Glory [e-sports]

Bai Cai: “Play games?”

Although he was super sleepy, who told him to be unlucky enough to know such a beast?!

Wei Xiao pouted. “Too weak.”

Bai Cai gritted his teeth, “I’ll keep you company in the professional server!”

Wei Xiao was relentless. “You’re too weak.”

Bai Cai: “………………”

Wei Xiao even added insult to injury, “In my current state, I can’t carry you to win.”

The implication was that when Laozi was in a good state, they could still wreck havoc on heaven and earth even if Bai Cai was weak.

But now that Brother Xiao wasn’t in a good state, they would only be abused if they went to play.

Bai Cai’s heart was filled with displeasure, but he had nothing he could say to that. He asked grumpily, “Then, what do you want to do?”

Inexplicably, Brother Cai could also feel the phenomenon where ‘every second felt like a year’. He could only plead for the captain to come back quickly, as quickly as possible.

Wei Xiao cleared his throat. “Want to chat?”

Bai Cai knew that there was a trap waiting for him in this direction, but he headed over anyway. “What do you want to talk about.”

Wei Xiao became energetic. “Of course we’ll chat about the captain!”

Bai Cai: “……”

Really, Brother Cai was tired of listening to it, really, really tired of listening to it. If he was given another chance, he would never want to know about this underground love!

Wei Xiao wouldn’t let him go so easily. “Do you know when I started to like the captain?”

Brother Cai’s face was expressionless. “Winter training camp.”

Wei Xiao: “No, it was two years ago…”

Bai Cai: “……”

Wei Xiao: “You might not believe it if I tell you, but I saw one of Close’s games back then. I didn’t even know what he looked like, but I just…”

Brother Cai had already heard about this unimportant and pointless story 800 times. He’d definitely heard it at least 800 times.

He really couldn’t pretend to be surprised anymore and could only act like Brother Soy and listen on listlessly.

Wei Xiao: “You know it?”

Brother Cai was so sleepy, his vision was blurring. “Mm……”

Wei Xiao: “I think you might not have understood it, so I’ll say it again…”

There was a splat sound.

Brother Cai and Brother Soy both fell to the ground.

After talking for three hours until his mouth was dry, Wei Xiao finally let the vegetable and the dog off.

It was already seven o’clock in the morning, and there was still…

At least four hours.

Wei Xiao looked at his cell phone, then looked out the window. He was really out of options and simply went out for a run.

The May weather had warmed up. He wore a short sleeved shirt and long pants and soon worked up a sweat from running.

He’d stayed up all night and had now run for five kilometers, but he was still filled with energy. This was enough to show how excited he was.

If this was called missing Lu Feng, he really did miss him.

But it wasn’t so simple as just missing him.

He was in a state where he couldn’t hold down his emotions or keep his heart steady in his chest. It was difficult to sit still.

Wei Xiao took a shower, looked at the time, and continued to sigh.

Normally, he was always the one messing with other people’s mentality, but now, his own mentality had collapsed.

So this was what it felt to have one’s mentality collapse. It really didn’t feel good.

With two hours left, Wei Xiao sat down in front of the computer and started up his live broadcast.

How boring… he was too bored…

Although he couldn’t talk nonsense in the live broadcast room, he could have his fans look at his ID and vent a little.

Of course, there was also another reason: He had to accumulate live broadcast time so that he could be happy without any constraints when the captain came back!

Countless fans poured in as soon as Wei Xiao started up his live broadcast.

“It’s eight o’clock in the morning… Did God Q get up so early?”

“I received the live broadcast notification just after I arrived at the company. Should I watch or should I stare at it?”

“Did Baby Q not sleep all night? Mama won’t allow you to not take care of your body!”

Wei Xiao greeted everyone, then logged into the game. He entered the professional server.

After winter training camp, the competition committee had tasted this sweetness and finally put together a professional server after a long delay.

As the name suggested, the professional server only allowed registered professional players to login. In the minds of players, it was similar to a realm of gods.

There were many professional players from various competition zones all over the world. There were those who were currently active, those who were retired, those in the second or even third teams, and those who were currently making their way up from the youth training camp.

There were definitely a lot of people.

The professional player circle was also like a pyramid model.

There were few top-notch players, but there were many players in lower tiers, enough to cover the sky, and there were no shortages of masters.

Setting up a professional server was a good thing. It gave more players with potential a chance to show off their skills.

Wei Xiao didn’t have these worries, but he was also happy about the establishment of a professional server. He only had one word to describe how he felt about being able to play so easily against global experts––cool!

It wasn’t compulsory for players to use their professional IDs, but official identification was required for login. After the identification process, they could change their IDs however they liked.

Wei Xiao’s ID was very dazzling: I Like Close The Most.

In any case, he’d already ‘confessed’ all over the world. What was a mere professional server?

Laozi would use it openly.

The audience laughed knowingly when they saw this ID, “Will today’s God Q act like a person?”

“What are you talking about? The end of the world hasn’t arrived yet.”

This was a golden sentence from the fans––God Q would act like a person when the world ended.

It was 8 o’clock in the morning, but the professional server was bustling with activity. After all, it was a worldwide server, and it was a busy period for many competition zones.

Wei Xiao had just been about to start solo queueing when he saw a message.

He opened it casually; it turned out to be a friend request.

Wei Xiao looked at the ID.

Eh…

Originally, he didn’t want to add anyone, but now he accepted the request instantly.

Wei Xiao sent a message over tentatively, “God Yan?”

Since IDs could be changed at will, it could be a professional support player who admired God Yan and changed their ID to Yan.

Yan: “Mm.”

This tone didn’t seem like a fake.

Wei Xiao blinked, “What’s the matter?”

A team invitation was sent over. Of course, it came from Captain Yan.

The live broadcast room scrolling comments were going crazy. “Holy shit, it’s God Yan!”

“Is it really God Yan?”

“It really is! How many years has it been since my God Yan added a friend?”

“Three plus years probably…”

“Quiet is badass!”

“I’m jealous, I’m jealous.”

“I admire him, I admire him.”

There were also some strange messages––“He’s green, he’s green.”

Wei Xiao didn’t look at the scrolling comments. He asked Yan Jiang, “Queue?”

Yan Jiang: “Go.”

Wei Xiao had been aimless to start with. “Okay.”

After saying so, he added, “But I’m not in a good state.”

Yan Jiang: “?”

Wei Xiao explained implicitly, “The captain is coming back soon, I’m nervous.”

Sigh, the live broadcast was on and he could only explain in such an euphemistic way.

Yan Jiang didn’t seem to be interested in continuing the conversation. “Oh.”

Wei Xiao was unreconciled. “You’re not curious about why I’m nervous?”

Just then, they were matched into a team. Yan Jiang said, “Type less if you’re in a bad state.”

Wei Xiao: “…………………” He didn’t want to double queue anymore!

Forget it. After all, this was Glory’s number one support, his captain’s former captain, and he’d also tricked him during the big brawl.

Wei Xiao held on.

But typing less was impossible. Wei Xiao was now hoping to distract himself by talking.

I Like Close The Most: “What do you want to use?”

Yan: “Anything is fine.”

I Like Close The Most: “I’m in a bad state, I’ll use the shadow thief.”

Yan: “……”

Although Yan Jiang didn’t ask, the fans in the scrolling comments understood Little Lunatic Wei too well and helped him answer, “If Quiet is in a good state, he’ll also use the shadow thief!”

In any case, he just wanted to use the shadow thief!

Their teammates were a bunch of messy IDs. They didn’t know them at all, and it was obvious they didn’t understand Chinese.

When they saw Yan’s ID, they were surprised for a moment and typed out a few sentences in bad English.

Yan Jiang didn’t reply.

Wei Xiao felt that his English wasn’t bad, but he couldn’t understand what they were trying to say. From this, it could be seen that these teammates’ mother tongue must be some other language.

After entering the game, Wei Xiao was still chattering, “God Yan, go and help the bottom lane. I’m afraid I won’t even be able to brush out eight light arcs in this game.”

Wei Xiao wasn’t being modest. He was really not in the right state of mind and had even forgotten his own account password last night. The fact that he still remembered how to do combos with the shadow thief was enough to prove that he really loved the shadow thief.

As for light arcs, it would be up to fate… however many he could do would be however many he did.

Yan Jiang: “Play casually.”

Wei Xiao: “I can only play casually now.”

At the start, Wei Xiao slowly worked on killing the blue buff while the other side started off fiercely. They came over, wanting to steal his blue buff and his life, making it clear that they wanted to bully him.

Wei Xiao: “……” He was a little angry.

Two minutes later, he ran into the other side at the red buff.

Wei Xiao: “……” He was a little angry, times two.

Five minutes later, the other side caught him in the bushes near the mid-lane.

Wei Xiao turned on his mic, “If Laozi doesn’t show his tiger’s might, are you going to continue treating him like a sick cat?!”

To hell with his state being bad! This young master was going to kill you all!

Wei Xiao: “Captain Yan, come with me.”

Yan Jiang clicked on the teleport skill directly and landed in the small dragon cave.

Wei Xiao looked at the minimap. “Good!”

As soon as he spoke, he moved to the dragon cave, and Yan Jiang arrived at the same time. They had no vision on the minimap, but it didn’t prevent Yan Jiang from landing and using a light gate right away, capturing both players and the dragon.

Wei Xiao’s experience bar had just reached level six. He unlocked the light arcs.

There was a series of happy cries on the scrolling comments, “Nine light arcs, nine light arcs, God Q, hurry up!”

Wei Xiao was clear in his heart that based on his current state, there was no point thinking about nine light arcs. Even getting out eight light arcs would be pretty good.

And then……

A ray of holy light landed on Wei Xiao, and a ball of light shot out from the dragon, hitting the two enemy heroes.

Wei Xiao’s hands moved messily, but by the time he’d stacked up all his marks, the damage ratio was already as high as 900%. This…

Without the slightest pause, seemingly out of his control, he watched as nine light arcs burst out into the dragon cave.

The live broadcast was going crazy. “Quiet’s mouth is deceptive as hell.”

“Is this what you call ‘I can’t even brush out eight light arcs?’?”

“Ahhhhh, why is my husband so strong!”

Wei Xiao took down a double kill and was in an odd mood. “Captain Yan…”

Yan Jiang still gave him the same two words, “Play casually.”

Wei Xiao: “……”

It really was very casual… this was too difficult to describe.

Wei Xiao was 100% certain that his state was problematic, but he’d really been able to casually brush out nine light arcs.

The reason?

It was due to Yan Jiang’s precise control.

Outsiders couldn’t see it, but Wei Xiao understood it clearly.

Nine light arcs, if it was aimed at dummy targets, then probably 30% of the shadow thief experts in the Glory league could brush it out.

However, there were too many uncertainties in actual combat. At present, only Close could brush out nine light arcs whenever he wanted.

Wei Xiao was still in a half-dazed state, and his grasp over nine light arcs hadn’t reached that level.

Now…

Wei Xiao breathed in lightly. He’d really come to realize Yan Jiang’s strength.

He could control living people until they were like target dummies.

That was why Wei Xiao’s nine light arcs had come so easily.

The author has something to say:

When the captain comes home…
