CS: You are only 16 years old, and you want me to make a comeback?

Chapter 34 Please choose your opponent!

[Hex: Dungeon BOSS: Transformed, 0.1 hour remaining...]

As Jiang Yang waited anxiously, the last bit of time finally passed, and then he noticed that [Hex. Copy BOSS] had disappeared.

The next thing that appeared in his personal inventory was something he had never seen before.

[Hex. Choose Your Opponent]

[Note: In this Hex, you can choose your opponent by yourself. You only need to consume a certain amount of counterattack points as an appearance fee to start a simulated game.

PS: Please adjust the difficulty to suit you! 】

[Do you want to enter Hex and choose your opponent? ]

Jiang Yang wouldn't find it strange no matter what kind of Hextech it becomes.

But he still felt that it was very practical to be able to directly choose his opponent.

After all, Jiang Yang still doesn’t know what level he is at.

The system showed that he was only at professional level 3.

But he was just a mid-level professional, but was blown up like a fish by the opponent Newhappy, which made Jiang Yang himself a little confused.

He actually had an inference in his heart that the professional level of this system might be evaluated based on the age of Jiang Yang when he was 30 years old.

In the game CS, the level of professional players is constantly improving.

It is now 2021. If a very ordinary professional player were put here 10 years ago, he would probably be at the level of dimensionality reduction attack.

It is normal that the CS level 14 years later is much better than it is now.

Considering his professional level 3, it is quite normal for him to defeat Newhappy.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yang instantly became a lot more confident.

And then there's Hex.

If he can really choose some opponents, he can choose the current first-line professionals to conduct simulated games, so that he can know what his level is.

[Do you want to enter Hex and choose your opponent? ]

"Yes!"

Jiang Yang's mind moved, the picture in front of him shattered, and he suddenly found himself sitting in front of a computer.

This time, the surroundings were not covered by fog, but were located on a huge stage.

Everywhere he looked was a crowd of people. In the stadium at night, the cameras in the audience's mobile phones were shining like the starry sky.

Moreover, the shouts and cheers came to his face, and the feeling of competition instantly gave Jiang Yang goose bumps.

But he soon discovered that the cheers from the crowd were quite formulaic and would even stop according to his thoughts.

He soon stopped caring about it and focused his attention on the picture.

The small characters of the system only appeared at this time.

[At the age of 30, you want to get back to the forefront of the world, but your past and present opponents are blocking your way. You must continue to fight hard and seize every opportunity to improve your level. Now please face the fear hidden in your heart. ]

Jiang Yang raised his eyebrows.

The fear hidden in your heart?
Is it the player who beat his future self into retirement?

His competitive spirit was aroused, and he wanted to see which contestant was so strong that he could do this.

Jiang Yang believes that his professional attitude has always been good, and he will not be desperate even if he loses the game.

But it is outrageous that his spiritual heart could be shattered.

At this time, five IDs appeared in front of him.

S1mple（2021）、ZywOo（2023）、donk（2024）、Karrigan（2022）、ropz（2022）

The first two IDs immediately made him feel extremely oppressed.

Today, the world's strongest man, Sen Zai, is the duo of CSGO's greatest talents, both of whom are at a level of discontinuity.

The level of these two guys is considered above human.

One is automatic aiming, the other is perspective.

If it were football, they would be the same as Messi and Ronaldo.

These two IDs are really oppressive.

Then he also knew Karrigan and ropz, one is the current commander of Faze, and the other is the free agent brother of Mouz.

Karrigan has always been known as the world's number one commander, so it's not surprising that he can become his own feared ID.

ropz is one of the best free men in the world, also known as Laoliu.

Free men are disgusting, but they do leave a deep impression on people, so it is still acceptable.

But who is this donk?
Jiang Yang raised his eyebrows. This ID was really unfamiliar to him.

He had thought that NIKO would be there, but in the heart of 30-year-old Jiang Yang, the sense of oppression given by Donk was actually stronger than that of NIKO, which was a bit strange.

Jiang Yang was thinking while considering who to choose.

Then the ID gradually disappeared, and he officially entered into the confrontation.

Jiang Yang quickly pressed the scoreboard and took a look.

I'll take the test! This isn't a multiple-choice question! ... Jiang Yang was stunned for a moment.

He also noticed that in the simulated game, his teammates' IDs were all muted, represented by colors.

However, the system prompts that they have the level of first-line professionals.

Jiang Yang calmed down and slowly carried out the operation.

The simulated map is Nuclear Crisis.

In the system's simulated game, Jiang Yang can give general instructions, such as asking them to fire a wave of explosive bombs A, or a front line in the outside field, or even relatively complex synchronization of several angles, all of which are feasible.

In the pistol round, Jiang Yang directly launched a standard wave of A-zone explosive bombs.

As a result, under the terrifying ID of the opposite side, his teammates died at the speed of light, and Jiang Yang only killed one karrigan and one S1mple before he was killed by the follow-up gun.

Coming all the way to the rifle department, Jiang Yang this time brought a sniper rifle and planned to compete with today's top snipers.

He was in the first position. After arriving at the outfield, he took advantage of his position to jump and take a look at the information outside.

Then the sound of a sniper rifle gunfire was heard.

[ZywOo (2023) used AWP to headshot through the wall and killed young]

Jiang Yang:?
No buddy... When I jumped up, my scalp was exposed. How could I be sniped to death?
How was he beaten to death?

As if sensing Jiang Yang's confusion, the system directly gave him a death perspective.

After the loading countdown ended, I went directly to the blue box next to the outfield warehouse and set up the sniper position.

Then Jiang Yang saw himself in his field of vision.

(The black dot under the red arrow is the information exposed by the protagonist)

He really only exposed a little bit of his scalp, probably less than 1/4 second in the carrier's field of view, and it was only the size of two pixels.

But Zaiwu shot him dead.

"what!!"

Jiang Yang's handsome eyebrows frowned directly. He really found it difficult to understand this shot.

Why!

Extremely strong dynamic vision + extremely strong reaction speed + positioning ability + predicted landing point = the level of a sniper rifle.

Jiang Yang thought that he had quite a good talent, and he had not met anyone in the ladder whose reaction speed was faster than his.

But even if it was him, if he only saw this kind of pixel in his field of vision, he would not shoot.

Because there is little chance of success.

But Zaiwu's shot really taught him a lesson: sometimes, a sniper has to break the stereotype.

Continuing into the next round, Jiang Yang saw that the economy was not very good, so he gave a line of smoke in the outside field, thinking of moving down from K1 and engaging in a firefight with a pistol in the narrow terrain.

Smoke is not a problem, but Jiang Yang didn't expect that when he quietly passed by, the bullet from the M4A1 went straight to him. [Donk (2024) killed Young with a headshot using the M4A1 through smoke]

[donk (2024) killed with a headshot from an M4A1 through smoke...]

Oh my god, is this cigarette fake?

Jiang Yang was very confused.

This can kill him instantly.

This time he really got angry and started to fight on the outside.

Then in one wave, he finally killed donk and Zaiwu with a sniper rifle, and planned to slowly sneak into K1.

The moment he entered K1, he saw a person peek out from the main entrance out of the corner of his eye.

But the good thing is that his vision is near the red box in the outfield.

But the next second.

"--boom!"

[S1mple (2021) used AWP to headshot and kill young through the wall]

Jiang Yang fell directly onto the gaming chair with a relieved smile on his face.

This is totally not something a human can fight!
Is it true that the other side didn't open anything?
Jiang Yang didn't understand at all.

But after calming down for a while, he got back into the simulated game.

There is one good thing about Jiang Yang: he is very strong-willed and stubborn.

So even though his mentality had changed, Jiang Yang was still trying hard to get a score.

But unfortunately, Jiang Yang got the chance many times but failed to win.

He finally understood why this guy Donk was one of his inner demons.

Because donk, the rifleman, is so accurate!

His basic skills are very solid, coupled with unparalleled reaction ability, which means that as long as you don't kill him in one second when you meet him, he can kill you back immediately.

This feeling is helpless.

If Jiang Yang's sniper shot misses, Donk can even kill Jiang Yang directly.

Facing the gun head-on, I feel like I have no chance of defeating it, and it gives me a really strong sense of frustration.

This guy ropz is really disgusting. He always sneaks up behind you and suddenly steals from you.

There were even two waves where Jiang Yang was electrocuted to death by ropz using an electric shock gun, which made him feel sick.

Only the commander Karrigan didn't make Jiang Yang feel there was anything special about him.

It may also be that the opponent's lineup does not need Karrigan's command at all.

After the game, Jiang Yang was a little confused.

He was rarely shut out, and the opponent didn't play any special games with him, just unreasonable shooting.

As long as he makes a few mistakes, the opponent can kill him instantly.

This is very discouraging.

However, that night, he also got a lot of opportunities from this group of top players.

There were many times when the game went into the endgame, and we were often devastated in the endgame and unfortunately lost.

This also allowed Jiang Yang to regain some confidence.

After all, Mori Zai is in the same frame, with Big Cousin and ropz. A team of this level can probably only appear in dreams.

It's basically impossible to meet in reality.

And it’s not that Jiang Yang has no ability to fight back.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yang let out a long sigh.

Only then did he realize that the official interface of [Hex. Choose Your Opponent] appeared in front of him.

Wow, it turns out that the previous level was just a novice level.

Which kind person would use the final boss as a novice level?... Jiang Yang couldn't help but complain in his heart.

In this Hextech, he found that he could perform simulations every day. He could spend counterattack points to add random items, or he could choose to add items on his own.

But the 'appearance fees' required for contestants in different years are different.

"Add the MO of 2018." Jiang Yang added one tentatively.

Then you will see the required counterattack points of 500 displayed on the right.

As expected, 18 was the captain’s peak period. After all, this was just the appearance fee for a simulated game.

He then added the entire 2018 Tianlu team, and the comeback point showed that it had reached 2000 points.

But with this in place, the counterattack points are not enough.

After all, Jiang Yang can only get about 1000 counterattack points a day.

He looked at the appearance fees of those people in the 'Novice Level' just now.

Karrigan is actually quite cheap, only 5000 points.

Ropz also only requires 7000 points.

The remaining three guys with excellent shooting skills all have 10000 points.

This is really expensive.

However, Jiang Yang also understood that only by fighting with real strong people could his level continue to improve.

Today's wave also made Jiang Yang realize the upper limit of CSGO.

Jiang Yang felt that he seemed to have a chance to reach that level.

Moreover, he began to look forward to the next match with these players.

There aren't enough counterattack points...

With this thought in mind, Jiang Yang exited the system space, changed his clothes, and took Ma Xixi out for a run.

……

In the next two days, Jiang Yang's name became more and more famous.

After defeating Newhappy, not only Jiang Yang, but also the members of Steel Helmet became more confident.

This allowed him to win the game easily on the second day.

However, in the confrontation that day, it was DD who was making breakthroughs most of the time, and Jiang Yang hardly saw anyone most of the time, and the game was over.

But after the game, Jiang Yang still got a rating of 1.2.

This rating is actually very good, but it is quite different from the first day.

Many viewers in CSBOY's live broadcast room were making fun of Jiang Yang for being just like everyone else.

Everyone was shouting, "My cousin is old."

However, on the third day, they faced a Mongolian team called Checkmate.

This match was also a BO3 confrontation, and this team put a lot of pressure on Steel Helmet.

It’s not because the opponent has an excellent gunner, but because this Mongolian team has an extremely outstanding commander.

His ID name is BLitz, and players in the Asian circle like to call him Blitz.

This guy really caused a lot of trouble for Steel Helmets, and they were even on the verge of being eliminated at one point, but fortunately, the Steel Helmets were very resilient, and Jiang Yang also stood up at the critical moment.

Finally, they advanced to the Asian RMR in a very thrilling way and got the opportunity to compete with Tianlu and VG.

Jiang Yang, who had been imprisoned in the simulation space for a week, was eager to see what kind of performance he would get as he was about to face the two best teams in the country.
