Bed Wars; Chen Ze's Sneak Attack
While the two were chatting, the game filled up, and the countdown to the start began.
The game began, and Chen Ze appeared with his two teammates inside a small house.
The house was small, with a bed in the middle, an NPC in one corner, and a gold nugget spawn point in another.
Each team had a small house where they could collect gold nuggets and exchange them for items from the NPC.
Besides the sky islands belonging to the five colored teams, there was a huge sky island in the middle, where diamonds and emeralds spawned.
The more valuable the gems, the more valuable, deadly, and useful the items they could be exchanged for at the NPC.
Chen Ze picked up a few gold nuggets and went to the NPC to open the exchange menu. There were dozens of items available.
Among them, a set of iron armor cost a stack of gold nuggets, while Ender Pearls came in stacks of five. Wool and blocks for building were also available, all at different prices.
Chen Ze thought for a moment and decided to exchange for some wool to protect the bed first.
He had read the game instructions, and if their bed was destroyed, their red team would be unable to respawn after dying.
So the bed was the most important thing, and they needed to protect it at all times.
Someone on his team typed in the team chat.
[Brother Ze, I'm a level-eight fan of yours. Can you carry me to a win?]
[Damn, I got matched with God Ze! You're going to carry us to a win, right?]
Chen Ze was a top short-video game streamer, but he was really more of an entertainment streamer, so his gaming skills were average.
When he saw that a fan was on his team, he smiled and typed.
[Guys, let's do our best together.]
[First, let's protect the bed. One person can guard it while the other comes with me to destroy their beds.]
He had a rough plan in mind. First of all, destroying beds was a must.
If they didn't destroy the beds, the other teams could respawn endlessly. Only by destroying their beds could they truly eliminate them.
He looked at his teammates' names and avatars, then prepared to assign tactics based on what he inferred.
The one with an Iced Black Tea Laoda skin, named Guang Shiguang man Xieba, looked skilled at a glance and could go on the offensive with him.
The other had a 2D anime skin and was called Mai Senpai. They looked about average, so it would be enough for them to guard the bed at home.
With that in mind, he typed out his assignments.
[How about this? Shiguang, come attack with me, and Senpai, you guard the bed at home?]
The two saw the team message and typed their replies.
[No problem, God Ze.]
[Got it ×2]
After quickly putting a layer around the bed, Chen Ze thought of something.
If they surrounded the bed with the same kind of block, their opponents would only need one tool to dig through it. If he used stone and wooden planks together, they would surely dig much more slowly.
With that thought, Chen Ze quickly added another layer of wooden planks and stone around the wool.
Looking at the enclosed bed, Chen Ze turned toward the huge ring-shaped island in the middle.
It was time to get some high-level resources.
With that, he looked at Laoda and typed: [Laoda, come with me to the central island for supplies. We need to stick together.]
[Okay, God Ze.]
Laoda readily agreed, and the two took some blocks and began building a bridge to the central island.
While they were building, the people on the other four sky islands had also started building bridges toward the island.
Just then, Chen Ze suddenly noticed how many people were on the neighboring orange team.
Three.
All three were going to the central island? Weren't they afraid someone would sneak into their base?
He looked at their sky island. The bed was clearly only surrounded by a simple layer of wool.
Seeing that, Chen Ze immediately chose to run back, typing in the team chat as he went.
[Laoda, go grab supplies on the central island first. I'm going to sneak into the orange team's base next door.]
After seeing what Chen Ze typed in the team chat, Laoda also caught on and silently continued placing blocks.
Soon, he reached the central island and looked for the diamond and emerald spawn points.
Meanwhile, Chen Ze returned to their red team's island and began building a bridge toward the orange team not far away, glancing toward the central island from time to time as he built.
Seeing that the three orange team members had just reached the central island, Chen Ze felt relieved.
Even so, he kept silently repeating something to himself.
[You can't see me, you can't see me.]
When he used wool to reach the orange team's base, it was just as he had expected: nobody was home. All three had gone to the central island.
"Hahaha."
"Guys, watch me take out the orange team's base first, then we'll talk about the rest."
The livestream chat came alive when viewers saw Chen Ze land on the orange team's island.
[What kind of god-tier team is this? They didn't even leave anyone to guard the base.]
[They're screwed. Going out and coming back to find their base raided is no different from coming home from a business trip and hearing their wife's pregnant.]
[How did you know my wife was pregnant?]
[6]
By now, Chen Ze had reached the house in the middle and spotted the orange team's bed sitting inside.
Wait, they didn't even protect the bed? That's ridiculous, isn't it?
He thought that perhaps everyone on this team was a beginner and probably hadn't figured out how to play.
Then again, who else was as smart as he was?
As he thought this, he reached out and destroyed the orange team's bed.
A rumbling sound came from the sky, and a message appeared in the chat channel at the bottom left of every player's screen.
[The orange team's bed has been destroyed. They will be unable to respawn after death.]
At that moment, the orange team stood rooted to the spot on the central island, utterly confused. How had their bed disappeared while they were out?
Just as the other teams finished processing the message, some people on the central island noticed the players with orange names above their heads.
The orange team's bed had been destroyed. Didn't that mean they could eliminate the orange team outright?
The same thought occurred to everyone on the central island at once, and in an instant, two teams began attacking the orange team members.
The green and black teams surrounded the orange team. Sweat poured off the three orange players as they typed frantically in the team chat.
"Wait, how did our bed disappear?"
"How should I know? Some dog actually snuck into our base!"
"Damn it, what do we do now?"
"What do we do? Run! Disaster's here, so save yourselves."
As soon as the player named [Grandpa Niu Has No Cows] finished typing the last word, he threw an Ender Pearl.
Luckily, he had exchanged for one at the shop beforehand, just in case someone attacked him.
The other two players' eyes widened when they saw their teammate disappear before them.
Damn! Bro, you had something that good and didn't share?
Before they could type out their complaints, someone came up and attacked them.
Facing a siege by four people, the two clearly had no room to survive and were beaten to death.
The two became souls floating in the air. Of course, no one else could see them, and they could only watch from their teammate [Grandpa Niu Has No Cows]'s perspective.
