Liu Zilang was startled when he heard Chen Zhifei say the name.
Sloth's English translation was arrogance. It was the ID of Gao Yunyang, the "Point Breaker" in Se7en.
Liu Zilang shrugged after being stunned for a while. He turned around and said to himself, "Sigh … I can't help it. You guys won't believe me even if I tell you. It's always lonely being a pro."
The few people behind him looked at each other for a while. They wished they could chase after him and beat him up.
.....
Compared to Shen Zeyan and Gao Yunyang, the "Black Masked Captain" Victor, who had never shown his face and whose real name was unknown, was recognized as a true genius in the professional FPS scene.
If there was someone in the FPS game who "lived for the gun", it would be him.
Unlike certain MOBA-type eSports events which were dominated by Korean players, FPS shooting games had always been the domain of European and American players. Basically, every year, the champions of various international competitions would be monopolized by Sweden's SKK and Denmark's MTV.
It seemed that Asia had a natural shortcoming in the FPS shooting games.
In such an environment, a few professional FPS players in the country would be happy for half a year if they were to win an award in an Asian competition.
However, Victor's debut changed the situation.
He was the top genius of that era that was comparable to the top European and American players such as f0rest and Neo.
From the moment he joined Se7en, the rise of Hua Xia's FPS esports was destined. His dazzling ID, "Victor", was also known by FPS players all over the world.
First, it was the domestic leagues, big and small, followed by the Asian Cup, and then the various international competitions.
CPL Esports Professional League.
ESWC Esports World Cup.
PGL Professional League.
WCG Esports World Championship.
...
That person was just like his ID. Victor, the victor. He led his team to become an undefeatable master, causing a sensation in the esports scene all over the world.
In the second year, he became the captain of Se7en.
At that time, there was even a famous international esports manufacturer that released a global limited edition Vic's esports peripheral for him.
Due to the fact that he always wore a black mask during competitions, he became known as the "Black Masked Captain" in the eyes of the Chinese audience and "CaptainDark" in the eyes of the European and American players. It could be said that he was the top god-tier player in the FPS field.
That was until the "StarsWar" half a year ago, when Se7en lost to SKK in a deathmatch.
After returning to China, the team collapsed overnight, causing countless viewers in China to feel sorry for them. Many fans even went to the Se7en headquarters in Yuqing to protest against the shady dealings.
More than half a year had passed, and the new FPS game PUBG had taken the world by storm at an incredible speed. It had set off a trend of "Chicken Dinner for all", and all the FPS gurus had changed their roles.
Some were successful, some were not so successful …
However, now that Liu Zilang suddenly stood in front of them and said that he was the former "Black Masked Captain" Victor, the feeling was no less than having a buddy pat you on the shoulder and say that he was Yao Ming when you were playing basketball. Most importantly, he was shorter than you …
At this moment, anyone who paid even the slightest bit of attention to the local FPS development would have the urge to throw a punch at them. It was no wonder that Chen Zhifei and the others did not believe it at all.
This was because no matter how they looked at it, it was quite impossible.
Based on age alone, when Victor debuted, they were still in junior high. Now that Liu Zilang had entered university with them, the situation at that time must have been the same.
How could he be the "Black Masked Captain"?
Looking at Liu Zilang who was walking in front, they could not help but speculate maliciously …
"This kid's previous team definitely wasn't that famous. He was probably just playing around, so he's too embarrassed to say it."
"Mmm, and I'm guessing that he probably didn't achieve much. Otherwise, with Second Brother's personality, he would have taken it out to show off."
“.....”
Of course, if Liu Zilang knew what they were thinking, he would probably say it in his heart.
'We're different …'
'Different …'
.....
Since no one had eaten, the few of them quickly put Liu Zilang's question to the back of their minds and ran to the cafeteria like reincarnated hungry ghosts.
After each of them got their own portion of food, they gathered together and wolfed down the food.
While they were eating, Liu Zilang suddenly thought of something and smiled. "Boss, this lunch money … You have to reimburse me, right?"
"Why?" Chen Zhifei, whose mouth was full, asked in a muffled voice.
"That's no fun. You can't just deny it, right?" Liu Zilang took out Shen Zeyan's autograph.
Chen Zhifei's face instantly darkened. He swallowed the food in his mouth and said unhappily, "Can I get this autograph to give to my cousin?
What's written on it? If I didn't know better, I would think that something happened between my cousin and Master Ze. "
When the few of them heard Chen Zhifei's words, they could not help but laugh.
At this time, Ran Maotong suddenly said, "Oh right, are we going to participate in the University Esports League this time?
I heard that there's an in-school qualifier before the University Esports League is decided. "
Pu Taizhuang knew his own situation and could not help but say, "With our level, let's not go and embarrass ourselves. It's such a big competition, do you think they need our crates?"
Chen Duxiu also nodded as she ate. "That's right. As far as I know, our school's eSports Association will send out two teams this time. Each team has an expert in it, and I heard that there's also external help from outside the school."
Liu Zilang who was engrossed in eating was stunned. "What?
There's external help in the University Esports League? "
"There's no other way, that's the rule of the competition." Chen Duxiu shrugged. "However, there's a limit to the number of slots. There's only one."
"Isn't this bullying?"
Ran Maotong said angrily. "If it were up to me, I think we should go out and spend some money to hire a guru. It's best if we hire a professional player."
Liu Zilang was amused when he heard that.
Unless there was something wrong with their brains, professional players would not participate in this kind of competition.
If this was discovered by the eSports Association in the country, the fine would be considered a light one. It could even be a ban for a few years.
On the other hand, most professional players lived their youth. How many years could a player maintain their peak condition?
Unexpectedly, at this time, when Chen Zhifei heard Ran Maotong's words, he laughed. His eyes drifted toward Liu Zilang and he said, "Why would we need to spend money to hire a professional player?
Isn't it just a matter of a meal? "
After saying that, he turned his head and said sincerely to Liu Zilang, "Second brother, what do you think? Add whatever you want to eat, don't be shy. I'll pay for today's meal!"
Liu Zilang was speechless.
