E-Sports Boss Wants To Post Messages With New Players Every Day Chapter 14

After all, they were still in the middle of a battle. Xu Ziyan was only momentarily distracted before he climbed up and continued toward the main battlefield at the church, using the obstacles for cover.

Knowing that Xie Wei was protecting him, his courage grew significantly. He provided a constant stream of healing and armor, supporting the Assault Player at the front, and occasionally using his healing gun to deal a bit of damage. With this support, Xu Ziyan’s team quickly captured the objective and the percentage countdown began.

Meanwhile, the opposing Sniper and Medic were struggling against Xie Wei’s precise marksmanship. They were terrified wherever they went, and their support was relatively slow. The Sniper, in particular, had initially tried to duel Xie Wei, but after realizing Xie Wei’s bullets were always faster, he immediately gave up and began calling for support from his team’s Assault Player.

The Assault Player had just been dealing with a tough opponent while trying to take out the Medic, and now being called to hunt Xie Wei left him feeling quite miserable.

However, unlike hunting a Medic, hunting a Sniper only required closing the distance, which gave the Assault Player an infinite advantage. Sniper rifles were heavy, meaning Snipers could not be as agile as Medics.

The sea breeze whipped around the clock tower, the highest point in all of Ireland City. Xie Wei pulled the bolt, a shell casing clinking as it hit the floor, and a new bullet was chambered.

Using his high-magnification scope, he quickly scanned the map and unexpectedly found that the enemy Sniper had quietly slipped away.

Was he preparing to give up?

No.

It looked more like a temporary retreat.

Xie Wei had a high sense of danger. He immediately put away his sniper rifle and drew his sidearm.

The Assault Player who had climbed the stairs hadn’t expected Xie Wei to notice something was wrong, even though he had masked his footsteps. But this close distance was nearly enough. He drew his assault rifle, preparing for a head-on confrontation, but the moment he saw Xie Wei, before he could fire, a smoke grenade silently rolled to his feet.

This time, not only the Assault Player but even Xie Wei was stunned.

However, he quickly recovered, raised his pistol, and aimed at the vague silhouette in the smoke.

At this rank, everyone knew how to play. The Assault Player also reacted, firing back.

The pistol’s damage was not high, and compared to the close-range assault rifle, it was insignificant. Just as the Assault Player thought he was about to succeed, Xie Wei calmly took out a syringe and injected himself.

As the Medic’s most powerful healing method, the moment the syringe was injected, Xie Wei’s health bar instantly returned to full.

Assault Player: ??? Why does a Sniper have a syringe?

He suddenly recalled being headshot by a sniper rifle while trying to take out the Medic earlier, and he realized something, his face showing shock and disbelief.

Xie Wei didn’t give him a chance to continue his thoughts. A headshot sent the Assault Player into another respawn countdown.

Having dealt with the Assault Player, Xie Wei didn’t plan to continue sniping from this exposed position. Putting away his pistol, he was about to leave when he paused and looked down through the window.

He saw the Medic with the ID Ice timidly hiding in the small bushes beneath the clock tower, holding his healing gun and topping up the health of the Assault Players who were rampaging in front of the church. Occasionally, he would lift his head to check the situation.

As he looked up, his eyes met Xie Wei’s. The young man immediately lowered his head and quickly moved to a different location, his movements tinged with panic.

Xie Wei watched his retreating figure, a slight smile touching his lips.

He wasn’t unfamiliar with receiving special treatment, nor had he never been praised or flattered in Ranked Matches, but this was the first time he had encountered something like this.

Xie Wei had been playing Sniper for so many years that being taken out by a rushing Assault Player was nothing new. When he spotted the enemy Assault Player, he had already planned where his next sniping spot would be after respawning.

He hadn’t expected a smoke grenade to appear in the clock tower at such a perfect moment.

The clock tower was remote, and the sniping position was high. There was only one way this could have happened—Xu Ziyan must have dodged and weaved, risking being sniped himself, to run to the base of the clock tower and throw the smoke grenade through the window, saving him in the nick of time.

Thinking of this, a strange feeling surfaced in Xie Wei’s heart.

Adding the healing syringe from before… if Xu Ziyan didn’t harbor any extra feelings for him, would he have gone to such lengths?

However, he had saved Xu Ziyan earlier, so Xu Ziyan had saved him in return.

It was a reciprocal action, merely repaying a favor.

It was also possible that he was trying to attract his attention through such actions, hoping to gain some benefit from him.

Both were possible. In any case, it couldn’t be because he liked him.

With this thought, Xie Wei’s mood calmed significantly. He tugged at the corner of his mouth, shouldered his sniper rifle, and moved toward the next sniping spot.
