CS: Demon King C, you said I was a genius?

Chapter 124 Is this considered stealing a bag?

In the NIP player seat.

Su Zhe and everyone bumped fists to encourage each other.

"Everyone played well in the first half!" es3tag said quite easily, completely free of any pre-match nervousness.

They originally treated this game as a tough battle, just like their previous matches against NAVI and Faze.

But no one expected that although the IDs of these five C9 players looked impressive, the effect of putting them together was actually average.

Their strength is not weak, otherwise they would not have entered the 2-0 group, but compared with those real first-line teams, they are a little bit lacking.

A truly strong team will make its own response for the next round based on the opponent's offensive means in real time, which makes it difficult to score continuously against them.

C9's defensive positioning did not change much throughout the first half, and even if it did, es3tag would easily find the defensive flaws.

It feels more like a temporary team formation of the top five players in the ladder, all relying on their personal abilities.

Either he had a good touch and caught a few more people to score a point, or he was directly dispersed by NIP in one wave.

"How was my performance today!" Rez said with a smile, "My kill count in the first half was almost higher than Arrow's!"

k0nfig on the side jokingly said, "Come on, you know how your stats came about. If you were the first defender, KD would have been completely outmatched by now."

Rez didn't care about the teasing: "So what! As long as I can get the kill, that's all! Besides, it's not like I haven't been a piss-forward before."

k0nfig was a little confused: "When have you ever been a slasher?"

REZ: "Before, you often gave away points when you broke through. Isn't my second position a breakthrough player?"

k0nfig:?
REZ couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw k0nfig's helpless and frustrated look.

He also felt that he hadn't played such a comfortable game in a long time. He only needed to follow behind and complete simple positioning and shooting.

Because the opponent's energy was all focused on Su Zhe in the first position, this made it very comfortable for him to harvest the enemy in the second time.

However, it also made him feel a little emotional. Every member of the other team had won numerous championship honors in a short period of time. Except for Ale, they also had their own Major championships.

Now put together, it seems a bit mediocre.

As expected, in the CSGO arena, there are no legends that exist forever. They will only become stepping stones for newcomers as time goes by.

The three-minute half-time break ended quickly and the game between the two sides continued.

"Come on! Keep up the form! Try to win the pistol round and take the map first!" DJL gave his final instructions behind him.

The two sides switched sides, and NIP started on the defensive side.

"Let's just stand in the normal 3A2B formation, but judging by the opponent's style, it's very likely that they'll group together and attack us in a wave."

After thinking for a moment, es3tag said, "How about this, k0nfig, give Arrow a pair of pistols and let him guard B."

"If you're 3A, you can play a little more proactively at the start. Clear the side lanes first to see your opponent's attack intentions. That way, we can gamble on A or B the next time."

After arranging the tactics for the pistol round, the preparation time was just over.

Su Zhe picked up the double guns on the ground, bought half armor in the store, and then walked towards point B according to es3tag's tactical arrangements.

"Just hold the sandbag. As long as you see someone or hear footsteps nearby, I will flash and clear them from behind." es3tag used all his money in this round to buy props, just to match the dual guns in Su Zhe's hands.

After hearing this, Su Zhe went straight behind the sandbag and began to wait quietly.

But he didn't expect that before the bandits from Banana Road attacked, he received the news that k0nfig was killed by Ale at the bottom of the spiral staircase.

"There's only one person in the side lane!" k0nfig reported the information and then said depressedly, "REZ, you're blocking my way!"

The two of them walked together to the spiral staircase, intending to pull the side passage together.

As a result, k0nfig was the first to be pulled out and saw the bandits. He fired a shot at the first moment but missed.

So he thought about adjusting his position and positioning himself, but he was blocked by REZ who was pulled out next to him, and became a sitting duck and was killed by the opponent.

After getting the kill, Ale immediately retreated to the cover and did not give REZ a chance to shoot again.

REZ ignored k0nfig's complaints, and he didn't dare to stay alone in Building A2 for too long, so he retreated directly to the boiler room.

After seeing that one of the opponents had lost a player at point A, C9 sped up and pressed forward in the middle lane, and Ale from the side lane also followed.

This caused REZ to be in an awkward position in the boiler room, and Ale, who was directly surrounded by men on both sides, got the kill again.

NIP instantly fell into a huge disadvantage in terms of numbers.

Headtr1ck, the only one left in the connection, did not dare to stand up to the defense and directly retreated to the bomb site to look for an opportunity.

But facing C9's explosive bombs and the three people's combined attack, he died in vain after two bullets missed his head.

Su Zhe and es3tag both returned to the police station to defend, but seeing the situation, they retreated back to the B site to protect their guns.

One of them is wearing half armor and holding two guns, and the other is carrying pliers and smoke flash. If they survive, they can make a strong attack in the next round.

But C9 didn't want them to protect their guns, so when C4 was about to explode, the five of them gathered together to encircle and suppress it.

After Su Zhe used his double guns to catch two people, he was shot down by concentrated fire. Instead, es3tag stood on the stage and used the Glock in his hand to kill two people in succession, saving the props.

The score then came to 9-4, which also gave C9 a chance to catch their breath.

es3tag looked at his teammates' economic panels and sighed secretly.

We lost the pistol round, after all, the opponent's attack was really decisive.

But what worried him was that Su Zhe failed to keep his half armor, otherwise he could have used a half-armor FAMAS in this round, which would have given him a chance to turn the tables.

As a result, he is now short of money, and the items he saved are of little use.

So es3tag chose pure E to quickly get through the economic round, and then try to widen the score in the spear round.

However, Su Zhe had two kills in the last round, so he could use a Desert Eagle to try to knock down a few of the opponent's spears.

After the countdown ended, Su Zhe walked directly to his main defense connection position.

His position was better this round, and he was the first to come to the middle lane to block the bandit's mouth, to see if he could find an opportunity to kill him.

But C9 also appeared very cautious after winning the pistol round and did not show up in front of the bandits at the first time.

Su Zhe fought for several seconds but no one came out of the bandit's mouth. Judging from the time, he estimated that the other party might have come to the VIP room by now.

So he switched positions and came to the left side of the middle lane: "REZ, help me check the side lane on the right, and then I will set up the middle lane."

"Row."

REZ chose to agree without hesitation. After all, in this round, only the Desert Eagle in Su Zhe's hand was more combat-effective. The USPs of others were basically like tickling when hitting the bandit's full armor.

After getting a positive answer from REZ, Su Zhe once again focused his attention on holding the bandit's mouth.

Suddenly, when he saw a small head popping out of the sewer, he swung his Desert Eagle over in an instant.

"Bang~"

Arrow kills HObbit with a headshot using the Desert Eagle.

"That shot was spot-on!" Danking exclaimed in a melodious voice. "Master Huo tried to go down the sewer from the side lane to help Ah Le push into the middle lane and seize control, but he was killed the moment he showed his head!"

"Knocking down a spear is already a big win, but turning the tables is still going to be difficult. The NIP guys haven't even put up a little armor. Let's see how many more spears Xiaozhe can knock down with this Desert Eagle in his hand!"

After Su Zhe killed the enemy with a headshot, he quickly retreated into A1.

He wasn't sure if anyone was on board the VIP, and there was a high possibility that he would be caught sideways by the bandits who went around to the boiler room.

Seeing this, REZ also retreated to the connection point, but the moment he turned his head, Ale who came around the side lane seized the opportunity, and Curry shot and easily took the head.

"Are there many Banana Taoist priests?" Su Zhe stopped after seeing the kill information, and then used the cover of A1 to block the gap in the middle lane.

"Not sure, but at least two." es3tag answered on the microphone.

After hearing this, Su Zhe had a rough idea in his mind and focused his attention again on defending the middle road.

Suddenly, a Molotov cocktail flew out from the middle position, and judging from its trajectory, it should have burned the area under the stable.

"It seems like the opponent really wants to control the middle lane first..."

Seeing this, Su Zhe suddenly had a bold idea.

Before the Molotov cocktail hit the ground, he took a few quiet steps forward, perfectly avoiding the burning range of the Molotov cocktail.

Then he stuck to the wall outside the boiler room and set up the headshot line. Compared with the middle lane, this position was larger and closer and smaller.

As long as the other party dares to come out, I will definitely see him first.

Sure enough, after waiting for two seconds, he saw the bandit's arm exposed, and saw that he was doing a pre-aiming challenge.

Su Zhe did not rush to shoot for fear of scaring away the opponent.

Because what he wanted to do was not just to prevent the opponent from getting control of the middle lane, but he was thinking about how to kill the opponent with one blow.

But Ale did not rush into the middle lane, instead he first gave up a connected cigarette.

Seeing this, Su Zhe didn't want to wait any longer. He seized the opportunity when the other party gave him a cigarette and took the initiative to walk out with big strides.

After seeing the bandit lying on the side, he controlled the mouse in his hand and quickly swung the crosshairs towards his head.

"Bang~"

Arrow kills Ax1Le with a headshot from the Desert Eagle.

"It seems that Desert Eagle is better at getting headshots when attacking from the side than from behind."

After Su Zhe got the kill, he peeked at the bandit again. When he found that no one was holding a gun, he immediately picked up the curry on the ground.

Ale, who was killed, was shocked for a moment. How come there is still someone in A1!

Fat Ball, who was controlling the lane with his teammates, felt something was wrong when he saw that both of his teammates in the middle lane were killed.

He immediately gave the order: "Explode the bombs and attack B quickly! Capture the bomb site first!"

Fat Ball now knew that the opponent was in Eco mode, and he wanted to minimize the losses and win the round. However, he was unexpectedly killed by two Desert Eagles at the beginning, and it also gave the opponent a chance to pick up the spear.

Now we can only win this round at all costs.

"Is C9 about to start a bomb attack? es3tag immediately gave up the banana lane and chose to defend at the back point. It depends on whether he can delay it until his teammates return to defense."

"k0nfig was double-teamed up on the flower bed, while es3tag circled around the church. Electronic Brother was about to pass. Did he know there was someone on the flower bed? He did! But he still got shot in the head by USP! Can es3tag, who's in the coffin position, finish off this low-health guy?"

"He was not killed! Fatty had already got under the coffin and took es3tag's head with a hair dryer!" Danking observed the live broadcast and thought to himself what a pity, such a good chance for a comeback was gone.

The double defense in area B was instantly broken, leaving Su Zhe and headtr1ck with a 2V3 situation.

"How about we keep our guns? I'll see if I can pick up the spear that dropped in the sewer opposite." headtr1ck suggested. After all, neither of them had armor, and it would be too difficult to complete this endgame.

Su Zhe:
Do they think the other side is stupid? There was no information from the mid lane just now, and the gun that was dropped must have been dealt with by C9 a long time ago.

He said on the microphone, "Let's give it a try. We can still get going next round anyway. It's a win if we can hold them back and let the C4 explode. How about this? You go from the middle lane to block the people running away from Banana Road, and I'll look for an opportunity from the police's side."

As long as you can get rid of all the guns, even if the opponent wins this round, they will be less financially competitive in the next round.

As he said this, he threw the eliminated Desert Eagle in his hand to headtr1ck, and rushed from the police house to the B site.

At this time, C9 had completed the bombing. Su Zhe first used the defensive smoke of C9's police house to come to the church, but found that the opponent also gave him the defensive smoke of the coffin, making it impossible for him to find a position to steal the kill.

"Captain, where did you die just now?" Su Zhe suddenly spoke while waiting for the smoke to clear.

"It's right here in the coffin. You can touch it if you're in the smoke," es3tag said in surprise, suddenly realizing something. "Are you trying to steal the bag?"

"Just want to try it, what if?"

Su Zhe went straight into the smoke of the coffin. After seeing the pliers logo appear in the lower right corner of the screen, he came to the back of the coffin again in the smoke.

Although he thought it was impossible for C9 not to set up a smoke bomb, he didn't think the opponent would stand close to the smoke bomb to set up a smoke bomb.

This cigarette happened to be quite shallow, giving him many opportunities to try.

As the sound of C4 became increasingly rapid, the smoke bomb began to show signs of dissipating.

"headtr1ck, can you do something on Banana Road?" Su Zhe said.

"Isn't it a broken gun? Oh! Sure!" Headtr1ck reacted immediately and walked to the location of the banana road wooden board.

After peeking out to take a look at the buns, he quickly retreated.

Immediately afterwards, Su Zhe heard the sound of gunfire from the audience.

One of them is in the audience... The other one should be in the third or first or second box of coffin cigarettes...

At this time, the smoke bomb completely dissipated. Su Zhe did not rush to pull out, but continued to say: "headtr1ck, can you come out and give it a try? Of course it would be better if you can get a kill."

After hearing this, headtr1ck wanted to complain. Human desires are indeed insatiable. Just now, he was just making some noises...

"let me try……"

As he spoke, headtr1ck used the Desert Eagle to directly aim at the position under the stage and pulled it out. As a result, the fat ball under the stage had slightly changed its position.

Then, without any armor, he was instantly melted.

"I shot a bullet in the audience with my Desert Eagle!"

After hearing this, Su Zhe peeked out from behind the coffin.

After discovering that no one was in the third box at the first moment, he moved again to look at the second box.

At this time, C4's voice was becoming more and more urgent, and Fatty had already thought of asking people to leave.

Marshal P was listening to Fatty's words and was a little distracted when he suddenly saw a CT being pulled out from behind the coffin.

"Where did it come from?" His crosshairs were always on the church, and knowing that the opponent liked to pull big, he specially left a little buffer space.

Suddenly, a person jumped out from near the coffin.

Marshal P reacted and immediately adjusted his crosshairs, but it was too late.

"Tetete~"

Arrow kills Perfecto with a headshot using the Galil AR.

Su Zhe, who got the kill, did not pause for a moment and pulled out again with his aim at the position below the stage.

Knowing that the opponent was low on health, Su Zhe aimed at the opponent's body and shot quickly after seeing him.

"Tetete~"

Arrow kills Boombl4 using the Galil AR

Everything happened so fast that the C9 players didn't even have time to react.

"There's only one low-health Electronic Man left hiding in a dead zone! It's a 1v1 situation! We only have ten seconds left to C4!"

"That's more than enough! It all depends on whether we can find Brother Dianzi's location! Xiaozhe guessed it! He's heading straight for the dead center!"

"Dianzige heard footsteps and tried to fire a preemptive shot, but Xiaozhe feinted and pulled him out the next second!"

"Tete~"

Arrow kills ElectroNic with Galil AR

"Nice!! Unpack the package quickly! Unpack the package quickly! There's still enough time! I thought you were going to steal the package!" es3tag made an excited sound!

After all, the town is just a paper map, and the bandits will choose to run away before the C4 explodes.

After finishing unpacking, Su Zhe let out a long sigh. After releasing the tension in his heart, he smiled and said, "Isn't this considered stealing a bag? The bandits across the street weren't even looking at me."

k0nfig chuckled when he heard this: "Fuck stealing a bag! Even if the other team is lying on the ground and not looking at you, that still counts as stealing a bag, right?"

With NIP's strong start and comeback, the score between the two sides came to 10-4. What collapsed was not only C9's economy, but also their own mentality.

Even though five of them were fully armored, they were actually overturned by the opponent's unarmored pure E!

Then, under the command of Fat Ball, C9 also launched a strong wave. Without many props, they chose the banana path to speed up the flash.

But es3tag had anticipated this. He was best at dealing with this kind of brainless play because he liked to do it himself.

With just two fires and two mines, C9's overall condition was reduced by half. Brother Electronic, who was preparing to make a last shot at the back point, was hit by two full mines and fell asleep directly.

The next few people were silenced and stood still, and basically one of them died one by one.

Faced with the ever-widening score gap, C9 also lost their last chance to turn the game around.

"NICE! Congratulations to NIP for winning the first game of Bo13 4-3! No more words! Just roll with a Hydra!" The expression on Danking's face was even more excited than the five NIP players who won the game.

"Xiaozhe got another pentakill! And he did it without any armor! This is such a hot hand!"

This C9 is really a bit of a loser! They had such a good chance to catch up in the second half, but they just gave it away.

[There's nothing I can do! Xiaozhe is in such great shape, he kills instantly when we meet. There's not much difference between him with armor and without armor.]

[It was mainly because of that comeback. Too many C9 players were at low health. They died if hit by bullets. The only full-health Marshal P was killed for nothing.]

Xiaozhe now has two highlight reels per game. A single Bo3 match has more highlights than Dan has from his entire career over the past few years. It's outrageous!

"What do you mean more than my highlights from several years? My Sha Er Middle Gate and the Death Tower endgame, which one isn't more awesome than this?"

Danking looked dissatisfied. "Besides, Xiaozhe played so well today, shouldn't I take half the credit? If it weren't for my Steam friends, the NIP map would have been gone long ago."

"Still posting question marks? Where's the housing manager? They've all banned me!"

Seeing Danking, who has taken on the role of a veteran actor, the viewers in the live broadcast room were also very happy.

You only have more Valorant highlights than Xiaozhe.

[I feel not as good as Danking, I feel not as good as Danking]

[Why do I feel like NIP's second image is going to be bad! They seem to have played a game in the Death Amusement Park in the past few months, and they're probably going to get to the third image.]

When Danking saw the comments criticizing NIP, he immediately denied it: "Given NIP's current state, even Anubis, who has never played before, could easily crush C9, let alone Death Paradise."

"How about this! If C9 wins this game, I'll roll an extra butterfly knife!"

Su Zhe, who was thousands of miles away, always felt itchy on his back, as if something was inserted into it.

In the C9 player seat.

After the game, the five players all had confused expressions on their faces, and it was obvious that they found the result of Figure 1 a little difficult to accept.

Although everyone knows that NIP has a particularly awesome new player who can lead the rhythm of the entire team by himself.

But before you actually meet him, you will inevitably have some doubts in your heart.

After all, they themselves are geniuses among geniuses, so of course it is impossible for them to easily convince others.

Now that they have finished the first picture, they are not only defeated, but also a little depressed.

When I thought about how I lost to a newcomer who had just debuted, and compared it with the honors I had won, I felt overwhelmed with frustration.

After taking a few deep breaths to adjust his mentality, Fatty looked at his teammates who were either in a daze or covering their faces, and he knew he had to do something.

After all, the game is not over yet and the process is less than halfway through. If you give up this Bo3 early, you will not only be laughed at by your former teammates, but you may also lose your job.

"Come on!" Fatty shouted loudly, drawing everyone's attention. "The game isn't over yet, how come everyone is acting like this? We only lost one map, it's not like we haven't come back from a 1-2 deficit before."

"What's more, the next map is ours, how can the other team win against us?"

As Fat Ball took the initiative to break the silence, the expressions of the C9 players also changed.

Fat Ball was right. The small town in Map 1 was not a map they were good at, so it was natural that they lost.

But the following Death Amusement Park and Ancient Ruins are different. They are the maps they have used the most recently and have the highest winning rate.

After regaining some confidence, everyone in C9 began to actively adjust their mindset.

He's just a newcomer. Who hasn't been a new player who amazed the audience?
