomb Site," Xu Beifang explained his next move. "I'm holding CT Spawn with the Sniper Rifle, you guys watch CT Mid!"

Xu Beifang quickly carried the Sniper Rifle into the backline. michu, who had emerged from Red Stairs, also threw a fire at CT Mid, then protected neo behind the Electric Box while the bomb was planted.

"nice has made another bold breakthrough. Although this style of breaking the game occasionally costs him his life, this time he succeeded!"

"At this stage, VP has become increasingly proficient at making these kinds of baits and pulls. Just now, pasha at T Spawn made it look like they were going to speed up; smooya had actually turned his head and even unscoped."

"But the T Spawn side forced him to turn back, which gave nice room to operate!"

After summarizing, Wanjiqi looked back at the screen: "nice has come to the backline to hold an angle with the Sniper Rifle, easily taking one out. There is still one 'Fuhrer' in the backline, what about this one? He lands a shot, but is immediately counter-killed by the 'Fuhrer'."

"But it's no big deal. With Red Stairs covered, someone standing at the Electric Box, and even someone holding an angle at T Spawn, this Clutch for VP is very steady."

"godb is planting the bomb, the 'Fuhrer' is holding an angle looking for people, michu is taken out immediately, but neo's Trade Kill! A wave of Spray Transfer!! He killed them all!"

"BIG has no chance this round!" Wanjiqi exclaimed, "It's fortunate that nice dared to push; he single-handedly carved out a path in a 4-vs-5 Clutch."

"The score has now reached 7:8, and the pressure is all on BIG's side."

……

Entering halftime.

tizian asked with some confusion: "smooya, what happened on your end? Why were you suddenly shot?"

The exchange of fire between smooya and nice was too sudden; he turned his head immediately after seeing the kill feed.

But he didn't see anyone at first, and by the time the opponent appeared in his field of vision again, they were already carrying a 'fire poker' in their hands.

"I'd like to know that too, damn it." smooya frantically slapped his own forehead, "Why is this guy so daring to push!"

"He walked out of Green Corridor the whole way by sneaking! Isn't he afraid of someone holding an angle?"

The reason he dared not watch Green Corridor this time was, first, because he hadn't heard any follow-up information before.

Secondly, he was certain that since he had fired shots at Green Corridor, the opponent would inevitably make some noise whether they wide-peeked or threw a Flashbang.

And in reality, he did have the intention of turning to throw a smoke at Green Corridor, but his attention was just distracted by the Flashbang at T Spawn, and he wanted to get a kill with the Sniper Rifle.

He didn't expect that instead of getting a kill, he would end up throwing away a great situation.

For a moment, smooya felt an immense headache.

The group from BIG heard this answer and didn't blame smooya, because the choices made by that VP Dage were indeed not something a normal person could understand.

They could only look forward to performing better after switching sides.

After a few minutes of halftime, both sides swapped factions and arrived at the second half of Map 2.

VP arrived at the CT side.

Xu Beifang had a good spawn and an idea in his mind, so he proactively suggested: "How about I go straight to High Slope to get some information, and you guys gamble on a 4A setup at the start?"

"Isn't that too risky?" neo frowned and said. In a Pistol Round, he still preferred a slightly more conservative playstyle.

pasha added: "I think it's feasible. If you really feel it's dangerous, then just gamble two at CT Mid or just gamble two at Red Stairs."

"Alright then," neo made the decision. "Two go through Green Corridor at the start, and you all buy Half Armor. I'll buy a Smoke Grenade and a Defuse Kit alone. I'll stay near CT Mid later, and as soon as there's information on B Site, I'll proactively Retake."

Xu Beifang nodded, bought Half Armor at the shop, and then ran toward High Slope without stopping.

He arrived at High Slope, got into position, and just as he was about to peek to take a look at T Second Floor, he heard a large number of footsteps coming from ahead.

Thanks to his training with the Danes, he was very sensitive to all kinds of sounds.

"Retake, retake! They're rushing B directly!!" Xu Beifang pressed the sneak key, waited for a timing, and then fired several shots at the bomb carrier moving toward the Bomb Site.

"Pop!"

【nice used USP to get a Headshot kill on tabsen】

"nice has taken all the information on the opponent at the start!! And he's very insidious; he didn't start Firing immediately, but took out the bomb carrier first, instantly throwing the opponent's rhythm off!"

"But godb is sneaking up on him here, does he know this information!!"

After Xu Beifang took out the bomb carrier, he immediately turned to hide inside High Slope. As long as he didn't die in this wave, the people inside B Bomb Site would be caught in a pincer attack by them.

But the moment he turned around, he saw a dark shadow in front of him, his whole body shuddered in fright, and his muzzle subconsciously flicked upward.

"Pop!"

【nice used USP Pistol to get a Headshot kill on godb】

"Nice shot, brothers!!!" byali, who was on the way to reinforce, saw the kill feed constantly scrolling in the top right corner and shouted excitedly to cheer them on.

Xu Beifang also noticed the kill feed scrolling crazily in the top right corner at this moment. He had originally thought they would have to fight a pincer attack, but discovered that neo, who was Retaking, had landed two consecutive Headshots, instantly killing all the Terrorists who had rushed into the middle of Three Paths!

In an instant, the number of players on both sides reached 5-vs-1!

Xu Beifang at High Slope proactively searched for angles and soon saw a Terrorist in the middle of Second Middle wide-peek out to challenge him.

He fired a few shots, the USP magazine ran dry, and he immediately recited in his heart, "I am s1mple, I am s1mple."

Then he exposed his entire back to tizian.

tizian fired a burst of bullets, but without hitting the head, he failed to kill Xu Beifang.

By the time he reloaded, it was Xu Beifang's turn; he pulled out his USP and fired wildly at tizian.

But as a bullet flew in from the backline, michu intercepted the kill.

"Brothers, I made a great contribution this time!" michu raised his right fist high, as if he were the key man for this point.

The 'meritorious boy' appeared again, and the VP team was filled with friendly laughter.

byali also said: "You made a great contribution by killing one, so what about me who shouted twice? I count as having activated a morale-boosting skill, it's not too much to count me for an assist, right?"

The group laughed again; winning the Pistol Round with a 0-for-5 made them feel much more relaxed.

neo bumped fists with the teammates beside him: "Alright, now it's our turn to chase the score. Whatever smooya mocked us with before, I'm going to make him get slapped in the face with it! Still using us to practice his aim? Get counter-killed by a bot!"

Winning the Pistol Round, VP tied the score.

In the second round of the second half, Big chose to Force Buy, but after a wave of grenades at B Site, four were taken down by michu and neo; although the bomb was planted, the three-man Retake squad easily won this Clutch.

Following that, they took the Terrorists' eco round without the slightest pressure.

Before the first Full Buy Round of the second half arrived, the score on the big screen reached 10:8.

On this map, they had achieved a lead in the score for the First Time!

There might be a top-tier statistics chapter around midnight; I'll compile the stats after I finish writing my old book, I'm off to chase my perfect attendance bonus.
