Chapter 17: Special Companion Play (1)
The next morning, I routinely swiped the game's handheld client on my phone before waking up to see the progress of the title league and the rankings of each team. By the way, in the event analysis, find out if the professional players have developed any new playing styles or new ideas.
I noticed that the bold text on the front page of the event was given the title "Xuanqi Comeback? Gu Junfeng fights against the sky, and the new skill 'Tianfeng Xianglong Stick' is hotly discussed". Seeing this, I secretly laughed in my heart, thinking that Gu Junfeng could get this skill, and I would have contributed to it.
Of course, it is impossible for Mr. Hyun Qi to make a comeback, and the day after we got the skill, it is said that some fans saw him queuing up at the hospital to hang up for surgery.
Then, I casually browsed some battle reports, and a small text in an inconspicuous corner at the bottom of the homepage caught my attention: "The Four Envoys Team went to City C to participate in offline exchange activities tomorrow."
City C is the city where I live. Lin Xun has just passed away, and the Four Envoys team is on the cusp of public opinion, although according to the schedule, the Four Ambassadors team has not played for a week, but it seems a little inappropriate to pull all the main forces to engage in offline activities during the season.
Most of the offline activities of the major teams of "Book Title" in recent years have changed the soup but not the medicine. They all rent a venue in a large shopping mall or convention and exhibition center, hang up the sponsor's sign, and get a few computers, so that professional players and fans can play a dozen water friends in the venue, and then make some embarrassing interactive links, and draw some small gifts from sponsors to the audience.
And the water friend race is carried out through the mock suit of the title of the book. The original intention of the title simulation server is to help players become familiar with the combos and weapons skills of this relatively hardcore game. After logging into the simulator, players can only play with twenty characters with different weapon combinations provided by the system by default.
These characters have relatively balanced stats, and each can only use twenty of the game's usual weapon skills. This arrangement is actually very easy to understand, and it is definitely unrealistic for sailors and professional players to take their own accounts. The account attributes, equipment and skills of professional players are all crushing water friends, not to mention the gap in technology. If you really want to fight like this, the fans' game experience must be poor.
Moreover, offline activities generally have projections, and the competition process will be watched by everyone. If you use your own account, the sailors who come to interact with the pros will inevitably reveal their character names, and some extreme fans of the pros may do something unpredictable to the sailors who come to interact with them in the game. Therefore, in order to protect the privacy of interactive sailors, it is also a better choice to use a simulated server.
As mentioned before, at this juncture, it is extremely unreasonable for the four ambassadors to engage in offline activities, and with their current ranking, the playoff spots are not secure. Moreover, they came to my city C again, not because I was narcissistic, but I always felt that they were coming for me.
Think about it, if the people behind the scenes suspect that I have obtained something extraordinary, they will definitely try to come and try it. If they buy the sponsors, offer high prices, and attract the Four Ambassadors to come, then everything can be explained.
And if I really show up at offline events, it can be said that I don't recruit myself and throw myself into the net. But this offline interaction is indeed a rare opportunity for me, a chance to get closer to the truth.
According to the video left by Lin Xun, the mastermind behind the scenes bought off one or several of the members of the Four Envoys team who played at that time. And this time, except for Lin Xun, the other four people on the field at that time will appear in this offline event, wanting to find out who is the one who was bought, this event can be said to be a unique opportunity.
And the mastermind behind the scenes must have seized on this and lured me, who might know a certain amount of the inside story, to show up to confirm if I knew more about it. I'm glad that I have learned a lot of habits of analyzing problems with Zhou Zhenyu these days, which made me think of this section and not be too impulsive and miss a big thing.
When things get here, there must be a lot of people who have questions. If you want to find out who is playing match-fixing, wouldn't it be good to review the video of the game at that time? Isn't it clear who an actor is?
However, things are not as simple as everyone thinks, and people who play match-fixing often do not "act" obviously, considering their own situation. On the contrary, those players who made unusually low-level mistakes and were scolded as "actors" and "fake matches" may be real momentary mistakes, not fake matches.
The footage of that game, I have reviewed it many times in private. At that time, the state of the whole team of the Four Envoys was not good, and if you really want to say that it is most like a match-fixing, I am afraid it is Lin Xun himself. Moreover, because of Lin Xun's poor performance, the person who really played the fake match did not need to act obviously, which also brought difficulties to my judgment.
Based on the video footage of the game, I preliminarily identified the suspicion on two people.
One of them is Qi Shengjie, an archer player who has recklessly gone alone as a ranged character in the battlefield of the game. And Lin Xun manipulated the act of killing to save him, and once killed the enemy, but after he could kill and enter the field, he himself slipped out and sold Lin Xun.
Not only that, but he didn't give fire support in time, which indirectly led to Lin Xun being killed, and the battlefield match instantly became four to five, falling into a big disadvantage.
Second, it is Yue Qian, the player of ID Wind Chimes, she is one of the few female players in the top league of "Book Title", and her skills can only be said to be decent, but because of her high appearance, she still attracts a lot of fans. In that game, she had an inconspicuous but suspicious move.
The weapon used by the Wind Chime is the Koto, a relatively rare ranged two-handed weapon, and the skill of the Chime is characterized by area damage and buff bonuses. In the team match, that is, in the 5v5 confrontation, he gave Lin Xun a buff called "Battle Spirit", the effect of this buff is to increase the damage caused by 20%, and the damage received also increases by 20%.
It's a character who can kill a combination of swords and shields.,Offensive and defensive.,Normally,It's not too much of a problem to give him this buff.,But it's to blame for the timing of her buff.。
At that time, he was being suppressed by the opponent's swordsman, and that swordsman had already made most of his moves, and Lin Xun could only use his shield to defend at that time. And at this moment, the wind chime gave him this buff that would increase when he received damage, causing Wei Xianzhi to come out in a row, although Lin Xun also connected a defensive skill attached to a shield, but he still lost a lot of blood.
