Chapter 144: Wei Xiao: Who couldve known that I would encounter love on a street corner? (1/2)
There was no doubt that FTW was in for a tough fight.
On the substitute bench, Asleep had woken up long ago and was staring intently at the screen.
The camera would occasionally sweep over, stopping on him for a moment.
The youth who was normally lazy and half awake was now leaning forward in his seat. He wasn’t wearing his team uniform, and his hair had been arranged casually. His black sweater was very wide, making his shoulders and waist appear very narrow. His eyes were direct, and his hands were close together, his index fingers supporting his chin. He looked attentive and serious.
There was no need to doubt it, and the fans in the scrolling comments started their shrill screams again.
“It’s Sleep God with his eyes open!”
“I feel that he’s watching Captain Fu. Look at that gaze, that appearance. it’s the little wolf dog gong that I love!”
“Sorry, my Captain Fu isn’t a shou.”
“Sorry, my Cong Yi never wears green hats.”
“Sorry, he’s clearly staring at Quiet!”
The players were all too good looking. The CP fans really couldn’t be blamed for getting too into their ships and starting another fight over them.
Of course, compared with the scrolling comments from tens of thousands of haters, this was just the tip of the iceberg and was quite wholesome in comparison.
The scrolling comments were already scolding heatedly, “What the hell is going on with FTW? Laozi put 50,000 betting coins on you, stand the hell up for me!”
“Haha, I knew that FTW was done for the moment that Quiet took the berserker thief.”
“What’s going on with FTW? Didn’t they see how TPT messed with 3U? How dare they come without any countermeasures?”
“His ego must be inflated. He probably thinks that his berserker thief’s better than Asleep’s.”
“I haven’t liked watching Quiet since a long time ago. Hurry up and mess up, what’s a newcomer acting so crazy for.”
How the audience was acting didn’t matter, what was important were the ten players in the field.
The game had gone on for nearly thirty minutes, and TPT was ahead of FTW by 7000 farm.
What did that mean?
Eurostar, who had the highest farm in TPT, had one more full piece of equipment than Wei Xiao, who was the one with the highest farm in FTW.
Even Wei Xiao’s farm was so far behind, let alone the farm of the others.
Little Ning had practiced his ice mage a lot recently. Although his mentality was a little broken, he was still good at freezing people. Other than Fu Li, he’d basically managed to freeze everyone else.
Oh… He hadn’t frozen Eurostar though. This brat was too good at surviving. Everyone in his family could die, but he, as a big treasure, had to continue living. It was unknown what he’d experienced to make him so afraid of death.
FTW’s state became weaker in the later stages.
It was already bad enough that their operations could be seen through, but there were also disadvantages in their line-up.
Based on FTW’s line-up that was stronger in the early stages, they’d have no way to fight once Eurostar was able to stand up fully on his own!
What to do?
Continuing on like this was just like sitting there waiting for death.
This wasn’t Wei Xiao’s style, nor was it FTW’s style!
Wei Xiao took a light breath. “Don’t think about anything. Just fight.”
Since the other side could basically guess what they were doing no matter what, they might as well just let loose and fight.
If they were going to be overcautious like this, then they might as well roll up their sleeves and go for it.
Ning Zhehan still felt guilty. “Um…”
Wei Xiao: “Don’t worry about anything. Just judge the situation according to your intuition.”
Ning Zhehan was stunned.
Wei Xiao: “Remember that time when we played against GOQ?”
Ning Zhehan suddenly saw the light. “I remember!”
Wei Xiao: “Find the feeling from that time.”
Ning Zhehan’s eyes lit up. “Okay!”
Everyone could hear his words. Yue Wenle and Tang Chen also understood him.
In fact, Bai Cai was a little confused. He was used to playing with Wei Xiao and cooperating with him had already become instinctual, so he couldn’t get into the same state as everyone else when they played against GOQ.
Later on, Chen Feng had mentioned it during the game replay review that he’d seen the shadow of Yan Jiang.
At the time, Bai Cai had been puzzled, because he hadn’t experienced it.
No matter how Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle described it, he couldn’t feel this so-called ‘smooth and free’.
Beneath the stage, Chen Feng leaned back in his chair and relaxed.
Cong Yi noticed it. “It seems that FTW really can break through this game.”
Chen Feng: “It will be hard to turn things around in this match, but they’re trying.”
As long as it was effective, FTW wouldn’t be afraid of Fu Li’s calculations in the next two matches!
Cong Yi looked at the screen and could feel a sense of disconnect.
Asleep’s voice was low, “Stiff.”
Others may feel that this statement was vague when they heard it, but Cong Yi understood. What Asleep was saying was: FTW’s overall state was very rigid.
Indeed…
In the first half of the game, they could feel the tacit understanding that FTW had honed over the first half of the regular season, but this tacit understanding had been completely lost by the end of the game.
They seemed to be back in the same state they’d been in their first game of the regular season, back in that awkward breaking-in period.
The audience was all swearing, “Stupid FTW, their mentalities have collapsed!”
“Are they starting to send kills to the other side? If you don’t have any fighting spirit, then don’t play. What the hell is this.”
“Don’t play around with Laozi’s betting coins!”
“This is the God Q that you guys praise up to the skies. Let’s change his name to Waste Q, it sounds better.”
All the kings who had loud mouths filled up the scrolling comments. With that hand speed, they should be able to rush up into the 100 star rankings in Glory!
In the first game, FTW lost.
In the last group fight, Wei Xiao killed the arrogant and domineering Eurostar, but Fu Li charmed him and sent him back to the fountain.
In fact, the group fight had started off well. FTW’s farm was only behind by 1000, and there was a chance for them to turn the tables and win the match.
Unfortunately, their losses at the start had been too large, and they were still trying to find a feel for the pace of the game in the later stage. By the time they’d achieved some results, TPT had already won the game.
The good thing was…
This was a BO3 game. There was no need to panic after losing a match, they still had a chance!
Chen Feng came over, pulling down his headphones and attempting to cheer them up, “Not bad, you guys found a feel for it.”
Ning Zhehan spoke in a whisper, “We lost miserably.”
Wei Xiao stared at the screen. Coach, if they release the shadow thief, snatch it up.”
Chen Feng’s gaze grew sharp, “Okay.”
On the TPT side.
Eurostar was bold and elated. “5v5 is so satisfying. Just thinking about how I, Eurostar-star, actually had a chance to smear the grandmaster all over the ground.”
Fu Li released his mouse and picked up the thermos cup beside him. He spoke slowly and leisurely, “Ban the berserker thief in the next match.”
Eurostar blinked, “It shouldn’t be to that point…”
Fu Li: “Quiet has some skill.”
It was rare for Eurostar to see such a serious expression on his captain’s face. “… Let the shadow thief out?”
Fu Li: “Yes.”
Eurostar thought about it, then said, “There isn’t enough sample material. The nine light arcs aren’t as easy to target.”
Fu Li: “That’s why we need to collect samples.”
The second match started immediately. The BP segment went by faster than before, and it could be seen that both sides had ideas of their own.
