Glory [e-sports]Ch136 - How was this Quiet? This was clearly Close!

translator: xiin
editors: apricot & juurensha

What was even more explosive was that these were the real and genuine nine light arcs! zETJ1h

FTW fans were proud, filling the screen like crazy, “Inherited shadow thief, nine light arcs, FTW’s twin junglers are badass!”

The team that once held a legend like the Team of Gods and had a great demon king like Close now also had a big treasure called Quiet.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The old fans all burst into tears––they’d seen the team shine, and then watched as it fell into the dust. Now, they saw that new hope had sparked up again.

How could they not cry! gSsqoG

They were crying too loudly, okay?!

 

The commentators were also very excited. Today’s commentator Brother Big Mouth was a die-hard Close fan and couldn’t possibly be any more familiar with the nine light arcs. Unfortunately, he’d memorized the set of moves and understood the mechanism, but his hand speed and on-the-spot reaction ability didn’t allow him to actually play out this special move.

Brother Big Mouth’s speaking speed was amazing. He spoke at a rapid-fire pace as he explained the combos, making even the audience’s scalps feel numb as they listened, their eyes shining and their palms itching.

Money, who’d mixed in with the crowd. “This brat’s really good.”

Moonlit remained silent, staring at the shining on the screen, his pair of elongated black eyes filled with fire!

 

Wei Xiao hadn’t taken out the shadow thief during their solo games that day. XqZTUV

Why?

Because it hadn’t been necessary.

He’d wanted to stimulate Moonlit’s fighting spirit, but he hadn’t needed to take the shadow thief into the arena.

Moonlit clenched his fists tight, pressing down his surging desire to win. aAYKNX

 

The ones who were the most confused were the eight people on the field (except for Brother Tang).

Brother Cai was stunned for half a second. “F*ck, did you practice it in secret?”

The mechanism for the nine light arcs meant that it was relatively easier to brush out when the hero was higher levelled. The ultimate move was only available from level six, so the overall damage of the skill wasn’t very high at this level, making it very difficult to stack up the damage values for so many light arcs.  X9cDIk

If the difficulty level of brushing out nine light arcs at level 18 was 8/10, then the difficulty level at level 6 was 10/10.

Yes, the difficulty level limit was 10.

For Wei Xiao to be able to brush out nine light arcs at level six, it meant that he really could brush them out whenever he wanted to. jZq3Yw

When it was matched up with the words he’d said before in the team chat, “I, Quiet, can sit right here and brush out nine light arcs with my eyes closed, but I’ll never admit that I brushed them out with my eyes open.”

When it came to putting on an act, Brother Cai only respected Wei Xiao!

 

Tang Chen was still cheerful. “Badass.” YDLxK7

Little Ning also grew excited, “Brother Xiao’s too handsome!”

Yue Wenle: “……”

Although he hadn’t picked up the thread of the conversation, the ice mage was eager and ready for action, very much wanting to rush up and fight a big battle.

ice mage – xiin: i suspect that the author actually typoed this, it’s probably more likely to be the hero Yue Wen-le is playing (a marksman)… it doesn’t make sense for the mage (Little Ning’s) to ‘not speak but be excited’ when he just spoke pZouhb

 

Wei Xiao didn’t talk much that night, but each word was like thunder in their ears, “Old Yue, wait for me.”

Yue Wenle held back his small, tentative step forward. “… Okay.”

  q Pwl5

After taking a triple kill, Wei Xiao rushed straight to the bottom lane.

At this time, only two people from HU were still alive. One was the top-laner who was having a one on one ‘conversation’ with Brother Tang, and the other was the marksman exchanging health with Yue Wenle in the bottom lane.

Wei Xiao’s movement speed was very fast when he was in stealth mode. Bai Cai couldn’t catch up with him at all, but Brother Vegetable wasn’t needed at all as the shadow thief shifted right into the opponent’s face, stacking up shadow attacks on the jungle creeps to reduce his cooldowns before dashing under the tower to kill HU’s bottom lane marksman!

  tfekA6

Commentator Brother Big Mouth’s voice was bright, “HU’s gold hunter seems to have scented danger, but the shadow thief moved even faster than he expected. The second segment of his assault took him directly around the back of the tower, and then he used the stone man as a springboard to dart under the tower. The gold hunter used flash very decisively, but unfortunately, the shadow thief who has taken three kills dealt too much damage. Two shadow attacks were enough to empty out his health!”

Another kill entered his accounts. When they opened up the economic panel, Wei Xiao’s farm was already equal to HUs jungler and support players’ farm added together.

For a jungler position to have this kind of terrifying snowballing farm meant that in this game, the shadow thief was thoroughly released from any fetters and could let go completely! XawdWt

At first, the players from HU were still trying to remain calm. 0EjYSC

Han Gu: “It’s an accident, he does indeed have the ability to brush out nine light arcs, but believe me, he can’t keep it up continuously!”

 

WW believed him. “That’s right, it’s already pretty good that he could brush it out once in the game. There can’t be a second time.”

Even Close couldn’t brush out light arcs everywhere during a game. Perhaps it was because it was unnecessary, but they preferred to believe that it was because it couldn’t be done. xYaW5g

 

What a joke. This kind of high difficulty operation couldn’t be given out like it was free. Were they immortals or something?

It was hard to say if Quiet was an immortal or not, but he was definitely a demon.

During the entire game, the sky would be filled with light arcs as long as the shadow thief appeared. ikwYaq

Once.

Twice.

Three times.

…… PMoKk2

 

HU was numb. Their team chat was silent, and everyone’s expressions were very ugly.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

It was impossible to win this game. FTW’s total economy was 12,000 gold higher than theirs, and there was nothing they could use to turn the tables.

What’s more, they had absolutely no way to deal with this shadow thief! DdqJ4v

Wei Xiao had already reached the max level and was wearing six full pieces of equipment. He was also blessed with Bai Cai’s support equipment and had those inhuman nine light arcs. The five from HU were completely powerless and unable to fight back!

 

The audience were immersed in watching. “F*ck, that’s too amazing!”

“Honestly speaking, I don’t like this kind of crushing game because there’s no suspense, but this match is really too cool!” vJnA8t

“I’m not going to say anything else, I’m just going to go back and practice the shadow thief!”

 

The director put in a small shot of Wei Xiao.

It was just a small display box at the bottom of the screen, and it was a direct shot from the front. Reasonably speaking, it should make people look ugly, but Wei Xiao was too photogenic–– BEJ5Tx

The headset pressed down his slightly curly black hair, blocking his pale ears from sight and highlighting the thin lines of his jaw. The black headset cable ran down his neck, catching accidentally on his collar and framing the faintly visible collarbone that was illuminated by the light from the screen.

 

Q fans all took screenshots and shared them everywhere, attracting a new group of players to join and settle in Glory.

Of course, that all happened in the future. UunAlR

 

FTW’s first match against HU was simply like the shadow thief’s personal show.

From the triple kill at the start to the legendary at the end, Wei Xiao killed everyone in HU.

He had a huge farm advantage, extraordinary personal operation, and under this level of absolute pressure, there was no need to think too much about it. Gudio9

Just fight and be done with it!

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

There was no doubt that the red ‘Victory’ word belonged to FTW here.

HU stared at the ‘Defeat’ on their screen in silence k25Vl0

When the camera switched to Han Gu, it showed that his facial features, which had originally held a trace of meanness, were becoming increasingly distorted.

He was trying to suppress the feeling of shame, but the feeling of being on tenterhooks made it difficult for him to sit still.

His fingers curled nervously, and his mouth pressed together into a slit. The voices of his teammates came over the headset: Strange languages, clumsy means of communication, implicit criticism and doubt…

All of it poured into his mind until he couldn’t help shouting, “Enough!” l F6v5

The team chat felt quiet, and everyone looked at him in dismayed shock.

 

Han Gu knew that he’d lost his composure, but he couldn’t help it.

WW said, “Let’s ban the shadow thief in the next round.” 2Dvh95

Things had already reached this point. HU would go crazy if they still didn’t ban it.

Han Gu: “……”

Should they ban the shadow thief?

Han Gu couldn’t answer. uC6zW0

In order to guide public opinion, he’d deliberately answered Wei Xiao’s words on Weibo.

 

––Wei Xiao: “Keep working hard, I also want to brush out nine light arcs.”

––Han Gu had replied: “Don’t worry, HU will never ban the shadow thief.” Av2IDX

 

This was a sentence meant to mess with Wei Xiao’s mentality, but unexpectedly, it had backfired.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Honestly speaking, HU really hadn’t thought of banning the shadow thief before.

Even if they hadn’t had training matches with FTW before, everyone was clear regarding Wei Xiao’s situation. xTElmO

No matter how strict the clubs were in training matches, it was impossible for them to keep everything airtight.

The fans didn’t know, but all the clubs all knew––

Wei Xiao’s nine light arcs were uncontrollable.

  dafVLo

So, they didn’t need to target it too much in BP. Releasing the shadow thief and saving a ban position was a good thing.

Compared with the shadow thief, the very popular berserker thief was more worthy of being banned.

 

There hadn’t been anything wrong with Han Gu’s words, and he’d also been able to suppress Wei Xiao’s arrogance briefly. VUyZxG

But who could’ve known…

Quiet’s shadow thief was actually so strong!

 

How was this Quiet? This was clearly Close! Wgk lT

 

How could they not ban this shadow thief in the next match?

The audience would flame HU until they became dogs.

But if they banned it, then Han Gu’s face would really be swollen from slapping his own face. A30O9v

 

HU’s coach obviously didn’t care if Han Gu’s face was swollen or not. Their first ban went straight to the shadow thief.

The audience sighed, “If you have the ability, then don’t ban it, hey.”

“Wasn’t HU very arrogant? Weren’t they being provocative? Didn’t they say that they would never ban the shadow thief?” YwLaSR

“This face slapping speed was a little fast.”

“And it hurt a lot.”

“Sigh, have some backbone, HU. Let the shadow thief out to play, let your Daddy Q have some fun with it.”

  HbumE5

Han Gu couldn’t see the scrolling comments, but he seemed to still be able to hear the sarcastic voices. His nerves were all stretched out to the extreme.

The coach sensed it and patted him on the shoulder, saying, “Keep your mentality steady.”

Han Gu froze.

  aYwZXj

Coach: “We’ve just lost one small match, what are you in a panic for?”

Han Gu’s hands and feet were cold. He suddenly understood what a bloody collapse of mentality was like.

He’d always engaged in messing with other people’s mentality, but this time he finally tasted it for himself––

It was like having a huge boulder pressing down on his chest or someone pouring hot oil all over his head. It was painful and tense, but there was nothing he could do about it. HlAMxy

 

Chen Feng looked at Wei Xiao. “What do you want to use?”

Wei Xiao: “Berserker thief.”

Chen Feng sighed, “Okay.” e9QwZT

If he still couldn’t tell that Wei Xiao was in a bad mood, then he might as well give up being a coach.

But he couldn’t say anything.

Please visit chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

When other players were in a bad mood, they would play games blindly and collapse until their whole world was destroyed.

His own cub’s style was different. There would also be a collapse when he was in a bad mood, but the ones collapsing were on the other side. Just look at HU’s jungler, he’d collapsed so hard it was really like his world had split apart. dlwxTe

 

Brother Cai asked Wei Xiao quietly, “Brother Xiao, what’s wrong?”

The sun had to be coming up from the West for Bai Cai to call him ‘Brother’.

Wei Xiao glanced at him sidelong, “Do you want to win?” SFVflx

Brother Cai: “……”

Little Ning shouted, “I want to win.”

Wei Xiao: “Mm.”

It was a single word, a single syllable, yet it inexplicably held the same feeling as the great demon king. yGiVWL

Brother Cai’s heart leapt with worry. He always felt that the translation for these two sentences was––lie down and settle in.

 

Alright then, he’d lie down first, then they could talk about the rest later!

In any case, there was an 80 to 90 percent chance that Wei Little Xiao’s mood was related to the captain. As long as it wasn’t that his confession had failed… cWJy0d

Holy shit!

Brother Cai scared himself into a cold sweat.

He didn’t dare to think about it, he didn’t dare to think about it any more. Brother Cai was worried that his own mentality would collapse.

If they lost to HU because of him, he would have to die a death of smashing his head against the keyboard––it would be better than getting chopped to death by Old Wei. d0UYvo

 

The audience’s enthusiasm decreased significantly when they saw that Quiet was using the berserker thief.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

The berserker thief didn’t have the same heaven-defying mechanism as the shadow thief. When it showed off, it wasn’t all due to personal operation, but based on team cooperation.

As everyone knew, FTW was a fragmented team, and they were still working on their team’s tacit understanding. QjGDSt

And then…

The audiences nearly lost their chins.

 

At the start of the match, FTW’s mid-laner, jungler, and support all charged straight towards HU. 7AGmXN

Han Gu was in the process of taking down the red buff creep and was taken by surprise when he checked his field of vision. He panicked and immediately wanted to hide.

But the berserker thief’s black scythe had already flown over silently, locking around his throat.

Han Gu: “!”

The level one berserker thief didn’t have the ability to pull him over. Locking onto the target only increased the damage of its basic attacks. Han Gu’s HP was healthy, and it wasn’t to the point where he’d get instakilled. hHIXNa

But…

This series of knife attacks that came one after another was almost like death by dismemberment. It would’ve been better if they’d instakilled him instead!

 

System Announcement–– enJxOU

FTW.Quiet killed HU.Han.

Quiet took First Blood!

 

The scrolling comments were a little delighted, “Han Gu was sacrificed to the heavens in exchange for boundless power. Charge, God Q!” 35c14U

  1. Although I am vey happy to see this Badass Wei, I miss that shamelessness of his.

    Anyways, Thank you for the chapter.

  2. I love this kind of badass Wei Xiao but i’m also worrieddd- What’s gonna happen next with Lu Feng’s shoulder??🤧

    Thank you for the chapter!!💜💜💜

  3. Thanks for the chapter! It amuses to no end that when the little devil is in a bad mood, he goes into permanent Destroyer mode, leaving rubble behind, exploding instead of imploding.

  4. To think about it, Wei Xiao always remains so damn focused on the game when he’s in a bad mood that he sends everyone into seclusion and the fact that he’s so focused maybe cuz he doesn’t wanna think abt the sad things and like?!?! trying to cope with the situation and all is making me sad tf

  5. This Xiao Xiao is so cool but I miss the one who makes me smile and giggles every time while reading 😢

    Thanks for the chapter ❤❤

  6. That’s what happens when someone who usually talks a lot turns quiet😌 No puns intended. So they should be scared that Quiet becomes quiet.

    Thanks for the chapter 👍🏻♥️

  7. They kept wanting to flying over to each other when things were on a high but I really think now might be the best time for LF to fly back and comfort his baby. Although the best consolation would be if the physiotherapy helped him recover some more.
