Chapter 56: Treating the Match as Casual Game
"Xiu'er, stop showing off. I've already lost my knees."
"This is definitely a top-tier move, so impressive!"
"How can Ming God be this strong? Is this something a human can do?"
"Chen Sihou failed to ambush and got counter-killed. Tsk tsk, retribution!"
"My husband is so amazing, sob sob sob, love you~"
...
Although he killed a small streamer from his own platform, Douyu was still very happy. Ming God killed just one streamer, but gained the admiration of the entire platform's audience.
Originally, there were just over 13 million online viewers, but due to Jiang Siming's impressive move, the number quickly rose to over 16 million. A big win!
After eliminating the old camper who blocked the bridge, Jiang Siming also found out the person's ID. He didn't bother searching his loot, and after recovering, he continued driving the motorcycle.
This time, no one dared to block him, and Jiang Siming smoothly rushed out of the bridge. By this time, the first circle had already started, and the map was shrinking, causing streamers who had been camping to meet each other.
Deaths started to occur, and the number of players rapidly decreased.
When the first circle finished, there were still 75 people on the map. Considering the increased kill points due to rule modifications, some players were willing to engage in gunfights and fight for kills.
When the third circle finished, there were still more than 70 people on the map, which was quite surprising. Since no killcam appeared, the official brought up the score rankings.
Apart from the dead players who had 0 points, the lowest score was 30 points, as surviving each circle automatically added 30 points. There were a whopping 45 players with 30 points.
These were people who either avoided encounters or simply wanted to play safe and avoid combat.
The next level was 60 points, earned by those who killed at least one person. The top ten ranks, from sixth to tenth, had 90 points, with a kill count of 2.
The top three ranks had 120 points, with a kill count of 3. Only Jiang Siming had 150 points with a kill count of 4.
The gaps weren't significant, and the players below were catching up quickly.
"The scores of the top ten are very close. Ming God currently holds the first place, followed closely by Weishen in second and A+ in third. I think they will catch up to Ming God soon... Wait, something is happening!" Before Xie Yan could finish, another kill message appeared in the top right corner.
"Player [4am_ming] uses SKS sniper rifle to kill Player [quanmintv_xiaok]."
"Player [4am_ming] uses SKS sniper rifle to kill Player [bilibilitv_huli]."
The camera shifted to Jiang Siming driving his motorcycle past M City, where gunshots were heard. It was Little K and Fox, two streamers engaged in intense combat.
Jiang Siming stopped his motorcycle, ran to a high point, and with two precise shots from the SKS, effortlessly tower-dived the two streamers who had low health and were unprepared.
Everyone marveled at how daring Jiang Siming was. While others would hide upon hearing gunshots, he immediately rushed to a closer building and started a fight!
Now, the score gap with the second and third places widened by a whopping 90 points.
Jiang Siming emerged from the house with a joyful expression, passing by and collecting two more kills. He was exceptionally lucky.
Another golden fragment appeared in one of the loot boxes, and that was the biggest reason for Jiang Siming's happiness.
"Picked up [Qing Dynasty Monochrome Glazed Teapot] fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity full, can be used directly."
Was there also an antique drop?
Jiang Siming was delighted, thinking that with luxury cars and mansions, it wasn't surprising for antiques to appear.
Choosing not to use it for now, Jiang Siming looted the equipment from both players' bags. There wasn't anything valuable – just sniper rifles and rifles. He picked up the grenades and continued his journey.
Unlike others who found a stable spot for development, Jiang Siming's playstyle, as seen by the commentators, was extremely unrestrained and unheard of in competitions.
Driving a motorcycle recklessly on the island map, he didn't even stop at the central locations and roamed like a headless fly.
"I figured it out. Ming God seems to be searching for players instead of playing randomly!" Xie Yan noticed a clue.
"Indeed, he's been circling around the circle's edge, refusing to occupy any high points. This playstyle... is really too aggressive." Little Tong marveled.
Qian Yi, with a hint of pride, said, "This is why Ming God is so popular. His livestream is full of violent aesthetics – he just fights whenever he sees someone."
Isn't that right? Jiang Siming rode his motorcycle to the edge of the circle and found someone setting up in the house area. He immediately drove his motorcycle into the opponent's housing area.
Miss, who was searching for items in the room, was scared and shivering. She quickly positioned herself at the stairs, aiming the gun at the front.
However, the opponent never showed up. Three consecutive grenades were thrown in from outside the window, and Miss, with nowhere to hide, was blown up on the spot.
"Ming God, the flower destroyer, killed Miss with a grenade. Miss's gaming experience must be terrible right now." Little Tong expressed sympathy.
But immediately, Qian Yi spoke up for Jiang Siming, "Ming God doesn't know that it's Miss inside. Official matches don't care about that."
Little Tong sighed and said, "Qian Yi, you've completely 'betrayed'."
Qian Yi's mood was unknown, but all Little Tong knew was that many male viewers must be feeling very sad right now.
After killing Miss with a grenade, Jiang Siming didn't see any fragments. He didn't even bother going inside; he just rode his motorcycle away, continuing to search for the next prey.
Unconsciously, the camera almost locked onto Jiang Siming in the competition.
There was no choice; other areas had little combat, and Jiang Siming played so violently and bloodily. The cameraman could guess who the audience wanted to see.
"The cameraman is smart, should have done this earlier."
"Ming God's camera – missing it might mean missing a highlight kill. It should have been locked directly on him."
"Did the cameraman get paid? Only focusing on one person?"
"The one upstairs must be silly. Have you seen other streamers play this aggressively?"
"Just watch my husband; other streamers are too timid."
"Bloody Index: Exploding Star! Ming God's livestream really makes your blood boil."
