Chapter 265 Turning Point
While listening to his roommates' playful banter, Cui Yinglin casually started scrolling through Douyin (TikTok) during the Delta Force loading window.
As soon as I entered, I was struck by Jiang Feng's thunderous aura. The first video was a promotional video for Jiang Feng made by a female fan.
I don't know where they got the footage from, but they edited together all of Jiang Feng's outdoor appearances and captioned it: "If you've fallen in love with Jiang Feng, you really have great taste."
Cui Yinglin frowned. How come the e-sports circle is starting to play the fan circle game too?
These past few days, Jiang Feng has practically taken over Douyin (TikTok). He's scrolled through several videos, all of them containing related clips and news.
To be honest, it's a bit annoying.
Long press the screen and select "Not interested".
Right now, all he wants to do is watch some videos of beautiful women and relax his tense nerves before the big battle begins.
With a swipe of my finger, the next video popped up.
The official account of Operation Delta Force.
A major announcement that has just been released:
"During this 'Clean Up' special operation from December 31, 2024 to January 2, 2025, our security team banned 1283678 cheating accounts. Among them, 89196 accounts were intercepted, frozen, or subsequently banned for DMA cheating, and 418201 devices were banned by machine code. All cheating accounts were subject to a ten-year ban and permanent blacklisting in the game."
"We have also completed the procedures for addressing violations such as riding in trailers and maliciously forming teams..."
"In addition, congratulations to the 9 new players who have earned the 'Brilliant Prodigy' title. The current total number of completed 'Brilliant Prodigy' challenges across all servers is 11. We will distribute unique challenge numbers to each player according to the order of completion."
"The 'Colorful Prodigy' challenge in the all-out battle are now open. All players are welcome to participate."
「S3赛季前瞻直播将在1月10号19:00正式开启。」
Cui Yinglin was immediately shocked and immediately moved his phone towards his roommate:
"Wow, Liu Xinfei and Wang Kai, no wonder I haven't encountered any cheaters these past few days. Delta has banned 128 million accounts?"
"My god, how many games don't even have a million daily active users?"
Several people immediately gathered around, stared at the announcement, and couldn't help but gasp in astonishment and agree:
"I knew Yifeng, the planner, would get things done; this time he's serious!"
"Good riddance! Delta players have suffered from cheaters for too long!"
"What are you waiting for! This is the best of times for the Delta! Charge! I'm going to make at least 1000 million today!"
As Liu Xinfei spoke, he picked up a photo from the corner of the table, placed it respectfully in the center of the monitor, and bowed three times in reverence.
"God of Aggression, bless me with a hot hand today, an exceptional performance, headshots every time!"
"I don't need much! Just one-tenth the level of Fengshen is enough! That'll be enough for me to dominate the aerospace world!"
Cui Yinglin turned his head and saw that the photo was a color photo of Jiang Feng that Liu Xinfei had printed out himself.
Is the river wind really that strong?
"Didn't you see the video too? You tell me if it's good or not."
"He's strong, but I feel like other streamers could do the same things he does."
"The data speaks for itself! He took down 5 top-tier prodigies in one night, out of only 11 in the entire server, and he alone accounted for 6 of them. Who can do that? An average KD of 100 per game, who can do that?"
In order to defend her idol, Liu Xinfei's words became a bit harsher:
"To be honest, Lao Cui, you're still too bad at the game. You haven't played enough FPS games. You've only played Honor of Kings before, so your basic skills are not up to par. You can't even pass the test when playing a position 3 player with a gun."
"I just have one question for you: what do you think of the AUG gun?"
Cui Yinglin subconsciously said, "Great! It's cheap and reliable. Yesterday, when I was playing as the female doctor and providing cover fire, I even killed two people with it!"
Liu Xinfei smiled upon hearing this and shrugged:
"AUG is strong? Look at our group, which of us is still aggressively attacking streamers who play AUG?"
Cui Yinglin frowned slightly.
"As Fengshen said, 'The first time Delta Force was "awakened," it felt that the AUG was invincible; the second time it was "awakened," it felt that the AUG was just so-so.'"
"If you're a novice at playing Fengshen, it's like a frog in a well seeing the moon in the sky; if you understand it, it's like a mayfly seeing the blue sky!"
"Take your time to figure it out, brother."
Wang Kai quickly tried to smooth things over:
"Alright, alright, stop joking around. Log in now and play a few rounds today so you don't miss your studies tomorrow."
Cui Yinglin frowned, didn't refute anymore, and lowered his head to continue watching videos.
The next video that popped up made Cui Yinglin's eyes widen in surprise.
It's a video of Delta Force, but it's not from the first-person perspective of the attackers; instead, it's a compilation of the victims.
Different characters, different players, different equipment, different places, but they all end up with the same fate—being repeatedly killed instantly.
Various unexpected methods, with lightning-fast, instant kills.
Some were shot in the head and fell to the ground as soon as they showed their faces.
Some were only caught by a glimpse of the hem of clothing, missed a shot, and were instantly killed in the next second.
Some players would fire first and sneak up behind the enemy, only to be instantly killed by a 180-degree shot in a single frame, or even their teammates would be instantly killed.
Some even had three people press forward together, only to be dismantled and eliminated in seconds.
Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!
Cui Yinglin was instantly immersed in the situation, feeling powerless and cold all over.
He looked up at the video script, which read: "Didn't they say Delta Force wasn't down? Help me figure out what's going on here."
Cui Yinglin blurted out almost subconsciously:
"This is fucking cheat code!"
"Thank goodness the cheat was banned, otherwise how would we play!"
Wang Kai, who was standing next to Cui Yinglin, listened to Cui's shouting, glanced at his phone, and frowned.
"Something doesn't seem right."
"Wait, step forward 10 seconds."
Cui Yinglin was stunned for a moment, then quickly rewound the video by 10 seconds.
The scene clearly shows the perspective of a female doctor. Originally, three people were charging at a red wolf, but in an instant, two of the escorts were knocked down, and the female doctor was killed by the charging red wolf with a knife after she missed her shot at close range.
"This cheat is too arrogant!" Cui Yinglin gritted his teeth, completely empathizing with the female doctor's sense of powerlessness.
That close-range miss just now was exactly the kind of mistake he would make in a regular game.
Wang Kai frowned: "Something's not right, how come..."
The video is filled with comments, and it already has 10 likes and 12234 comments.
[This isn't a cheat code; I filmed an episode with Peach Cat.]
[Scared the child to tears]
[@Delta Force, please take action! The use of cheats should be dealt with seriously!]
Anti-cheat measures are still ineffective; this cheater is still streaming!
[Directions to the cheater's live stream → @Jiangfeng]
When Wang Kai saw the words "Jiang Feng," he suddenly slapped his thigh:
"What the hell! Look at the creator, Zhengfeng Esports Club!"
"This is the first-person perspective of the Wind God's opponent!"
"Huh?" Cui Yinglin froze on the spot, completely dumbfounded.
"Look at this scene! Isn't this the famous moment when the Wind God Red Wolf single-handedly defeated three opponents on the blue ramp of the Blue Chamber? This first-person perspective is definitely for the encore!"
"What the hell? So this is a promotional video that the club made for its own chairman?"
"But seriously... this victim's perspective is really creepy, the oppressive feeling is too strong. I can't watch anymore, it'll ruin my mood. I need to log in!"
Cui Yinglin suddenly realized what was happening.
At this moment, he seemed to have a vague feeling about what Liu Xinfei had said before.
The three of them didn't say anything more and went straight into the game, starting their attack on aerospace.
They launched a fierce attack for three consecutive rounds, but only managed to retreat in one round.
Overall, the gaming experience was pretty good. Considering that I had to support a newbie like Cui Yinglin, this result is already quite impressive.
The fourth game was just coming to an end, and they were facing off against the last team in the final decision battle; whoever won would clear the map.
Wang Kai ate some AW first, then went to sleep, leaving him to nervously watch Cui Yinglin's perspective.
Cui Yinglin's various manipulative tactics made Wang Kai feel extremely uncomfortable, and he was just about to get up and use his physical attack to switch characters.
A ban notification suddenly popped up on Cui Yinglin's computer screen.
[Dear Operator, your game environment and behavior data have been abnormal. To protect your character data security, your account has been frozen. Please check for anomalies or network issues, and do not use third-party plugins or applications while playing the game. Your account will be unfrozen on 2035-1-2 21:23:45.]
"what?"
Cui Yinglin and Wang Kai froze at the same time, exclaiming in unison.
"Sealed off? For ten years?"
The next second, Liu Xinfei's exclamation echoed throughout the dormitory:
"Holy crap, I'm so laggy! Holy crap, I got a blue screen!"
