Master Duel!

032. Expert Showdown!

Both of them were positioned on flat ground, each using a large rock for cover. They were no more than ten meters apart.

Xiao Hai's position was clearly better because he was in a wooded area, with plenty of trees and grass for concealment.

Jiang Siming, on the other hand, was in an open area with only that one rock; everywhere else was completely exposed.

However, this game wasn't about absolute fairness. This setup was already quite balanced.

Neither side had made a move yet.

The live streams of both streamers were silent, with even fewer danmaku messages.

The audience watched the duel with bated breath, too tense to send any danmaku.

Finally, Xiao Hai made the first move, rapidly firing at the corners of Jiang Siming's rock to lure him out.

Jiang Siming didn't spray and pray. His head flashed out from beside the rock and quickly retreated.

During that brief moment, Jiang Siming had already fired his 98k.

A quick scope!

The quick scope was back!

But would he hit this time?

The answer was yes!

The sound of a bullet hitting flesh instantly rang out from Xiao Hai's body.

Fortunately, it didn't hit his head but rather his Level 3 Armor on his shoulder.

Although he only lost a small sliver of health, it was enough to shock Xiao Hai!

"That accurate?" Xiao Hai exclaimed as he retreated to heal.

At his own computer desk, Little Lion didn't reply but stared intently at the screen.

His screen was showing Jiang Siming's live stream, Jiang Siming's first-person view.

Even he couldn't understand how Jiang Siming managed that quick scope.

"Does this guy… not need to aim?" The other OMG members, who had already been drawn over, gathered around Little Lion's computer.

No one was watching Xiao Hai's perspective, which made Xiao Hai feel like crying. Why isn't anyone watching me?

After observing for a long time, Little Lion finally spoke.

"Look at his hand holding the mouse in the camera feed. This guy is a classic arm aiming style user. He uses the feel of his arm to pre-aim without scoping. Wherever his arm points, the gun barrel is there!"

"Arm aiming isn't that rare. I use arm aiming too, but I definitely can't achieve this level of precision," OMG said with a laugh.

"That's what's amazing about him. No one can learn this. You could call it talent. North America's G Shen and Grimmmz don't have such exaggerated quick scope skills," Little Lion stated confidently, having fought against all of them!

"Then Xiao Hai is finished," a teammate chuckled maliciously.

Xiao Hai, who could hear them, snorted and said, "I won't lose. I don't believe his sniper is really that strong! My sniping isn't for show either!"

With that, Xiao Hai, now fully healed, picked up his M24. He peeked his head out from the side of his cover and began to pre-aim at Jiang Siming.

But you're using pre-aiming, and he's using a quick scope. Even if your pre-aim reaction is fast, can it be faster than him not scoping?

Quick scopes are unreasonable. No scoping, just pop out, fire, and retreat.

Little Lion had already written Xiao Hai's 'impulse' off. Even Wei Shen couldn't do anything about Jiang Siming's quick scopes; that was proof enough.

As expected, Jiang Siming flashed out again. Just as Xiao Hai was about to fire, he realized his opponent was already a step ahead.

Bang!

The gunshot had barely sounded when the bullet arrived!

Xiao Hai's Level 3 Helmet now had a bullet hole.

Luckily, it was a Level 3 Helmet; otherwise, he would have been eliminated by now.

Retreating back behind cover, Xiao Hai felt a chill run down his spine. He no longer had any intention of dueling Jiang Siming with snipers.

After healing up again, Xiao Hai got smarter. He started throwing smoke grenades frantically towards Jiang Siming.

The smoke grenades completely blocked Jiang Siming's vision. Xiao Hai switched to his assault rifle and charged out from cover towards his opponent.

If I can't beat you with a sniper, surely I won't lose to you with an assault rifle?

Xiao Hai's fighting spirit returned. As the team's second assault player, he had absolute confidence in his close-quarters rifle skills.

Seeing the area around him filled with smoke grenades, Jiang Siming instantly understood his opponent's intention.

"You want to fight me up close? Fine, I'll oblige you."

Jiang Siming's viewers were sweating for him.

"No, Ming Shen, Xiao Hai's close-quarters combat is really strong. Don't go up against him."

"It's over. He definitely can't win in close combat."

"This is a world champion player, a top-tier assault player in the world. Ming Shen is in danger."

"God Ming, don't get into close-quarters combat with him~"

Jiang Siming didn't see the audience's warnings, and even if he had, he wouldn't have listened.

The sound of footsteps had already reached Jiang Siming's ears, signaling that the opponent had gotten close.

But the area was filled with smoke grenades, making it impossible for him to pinpoint Xiao Hai's exact location, only a general direction.

The opponent crept closer and closer, and the two were about to meet.

The audience's hearts were pounding.

Just then, the smoke cleared completely, and both of them saw each other!

Open fire!

Xiao Hai, who had aimed first, precisely locked his M416 onto Jiang Siming. The muzzle flash was like a deadly scythe.

Jiang Siming, on the other hand, seemed stunned, not having fired a single shot yet!

The audience's hearts sank. Even Little Lion thought Xiao Hai had successfully gotten the kill.

"Is this guy's mental fortitude that bad? He forgot to even shoot?" OMG said with a hint of mockery.

If that were truly the case, then their team wouldn't need such a player. After all, being good with a sniper rifle meant nothing if your mental game was weak.

In professional matches, no one would foolishly engage in a direct firefight with a superior sniper. They knew you were accurate, so they'd never expose themselves at a distance, opting for close-quarters combat instead.

Only Little Lion saw the clue. He exclaimed, "No! He's there! He's moving!"

On the screen, Jiang Siming, facing the incoming bullets, suddenly sidestepped and crouched sharply!

Then, he stepped half a body width to the right. This seemingly useless, sleepwalking maneuver...

Actually dodged all of Xiao Hai's bullets!

Xiao Hai, his face pale, frantically tried to re-adjust his aim, but at this moment, several AK shots rang out from the opponent.

Pfft pfft pfft!

Three AK bullets hit Xiao Hai's head. He fell to the ground, a cold corpse.

Xiao Hai stood frozen, staring blankly at the screen.
