Guan Xiaonan said, "Let's go check it out. Once the exams are over, the Deep Internet Cafe will definitely be packed to the brim."
"You're not going shopping?"
Guan Xiaonan giggled, "If I can snag a championship title, I can give shopping a miss!"
Ye Xiao was taken aback, not having realized that Guan Xiaonan was such a die-hard fan of League of Legends. Anyway, it was all in good fun, so it didn't matter where they went.
Ye Xiao had played League of Legends too. He had started on the US servers, and those were truly wonderful times, especially that heart-stopping tournament...
Ye Xiao and Guan Xiaonan entered the Deep Internet Cafe. By now, it was already quite crowded. Just as they walked in, a network manager greeted them with a smile, "Are you two here for regular internet access, or are you participating in the League of Legends competition?"
Without speaking, Guan Xiaonan immediately asked, "Can anyone join the competition?"
"Yes!"
"Well then, I'm in. How about you, Ye Xiao?" Guan Xiaonan looked at Ye Xiao.
"Just for some casual play!"
So, Ye Xiao and Guan Xiaonan were allocated a connected double seat. At that moment, on the largest wall of the internet cafe, there was a big screen showing the Valoran heroes currently in battle!
It was a fight without suspense—why without suspense? Because, at that moment, the score had already reached 72:26!
What was more astonishing was that the game had just started less than twenty-five minutes ago.
At this point, the red team's heroes had just slain the Baron and then began to push mid-lane unanimously. The blue team clearly saw the red team's intention and hurriedly gathered all their heroes, defending in front of the turret near the mid-lane's inhibitor. There were originally three turrets in the mid-lane, and now only the one in front of the inhibitor remained. If this turret were to be taken down as well, the mid-lane would be completely compromised!
The two teams faced off in front of the turret for about thirty seconds when suddenly, the red team's Sword Saint, whether by a mistake or not, ventured into the turret's attack range. The Sword Saint had very low Qi-Blood, being a squishy champion, so the turret immediately targeted him. More surprisingly, after being hit by the turret, the Sword Saint didn't move at all. Seizing the opportunity, blue team's Magma Giant and De Ma quickly rushed towards him. But just as these two heroes reached the Sword Saint's position, he vanished in a blink!
Flash!
However, right then, the red team's heroes who had been lurking outside the turret's range coordinated an attack, pouncing like tigers onto De Ma and the Magma Giant. Their Qi-Blood plummeted, and before they could react, they were taken out!
These two heroes were essentially the blue team's tanks. Now without their tanks, the blue team was left with only three ADCs. Without the protection of tanks, the ADCs instantly turned useless.
With a single Magic Arrow, the red team's Frost Archer skillfully pinned down two of the blue team's ADCs. At the same time, the red team's melee champions rushed past the turret and quickly reached these two ADCs, and in an instant, they were taken down. At the same time, the Sword Saint reappeared rapidly, charging at the last fleeing Sorceress. 'Alpha Strike' was executed, closing the gap to the Sorceress, and before she could cast her ultimate, she was instantly eliminated!
Team wipeout!
Tower destroyed!
In just under a minute, by the time the blue team's champions had respawned, their base had already exploded!
This was a steamroller-style offensive!
"This Sword Saint sure is cunning!" Guan Xiaonan exclaimed, as she watched the big screen, utterly amazed.
Ye Xiao chuckled, "It was too risky. What if they had the Tiny Master of Evil on the other side? Things could've turned around in an instant, right?"
Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Guan Xiaonan smilingly turned to him, "Huh? From the way you speak, you sound pretty professional. Did you use to play frequently?"
"It's been a long time since I've played. I'm totally out of practice!" Ye Xiao said with a wry smile.
Guan Xiaonan, full of pride, said, "No worries, I'll carry you to godlike status!"
"What a domineering tone!" At that moment, a young man with average looks and dyed yellow hair approached Guan Xiaonan with a smile.
Guan Xiaonan cast a disdainful glance at the young man who was clearly a hooligan.
Ignoring him, Ye Xiao chuckled and also turned a blind eye to the young man, saying, "Wonder when we'll get our turn."
Ye Xiao and Guan Xiaonan paid no attention to the hooligan, who immediately looked displeased. With someone as stunning as Guan Xiaonan, the hooligan naturally did not want to back down, so Ye Xiao, sitting next to this goddess, instantly became the target of the hooligan's animosity!
"Kid, stand up for me!" the young thug glared at Ye Xiao and immediately shouted angrily!
Ye Xiao looked at the young thug and said with a smile, "Excuse me, big brother, is there something wrong?"
"Damn it, I told you to stand up, did you hear me?" the young thug shouted angrily, ready to circle around and grab Ye Xiao by his collar!
Ye Xiao didn't speak, but Guan Xiaonan was immediately very upset. She just wanted to come out and play for a while—why was someone causing trouble? Were they deliberately spoiling her mood?
Guan Xiaonan immediately stood up, grabbed the young thug's wrist, and said coldly, "You'd better scram, or else I'll make you regret it!"
As she spoke, Guan Xiaonan exerted force on her hand, and the young thug felt a piercing pain in his wrist, sweat pouring down his forehead. Clearly, he was very surprised by how strong Guan Xiaonan's grip was.
Seeing this, Ye Xiao, who had come today to play games and not to cause trouble, quickly stood up. With a smile, he said to the thug, "Sorry, my girlfriend has learned Taekwondo, so, you probably can't beat her. You'd better not trouble us here!"
Guan Xiaonan then let go of the thug's wrist. Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, the thug finally realized what was going on. Having learned Taekwondo, that kind of strength was probably normal.
"Kid, I didn't see it coming. Turns out you're a wimp, needing a woman to protect you. If you dare, come out and face me!" the young thug glared at Ye Xiao, clearly wanting to beat Ye Xiao up to vent his frustrations.
However, Ye Xiao was different from others. Whereas most people would make a great effort to prove themselves in front of their girlfriends, after hearing the thug's contemptuous words, Ye Xiao just sat on the sofa and said nonchalantly, "A wimp still has balls. Having a girlfriend to protect me is enough for me."
Shameless!
Utterly shameless!
The young thug had always believed he himself was shameless, but now he truly understood there were levels to it—there was shamelessness beyond his own sort!
A man actually content to be protected by a woman!
"Fine, kid, you're tough," the frustrated thug left.
Once the young thug had left, Xiaonan burst into laughter.
Ye Xiao immediately turned to look at Xiaonan, puzzled, "What's so funny?"
"You're asking me what's funny? Of course, I'm laughing at you. How can you be so shameless? Do you realize that you're showing off?" she said.
Ye Xiao replied proudly, "If I had it, I wouldn't need to show off!"
If I had it, I wouldn't need to show off... if I had anything...
Xiaonan glared at Ye Xiao, and just then, an employee at the Deep Internet Café began to announce, "Now, players at computers 077, 078, 099, 112, 151, please make your way to the Billijovot District and seek out the Deep Space. Currently, the champions of Deep Space are the players at computers 01, 02, 03, 04, 05. If these five players win one more match, they will be today's champions!"
That was when Ye Xiao realized that his and Xiaonan's computer numbers were precisely '077' and '078'.
Clearly, it was their battle now!
Expertly entering the Billijovot area, Ye Xiao had played there before, although he had only been a level 5 smurf account, with an extremely showy name 'Born to be Super God'!
Xiaonan took a glance at Ye Xiao's screen and, upon seeing the name of his character, immediately looked at Ye Xiao. Clearly, her look said that the name was the epitome of showing off!
However, Xiaonan didn't voice it out because she feared that if she did, Ye Xiao might say something not suitable for children.
They joined the match in the Deep Space lobby. On the opposing side were five people, all with Aoshi at the start of their names. Clearly, they must be a League of Legends family, named 'Aoshi Heavenly God', 'Aoshi Water God', 'Aoshi Fire God', 'Aoshi Thunder God', 'Aoshi Wind God' respectively—very imposing names. Indeed, they were demonstrating the presence befitting conquerors. The previous battle was won by the Aoshi family, and the Sword Saint from before was Aoshi Wind God.
After entering, Ye Xiao glanced at Xiaonan and noticed she didn't look too happy.
"What's wrong?" Ye Xiao asked, clearly not understanding why she looked upset when they were about to play League of Legends.
Xiaonan frowned, "We probably won't win. I've heard of the Aoshi family. All five players are really strong. And the most important thing is, they are sitting together—basically a full-team. I don't know how strong the other three are, so now it's like two of us against five."
Hearing Xiaonan's words, Ye Xiao laughed and said, "Let's just play and see. Maybe, we'll get lucky and win? That's possible, right?"
"There isn't that much luck. I'm starting to want to give up!" Xiaonan said, "I don't want to get beaten like the previous blue side!"
Ye Xiao looked at Xiaonan and said earnestly, "This is a team competition game. You can't give up until the very end. Maybe, you can turn things around with the last move. Aren't there many examples of that? Besides, didn't you say you were going to take me to Super God?"
