Chapter 6: The First Victory
The overall score of 2:0 made Li Mei a bit unable to watch, and she kept sulking with a dark expression, staring at the screen. At this moment, Fei Ge was humming a little tune as he walked upstairs. The worried expression he had at the beginning was completely gone, and now Fei Ge was overjoyed.
"Let's play freely!" Jian Bao, having seen the opponent's strength in the first two rounds, said completely relaxed. In their usual online matches, the rAn team only played freely without tactics when facing weaker teams, which they called just practicing shooting skills. In the previous two rounds, the Mei Ying team clearly showed an unbeatable performance. Therefore, this time, Jian Bao acted on his own, but before rAn could glare at him to say something, the match had already started.
As soon as the match began, Tu Tu, born on the left side of the mafioso base, quickly aimed their sniper, peeked around the wall, and took out A-Nan, who hadn't even jumped onto A Dog yet. Tu Tu's lips showed an indecent grin, but it froze there. After sniping A-Nan, Tu Tu continued aiming down the middle, but was instantly headshot by Dong Tai, who had flashed out from the police station.
"Yo! That shot was fast. Let's see if I can turn you into a vegetable next round!" Although Dong Tai's shot was very quick, Tu Tu still thought it was his own carelessness that allowed the opponent to take the chance. Meanwhile, Jian Bao single-handedly attacked site A but died in a 2-on-1 battle on A Avenue. Seeing this, rAn wanted to have Assassin and Long Ci fall back to the mafioso base, but Assassin was caught in a pincer attack by the two policemen defending site B. Assassin said frustratedly, "55, 70!"
"I also hit those two at A with 65 and 34 health, both crippled!" added Jian Bao. By this time, rAn and Long Ci had already retreated to the mafioso backyard. Only 35 seconds had passed, and rAn thought it was still early, so they decided to camp points in the mafioso base, hoping to ambush the opponents. Although all four enemies were crippled and rAn and Long Ci were at full health, it was still very risky for just two people to face four.
The two hid on either side of the B exit of the mafioso base. rAn crouched on the left side, aiming at the highest point of the base slope, while Long Ci stood on the right side, aiming at the door. Both stared intently at the screen, afraid of even the slightest mistake.Just as they were watching their card positions tensely, they suddenly heard the heavy footsteps of a group of police outside Warehouse B. rAn immediately withdrew the gun, gesturing with it toward Warehouse B in Longci's direction. The two of them simultaneously dashed out from outside the bridge gates, firing parallel bursts. At that moment, Xiaomi had just run out of the B warehouse door, scouting the situation on both sides of the bridge as he walked. When he aimed the M4's sight at the slope near the bandits' location, Longci and rAn suddenly appeared and shot him dead.
"Damn, this trick again!?" Xiaomi, who had already been ambushed at this spot in the previous round, thought there wouldn't be an ambush here again. For experts, it was impossible to ambush in the same place consecutively; this was considered a big mistake. But rAn deliberately played psychological games, going against typical reasoning, and unlucky Xiaomi fell in the same spot twice.
"Two enemies ambush in the bandits' backyard, heading to B!" Frustrated, Xiaomi got up and went to the restroom, wanting to wash his face to clear his mind.
Aotian suddenly stopped his steps toward point B. "Wait, don't go to B yet!" Aotian remembered the previous trick where Tutu and Longci feigned an attack at point A and immediately stopped 1st and Dongtai from defending B.
"Could the opponent also fake an attack at B like last round and circle around the bandits to hit A?" Aotian asked his teammates this question in the match room. Both Dongtai and Anan, having experienced the opponent's sneaky tactics before, agreed with Aotian's suspicion.
"I'll snipe at B from A Dog; you two keep watching the side path and A platform!" Dongtai immediately turned and set up his sniper, aiming from A Dog toward the B gate.
As the countdown slowly reached 30 seconds, Dongtai couldn't hold back. His eyes didn't even dare to blink, staring intensely at point B, but not a single figure appeared near the B gate. He stepped out of A Dog, scoped through the middle gate toward the bandits' area, and just caught sight of two legs jumping from a bandit window toward corner A. Dongtai smiled slightly, "So they're going for A. Looks like their coordination isn't that impressive after all!"
