"How can you slander me out of thin air?! This was part of the tactical arrangement. Besides, how was I not useful? Didn't I still manage to wipe out three teams in a row?"
That was the spot that Brother Li arranged for you. Without him, where would you have gotten your hands on him?
【That's it! 】
"Nonsense! This is a division of labor. Even within the same team, there must be different roles. How can someone in the same team be considered to be lying down?!"
After saying all that, Bai Zhe said some incomprehensible things, such as 'tactical arrangements' and 'division of labor and cooperation,' and that he could report information even while lying down.
This caused the viewers in the live stream to burst into laughter, filling the room with a joyful atmosphere.
Ta-da!
Just then, Bai Zhe's phone rang again, and he answered it while tidying up the warehouse.
"Wow~~~ Sir! You finally answered my call~~~"
"Hey, hey, hey~ What are you crying for! You're not acting like a soldier! Stop crying!"
"Hiccup!"
Xiao Xiaoyan's mouth snapped shut instantly, and perhaps because he closed it too quickly, he let out a burp.
~~~~~~
"Brother Lipu's gun skills are truly impressive, and his thinking is also top-notch."
In Shulin's live stream, Shulin recalled Li Pu's actions and had already acknowledged his skill.
Although he could fire those shots that Li Pu had just used, he couldn't guarantee a 100% success rate. Judging from Shu Lin's observation of Li Pu, those maneuvers seemed to be commonplace for Li Pu.
Even after the fight, his voice remained completely calm, as if his heartbeat hadn't quickened much.
That's only one point. The second point is that Li Pu's tactical arrangements were very reasonable and correct.
Shulin's live stream often features solo clearing maps, but when actually playing in-game, he mostly just knows how to play and when is the best time to play. If you ask him to explain his strategy, he might not be able to articulate it clearly.
He listened carefully to Li Pu's suggestions and ideas in the game. Reasonable arrangements would not cause his teammates to object immediately, and he verified Li Pu's tactical ideas one by one.
When they reached B3 and faced the last two teams, Shulin had completely abandoned his own tactics and was now following Li Pu's strategy.
Li Pu had already arranged how to fight, when to fight, and what stance to use. All he had to do was follow Li Pu's instructions, which made him feel very comfortable.
It feels like I've abandoned my brain.
[Someone with real talent can make the forest nod in agreement.]
[Shulin, you should learn from him. In Lipu Ge's live stream clips, there's always a thought process and analysis before the fights.]
[Yes, yes, I've learned a lot of in-game strategies from that guy, and my win rate has improved a lot recently.]
"Hey~ Let's watch some of Li Pu Ge's videos after the game later, and everyone can learn from him."
Shulin didn't pay attention to the fans' comments. He was aware of the gap between the two of them, a fact he couldn't deny.
~~~~~~
The three-hour match quickly came to an end. In the last round, Li Pu was headshot by an AW, and his two teammates were also sent back to the Special Operations Department, ending today's matches.
In those three hours, Li Pu played eight rounds, successfully retreating in six of them and failing to retreat in two.
All six withdrawals were by wealthy players, which increased his assets from 51.7 million yesterday to 88 million. Money was secondary; Li Pu's main objective was AW bullets. He obtained 35 bullets from four second-round airdrops today.
Originally, there were 40 rounds. He took 5 rounds from the battle in the forest and fired 9 more. At this point, Li Pu had 26 AW bullets left in his warehouse.
After today's match ends, Li Pu will receive 500 million in mid-match support funds.
Not only that, Li Pu killed quite a few people today, a total of 29 people in 8 games, averaging 3 or 4 kills per game. These 29 kills also earned him a reward of 8.7 million HAF coins.
Li Pu ranked second on the kill leaderboard with 47 kills.
The first place is held by someone named yolo, who is ahead of Li Pu with 50 kills.
With these additions, Li Pu's assets rose to 101.7 million, a total of 101.7 million, nearly 20 million more than the second-place winner, a clear lead that can be described as overwhelming.
At this point, the person in second place had become Shulin, and with the addition of those rewards, Shulin's assets had reached 8500 million.
Aside from Li Pu and Shu Lin, there is only one other well-known streamer in the top ten.
Old Flying Feather has risen to fifth place with 7600 million.
Li Pu glanced at Yang Ge's ranking. Yesterday, he was only in the middle, ranked 150th, but today he has risen to 50th, with assets of 59 million.
"Huh? Brother Yang is really going strong today?"
Li Pu raised an eyebrow, and soon a fan told him the truth.
Yang Ge has gotten addicted to calling everyone "Dad," wouldn't it be a shame not to give him more food?!
A top streamer with two million followers chased after a smaller streamer with only a few hundred thousand followers, calling him "daddy," almost scaring the smaller streamer to death.
[Hahahaha~ Delta calls itself Father, and it truly lives up to its name!]
Seeing this, Li Pu couldn't hold back any longer and opened Yang Ge's live stream. Yang Ge was singing passionately and was obviously very happy.
Li Pu sent a 100 RMB rocket (a virtual gift), and Yang Qijia noticed that Li Pu had entered the live stream room.
"Dad~~~ Oh no, I've gotten used to calling you 'Dad' all the time, Absurd Bro~~~~ You're here~!"
Yang Qijia greeted Li Pu with a smile and continued singing. After they finished singing, the two interacted for a while. Li Pu saw that Yang Ge was so engrossed in calling him "Dad" that he soon went to play with his yo-yo. He was afraid that Yang Ge would call him "Dad" a couple more times.
After saying goodbye to the audience, Li Pu ended the broadcast and started watching videos on the platform. The new season was about to start, and there were already some leaks about the new season on the platform.
The official theme for the new season was also released today.
Breaking the wall
Li Pu walked out of the study while scrolling through videos. In the living room, his senior, Su Xiaoxiao, and Zhao Mingli were already eating.
The group had ordered ten pounds of crayfish and were showing them off enthusiastically.
"Wow~~~ You guys didn't even wait for me, that's so unfair!"
Li Pu's mouth watered involuntarily when he saw the crayfish. They were really delicious, but there wasn't much meat; you could only suck out the flavor.
"Li Pu, come quick!"
The senior student greeted Li Pu with a smile and handed him an ice-cold beer.
When Li Pu sat down next to his senior, she proudly presented a large bowl of peeled crayfish meat from under the coffee table, with broth drizzled on top. It looked incredibly delicious.
Sitting to the side, Zhao Mingli looked at the bowl of peeled crayfish with some envy. After peeling the crayfish in his hand, he stuffed it into Su Xiaoxiao's mouth and then pitifully sucked his fingers a couple of times.
Li Pu noticed Zhao Mingli's gaze, raised an eyebrow at Zhao Mingli, and gave him a provocative smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, senior. Come on, let's eat together."
Li Pu gently patted his senior's head, and soon began to enjoy a beer and a crayfish.
Chapter 159 New Season?
"A new operator? This one's so powerful?"
A few days later, more and more revelations appeared online, and a female operator with red hair and a 3D Maneuver Gear around her waist, resembling the one in the anime Attack on Titan, was quickly revealed.
At the same time, leaks about the new map were also revealed.
[Tidal Prison] [Dam in the Night]
This leak not only reveals new operators and maps, but also new physical interactions, such as swimming.
Swimming has become an essential skill in Tidal Prison, and some leaked information has already shown footage of operators swimming and using their skills in the water.
Li Pu raised an eyebrow, showing some interest.
"This new operator's role is too similar to Dragon's, isn't it? One of her two basic skills can provide control, isn't that just a replacement for Dragon's Tiger Crouch? Now that it's become a basic skill, her roll is similar to Dragon's jet attack, and her ultimate can pull herself back directly. Is Dragon now just a shrew?"
"With two operators with such similar roles, won't we have to nerf Dragon again to make way for the new operator?"
Looking at the comments below the video, Li Pu noticed that some players were already calling the new operator Zhang Jie. At first, Li Pu didn't understand what the joke was, but after searching it up a bit, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
The official response to the player's question was lightning fast. The appearance of the character dying in peacetime is completely different, which really proves the saying that lies don't hurt people, but the truth does.
(The new season is set to break through the wall, so I won't write about the Son of the Night. The Night Dam is not fun except for being more gloomy than the normal dam. The Night Dam will be launched in S5 at the same time as mentioned in the article. As for the missions, the Sima missions from S4 will be crammed into S5, taking back the previous 'aftermath'.)
"What are you looking at so intently?"
The senior student brought out a glass of milk, two grilled sausages, and a fried egg from the kitchen and placed them in front of Li Pu.
"Looking at the new season's leaks, it seems like there's a lot of new stuff coming out."
The senior student raised her eyebrows, not really interested. In the game, she mostly played around with knives in Bakshi, occasionally going to the dam for a few rounds. She hadn't been to the space base since, except for a few times when doing departmental missions.
"The office supplies I ordered will be delivered soon. Do you want to come with me to take a look?"
Li Pu was taken aback by what his senior was saying.
"Our studio isn't even finished being renovated yet, so why are we in such a hurry to bring it in? Where are we going to put it?"
Besides live streaming these past two days, Li Pu has been focusing on recruiting staff and hasn't noticed that his senior has already arranged desks and other necessities for the event.
"Your counselor has made arrangements. We'll use the empty space next to our studio to store things for now. Once the renovation is complete, we can just move them in."
The senior student smiled slightly: "I haven't let the more expensive ones in yet. They can come in after the renovation is finished. What about your side? The recruitment of staff?"
They each had their own tasks and trusted each other to do them.
“A few days ago, my counselor gave me a list of some students from freshman to senior year who were facing difficulties. There were quite a few, nearly a hundred. I created a group chat to explain my intentions. Some people have already expressed interest, while others are still observing.”
"Customer service is relatively simple, and the salary is not less than that of part-time work. We have already hired 8 temporary customer service staff. The original plan was to hire 4 full-time customer service staff, but we have already hired 3. The studio will open next month, so it's okay to keep them on for another month."
Hearing this, the senior student smiled and tapped Li Pu: "Such a good thing? Does that mean you don't have to do anything for the next month?"
“There’s definitely something to do.” Li Pu shook his head. “The counselor’s list doesn’t know how many people will be coming. I’ve already arranged for them to recruit people in Delta chat groups on various software platforms.”
Another point is that there are quite a few people at our school, and quite a few of them play Delta Force. I've already sent messages in several Delta Force groups at our school, so if anyone wants to earn some extra money, we'll need to connect them.
Li Pu had already divided the club's thugs into different groups: the first group consisted of students from relatively poor families who needed help; the second group consisted of students from normal families who wanted to earn some extra money through part-time jobs; and the third group consisted of thugs from outside the community.
The first two were from the school, so they knew each other well. Li Pu didn't plan to take a cut from the first one, considering it a form of assistance. For the second one, he offered a more favorable cut, at least to avoid making dirty money.
As for the thugs in society, they can just take a cut at the market price; they're not doing charity.
However, Li Pu is still considering how to restrain these thugs in society.
Students in school know each other inside and out, so they can't run away even if they want to, but the people in society are a mixed bag.
With his established reputation, Li Pu naturally wanted to create a completely legitimate club. Delta Force, as an FPS game cheat, could never be completely eradicated, which presented him with a dilemma.
He quickly remembered the official requirements of this tournament: all participants had to use their phones or cameras to record their computer screens, faces, and mouse and keyboard inputs.
That's a good idea.
After thinking it over, Li Pu finally came up with a ranking system.
From now on, any thugs who want to join the club will be divided into two tiers.
The first tier requires providing a live webcam feed with screen recording via keyboard and mouse, while the next tier provides a live webcam feed.
The first tier offers a 7% discount on the market price plus a commission, while the second tier offers a 8.5% discount.
With this premise, the boss can see the thugs' performance in real time through the live stream, which puts the boss at ease and eliminates any concerns about the risk of getting into trouble. Li Pu can also feel at ease.
Li Pu could only apologize for not being able to meet these two conditions. With his established reputation, he had no trouble getting orders. The key point is that live streaming is not a difficult thing to do in today's society.
Buying a webcam to stream live from a computer might require considering the computer equipment, but using a mobile phone is incredibly simple – just buy a phone stand and plug in a charger.
If Li Pu really offered the discounts, he could earn back the money he spent on cameras or tripods in just a few orders.
If these two points cannot be met, Li Pu is not prepared to accept the job; there is no room for negotiation.
It may seem cold and inhumane, but it is actually a good way to prevent certain problems from occurring.
After making his decisions, Li Pu quickly wrote them down. He planned to post a job advertisement in the live stream to see how it went.
"Let's go to school together."
After finishing their meal, Li Pu and his senior went to school.
Chapter 160 Escort Assessment
That afternoon, Li Pu posted a video on his phonetic symbol and D station account recruiting War God and running knife players.
The name "[Outrageous Esports Club]" also became familiar to fans and passersby on this day.
