CS: I became Top 1 by grinding my skill level

Chapter 84 Red Covert-Level Catalyst

Han Tian was speechless. If he had recklessly taken this course, he probably would have ended up like Da Zhuang BlameF.

That kind of lousy old man who goes all out with an ECO attack, betrays his teammates, and sneaks in from behind.

"Get up here!!!"

With a "snap," Han Tian closed the preview panel of [BlameF Master Class], still a little angry.

It's like having a tempting cake covered in cream and honey in front of you, but when you cut into it, you find maggots crawling all over the bottom, making you instantly nauseous.

Since he started playing the libero position and learned Ropz's "Estonian Sunshine Pick" strategy, Han Tian has often been called a "noob".

But Han Tian knew that everything he did was for the team; hiding to set up the backline, and using EC0 to create opportunities for the team...

Han Tian would rather use his pistol to draw fire for the team than be like Da Zhuang BlameF—a player who only focuses on boosting stats and maintaining K/D ratio.

After all, even though Da Zhuang once reached HLTV Top 6 by boosting his stats, very few people thought he deserved the honor.

"Never mind... let's see what the last one is..."

'

After being suddenly disgusted by Da Zhuang's masterclass, Han Tian instantly lost some of his expectations for the so-called "champion prize pool".

He felt that despite the impressive-sounding name of "Champion's Prize Pool," it didn't seem like there was anything truly surprising about it...

Han Tian turned his gaze to the last small box. He had noticed out of the corner of his eye that this last item also seemed to be of purple quality.

Without much expectation, before even seeing the item icon clearly, Han Tian quickly opened the description panel for the third item.

"[【Boch Red Wine Shrimp Oil】, Effect: Effective for one day after consumption. During Anit ECO and friendly ECO rounds, secondary weapon accuracy +10%]"

Three bottles of [Bohe Red Wine Shrimp Oil].

Han Tian was troubled. Actually, compared to the first two completely unnecessary items, taking three bottles of [Bohe Red Wine Shrimp Oil] was a better option.

It is not impossible.

But... I feel like I finally won a final to get the [Champion's Heart] and unlock the Champion's Prize Pool, but the items that drop are all so mediocre.

You can try your luck in the Wishing Well and occasionally win a pink catalyst for an AK47.

"Wait, what's that round arrow icon in the top left corner for? It looks like the refresh button in a game..."

'

Han Tian reached out and tapped the prizes. Since none of them surprised him, he figured he might as well just accept them.

[You have been detected using the "Champion's Heart for C-Tier Tournaments" feature to open the prize pool. You will have three refresh chances, with a guaranteed purple quality item. Each refresh increases the probability of obtaining a rarer item by 10%, up to a maximum after ten refreshes.]

"Three times? Then give it to me!!"

Without hesitation, Han Tian pressed the refresh button.

Two bottles of [Bohe Red Wine Shrimp Oil]... and one bottle of [Bohe Premium Shrimp Oil].

'

"Red wine and shrimp again... Are you guys having a brotherhood reunion? Keep refreshing!!"

"Click"

Han Tian once again broke the record.

"[Broky Master Class]? [Nea Master Class]?"

"I'm a free man, bro, I don't need any of this..."

"

Han Tian sighed. There was only one refresh opportunity left, and the rarity status bar on the left had already reached 20%.

"Let's go up to 30%, one last time! Swipe it!!!"

Just as Han Tian pressed the refresh button for the last time, his helpless expression was instantly enveloped in a red light.

"Red, red... and it's still red quality."

Either they don't give you one good thing, or they give you three at once. Han Tian was completely stunned.

"【Device Master Class】...I really want it, but unfortunately...I'm not a sniper...it's not very useful to me right now."

Han Tian felt a slight pang of pain in his heart and covered his head... After all, that was the so-called human limit—device Tom, a TOP2 level sniper master, the best point-holding sniper, and one of the main creators of Team A's dynasty.

Sighing inwardly at the pity, Han Tian looked at the next one. Anyway, the remaining two were also red quality, so they couldn't be too bad.

"【M4A4—Red Stealth-Grade Catalytic Crystal】"

A square red crystal floats silently in the second slot of the slot machine.

Suddenly, Han Tian's heart skipped a beat.

Although his current M4a4 is only white quality, with no proficiency points, and he doesn't have the prerequisite item—the M4a4 pink catalyst crystal.

However, Han Tian currently has over 10,000 proficiency points and a [General Pink Confidential Catalytic Crystal] obtained from completing the competition mission.

Therefore, as long as Han Tian obtains this red catalyst for the M4a4, he can directly upgrade the gun to red quality.

Although the M4A4 can only be chosen between the M4A1 and the CT equipment slot, in this version where the A1 is more cost-effective, it has gradually become an unpopular weapon except for some gun enthusiasts.

But Han Tian felt that this was his last chance. He took a deep breath and suddenly remembered that this was his last chance.

Therefore, Han Tian did not rush to take the catalyst for the M4A4, but instead slowly looked at the last red item that spawned.

The moment I looked at the last item in my inventory.

Han Tian's gaze was instantly locked onto the red object, and he couldn't look away even for a second.

"This is it!!!"

He seemed to have completely forgotten the temptation of the red M4A4 catalyst, and without hesitation, he reached out and precisely and quickly selected the third red item.

"【AK47—Red Covert-Grade Catalytic Crystal】"

The vibrant, colorful text on the screen leaped into view, igniting a burning passion in Han Tian's eyes.

"They're arranging a one-on-one match between me and Han Tian the day after tomorrow??"

Niko raised an eyebrow slightly upon seeing the notification email from the Electric Snake Cup organizing committee in his inbox.

The email stated that it was the idea from the ElectroSnake brand that prompted the two to replace their mice with a new ElectroSnake peripheral – the ElectroSnake V2pro.

Then, a one-on-one match was held in the shooting room and released as a promotional video for Niko's endorsement of this mouse.

Even after reaching an agreement with Niko, E-Snake officially launched a Niko co-branded E-Snake V2pro mouse.

This collaborative mouse doesn't stick to the traditional black and white color scheme; instead, it's completely redesigned with Niko as the brand name, from the color scheme to the logo.

"Is it because I'm on Faze? Why is this mouse, which collaborated with me, red?"

"But this red color... doesn't match the red of the Faze logo, does it? It looks more like..."

'

Holding this collaborative mouse in his hand, Niko couldn't quite describe the color.

Suddenly he remembered that after he got off the plane, he drove out of Quancheng Airport and passed a place that looked like a restaurant.

The restaurant's GG sign was very distinctive and left a deep impression on Niko, because it featured ripe, red crayfish that looked delicious and tempting.

"Hmm... the color scheme of this mouse looks a bit like a ripe shrimp shell..."

'

Niko felt something was off, so she picked up the mouse and held it under the phone's light, flipping it left and right to examine it.

Why are there lines on the back of the mouse? Combined with this color... it looks like the back of a shrimp...

,

Niko scratched his head in confusion, not quite understanding the aesthetics of the electric snake designer.
