Top Of Glory[Esports] Chapter 49
byYunyong
Lao Tao’s prediction seems to have not taken effect.
The third game ended uneventfully.
Except for the emotional Applejack, Captor’s other players were also in poor condition. Overall, they seemed to have been drained of energy and their offense was weak.
So in the third game, FP won the game without any suspense and entered the match point.
Captor’s performance in this game disappointed the audience who had watched the first two games with excitement and expectations.
Some people even dropped their support items, got up and left.
Although it was a tailwind game, the game was not too enjoyable for several players.
How can unilateral massacre be as interesting as an evenly matched battle?
What’s more, since the two teams have such a connection with each other over cider, it’s impossible to have a calm and polite conversation on the forum.
On the sofa in the lounge, Fade was paralyzed, half alive, “Is the third game just over? Why do I feel like a lifetime has passed?”
Qiao Zhi went over and hit him on the head, muttering, “Children don’t have a good mouth.”
Lao Tao didn’t expect to win this game so easily. Although it felt a bit strange, after all, he was leading Captor 2:1, so he didn’t think much about it.
Only Hechen was sitting in the corner, staring at the window screen, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lin An had noticed from just now that He Chen had been frowning, as if he was worried.
The sofa beside him sank a bit. He Chen was slightly startled and turned his head to look. As expected, it was Lin An. Although he was worried, he couldn’t help but pursed his lips and smiled.
After thinking about it, he asked Lin An: “Do you also think that Captor is at the end of his rope now, so he has given up on struggling?”
Lin An raised his eyebrows, “What do you think?”
He Chen held the box of eye drops Qiao Zhi gave him in his hand, pressed the carton with his thumb, turned it over, and folded it over.
“I can’t explain it, but I always feel that it’s not that simple.” The corners of He Chen’s lips lowered, “Something went wrong…”
But the game has reached this point, how can they make a breakthrough?
He Chen always had a bad feeling.
Lin An handed over a thermos cup and unscrewed the lid. He Chen had developed a habit over a period of time. He took it from his hand and took a sip. He pulled the paper towel on the table and wiped away the water stains on Lin An’s mouth when he unscrewed the lid.
Walking to the coffee table and throwing away the tissue, He Chen suddenly thought of something and asked Qiao Zhi: “Manager Qiao, you said before… Captor bought several players from other teams. Besides Applejack, who else is there?”
“Who else?” Qiao Zhi was stunned for a moment when asked, “Just… what you saw today, Star, Mango, Blue, and Aya, all five of them were bought back.”
“Besides them, is there anyone else?” He Chen asked.
“Others…” Qiao Zhi really couldn’t remember clearly, “Is this important?”
“Well…”
Lao Tao looked over suddenly, and he suddenly understood what He Chen meant.
But it’s actually too late.
The referee knocked on the door of the FP lounge and told them a piece of news.
In the fourth game, Captor requested to be replaced as a substitute.
At the same time, Qiao Zhi’s cell phone kept vibrating. Several messages had been received in less than a moment, and pictures were being sent continuously.
“I…” Qiao Zhi saw the news clearly and felt a burst of anger.
Considering the players who were about to start the game, Qiao Zhi took a deep breath and swallowed back his anger, even the veins on his forehead stretched out.
“…It’s okay.” Qiao Zhi took a deep breath and smiled, “You go and get ready.”
Lin An took a deep look at Qiao Zhi.
Qiao Zhi looked at him normally, and even his tone was the same as usual.
“I was urged to come on stage quickly and then go home after playing.”
Lin An didn’t say anything and led the contestants onto the stage.
After they left, Lao Tao noticed something strange about Qiao Zhi and had a bad premonition, “…why are your hands shaking?”
Qiao Zhi took a deep breath, fell down beside Lao Tao, threw the phone to him, “Let He Chen guess it right.”
“What do you mean?” Lao Tao frowned, took the phone and flipped through a piece of information Qiao Zhi received. He scrolled to the last page and read it. He was so surprised that his insides stretched open.
“Captor also bought a player from South Korea?” Lao Tao asked, “Why didn’t you tell them just now?”
“My mistake.” Qiao Zhi gritted his teeth and said bitterly: “These thieves probably wanted to hide him early on, so they didn’t let him be in the starting lineup, but put him on the bench. In the early games, this Korean foreign aid did not appear. But I just checked and found that he had good results in South Korea, but there was a team in the team that suppressed him and prevented him from getting ahead.”
“I know this guy, Winwin, is indeed a very talented support player…” Lao Tao recalled a game he once observed, and he still feels shocked. “At that time, he was still in an unknown team, and the support position was one to four, and he was in Busan.In a small competition, I won the then-popular KOE… Later, I don’t know why, but I was bought by KOE again, and then I said that I was tortured so much in the team, and that the bullying by their seniors was more serious. In the end, I disappeared from everyone, and I never heard anyone mention it again…”
“So they were bought and hidden by Captor?” Lao Tao also found it very unbelievable. “They are this year…Is there any reason why they have to win? With such a big deal and conspiracy, they all come together to fight?”
Qiao Zhi’s eyebrows were always locked, and he secretly had a guess in his heart, but he didn’t say anything, “Anyway, it’s my fault this time because the investigation failed. But in the situation just now, when they came to the stage, I couldn’t throw a surprise at them…”
“Since you have watched Winwin’s game, let me tell you…” Qiao Zhi asked hesitantly: “Since he played for Applejack, who is better between him and He Chen?”
This question shouldn’t actually be asked, but now that the players are on the stage, it’s okay to ask.
Lao Tao smacked his lips, “If you look at it from the perspective of basic operations… Winwin is a steady player. The e-sports ecosystem in South Korea is like a wolf and tiger, so he can’t help but relax a little, so he must be better in this aspect…”
“But He Chen…” Lao Tao thought about it for a while and had to admit: “I actually haven’t seen through him yet.”
The people in the soundproof cabin behind this discussion are currently unknown.
The screen began to scroll with player information from both sides. After seeing the ID Winwin, Lin An’s movement of adjusting the microphone suddenly paused for a second.
If He Chen felt something, he raised his head and looked at Lin An.
“What expression are you looking at? Is this person famous?” Fade wondered, leaning over to take a closer look at the photo on the screen, “Is it him, substitute Applejack? Those single-lidded eyes don’t look like Han Chinese.”
Venus: “…If someone attacks me personally, I’ll cut it into the post-game highlights for you and let me see what you do. Besides, she might have the single-eyelid gene. Why are you making fun of people?”
“Your sixth sense actually works sometimes,” Lin secretly tried the microphone and complimented Fade casually, “It deserves recognition.”
This compliment was so obscure that Fade didn’t react for a moment, “What? Holy shit? He is really a foreigner? Do you know him?”
“I’ve heard a little bit.” Lin An’s eyes darkened, the BP link prompt sounded, and his conditioned reflex was normal. Lin An immediately entered a state of preparation for battle.
Fade belatedly said, “He can be a substitute for Applejack, so he must be pretty good, right?”
He Chen glanced sideways and subconsciously exchanged glances with Lin An from a distance.
It’s hard to say who will be who’s replacement.
Surprisingly, Captor chose the moon goddess Artemis in this round.
“He also uses Luna?” Fade was stunned, “Is this Captor’s replacement for Applejack?”
He Chen raised his eyes slightly but said nothing.
Don’t talk about them, Qiao Zhi can’t understand Captor’s operation.
“We Hechen should know the role of the Moon God very well. Is there any significance for him to play the role of the Moon God at this time?” Qiao Zhi is not a player and has a general understanding of the game, but after so many years, he knows a little bit about it.
Lao Tao’s eyes were fixed on the screen, watching the dynamics of his players through the screen, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
He still remembers that game.
Winwin won the first game with four wins, which shocked the audience.
Next, the second game of BO3…
Winwin played the character that the KOE support player used in the first round and used the opponent’s specialty character to ruthlessly defeat him.
After this game, KOE briefly fell into a storm of public opinion, but the public opinion soon ended.
KOE’s former assistant was once hailed as Korea’s genius assistant and had reached the altar. After this game, he attempted suicide due to excessive psychological pressure and had to retire early due to an emotional breakdown.
KOE’s auxiliary position was acquired by those who were able to do so, and soon the newly signed auxiliary Winwin took the starting position in the auxiliary position.
Winwin is also known as a genius auxiliary terminator.
No matter how talented you are, Winwin has a way of catching your weaknesses, crushing you from the inside, and making your beliefs collapse like a mountain.
From the moment Winwin selected Artemis, Lao Tao knew that what he was most worried about had happened.
After seeing the character chosen by the opponent, Lin An instantly understood Winwin’s intention and raised his eyes quickly.
In the commentary box, the two commentators were also curious about the BP lineup on the field.
“In today’s competition, the moon goddess Artemis seems to be very popular among the support players.” Xiaojie said tactfully.
Si Si was more direct, “It seems that Winwin, our Captor player, is bound to win this role, so we have to lock her in as soon as she comes on the stage and not give Dawn player any chance to counter-choose.”
“So – the fourth round is about to begin. Will Captor be able to turn the tide and start the fifth round? Or will FP end this game? Let’s wait and see!”
“Shh-” Xiaojie winked playfully, signaling Si Si to be silent, “I heard the sound of the map unrolling.”
The wind blows and the clouds surge.
