Chapter 34 The Geometric Law of Devices
That night.
Tianlu Base Single Dormitory.
Bai Dao took a hot shower and lay sprawled out on the soft Simmons mattress.
The beds in the club were much better than the hard, narrow wooden plank beds in the university dormitories.
Soft and fragrant.
There's always hot water for showering; no water card is needed, and there's no need to queue.
From this moment on, he is no longer an ordinary college student.
He is a true professional player!
However, what excites Bai Dao even more than the change in identity is the unlocking of achievements.
Just as he guessed, if reaching the top spot in Perfect World isn't enough, then he'll go pro!
A true entry into the inner sanctum!
The water mirror rippled.
Among rows of gray and bronze trophies, a trophy gleaming with dazzling silver light stands out from the crowd.
[Achieve the advanced hidden achievement: Enter the Inner Chamber!]
[Achievement Description: S was merely a fish pond king, but today, you have finally crossed the chasm between amateur and professional! Congratulations, host, on officially signing a starting contract with a professional club, truly stepping into the deep sea of esports!]
[Achieve exclusive achievement reward: Pro Player Talent Terminal]
He quickly skimmed over the achievement descriptions and saw the final reward; Bai Dao sat bolt upright in bed.
Another talent terminal?
The white path, however, showed no dissatisfaction.
However, the blind box nature of this terminal device makes it difficult to find a suitable talent for it.
What if all five talents you get are useless? Then you're out of luck.
This means they'll be missing a trump card for the upcoming Copenhagen Major qualifiers.
Especially today, he arrogantly signed a betting agreement with the club at the negotiating table.
If he doesn't make it into the main tournament, he won't get a single penny of salary, so he must seize every opportunity to improve his skills!
He himself is in stable form, but his teammates may not be.
However, he cannot possess his teammates, so he can only make the team's strengths sufficient to help the weaknesses.
He wouldn't have had such high expectations if he hadn't failed to get any red treasure chests during the trial period.
In fact, the top rating he received a couple of days ago was actually a reward from the system for the achievement he had not yet attained.
I've been sparring with professionals for the past two days, and I've been working out and training every day, but I still haven't made a breakthrough.
Therefore, there were no tempting red treasure chests.
Therefore, it's very important what top-tier talent you can get this time.
Otherwise, I'll have to rely on accumulating pink treasure chests again.
The pink treasure chest only increases the probability of getting good items; it doesn't guarantee that you'll get something good.
Talent Terminal is already relatively reliable.
"System, open the terminal!"
Water mirror transformation.
It's the same two screens, left and right, just like last time.
[Current rating index: 200]
Looking at this substantial fortune, Bai Dao nodded in satisfaction.
He buys Muscle Recovery Potion and Baby Energy Potion every day.
It's all in order to maintain an absolutely high level of efficiency.
However, because the daily reviews were quite good, the index basically achieved a balance between income and expenditure, and even had a slight surplus.
Just then, a prompt suddenly appeared in the middle of the water mirror.
[Note: This is a self-selection version for the terminal! Each talent that appears will be temporarily stored in the card slot. After the host has refreshed five times, they can choose any one of the five talents to acquire!]
666!
Bai Dao's eyes lit up.
The usual way is that once you replace the previous terminal, you can never find it again; it's purely based on luck.
If it's just about physical appearance, that's fine.
Unfortunately, it isn't.
The current selectable version, in a sense, does indeed increase the probability of top-tier talents appearing!
I remember last time I only drew three times in total.
I don't know what the last two talents are.
"Whether I want it or not, it won't hurt feelings if I don't, there are plenty of buyers anyway..."
Familiar words appeared one by one.
The first card is flipped over.
[karrigan's bottom-tier sacrifice-style commander]
[Talent Description: When you are the team's commander and your individual kills rank last in the team, an aura effect is triggered: For every time you die, the win rate and breakthrough success rate of your surviving teammates are temporarily increased by 5%]
[Note: "As long as I kill few enough people and die quickly enough, all my teammates will be war gods! Burning myself to light up the big brother!"]
[Exchange Price: 100 Evaluation Index]
"..."
Bai Dao's lips twitched wildly.
When you mention Karrigan, the first thing that comes to mind is his brilliant mind, which comes from his impressive double master's degrees.
Secondly, there's his dismal stats!
In a sense, the eldest cousin and the ninth cousin are positioned in the same way.
However, the probability of the older cousin standing up is still higher than that of the younger cousin.
In addition, his command skills are much better than Lao Jiu's.
Especially the medium-term directives.
It's like having X-ray vision; the calls are extremely accurate.
He can always guide his teammates to complete seemingly impossible endgame situations.
Now, choosing this talent means, in a sense, inheriting his command talent.
But, is it possible for the righteous path to eliminate the bottom-ranked player?
Are you kidding me?!
When he's in his thirties or forties, and like Niko, he becomes a coach, he might still be useful.
But for me now, at twenty years old…
Completely useless!
"Next!"
"No problem, I think the next one will be more to your liking!"
Swish!
[The Geometric Law of Gun Mounting in Devices]
[Talent Description: Tom Cruise's minimalist aesthetic! When you use a sniper rifle to set up a position, your brain will automatically calculate the enemy's most likely peek position and movement speed. Your pre-aiming distance will most likely coincide with the enemy's peeking speed!]
[Note: There are no fancy flick shots; enemies will simply walk right into your gun. Aside from the occasional screen tearing, you're the most stable aiming machine.]
[Exchange Price: 200 Evaluation Index]
"Playing the signature move of the father of Big Brother?"
Bai Dao stroked his chin.
The nickname "Device" has countless variations: Device Bro! Human Limits! Tom Cruise! Liu Nong!
Of course, the most famous one has to be the father of machines!
It makes sense that the son of equipment is a machine.
In the eyes of the white-collar workers, his sniper rifle was conservative compared to s1mple's.
The main focus is stability!
However, based on the latest observations of the competition, Tom Cruise's offensive sniper and defensive sniper are clearly the same person, yet they seem to be different people.
Extremely fragmented.
However, the Chinese media started watching Tom Cruise's games relatively late, so they basically didn't witness Tom Cruise at his peak.
All I remember is that Tom Cruise, a professional gamer, would change his skin in front of his opponent and even inspect his Ruby Bayonet on the street!
However, the white-collar faction isn't particularly fond of sniper rifles.
Although it's satisfying to kill someone with a single shot using a sniper rifle, he prefers to be the first to charge in and give everyone a quick burst of damage.
The sniper rifle has very poor mobility, which often limits its gameplay options.
"Let's keep these as backup options and see what the next three are."
If this gun-holding distance calculation could be applied to other talents, it would undoubtedly be an excellent choice.
In the era of CS2, where rewards are huge, the improvement in aiming ability is an epic boost!
However, the subsequent talents caused Bai Dao's face to twitch slightly.
Especially these two.
[Twistzz's Zero-Gravity Hair Gel]
[Talent Description: Heads may be severed, blood may flow, but hair must never be messed up! No matter how many overtimes the game goes on, no matter how much sweat you shed in the arena, your hairstyle will always maintain perfect volume.]
...
【Da Zhuang blameF's Bait】
[Talent Description: When your teammates are in your line of sight, you will perfectly miss all first-position firefights until they are all dead. For each teammate you sacrifice, your biceps circumference increases by 0.1 mm.]
No!
What kind of hairstyle does a professional gamer need!
Could it bring about a significant improvement in his strength?
As for selling people to increase the thickness of their biceps? That's utter nonsense!
Is this for playing Counter-Strike or for MMA (Mixed Martial Arts)?!
If you dare to use this talent in a competition, you'll definitely get a real-life offline PK from your teammates after the game!
This is not unverifiable in the history of CS.
The white path was completely numb.
"It seems we still have to choose between the first two."
Oh, wait, that's not right.
What's the point of even choosing?!
Does that mean the only option is to choose the device?
Ding dong.
Just as Bai Dao chose the geometric law of mounting a gun using the device, the phone on the bedside table suddenly started vibrating continuously.
I picked up the phone and took a look.
There are many messages on WeChat.
His younger sister, Bai Jiangyue, seemed to have sent him something, but then deleted it.
In addition, there are also Li Feng and Chen Zihao's deadly urging.
"Brother-in-law, did you get the signature or not?! Hurry up and say something, I'm so frustrated!"
Seeing this somewhat nonsensical and anxious inquiry, Bai Dao was initially confused, but then he suddenly remembered something and casually opened Weibo and Douyin.
You wouldn't believe it until you see it; even Bai Dao was stunned.
