Greatest Streamer System-Chapter 167 - – Finally, Tier 3 Achieved!

Max knew Biozone Entertainment would announce a new game or program at every monthly segment. It was like their ritual already, and the chat also knew about it.

However, what they didn't know was that Max actually had an idea of what tomorrow's announcement was. If what Mr. Taka told him before he signed his contract was true, then there would be many new games released this summer.

'I think I won't get into trouble with this, right? I just want to bring an audience to tomorrow's monthly segment.'

— Announcement, heh?

— Coming from an affiliated streamer, it seems we can look forward to this announcement

— I hope they release new games. Q3 will arrive soon.

— Q3 means summers, right? There will also be summer sales in June if they continue what they were doing last year.

— IT'S TIME FOR BIG DISCOUNT BABY!!!

— 50% UWWOOOOOGH! DISCOUNT! Summer sale is the best sale for gamers!

Max waited until the chat's commotion died down before starting Midnight Heist. The familiar bar spread into his vision.

"Let's do this."

And so, the grinding began.

***

As it was called, a grind was a grind. Max had played a few times in Tier 4 ranked, and he began to feel mentally exhausted.

— How many was it?

— 3 Lose in a row after 2 wins. He's 91/100, only a win short from reaching Tier 3 now.

— It's midnight already, but there is no sign of him stopping here

— Look at Breeze, he hasn't raised his head since his last game. It's been 3 minutes since then.

— My condolance, but this is so funny lolol. He usually take care of monsters easily, but online game is truly hell for him

— Welcome to an online game world, Breeze. NOW YOU FEEL HELL, WHAT DO YOU THINK?!

"What do I think?" Max repeated the chat question and let out a long sigh.

"It's the worst. Why the heck is my teammate not serious? And guys, take it easy on me. I know some of you were my enemies in the last game, but how could you steal the target so fast?! Give me time to whip my teammates!"

His viewers were pretty skilled. Some of them queued up with him to play together, but most ended up being on the other side and becoming enemies. That was one of the reasons why he suffered continuous losses in the past few games.

The other reason was just the usual: a useless teammate who played casually in a ranked game.

"I mean… If they want to play around, they can do normal matchmaking! I am serious about reaching Tier 2 and entering the tournament, for the god of RNG's sake!"

Letting out another sigh, he looked at the floating camera in front of him.

"Guys, let's have another deal. Please don't queue for the next game and let me win, okay? Just this one. We will play together in Tier 3 if that's what you want."

— I am pretty tired so I would just watch

— Stop it guys. Let him reach Tier 3

— Sounds good

— NT NT, do your best in your next match

— How about we join and throw so you can advance to Tier 3 easily?

"Nah, don't do that." He immediately stopped his viewers and pressed the matchmaking button. "I don't like playing unfairly. I will win by myself."

[Match Found.]

A few seconds after he pressed the matchmaking, he found the ranked match. Countdown appeared on the screen as his body was covered in a blue light, he was in the process of being teleported.

[Map: Beach (Ranked)]

[Your role is as… a Thief!]

[Target: Sea Ring]

Unexpectedly, the map and the target were identical to his first game. Only… It was the ranked version, so the beach house was bigger and more secure than a normal match.

His teammates appeared one by one around him. They were wearing various clothes, seemingly luxurious. Just as usual, he only wore the default clothing and immediately became the center of attention.

Greeting them would lower their suspicion. But when he was about to say something, a man in an ape mask suddenly exclaimed.

"Ah! Your name is Breeze! Could it be that you're the new world record holder for the synchronization test? I saw you on the billboard, dude! Or are you a different Breeze?"

It seemed like he recognized him. When he looked at the ape-masked man's name, it said EgiRice. It would help him to explain better.

"Yes, I am that Breeze." Max nodded, confirming the man's words. "May I ask you to trust me and follow my plan? We will definitely win this game."

"I don't mind," EgiRice answered immediately, pointing at one of the two girls in the team. "This girl has a mask that allows her to be invisible for a few seconds. This map needs a key from the host, right? She can steal it for him and give you the target."

The girl with the nickname ChubbyCutie looked rather surprised and shot a look at EgiRice.

"Can we trust him?"

"If we can't trust him, then who else? I saw his world record many times and learned a lot. However, I still can't replicate his movement and still need these shoes to climb walls. If it's him, reaching the third floor surely isn't a problem at all!"

"Well…" ChubbyCutie hesitated a little, glancing at Max. "If you say so."

They seemed to know each other. It wasn't strange as they could form a party of 2 and get matched with people in a party of 3 or another party of 2 added with a random person.

This situation was the latter. The other two seemed to be a couple, and they nodded at each other.

"We will also trust you. Please tell us the plan."

"Thanks for trusting us. As ChubbyCutie has an invisible mask…"

Max proceeded to relay his plan like usual, and they moved once the barrier around them disappeared. It was smooth sailing. Every time something happened, the chat made a commotion.

— Damn! That girl can steal!

— That's why the invisible mask is broken

ChubbyCutie managed to steal the key from the party house in under 3 minutes after the game started. She handed Max the key, which he used to enter the office with SeaRing.

Without hesitation, he opened the glass case and triggered the alarm.

"Please distract their attention," Max said to EgiRice before running out without waiting for his answer with the SeaRing.

The police players burst into the room at once. There were four of them, meaning only one was on the loose.

Facing them, EgiRice activated his ape mask ability.

"ROAAARRRR!!"

A loud roar escaped his mask mouth as it parted widely. The police officers were frozen in their place, stunned by the roar. The effect, however, only lasted for 3 seconds, so it wasn't that great of an ability compared to the others.

But for Max, 3 seconds were enough to widen their gap.

'I win!' He thought as he jumped down to the second floor with a dive roll. Following that, he vaulted over the railing and landed on the first floor easily.

In just 3 seconds, he had lost the four police officers on the third floor. And he did all that without using any ability.

"CRAZY!" EgiRice shouted loudly from the third floor as he and ChubbyCutie got caught by the police.

— IT'S INDEED CRAZY!

— HE'S ON FIRE

— Wooooooo! JUMP JUMP JUMP! His movement is smoother than before!

— Go Breeze! Take that win!

Running across the street, he met with the last police who didn't join the rush on the third floor. A gun was pointed right at his face from a close distance, and without hesitation, the police pulled the trigger.

The beam flew right toward him. There was no way to avoid it from this distance. However... That was for a normal person. It didn't apply to Breeze, whose reflex was similar to a superhuman, thanks to his high SR.

"Speed Mask."

Max activated his mask ability and gained speed twice as fast as before. He jumped to the left, kicking the wall to pass the police, and continued on his way after making a clean shoulder roll. Following that, he was faced with a cliff, which wasn't any problem either.

"Jump Shoes."

Using the ability of the shoes that nullified any fall damage, Max soared in the air. His teammates were trying their best to stop the police, and the other party also tried to catch them instead of rushing toward Max because they wanted the bonus from catching the thieves. freewebnøvel.com

That was their mistake. They shouldn't have rushed into the room together and should've secured the thieves' exit instead.

The area where Max landed was the street right next to the escape hovercar. He immediately entered and pressed the escape button without hesitation. The car started, and it ran off into the distance, leaving the beach house.

Inside the car, he trembled in excitement as he threw his arms above.

"I DID IT!" He shouted loudly, a large smile formed under his mask, "Wooohoo, Tier 3! I finally reached it!"

— Congratulations!

— HE DID IT!

— I WAS HERE

— I was here

— Hello, Punchtube!

— We only need to grind to Tier 2 now

— No one stops him! He did it!

— Heh, he can do it if he tries

[LovelyOtter has donated 333 diamonds!]

[Tier 3! Congratulations!]

[BloodSucker has donated 3,333 diamonds!]

[Heh, it seems I have something to edit now. Leave it to this noble me to make you looks more pathetic than you are right now!]

[…]

[…]

[ChopChopLeader has donated 1,000 diamonds!]

[Congratulations! Hehe, I am happy to see you succeed!]

Many donations poured in as Max managed to achieve his goal. However, his excitement didn't die down yet.

He thanked his teammates, who got teleported after the game ended. Then, when he was transferred into the Lobby, he immediately looked at his Tier above the match button.

The number 4 glowed brightly before it shattered into pieces.

Then, the scattered bits gathered together and created a bronze 3, standing on fire beside the words 'Tier.' It was the proof that he had reached Tier 3, something insignificant for the others but an achievement for him in the truest sense.

"Aaaah! Thank god! I did it!"
