Chapter 46



"Silence can't come to tomorrow's game."

"Silence can't come?!"

"That's impossible!"

"Tomorrow is the Asian Invitational Tournament, and he just said he couldn't come. How irresponsible!"

"Anyone can be absent, but Silence is the captain and the center, so how can he not come? How can we play this game without him?"

Tang Jinhai's words left them no room for suspense: "We've confirmed it over and over again. The situation cannot be reversed. He simply can't come."

The news hit everyone like a thunderclap, leaving them stunned for a long time, shocked, angry, unable to accept, or worried and panicked.

Lin Meng's limbs felt cold as if the blood had been drained from them. She stood behind Tang Jinhai, trying hard to suppress her trembling voice: "Then... Silence... what happened to him?!"

"It's a private family matter, so I can't disclose it." Tang Jinhai said with a sad face, "MENG, you must play in tomorrow's game."

“?!”

"Damn, letting this girl replace Silence? As a sniper? Are you crazy?" Miss heard Tang Jinhai's order and rushed over in two steps, "Tomorrow we're playing against South Korea's U2. U2 was the runner-up in the Korean BPL Autumn Tournament last year. They're not some mediocre team!"

"Then what can you do?" Tang Jinhai asked coldly, "Silence can't come. Are we just going to give up and return home now? Instead of discussing this now, why not discuss it with Xiyou and formulate a new strategy?"

"With Silence away, I'm the most senior member of the team. I don't agree with letting MENG play sniper. How can she be so weak? This is like surrendering!" Missy said angrily, "Why not let me play sniper and let her go to support and just sit there. If we can go four-on-one, maybe there's still hope. What do you think, Coach?"

Xiyou looked at Lin Meng. The girl's face and lips were very pale. She was as thin as a piece of paper. She looked like she couldn't carry anything with her shoulders or hands. This would not earn his trust at all.

"Fortunately, tomorrow's game will be a battlefield game, so the margin for error will be higher." He said, "I think Miss's suggestion can be adopted."

Lin Meng moved her mouth, but her voice of rebuttal seemed inaudible amid the quarrels and complaints. She had no status at all, and no one paid attention to or listened to her. In the end, she was forced to be assigned to the supporting position.

Usually, the champion of the BPL Spring Tournament will be directly seeded to the World Championship. The team with the highest points throughout the year can also get a ticket to the World Championship. The last spot is the privilege of the Asian region. The team that wins the championship in the Asian Invitational Tournament will be sent to the World Championship as a representative of the Asian region.

This quota may seem like an extra opportunity, but in fact, the competition is more intense in the entire Asian region.

After Kars won the championship, Yu Mo's appearance rate in this year's competition was much less, and the results of the spring season were not very satisfactory, which also caused many people to make unnecessary speculations.

Yu Mo's family background has always been a hot topic. He comes from a genuine wealthy family and his father is a nationally renowned business tycoon. Ever since he entered the industry, he has been jokingly called the inspirational, rich and handsome man who "will have to go back to inherit the family business if he doesn't play his job well."

Many people also find it hard to understand why Yu Mo chose to become a professional player, as he would have a smoother life if he had simply inherited his father's business.

Yu Mo's silent exit now further confirmed many people's guesses.

He must be tired of playing around and wants to go back to being his eldest son.

However, Lin Meng did not believe these explanations. She thought Yu Mo must have had some unavoidable reasons to cancel such an important competition.

I hope it's nothing...too serious.

The competition system of the Asian Invitational is very mysterious. It does not adopt the usual game mode, but a battlefield mode.

Unlimited resurrections and unlimited team battles.

The night before the competition, Lin Meng stayed awake all night.

She felt that her "teammates" had lost their minds and had no intention of formulating a complete set of tactics.

But she couldn't follow the collapse.

This is Yu Mo's hard work and his unfulfilled responsibility.

Although she didn't know what happened in Yu Mo's family, she had to do her best to save the situation.

She tossed and turned in her hotel bed for a long time, and finally, she came up with an idea.

At the beginning of the game with U2, Lin Meng, as an auxiliary, broke away from the main force formation with an initial piece of armor and rushed straight towards the enemy camp.

Soon, she lay down.

But because it was a battlefield mode, the character could be resurrected unlimited times. After she got up at the resurrection point, she once again rushed towards the opposite side like a moth to a flame.

The opponent took her life again.

In the first ten minutes of the game, Lin Meng gave away seven or eight heads. She used the little money she had saved up to buy a grenade and once again rushed into the crowd to self-destruct.

The other side spared no firepower to harvest her every time, as if to mock her behavior of fighting a rock with an egg.

However, as time went on, the other side gradually discovered that something was wrong.

Because of the competition system, characters who die frequently will gradually depreciate.

Lin Meng died so frequently that after the four opponents killed her, the economic benefits distributed to each person were only in the single digits.

To this end, they wasted a lot of artillery reserves and their development rhythm was completely disrupted.

Twenty minutes into the game, U2's commander discovered that the four output players of Kars's team had already taken a large lead in economy and their equipment was basically complete.

In the last ten minutes, Lin Meng sold all his armor and damage items at half price and exchanged them for a few simple healing items. He guarded his teammates' health and participated in several team battles. The number of kills was equalized, and in the end, he narrowly won with a record of two more kills.

When the game was won, the four output players of Kars hugged each other tightly and cheered, while Lin Meng huddled in a chair alone, feeling a little worried.

She had to admit that this "sacrifice" style of play was entirely due to her lack of trust in her own C position, so she tried her best to provide good development space for her other output positions. She glanced at the detailed data analysis after the battle. The real damage data of the sniper position was indeed very high, but the proportion of it in the total damage of the team's strong development was simply touching.

Lin Meng sighed, and her worries grew.

This style of play can only achieve a surprise victory once. After that, the opponent will know what is going on and will not fall into the same trap again.

But where can we find a winning strategy now?

Lin Meng sighed, thinking, why not just follow the normal routine and play with them? After all, they are all professional players, maybe... maybe I can win?

But she still overestimated Miss's level. In the second game, Miss wasted the whole time, neither giving away kills nor dealing damage. After wasting thirty minutes, they lost as expected.

In the third game, Lin Meng was completely disappointed with Miss. She hoped to use the "sacrifice" style of play again to attract the opponent's attention. However, this time U2 was prepared and did not even look at her. He just stared at Kars's output, so she lost again.

After losing two games in a row, the mentality of all Kars members has collapsed.

"MENG, could you please stop running around like that?" Missy's eyes were bloodshot as she yelled hysterically at Lin Meng, "What the hell do you want to do? Tell me what you want to do!"

Lin Meng didn't say anything, but she was already annoyed in her heart.

She knew very well that unless the opponents died collectively, Kars' team would not be able to win.

A group of teammates who are bad and don't know it don't deserve victory.

1:3, they left the stage in disgrace.

As soon as she stepped off the stage, Missy rushed over like crazy, pointing at Lin Meng and cursing, "I told you she was no match for her! Look at what she did! She was just giving away kills in the first round! If the four of us hadn't grown up at the end, we would have been crushed to death at 0:3!"

Lin Meng raised her eyes and looked at him with a cold look, as if she was looking at a monster.

Why would Yu Mo be on the same team with such a monster?

Is this kind of monster worthy of winning the game?

"You only deserve 0:3." She sneered, "1:3 is my fucking mercy!"

"You!" Missy yelled angrily, "You're fucking helping U2 fix the match! CNM, you bitch!"

Tang Jinhai on the side pretended to fight, his hands were empty, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Meng gradually changed.

There is no need to say more about what happened afterwards.

She was labeled a criminal by a notice issued by Tang Jinhai.

Perhaps she should feel fortunate that Tang Jinhai did not accuse her of "match-fixing". Perhaps Tang Jinhai was also afraid that the entire Kars club would be implicated by the term "match-fixing".

At the end of the recollection, Lin Meng realized that the roots of his teeth were aching from biting them.

She chewed the gum casually twice, took out a paper handkerchief from her pocket, wrapped the gum that had already hardened, and threw it into the trash can.

I feel like the scolding I gave to that bastard Miss just now wasn't harsh enough.

What a shameless thing. After so many years, he still can't change his bad habits.

He should have been kicked 200 yards out!

As she was thinking, her cell phone suddenly started vibrating.

When Lin Meng left the game, Yu Mo also lost his brief interest in the game.

He let go of the mouse and wanted to rest for a while, but suddenly found that his four fingers had left the mouse surface, only his thumb was still on it.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and he tensed his wrist before completely withdrawing his hand.

At this time, Panda and Lao Mai had just returned from dinner and said in high spirits, "Captain, we've finished our meal, but you haven't finished your game yet!"

"It's over." Yu Mo smiled, rubbing his thumb as he stood up and said, "I'm getting ready to eat now."

Li Ze sat down calmly, looked up and asked, "Who was so honored to be led by the captain of the labor team?"

"No one, I'm playing solo." Yu Mo replied, "I'm going to eat first."

After saying that, he left the training room.

Li Ze stared at his back for a long time, then turned back to the computer with a gloomy expression.

Yu Mo rubbed his thumbs to warm them up, and the slight numbness subsided.

The profession of Vanguard Warrior is different from that of Sniper. It requires frequent and extensive use of arm and finger manipulation skills. Yu Mo had not played this profession for a long time, and he felt a little uncomfortable when he first started, and even felt a little overwhelmed.

While trying to relax his wrists and fingers, he walked into the sunroom, took out his cell phone with his left hand and called Lin Meng.

"Hello? Captain." Lin Meng's voice sounded on the other end, sounding listless.

"What's wrong?" Yu Mo asked, "Did you have an unpleasant game just now?"

"No." Lin Meng shook her head. "It was very satisfying." She paused and said softly, "I just feel that this satisfaction came too late, Captain..."

"Hmm?" Yu Mo responded, turned around, leaned against the railing, and looked up at the clear blue sky.

The weather is very good.

"Do you think I'm a vindictive person?" Lin Meng said, "I'm very petty and never give up."

"A little bit." Yu Mo smiled gently.

Lin Meng was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head silently.

Yu Mo has such good upbringing, is open-minded, and treats people gently. If he saw himself speaking foul language to Miss and wanting to kill her, he would probably feel disgusted.

But she is like this, and there is no way she can change it, alas.

The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she became. She raised her hand and punched the iron railing in front of her.

"But I just like the way you are petty and vindictive." Yu Mo suddenly said.

Lin Meng was stunned, and a tingling sensation rushed into her chest. This feeling was very new and made her feel at a loss. She didn't know what to say in response for a moment.

"If Miss hadn't quit so quickly today, I would have added him as my friend and reminisced about the past." Yu Mo's laughter was gentle, yet it hinted at a sinister edge. "I really want to ask him where he got the courage to sniper for me back then. His sniper skills...tsk, I really can't bear to watch."

If Silence really questioned her like this, Miss would probably dig a hole under her feet and jump in!

When Lin Meng thought of that scene, he felt so happy that he almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Really? I'm not kidding you." Yu Mo said seriously, "Hey, you haven't seen me scold people yet? Actually, when I was young, I was quite good at scolding people. I'll let you see it next time I have the chance."

When Lin Meng met Yu Mo, Yu Mo was already the leader of a team. He had to take the lead no matter what, so he controlled his temper, treated people politely, and could even be said to be very good at socializing. Of course, he would never curse anyone.

Lin Meng found it a little hard to imagine that Yu Mo had the same sweet talk as her.

When Lin Meng thought about Yu Mo being willing to scold others for her, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up wildly. She felt that it was becoming easier and easier for Yu Mo to please her, as if she would be particularly happy just by saying a few words to Yu Mo.

"Thank you." Lin Meng flattened his throat and laughed softly, "You served as my sparring partner and made me happy."

It was the first time Yu Mo had heard Lin Meng speak in such a tone. Every word was full of innocentness and coquettishness. His heart softened and he smiled gently, "Why are you still saying thank you to me? You are not allowed to say thank you anymore. Do you hear me?"

Lin Meng hummed, then thought for a moment and said, "Hey, Captain, I want to ask you for something."

"What?"

"Can you give me Aunt Ji's contact information?" Lin Meng said a little embarrassedly: "I...I want to thank her."

Yu Mo pondered for a moment: "My mother is not very good at using her phone, but she often stays at home. How about this, I'll give you the number of my home phone. You can call her at night and most likely you can find her."

After talking to Yu Mo on the phone, Lin Meng felt happy and refreshed. She went back home with her phone in her hand. As soon as she went downstairs, she met Crystal at the stairs.

"Brother C." Lin Meng greeted him.

"Hey." Crystal leaned over in response, leaning seductively against the railing. He looked up and smiled, "I heard you just beat Tang Shao and his team in the national server rankings?"

"Ah, yes." Lin Meng did not deny it.

"Very good, keep it up." Crystal said admiringly, "I just saw everyone online saying you chased former Kars player Miss to the brink of death and pinned her to the ground. Is that true or not?"

"That's because he's too weak." Lin Meng rolled his eyes, trying not to look too complacent. "The gap in strength between him and me is so huge that it only has that effect."

"I see." Crystal smiled. "I thought you and him had some kind of feud, eh?" He suddenly added, "You two don't really have any feud, do you?"

Lin Meng's body stiffened slightly.

"He taunted me in the game." She whispered, "Is this considered a holiday?"

Crystal's eyes flickered, and she waved her hand, "Hey, I was just asking casually. So that's it. It's okay, let's get back to training."

Little did people know that at this moment, the exciting game between Winter Team and the anchor team has become the top hot topic on BOD Super Topic.

The three major BOD streamers were all recording, and countless fans were watching the game live. Tang Shao always had a good attitude towards losing games, and said with a smile, "With such luck against a team of all-professional players, I could just buy a lottery ticket. Losing is not surprising."

Fans are great at grasping the key points, and the "All-Pro Team" successfully captured their attention.

[So, is Winter_LEMON the new player signed by Team Winter?]

Who is he replacing? Who is retiring?

[Dan Zong, I heard that Dan Zong's health is not good.]

[Wow, this is so sudden! I can't accept it!]

[But this LEMON seems to be pretty good at sniping! I wonder what kind of guy he is! ]

[Yeah, yeah, yeah, the sniper got all the first blood in this round. He must have been the one who carried the whole thing!]

I think Winter and the others are working well together. Maybe they'll surprise us in the Autumn Season!

Am I the only one who noticed that God of Silence is here too? He's even playing as a vanguard... [facepalm][facepalm]

[Holy shit! I was just about to say this! When did Winter become so powerful! He could even get God Mo to be his sparring partner!]

[So the local teams' heart-to-heart connection is real, hahahaha! God of Mo was so damn low-key in this game.]

[This round, I saw great dedication from God Mo. How hard must it be to keep this man from stealing the spotlight! Hahahahahaha!]

[Damn, who the hell is that LEMON? He actually made God Mo give up his sniper position!]

[My fighting skills are totally incomparable to God of Silence! Haha.]

[Here is a live argumentative person. ]

If you want to see Silence play sniper, go watch the old matches. Why is he trying to show off here?

[Damn, I'm getting more and more curious. This LEMON seems like the kind of stern, quiet, yandere little brother. When will Winter officially announce it?! My crush is about to make a move.]

[Sisters, don’t set a flag. If you have a sister with a body like Panda, you will cry [dog head]. ]

So what did we, Dada, do wrong to deserve to be called out at a time like this [laughing and crying][laughing and crying].

Li Ze took a break from his busy schedule to check Weibo and happened to see the content in these super topics.

He clicked it and took a closer look, then suddenly remembered what Yu Mo had said before, "I'm playing solo."

Yu Mo is lying!

But why would he lie?

So Yu Mo would rather play with Winter Team than queue with me?

It was as if a thorn was piercing into his heart bit by bit. The corners of Li Ze's mouth twitched and he angrily threw his phone on the table.

Lin Meng took the time to call Ji Yan using the landline number Yu Mo gave her.

When Ji Yan received the call, she was so happy that she stopped watching Korean dramas and playing Candy Crush. She sat cross-legged on the sofa and started talking to Lin Meng seriously on the phone.

"Look, Auntie Ji taught you right, didn't she?" Ji Yan's words were full of complacency, but she couldn't hide her pride. "Interpersonal relationships are pretty easy to handle."

"Aunt Ji, you're amazing." Lin Meng admired her from the bottom of her heart: "Why do you know so much? It's like you know the tapeworms in their stomachs."

"Because I've experienced more than you've walked." Ji Yan said with a smile, "Back when I married Yu Mo's father, the Yu family didn't agree. They moved all the tablets from the ancestral hall and lined them up at the threshold, refusing to let me through! They said that if I dared to step through, I'd be disrespecting their ancestors."

"Huh?" Lin Meng was shocked. "Isn't this too feudal?"

"So what?" Recalling the past, Ms. Ji didn't feel angry at all. Instead, she felt a surge of superiority and snorted with a laugh. "In the end, I dealt with them one by one. They rushed up to me every holiday to give me gifts and were incredibly affectionate. Hey, you know what, Yu Mo's dad is rich, right? The office environment is bound to be extravagant, but for all these years, he hasn't had any scandals, and there hasn't even been a single trouble around him. That's all thanks to my good husband management!"

Lin Meng couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect Yu Mo's father to be so fond of him."

"No, no, no." Ms. Ji denied it repeatedly, insisting, "It's obviously because I control my husband well!"

Lin Meng didn't comment anymore, but just kept laughing. As she laughed, she felt a sense of security in her heart.

I'm afraid this characteristic of the Yu family is directly inherited...

Yu Mo: A-choo!

I've gained a level of favorability without realizing it. Thanks to the little angels who voted for me or provided me with nutrient solution between 2019-11-12 23:30:59 and 2019-11-13 19:22:17~

Thanks to the little angel who irrigated the nutrient solution: 10 bottles of Pitao Pitao;

Thank you very much for your support. I will continue to work hard!
