PFC Chapter 12 Liao Hua and Zhao Kuo in Esports
Chapter 12 Liao Hua and Zhao Kuo in Esports
The base bus drove smoothly onto the road to the airport.
The carriage was dimly lit, and the team members rested on their seats, some with their eyes closed, others with their heads down playing on their phones.
Chen Wang had just stuffed his suitcase into the overhead compartment and sat down when he casually opened Weibo. The hashtag for WE's official MSI roster had already gone viral, and the comment section was completely flooded with doubts, pessimism, and complaints.
What's going on? It's one thing to replace Condi after his incident, but how come this ingrate is even on the roster?!
[This is absolutely ridiculous! MSI is such an important tournament, and they put someone who's never played in the LPL in? Have the management lost their minds?]
[Upstairs, two of them have never played in the LPL, and Chen Gou has never played either.]
[I'd rather wait for Condi to finish dealing with his issues and return than let someone of dubious background take up a spot; they're just dragging the team down.]
Some people are still thinking about Condi's return.
[This Ning? He seems to be a jungler from YM. He's aggressive, but he's never played in a major tournament. Is he really reliable as a last-minute replacement?]
[WE wasn't even guaranteed to beat SKT to begin with, and now after seeing the roster, their morale is completely shattered. They're just waiting to get crushed by the Brazilians in the group stage.]
[It seems better to pass the ball to RNG; at least they still have a chance.]
These two are unbeatable – one is like Liao Hua in esports, the other like Zhao Kuo in esports!
As the glaring comments flashed across his face, Chen Wang wasn't annoyed at all. Instead, he curled the corners of his mouth and casually handed his phone to Ning next to him.
"Look at us, we've become the biggest sinners on the entire internet now."
Ning took the phone and glanced at it, her face immediately turning rosy.
"Dude, we haven't even started fighting yet, why are you yelling like that?"
"I'm a secondary league FMVP, after all. I'm thinking LPL can't sign anyone right now. Who else can they sign if not me?"
"Are these people fucking sick? I'm speechless. Are they just spouting nonsense for the sake of spouting nonsense?"
"They're all trolls, do you like it? Welcome to the LPL." Chen Wang grinned.
You even said you didn't care if others criticized you.
Do you think the public opinion environment in LSPL will be the same as in LPL?
If you say a couple of things, you won't be able to handle it.
"What does 'e-sports Liao Hua' and 'e-sports Zhao Kuo' mean? They must be praising us, right?" Ning scrolled through Weibo for a long time and finally found only one sentence that sounded reasonable.
"Is this saying I resemble a character from the Three Kingdoms period?"
Well, I'm just an everyday illiterate.
The episode that best fits the character's persona; Chen Wang laughed like crazy.
"Shu Han has no great generals, so Liao Hua is made the vanguard," meaning you're just a piece of trash who was brought in to fill a quota. If there were other options, who would have chosen you?
"Oh my god, I really want to curse these people's mothers." Ning really couldn't stand it anymore, and took out her phone to interact with these people under the official Weibo account.
Xi Ye leaned over and peeked at the scene, then sighed helplessly, "No wonder the fans are excited. After all, it's MSI. Suddenly changing the jungler and adding a substitute top laner, anyone would panic."
957 sat quietly by the window, not uttering a sound from beginning to end. His eyes were indifferent, and he seemed to be lost in thought, seemingly unconcerned about the controversy online.
Just as the group was chatting, a Korean accent with a hint of sarcasm suddenly broke in.
Mystic crossed his arms, glanced at Chen Wang sideways, and said in an undisguisedly cold tone, "If it weren't for certain people... Hu Luanjubao, we wouldn't be like this."
"But this MSI is still the same old story, no Edison Chen!"
Although his Chinese was terrible, anyone could hear the hostility in his words.
Everyone knows that Mystic and Condi are very close friends. They often meet up for meals and go to bars together. Their relationship is extremely strong.
Condi's suspension due to the match-fixing scandal caused him to miss MSI, which led to changes in the originally planned tactics and lineup. As a result, Chen Wang squeezed into the roster halfway through and even took the spot of substitute top laner.
Mystic looked down on him from the bottom of his heart, thinking he was just a slacker who took advantage of a weakness.
It's not like we haven't played practice matches together before.
The top laner played like Shi, making absolutely no noise. With that kind of performance, it would be difficult for him to even get into the second team. Why should he be on the main roster?
He originally had a substitute support who could switch the bottom lane playstyle, but with Chen Wang's arrival, he really has nothing left.
The carriage fell silent for a moment.
Xi Ye's expression changed slightly, and he was about to speak up to smooth things over when Chen Wang raised his eyes, meeting Mystic's gaze calmly. His tone was neither soft nor hard, showing no sign of yielding: "You mean, to ensure you can qualify for MSI, match-fixing is acceptable?"
What a big hat!
Xi Ye felt as if Mystic, who was sitting next to him, had suddenly put on a hat and stood in line.
Fortunately, Chen Wang spoke Chinese, which his brother-in-law couldn't understand, thus preventing a potential conflict.
That's what I was thinking.
next second.
"Neimalunze, Nuohega MSI eijinchuhanengerbozanghaliaogouhaidusangguan ohpudanenggao ya? Xiba!"
"Holy crap, there's even a Korean translator!" Xi Ye was shocked and immediately started looking around, wanting to see who was so bold as to help with the translation.
It wasn't just a translation; they also added a "shiba" (a vulgar expression).
There were only two translators in the team, and neither of them had spoken yet. They were also looking at him with the same confusion. Suddenly, Xi Ye realized what was going on.
"Chen Wang, you can speak Korean? You're really amazing."
Chen Wang, of course, did not understand Korean.
But there's translation software. He typed in this content, translated it, and even found Chinese phonetic annotations—all for the purpose of swearing.
Looking at the faintly visible "Korean Proficiency (White)" in front of him, Chen Wang chose to lie through his teeth: "Of course I can, I'm a level 4 Korean speaker."
"That's amazing? Teach me how to scold him later." Ning suddenly became interested as well.
This big, simple-minded guy is so easy to fool; he believed it right away.
Looking at the progress bar in front of him, Chen Wang was also a little amused.
There's even some exploitation involved here, how disgusting!
He fooled a few more people, and he actually mastered Korean.
Mystic, who had just been insulted in Korean, was not in a good mood.
Although my pronunciation is poor, I can still understand it to some extent!
Especially swear words.
Even if a foreigner's Chinese isn't perfect, a simple "idiot" insult is still understandable to most Chinese people.
Mystic's face darkened, and he immediately switched to Korean to hurl insults.
Chen Wang didn't tolerate him and directly uttered the term "bastard".
During the verbal battle, Chen Wang suddenly gained Korean proficiency (white), and his mind became lighter. He could understand everything Mystic said, and he could curse Mystic with even more energy.
"Damn it, you're a slut who goes clubbing with Condi and Cao Fen. What right do you have to ride in the same car as me? I don't even want to fight with you. Get lost, you bastard."
Upon hearing this, Mystic and the two translators were stunned.
No, you really know how?
If Chen Wang's Korean was still considered clumsy before, it now sounded quite authentic to the three of them.
At least it's not fake Korean.
How can swearing improve your Korean language skills?
The two translators were immediately confused.
You think you can learn Korean by swearing? What about all the syllables we painstakingly memorized and the listening comprehension we practiced?
What exactly is it?!
