Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal
Chapter 1087: League of Legends
“Surf the net? What’s so interesting about it?” Gu Feifei was a little depressed. “Did you bring me here just to go online?”
“How can that be? I have to take a look at the latest news. I have not been here in a long time.” Hong Dali pulled Gu Feifei into the Internet cafe and threw their ID cards onto the counter. “Two computers. Deposit one hundred each.”
“Okay.” The cashier at the counter collected the money and turned the computers on to make sure they were working fine. Then, he returned the ID cards to Hong Dali. “The first floor is full now. However, there are computers available on the second floor.”
“Got it!” This feeling is great! It has been a long time!
He pulled Gu Feifei and ran upstairs. The cashier looked in the direction they had run off in and muttered, “I have heard of beauty and the beast. Today, I saw a beautiful man and a dinosaur. This is absolutely invincible!”
This Internet cafe that Hong Dali had entered was called the Paramount Internet Cafe. It was a relatively high-end cafe. Its displays were all 24-inch large-screen LCDs. The sofas were also very comfortable. The most important thing was that there were many computers. They would often hold League of Legends competitions. League of Legends national competitions were also often held here. Many great players came here and it was very popular.
Because this was a competition venue, Paramount Internet Cafe had one very special feature. The girls who often came here were very beautiful. After all, professional players in League of Legends were highly valued, and the people who loved online games were crazy about them.
At this time, almost all the users in the Internet cafe were playing League of Legends. Gu Feifei looked around. She was a little curious and asked Hong Dali, “What game are they playing? So many of them are playing it?”
“This?” Hong Dali explained to Gu Feifei, “This is called League of Legends. It’s a very popular fighting game. Want to try playing?”
There was something that could instantly turn a person into someone amazing with copious amounts of power. It could also turn a normal person into a lustful beast. This thing was the Internet.
At this time, on the second floor of the Paramount Internet Cafe, a large group of people was gathered, watching a team playing a game.
Hong Dali joined the crowd curiously, dragging Gu Feifei along with him. The match was at its height and the audience was commenting non-stop. “A Challenger-level team match is different from regular matches. Too cool! The moves!” “Yes, they are invincible!” “Quick look, their entire team is going to get killed again!”
Hong Dali and Gu Feifei craned their necks to look from within the crowd. At this time, the battle was fierce. The two sides had started a team battle. The attack was extremely brutal. After a while, one of their team members accidentally died and everything went downhill from there, resulting in the entire team being wiped.
“Aiya, we lost again!” “It’s a pity, it’s a pity. Sigh, it was so close.” “Yeah, we lost again, sigh.”
After losing the game, one of the five leaned back, took out a cigarette and lit it. He took a drag and smiled bitterly. “Well, we lost again. That’s five in a row. Damn.”
Actually, it was none of Hong Dali’s business if they won or lost. But when Hong Dali saw his face, he immediately froze and blurted a name out. “Xiaoyu?”
Xiaoyu was a good friend who grew up in the orphanage together with Hong Dali before his death. They were closer than brothers.
Therefore, when Xiaoyu turned around, Hong Dali recognized him immediately.
“You are…” Xiaoyu looked at Hong Dali, his expression curious. “Do you know me?”
“Ah…” Hong Dali paused for a moment, then smiled. “I heard that you are a good player and have come to see you.” He could not let slip his identity as a transmigrator. That would be troublesome.
“Oh, hehe. Hello.” Xiaoyu was very cordial. He smiled at Hong Dali, then turned back, thinking hard about the tactics to use for the next battle. Just as he was deep in thought, the messenger icon on his computer screen flashed. Xiaoyu clicked the messenger window open. On the top of the chat window was a name: “Glorious Intent.Brother Qiang”. “How is it? Have you recovered from the shock yet? Want us to slaughter you another time or two?”
Oh, this was an arranged match?
“Our form is not good today. Another day.” Xiaoyu typed.
Glorious Intent.Brother Qiang sent another smiley face and said, “If you can’t do it, say so. Why make so many excuses?”
Xiaoyu’s face did not look too good. After all, everyone was watching. Gu Feifei whispered to Hong Dali, “Is he your friend? Do you know him?”
“Kind of.” Hong Dali nodded and then sniffled. He said glumly, “Unfortunately, I came in a hurry today. If only I brought the girl at home who plays games every day here with me, she would have trashed them.”
Hong Dali was naturally referring to Lin Zixuan. She was a gaming genius. Hong Dali could see that she was much stronger than the few people who were playing today.
“Hehe, this is a team match?” Gu Feifei had been watching very intently and quickly pointed out the shortcomings in Xiaoyu’s team. “I saw that idiot on the top was always a half-step behind. It was obvious he would lose fighting against experts.”
Gu Feifei was like a poisonous snake. The boy who had taken the top path felt a little insulted. “Who the hell are you? I have been playing for such a long time and participated in numerous competitions. I have played for so long and in several games. Who the f**k are you to come here and point at this and that?”
They had already lost five matches in a row and his mood was already bad. And now a female who looked like a T-Rex had come over to pick on him. It was natural that he would be in a bad mood.
He threw the mouse out angrily, making a loud noise. Everyone who knew how that mouse was worth felt an ache.
That was the Razor GX310 mouse recommended by the OMG professional team. It was a good piece of equipment for a player and could be considered a superb product.
Of course, the onlookers were mostly just curious. They had no idea where this T-Rex-like girl had come from. The person next to her looked like a cocky, arrogant young master. He simply smiled and said nothing. Several girls nearby covered their mouths and giggled, all of them gloating. Pretty girls were wayward like that. Regardless of their expressions, there would be people who liked looking at them. The boy whom Gu Feifei was talking about glanced at them, his expression unsure. Then, he stared angrily at Gu Feifei.
Although this male was in a bad mood, it was obvious that he had vented his frustration on the wrong target—Gu FeiFei was definitely the fiercer between the two of them.
“If you can’t do it, stand aside.” Gu Feifei grabbed his neck and lifted him like a chicken, then put him aside.
This move shocked everyone. They were all speechless. A group of girls who were watching opened their mouths till they were as round and as big as duck eggs. Then, one by one, they spontaneously stood behind Gu Feifei, waiting to see this female T-Rex perform.
Xiaoyu realized that he could not afford to offend this woman in front of him. Hence, he could only go along and immediately changed his tone. “Since an expert is willing to help us out, that’s great. We lost so terribly earlier, I’m embarrassed to continue playing. If we lose again we’ll have to kill ourselves in shame. Since this sister wants to help, we will accept it regardless of whether we win or lose. But I have to say something first. They were very insulting just now. We have to familiarize ourselves with each other first. Let’s play a practice match, okay?”
He was very tactful. After all, they were unfamiliar with the newcomer and it was reasonable to play a test match to get a feel of her abilities.
“How does this work?” Gu Feifei did not listen to him at all. She pointed to the mouse and asked Hong Dali, “You use this with the right hand,” then, pointed to the keyboard, “and you just have to press this with the left hand, right?”
She was not to blame. After all, this was the first time she had seen a mouse and keyboard—these things were too low-level and not up to her standard…
“Yes, that’s right. You can familiarize yourself with the controls first when you go in later.” Hong Dali explained with a grin.
Everyone’s jaws dropped. The one who got kicked aside earlier cried. “Can you do it? Don’t tell me you have not even used a computer before! This is an arranged match! An arranged match! It will be very embarrassing if we lose, I’m telling you!”
Everyone else looked at Gu Feifei in fearful awe, as if they had seen a ghost.
There were still people who had never used a computer before in this day and age? Suddenly, everyone was talking. “Hey, hey, hey. Can this girl do it? Don’t tell me she has never used a computer before?””I think it’s unlikely. She doesn’t even know what a mouse and keyboard are. She’s bound to be pawned later.””Yeah, but she doesn’t look like she has come out from some mountain valley, could she have transmigrated here?””Are you joking? There’s no such thing as transmigration…”
Yes, actually, the words said most casually were the ones which hit closest to the truth.
“This…” Looking at Gu Feifei, who was familiarizing herself with the keyboard and mouse, Xiaoyu sweated profusely. He looked at Hong Dali and swallowed audibly. “Are you sure it will work?”
“You have to.” Hong Dali shrugged helplessly. “You have two choices now. One is to play with her, the other is to get beaten up by her.” After that, he laughingly stated his own stand. “If I were you, I’d choose the first one.”
Playing with her or getting beaten up was a question that needed no consideration at all.
So Xiaoyu started to explain the basic operations to Gu Feifei. “Control the target with the mouse, skill hotkeys are on the keyboard. Your character will use a skill based on the hotkey you press…”
His lesson went on for more than ten minutes. Originally, this was a very serious situation. However, when Hong Dali and Gu Feifei came, it suddenly became extremely strange. A novice female threatened four males to play with her. The fifth male was visibly agitated but stood to the side, afraid to speak up…
The number of spectators slowly increased. Soon, the entire second floor was full of people who had come to see what was happening…
“Such a basic mode of operation.” Gu Feifei curled her lip and got a feel for the mouse pointer again, then snorted. “Okay, seems easy enough. Let’s start.”
Xiaoyu was sweating profusely. He did not feel confident at all. However, the T-Rex-like female had spoken and he had to accede to her request. They teamed up and began playing.
