Glory [e-sports]

Chapter 185: Brother Xiao, isn’t having the captain already enough?



As soon as their opponents exposed themselves, the two sides’ positions could clearly be seen on the map.

GOQ’s jungler and support were surrounding them from the bottom, and GOQ’s marksman no longer hid behind the tower and eagerly tried to hold back Yue Wenle.

Looking at Yue Wenle’s position, he looked like dumpling filling that was waiting to be wrapped up and surrounded.

Wei Xiao was currently killing the wolf creep. “Old Bai, teleport.” Then, he hit the teleport button himself.

If GOQ wanted to fight, then they’d fight.

Unexpectedly, Yue Wenle actually stopped them. “No need.”

Wei Xiao’s teleport was still casting.

Yue Wenle: “Don’t break your rhythm.”

Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment. He moved his fingers and stopped the teleport, smiling as he said, “Badass, Old Yue.”

Yue Wenle stared at the screen, his voice languid, “It’s alright.”

The conversation between the two of them made Ning Zhehan twitch his ears. “This sounds familiar.”

Bai Cai rolled his eyes. “Middle-schoolers are easily amused.”

Yue Wenle didn’t let Wei Xiao teleport because Wei Xiao was in the top lane and had only finished snatching up half of his resources. The best result that could be achieved from him coming down at this time would be him killing one of GOQ’s players, but it would be very difficult to keep Yue Wenle alive.

FTW and GOQ would trade one kill for another, but FTW’s jungle clearing rhythm would be thrown off, resulting in greater losses.

Yue Wenle’s positioning was reckless, but this judgement wasn’t reckless at all.

The fans’ understanding was a bit shallower, and their hearts had already started to beat fiercely.

“Are they going to sell Lele out?”

“Although Lele’s positioning is a bit reckless, it’s completely possible for them to fight if they teleported over.”

“If they sell him, then they sell him. As long as Quiet can develop, GOQ is still done for.”

“God Le’s the marksman, though. Is it okay for FTW to abuse their ADC like this…”

What the haters said didn’t need to be mentioned. In any case, it was all repetitive speculation about FTW’s failures. If it didn’t make the players themselves break down, it was still enough to mess with the mentality of the fans, and in any case, it did nobody any good to see it.

On the commentator stand, Brother Mouth and Lili were also analyzing the battle situation.

“The gold hunter is a talent that relies heavily on farm. Dying once at the start of the game will have a big impact.”

“But if Quiet chooses to go support him in this wave, the upper jungle zone will be lost and it wasn’t easy to dominate. Instead, they’ll fall into GOQ’s feint and attack trap.”

“Team GOQ is amazing; they’ve found a way to calm down after losing two games. They’re really worthy of being a team that has rushed their way into the top eight.”

“Brother Mouth, did my eyes blur for a moment? Did Quiet press the teleport button, then cancel it?”

“It seems that they discussed it on team chat.”

The situation changed, “Yue Wenle didn’t retreat. Instead, he approached the enemy’s defense tower!”

The director fixed the camera to show the canyon’s bottom lane. Another shot locked in on Yue Wenle’s face.

Yue Wenle was born pale, the type of paleness that seemed bloodless, and his features were very tender. He was clearly already 18, but he looked like a middle schooler. Adding on the way his chips never left his hands, when the club went out for events and he stood next to Brother Tang, the staff would actually think that they were father and son.

Last year, he’d attracted countless fans when he joined FTW.

This silent number one ADC in the country hadn’t shown up out of thin air.

The gold hunter was a marksman talent with limited movement ability. It didn’t have any movement skills, and its biggest advantage was that it had many control skills––strong control and soft control.

The so-called soft control was similar to a slow effect and couldn’t completely lock people down.

If the gold hunter was used well, then almost all of the damage it dealt would bring about a deceleration effect. Yue Wenle was very good at this tactic.

Seeing that GOQ’s jungler and support were coming up behind him and that the power thief’s earth stab was already on its way, Yue Wenle flashed back. He was able to dodge the ground stab, but was unable to avoid the holy priest’s bubble tune.

But he didn’t retreat at all. He ignored the two players behind him and rushed straight towards the other side’s defense tower.

GOQ’s marksman, who had come out from beneath the tower in order to cooperate with his teammates, was dazed for a moment. “Holy shit, what’s he doing!”

GOQ’s jungler and support’s eyes also grew wide. “We heard before that God Le was reckless, but… is he really this reckless?!”

Yue Wenle withstood the damage from the defense tower as arrows flew towards GOQ’s marksman, one after another.

GOQ’s marksman’s health had already been pushed down by a third, and at this time, he couldn’t hold up against the gold hunter’s intense assault.

GOQ’s junger reacted. “F*ck! Old Hua, hurry and hit him with a basic attack!”

But it was too late.

By the time GOQ’s marksman responded, his health had already reached the bottom along with Yue Wenle’s.

GOQ’s jungler used a movement skill to rush over, but was only able to hit Yue Wenle’s body.

System Announcement––

First Blood!

FTW.Le killed GOQ.Hua.

FTW.Le was killed by the tower.

There were exclamations across the whole scene!

This wave of operations was too wonderful!

Old Yue, who’d been surrounded like dumpling filling, had advanced instead of retreating and had recklessly obtained the greatest benefits he could in a situation where his death was certain!

He couldn’t run in any case, and it would be pointless even if he used flash. Since his death was certain, Wei Xiao and Bai Cai wouldn’t be able to save him even if they came. If they really did come and didn’t play well, they may have ended up sending themselves to death one after another instead.

Instead of messing up the jungler’s rhythm and impacting the team’s development, it was better to take First Blood.

In fact, there was a bit of luck involved in Yue Wenle sending his kill to the tower. He hadn’t expected GOQ’s marksman to cower so much that he didn’t even dare to click on him once.

When towers attacked players, as long as the opponent even touched the player a little bit, the kill would be attributed to the player.

Unfortunately, GOQ’s marksman had too little health, and his reaction had been too slow. He’d been caught by surprise by Yue Wenle’s attack, and he’d already fallen by the time he thought to click and attack.

Wei Xiao whistled in the voice chat.

Yue Wenle’s expression was calm. “Routine operations.”

Wei Xiao was amused. “Captain, was Old Yue our team’s king of boasting before I came along?”

Brother Cai and Little Ning both thought that their cold-faced great demon king wouldn’t reply. Unexpectedly…

Lu Feng: “Yes.”

Yue Wenle: “……”

Bai Cai and Little Ning laughed themselves silly.

GOQ had utterly failed with their attempt and were reflecting on it like crazy in their team chat.

“He’s not so-so.”

“Nonsense! After all, he was last year’s supernova…”

“Ahhhh, it’s all because the grandmaster is too eye-catching and blinded me so I thought that God Le was soft and easy to bully.”

“I just f*cking remembered, last year when FTW met 3U in the semi-finals, it was Asleep and Yue Wenle who dazzled the whole scene, okay?”

“…………”

“I was too presumptuous!”

Not only did they remember that, even the fans remembered it.

In last year’s FTW, the great demon king was still in the jungler position, Brother Tang was in the top lane, and they had a so-so stand-in player in the mid-lane. Yue Wenle back then had been the most brilliant player.

Asleep and Congyi’s jungler and support combo was known as the crazy dogs of the canyon.

Although Bai Cai was a zen youth, he was unable to hold up against Yue Wenle’s recklessness, and the two of them created a unique chemical reaction when they played together.

Last year, Asleep had torn through all the c-positions in the canyon, but Yue Wenle was a hard bone to crack.

In the semi-finals, the five games they played were filled with thrilling excitement, and it was Yue Wenle’s frost hunter who’d determined the winner!

That precise arrow made of dark ice locked in on Asleep every time.

It caused up to two seconds of control, and all Cong Yi could do was ‘sacrifice himself for love’!

GOQ’s Coach Sun watched calmly from beneath the stage.

The idea that the team had come up with in the lounge was to avoid Wei Xiao and target Yue Wenle.

Although they’d taken a very zen mentality with them when playing in the playoffs, who didn’t have a small desire for victory burning in their hearts?

Even if it was a huge mountain, they still wanted to climb over it.

Even if it was a sea, they wanted to conquer it.

Wasn’t that what e-sports was all about?

Taking down an impossible victory was what real competition was!

Coach Sun knew very clearly that Yue Wenle wasn’t an easy target, but he didn’t pour cold water over their heads.

Go ahead.

It wasn’t a big deal to lose.

Playing a good game was the best nutrition on the path to growth!

Backstage, in the TPT lounge.

Eurostar clicked his tongue. “Old Yue is still vigorous.”

Fu Li asked him, “If it was you just now…”

Eurostar: “How would I let myself get into that position?”

Yue Wenle was reckless, while he was careful. As a little cowardly baby, he had the advantage of being more sensitive and alert, and wouldn’t have been surrounded like dumpling filling.

Fu Li: “What I’m saying is, what if you were GOQ’s marksman.”

Eurostar got it. His eyes brightened. “First Blood would be mine. I’m not Old Yue’s.”

The implication was that he could easily kill Yue Wenle, and Yue Wenle shouldn’t even think of killing him.

This was the gap between players.

GOQ didn’t give up. Although their first round of sneak attacks failed, they were very clear on their intentions for this game and insisted on going up against Yue Wenle.

As long as Wei Xiao showed himself, they would swiftly pounce over to the other side. GOQ’s support was like a chicken thief, and first built up an acceleration buff so that he could take the mid-laner and jungler with him, moving around swiftly like a gust of wind.

In fact, it would be very easy to mess with them. Wei Xiao only needed to stalk them on the bottom lane, since they didn’t dare to go mess with Close no matter what.

If he stayed in the bottom jungler zone, he’d be able to catch the three little guys every time.

But Wei Xiao didn’t stand guard over the bottom lane.

He didn’t say anything, and Lu Feng didn’t speak up, but Chen Feng, who was off-stage, saw things very clearly.

They were indeed giving Yue Wenle this opportunity.

Yue Wenle was a very good marksman, but he’d previously been ‘overshadowed’ by the two suns in the team.

Once he was given space to shine, he could hold up half the sky.

A team’s ADC was crucial.

They might be able to rely on Wei Xiao and Close’s strong operations to steamroll over immature teams like GOQ, but once they met a strong team, it would really rely on the integrity of the whole team.

Not only did the top-lane and jungler need to be iron buckets, their mid-laner and ADC also needed to be indestructible.

Under GOQ’s frenzied attacks, Yue Wenle was still able to become a gold daddy in the later half of the game.

In the last wave of group fights, Ning Zhehan dealt ranged attacks from afar while Yue Wenle’s DPS exploded – just three arrows from him left his opponents at critical health. By the time GOQ wanted to escape, there were two demon kings waiting behind them.

Their top-jungler combo harvested the kills, and GOQ was wiped out!

Victory!

FTW won the game 3:0 and charged into the top four!

FTW won beautifully in the first game of the playoffs.

When the two sides shook hands after the end of the game, GOQ’s players all had red rimmed eyes.

Wei Xiao smiled broadly and hugged them. “You’ve worked hard.”

It was okay when he didn’t say it, but once he did, the mid-laner, jungler, and support from GOQ all burst out crying. “Next season, we’ll…”

Wei Xiao spoke in a gentle voice, his tone like he was coaxing them, “Well, we’ll still beat you up until you cry next season.”

The three children from GOQ: “……………..”

They cried even louder!

Bai Cai jabbed this big villain with his elbow. “Enough, stop toying with them.”

Wei Xiao was startled and snuck a glance at the captain.

At this time, the host had just come over with the microphone. She heard the end of their conversation and joked, “Toying? Who is Quiet toying with?”

You really know how to pick up the thread of the conversation.

Wei Xiao didn’t want his boyfriend to be jealous at all, and he was just about to clarify everything in front of the whole country.

But Brother Cai was worthy of being the commander of FTW’s dog head division, and his ability to adapt to the situation was absolute. “Toying with me.”

The host was amused. “How so?”

Brother Cai expressionlessly stirred up his own popularity. “He disdained me for only following God Le in the last game and got jealous.”

The whole scene burst out into laughter.

Wei Xiao: “……”

Unexpectedly, Yue Wenle added a sentence in a dark tone, “Brother Xiao, isn’t having the captain already enough?”

The microphone arrived in Lu Feng’s hand, and the great demon king’s voice was clear and cold, “It seems that it’s not enough.”

Wei Xiao: “………………”

The fans in the live broadcast were going crazy with laughter. “Little Lunatic Q, you’re really capable. You actually led my FTW male god group astray and turned them into a crosstalk group ahahahahaha!”
