Lu Sicheng, resting his chin on one hand, was deep in thought with his eyes cast down. Xiao Rui, meanwhile, was still mumbling behind him-- --josei
“Anyway, I still can’t understand why Ah Tai’s strategy of ‘using your specialized champion to defeat you’ works so well with all you professional players? …...It worked on Niu god before, and the same to Tong Yao today. Wouldn’t it make more sense that it would be even more upsetting if someone defeated you while you were using your specialized champion?”
“Is it that difficult to understand?”
Lu Sicheng played around with the mouse-- --
“It’s because when you play a champion well, it means that you not only know about the champion’s abilities and capabilities well, it also includes your understanding of the whole game. Therefore, once you’re defeated……”
“What happens then?”
“Let me put it this way, suppose you’re always good at English growing up, superior than all the people around you, even the English teachers. You’re always in all the school activities and speech contests, even becoming a legend in English studies in the whole city-- --Until one day, you’re invited to attend a national English summer camp and discovered that everyone in the camp is at least as good as you. There are occasions that you can’t even understand what some of them are saying. Just as you are feeling overwhelmed, they turn around to laugh at you: How did you even qualify to be in this summer camp?”
“......”
“What are you going to do?”
“......”
“By contrast, if it’s a group of people speaking different languages attending a gathering and there’s one person who speaks German well who can communicate with others much better than you, how would you feel? You probably would just think: This person speaks great German and it’s none of my business. It’s just because English isn’t as popular as German here.”
“Uhm, if you put it that way……”
“Therefore, Leblanc to that shorty is probably a-- --”
Before he could finish, Xiao Rui’s cell phone began to ring. Lu Sicheng gestured that he could go and answer his phone. Xiao Rui answered the phone and walked away-- --
After 5 minutes, he came back.
The team manager kicked the team captain’s chair. “Are you free?”
Lu Sicheng replied with a poker face, “I’m very busy. I have to fight 300 rounds with all those retards on Tieba……”
Xiao Rui: “Why did you change your id?”
Lu Sicheng: “Last one got banned.”
Xiao Rui: “......What did you post to get banned. Ahh, nevermind, comrade captain, I just received a phone call. It was from the Mid of the team next door to inform us that our team’s Mid is dead drunk and it’s impossible for him and his girlfriend to get her back-- --They can’t even drag her away from the bar-- --They need someone to help them now……”
“What does it mean by dead drunk?”
“She’s drunk. Your Chinese is terrible!”
“Are they at a bar?”
“Yes.”
“Does that bar not want to do business anymore?” Lu Sicheng got up to pick up his jacket. “They even sold liquor to an underaged person.”
Xiao Rui shrugged and quickly told him the name of the bar. It was close to their base. It was a decent place where many esports clubs nearby would go there for gatherings or celebration parties. It was within walking distance from the ZGDX and YQCB bases-- --
Lu Sicheng didn’t drive but walked over there.
…...Actually, the main reason was because he was afraid that she would throw up in his car. Since it was impossible to reason with a drunk or throw her into the Huangpu River-- --Lu Sicheng figured that he didn’t want to have this kind of hassle drive him crazy.
……
While Lu Sicheng was on his way to the bar, ZGDX’s Mid was happily sitting inside the bar without knowing that the king of hell of their team was on his way over. She was holding a glass with amber colored liquid inside in one hand and playing her cell phone on the other hand-- --
The light from the cell phone screen reflected on her red face. She slightly squinted, looking at those sneering postings on the Tieba while sipping the drink in her hand……
When the amber liquid was gone once more, she put the glass down with the other 5 identically shaped glasses in front of her and raised her hand with her neck stretched out, “Bartender, give me another iced tea!”
“What iced tea! It’s Long Island Iced Tea, you country bumpkin!” The girl, who was tall and pretty, sitting next to her nervously pushed Tong Yao’s raised arm down while trying to cover Tong Yao’s mouth at the same time. “I’ll go to the supermarket to buy iced tea if you want to drink it. I’ll buy a whole case! If one case isn’t enough, I’ll buy two. Just keep your mouth shut!”
“I won’t”
“You’re drunk.”
“I’m not drunk. How can iced tea make me drunk.” Tong Yao giggled and turned to hold her girlfriend’s face with both her hands. She burped, her breath heavy with alcohol. “Iced tea makes me feel blessed, iced tea makes me happy.”
