Greatest Streamer System-Chapter 268 - – Goal in First Match

Max and the other's plan for the first game was easy.

"Gamble everything and test their skills."

Nothing complicated and nothing fancy. Max and Atlas, the two fastest people on the team, headed out immediately to find the enemy team's base.

Max headed to the West while Atlas went to the East. He ran through the gray sand dune to find a vantage point. After running for a minute, and the countdown for the first wave showed 1:32, he found the perfect spot and climbed the boulder.

He had a bit of difficulty because the suit had a pair of slippery gloves. The mock P90 he brought to the game was slung over his shoulder.

"Why is he climbing that boulder? Is he going to announce his presence? That orange suit can probably be seen from 3 KM away!"

"He's like a lighthouse ready to be sniped haha!"

Both hosts laughed at his bizarre antics. But those who knew him better didn't think so.

— Nah, I don't believe he will do what I think he will do, right?

— He's going on a hunt… He's hunting those pros

— How arrogant! Did he not know that doing such a thing is pointless? He won't be able to defeat other players easily!

— What's he waiting for? The wave will start soon

Unlike a normal stream and program, Max was unable to hear the hosts' voices or read the chat. He just concentrated while looking at the surroundings. The screen changed to show other teams, but Max stayed still above the boulder without moving a step.

"25 more seconds."

After that mob train strategy with Atlas in the last practice session, Max found an effective way to find his enemy's base. That was by using the first wave as a mark.

When the countdown hit zero…

Rumble rumble!

The rumbling started. Max strained his ears to pick up the sound from the wave. The sound from the East was from his base, so he tried to find one from other areas. And after a while…

"Found it." He looked at the Northwest and broke into a run.

Peter Spencer watched the screen with a gaze full of interest. There were many cameras showing the other team, with the main one now following team MiceMice, holding off against the first wave.

However, he only focused on two little screens that no one noticed yet. It was hidden behind many teams' efforts to clear the first wave as soon as possible.

'They intend to throw away the first match, huh? That's a brazen strategy even for Flexy. To think they will risk it all like that... It's unlike him.' He judged logically as he saw Max and Atlas go toward enemy bases alone, only armed with an SMG and a rifle, respectively.

"Your friends are so courageous, Peter."

The beautiful woman dressed in red beside him giggled amusedly. Rebecca Ludger, Peter's fiancée. They had known each other since junior school and had been together since. Currently, she worked as a game reporter, so she knew one or two things about E-sport competitions.

Through her, he could control the media to help in case someone attacked the Spencer Family or spread bad rumors about him and those he knew.

"Atlas aside, that Breeze is so cute. He's smiling even when he throws himself into danger. So that's the kind of guy Lily is interested in? I wonder what his real personality is. Is he as interesting as what he shows on the screen?"

"He's a good guy."

"I see." Rebecca nodded, "He seems like a good boy."

Their conversation stopped at that, and they focused on the screens.

The first one to arrive at the enemy base while the first wave was still attacking was Atlas. He sneaked behind from the other side and infiltrated the base. The screen showing his effort became bigger, and it immediately became the focus of the stream.

"Ooh! Atlas entered team MOAO's base. They hadn't noticed him yet; not even Mii23 knew his existence!"

"Will we see the first base fall right now? However, isn't Atlas' movement strange? He can enter the warehouse and destroy the core, but he just stops inside for a second before turning around. What's he planning?"

"Could it be? He's trying to go for a team-wipe?"

"Hahaha! That couldn't be, Nature… Oh no!"

Yes, oh no, indeed! Atlas did what the host just mentioned. He prepared his rifle while sneaking out and headshot the first player from team MAOA. Mii23, whose duty was to provide ammos to the team, died without knowing anything. He was downed and gave information to his friends.

"Enemy attack!"

ZAP!

Atlas launched the next headshot to kill Mii23. With this, he wouldn't be able to be saved.

The other responded fast, way faster than normal ranked players. One of them shot at him while the other two held back the wave.

Atlas looked impressed for a second but immediately reacted and hid behind a box. Then, he retaliated and exchanged shots with them.

"Hmm, better than normal players, indeed." He commented as he slid out of his hiding place and ran toward them.

At that time, Max also reached the enemy base. The screen was still focused on Atlas, so no one noticed him besides the audience in the Blue Eden Hall. He didn't try to sneak into the warehouse at all. Instead, he threw three live grenades toward where his enemy stood and climbed using his grappling gun.

Boom boom boom!

"Wha?!"

"I got hit! Enemy attack!"

Not only did the explosion from the grenade take the enemies' attention, but it also provided cover for him to land on the wall.

He immediately launched an attack. SMG's fire speed was the fastest among all guns in Roach Planet. He found the first guy and downed him easily.

"He's here! Shot 30 degrees on my left!"

Max immediately moved while lowering his stance. He used the smoke as the cover to reach the second guy. Before it was too late, he had to kill at least three of them.

Zuzuzuzu!

The energy bullets exploded when they hit the enemy's body. The explosion was small and didn't create loud noise like the one a rifle created. But it still caused a flash that made the other two notice his presence.

"Over there!"

The rest of the enemies noticed him now.

They emptied their bullets as they shot at Max. No hesitation was written in their act. Similarly to them, Max also emptied his remaining bullets. Shots were exchanged, and two people were downed. Unfortunately, one of them was Max, as he couldn't deal enough damage to down the last person.

Still…

"Behind you!"

Lowering his guard, the enemy didn't notice that the roaches had reached the top of the wall. The last enemy was bitten by the roaches and died.

[Team OrangeSquash has annihilated Team M4.]

[500 Annihilation Points have been rewarded.]

'I guess this is it. They are stronger than I thought. Their aim, reaction, and teamwork is different from the guy from the ranked match.' Max thought as he looked at the announcement and the incoming roaches.

And when they gathered around him…

'I leave the rest to you, buddy.'

They bit him to death.

[You Are Dead]

He was transported into a spectating room. In this room, he could do nothing but watch his teammates' condition.

However, his death wasn't in vain. It was all planned.

[Team OrangeSquash has annihilated Team MAOA.]

[500 Annihilation Points have been rewarded.]

Atlas seemed to have finished his goal. Seeing that he was still alive when approaching the enemy with a different energy, Max knew what he should do in the future.

With this, they reached their goal in the first match.
