Glory [e-sports]Ch115 - Captain, did you go there to treat your shoulder or study how to speak words of love?

The blood thief’s full name was the blood raven thief. HAurdR

Before tonight, this was a hero talent that sat on the bench. Not to mention in professional games, it was very rarely used even in passers-by games.

The blood raven thief was actually very cool with his dark tuxedo and top hat outfit. In his hand was a black cane, and he had a blood-colored raven on his left shoulder.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

 

When this talent had just launched, it had been a favorite for countless players. PeNFts

Not only did the blood raven thief look handsome, it also had remarkable skills; its passive would trigger a healing effect with every three basic attacks, leaving a blood raven feather that marked the opponent; its first skill was called the blood raven’s kiss, which would forcibly control the opponent for half a second and mark its opponent; the second skill was feather transform, which was a two section movement skill for attack and escape; its third skill was called raven fall, which could cause explosive damage once it hit a target that was marked by its raven feathers.

Its final ultimate move was called blood oath. As the name suggested, it took blood as an oath. Raven feathers would fill the skies, absorbing the blood of its enemies and using it to recover its own health.

 

From a technical perspective, this talent could both attack and defend. It also had a high survivability, and it was actually very good.

YOFWdp

This had indeed been the case when the talent spec first launched. Later on, the game developer daddies had nerfed him down, reducing the amount of health it could recover and increasing the difficulty of its operations. They’d chopped this cool brother into pieces.

 

It could attack? Oh, the ‘raven fall’ that could cause explosive damage had become as useless as chicken feathers.

It could defend? The feather transform’s movement directions had been reversed. Those who had crippled hands often didn’t understand why they ended up flying into someone else’s sword when they actually wanted to run away. Uj7l0r

The worst was the ultimate move: blood oath. Originally, the raven feathers would fall, and all living beings would lose health. Now… all living beings would hammer him down into a little brother.

 

It was with such a talent spec that Wei Xiao managed to perform beautifully. 

  oFyTeA

GOQ’s attempt to turn the tables was really beautiful. Regardless of whether it was their control or their DPS, all of it was there.

And Wei Xiao really had been caught off guard. That plummeting health bar proved everything.

 

But he didn’t panic. The blood thief abruptly used feather transform and attacked the squishy storm hunter. The passive that triggered after three attacks triggered his own healing effect as well as marking the storm hunter, then the blood raven’s kiss controlled the storm hunter who had wanted to attack him back just as he opened up the blood oath. VZLtRb

As the red raven’s feathers covered the sky, the storm hunter’s health bar plummeted like crazy, while the health bar of the blood thief who’d been about to die gradually filled up.

––Give me your blood, so that I can live.

This was the blood raven thief’s ability to fight back!

  yXsBjV

GOQ’s death knight responded quickly. Seeing that the storm hunter couldn’t hold on, he’d already started to help deal damage. Unfortunately, the blood raven thief who’d used his ultimate move to recover half his health didn’t retreat at all. He used his positioning to avoid being hit, then used the feather transform to pull away. It seemed like he was about to run away, but when the death knight chased after him, he turned around and used another three attacks to trigger his passive as well as the blood raven’s kiss.

The death knight who’d been controlled was stunned, and the blood thief whose skills were off cooldown used ‘raven fall’ again. The death knight who only had half his health fell under the blood thief’s black cane.

 

Then, Ning Zhehan arrived, and the giant shaman took the brunt of the immortal warlock’s wave of skills. Finally, his kill was taken away by the blood raven’s kiss. 9fec4Y

 

After this wave, GOQ’s vitality suffered great damage and they were left completely unable to lift up their heads again.

So, this ambush that had been brewing for such a long time, such a beautiful team fight opening, such awesome DPS, in the end…

Not only did they not manage to kill the blood thief, they’d also sent out a triple kill. The sound of crying in GOQ’s team chat was really loud! YedmPg

 

In the first game, FTW exploded GOQ’s crystal and won the game with overwhelming momentum.

In the second game, GOQ was just like a group of scared chickens, insta-banning the blood raven thief.

The scrolling comments were filled with sighs, “Hey, hey, hey, I still want to see God Q show off his blood raven!” uLf9Hb

“GOQ, don’t cower, what’s the point in banning? There are a total of six ban spots, can you ban them all?”

 

They really couldn’t ban them all. GOQ was currently performing the very meaning of ‘robbing Peter to pay Paul’.

As they banned and continued to ban, the back of the flustered GOQ coach chilled, “The berserker thief!” aECc0s

F*ck, they’d forgotten to ban the berserker thief.

GOQ’s jungler was still young. He spoke naively, “Perhaps FTW won’t snatch up the jungler position in the first slot.”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

And then…

Wei Xiao, who was in the first position, took the berserker thief. NHdioD

Everyone in GOQ: “……………………”

GOQ’s jungler Yuyu almost cried out loud.

This team didn’t play cards according to common sense. They did whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted QAQ!

The Wei Xiao who’d gotten the berserker thief––

Well, forget it, let’s not talk about this game. We’ll leave GOQ with a pair of pants at least.

This newcomer Quiet was really capable. He was a tough guy who could smash down the cresting waves on the beach with his strength!

Of course, there were also more than a few haters and jealous people, “F fans, wake up. They’re up against 3U next week, we’ll wait for your Daddy Q to show his true colors then.”

The fans held up the fort, “Asleep is someone that One Lamp Grandmaster brought out, so how will that be showing his true colors? That’s more like a tiger coming down from the mountain!”

”What does solo amount to? Your great demon king is number one in the world for solo, but what use is that? They still end up doing round trips in the global competitions.”

“Haha, has your 3U ever gotten a championship?” TD8ZAE

“Our 3U performed better in the globals than your FTW!”

“It’s just luck, don’t you feel ashamed talking about it?”

Alright then, fighting every day was normal. The China competition zone would be really cold and desolate if there wasn’t any fighting. qbF2AE

 

After the game ended, and they went backstage, Wei Xiao’s eyes went straight to his cell phone.

Brother Cai glanced over and felt that his heart was as clear as a mirror: It had been such a great game, he must want to show off to his sweetheart.

Brother Cai’s teeth hurt. O RgxQ

 

In fact, Wei Xiao didn’t really want to show off. He wanted to go look at the live broadcast studio and see LU…

Although he’d told Lu Feng not to waste money, he still wanted to see if he’d said anything in particular.

Sigh. j51Wov

Wei Xiao was a little melancholy. He hadn’t been able to talk properly with the captain all day; he missed him.

He hadn’t felt it during the game, but this emptiness after the game could only be filled up by the captain.

 

Chen Feng: “Who’s going up for the interview?” 4qhJ9K

He’d asked this intentionally.

Otherwise, Brother Cai would’ve gone up onto the stage with just a look from him.

 

At this time, Wei Xiao was still suffering from the bitterness of parting. He might as well accept an interview to relax. “I’ll go.” 5gWO9l

Chen Feng nodded, “Yes.”

Today, Wei Xiao could go up for the interview because firstly, the question about Close leaving the team had already been dealt with by Bai Cai yesterday, and it wouldn’t be interesting if the host asked it again today; secondly, Quiet’s performance had really been brilliant today, especially that counter attack with the blood thief that had stunned the whole audience. With a topic like that to focus on, they wouldn’t bring up old affairs again.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

 

Sure enough, Chen Feng had figured out the host thoroughly. When Wei Xiao came up onto the stage, she didn’t think of asking any gossip questions at all. It was all… lhTUEI

“God Q, the blood thief was played really well today!”

The host was a girl, and girls always had a natural sense of goodwill towards little brothers who looked so good.

Not only was he handsome, his smile was a little wicked, and it was just all too attractive.

  mofLCb

Wei Xiao was very easygoing, “Standard operations.”

To hell with your ‘standard’! Everyone in GOQ threw up blood.

 

The host smiled broadly and continued asking, “This standard level is really not the same as usual, especially during that last 1v3 wave. When faced with such a tough situation, how did God Q manage to turn the tables?” pbmuDc

Wei Xiao spoke very sincerely, “I didn’t think too much about it…”

The host was all ears, “Oh?”

Wei Xiao: “I just did it.”

  zVTdLX

Host: “……”

Audience: “……”

The scrolling comments were filled with ‘hahahahaha’, and then someone started the trash talk, “Be careful, GOQ, the three of you have been surrounded by Quiet!”

  c0YiIR

Host: “Cough, your brave and fearless momentum is worth learning from.”

Wei Xiao nodded, “There are also some details, is there a video replay here? I can tell you about it in detail…”

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

The host was a little confused, “???”

What was going on? Sn6aej

 

Bai Cai, who was backstage, felt his heart stutter, “F*ck, don’t give him the video replay, absolutely don’t!”

Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenle’s reactions were also, “……”

All the players who’d seen the grandmaster’s ‘game replay videos’ all sucked in a breath, wishing they could reach out their hands up in prayer and beg to be let off. kpYuPF

 

Fortunately, the interview table didn’t have this function. Although the host was curious, she could only try to smooth things out and say, “When it comes to a replay, we’d better leave it to the commentators.”

Wei Xiao: “Alright.”

What’s the deal with your regretful tone? It feels like you really would blow your own horn if you were given the opportunity. tOPdT3

 

Yes.

The grandmaster’s disciples all expressed, “He really can!”

  te3rnC

After the game, they went out to eat as usual.

Because of Brother Cai’s presence, Wei Xiao forced himself not to look at his cell phone.

After they got to the restaurant, and everyone sat down, Wei Xiao got up, “I’m going to the bathroom.”

Bai Cai stared at him. OEgiGY

Wei Xiao stuffed his left hand into his trouser pocket and went out, pretending not to have seen anything.

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Brother Cai sent him a message, “Hold on, don’t get carried away!”

Wei Xiao: “……” AdLr4k

Seeing that he wasn’t replying, Bai Cai ‘threatened’ him, “Be careful about not making the captain lose interest in treatment.”

Wei Xiao regretted it. If he’d known it would be like this, he would’ve let Brother Cai get immersed in the team pressure and worry about whether he could hold up, rather than talk to him about this issue.

 

Bai Cai felt a little more at ease after giving his warnings, but then he saw Wei Xiao’s reply, “As long as the captain doesn’t flirt with me, I’ll be able to hold on.” 3N6MYA

Brother Cai: “…………”

Half a beat later, Brother Cai replied to him, “What are you thinking? How could the captain flirt with you!”

When you were teasing him blindly during the winter training camp, the captain managed to remain unmoved and unaffected. Now…

In any case, Brother Cai couldn’t imagine how the cold and aloof great demon king would flirt with people. iKYQaU

 

Wei Xiao clicked open the live broadcast room. When he saw the pink LU, the corners of his mouth couldn’t be held down at all.

He made a voice call.

The voice of the great demon king who would never flirt with people was so sexy it could tease people to death, “Awesome.” ldXVWG

Wei Xiao’s ears itched. He clutched at his cell phone and spoke in a low voice, “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t give more gifts.”

Lu Feng paused, “I couldn’t help it.”

 

Wei Xiao’s eyes curved, “There’s no reason why you couldn’t help it.” yQZsEH

Lu Feng: “The blood thief is too attractive, I couldn’t help wanting to give him gifts.”

Wei Xiao: “……”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

F*ck! He would die from the captain’s sweet talk sooner or later

  yz2Ksj

“Captain…” Wei Xiao tried hard to pull things back in the proper direction, “Did you go there to treat your shoulder or study how to speak words of love?”

Lu Feng sighed, “Neither.”

Wei Xiao’s heart was itchy, “Eh?”

Lu Feng: “I’m here to miss you.” EoxLUz

Wei Xiao: “………………”

Lost, he lost.

Wei Xiao, who’d won the game, lost to his boyfriend instead!

  jXpJZI

Wei Xiao’s heart was still focused on proper matters. After a few sweet exchanges, he asked, “You went to get a check up yesterday, how’d it go?”

Lu Feng reassured him, “Systematic physiotherapy will begin the day after tomorrow.”

Wei Xiao was worried, “Will the physiotherapy hurt?”

Lu Feng: “No.” hRD9rm

 

Wei Xiao paused briefly, then continued, “You have to listen to the doctor’s words, and it’s enough to just send me voice messages when you’re idle. Don’t tire out your shoulder.”

Lu Feng’s heart felt soft and warm, “It’s not that serious.”

Wei Xiao was reluctant to hang up, “Is the blood thief really that attractive?” F5roAm

Lu Feng: “……”

Wei Xiao teased him deliberately, “So attractive that you couldn’t help giving gifts.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Lu Feng satisfied him, “Because it’s you.”

Wei Xiao: “!!” wtgucv

He’d clearly been looking for sugar to eat, but when he really got it, it was so sweet that he himself couldn’t stand it.

 

In view of how he might take advantage of how there was no competition now to fly to North America overnight if the conversation continued, he could only restrain himself and hang up the phone.

He didn’t want to go back to the room after hanging up. He dawdled instead and sent Lu Feng a message, “I want to see you.” qFIS2w

Lu Feng: “We’ll video call when you get back to the base.”

Wei Xiao: “No way, you should sleep.” It was already very early in the morning over there.

Lu Feng: “Tomorrow?”

Wei Xiao licked his lips, “Take a photo for me.” IJYlmL

Lu Feng: “……”

Wei Xiao: “Just one photo, let me see you.”

 

“Wuwuwu, how could we have failed in that wave!” t2KeFj

“I feel like I didn’t make any mistakes. Take a look at my ultimate move, the blood thief was directly sent flying.”

“I didn’t mess up, either. Look at my series of linked moves, they were all full-on, okay!”

“My arrows also caused enough damage, take a look at how much health he dropped.”

“But…” St5dJx

It was the three from GOQ who were crying there bitterly. This restaurant was full every day, and those who didn’t make a reservation would have to wait. The three of them were waiting in the waiting area, watching the game replay and crying loudly as they waited.

Wei Xiao just happened to pass by.

The waiter had already peeked at them several times. MKGNgB

Did they need to go so far? It was just a game, did they have to take it so seriously?

An outsider who didn’t watch e-sports wouldn’t understand.

 

GOQ’s little jungler, “Quiet isn’t human. Take a look at that feather transform…” MalPBA

A light, floating voice inserted itself into the conversation with no sense of dissonance, “This feather transform is just routine operation. Pay attention to my basic attacks after the feather transform. The second part of the feather transform followed by a blood raven’s kiss, with a third basic attack at the same time. The passive healing effect was the key point to survival.”

The three people from GOQ hadn’t yet realized that there was an additional person amongst them.

 

“Yeah, yeah, this passive health recovery is too accurate, it was just enough to offset the damage from my arrows.” JDzlhL

“In fact, that’s nothing much. The real highlight is the positioning later on. Do you see that? That made me able to avoid the collision from the death knight.”

 

“Yes, yes, yes, Laozi felt that it was 100% going to hit, but he ended up dodging it!”

“And here, you know the blood oath’s passive? It can grant immunity against the full amount of damage from the target who had the most health sucked away, that’s why the storm hunter couldn’t kill me.” if3tCH

 

“Holy shit, this passive has conditions that need to be met. Did Quiet manage to meet the conditions? How could he be so calm and self-sustaining in such a short time, in such a dangerous situation?” 

“It’s nothing much, it’s just natural talent.”

  oQ1fuM

The three people who’d realized something finally stepped out of their crying mood.

They noticed that something wasn’t right and turned around––

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Wei Xiao gave them a friendly smile.

The three from GOQ: “…………………..”

a pair of pants – if they lost too miserably it would be ‘losing until they lost their pants’ (or even their underwear). here, the author’s saying that she won’t describe how they lost so that they can still maintain some dignity
