Glory [e-sports]

Chapter 49.1: You guys met in the last game?

The canyon had four people in it, but Yuan Ze wasn’t the only one there who wanted to die. Kim Sung-hyun was also stunned silly.

Fate was really a strange and wonderful thing.

The fans in the South Korean competition zone who were watching their own oppa’s matches were already high with excitement.

In the last match, Kim Sung-hyun had solo queued and gone up against Wei Xiao. In this match, he also hadn’t immediately gone to form a double queue with Li Heran. He’d continued with his single queue, and Li Heran had also been in the single queue.

Li Heran waited for a long time for a game. Kim Sung-hyun had just finished a match with Wei Xiao and was a little overeager, so he hadn’t thought twice before clicking the match button.

Who could’ve known that they would both enter a game at the same time.

On the FTW side, the teammates who queued at the same time ended up as opponents against each other.

It was different for Pro. The Koi CP was worthy of its reputation, and two single queued teammates could end up being paired up as teammates by the system.

Indeed…

In this doubles match, all four people in the canyon had been in the singles queue. Yet as a result, they were all matched together by the system and entered a doubles game.

This was the magic that could happen in the single queue. Opponents, teammates, forced marriage… anything was possible!

Fans in the South Korean competition zone had already noticed Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran’s ‘marriage line-up despite the distance between them’. They had long since covered the scrolling comments with their excitement. At this time, when they noticed their opponents, they grew even happier.

Enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road!

All the members of the Team of Gods in the winter training’s group A ended up gathered together in this arrangement. It was really…

Absolutely crazy (beautifully done)!

What made it even better was that Kim Sung-hyun had used the storm hunter in the previous round and been pressured and suppressed by the berserker thief and light priest. His heart was stuffed full of anger.

Although he’d won the game, he was very unhappy about being targeted like this by someone from the younger generation.

God Kim’s evil taste was well known. If he was ever targeted by a jungler, he would definitely have to abuse them back.

How did he abuse them? He would first start by recalling the details of the jungler’s operations.

So, in Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran’s hero selection interface (they were unable to see their opponents at this time), Kim Sung-hyun didn’t hesitate at all before choosing the berserker thief.

Li Heran hadn’t played with him in the previous match, but he could still guess the reason for it, “Which berserker thief?”

Kim Sung-hyun: “Quiet.”

Li Heran: “FTW’s new top-lane?”

Kim Sung-hyun: “Yes.”

Li Heran: “You lost?”

Kim Sung-hyun: “How could that be!”

Although he hadn’t lost, Kim Sung-hyun suspected that he would die in the hands of this berserker thief one day. That was why he wanted to preempt him and figure out how Wei Xiao played, so that he could abuse him into crying and wailing during an official match.

Li Heran casually took the light priest.

The compatibility between the light priest and berserker thief was extremely high.

So, after they entered the game, Kim Sung-hyun, who used marksman all year long, had taken the berserker thief.

He didn’t think it was a big deal. Looking at the entire Group A, if he and Li Heran were teamed up together, there was nobody they had to worry about in a doubles game.

Why bully children by using a marksman? It was pretty good to just use a berserker thief.

And then…

Kim Sung-hyun actually wanted to die, “Brother, are my eyes blurred?”

Old Dog Yuan and Close?

What kind of nightmare combination was this?

His vision wasn’t blurry. He must have gone blind!

Li Heran: “……”

Kim Sung-hyun abruptly stood up, “Old Park, come and play a round of berserker thief!”

Pro’s coach pushed him back into his seat, “Play properly.”

Kim Sung-hyun: “……”

Those who often walked near the river would have wet shoes; Kim Sung-hyun had really never thought that he would ‘fear’ a doubles game!

Wei Xiao’s eyes were sharp, “God Kim took the berserker thief, hey, it seemed that my berserker thief made him really happy in the last game.”

Lu Feng stared at the screen and cleared his soldiers, “You guys met in the last game?”

Wei Xiao: “Yes, God Kim is single queuing. I took very good care of him.”

Lu Feng: “Did you win?”

Wei Xiao was annoyed, “We lost. His storm hunter is too good at flying.”

Lu Feng: “Death count?”

Wei Xiao: “Three times.”

Lu Feng: “I’m asking how many times you died.”

“Me? Ah,” Wei Xiao was embarrassed, “Four times.”

Lu Feng: “Mm.”

Wei Xiao was curious about why the captain would ask about this, but then he saw the divine warrior on the screen stack himself up with several layers of buffs. The spear was inserted into the ground outside the enemy’s tower, and Lu Feng spoke a single word to Yuan Ze, “Go.”

Yuan Ze, who’d heard the dialogue between Lu Feng and Wei Xiao over his headset, “……”

Old Kim, you’re on your own!

The death knight was also a top-lane hero, but it had explosive DPS and was a type of talent that Yuan Ze often used.

The death knight and the divine warrior could be considered as the best combination for top-laners in a doubles game.

The divine warrior tended more towards support, while the death knight could provide the DPS. Although there were many combinations that had a natural advantage over this pairing, it wasn’t hard for them to deal with a berserker thief like Kim Sung-hyun.

No matter how fierce of a doubles competition championship pair they were, he’d taken a hero that he wasn’t strong at and could only wait to lose.

Let alone, they also had a top jungler, Close, who knew how to abuse a berserker thief even with his eyes closed.

Yuan Ze charged into the tower and landed a set of skills on Kim Sung-hyun.

Kim Sung-hyun cursed, “Stinky thing!”

Although he wasn’t familiar with the berserker thief, a professional player’s game consciousness was deeply ingrained. With Li Heran’s protection, Kim Sung-hyun wasn’t so bad that he would be killed beneath his own tower at the start of the game.

That was what he thought…

And his movements had been quite good.

He should be able to maintain his little life.

The divine warrior’s spear that was left outside the tower suddenly moved. As a functional top-lane talent spec, the divine warrior exchanged a portion of his DPS in return for a long-distance, ranged attack.

From the moment the spear landed, the divine warrior could initiate an ultimate move.

Kim Sung-hyun’s nerves were stretched taut, “Not good!”

Years of experience with getting cut down had long nurtured his powerful instincts.

The spear split into three, passing through Yuan Ze’s body and stabbing straight at Kim Sung-hyun.

First Blood!

Kim Sung-hyun toppled over.

The live broadcast channel was going crazy.

“What a handsome divine warrior!”

“Daddy Close is online, teaching me how to play the divine warrior!”

“Awesome! This ultimate move’s timing wasn’t off at all. It was completely accurate, and the key point is that he’d accurately predicted the berserker thief’s position.”

“I can understand it, but I can’t do it. Bye bye.”

“About that… did you notice that the divine warrior’s ultimate move passed through God Yuan and charged at God Kim? It seemed like it was one spear that shot through both people.”

“…………”

“……”

Inside the canyon, a hero’s abilities wouldn’t cause direct direct damage to its teammates and would only travel straight through.

Yuan Ze was shot by the divine warrior’s spear and didn’t lose a single bit of health, but as he sat there in front of the computer…

He could feel Little Close’s killing intent.

Cough……

Old Dog Yuan’s heart was hollow.

The game was half over. Kim Sung-hyun had died four times, no more, no less.

These four kills had all been taken by Lu Feng.

Yuan Ze tsked and said, “How indulgent.”

Close was clearly targeting Kim Sung-hyun for revenge, getting back at him for killing Quiet four times.

Lu Feng was wearing a headset, and the people beside him couldn’t hear Yuan Ze’s words.

Lu Feng ignored him.

Yuan Ze realized that the words he’d said couldn’t be heard by anyone else, so he typed instead, “Your divine warrior is pretty good.”

Lu Feng replied coolly, “Mm.”

Wei Xiao, who was sitting to the side, saw this and spoke loudly, “Stronger than yours!”

Yuan Ze: “……” This little bastard!

Yuan Ze continued to type, “Aren’t you going to go queue? What are you looking over here for?”

Wei Xiao was afraid that Yuan Ze wouldn’t be able to hear him. He came closer to Lu Feng, and practically stuck himself up against Lu Feng’s cheek to speak into his headset, “I’m following the captain to learn how to play the divine warrior.” His voice was very proud, and he didn’t hide his flamboyant behavior at all.

Lu Feng’s fingertips trembled, but he didn’t even blink as he blocked Yuan Ze’s words.

Glory had a system that allowed users to block messages. Sometimes, when players encountered mouth cannon kings, they could directly and unilaterally block their messages so that they were out of sight, out of mind.

Of course this blocking was equivalent to shielding. Lu Feng couldn’t see Yuan Ze’s words, but that didn’t mean that Yuan Ze wasn’t still talking.

Yuan Ze typed, “How about you come to L&P and learn from me.”

Old Dog Yuan was teasing little children in order to balance his mentality, “When big brother started playing the divine warrior, your captain wasn’t even as old as you are now.”

His keyboard clacked as he typed out a whole bunch, but there was no action from Wei Xiao on the other side. Yuan Ze clicked open the economic stats panel and took a look…

Oh, he’d been blocked by Close.

Ummm.
