When Xiao Luo said that his faction was the Black Rose, Zhu Xiaofei immediately flew over and held Xiao Luo’s hand tightly. He put on a pitiful and delicate act,”Ohhh, Brother Luo, this must be fate. Yes, we are also from the Black Rose faction. Come and join the game chat, you’re the only one left. You’re not allowed to refuse. This is destined, and destiny has the greater power! ”
Xiao Luo felt awkward, he frowned, “But I still need to organize my things…..”
“It took a lot of effort for the campus belle to agree to take us on to make us look more formidable, and to let us ride on her coattails to the sky. If you don’t help, I’ll be slitting own my neck and committing suicide every few minutes.” Zhu Xiaofei interrupted, he also made a gesture of slas.h.i.+ng his neck with his palm.
Xiao Luo had second thoughts. If he wanted to be an invisible bodyguard, the most important thing was to become friends with Chu Yue first. This was an opportunity.
He thought about this and nodded in agreement, “Well then, I’ll play a few rounds with you.”
“Haha…. Thank you very much, Brother Luo, thank you!” Zhu Xiaofei was so overcome with emotion that he almost kissed Xiao Luo a few times.
Dingkai responded to Chu Yue directly by typing in the group, “Chu MM, we can start the queue ranking. The newly arrived Brother Luo in our cla.s.s happens to be of the Platinum tier from the Black Rose faction, so we’ve gathered five people now.”
Not long after this message was sent out, the group chat of the English Language cla.s.s exploded.
“What? The handsome Xiao Luo also plays League of Legends?”
“Hoho, everyone, go to Princess Chu’s livestream, the handsome Xiao Xiao Luo will be playing League of Legends!”
“Really looking forward to it…..”
A series of messages sprung up in rapid succession, including various memes, the group chat had never been so lively before.
In the female dormitory …
Looking at the enthusiasm by their cla.s.smates in the group chat, Bai Ling said half-jokingly, “Young Mistress Chu, Xiao Luo is very popular in our cla.s.s. See, as soon as everyone heard that he’ll be playing the game, they opened up your livestream in preparation to see him.”
Chu Yue sat on a desk chair, her fine black hair was casually spread and her cheeks were rosy, she looked dazzling. Her delicate brows knitted in a frown and feeling dissatisfied, she said, “He is just a fellow that appeals to the crowds using vulgar claptrap. I’ve had enough of these love-sick fools, it’s as if they’ve never seen a man for decades! ”
“Ahem….. pay attention to your words, you are broadcasting live.” Bai Ling reminded her by coughing a few times.
“Why are you nervous, I haven’t turned on the camera yet!” Chu Yue said with pursed lips and an indifferent att.i.tude.
After she put on headphones, her long and beautiful fingers tapped on the keyboard. She sent messages in the groupchat, shouting at Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai, “Hurry up, don’t waste my time!”
At this moment, Xiao Luo had just tidied and arranged his computer, he logged into his account.
“The great campus beauty is rus.h.i.+ng us, Brother Luo, what’s your ID, I’ll add you as a friend before adding you into our temporary team.” Zhu Xiaofei said.
“Hero Luo!” Xiao Luo replied.
“Hero Luo?”
Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai turned their heads at the same time, looking at Xiao Luo with astonishment.
“Don’t you think it’s too much of a show-off?”
Xiao Luo was a little embarra.s.sed. He also knew that this ID was too loud and aggressive, which did not fit his style. At the time of registration, he thought about it for a long time but could not come up with a good name. Zhang Dashan, who had grown impatient with all that waiting, just typed “Hero Luo” and registered for him. The ID was then used until the present.
“No, no, the name is nice. It’s loud, sounds like someone with a great reputation, hahaha …”
“Yeah, the ID doesn’t matter. I have a secondary account with the ID ‘Jade Emperor."”
Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai teased each other for a few moments, smoothing over the atmosphere of embarra.s.sment. Although, they felt that Xiao Luo’s ID was indeed a little pretenetious and arrogant.
After joining the team that had been a.s.sembled at the last minute, Xiao Luo learned that Chu Yue’s ID was “Ziyue” and Bai Lings ID was “Baiseci doll”. Zhu Xiaofei’s ID suited his image, he was called “Gaolaozhuang Laozhu”; Ding Kai’s was humorous and bold, he used the name of the national leader directly.
When the girls from of the English Laguage major knew what was Xiao Luo’s ID, the words “Hero Luo” dominated the group chat. The girls felt that the name was too cool.
“What? Hero Luo? How egotistical of him, I don’t even know if his skills are worthy of the name.” Chu Yue snort disdainfully.
Bai Ling smiled sweetly and teased, “He might really be an expert.”
Chu Yue disagreed and typed four words in the public chat room of the five-man team, “don’t drag us down!”
Xiao Luo knew that she was warning him so he did not reply. He opened the system mall and used two hundred points to redeem the gaming ability. Since he wanted to get to know Chu Yue quickly, his gaming skills must pa.s.s muster.
He had not been playing games for a long time. Although he was of the Platinum tier, he would only be able show a standard of gameplay more suited to the Silver tier if he did not redeem the gaming ability.
“Brother Luo, where do you want to fight?” Zhu Xiaofei turned his head and asked.
Dingkai added, “Chu MM and Bai Ling are a foreover-combo of the bottom lane, so we are left with only the top, middle and jungle.”
“You guys choose first.” Xiao Luo smiled.
“My fighting abilities are terrible, it would be better for me to go to the jungle,” Ding Kai said. He then chose Xin Zhao to be the jungler.
“Then I’ll choose the baldie and take the middle lane!”
Zhu Xiaofei chose Rune Mage Ryze.
Xiao Luo was on top lane. Tryndamere the Barbarian King was his favorite champion, For safety’s sake, he immediately chose it without any hesitation. He was battling against Gnar the Missing Link.
As soon as Xiao Luo finished selecting his champion, Chu Yue sent a message asking, “A melee champion versus a long-range champion, are you sure you can fight this battle?”
“I’ll do my best.” Xiao Luo said in a neither servile nor overbearing tone.
Chu Yue did not say more. She chose Twitch the Plague Rat as her ADC while Bai Ling was the auxiliary as Janna the Storm’s Fury.
After a short waiting period, the game officially started.
“Brother Luo, you chose the wrong summoner spells.” Ding Kai was surprised.
Zhu Xiaofei took a look, it was true. The closer the enemy was, the greater the damage Tryndamere could inflict. Ghost was the most suitable, but the summoner spell that Xiao Luo brought was Flash.
Xiao Luo smiled and shook his head, “It’ll be all right!”
“Brother Luo, in any case, no matter what happens, we’ll just develop wretchedly. We’ll wait for our campus belle to carry us through.” Zhu Xiaofei was very worried, he was really afraid that Xiao Luo would give the top lane to the big boss.
Xiao Luo nodded, “Relax, it’s okay.”
At this time, the Wuju Bladesman, jungler for the opposing team sent a message. He said with sympathy, “You’ve exploded, Tryndamere!”
“?????”
Dingkai sent a few question marks in return.
The Wuju Bladesman immediately replied, “We have a Master at the top lane, he can beat everything into a pulp.”
“Tryndamere, I’ll burn joss paper for you, have a nice walk.” Katarina also sent a taunting message from the opposing team’s middle lane.
Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai could not bear it, they immediately replied, “You think you’re so great because you have a Master? Our Rat at the bottom lane is a Challenger. Tremble, you sc.u.m.”
“Go on and brag, aren’t you afraid of choking on your bullsh*t.” Wuju Bladesman of the opposing team said.
“I think he’s the King of Bullsh*t, haha..…” Middle lane Katarina ridiculed.
Zhu Xiaofei was a little angry and he replied, “Childish losers, just wait for you punishment!”
As soon as the word “childish losers” came out, the opposing team immediately became hostile. All sorts of malicious and dirty curses were thrown wildly about. Some curses involved their mothers, some their ancestors; anyway, the chatbox on the lower left corner of the screen were filled with filthy language unfit for one’s eyes.
“How did Zhu Xiaofei get into a cussing match with the opposing team?”
Chu Yue banned everyone’s messages; out of sight, out of mind.
Bai Ling was equally disgusted and activated her ban on the messages.
Xiao Luo frowned, in the end, he really could not stand the opposing team using the male and female reproductive organs as words of abuse, so he replied, “Do you have to go so far? It’s just a game.”
It was only a simple sentence to stop the ongoing war, but the Wuju Bladesman of the opposing team immediately turned to Xiao Luo as his bombing target.
