The countdown began.
Yan Yibing hurriedly maneuvers in a snake-like pattern in the training square, looking as if the mouse was scalding his hand.
Other professional players opened the public microphone.
“Hey everyone, who did you get matched with? Let’s hear it while we wait.”
Because it’s an exhibition match, some people actually respond.
“I’m from Team Firefly, paired with Keno from Infinite.”
“CNG’s Lu Jianghe, my teammate is AXE’s Xu Ran, what a twist of fate.”
“Prince’s Xiao Nuo and Zero’s Song Tang.”
“Wow, the butler duo of Prince and Zero, what a coincidence!”
As voices multiplied, the training square became lively. Professional players got to know each other, and in random team assignments like this, it felt refreshing.
In team matches, you could figure out the opponent’s tactics, and when you meet in domestic competitions later, you’ll have an idea.
Someone finally asked, “Where’s Bing Shen? Why isn’t he saying anything?”
“I also want to know who Han Shen is paired with. Who’s got such good luck?”
“???”
“They’re not saying anything. Are they taking this game so seriously?”
“Damn, if these two lucky guys don’t show up and admit it, they’ll be targeted by everyone later!”
“Tsk, mysterious. Could it be a crazy confession on the team voice chat?”
Still, no one answered.
The audience watching everything on stage is bewildered.
The male commentator, with a flushed face, laughs. “We’ll know who Ice God and Han Shen are paired with once they come out. What great destiny, hahaha!”
The female commentator said, “Right now, we see that Bing Shen and Han Shen haven’t even marked a jump point. Could they be planning to go solo?”
Fans: “They better not!”
Yan Yibing repeatedly opened the map to observe.
Several locations on this flight path are good.
Lion City and Pecado were both places with abundant resources and concentrated players. Basically, landing there meant an immediate firefight.
He wasn’t afraid of firefights, but he estimates that it won’t take long for others to realize that he and Han Mo are on the same team.
Han Mo kept staring at the familiar name on the screen, his left index finger trembling slightly.
Zero-ICE.
This ID holds extraordinary significance for him.
After two years, he’s finally teamed up with him again, albeit briefly, but it’s profound.
Yan Yibing hadn’t spoken to him yet; instead, he was dancing in the training square.
Han Mo softly scoffed, and his Adam’s apple rolled slowly.
Watching the countdown about to end, he finally turned on the microphone.
The green little horn lights up, “You command.”
Yan Yibing finally stops dancing.
As the countdown ends, he only manages to say this sentence before everyone boards the plane.
After a few seconds of silence, just as Han Mo is about to jump to Lion City for a fierce gunfight, Yan Yibing’s little horn rings.
“Jump to the Power Plant.”
His voice is very light, and if Han Mo’s ears weren’t sharp, he might not have heard it.
The almost nonexistent electric current sound of the earphones accompanies Yan Yibing’s voice, as if it’s right next to his ear.
Close, just like when Yan Yibing used to approach him, thin lips slightly parted, and his breath carried a faint fragrance.
In the Power Plant, the loot isn’t poor. After searching, you can also block opponents running circles on the main route after finishing the Power Plant.
With no time to talk, as soon as Yan Yibing finished speaking, both of them jumped.
Yan Yibing, soaring high, scans the area and keenly spots two players descending simultaneously.
His tongue tingles, almost reporting numbers as usual.
But thinking about the teammate being Han Mo, he forcefully restrains himself.
Han Mo isn’t blind.
As the two land, Yan Yibing quickly sneaked into the Power Plant, swiftly searching around and picking up a Vector.
His eyes light up, but he doesn’t continue searching for loot.
Relying on the direction where he remembers the enemy landing, he stealthily moves over.
The opponent certainly spots them.
Yan Yibing hides behind the cover, surveys the surroundings, and then sneaks towards the main building.
They each occupy one workshop. If there’s still no sound of gunfire now, the enemies are probably in the main building.
He reaches the entrance of the main building, opens his field of view, and keenly spots a figure moving.
Yan Yibing, relying on his powerful gunplay, raises the Vector and rushes in, straightforwardly firing a shot.
【Zero-ICE eliminated YH-runo with an S686】
runo isn’t angry, immediately turning on the microphone and joking, “Bing Shen, why did you come to the Power Plant to challenge us in the wilderness instead of Lion City?”
Yan Yibing tests to see if his teammate is around, quickly licking his bag.
Very poor, not even a scope.
Yan Yibing lazily says, “Blame it on my teammate being bad, can only slyly develop.”
runo: “Tsk, who’s your teammate?”
The next moment.
【Prince-momo eliminated JG-xiaoki with an M416】
From not far away, a cold and impatient voice says, “Me.”
Yan Yibing: “…” Didn’t expect Han Mo to suddenly come so close.
In the game, as long as public voice chat is on, conversations can be heard by people nearby who also have public voice chat on.
runo looks at the just-displayed kill information and the familiar, cold, and impatient voice.
runo: “???”
runo: “Are my eyes still there? Is it as I imagined?”
xiaoki: “It’s just as you imagined. We’ve found the lucky ones paired with the gods.”
Han Mo walked directly into the main building with his gun.
It felt like a husband catching his wife and lover secretly badmouthing him.
Yan Yibing licked his lips, moistening the dry lip line.
He didn’t intentionally call Han Mo bad, nor did he want Han Mo to hear. It was just a joke.
He coughed lightly, tossed runo aside, turned off the public voice chat, and turned to leave.
Han Mo quickened his pace and intercepted him.
Yan Yibing was a bit embarrassed and annoyed. “Seriously, Captain Han, can’t you take a joke?”
Immediately after, Han Mo threw a 4x scope in front of him.
Yan Yibing: “?”
Yan Yibing almost bit his tongue.
Fans—
“No, no, no, Han Shen, did your head get squeezed by the door? You only have one 4x scope!”
“I kowtow to the master-disciple duo. I don’t have much, but I’ll give you the best.”
“Han Mo’s wife fans are over the moon. Last time, when Prince and Han Shen played duos, even if he was asked for an 8x scope, Han Shen didn’t want to give it.”
“The loot at the Power Plant is so poor this time. Is Yan Yibing shameless enough to take it?”
Yan Yibing happily picked up the 4x scope, attached it to the SCAL-L assault rifle he looted from runo.
Fans: “…”
After pausing for a few seconds, Han Mo remained silent, turned around, and left.
Yan Yibing hesitated for a moment and then followed Han Mo outside.
Outside, Yan Yibing climbed up a hill in the wilderness, aimed through the scope for a while, and killed two people with single shots.
Han Mo was also by the roadside, taking down a person in a jeep.
The safe zone was about to shrink, and the Power Plant was outside the circle, making it unfriendly.
They had to hurry and get into the circle
Surveying the area near the power plant, there was only a motorcycle and a jeep that someone had delivered.
Yan Yibing, holding his gun, descended the slope. While running, he said to Han Mo, “Get in the car.”
He was referring to the jeep.
The jeep had much better damage resistance than the motorcycle, and the terrain on the desert map was relatively flat, with few obstructing trees, so driving the jeep was smoother.
“Hmm,” Han Mo replied without looking back, heading towards the motorcycle, and sat on the passenger seat without hesitation.
Yan Yibing: “?”
Han Mo: “The jeep is leaking oil and is prone to explode.”
From Yan Yibing’s perspective, he couldn’t see the direction of the fuel tank, so he believed it.
If the jeep explodes in the middle of the road, it would be a case of justice from heaven, and the gain would not be worth the lost.
If the car exploded in the middle of the road, it would be a stroke of justice, not worth the risk.
So, Yan Yibing changed the route and headed towards the motorcycle.
Audience—
“What kind of psychedelic operation is this? Not driving the jeep?”
“The jeep is fine; it just had a broken mirror. How is the motorcycle better than the jeep?”
The commentator, with a puzzled frown, speculated for a while and hesitated, “Uh… this might be a new tactic.”
For Yan Yibing, whether he drove or Han Mo drove, they had no problem shooting. At their level, the difference in esports skills is negligible.
Yan Yibing drove the motorcycle, charging up the slope.
Casually scanning the surroundings, Yan Yibing observed that there was no one nearby, but the possibility of suppressed gunfire couldn’t be ruled out.
Yan Yibing vigilantly listened to the sounds around him and then heard Han Mo holstering his gun.
Yan Yibing: “… Did you block the muzzle?”
In the game, characters naturally put their hands in front of them when they holster their guns.
Visually, it seemed like Han Mo was hugging him tightly from behind.
Han Mo’s breathing became heavier, and he hoarsely said, “Apply a bandage.”
Author’s Message:
Yan Yibing: Childish.
Han Mo: Next time, try it on a motorcycle on a bumpy road.
