Chapter 305: Finally Home

In this instance, he reached LV3. Xu Beifang continued to try, but still didn't feel much difficulty.

He wasn't in a hurry, just kept brushing down like this. He also wanted to see where his limit was.

Unknowingly, he had already won quite a few 1VNs and reached the LV8 level.

The picture turned. This time he came to the A bomb site of Inferno. When the countdown started, he saw the main perspective just put down the bomb, and there was some information about the previous engagement, letting him know that this was a 1V2 clutch.

However, looking at his own state, Xu Beifang felt that this clutch was also not easy to handle.

Perhaps because the difficulty increased, in this round Xu Beifang only had 21 health points, which meant he had to not miss a shot and win this 1V2 clutch.

Numerical disadvantage, health disadvantage, wanting to win this clutch smoothly, how could it be so easy?

Just then, he heard a sound at the T-junction in the middle.

Thanks to the practice in 'Instance-Dissecting the Danes', his sound-based positioning ability was very strong. Even if it was just a momentary sound, Xu Beifang was very sure.

Returning from Banana to the middle, it was impossible to go through the Connector and take a big detour. The possibility of going through A1 was the greatest.

Now one is determined at A1, and the other might also be at A1, but it is more likely to be in the Connector area.

Xu Beifang looked at his configuration:

Main weapon: M4A1

Secondary weapon: Desert Eagle

Utility: None

After a wave of brainstorming in his mind, Xu Beifang also had an idea for this clutch.

He carried the M4 to the bomb site's second box, and then took the initiative to look for the Connector direction. The first wave of pulling to the right didn't see the opponent's figure, but he still heard the opponent's footsteps.

Unable to catch up, although Xu Beifang didn't see the enemy, he still pulled the trigger.

The silenced sound of the M4A1 rang out on the map.

Xu Beifang immediately switched to the Desert Eagle and returned to the vicinity of the second box to directly frame A1.

A 'fly head' appeared in the field of vision. Xu Beifang's Desert Eagle crosshair was already framed. The gunshot just now was for the guy at A1 to hear.

So the placement of the crosshair was also clamped at the position where the opponent pulled out.

At this moment, the crosshair didn't need secondary adjustment.

"Bang!"

【Nice used Desert Eagle to headshot kill Zues】

The bullet pierced the fly head's brain, and Xu Beifang also turned this clutch into a 1V1.

After getting the kill, Xu Beifang immediately jumped onto the Dead Point box silently, with the crosshair framing the Connector direction.

A big sniper slowly pushed out from the Connector. Xu Beifang sprayed and fired.

—Bang!!

The cold bullet ruthlessly pierced Xu Beifang's skull, letting him fall into the dim Dead Point.

The C4 was still ticking, but Xu Beifang already understood that he had lost this clutch.

"The S1mple simulated is too fast."

Xu Beifang's consciousness was still in the simulated space. I don't know if it was because of the simulated space, but being killed in this wave made him feel a great impact.

It was like the feeling of being instantly killed by Xantares's big pull in FPL, and even doubled.

Just losing a simulated clutch made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

He also noticed why the system prompted to adjust his mentality when introducing it.

Xu Beifang shook his head, and his brain started to review.

In this round, his early operation was no problem at all, basically guessing the positions of both of them.

It's just that he didn't expect this simulated S1mple to have already opened the scope and touched over from the back of the Connector. He didn't know at all that S1mple was a sniper rifle, so there was a problem with his selection.

If he knew S1mple was a sniper rifle, he might have chosen the headshot position and used the method of tricking the shot to play.

Still not rigorous... Xu Beifang slowly figured out his problems in his mind.

A normal player, after entering the clutch, generally relies on past habitual playstyles.

But a truly powerful clutch player will calculate all kinds of information and finally come to an advantageous playstyle.

He considered the opponent's standing position and his own health in the first wave, and chose to use the Desert Eagle to hit first. This decision was no problem.

But the 1V1 later was negligent.

Although losing a 1V2 clutch is not a big mistake, when reviewing the clutch, you have to find the most reasonable solution, so that you can play better next time.

However, suddenly simulating a professional-level opponent was something he didn't expect.

From LV1, the kill information in the upper right corner also had IDs.

But most of them were IDs like 【Living is for Sakurajima Mai】, 【Flip Garden Breaker Grandpa Niu】, 【Jiahui pouring water...】, 【Independent Regiment Li Yunlong】. Xu Beifang had played no less than 50 of them in the 5E low-score segment before, so he didn't care at all.

He could feel that the quality of the simulated match had been getting stronger, and he didn't expect it to be at the professional level by LV7.

Now he finally understood the gold content of this reward.

Simulating professional players as his sparring partners, helping him train local processing and local defense ability.

This is equivalent to pulling a bunch of powerful professional players to help him conduct local specialized training, which can greatly reduce the match time Xu Beifang needs to improve.

Thinking about this, Xu Beifang felt excited.

He put his mind into the simulated match in front of him again, preparing to continue the match.

But after opening it again, he found that his level in the upper left corner became LV1 again.

"Good guy, this is hell-difficulty climbing, right."

After finally climbing to the eighth level, this one clutch didn't win, and he instantly returned to the novice circle.

This feeling is like playing 'Only Up', finally climbing to a very high level, not grabbing firmly, and directly returning to the starting point.

The sense of loss is huge.

However, when he looked back, he found that the map was still on Inferno. This time it was a 1V3 clutch.

Xu Beifang was defending at Banana.

The difficulty of LV1 should be the level of ordinary C to B, still in an introductory stage. He basically crushed these simulated C+ guys in all aspects and took them down very easily.

After taking these down, Xu Beifang's heart was still acceptable.

Starting from LV1 again, it's not the same content, he can't memorize the board, the randomness is very strong, which has challenges.

Before, Xu Beifang tried to play the small game Faker played to practice reaction. The initial effect was quite good, and he could quickly mobilize his hands and eyes.

But later he found that the content of that game was fixed, and the various mechanisms were the same after playing to the back, so it had no effect on him.

Now the local defense or clutch simulated are all random and unknown, which instead aroused Xu Beifang's desire to win.

This is like CSGO; you never know what will happen in your next round.

Xu Beifang rubbed his hands, his fighting spirit had been re-awakened!

Fight! Cool!!

In the following time, Xu Beifang began to climb constantly in this clutch.

In this process, he understood the system's prompt again.

This instance is really tormenting!

He really wanted to continue climbing up, but how easy is it to win 1VN?

The first time Xu Beifang climbed to LV8 and lost.

The second time he climbed to LV10, facing a 1V3 simulated by C9 and lost.

In the anxious situation of the third time, he even started over at LV3.

This led to him playing more and more anxiously, but the more anxious he was in the clutch, the more irrational he was.

In the end, Xu Beifang played until he was 'red-hot', and even couldn't reach the level of LV8 several times.

This situation didn't end until Zywoo woke him up and reminded him that the airport had arrived.

Xu Beifang opened his eyes, feeling his head still a bit numb.

"This is a bit like the feeling of getting 'Instance-Unlimited Deathmatch' for the first time. The mental pressure is too great, and I can't bear it."

He shook his head, and then remembered that they were preparing to get on the plane.

"It seems that training must be restrained in the future, and the frequency must be controlled."

This feeling is not good, so after checking in, Xu Beifang and his teammates passed through the terminal and boarded the return plane.

"A month's time passed really fast." Zywoo looked at the scenery outside the window and muttered to himself.

Xu Beifang echoed: "For your own goal, when you are fully invested, you won't pay attention to time, so it passed very fast."

JackZ listened to their conversation and fell into deep thought beside him: "I'm really worried that tomorrow when I open my eyes, our vacation will be over."

"Shut up!!!" Xu Beifang shouted. "You are simply a devil!"

Facing busy work, time seems to stop, and once in the vacation, it is like opening double speed time, making people feel melancholy for no reason.

Looking at the teammates' bickering, Zywoo laughed very happily beside him. The plane hadn't taken off yet. He waited for the flight attendant to walk past before asking:

"Then Beifang, when are you returning to China?"

"The day after the club finishes shooting the advertisement, I booked the flight for the next morning." Xu Beifang answered Zywoo.

After shooting that advertisement, the team was all on vacation, and he had no desire to stay in the club. Going home early is the right solution.

Speaking of which, more than a month has passed, eating Sydney-flavored things every day, he misses the chili-fried meat at home.

"Then Beifang, remember to bring me some specialties when you come back from vacation." Zywoo winked at him. On the professional stage, he is a top-tier sniper who gives people huge oppression, but in life, he is a little gluttonous fat man.

Xu Beifang nodded: "Okay, these are all small things."

"Then I want it too!"

"+1!"

"Get me a copy too!"

"I don't want to eat that spicy."

"I'm not picky, I eat whatever there is."

Listening to the teammates' chatter, Xu Beifang's eyebrows were almost written with a 'well' character.

"You bunch of old sixes, why didn't I see you bring me specialties?"

Hearing Xu Beifang's questioning voice, they were not convinced.

JackZ said: "Okay, when I come back, I'll bring you blue cheese."

apEX said: "I'll take you to eat goat cheese."

Xu Beifang was angry: "Can't there be something else? Why is it all cheese!"

Some people like to eat cheese, and he belongs to the kind that hates it.

This is like coriander in China. Those who like to eat it show it off, and those who don't like to eat it feel uncomfortable even if it is stained with a little bit on the chopsticks.

Amidst the laughter of the crowd, the plane took off, and the destination was the direction when they came.

"Finally arrived!"

When the plane arrived at Shanghai Airport, looking at the familiar architectural style around, he took a deep breath, and his heart, which was a bit restless because of the long-distance plane, calmed down inexplicably.

Getting on the shuttle bus, entering the airport hall to take the luggage, he started to follow the crowd and walk out.

"Beifang, here!!"

Walking in the passage, he soon saw his eldest brother waving at him, standing beside a man in a suit, and quite a few fans holding light boards.

"Who is this?" Xu Beifang asked his brother.

Xu Nanfang responded: "I remember you didn't seem to have signed a long-term contract with Bilibili before."

Hearing this, Xu Beifang roughly understood.

"Yeah, I've always been broadcasting casually."

"They looked for me before, but you also know that my time is unstable. Sometimes I can broadcast for a day, sometimes I don't open the broadcast for a few days, so I didn't think about signing a contract."

Xu Beifang's work focus has always been on the professional path. Initially, he didn't think about broadcasting, purely because it was convenient to send videos on Bilibili, good to record his own practice process. Later, it was also requested by water friends, so he started broadcasting on Bilibili and got used to it.

Hearing this, the man in the suit beside him also brightened up.

Xu Nanfang said: "This staff member from Huya wants to talk to you about some cooperation, but I can't make your decision. I thought about telling you after going back, but he knew you were coming back and followed you specially."

The staff member from Huya smiled at Xu Beifang: "Mainly because some things are not clear on the internet. It would be better for us to talk face to face."

"But I don't need to be in a hurry here. Why don't you chat with your fans for a few words first?"

Xu Beifang complimented him with a smile, and then turned his gaze to the group of young people behind whose clear eyes revealed a trace of stupidity.

"Where did so many college students come from?"

Xu Nanfang explained helplessly: "When we were on the phone before, we were heard by your fans in the internet cafe. They discussed coming over together, which can be considered chasing stars... You know, college students in nearby universities are all quite free."

Hearing this answer, Xu Beifang smiled knowingly.

If he were still a college student, knowing there was such an opportunity to pick someone up at the airport, he might have crowded forward too.

Although Xu Beifang was not far away before, seeing Xu Beifang chatting with his brother for the time being, everyone, even if they were excited, didn't step forward at will.

Instead, they stood in place and waited.

Until they saw Xu Beifang coming over, they excitedly surrounded Xu Beifang.

"Brother Beizi, I am your ten-year fan. You played too well in this IEM Sydney, too much face for the riflemen."

"Actually, I have always considered myself an all-around player?"

"It is indeed all-around, but the sniper rifle is used relatively little."

"I didn't sleep all night after watching the final, and ran to open a Mirage directly, preparing to incarnate as Nice himself of the Vitality team..."

"And then?"

"One shot, no sound."

The college students around were very excited, talking about their thoughts on that IEM Sydney match.

The man in the suit stood on the side, watching Xu Beifang being so loved by fans, and felt that this trip was worth it.

At the beginning of this year, Qiezi, as a big streamer, started to become popular with his authentic style, directly bringing the popularity of CSGO in China to a very high level.

Coupled with the good results achieved by Xu Beifang and Tyloo in this project, the popularity of CSGO is getting higher and higher now.

The largest live streaming platforms in China have all moved upon hearing the news, wanting to catch this pouring wealth.

With the decline of Huomao, various CSGO anchor contracts have begun to change.

But the move by Haixian Live was the fastest. First of all, the current number one CSGO streamer in China, Qiezi, was directly signed by them at a high price.

Several anchors brought to fire by Qiezi have also signed on Douyu one after another.

Seeing that this wave of CSGO popularity is about to be eaten up by Douyu, they are anxious.

It was not easy to keep 2/3 of CSBOY, but compared to Qiezi's popularity on the live streaming platform, they are slightly not enough to look at.

But at this time, several of their senior executives had a flash of inspiration.

If Qiezi is the number one anchor of CNCSGO, then Xu Beifang is the number one person in CNCSGO today.

Xu Beifang not only has excellent results, but his popularity has always been very high.

Every large-scale tournament, the discussion about him has never stopped.

Now seeing the enthusiasm of the water friends, the man in the suit feels that they are going to have a wave of overtaking on the bend.

Xu Beifang is chatting with the audience. Looking at their excited expressions, he also took out the trophy and MVP medal he just got from the suitcase to show the college students.

Soon he heard a piece of "Wow".

"Alright, alright! Don't move it around; if it breaks, there won't be a second one!" Xu Nanfang glared at his younger brother. He felt that such an important item, if taken out like this and accidentally bumped, would break his heart.

A fan asked in confusion: "Why did you bring Vitality back? Isn't this thing usually kept in the club?"

Xu Beifang explained: "Except for individual cases, most tournament trophies have quite a few copies prepared. Usually, the championship club will take one, and other championship players, if they want, can also spend a little money to get a replica."

Compared to the honor of the championship, Xu Beifang didn't care about that little bit of money.

"In a while, Mom will probably say there's no room left at home," Xu Beifang said to his brother.

Xu Nanfang held the trophy and secretly lifted it up, as if he could feel the clamor of his brother on the stage. Sensing his brother was about to turn his head, he quickly put it down, maintaining his dignity as an older brother: "If there's no room, put it in our internet cafe. I'll build you a whole honor wall in the back; feel free to fill it up!"

"That sounds interesting!" Xu Beifang raised his eyebrows. He felt that if his internet cafe were filled with trophies, it might really become a tourist spot for Chinese CSGO players to check in later.

Xu Beifang took photos with the fans who came to pick him up and celebrate, then got into his older brother's old Ford and started heading home.

Although he had only been away from home for a little over a month, Xu Beifang felt like it had been a long time—perhaps his palate had been spoiled since he was a child.

The food in other countries can indeed give people a sense of surprise when first tasted.

But in the end, the food at home still tastes better.

"Nanfang, is this your younger brother who was abroad? I heard he makes money playing games abroad. Young people nowadays are really incredible."

Just as they walked into the alley, an auntie at the small shop shouted toward their side.

"Yeah, my brother just finished the match and is coming home to rest for a while." Xu Nanfang greeted the auntie and led his brother into the alley.

Now in Suzhou, although their family bought a house, Xu Beifang would also live there when he was on vacation.

But most of the time, they would still eat in the small courtyard at the sister-in-law's place; everyone likes it to be lively.

Compared to the high-rise buildings in Jiangxi, the various styles here in Suzhou are relatively small and exquisite.

It's just that the small places are a bit unfriendly to big guys like Xu Beifang.

After circling around the alley for a few times, they finally reached their destination.

"Beifang is back?"

"Yeah, I'm back."

"Then just play on your phone for a while; we'll be eating soon."

Xu Beifang looked at the environment around him. His dad was sitting not far away, scrolling through his phone, and he could hear the shout of "Fish on!" from time to time—he was probably watching fishing videos.

His mom was in the kitchen preparing lunch for the whole family.

The aroma drifting out entered Xu Beifang's nose, making him unable to help but sneeze.

His sister-in-law, Wang Xiaoya, showed a helpless smile on her face: "Sure enough, the youngest is the most loved. Knowing you were coming back, Mom was shouting yesterday, 'My Beifang must have starved thin abroad; I have to cook something good for him to eat.' We who are at home only have the share of envy."

Xu Beifang leaned over and said: "I can only eat for three days at most. After these three days, my family status might be worse than the dog's."

Wang Xiaoya smiled until her eyes squinted: "You can't say that; your family status is at least higher than your brother's."

"Talking bad about me behind my back again!"

Xu Nanfang instantly turned his head to look at his wife.

Xu Beifang didn't want to watch them flirt, so he walked to his suitcase and took out a box of potato chips from inside.

He walked to his mom's side and handed the chip box to her.

"Go play by yourself. Eating chips now, you won't be able to eat when it's time for dinner." His mom started her magic attack.

But today, Xu Beifang had activated his barrier in advance and said: "Mom, you open it."

Xu Ma looked at Xu Beifang suspiciously, took the chip box, and opened it.

She expected to see yellow chips, but her eyes lit up instead.

A rose?

"My son is sensible, knowing to send me flowers." Xu Ma wanted to pull out the rose but felt the texture was a bit off. "Hmm?!"

Hearing the sound from this side, the couple Xu Nanfang and Wang Xiaoya also looked over.

Then they watched Xu Ma pull out a rose, and hanging from it with a silk thread was a jade bracelet.

"Whoa!!!" The two of them instantly started to boo.

"Beifang is very romantic!" Wang Xiaoya exclaimed, then kicked Nanfang on the side: "I've never seen you give me any gifts."

Nanfang looked innocent; who did he offend?

"Wasting money!" Xu Ma blamed him and patted Xu Beifang with her hand, but the happiness at the corner of her mouth couldn't be hidden.

"How much did you buy it for?"

"Don't worry about it; just tell me, does it look good?"

"It looks good."

That bracelet was actually quite expensive; Xu Beifang had spent a long time picking it out in his spare time.

He knew that given his parents' personalities, except for some major events, they definitely wouldn't be willing to buy it.

But his parents had raised him with great hardship. Now that he had started working and earning money, besides realizing his own value, making his family live better was also one of his goals.

Xu Ba was scrolling through videos not far away without a word, but the occasional glance made Xu Beifang want to laugh.

This little old man was actually jealous of his own wife.

Xu Beifang continued to rummage through his suitcase and soon took out a pile of things to assemble: "Dad, this is a fishing rod I bought for you from abroad. When you're free, you can find a place to fish for a while."

Since Xu Nanfang officially came ashore, Xu Ba and Xu Ma also came ashore.

Now Xu Ma basically takes care of some housework at home, while Xu Ba drives a small tricycle to help his sister-in-law's flower shop deliver flowers and the like. It's relatively leisurely, but Xu Ba still can't sit still.

Receiving the gift, Xu Ba had that same face, saying he was wasting money, but he was happy inside.

The parents' generation is always like this; their feelings are relatively subtle.

The couple behind them had eyes almost 8 meters long, so Xu Beifang hurriedly took out the cosmetics he brought for his sister-in-law.

Watching his family members receive gifts one by one, Xu Nanfang was very expectant in the back, and then he watched Xu Beifang close the suitcase.

He immediately stepped forward and asked: "What's the situation? Where's my gift?"

"It's gone! You're already married; if you want a gift, go ask your wife." Perhaps due to professional habit, Xu Beifang even wanted to shake his own brother.

Seeing Nanfang's confused expression, he still took out the PS4 he had prepared from the suitcase.

"I'm afraid you'll be bored, so play with it when you're free at the internet cafe."

After sending out a pile of gifts, in the happy atmosphere, everyone sat down to eat.

Seeing the fiery red dining table, Xu Beifang already felt his saliva secreting.

He stretched out his chopsticks, directly picked up a piece of 'spoon meat', and couldn't wait to put it into his mouth.

The elasticity of the fat, the chewiness of the lean meat, plus the taste of chili powder, exploded in his mouth. Xu Beifang hurriedly shoveled a mouthful of rice.

"Comfortable! I've been craving this for a long time abroad."

"If it really doesn't work, find a Chinese restaurant to eat abroad; don't wrong yourself." Xu Ma still felt sorry for her son. She felt that her youngest son must have had a hard time running around abroad.

"It's mainly because the food outside isn't as delicious as what Mom makes." Xu Beifang continued to pick up two more chopsticks.

These words made Xu Ma very happy: "Then whatever you want to eat these days, I'll make it for you."

Xu Nanfang picked up a piece of chili-fried meat on the side and brought up the suit-wearing man from Huya today: "Beifang, what do you think?"

"They came to me probably to talk about the streaming contract. Later, I'll ask someone to help me look at the contract. There's no big problem; it's indeed okay to sign it," Xu Beifang replied.

"Then is your club okay with it?"

Xu Beifang shook his head: "Our club boss is very stingy. At first, he didn't sign a streaming contract with us at all, just to save some money. So you see me abroad, basically opening this stream today and that stream tomorrow, focusing on doing whatever I want."

"But you finally came home to rest; if this streaming contract makes you stream every day, that wouldn't be good." Xu Nanfang was still a bit worried.

Xu Beifang shook his head: "It's fine. We can talk about the streaming time later. But I don't think there's any big problem. Anyway, even without this, I guess I would still stream to play some CSGO."

He is the type of person who can't stay idle.

After lying at home for a few days and entering a state of having nothing to do, it's very likely he would go to stream and chat with netizens to relieve boredom.

Now that Huya has just come to the door, if there's no problem, he might as well earn some streaming money.

Xu Beifang's prediction of his own state was also very clear.

After staying at home for a few days, he was bored to death.

The manager from Huya also came to the door again, but this time he brought a two-year streaming contract.

The contract is for two years; the offer for the first year's streaming contract is 20 million, and the second year is 26 million.

Adding it up, this is a super contract of 46 million for two years.

Even though Xu Beifang had seen a lot of the world, he was stunned by Huya's big move.

You have to know that from the time he started playing professionally until now, all his income—bonuses + salary + sticker revenue—totaled less than 10 million.

But this domestic streaming contract threw half a small goal at him as soon as it started.

He finally understood why many players in the neighboring LPL would quickly choose to run off to be streamers after becoming famous, because this money is too much.

Compared to earning a salary from the club and bonuses from matches, this income is too high, which would also make too many people lose themselves.

Xu Beifang specifically invited professionals to come over to ensure the contract was fine and there were no traps.

He only needed to stream for 60 hours a month to complete the basic goals of the contract.

As for not completing it, that would just be a fine on his salary, which, under the contract's exaggerated income, didn't count for much.

After finalizing some details, Xu Beifang signed his name, and both sides shook hands happily.

After confirming the signing, Huya also carried out a huge amount of advertising and publicity in China.

Xu Beifang had won two major championships in the last two months, and one was won in China. Now the popularity of CNCSGO is very high.

Tieba, max forums, and various headline pushes all appeared with the news of Xu Beifang signing with Huya.

【Huya TV officially signs with the number one person in CNCSGO!】

【May 15th, lock in Huya TV to see the madness of the world's number one entry fragger!】

【If you want to see the top-tier breakthroughs of the world's number one entry fragger, come to Huya TV!】

This news instantly triggered a hot search.

【Holy crap, Little Xu signed with Huya??】

【This wave is indeed making a fortune. Before, when he streamed on Bilibili, I didn't see Uncle doing anything.】

【Little Xu has strong strength and good streaming effects. This wave of Huya's thinking is clear.】

【Looks like it's going to overtake on a curve. Can't help but download Huya.】

Domestic CSGO fans, seeing this news, couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

Although Xu Beifang had streamed on Bilibili before, the streaming wasn't frequent, and many netizens didn't even know about this news.

Now seeing the overwhelming hot search pushes, many of them started looking forward to the upcoming stream on the 12th.

Ma Xixi, looking at the fans who had fallen into complete madness on the hot search, couldn't help but sigh:

"It's over. I originally thought I could sit firmly as the number one in the Huya CSGO section, but now it's done for."

"Huya has directly invited a monster back!"
