Chapter 22



Lin Mi stood outside the fighting room, and through the transparent glass, he watched Rong Zezhou, wearing noise-cancelling headphones and playing solo with the young support player on the opposite side with a serious expression.

This is a very magical perspective, which allows you to clearly see all the hand movements and even facial expressions of the players, allowing all their emotional ups and downs to be revealed.

The big screen in the observation room was showing the OB's perspective of the game, but Roll, like Lin Mi, was standing in front of the glass observing, seemingly having no interest in the content of the game.

"Did you see anything?"

roll was chatting with Lin Mi with great interest.

Lin Mi was a little afraid to comment, fearing that if he said something wrong it would affect the future of the young support player, but Roll said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, you can say whatever you want, anyway, the final decision is made by A Zhou."

Lin Mi knew that players of Rong Zezhou's level would have a certain say in the team, but he didn't expect that in the new team, Rong Zezhou's power would be so great that he could decide the players on the team. This shows how much the new team values ​​and trusts him.

Sure enough, compared to the XY team whose boss is extremely despicable, the new team is a better choice for Rong Zezhou.

"I feel like this support player is too nervous,"

Lin Mi tried to describe his feelings in words. "Or rather, he wanted to show off too much and lost his composure. Coach, you just said that this player is known for his stability, but in this solo game, even if I didn't see the game screen, I could guess the general situation from the strength of his keyboard strokes and the changes in his expression. It's obvious that his emotions fluctuated greatly."

Roll grinned, very satisfied with Lin Mi's judgment. He pointed at Rong Zezhou and asked, "What about Azhou? Do you think he is satisfied with this support player?"

Lin Mi shook his head honestly: "Although on the surface he didn't seem to have any expression changes, I can see that he is a little impatient."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Roll asked curiously.

"I've been playing duo with him recently, and I've noticed a little habit of his," Lin Mi's eyes also showed a smile, "When he encounters bad teammates, or when the game is boring, he will subconsciously keep pressing the S key to make the hero stay where he is."

Roll turned his head to look at the big screen in the observation room. The Clockwork Mage controlled by Rong Zezhou really seemed to have been electrocuted. It stopped moving from time to time in the gaps between last hitting and consuming energy, and it looked a bit funny.

Roll used to be the assistant coach of the XY team. He has been coaching Rong Zezhou for a year and a half, but this was the first time he noticed this detail.

Quite interesting.

Roll carefully looked at the young man standing in front of the glass and looking at the fighting room seriously, and suddenly felt that Rong Zezhou's previous suggestion was very good.

At this moment in the battle room, the solo has ended.

This was a solo that had nothing to do with winning or losing, and Rong Zezhou did not try his best to win. Instead, he tried to prolong the solo time and deliberately created some opportunities to see the players' reactions. In the end, neither side killed the other, and the game ended with Rong Zezhou getting 100 kills.

After the game was over, Rong Zezhou did not start the second game, but said something to the support player. The support player stood up, bowed to Rong Zezhou, turned around and walked out of the game room.

The moment he turned around, tears fell, and his hands that pushed open the door were shaking weakly.

"Is this the only chance we have?" Lin Mi asked with some reluctance.

Roll smiled and said, "How can there be so many chances? Can we have a rematch after losing the game? If we give him another chance just because we feel sorry for him, it would be unfair to other players."

Lin Mi was silent.

Roll is right, the opportunity is fair to every player who can enter the battle room. Even if you try your best, you may not be selected, let alone if you perform poorly?

This is just like the college entrance examination. No matter how hard you work and how well you perform, in the end all you have to look at is that piece of paper.

As they were talking, the second support player for trial had knocked on the door and walked into the battle room.

He was a boy who looked younger. Compared to the previous contestant who was reserved, he was obviously more relaxed. He even took out a notebook and tried to get an autograph from Rong Zezhou, but Rong Zezhou confiscated the notebook and urged him to start quickly.

This solo game ended extremely quickly, because the support player did not hesitate at all when facing Rong Zezhou. He chose a very powerful hero at level 1 and started fighting with Rong Zezhou as soon as he came online. Then, Rong Zezhou was hacked to death by him.

“Hahaha, Ah Zhou actually failed,” Roll laughed unusually happily. “I told him that this kid is a very aggressive player, but he actually picked a level 1 hero with little combat power to fight him to the end. Tsk tsk, isn’t it embarrassing?”

Lin Mi also laughed. It was rare to see Rong Zezhou being humiliated. It was definitely worth recording and playing it repeatedly.

Rong Zezhou was indeed a little surprised, but he didn't say anything and continued to play the second game. This time, Rong Zezhou, who was prepared for the opponent's style, did not give the small auxiliary any chance, but adopted a very torturous style of play.

Rong Zezhou kept increasing the distance between himself and the little assistant, using the advantage of his long arms to attack him from time to time, but he would also distance himself from the little assistant before he wanted to go forward to fight, leaving him no chance to touch him at all.

Completely different from the previous round, the two fought for a very long time in this round, because neither of them was serious about finishing off the enemy, but wanted to win by getting kills.

In other words, the assistant unilaterally wanted to kill Rong Zezhou, while Rong Zezhou was testing him slowly and had no intention of ending the game.

Finally, 15 minutes into the game, the little auxiliary finally couldn't hold back and wanted to go over the tower to kill Rong Zezhou, but Rong Zezhou turned off the key control skill and was beaten to death by the defense tower.

However, until the very end, Rong Zezhou did not use any of his output skills against the little auxiliary. He was as calm as an immortal, as if he did not need to make any move and the opponent would just die on his own.

Even Roll, who was watching from the sidelines, felt that Rong Zezhou's style of play in this round was clearly revengeful, and was a bit too cruel for a young assistant who had never played a formal match. However, the young assistant did not show any sign of frustration. He raised his hand with shining eyes and asked for another round.

"No more fighting, let's stop here today."

Rong Zezhou coldly rejected the assistant's request to turn the tables, "Go back and wait for notification."

The light in the assistant's eyes instantly went out. He stood up dejectedly, bowed and thanked him. Finally, he struggled to get an autograph again, but was still rejected. He could only leave the battle room in frustration, holding the notebook he had carefully prepared.

Roll clicked his tongue twice: "Azhou is so heartless, the kid just wants an autograph, why refuse him?"

Lin Mi guessed, "Maybe he thought that we would be teammates in the future, so it would be a bit awkward to sign for him now."

"Do you think Azhou will choose him?"

Roll pretended to flip through the information in his hand, "Actually, there are a few good candidates to try -"

"No need to try, just him,"

Rong Zezhou just happened to push the door open and said bluntly, "Our team's bottom lane will be very interesting from now on. There are two little crazy guys. No one can stop them when they charge forward."

"What are you afraid of?" Roll threw away the documents in his hand. "If you think it's suitable, then it's settled. I'll talk to him later. If there's no problem, I'll let the lawyer prepare the contract."

Rong Zezhou nodded: "Well, let Ji Feng play duo with him to develop tacit understanding during this period, and I will lead him after he joins the team."

"Is that settled?"

Rong Zezhou and Roll's efficiency was truly amazing. They made the decision on such an important matter as selecting team members without any hesitation, which surprised Lin Mi.

"I heard Gu Dong say before that teams need to play scrimmages to select players. For the support position, can we see the overall level of the players by playing solo?"

He thought that at least his understanding of tactics would be tested. After all, isn't the support usually the commander?

Rong Zezhou and Roll laughed together.

"What do you think the youth training camp is for?"

Rong Zezhou picked up the information that the roll had thrown aside and handed it to Lin Mi. "After the contestants enter the camp, they will continue to train and test, and go through rounds of elimination. Those who can stay in the final and appear in our selection range will have good qualities and basic skills. Today's tryout is just to confirm the contestants' style and mental quality."

"As for the training match," Rong Zezhou spread his hands, "Our new team members are not all here yet, so we can't arrange a training match. We can only talk about it after everyone is here."

Lin Mi flipped open the thick stack of information, and the first page was the personal profile of the young assistant.

[Name: Hua Shuran]

[Age: 18 years old]

[Basic reaction test: 120ms (plus or minus 30), S level.]

[Stability test: 60 seconds for S level; 120 seconds for A level. ]

[Information capture ability test: 90% accuracy, grade A.]

[Quick memory and recovery ability test: level 13, grade a. ]

[Hand-eye-brain coordination test: 0.45s, 97% accuracy, S level.]

Lin Mi was completely confused. He could only guess from the rating at the back that this little assistant named Hua Shuran should be quite powerful, either S-level or A-level.

"Can we tell a professional player's ability from these test data?" Lin Mi asked humbly.

Roll shook his head and said, "These tests are just the threshold to becoming a professional player. Let's put it this way, only those who meet the standards in all five of the tests above have the possibility of becoming a professional player. This is a congenital condition."

At this point, Roll suddenly suggested: "Lin Mi, do you want to do a test?"

Lin Mi was stunned for a moment: "I don't plan to be a professional player, why do I need to do this kind of test?"

Roll glanced at Rong Zezhou, who understood and stepped forward to hold Lin Mi's shoulders, leading him out: "Since you're here, why not give it a try? It's quite fun, just treat it as an experience."

Lin Mi always felt that Rong Zezhou was planning something in secret, but on second thought, it seemed that there was nothing of his own that was worthy of Rong Zezhou's plot.

Lin Mi secretly laughed at himself for watching the palace fighting drama for too long last night and started to have wild thoughts. But in fact, he was quite curious about the test of the youth training camp. Just like Rong Zezhou said, it was no big deal to just treat it as an experience.

The testing room of the youth training camp is on the first floor of the office building. When Lin Mi and the other two came down, they happened to meet a parent who brought his child to take a test. It seemed that the test result was not very good. The child looked depressed, and the parent was whispering to comfort him.

"Now society is increasingly recognizing the e-sports industry, and more and more children want to become professional e-sports players. Now is the end of the semester, and the youth training camp is still a little quiet. During the summer vacation, you have to make an appointment a few days in advance for the test."

Roll had worked as a coach in the youth training camp for a period of time, so he was very familiar with this place. While introducing Lin Mi, he took him into the testing room, where two people were chatting.

One of the men, who was wearing a pure white shirt, pointed at the statistics on the screen and said, "Regarding the dynamic vision test module, I think the settings are a bit too simple. If you look at the test data over the past six months, the compliance rate of this module is significantly higher than that of other modules, which means that the parameters are set too low."

Another man in sportswear explained, "League of Legends is not an FPS game after all, so the requirements for dynamic vision are not that high. We designed this test to screen out children who are not suitable to become professional players. There is no need to worry about the pass rate of a single item."

The man in white was still studying the data carefully, but the man in sportswear noticed someone coming in. He looked up and said happily, "Hey, how come you have time to come to the test center? I remember someone said, "If I can leave here, I will never come back in this life." So, are you here to revisit the old place today, or to mess things up?"

Roll coughed awkwardly, "Hey, that was just nonsense because I was drunk. Li Yan, why are you so vindictive? I'm going to form a new team, but you thought of our youth training camp first. Isn't that considerate?"

Li Yan said, "Tsk, I don't know you? Tell me, which darling in our training camp have you taken a fancy to?"

"I haven't decided yet. I just want to see if there are any kids who can be used as substitutes in the summer season to train them. I just saw a young boy who just came of age. He's okay. He has a lively personality, but I'm not in a hurry. I'll take a look at other ones. If you have any good youngsters who just came in, remember to send them to me."

After all, he hadn't signed a contract with Hua Shuran yet, so Roll spoke half-truthfully to prevent the news from leaking out and causing others to target him and take advantage of the situation.

Li Yan knew that Roll was just talking casually, so he didn't take it seriously. Instead, the man in white turned around and said seriously, "There hasn't been a suitable one in the past six months. You don't need to waste your time."

Roll's pupils shrank when he saw the man's face clearly: "Yan, Yan Jin, why are you here?!"

Rong Zezhou raised his hand and answered: "I asked Brother Yan to come and help me see if there are other suitable children in the youth training camp."

Roll said angrily: "Isn't it enough to have me? Why do you have to ask him to come and see!"

Yan Jin adjusted his glasses and said, "If you are so capable, I don't mind you helping me share some of the work."

“Who wants to help you share the work!”

Every time Roll meets Yan Jin, he gets so angry that smoke comes out of his head. "I'm telling you, from now on, we won't interfere with each other and no one will provoke the other!"

Yan Jing ignored the angry Roll and looked at Rong Zezhou——

Lin Mi beside him.

Lin Mi greeted him obediently: "Hello, Coach Yan."

Yan Jing corrected him seriously: "I'm not a coach, I'm an analyst for the team."

Lin Mi didn't quite understand why Yan Jin cared about this title, but he still followed his lead and changed his words: "Sorry, I'll call you Brother Yan then."

Calling him Analyst Yan is a bit difficult to pronounce.

Yan Jing nodded in satisfaction, and at this time Rong Zezhou said to Li Yan: "Coach Li, my friend wants to do a test, is it convenient for you?"

"It's convenient. What's inconvenient about it? Of course, it would be even more convenient if you could also test it and improve the sample for us."

Li Yan bargained with a smile.

It's rare to have a top professional player come to you, so why not use him?

Rong Zezhou nodded to indicate the deal, then he pulled Lin Mi and sat him in front of the computer, ready to start testing.

These days he has been teaching Lin Mi to play League of Legends. Lin Mi's progress was so fast that even he was surprised. He had a hunch that Lin Mi must be very talented.
