Chapter 8: The Eve of War (5)

Imagine that a person who has been invincible all year round has been trying to find an opponent who is evenly matched. Now that such a person suddenly appears, the original peaceful state of mind will naturally change, and the breakup with the cat food sauce and the severance of the self-destructive love affair are also likely to be related to this matter.

Lights now want to concentrate on improving themselves, waiting for the hooded man to reappear and defeat him in one fell swoop. Although this still can't explain the rumors that he didn't work hard, it did find a reasonable motivation for his behavior before and after the breakup.

However, with the top league just around the corner, I had a reasonable opportunity to make contact with the team. At present, I have nine entries for my grudge, and as long as I defeat the last person, I will be done and let this "quasi-Shenwu" level weapon enter the arena.

And this last person is Shang Xian, the first swordsman of the current "Book Title" in most people's hearts, this person's biggest controversy comes from the sidelines, not his strength, and his Shenwu "phase" is considered the best sword in today's game.

I contacted Shang Xian through the team, and the other party said that he has been very busy with various things recently, and if I want the attributes of his sword, he can take the initiative to give it to me, and I don't need to have to fight so troublesomely. It seems that he is a little overwhelmed by the various rhythms of the lights a while ago, and considering that I am the "initiator" of this matter, he does not want to deal with me because of this.

However, his attitude made me feel like "food from the mouth", and Sangxian was too special. As far as I'm concerned, I don't have to prove that I can beat a streamer like Penguin, and if she gives me the entry, I can gladly accept it. Because anyone with a discerning eye knows that if you really want to fight, ten of her are not my opponents. But Sang-hyun is different, I don't have any confidence that I can beat him in heads-up, so it seems a little unconfident to take his entry for nothing.

So, I tried to put myself in his position and analyzed: "If I bring the grudge to the field, the player will definitely recognize that the last entry is yours, and then there will definitely be rumors spread by good people who will say that we had a private battle and you lost to me, so I can get your entry, and this will not have an impact on your reputation?" ”

Sang-hyun's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Reputation? Oh, I've long since lost my reputation. ”

Me: "......"

Back then, because he "defected" to His Excellency's team, he joined forces to create the big boss in the league now. As a result, he was not only attacked by the fans of his old club, the Futu team, but even passers-by also lost their favor with him as a surrender faction who "joined if he couldn't beat it". And now against me, a rookie who has just come up from the second league, he is showing no fighting spirit at all. At this point, people are already willing to give their attributes with both hands, what else do I have to say?

When I was taking his attributes, I couldn't help but ask one more thing about the lights. Originally, I thought of a lot of wording in advance and carefully considered how to ask Sanghyun as a teammate in my position, but in the end, I still asked a very non-emotional intelligence straight question: "Is it true that the lights are not young, and you don't usually train much?" ”

Sang-hyun's answer was also very simple: "I don't know." ”

Everyone is a teammate, look up and don't look down, don't you know if you train hard or not? Unless the lights are on, as the cat food sauce said, there are no days of the year to stay in the base. I realized that Shang Xian really didn't want to talk more about this issue, so I didn't ask any more questions, but he suddenly sent a puzzled question.

Shang Xian: "Chen Liao, do you think you can beat us?" ”

Since it was a typing communication in the game, I couldn't hear the tone, so I was a little unsure of his intention to ask this for a while. Just a casual question? Or is it a provocation? Or do you come to me with self-doubt for confirmation?

"Looking at it now, I can't win it." I'll be honest.

Sanghyun: "Then who do you think can beat us now?" ”

Me: "I don't know, maybe we'll have to wait until your group of players get old, or if there's a big change in the version." ”

Sanghyun: "Ugh...... You have good work. ”

What's the matter with his sigh? I always feel that although this person has a soft hand in winning the championship, he also seems to be in pain. The conversation between me and Shang Xian happened to be seen by the moon god who came to the training room to hang around, only to hear him sigh and say: "Alas, Shang Xian is a player, it's a pity." ”

Listening to the meaning of the moon god's words, he seemed to know what was going on, and he was our own boss, of course, there was nothing to be embarrassed to ask, so I asked: "Mr. Zhang, what do you mean by this?" ”

Zhang Guangyue: "Did he send you the entry directly?" ”

Me: "Yes, I also told him that if I gave the entry directly to my fans in the future, he would say that his strength was not as good as mine, which would affect his reputation." As a result, he didn't care, and said that he had no reputation to speak of for a long time. ”

Zhang Guangyue: "He's a person, let me tell you, he's not afraid of being known by fans that his strength is not as good as you, but that he himself knows." ”

Me: "What does that mean?" ”

Zhang Guangyue: "You also know that he has been the No. 1 swordsman for a while, and he must have some idol baggage, so far, he has basically not had a one-on-one battle with the younger generation of swordsmen in the ring, it's just that the burden is too heavy, and he wants to win and is afraid of losing." As long as he doesn't play against you, the MVP of the minor league, he can continue to deceive himself and still not be surpassed by the latecomers. ”

Me: "No, if he was so afraid of losing, how could he have practiced to the level he is today?" ”

Zhang Guangyue: "I don't know what he has experienced in the past few years, in short, he was not like this before. After losing to me, he asked me how to improve on the other hand. Later, for a while, he seemed to be obsessed, saying that he could only seek a breakthrough in the realm, and cut off all his parents, relatives and friends, in order to practice some 'absolute sword'. ”

Me: "...... This is too middle two, e-sports is not martial arts, how can there be a reason to become stronger by cutting off emotions? Moreover, even in it, this is generally the setting of the villain, and it will definitely be defeated in the end. And "Book Title" is a game that pays attention to coordination, how can he have a tacit understanding with his teammates when he does this? ”

Zhang Guangyue: "Yes, I don't know what he thinks, but looking back now, his strength did grow very quickly during that time." ”
