Clean and Decisive, 4-0

048. Clean and Decisive, 4–0

Everything was ready.

Jiang Siming suddenly called Wei Shen over and asked quietly, "Whose red Ferrari is parked outside?"

"Gu Cun's. Why?" Wei Shen replied.

Jiang Siming smiled at Gu Cun. "Dare to raise the stakes? Bet the car outside."

"My car cost three million. Can you afford to bet against it?" Gu Cun sneered.

"My RS7 cost about the same, and I only bought it a few days ago. I'll add another five hundred thousand. How about it?" Jiang Siming said.

"Tch, trying to raise the stakes and scare me? Dream on! Lawyer, amend the contract!" Gu Cun called over the lawyer he had brought and had a new contract drawn up.

It included not only the ten million from before, but also both men's luxury cars.

This was all of Gu Cun's property. If he lost, he would be left penniless.

On top of that, with his character setting in ruins, even if he wanted to keep competing and streaming, no audience would support him.

If he lost this solo match, he would have nothing left. Everything would return to zero.

But Gu Cun was not worried, because he had absolute confidence in his sniper skills.

Otherwise, he would never have become one of 4AM's top players in such a short time. With a sniper rifle in his hands, he could kill anyone who stood in his way!

Of course, Jiang Siming was the same. If he lost, all the wealth he had accumulated during this period would go down the drain as well. But he was not worried at all. He could earn it back soon enough.

After the contract was reconfirmed, the wager officially began!

This solo match had already attracted countless viewers.

The number of viewers in Jiang Siming's Live Stream Room broke through eleven million for the first time ever! Its popularity soared to 210 million!

Countless big spenders came rushing in, including an emperor account called Traveling Frog Wa Ge.

That account had only come over in the past two days, after the League of Legends IG team joined Shark. Although it was only below level one hundred, it still attracted a large crowd of onlookers.

That was because the owner of the account was none other than the owner of the IG team!

"A solo match worth over ten million? Interesting. If the streamer wins, I'll send three million in gifts!"

Traveling Frog Wa Ge suddenly posted this message in the Live Stream Room. The audience became even more excited, and no one doubted that he meant what he said.

Jiang Siming did not see it, however. By then, he and Gu Cun had both entered the game and landed at their respective positions.

The two of them had only one Kar98k each, along with a Level 1 helmet. A headshot meant certain death.

Their solo match officially began at that moment!

Gu Cun peeked out first and fired a shot at the rock with an arrogant flourish. The provocation was obvious.

But Jiang Siming did not move. He did not come out.

Gu Cun fired another shot, but Jiang Siming still did not move.

"Coward! If you don't dare shoot, why are you playing solo against me?" Gu Cun was unbearably smug. He was certain that Jiang Siming simply did not dare trade shots with him.

So he peeked out again and fired another provocative shot toward Jiang Siming's position.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Siming suddenly appeared from beside the rock and fired in the blink of an eye before immediately ducking back into cover.

Anyone familiar with Jiang Siming's streams knew that this was Ming Shen's signature technique—a quick-scope shot!

The bullet came screaming toward him. Gu Cun sensed the danger and tried to dodge, but it was already too late. The bullet struck him squarely in the head, instantly shattering his Level 1 helmet, and he crashed to the ground!

That was way too fast!

The audience stared wide-eyed. Jiang Siming's sniper kills were indeed often that fast.

But his opponent was Gu Cun—a famous sniper in the PUBG scene. Before Jiang Siming appeared, he had even been hailed as the country's number-one Sniper God.

Yet even a top-tier sniper like that could not escape a single shot from Jiang Siming.

Gu Cun was a little dazed as well. He had been living it up outside and had never watched Jiang Siming's streams. He only knew that Jiang Siming was pretty good with a sniper and had taken his place on the team. That was all.

But now, it seemed that Jiang Siming was far more than merely "pretty good."

Gu Cun still was not worried, though. He had only been careless just now. He would not make that mistake again.

They started a new game—the second round.

This time, Gu Cun behaved himself. He did not dare come out and provoke Jiang Siming like he had in the previous round. In fact, he only dared crouch behind the rock and wait patiently for an opportunity.

The audience began mocking him. Weren't you so mighty just now? Why were you afraid to show yourself already?

This time, it was Jiang Siming who became arrogant. He fired shot after shot at Gu Cun's rock.

Gu Cun felt as if his face were being slapped again and again.

After firing four shots, Jiang Siming had only one bullet left in his Kar98k.

Gu Cun could not stand it any longer. He poked his head out, intending to finish off his opponent.

But the instant he appeared, he once again used his Level 1 helmet to receive the final bullet in Jiang Siming's chamber.

He was dead again!

Gu Cun's face turned livid. He looked awful.

Only then did he feel the pressure. His opponent's sniping ability seemed to be far above his own. He had not even had a chance to aim down his sights.

"I want to inspect his computer!" Gu Cun stood up and walked toward Jiang Siming.

Jiang Siming took both hands off the mouse and keyboard and leaned back in his chair, completely at ease as he let Gu Cun inspect them.

"If you can't beat him, just surrender. Do you have to make such a fuss?" Wei Shen mocked.

"Some people really can't afford to lose. Go on, see if you can find anything."

"Throwing a tantrum because you're powerless is hilarious. You used to be our teammate, too. I'm embarrassed for you!"

The other 4AM players all stood firmly on Jiang Siming's side.

Gu Cun inspected everything and found no problems before returning to his seat.

By then, his forehead was covered in a fine sheen of sweat, and the pressure on him had increased dramatically.

The third round began immediately.

Bang!

No matter how careful he was, he still could not escape Jiang Siming's deadly bullet.

Jiang Siming had already won three rounds, putting victory within reach. The Live Stream Room erupted in celebration.

The fourth round began.

Gu Cun no longer dared show himself. Even after Jiang Siming fired two full rounds, he still chose to remain a coward behind cover.

"What's the meaning of this? You're just refusing to come out? Is this how you play solo?" Wei Shen said impatiently.

Gu Cun retorted, "Is there a rule saying I have to come out?"

"Damn, you really have no shame!" Wei Shen cursed angrily.

But Gu Cun still refused to come out. He wanted to stall for as long as possible.

"You're not coming out, huh?"

Jiang Siming laughed. He stopped firing to provoke him and simply raised his sniper rifle and ran toward Gu Cun.

If you won't come out, then I'll come over and beat you up myself!

Gu Cun was delighted when he saw Jiang Siming running over. This was exactly what he wanted. Once Jiang Siming could not resist coming closer, Gu Cun could hold a favorable angle and shoot him. He would definitely win!

While Jiang Siming was running, Gu Cun decisively peeked out and fired a shot before immediately ducking back into cover.

But Jiang Siming seemed to know exactly what he was planning. Though he had been running in a straight line, he suddenly turned and easily dodged Gu Cun's shot.

Unwilling to accept that, Gu Cun peeked out again and fired another shot.

But Jiang Siming dodged it again with his movement!

When Jiang Siming reached close range, Gu Cun finally panicked. He aimed and fired, only for Jiang Siming to casually shoulder-fire and blow his head off.

The match was over! 4–0!

Wei Shen and the others shouted excitedly and rushed over to slap Jiang Siming on the shoulder.

"Old Jiang, you're incredible!"

"I'm convinced, I'm convinced! You're insanely strong!"

"From now on, you're my big brother. Little Alert offers you his knees!"

It was not only them. Jiang Siming's Live Stream Room was even more jubilant than the New Year celebrations.

Countless big spenders frantically sent gifts. It was so satisfying!

They had also been thoroughly won over by Jiang Siming's skill. He had crushed professional player Gu Cun, using a sniper rifle to suppress him so completely that he could not even get a word in. This level of strength was damn impressive!
