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

Chapter 40 Are they really that bad? (Late but still there)

March 31th, 2024

Nip played their first game with their new lineup.

k0nfig, sitting in the player's booth, flexed his fingers and sighed, "I didn't expect to run into ENCE again. What a narrow path for enemies!"

"Last time at the CAC event in Shanghai, we were eliminated by ENCE 2-1."

REZ echoed, "Indeed, there is no way to truly take revenge."

Su Zhe asked like a curious baby: "Why? Is it difficult to deal with?"

headtr1ck explained, "Because Falcns bought out almost all of ENCE's players a while ago, leaving only Nertz, who also went to Team X. Wasn't he on the opposing team during your last tryout? Now all five ENCE players have been replaced."

"That's it." Su Zhe recalled it but still couldn't remember it. He still couldn't remember the IDs of those not very famous players.

es3tag then reminded, "Alright, the game is about to start, pay attention, the opposing team's caller is gla1ve."

gla1ve was one of the creators of Team A's three consecutive Major championships, and was also the captain and commander of Team A.

Although the dynasty has collapsed with the changes in the version and gla1ve is no longer the top commander, the honor is still there and cannot be underestimated.

k0nfig laughed heartily, "Don't worry! We'll definitely win our first match today! By the way, Arrow, are you still feeling nervous?"

Su Zhe:
It would be fine if I didn't mention it, but once I do, I can't help but have other thoughts, most of which are excitement.

"I'm fine, it's okay."

Su Zhe didn't want to make his teammates worry too much, so he planned to adjust his mentality.

Moreover, there were no spectators in the venue for the qualifying matches, and he kept reminding himself that this was just an ordinary training match.

Although my original intention of joining Nip was to complete the task, I have been working hard for a month.

It would be too painful if I failed to advance in the qualifying round and was demoted to youth training. I have to show something no matter what.

Soon, at the referee's notice, both sides began to ban and select maps.

The first round of the qualifying match was a Bo1 format, and es3tag came up and banned Anubis immediately.

Their team is a traditional hexagonal warrior and did not play this map for the entire last year.

After some hesitation, ENCE banned the Nuclear Crisis tactical map.

After a series of bans and selections, the BO1 map of both sides finally fell on the Ancient Ruins.

After the final warm-up, players from both sides began to enter the server at the referee's notice.

Map: Ancient Ruins

ENCE: dycha, hades, gla1ve, kalar, Goofy
Nip: es3tag, k0nfig, headtr1ck, REZ, Arrow
After a fierce battle to choose sides, Nip, who won, chose to start on the defensive side.

"Come on! Beat them!" The teammates gave each other fist bumps to encourage each other.

"Come on!" Su Zhe cheered for his teammates and himself at the same time.

……

6657 live broadcast room.

The guy playing the machine cleared his throat and said, "Okay guys, today we're going to watch Nip vs. ENCE..."

Before he could finish his words about playing the machine, the barrage of comments started to set the pace.

【? ? ? ? ? ? ? 】

What's so good about these two teams?

[I understand. Since the fathers of the people who play the machines are not around, I can only indirectly show my filial piety by watching Grewu’s games.]

Watch the C9 match on the main stage! I want to watch Dian Ge! If not, I'll unfollow him!

[These two teams are done with their shit, what's there to watch?]

【…】

The player who was playing the machine glanced at the dense barrage of comments on the secondary screen and couldn't help but find it a little funny.

He insisted on opening the secondary stage game and said, "Actually, the match between these two teams is quite interesting. I mainly want to see how this newcomer Nip performs."

After saying that, he stared at the secondary screen to see the reactions of the audience in the live broadcast room.

Nip's new guy? Arrow? What the hell is this? Which second-tier team did they buy him from?

[Oh shit! Asian? Chinese? Isn't he the same as the Banana Man?]

[Why does the ID Arrow look so familiar? ]

[WDF? Isn't this the streamer who went from C+ to number one on the platform last year? Why did he go to Nip?!]

[I remember now! Holy crap! I bet my friend that he'd definitely win Gui, but he ended up playing professionally in Nip?]

[Is that the Tangren who went to Tianlu for a trial and said he wanted to be promoted to the main team in one year?]

From C+ to Nip's main team in just over four months? No, man, is that right?

【…】

The person playing the machine smiled secretly while watching the barrage. He had heard of this person named Arrow before. After all, the CSGO circle in China was so small.

He had seen Su Zhe's live broadcast room when he was browsing Douyin before. But he never expected that he would go to Nip to play professionally for no apparent reason. Although Nip's current strength is not as good as some second-tier teams, it is still a shell of a first-tier team!
After so many years of watching games on the computer, this is the first time I’ve heard that someone from China can join a European team.

It's really too magical!
"Okay, the pistol round is about to start, let's take a look at the equipment configurations of both sides..." The man playing the machine put aside other thoughts and decided to watch the game to the end first.

……

"This round we'll start with a normal 212 defense. k0nfig, you start by going to the middle lane to get information. The rest of you will just stay put and wait and see if the opponent gives you a chance."

es3tag also attached great importance to this qualifying round, so he arranged a more conservative position in the defense of the pistol round.

After the countdown ended, Su Zhe bought half armor in the store and went directly to the A site.
According to the team's arrangement, his main defensive position in this map is area A.

"The opponent gave VIP a smoke! I can't see the information of the middle lane!" Suddenly, k0nfig's voice came from the headset.

After thinking for a moment, es3tag said, "Then you should hold the Vip cigarette first and be ready to support both sides at any time."

Before es3tag could finish his words, k0nfig's anxious cry could be heard again: "The opponent flashed and created a smoke screen! At least three VIPs must come in!"

Su Zhe glanced at the kill information in the upper right corner and found that k0nfig had been killed by the bandits' concentrated fire.

So he turned the muzzle of his gun and looked towards the police's house. After seeing the bandits appear, he aimed the USP crosshairs in his hand and swung it over.

"Pfft!"

Arrow kills Kalar with a headshot using USP.

After seeing k3nfig killed, es0tag was about to retreat and defend, intending to see whether the bandits would attack B or A. Unexpectedly, Su Zhe took the initiative to go out and fight.

He was just about to call him back when a message came from the upper right corner saying that Su Zhe had gotten the kill.

"Good gun! Retreat first!"

"puff!"

Arrow kills G00fy with a headshot using USP

es3tag: ? ?

His brain hadn't reacted yet, how did they suddenly have the advantage in numbers?

After seeing two kills, he decided to step back and wait for his teammates at B site to return to defend before attacking together.

Then... he saw Su Zhe taking the initiative to move sideways towards the police house.

"Puff puff!"

Arrow kills Hades with a headshot using USP.

[gla1ve kills Arrow with a headshot using a Glock]

"There is another person who was shot twice! The bomb is on him!" The dead Su Zhe shouted hurriedly in the voice.

Nip everyone:? ?

What happened? How come you're almost done killing people?

es3tag was the first to react. He glanced at the small map and found that his teammates at the B bomb site were almost back to defend. He then pulled out horizontally to actively look for a kill.

When he saw the bandit with the grenade pack was about to retreat to the VIP, he hurriedly shot the bandit to death with two shots from the USP in his hand.

Dycha, the only bandit left outside Hall A, had planned to wait for his teammates to occupy the police house before going out of Hall A to launch a joint attack. However, in the blink of an eye, all his teammates were killed.

In the 3V1 endgame, the thunder bag was discovered, but he didn't struggle too much. After trying for a while, he was shot down by Nip and his three teammates.

"Brother, you're awesome! You got a triple kill right away!" k0nfig, who died early, excitedly bumped fists with Su Zhe and shouted.

"No, the opponent's musket and horse gave me a chance." Su Zhe felt a little embarrassed by k0nfig's straightforward praise.

In fact, he didn't expect the opponent to be so bad. When he saw k0nfig lose the point first, his first reaction was to go and finish him off.

After getting a kill, he wanted to retreat, but a bandit came up from behind. The other party's two shots missed his head and gave him another chance to get a kill.

Then he discovered that the intensity of this gunfight was not as high as the "simulated training ground" before going to bed at night...

Then I got too excited. Since I had already gotten two kills, I might as well just go for it.

es3tag originally wanted to warn Su Zhe to pay attention to team discipline, but after hearing the conversation between the two of them, he didn't know what to say.

Because getting a triple kill was a great contribution to the team, otherwise it would have been difficult to defend 4 against 5.

The commentator who was commentating on the game was also stunned. Just when he said that the newcomer was a little inexperienced, the situation on the field was instantly reversed.

This made him feel a little awkward to comment, so he could only temporarily change his words: "This young general...his shooting skills are quite accurate!"

"ENCE originally planned to speed up the mid lane and double A, and they successfully got k0nfig's head at the beginning, but they were quickly taken down by Arrow's USP just as they reached the police station!"

"A wave of three kills directly shattered ENCE's offensive plan! This is a complete victory in terms of shooting skills!"

The audience in the live broadcast room couldn't hold it anymore. They even started to suspect whether Su Zhe was a relative of Boss Nip.

Otherwise, how could he have somehow entered Nip's main team?

As a result, the opening move was a triple kill with a pistol, which shocked them directly!

I'm not here to hang out with Nip, I'm here to be his big daddy!
