When Jing, an esports legend, died on the day he won the championship, his only regret was not seeing his rival Lu Zhiye cry tears of agony after finding out Jing was the champion.
Unexpected...
Chapter 41 Jinjiang novel reading exclusive is amazing. ...
There was silence in the SFD spectator stands.
"Did I make the wrong choice?" Jiang Yuan finally uttered a trembling voice.
Zhou Li-an: "Uh, not really. Even if Sweet made the wrong choice, the captain wouldn't make the same mistake with him, right?"
And Lu Zhiye was the last choice.
His hero interface could be clearly seen on the big screen. Lu Zhiye didn't even choose the hero immediately. He stayed on the vital point for two seconds before locking on it.
To say that it was a slip of the hand would be a bit of a stretch.
"Then... two damage dealers playing two support heroes..." Jiang Yuan's expression gradually lost control. "Coach, is this some secret tactic you arranged?"
Everyone turned their attention to Coach Wan. Even Song Jiahang, who usually kept his composure, turned his head. At that moment, Coach Wan became the hope of the entire village.
Coach Wan: “…”
For the first time, Coach Wan doubted his own coaching skills: "What tactics do you think can select Luoba and Mingmai?"
Not only are they supports, they are also the two least offensive heroes among all supports.
Let alone competition, these two are practically walking punching bags in high-end ranked games. They also regenerate health, are durable, and don't fight back.
In just a few words, the third round had already begun.
Shi Jing and Lu Zhiye landed at a standard resource point, and the two support heroes jumped to the upper left corner of the map together.
The contestants were far away from the audience, and the competition used the strong noise-isolating headphones used on airplanes. Even so, Lu Zhiye could vaguely hear the heat waves from the audience.
The last time such a grand occasion occurred... was last year's World Championship.
In the first match of the four-player tournament, EVG-Zeit used a new hero transformation and crushed the other teams that had not yet figured out how to combine this hero with the system.
Today, after such a long time, Shi Jing chose a support hero again in the version where everyone had two breakthrough positions.
"No matter what, the two heroes SFD picked have at least won in terms of attracting attention," Commentator A said with a smile. "Listening to the crowd's cheers, I feel like everyone's probably as shocked as I am."
Commentator B: "It's not just the audience. The camera just showed SFD's support, Source, and he looked shocked too."
"Hahahaha, what? Isn't this a pre-planned strategy?" Commentator A laughed. "Oh no! It looks to me like SFD's coach isn't even aware of this. SFD's duo queue results haven't been great in previous years, but they've finally managed to place near the top these past few games. Sweet, stop messing around."
Sweet is very silent.
From the beginning, he didn't say a word. He didn't speak when he landed. He picked up three special move charging books frantically, slammed a big move into the ground, and started stealing equipment everywhere.
When the commentator and director's attention was attracted by several teams fighting in the big city, Shi Jing used Luoba's ultimate skill, the store, and in less than a minute, he got a set of purple accessories that took two circles to complete after landing.
One minute and twenty seconds later, Shi Jing finally said the first sentence in the team voice chat: "Lu Zhiye, there's Zipeng here, do you want to fight?"
The Zibeng, originally known as the Charge Rifle, fires energy bullets, each shot making a long "zi" sound before bouncing into the target, earning it the nickname "Zibeng" from players. Because the noise is so noticeable, it easily draws aggro.
But most importantly, while this gun is called a rifle, it's essentially a sniper. Its recharge time is even longer than the Sentinel's, and it uses randomized trajectory. While it can be incredibly accurate, it's generally just a bit of a sniper.
Lu Zhiye stood next to the ultimate skill shop opened by Shi Jing: "Can we fight?"
"?" Shi Jing was puzzled by his question, "Why not?"
He remembered that Lu Zhiye would fight.
"You haven't said anything." Lu Zhiye said, and took out the rechargeable rifle in his hand, "I thought you didn't want me to play sniper."
Shi Jing: “…”
Shi Jing: "You followed me and chose support, how could you resist not playing sniper?"
Shi Jing didn't take the Power Boy, but instead took the auxiliary Roba. The reason was very simple.
Smurf doesn't deserve it.
He wanted to let EVG know that even with the weakest support hero, he could still beat their proud new breakthrough player to the ground.
Very crazy idea.
But he is the current situation.
However, Shi Jing did not expect that Lu Zhiye would follow behind and lock his lifeline.
To be honest, Shi Jing was stunned when he saw Lu Zhiye choosing a wet nurse.
He immediately realized that Lu Zhiye had guessed his thoughts.
Since we have decided to use the support position to slap others in the face, why not be thorough and use two support positions?
Double humiliation.
For some reason, when this thought popped into his mind, Shi Jing felt very happy.
I can’t describe how cool it is.
There is no need to say much, the feeling is relaxed both physically and mentally.
Thinking of this, Shi Jing glanced at Lu Zhiye, who was also fully equipped, and his mood improved a lot. "I didn't say anything, I was memorizing the map."
During the one minute of searching for equipment, Shi Jing memorized the landing points of all other teams as quickly as possible.
And planned a perfect harvesting route for them.
Lu Zhiye’s vitals glanced at him.
"Two teams jumped to the Tiangou, four teams jumped to the Lava Siphon, one team is in the landslide, and another team is at the overlooking point." Shi Jing easily reported the location of most teams, "The rest are in the direction of the Lava Siphon."
Mark the two unlucky guys closest to them on the map.
Shi Jing slid out and leaped into the air: "The two teams should have finished fighting and are now searching for the remaining supplies. There are high-level loot in the gutter, and they won't be willing to come out until they find it."
And this will be the worst decision this team has ever made.
The two players from EVG chose double breakthroughs, with the same configuration as the traditional team, Power Boy and Ash.
Two heroes with high mobility can almost have absolute dominance in this large plain map.
"That new guy from SFD is definitely overhyped," said Blood, EVG's second-place player on Ashe. "In this map, they picked two supports, and I can't imagine how they can win."
EVG-Smurf has always had close contact with domestic teams, and can understand most of the basic communication. The phrases involving names are even easier to understand: "It must be because he's too inexperienced on the field. It's his first BO5 match, so he's a bit nervous."
EVG's second player: "His hands are shaking. Is Wild shaking too?"
"Wild saw the newbie take Loba and didn't want to play anymore." Smurf laughed. "Don't worry, they'll appear in the upper right corner soon."
The upper right corner is the kill broadcast area of Apex.
Smurf was right.
Shi Jing and Lu Zhiye did appear on the broadcast.
Just in the opposite way.
Commentator A: "What's going on? I just watched the five-team brawl in Lava Siphon, and now SFD is killing each other in the ditch?"
The report in the upper right corner continued as Shi Jing, operating Luo Ba, used his escape ring to throw it directly into someone's face, unexpectedly turning it into a charge. And the enemy hero he latched onto...was playing a shield man.
"Shield Man was being chased and attacked by Loba? Where's your shield? He's just a support hero, and you have eight hundred more shields than him! Wait, that's not right—" Commentator B was stunned. "Holy shit, he really had to run. How much damage did Sweet deal with one shot? 160???"
The commentator's shock was still stuck in his throat as the slender support hero leaped over two boxes in a row, not giving the shield man even the slightest chance to escape. A single shot from the Peacekeeper shattered his armor, dealing full damage, and then quickly switched to another parallel rifle.
“Da da da da—”
All headshots.
The shield man was killed instantly along with his shield.
After finishing this set of attacks, the teleportation CD of the ring in Shi Jing's hand was ready again, and he even had time to teleport to the other person who was shot twice in the head by Lu Zhiye to give him the last shot.
"Bang!"
Two kills popped out.
Shi Jing didn't even look at it and immediately used a new ultimate move.
"The store is open!" Roba's voice was joyful and melodious.
All the spoils lay quietly inside.
He doesn't even need to spend time searching for equipment.
"ah?"
In the spectator seats, Jiang Yuan was stunned.
At the same time he uttered "Ah", the comments in the live broadcast room of the game were all flooded with "Ah?" and question marks.
Jiang Yuan: "Can Luoba still play like this?"
Isn't the ring for escaping? He always used it as a last resort. When all his teammates died, he would throw the ring away and run away, trying to save his life first, and then use the auxiliary passive skill to revive his teammates.
damn it.
Can you throw it at the enemy's face?
"I said I'd come to see the support you guys play in the breakthrough position, I'm sure I'll learn something new." A voice suddenly came from the side.
Jiang Yuan: "? Why the hell are you here?"
It is LA's auxiliary.
He propped up his chin and said, "I'm here to learn. Two of your team's breakthrough masters have become supports. If you don't work hard and learn a little, I'm afraid you'll be out of a job tomorrow."
Jiang Yuan: “…”
The person on the stage had no idea that his actions were being broadcast on the big screen, nor did he know that he had caused a sense of crisis among the support players.
After getting the first wave of equipment, the rest of the game will return to simple mode.
Along the way, we defeated three teams that came to us without knowing the consequences, and a new kill report came out.
【SFD-Wild knocked down EVG-Blood.】
Shi Jing: “?”
He looked back and saw that Lu Zhiye had found a high spot to set up his gun. He was holding the Zibang that he had stolen from his ultimate skill store and was hitting people hard in the area where the lava siphon was hitting the hardest.
The "sizzling" and "buzzing" sounds of the bullets brushed past his ears one after another.
Shi Jing: “…”
I have to say, this gun is really hateful.
It was so loud, like a long-range anti-aircraft gun.
The key is that the damage is still very considerable.
If Shi Jing saw correctly, in the few seconds he noticed, Lu Zhiye fired three shots, and not a single one missed.
The farther away, the higher the damage of the zibong. From them to the lava siphon, that shot does at least 110.
Three shots and even the red-armored one would die.
"That man has been pulled up." Shi Jing put away the high-powered scope, "Stop it, let's go for close combat."
From a distance, Shi Jing caused a wave of chaos to the remaining fighting team over there. He threw another ring towards the area with the most people and rushed directly there.
Lava Siphon is the largest resource point in the World's End map and the center of the entire map.
From the scramble for high-level resources at the beginning to the refresh of the safe zone at the end, all battles are inseparable from this urban area.
"EVG got outmaneuvered by Wild's sniper, but luckily everyone was in a bad state and no one could come up to help him, so he got back up. It's okay," said Commentator A. "Wow, it's only been four circles, and there are only five teams left?"
Unknowingly, SFD wiped out the two teams from the direction of Tiangou, and then took down a team that came out from the epicenter and tried to eat them but was eaten instead, and then took down the team that came out from the west of the landslide and debris, and already had ten kills in their hands.
"They still have two red armors," commentator B said. "Although HUN and LA started out using Lava Siphon, all the other teams played quite conservatively. Both sides still have purple armors. EVG only has Smurf with red armor, and Blood's purple armor isn't even half full."
Commentator A swallowed his words and said, "I have a hunch..."
Before he could finish, the person on the screen had already moved.
Shi Jing's ring "dingled" and drew a very beautiful arc in the air, landing accurately on the heads of the two EVG people in the defense area.
Smurf had just rescued someone and was in relatively good condition. When he heard footsteps above his head, he froze for a moment and immediately raised his gun and fired at his head.
No one.
Waiting for him were two black circles.
Fragmentation grenade.
"boom--"
The glass of the windows on both sides of the house was shattered, and the door was blown away directly. Smurf's half-magazine of bullets hit the empty space.
He was no pushover either, and immediately turned around and slid towards the goal.
"Bang!"
A shot in the head.
The Peacekeeper's shotgun bullets scattered over his head like fireworks, and his armor was immediately destroyed as soon as they hit him.
Smurf raised his head to face the newcomer with his gun. His years of aiming skills had made him very good. He pulled the crosshairs quickly and smoothly, and in the blink of an eye he had the gun on the headshot line.
But the times are not here.
There is nothing in front of me.
My blood was congealed all over my body.
"Buzz."
Very light movement.
familiar.
But not that familiar.
It was the sound of the ring teleportation of Loba, the support hero he had never taken seriously, falling to the ground.
"Behind you——" Number Two only had time to shout a few syllables.
The next moment, Smurf's screen turned red.
The character falls directly to the ground.
There was no gunfight.
There was no confrontation.
There was no back-and-forth duel.
He didn't even guess Shi Jing's location correctly once during the whole process.
This is a complete crush of consciousness.
Realizing this, Smurf placed his hands on the keyboard, staring blankly at the screen in front of him as it turned from dying to gray, and then to elimination.
He was defeated by a newcomer using a support hero.
"That's impossible..." A murmur in his native language floated out of his mouth.
On the other side, the two elite players from LA thought they had caught the opportunity, so they calmly started a fight with SFD and EVG, and quickly attacked the small team next to them with only one person left, and ambushed HUN who was in a bad state.
Just as they were about to take the scene standing on EVG-Smurf from behind——
With a "whoosh", a huge shadow fell towards LA captain LEO.
"Fuck!" LEO cursed, "When did Wild start doing this kind of dirty stuff??"
Lu Zhiye used his ultimate move.
Summons a short warehouse, which contains parts and equipment supplies for the entire team.
But this ultimate move falls from the sky and causes falling damage. If you stand directly below it, you will be killed on the spot.
LEO was not dead, but he was just a thin skin left. Lu Zhiye easily shot him in the head and sent LA away.
【Defenders! 】
The settlement interface and the announcement that Shi Jing had become the kill king flashed up at the same time.
The two commentators still felt like they were in a dream.
"Is this the power of a newcomer?" Commentator B said absentmindedly. "If it weren't for that big sign in front of me, I might have thought that last wave was a solo demonstration. So... are his Loba and Lifeline skills really that strong?"
Commentator A: "...Could it be a sudden flash of inspiration, an extraordinary performance? Smurf's strength has been evident to everyone in previous league matches. A two-player match... shouldn't be that bad."
Whether it was an exceptional performance or not, the next two games quickly gave him the answer.
In the fourth game, Shi Jing still took Luoba and jumped into the lava siphon as soon as he landed. It was obvious that he was going to find someone to fight. Lu Zhiye also used a pistol. The two of them fought four people in a row smoothly and effortlessly.
The Red Armor team started the game with another massacre. This time, two EVG players couldn't even survive the third circle.
In the last game, Smurf didn't know if he was knocked unconscious, but he was killed by an unknown small team in the first wave, and he didn't even have the chance to meet Shi Jing again.
After all five games were played, Shi Jing once again broke his kill record.
The director understands traffic very well. In the last two games, he frequently gave SFD the first-person perspective, either cutting to Lu Zhiye or Shi Jing. The barrage of comments started to flash, "Just arrived, is this SFD-Sweet's personal live broadcast room?"
The shouts from the audience were getting louder and louder.
It really has a great show effect.
What's going on with using support heroes to target the breakthrough positions of all the top domestic teams?
Shi Jing packed up his backpack and walked off the stage. Several entertainment reporters who were at the forefront of the scene couldn't control themselves anymore and pointed their cameras and microphones at Shi Jing's face.
"Sweet, is your choice of Roba a new tactic?"
"Will you continue to play support in SFD in the future?"
"I won the game with Roba. Anything you want to say? Sweet——"
The SFD and security personnel at the competition site who arrived stopped the entertainment reporters from coming back. Lu Zhiye also took a few steps forward, but Shi Jing grabbed the microphone of one of them instead.
The one who asked the last question.
"Of course I do." The young man's face was indifferent, his bangs slightly covering his eyebrows. He raised his head and looked at the camera indifferently.
Shi Jing originally wanted to make a mockery.
But suddenly I felt it was meaningless.
EVG's new breakthrough player is too fragile.
It was so easy, he hadn't even really exerted any strength yet.
So thinking this in his heart, Shi Jing also said nonchalantly: "The fight is quite boring."
Everyone:"?"
"Why is it boring? Can you explain it in detail?"
“Twenty clubs can’t find one capable penetration player,” he drawled nonchalantly.
The entertainment reporter was also quite adventurous, and seeing an opportunity, he spoke rapidly, "Not having even one is a bit arrogant, isn't it? Coach EVG has publicly stated that he wants to train another world-class penetration player."
"Then he should stop harming others and retire early." Shi Jing said coldly.
The reporter paused for half a second: "Okay, is there anything else you want to say?"
"No, oh, I suggest Smurf change his name, it's not suitable for him." Shi Jing said, "But today's game is indeed very Smurf."
As soon as the words fell, the whole audience was in an uproar.
"Fuck?"
"Candy is awesome!!"
"No buddy, who allowed you to act like that? You're so handsome!"
"Smurf: In online games, it refers to frying fish and bullying weak players."
——The SFD spectators howled in unison. Jiang Yuan searched for the Chinese explanation of the word and read it out loud, but was slammed back into his seat by the fat manager with a tablet.
After Shi Jing finished speaking, he did not stay any longer. He pulled the shoulder strap of his backpack and walked towards the lounge without looking back.
They came back quickly and there was no one inside.
Shi Jing put away the peripherals and turned around——
He almost bumped into the person behind him.
"you……"
Lu Zhiye was standing very close to Shi Jing, and his words were stuck when his eyes met his black pupils.
The lights in the lounge were off.
Lu Zhiye was half a head taller than him.
From this angle, Shi Jing could clearly see his long drooping eyelashes, deep brow bones, and the rich dark color in his pupils.
There seemed to be some emotion flashing in it, hidden too deeply, passing too quickly and too unfamiliarly, and the scene had never been seen before and could not be captured.
Lu Zhiye suddenly raised his hand.
It was too close, Shi Jing subconsciously rolled his eyes and tilted his head back.
Two seconds.
A very light touch fell on his forehead.
Like a dragonfly skimming the water.
He touched the side of his face again.
Lu Zhiye brushed off a strand of hair that was stuck to his face.
The warm touch of the fingertips left, and Shi Jing opened his eyes again.
"Shi Jing." Lu Zhiye was heard whispering, "How amazing."
