When Sniper King Baixiao recovered to full HP, his face was still grim, and his expression was full of disbelief.
His level 3 helmet was destroyed by the last two sniper shots, but his opponent didn't even lose a single bit of HP and drop some blood.
Such a result of the sniper battle was brutal; it was like he was being executed in public. It was so embarrassing.
The big words that Sniper King Baixiao said before now turned into slaps onto his face, slapping him very hard.
Slap!
Slap!
Slap!
Those slaps were loud and embarrassing!
...
Moreover...
Lin Ye only used a 98K.
When Sniper King Baixiao was stream sniping, he clearly saw that Lin Ye had an AWM on him.
That was the king of guns and could break a level 3 helmet in one shot!
However, when Lin Ye engaged in the sniper battle with him, he chose a 98K...
This was such a huge difference!
In other words, if Lin Ye used the AWM to fight him, Sniper King Baixiao would have been shot dead by the first snipe.
Plus, Lin Ye was standing in the center of the road and making huge movements when he was doing his sniping mechanics...
Sniper King Baixiao could feel that Lin Ye did not view him as a person anymore.
Anger, shame, and rage...
Ever since Sniper King Baixiao became famous, there were simps wherever he went. It had been a long time since he was treated with such disdain.
Ignored.
He was completely being ignored.
That f*cking Lin Ye doesn't even see me as an opponent!
Damn it!
F*ck!
How dare this f*cking *sshole make me look like a clown in public!
So much so that...
At the beginning of this sniper match, Sniper King Baixiao thought that his two shots with his M24 should hit Lin Ye… More so, he thought that the shots would 99 percent be headshots...
Lin Ye was a still target that was only 200 meters away.
It was such a simple snipe. To Sniper King Baixiao, who was a top sniper in China, it was definitely something incredibly easy.
In theory, it was basically a sure win, but he missed both shots in reality.
...
This strange result plus Lin Ye's exaggerated performance from earlier on seemed to lead to one conclusion...
He is cheating!
This Lin Ye is definitely cheating!
Aimbot!
Script hack!
This f*cking cheater is not only using an aimbot, but he is also able to dodge my bullets!
As he thought of all those things, Sniper King Baixiao cursed loudly, "Cheater. F*cking cheater!"
Sniper King Baixiao's true emotions were exposed this time. If he only suspected Lin Ye of cheating before, then now he was 100 percent sure that Lin Ye was cheating.
From Sniper King Baixiao's perspective, there wasn't a single person in China that could have such a large advantage over him in a direct sniper battle.
...
My level 3 helmet exploded, but you are unwounded…
That's not right!
That's impossible!
Simultaneously, the bullet comments in Sniper King Baixiao's stream went crazy after his words.
"F*ck! F*ck! F*ck! I knew that this dumb*ss Lin Ye is cheating. He was faking it before! F*ck that pretentious cheater!"
"Yeah. He definitely is using a script hack if he can dodge Baixiao-sama's bullets."
"Hehehe, what a great actor this cheater is. I am losing faith in humanity."
"Standing in the middle of the road in a sniper battle? Isn't this the basic mechanics of a cheater?"
"What 98K Lin Ye? He's just Cheater Lin Ye!"
"Lin Ye is a proven cheater!"
"I knew Lin Ye was a cheater all along. When I went to his stream to criticize him, he banned me forever. Isn't that him having a guilty conscience?"
Explosion.
Sniper King Baixiao's cursing instantly blew up the bullet comments in his stream.
How can a nameless little streamer like you win a sniper battle against our Baixiao-sama like that. Isn't that a cheater?
Clean?
Clean what?!
After all, this was Sniper King Baixiao's stream, and most of these viewers were his fans. His one phrase had lit his whole stream up.
Cheater!
Our Baixiao-sama has proven Lin Ye to be a cheater. Can Baixiao-sama even be wrong?
Sniper King Baixiao, as the last champion of Douyu's All-Star Solo Championship, was very credible in the eyes of viewers.
So when Sniper King Baixiao said something, innumerous viewers chose to believe him unconditionally.
All of a sudden, Sniper King Baixiao's stream was filled with curses and profanities. It was a very distasteful scene.
Sniper King Baixiao did not have his moderators stop the endless curses and profanities; he felt a thrill instead. His viewers were criticizing everything about Lin Ye and calling him names, and that made Sniper King Baixiao very, very happy!!!
"I still have a chance even if I don't have a helmet!"
The joy Sniper King Baixiao felt made him regain the desire for battle.
He was only at a disadvantage without a level 3 helmet; he hadn't lost yet.
As long as he could shoot Lin Ye in the head twice, he could still win even though he was at the disadvantage.
As one of the top snipers in China, Sniper King Baixiao didn't lack skill or confidence. He believed that as long as he fought, he would have a chance to win against all odds.
...
- Meanwhile -
The scene in Lin Ye's stream was drastically different.
When Lin Ye shot twice and destroyed Sniper King Baixiao's helmet with his 98K, a dense screen of "6666" bullet comments appeared in his stream.
Under the big wave of 666s, those who were trying to sway the public opinion the other way were nowhere to be seen.
Thrilling.
So thrilling.
Those two 98K instant snipe headshots were so thrilling for the viewers of his stream to watch.
"66666~66666~6666~"
"Ahahaha, wonderful. So wonderful. That's the right way to play!"
"Both shots from the 98K hit Sniper King Baixiao's level 3 helmet. Streamer, you're so incredible this time."
"Crazy. Super crazy. Those who liked to accuse our Smug Streamer of cheating; are you persuaded now?"
"Wow! Wow! Wow! Those snipes were so thrilling to watch."
"Smug Streamer, you're so f*cking smug. You're standing right in the middle of the road while you're in a sniper battle. Are you not treating your opponent like a human?"
"That terrible shooter Sniper King Baixiao can't even touch the streamer with any bullet. What a noob!"
"Sniper King Baixiao: My skill isn't as good as yours. I give up."
Blood was boiling!
Blood was really boiling.
Even Little Bear, who had come to Lin Ye's stream a while ago, was excited. Her beautiful eyes shined as if tears were going to come out.
A pretty girl was about to cry...
It meant that she was really excited!
A shot from the 98K reversed the situation.
Another shot from a 98K maxed his aura.
Lin Ye did not explain anything while his stream was flooded with bullet comments calling him a coward. He had just calmly shot those two 98K shots, which magically dispersed all the doubting voices.
Two 98K shots destroyed a level 3 helmet, while Lin Ye remained unharmed.
Lin Ye was definitely at an advantageous position in this sniper battle with Sniper King Baixiao, as he was crushing the so-called Sniper King.
Especially how he was standing in the middle of the road and shooting openly. His stream's viewers were all shocked and confused by such actions.
You have cover while I don't, but I still can crush you!
However, many viewers did not understand why Lin Ye was sniping from the middle of the road.
He could have cover, but why didn't he use it in the sniper battle?
If he was shot in the head in the middle of the road, he wouldn't be able to recover his HP without cover!
Little Bear, who had been silently watching Lin Ye's stream, couldn't suppress her curiosity, so she suddenly asked the question with a bullet comment using her king user account, "Lin Ye, why do you need to snipe in the middle of the road?"
Lin Ye naturally saw the golden bullet comment quickly, and he said calmly, "It's simple. I don't want to take advantage of other people."
"Ah? You don't like taking advantage of others?" Little Bear looked confused as she did not understand what Lin Ye meant at all.
Lin Ye smiled and explained, "Sniper King Baixiao is at the edge of the safe zone. He would need to move when the next safe zone spawns. My location is closer to the center of the safe zone. Even if I must move for the next safe zone, it would take a lot longer for the blue zone to get to me and hurt me, so I have the terrain advantage over him."
"So…"
"I came out of my cover and am standing in the middle of the road to snipe. This destroys that advantage I have over him."
"He's closer to the blue zone while I don't have a cover. This way, we can have a fair sniper battle."
Lin Ye was very calm and confident when he spoke. It showed that he truly thought this way.
Winning...
He was going to win honestly and make the loser admit defeat.
Little Bear was surprised by Lin Ye's explanation. Even a spark of shock appeared in her eyes.
This man…
Is truly too good at being pretentious!!!
