Top Of Glory[Esports] Chapter 31
byaccident
EFRA issued an official statement. After verification, FP-Dawn did not operate illegally, while GND-Tiger received a warning and notification, plus a fine.
As soon as the official announcement came out, the circle was bombarded. Not to mention, GND made its attitude clear at this juncture.
“Tiger was directly banned by GND.” While eating lunch, Lao Tao remembered this matter.
Qiao Zhi’s face didn’t look very good, he finished the food in the bowl and left.
“Who provoked him?” Fade was still chewing rice and looked at Qiao Zhiku’s back with confusion.
“GND, who else could it be?” Venus checked her phone for a while, “Everyone in the forum is saying that GND is a righteous exterminator and has e-sports character.”
Lao Tao also put away the dishes and chopsticks, “You guys eat, I’ll go take a look.”
Several people at the table looked at each other, then each took out their mobile phones to browse the messages.
“Are you crazy? Just to deal with a problem player, how can GND become the light of righteousness?” Fade felt baffled. “If you are caught cheating, isn’t it natural to be banned even if it is not a public game? If you are not banned for life, what kind of righteousness is it? Can this be raised?”
Coco was calmer than him, “It’s the same problem, but the severity and handling methods of each team are different. What do you care about? In short, there is nothing wrong with staying safe.”
Lin An glanced at He Chen across the dining table.
Hechen was not used to social media yet, so he just clicked on the entry and swiped it twice, then quit after reading the GND announcement.
His expression was as usual, nothing could be seen. Lin An didn’t want to make him unhappy, but just thought about making him happy.
But there are always people who speak faster than Lin An’s actions.
Fade held a bowl and sat next to He Chen, “Hey, let me interview you.”
Lin An paused before standing up, then sat back down again.
“To put it bluntly, Tiger stepped on your face, and now that he is suspended, I see some fans are pointing their fingers at you. Why aren’t you angry?”
“I’m quite angry, but it’s not what you think.” He Chen was also full, but didn’t say anything more.
Lin An’s eyes followed him as he packed up and went upstairs.
Fade didn’t quite understand Hechen’s emotional threshold, but Lin An knew it very well.
What he cares about is not public opinion itself, but the two things of fraud and manipulation of public opinion.
On the other side, Qiao Zhi, who was working, was also sulking.
“Don’t be so embarrassed. They will be able to see it in the competition tomorrow.” Lao Tao advised him.
Qiao Zhi’s anger had no place to express, “Damn it GND, I originally wanted to use the official statement to create a wave of momentum for our Dawn. The video and copy have been prepared for a long time. After all, it is his first appearance, so I can’t show him a good show.”
“It’s okay now. The hot word has become their GND, and the one being praised has become their newbie Missile. My copywriting and videos are no longer needed!”
“Pfft,” Lao Tao could still feel real affection with him in the front, but he couldn’t help but laugh at the last sentence, “The key lies in the back.”
“Nonsense, am I angry about this?” Qiao Zhi said with a grumpy face, “I can’t believe how hot GND is today. I don’t care if he goes out and praises himself. I think he’s a big deal. Is there something serious wrong with him for slandering us?”
Just as he was talking, Lin An opened the door and came in.
“I knocked on the door, but you might have been too excited to hear.” Lin An explained for himself as soon as he came in.
Qiao Zhi’s already irritable mood was even worse now, and even a little firewood placed next to his eyes would set him on fire.
Lin An conveniently took a glass of water and gave it to him, “to pour some heat on him.”
“You have nothing else to do all day long. Just drink water while staring at this person and drink water at that person.” Qiao Zhi’s mouth was indeed a little dry after scolding, so he took the water glass and drank it in one gulp.
Lao Tao saw him replying to other people’s messages on his mobile phone, “What did you find out?”
“Probably similar to Manager Qiao.” Lin An turned his phone around in the palm of his hand, “Missile is very popular in South Korea, and GND has a clear purpose, which is to rely on him to reshuffle the local competition.”
“Shuffle the cards?” Missile doesn’t play many games. Lao Tao has studied the game videos of each group, but he only remembers that he is a pretty good rookie ADC. “What is his strength? Does he have any actual results?”
“I asked someone to find contacts in South Korea and received a video.” Lin An handed the phone to Lao Tao.
“What?” Qiao Zhi’s professional sensitivity came up and he said warily: “Is there anything else I haven’t found?”
The video pixels are average, like screen recordings in an Internet cafe.
On the screen, four characters are fighting fiercely for territory on the map.
“Missile is also a real newcomer in Korea. This matter has not been fermented and not many people know about it.”
“The two ADCs above are…” Old Tao became more and more surprised as he looked at them, “Are they the ones I thought they were?”
“The Butcher’s Knife’s combo was already launched,” Lin An acquiesced, “but it was intercepted by the opponent’s unknown ADC.”
“This ADC is Missile.”
“Isn’t Tu Dao known as the No. 1 ADC in the Korean Division? He also played against Lin An, and it was a tough battle at that time?” Qiao Zhi is no stranger to this ID.
“Although it was an accidental encounter in the platoon, since Missile has the strength of Gangshou Dao, why is this matter so obscure?”
Lin An glanced at him.
“Oh, Tu Dao’s team doesn’t want this matter to come out.” Qiao Zhi’s professionalism came into play again, and he reacted almost immediately. Following this line of thinking, it is not difficult to guess, “The same thing that they don’t want him to expose is GND, who is searching for players. Missile wants to be famous. It is as difficult as the sky, so she can only accept the handkerchief that GND ran away to work abroad.”
“Okay, he does have this strength.” Qiao Zhi took a deep breath after watching the video.
Lao Tao compared the participating members of GND and asked Lin An: “Now against GND, can our winning rate be simulated?”
Lin An said nothing.
In fact, he has already thought of Lao Tao’s concerns and has already asked analysts to conduct schedule simulations based on previous game records.
As for the ending…
Lin An smiled and stood up.
“If you want the ending, you won’t know until after the fight.”
——
Regardless of the conclusion in the conference room, as soon as this incident came out, the FP team members were the first to be affected.
“Is Lao Tao constipated? Why does his face smell so bad?” On the way to the competition venue, Fade glanced at Lao Tao’s face and secretly complained to Coco.
Coco also felt strange, “Today’s opponent is not difficult to beat, right? Is there any temporary situation? Is there any suspense?”
Coco felt like she was in danger, so she took out her mobile phone to watch the game video.
Fade had the feeling of being powerless when he was gossiping about others in high school, and when others turned around and studied hard, he turned around and harassed Venus who was concentrating with her eyes closed.
“Oh, now the opinions of us and GND on the Internet are polarized, and Lao Tao is angry.” Venus’s guess is quite reliable.
“No,” Fade was even more puzzled, “Why is Old Tao so angry? Shouldn’t it be Qiaoqiao who is troubled now?”
“Speaking of which, Manager Qiao is so weird today.” Fade looked wary, “Why is he wearing a suit when the team is in dire straits?”
“It’s okay to wear a suit, but I haven’t washed my hair yet…”
Qiao Zhi still remembered what Lao Tao said yesterday. He didn’t want his condition to affect the players. When he went out today and saw a pair of dark circles under his eyes, he took care to clean them up and scratched his hair with hairspray.
He took a deep breath and said, “Shut up. We’ll compete later, don’t make me whip you now.”
Fade paused for a moment, then quickly changed his target.
“Why didn’t you sleep today?” He Chen’s sleeping look was so deeply rooted in people’s hearts that Fade could not forget it.
He Chen raised his hand and rubbed his neck, frowning slightly in discomfort.
He fell asleep at first, but halfway through his sleep, he suddenly woke up with palpitations in his sleep. Lin An beside him also noticed his sudden movement and patted his shoulder comfortingly.
“Having a nightmare?”
He Chen shook his head, always feeling a little uneasy.
But…what could happen today?
Hechen took out his cell phone.
“You don’t need to be so nervous when playing KT.” Fade felt very irritated when he saw Hechen racing against time to watch KT’s game videos on the road.
“Originally, Coco was the only one who was rewarded by God, and the others were able to live in peace and contentment. This time, we have you and Lay. We were not obvious before, but now we have become negative examples of people who don’t work hard even if they don’t have talent.”
“That’s all right.” Qiao Zhi couldn’t help but give him a slap in the face, “Isn’t it unethical? If you don’t learn it yourself, why don’t you let others learn it.”
“Dawn still trains until nearly three o’clock even though he is sick. Recently, he only has six hours of rest every day.” Lao Tao said, “Is it unfair to say that you are lazy?”
Fade gave He Chen a hateful look, “Tiantianjuan doesn’t sleep yet, and he is prone to acne, enlarged pores, and bad face.”
Then he leaned out of his seat belt and stared at He Chen carefully, trying to see the consequences of staying up late on his face.
Fade looked carefully from top to bottom and almost had to use a magnifying glass to slap him in the face, but finally came back defeated.
Not to mention acne, He Chen’s face can’t even see a single thick pore.
“Why?” Fade touched his face, feeling sore.
The driver became accustomed to listening to their programs every day. He followed the staff’s guidance and drove into the employee-only passage and entered the VIP waiting area of the underground garage.
A staff member was waiting in the parking space holding a sign for the “FP” team.
When Lao Tao got out of the car, he said politely, “Thank you for your hard work.”
After he finished speaking, he turned back to look at the player, so he didn’t notice the man’s slightly trembling hands and unnatural twitching of his facial muscles.
He Chen got out of the car after Coco, and Lin An was the last one.
As soon as he raised his head, his pupils suddenly shrank.
“Be careful—”
Lin An reached out to pull He Chen, but was a step too late.
He Chen was splashed all over by the sweet liquid, and the white part on the team uniform looked like a map. It was terrible to see.
