Chapter 111: A Quiet that nobody is managing will bite people.

Nobody placed that much emphasis on the KDA rankings. After all, when the big guys in the other competition zones started competing, they’d likely clean out the rankings almost instantly.

Quiet’s ability to get first place was entirely dependent on how weak LH was and was of little significance.

But his number one ranking in the popularity list was extremely brilliant.

There were some senior analysis emperors around:

“There’s no need to think about it. This LU must be a CP fan, a fan who ships the double jungler CP. Seeing that Close isn’t there, they disguised themselves as one of the main characters to show love like crazy.”

“That’s right! I just went to look at their data. The ID’s gender is female. It must be a little sister who has a ton of money.”

“Impressed, impressed, no wonder everyone wants to sell to fujoshis, even I’m falling for it.”

“Previous poster, wake up. Are you as cool as Close, or as handsome as Quiet?”

“Little sisters, don’t be so desperate. Please grow up to look like Close, and then have Close’s strength, and be as rich as him while you’re at it…”

“Please excuse me, goodbye!”

Nobody believed that LU really was Lu Feng.

It was just an ID that could be found anywhere.

Especially back then when Lu Feng used his alt account on his live broadcast for the first time and exposed his ID LU, there was instantly a crowd of people who’d followed suit and seized the same ID across countless platforms.

Later, there were too many fakes, and everyone was sick of seeing them. They’d gotten so used to it that there was nothing strange about it.

The story of the boy who’d cried wolf was unforgettable, no matter whether it was on purpose or accidental.

Now… the real person had showed up, but nobody believed it.

Only when Lu Feng saw the scrolling comments did he realize that the account’s default gender was female.

He was too lazy to change it back to male.

Not to mention changing the gender, he even wrote in his self introduction––Even if I’m Close, nobody will believe me.

Lu Feng had also considered that nobody would believe that it was him when he brazenly sent out gifts.

Nobody believed it, but a little lunatic would.

That was enough.

FTW’s match against LH was BO3, which meant that the first team to win two games would win.

FTW won two games in one go, and it only took one and a half hours. They could be described as vigorous and resolute.

In the first game, Wei Xiao took the berserker thief. At the start of the game, he locked onto LH’s mid-laner. He came close and used a forced control skill, sending him right back to the crystal.

At the time, LH had still been able to hold on, and someone was still saying in their team chat, “It’s okay, it’s okay, the berserker thief is relatively fierce during the early stages, stay steady!”

“Support, come with me, we’ll go into their jungle area!” Their mid-lane was dead, so they naturally had to go and snatch up the other side’s resources to get even.

Who could’ve known that when they entered the area with the red buff, they’d run head-on into the Brother Cai who’d been crouching there in advance to wait.

Brother Cai used a bubble tune and sent both of them into a stunned daze.

LH’s support yelled, “Retreat! There’s an ambush!”

LH’s jungler, “Bro, I’ve been locked in place!”

Everyone in LH: “……”

Then, they saw the berserker thief come in from behind to surround them, taking away LH’s jungler’s life before chasing LH’s support player around and around until he was crying and wailing.

A triple kill at the start of the game made LH collapse thoroughly.

LP’s mid-laner said darkly, “I heard that we supposedly managed to suck in some luck?”

“I heard that we supposedly worshipped Buddha and changed our fate?”

“I heard that we supposedly have a 70% win rate?”

“I heard that we were going to turn the tables completely?”

“F*ck! The internet is full of liars. Laozi is damned for believing them!”

Like hell had they sucked in luck. They’d completely opened up a Pandora’s box and released a new demon.

They even said that they had a 70% win chance. They should be a little bit more confident and change it to 100%––100% chance of losing until they dropped their underwear!

LH’s mid-laner died again. He was very calm, “I feel that we might be better off with God Lu.”

LH’s mid-laner continued, “If we weren’t given some hope at the start, there would be no need for such despair now.”

Everyone: “……” Shit, this was too real!

They were abused brutally in the first game, and in the second game, it was even more bloody.

In these two games, Quiet didn’t use the inherited shadow thief at all. Of course, it was also that LH had banned the shadow thief.

However, there wasn’t much significance in whether they banned it or not. As the number of deaths increased, LH’s team members wanted to express––it was better to let out the shadow thief, at least they could then see the light arcs spreading all over the sky!

For better or worse, it would be a magnificent death. If they could die with their eyes dazzled, then it would be a different experience!

The crowd of people who were flaming FTW were all slapped until their faces were swollen by this ‘slaughter show’.

Chen Feng’s face also felt a little painful––to hell with being afraid. These beasts would only make others afraid!

A BO3 usually took more than two and a half hours to finish, but FTW only took an hour and a half. Although they hadn’t broken any records for the shortest time taken, it was still fast and direct.

There was an interview session after the competition. The host would choose a representative from the winning and losing teams and ask them a few questions.

The audience was looking forward to it.

They were too curious, wanting to know who from FTW would come out for the interview. The host would definitely ask them sharp questions, so how would FTW answer?

Exciting! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Backstage, FTW Lounge.

Wei Xiao raised his hand.

Chen Feng: “No way, you can’t go.”

Wei Xiao was aggrieved, “I am the MVP…”

Generally speaking, the interviewees were the MVPs from the team. Based on Wei Xiao’s heaven shattering records in the battle, he was naturally the MVP.

But how could Chen Feng dare to let him out? FTW’s popularity was already high enough, and they didn’t need Wei Xiao to stir up big news!

Wei Xiao might be crazy in the arena, but he would be well-behaved after he left the court, especially in front of his seniors.

Chen Feng glanced over.

Ning Zhehan’s back tensed up, “I-I can’t do it, coach!” He would stammer and humiliate the team!

Yue Wenle had an aura of powerlessness, “My health bar is empty.” Two games had used up a lot of energy. There were chips to replenish him, but he just wanted to lie there on the ground.

Tang Chen scratched the back of his head, “I’ll go”

Chen Feng rolled his eyes at him.

Let Tang Chen go?

The damned host would be able to clean out all of FTW’s savings!

In the end, there was only one person left.

Bai Cai sighed, “I’ll go.”

Chen Feng nodded.

Brother Cai was already used to it. He’d taken a lot of interviews last season.

From being anxious and flustered the first time to the thick-skinned shamelessness at the end, it had all been tempered by time.

FTW had a high win rate last year, and Close rarely gave interviews.

Yue Wenle’s strength was exhausted after a game, leaving just this little delicate vegetable that he could take out and make use of.

The audience watched eagerly, and the host was well prepared. As soon as Bai Cai came up onto the stage, everyone stared at him.

The scrolling comments were still noisy, “Why isn’t it Quiet? I want to see him!”

“You guys are only interested in new people and forget about the old. Are the pickled vegetables fangirls still there?!”

“Sorry, only FTW’s double jungler CP is real. God Bai, don’t come here and act as a light bulb.”

“Why didn’t Quiet come out? I think it would be interesting if he was interviewed.”

“As someone who has listened to Glory’s Mic Explosion King, I want to express that it might not just be interesting, it might even be colorful.”

“Yes yes yes, that sentence ‘give it to me, captain’, made my ears numb when I heard it…”

Fortunately Brother Cai couldn’t see the scrolling comments. Otherwise, he would go on strike if he saw it––did they think Laozi really wanted to be interviewed? Laozi’s worth… was also very high, okay?

A trace of disappointment skimmed over the host’s eyes. It wasn’t because Quiet’s popularity now suppressed Brother Cai, but because most of the questions she had on hand were related to Quiet. It was obviously more impactful if he answered them himself.

Of course, this was the representative FTW had sent over, and the organizers couldn’t interfere too much with that.

The host smiled and congratulated FTW on winning with a 2:0 score.

Bai Cai also replied with some formulaic words.

Next, the host’s words changed abruptly, “When faced with Close’s departure, is God Bai nervous?”

Bai Cai gave a superficial smile, “Of course I’m nervous.”

The host’s eyes lit up, “It seems that the captain being absent adds a burden to everyone. I wonder how it affects you all specifically? Is it convenient for God Bai to share with us?”

Bai Cai: “It’s not a big deal.”

The host: “Oh?”

Bai Cai: “When the captain is here, our jungler king will reluctantly act human; when our captain isn’t in the team, our jungler king no longer acts human.”

The host: “???”

Bai Cai picked up the microphone and said frankly, “Everyone should be careful. A Quiet that nobody is managing will bite people.”

Everyone on the internet: “………………..”

Wei Xiao, who was backstage, was amused, “Motherf*cker, Brother Cai!”

When Close wasn’t here, FTW was really nervous.

They weren’t nervous about losing the game, but rather, they were nervous that they couldn’t hold back the little lunatic in their team!

When the captain wasn’t there, was FTW just waiting to be slaughtered at will?

Dream on!

The other teams should wash their necks clean and wait to get shut out with a zero score!

The position of first place in the group belonged to FTW!

The scrolling comments exploded.

Some people applauded, some sneered, some cheered, and others yelled abuse…

Amidst this mixed crowd, the big boss with the ID LU sent out six bubbles to Bai Cai.

Some fans with sharp eyes caught this and laughed until their stomachs hurt.

“Big boss, your double standards are too obvious!”

“When they sent hearts to Quiet, they started off with 520.”

“They sent free bubbles to God Bai, and they only gave six of them!”

“If I was God Bai, I would die crying on the interview stage.”

“Hahahahahaha I get it, Big Boss LU is firmly in the double jungler party and doesn’t care about pickled vegetables.”

Today was a victorious day for FTW, in all senses.

First on the points table and first in net (victory or defeat within the group) points.

Wei Xiao was number one on the popularity rankings, and he was also number one in the global KDA rankings.

Finally, Brother Cai’s interview was the finishing touch. One ‘Quiet will bite people’ was basically tossed up onto the hot search.

When they were in the van on the way back to the base, everyone was happy and excited.

Chen Feng: “What do you want to eat tonight?”

Yue Wenle: “Potato-potato chips…”

Nobody paid any attention to his weak voice. Everyone else cheered, “Hotpot!”

How could they live up to their passionate performance if they didn’t eat hotpot after they’d won?

Wei Xiao’s heart grew itchy as soon they got into the car. He wanted to send Lu Feng a message, but he was also afraid of disturbing his sleep.

After spending more than ten hours on the plane, it hadn’t been easy for the captain to settle in. He had to rest well, and Wei Xiao couldn’t disturb him.

Hold back, hold back, hold back. Wei Xiao managed to control himself.

When they arrived at the hotpot restaurant, Brother Cai ordered the dishes. Some sort of 699 yuan wagyu beef, 788 yuan top grade lamb… taking advantage of the fact that the money he was spending wasn’t his own, he ordered everything that was ‘rich and powerful’.

Wei Xiao’s interest in food was so-so. He bit at his straw and drank his watermelon juice.

After ordering, Brother Cai looked at him, “What, why aren’t you happy after winning the game?”

Wei Xiao couldn’t be bothered to look at him.

Brother Cai inexplicably understood, “You miss the captain?”

Wei Xiao: “……”

Brother Cai was impervious, “If you miss him, then you miss him. What’re you putting on airs for? Hurry up and call the captain to give him the good news.”

Wei Xiao glared at him, “The captain needs to sleep.”

As an onlooker, Brother Cai saw things more clearly, “Are you stupid? It’s our first game, do you think the captain would be sleeping?”

Wei Xiao: “………… F*ck!”

Oh yeah, this was their first game. How could the captain be relieved enough to go to sleep?

He would quickly give him a call. He would report the good news so that the captain could sleep well.

Wei Xiao picked up his cell phone and got up.

Just then, Bai Cai exclaimed, “Oh holy shit, Brother Xiao, not bad.”

Wei Xiao was anxious, wanting to go out and make the call, “Hm?”

Bai Cai raised up his cell phone to show him, “Some big boss screwed you all the way up to the first place in the popularity rankings.”

Wei Xiao wasn’t interested in these superficial things. His heart was filled with Lu Feng, “Oh…”

Until Bai Cai added a sentence, “This ID’s inspired, they actually called themselves LU.”

Wei Xiao’s ears twitched, “What?”

Bai Cai pointed to the ID that had leveled up too high because it had sent out too many gifts and now had special effects wrapped around its name, “Look.”

A golden and sparkling LU, a shiny and flashing LU, a LU that was filled with love.

Wei Xiao blinked.

Brother Cai tsked twice, “If it wasn’t that the number of hearts that was gifted was too cringey, I would even think that it was the captain.”

Wei Xiao’s heart thumped, “What numbers.”

Bai Cai read them out rhythmically, “When you took First Blood, he gave you 520 hearts; when you got a double kill, he gave you 1314 hearts…”

Little Ning raised his hand, “I know what that means, this means I love you forever!”

Wei Xiao: “……”

Bai Cai sighed emotionally, “Rich people, tossing out 200,000 in one go. I also want… ah…”

He caught a glimpse of Wei Xiao from the corner of his eyes and was shocked, “Why are your ears red?”

Wei Xiao hefted his cell phone and went to leave, his voice muffled, “It’s hot.”

Bai Cai: “???”

The hotpot hadn’t even arrived yet, and he already felt hot?

Wei Xiao pushed the door open and stepped out, “I’m going out for air.”

Those in the room looked at each other, and Tang Chen hit the nail on the head, “Could it be that this LU is someone Wei Xiao knows?”

Ning Zhehan was also curious, “Brother Xiao’s girlfriend?”

Chen Feng, who’d guessed the truth, “…………”

Damn it, I’m already full even before the hotpot!
