Because of his "careless words", Zhou Yanjun was misunderstood by the innocent and straightforward Lin Mingfei who had just confirmed their relationship and was afraid that something serious would happen. She pressed her head against the table and abused him for at least ten minutes.
The group qualifiers were nearing their end, and audience expectations had waned, with some feeling a bit weary. However, a temporary change in the schedule created an opportunity for an early showdown between the new and old champion teams, Sabretooth and Polaris, which reignited the discussion.
Sabretooth fans and Polaris fans were all fired up, bickering and arguing online until Polaris' official Weibo account suddenly released a few photos with the caption: "Band of Brothers."
The picture shows a private room filled with people having fun. The photos were taken from different angles and are obviously candid shots. The expressions and movements of these people are vivid, and they are either laughing or playing lively.
Fans from both sides of the comment section were dumbfounded.
[Damn, was the official account hacked? Are they still playing the AI face-swapping game?!]
[What's the point of changing their faces? Even if they don't have faces, I can still recognize them just by looking at their stylish and high-end uniforms. It must be me, the Sabretooth Tiger!]
I don't even need a uniform, I can just recognize the face? My team P's looks are the best in the league, unmatched.
What does this mean?! Is Polaris treating the saber-toothed tiger to a meal? Is the weasel wishing the chicken a happy new year?
[What the hell is this hypocrisy!!! Tigers, please don't eat their food!!!]
This is the internet-famous pizza place in City C! I've been there! The private rooms are decorated like this! Sabertooth Tigers are coming to City C for a competition, right? Team P should be throwing a welcome party for them, right?
[Team P is so generous? Sabertooth Tiger fans upstairs, get out of here.]
[Are you stupid? Right? Are you stupid? We're a team of brothers, and you're fighting like it's real.]
[Didn't the Sabretooth Tigers already know that they were a brother team when they were collectively sending enema to Team P during their last Weibo interaction? [Funny]]
[Sabertooth Tiger fans can't help but believe it.]
They believed it, and they even said Polaris was climbing the social ladder. Damn it.
[Haha! Our Hu Hu rushed over to treat us to a meal as soon as we arrived. Isn't that just paying for it? Are you trying to ride on the popularity? Outdated team!]
[Don't chat with idiots, girls, hurry up and appreciate the gorgeous looks of your brothers and sisters! ! ]
Blink is so cute sitting next to God Z! Aa ...
[Wow, is it really confirmed that they're the male model team?! Fatty Zhou's outfit is fucking new, right? He doesn't even look fat anymore!?!]
Are P fans blind? The legs of the table next to Fire are fucking bent, and you're still praising them?
......
Fans always have something to start a fight about, and then they started a bloody fight over the question of "Polaris only edited his own teammates' photos and they're just plastic brothers."
The number of comments under this status on the official Weibo account quickly exceeded 10,000, and some people discovered some different points.
Did I miss something in the photo? Why are there only four Sabertooth Tigers? Where's God D?
Netizens are all clever little people, and usually a clue can lead to many hidden highlights.
[Oh, I turned up the brightness on the photo. I didn't see God D either, so he probably didn't follow them, right?]
[By the way, I feel like Dylan seems to be drifting away from the Sabretooth group lately. I wonder if it's just my imagination?]
[I don't think Dylan was there when Sabretooth interacted with the Constipation Team last time!]
What happened? Is Dylan isolated?
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately touched the pain point of Dylan's fans, and they were very upset.
[Stop guessing, okay? God D is busy training, so he doesn't have time to play with them!]
[God D is not the kind of traitor who eats, drinks, and has fun with his opponents. I disdain to associate with them. Thank you!]
[Is this hilarious? He's even isolating D God. Without D God, Sabertooth Tiger can win the game with just his head? He has no idea what he's doing.]
@Sabertooth_Dylan, this is so hard on my husband! He's so busy practicing all by himself, while his teammates are so brazenly doing this shameless thing!
@Sabertooth Tiger_Goblin, @Sabertooth Tiger_YOYO, @Sabertooth Tiger_Robin King, @Sabertooth Tiger_Molan, don't you four feel ashamed? Come out and get beaten!
[So I'm saying, Dylan's fans are a real cancer. No one cares about you guys, but you're still so happy and jumping around!]
[So annoying? So annoying? I'm really annoyed by D fans taking all the credit every day. If you're that good, why don't you just go play solo matches and show off yourself? Don't even bother playing in the league!]
[So, you see, your God D can only beat a chicken by himself.]
"You think we don't want D-God to play solo?! It's annoying to see him dragging you four along like a burden!"
"Then hurry up and get out of here. What are you talking about here?"
......
Unexpectedly, about an hour or two later, Dylan updated a status on his Weibo.
@Sabertooth_Dylan: I didn't go because I wasn't feeling well. Don't worry. [Image]]
He posted a selfie of himself wearing a mask, showing only a pair of eyes, with several layers of filters piled on, creating a literary and artistic atmosphere of "the years are quiet and the melancholy is beautiful".
Fans in the comment section were all expressing their heartache.
[Honey, are you okay? Woohoo, make sure you get some rest! !]
[Hubby, wow, wow, I really want to be with you. I'm so heartbroken I'm about to die!]
[I feel bad for D-brother. Don't pay attention to the haters, they are just jealous of your talent! !]
"I was saying, how could D-hyung be isolated? He must not want to go!"
What's going on?! D-Goal isn't feeling well, yet his four teammates are still going out to play without any worries? Do they have any conscience?!
@Sabertooth Official Club, come out and get beaten up, and be nice to God D, okay? He's the backbone of your team!
[You truly lack team spirit! @Sabertooth_Goblin, @Sabertooth_YOYO, @Sabertooth_RobinWang, @Sabertooth_Molan, the four of you, please behave yourself! Don't forget who brought you this glory!]
@Polaris Official Club, God D will not be defeated by you losers!!
......
When Xia Tong was browsing Weibo, he accidentally saw Dylan's status. He was stunned and jumped to WeChat to send a message to Goblin.
Polaris_Blink: [Goblin, is Dylan sick? Is it serious? Can he still play the game the day after tomorrow?]
A moment later
Sabertooth_Goblin replied: [He's not sick at all. He's fine. He even got mad this morning because the breakfast provided by the hotel wasn't to his liking.]
Polaris_Blink: [Then why did he say that? He was sick? Yeah, I saw a lot of people scolding you!]
Sabretooth_Goblin: [That's his goal, to make himself look like a beautiful, strong, and pathetic villain. The four of us are just ungrateful wolves who mistreat him.]
Polaris_Blink: [He's just too bad, isn't he?]
Xia Xiaotong, who has a strong ability to empathize, suddenly felt a little angry.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's two days later.
Early in the morning, the Polaris team packed up their things and drove to the competition venue.
In view of the special circumstances of the two teams in today's match, the stadium was packed with fans inside and outside. The number of fans watching the game was greater than any other day before. The place was packed with people, and there were all kinds of props for cheering.
After getting out of the car, Polaris and the others looked back, attracted by the noise coming from afar.
"Fuck, this isn't even a group qualifier. I even feel like I'm preparing for the finals." Zhou Yanjun said in shock.
"Thanks to our brother team Sabretooth for bringing us some attention." Shi Ya smiled and said, "I'm very satisfied with this show."
Lin Mingfei stretched his muscles and saw Xia Tong slowly getting out of the car, with her knees bent inward and trembling.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Mingfei asked.
Xia Tong said with a sad face: "I want to pee, I can't hold it anymore? QAQ!"
Lin Mingfei was stunned and quickly raised her finger, saying, "The restroom is right at the entrance of the venue. Turn left. Hurry up!"
Xia Tong: "Okay QAQ Then you guys wait for me later!" After saying that, she ran towards the venue in small steps.
Lin Mingfei sighed softly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"What's wrong?" He Youjin came over and asked.
"He drank too much orange juice this morning and needs to pee urgently." Lin Mingfei said helplessly, "Let's wait here for him so he doesn't get lost alone."
"Well, no rush." He Youjin raised his chin and looked into the distance. "That's Sabretooth's nanny car. It's still parked there. I guess they're waiting for someone to come back from the restroom."
Xia Tong rushed into the venue in a hurry.
Just as Lin Mingfei instructed, the restroom was just to the left of the exit, not far away. There were small stickman-shaped cursors hanging on the walls of the restrooms on both sides. One was wearing a triangular skirt and the other was not. They were probably used to distinguish between men and women. Xia Tong was so excited that he almost rushed into the women's restroom. Fortunately, he saw the small human-shaped cursor in time, stopped, turned around, and rushed into the men's restroom.
The restroom was very quiet. This venue was probably cleared out for use by staff and contestants, so it was sparsely populated. Xia Tong rushed in and quickly solved the problem. Then he fastened his pants again and was about to leave when he heard the door of the cubicle behind him open and a person walked out.
The man was very tall, wearing a dark hoodie and a sweatshirt. His expression was that kind of annoying indifference and contempt, and he looked a little familiar.
Xia Tong was stunned for two seconds. His mouth reacted faster than his brain and he mumbled, "D, Dylan."
Dylan lowered his gaze and looked at him, his eyes becoming colder and colder.
"This is the male Alpha restroom. What are you doing here?"
Xia Tong: “?”
He was stunned for two seconds, and his memory began to flow back. He vaguely remembered that when he rushed in just now, he caught a glimpse of the bathroom on this side of the room. There was indeed more than one cursor next to it, but those cursor stickmen seemed to look no different - none of them were wearing skirts!
Oh no, it's not just that I'm not wearing a skirt.
Xia Tong froze in place. He vaguely remembered that the middle parts of the abdomens of those stick figures were a little different. One was vaguely a triangle, one was a circle, and the other had two and a half circles protruding to one side.
——Those are...the letters of the second gender of ABO!
It was all because the Polaris Club had such great facilities. Every room had a private bathroom. Plus, he rarely went out, so he had no idea about public restrooms...
Xia Tong swallowed hard, her little lips turning pale.
"I, I took the wrong way?..." He said guiltily, "I didn't mean to... I'm sorry--" He was about to apologize when Dylan suddenly grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
A pungent smell of smoke hit Xia Tong's nose. She frowned and looked at Dylan's face, which was gloomy and a little ferocious.
"Oh, right? It's not surprising that an Omega like you, who spends all day hanging around Alphas, shows up here." He said viciously, "Are you trying your luck again? See if you can run into some blind Alpha staff member and trade your attractive little face for a backdoor?"
"You...you're talking nonsense!! I didn't!" Xia Tong's face turned pale with anger and fear, and her voice trembled: "You, you let me go!!"
As soon as Dylan let go, the struggling little Omega fell out and sat on the ground with a thud. He was stunned and his eyes turned red like a little rabbit. Dylan glanced at him with his peripheral vision and sneered without mercy: "You clumsy idiot, are you qualified to be a professional? I want to see how far Zero can take you?" After that, he lowered his head and coughed twice. Maybe he smoked too much, and there was some phlegm in his throat. He coughed hard twice, his throat "grunted" and he "spit" towards Xia Tong.
Xia Tong subconsciously raised his hand to block it, and the spit splashed right on the sleeve of his brand new team uniform. He froze, and heard Dylan's triumphant whistle in his ears.
"You brainless little idiot, why don't you just go home and stick your butt up a little higher? You can even have more children and contribute to society."
Lin Mingfei and He Youjin waited by the car for a long time. After the Sabretooth Tiger team's nanny car had left, Xia Tong slowly came out of the venue. The little Omega was only wearing a light-colored sweater, and he was holding the team uniform jacket in his hand.
"Hey! How cold is it outside? Why are you wearing so little? Are you crazy? Whose fault is it if you catch a cold?" He Youjin saw from a distance that he was wearing thin clothes and immediately got angry. He rushed over in two steps and was about to grab the team uniform for Xia Tong to put on, but he felt a wet hand.
"What's wrong with your uniform—" He Youjin was startled, and then he heard Xia Tong whisper, "The uniform was dirty, so I washed it."
"You wash it—" He Youjin was so angry that he laughed: "Did you drop your team uniform into the toilet? Did you wash your team uniform?!"
Xia Tong hung her head and said nothing.
At this time, Lin Mingfei walked over. He took off his loose team jacket, shook it open, and draped it over Xia Tong's shoulders. Then he lowered his head to help Xia Tong close the silver-white zipper.
Xia Tong was stunned. He first stared at Lin Mingfei's fingertips fiddling with the zipper for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at Lin Mingfei's face.
Alpha's deep eyebrows, as if carved by a knife and an axe, were now lowered, and his deep eyes were focused on the small blue and white zipper button. It was the logo of the Poalris team, made in the shape of a five-pointed star, smooth and shiny, just like the North Star in the sky.
After looking at the stars, she looked at Alpha's eyebrows and eyes, which were full of tenderness. Xia Tong's heart was slightly warmed. He whispered, "I'm not cold anymore."
"Well, it's good that you're not cold." Lin Mingfei said. He was wearing a navy blue high-necked cashmere sweater. His neck was slender and smooth. His black hair was blown by the cold wind, revealing his handsome forehead: "Let's go, Lao He, it's not a big deal." After that, he put his arm around Xia Tong's shoulders and led her towards the car.
He Youjin felt a little helpless, sighed and said, "I'm really impressed by you guys."
After getting in the car, Xia Tong snuggled up to Lin Mingfei, let out a light breath, and was in a daze.
"Who did you meet in the bathroom?" Lin Mingfei asked casually, folding his arms and looking straight ahead.
Xia Tong swallowed his saliva and subconsciously glanced in front and behind. He Youjin was browsing his phone, Zhou Yanjun and Bo Yu were chatting, and no one noticed him.
"I... met Dylan." He lowered his voice to Lin Mingfei, "He cursed at me with nasty words and even spat on my jersey."
Lin Mingfei's eyes fixed and he turned his head to the side.
Xia Tong suddenly stretched out her hand and covered the back of his palm that was resting on her thigh.
"But I didn't want you to vent my anger," he said seriously, "so I didn't tell you."
Lin Mingfei's Adam's apple rolled a little, and he turned his palm over and held the little Omega's soft hand.
"We at Polaris are never afraid of causing trouble, you know that."
"It's not because of this." Xia Tong shook her head: "You are just helping me vent my anger? A thousand times, ten thousand times, if I don't prove it? If it were me, I wouldn't be so happy."
"What do you want to prove about yourself?" Lin Mingfei asked, "If you play games, you're already pretty good."
"It's not just about playing games." Xia Tong said, "It's also about the mentality. I want to be like you."
Lin Mingfei: "Me?"
Xia Tong nodded vigorously. "Yes! I want to be like you. No matter what others say about me, I can remain calm and indifferent, and then do my work without distraction. People like this are truly strong, not like Dylan, who gets upset because of trivial things."
Lin Mingfei was amused by his description.
"Am I so powerful in your eyes?" He couldn't suppress the upward curve of his lips and smiled.
"Yes, you are the most perfect Alpha in my heart." Xia Tong hugged his arm and said sweetly, "Don't worry, I will definitely use my big magic wand to spank Dylan's butt this time!"
At nine o'clock, the showdown between Sabretooth and Polaris officially began.
A lot of things happened before, and every player on both sides was full of topics, especially Dylan. He created a melancholy and stubborn "beautiful, strong and miserable" image for himself before the game, and urgently needed a good record to put a perfect end to this personality.
He plays particularly aggressively in the arena?
In fact, he had been aggressive before, but the price of an aggressive style of play was a high risk of death. He needed the cover and cooperation of his teammates to escape unscathed.
However, this time, after Dylan rushed out, he found that there was no goblin protection around him, and no YOYO shield blessing behind him. He was completely exposed to the enemy's sight, like a stupid BUG point.
Then he saw the enemy hunter also appear.
Lin Mingfei changed her usual sinister attitude and rushed straight towards him.
The commentator let out a startling roar in the live broadcast room.
"Oh my god!!! Both hunters actually exposed their positions?!!! This is a duel between the two strongest marksmen in the history of the Royal Mausoleum!! They are getting closer and closer!! Closer and closer!!! Is Zero no longer afraid of Dylan's close-range triple sniper attack?! Or does he have absolute confidence in his own nurse, Timer!!"
Dylan's eyes were bloodshot. He looked at Lin Mingfei and his first reaction was to retreat.
"Mo Lan!!! Control Zero!!! Goblin, stop fucking slapping your tits! Help me control this bastard!!" He ordered and yelled hysterically, but his four teammates turned a deaf ear to him.
Dylan wanted to hide behind an obstacle on the side, but Xia Tong predicted his movement and he was hit by a confinement spell out of thin air.
Lin Mingfei approached in an instant. Dylan was so scared that his hands were shaking. He pressed the trigger in panic. "Bang", the bullet grazed Lin Mingfei's temple.
"Wrong?! Dylan's close-range shot went astray?! Was it a mistake?!" The commentator slammed the table and stood up. "He missed again?! Oh my god! Dylan missed both shots?! He didn't even wait for the aiming line to form! Was this a mistake in the close-range triple sniping demonstration or a pure mistake?! Dylan turned and ran?! He made a tactical retreat—but he couldn't escape! Blink's Binding Spell is like powerful 502 glue! Dylan got stuck to Zero again?! Sabretooth's teammates are too far away from him right now! This aggressive play probably wasn't communicated with the teammates in advance! One wrong move leads to another!"
At this moment, all the audience outside the venue held their breath, and Dylan's fans who had been full of anticipation were all clenching their fists in frustration.
"Close range triple sniping! Show off!!"
"Dylan, do you have Parkinson's? Why are you shaking?!"
"What the hell are you afraid of?! Damn Zero! Damn!!"
At this moment, Dylan could not hear the shouting outside the field. The barrel of the gun was against his abdomen. His mind was blank. The only thing he could hear was Lin Mingfei's sneer in his ear from a close distance.
"Want to see a real close-quarters triple sniper attack? I'll show you how."
