Chapter 242 An Encounter with Leaves
However, this shop owner named Li Changqing was indeed quite skilled. More than a dozen passersby came up one after another, but none of them managed to defeat him.
"Brother Ye, this store manager is quite capable."
Having worked as Ye Lan's editor for so long, Xu Zhiqiang's eye for detail is now quite exceptional.
He could clearly sense that Li Changqing's operation and skills were very strong.
Ye Lan nodded noncommittally, "This person should be professional."
Xu Zhiqiang was shocked. "Ah, really? With professional skills, why not go play professional matches and make a name for yourself instead of opening a milk tea shop?!"
"You'll have to ask him that, I don't know either," Ye Lan shrugged.
Just as the two were chatting, another person stepped out from the crowd and loudly addressed Li Changqing:
"Let me challenge you."
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Ye Lan immediately turned her head and looked over. After seeing the person's face clearly, she couldn't help but laugh.
"I didn't expect to run into someone I know here."
Xu Zhiqiang looked closely and exclaimed, "Isn't that Shu Ye? What's he doing in Shanghai? I don't remember his name being listed as a guest in the official announcement!"
Yesterday, the official King of Glory account released promotional materials featuring Ye Lan and others, including five streamers, five professional players, and two guest commentators.
Xu Zhiqiang remembers very clearly that Shuye's name was definitely not among the five anchors.
It's obvious without even thinking that leaves wouldn't be featured in a New Year's greeting show.
First of all, his hero pool is too narrow. He only has Sun Ce in his hero pool, and he plays the other heroes only so-so.
In addition, he likes to slack off during his live streams, often interrupting his King of Glory ranked matches with Genshin Impact gacha animations, which has resulted in his popularity remaining lukewarm.
However, Shuye seems quite satisfied with the status quo. While all the other streamers were working hard to become guests on the New Year's greeting show, he remained unmoved.
Every day, I play King of Glory and Genshin Impact as usual, and then I end the stream once I've used up my allotted time.
This kind of lifestyle is simply too beautiful; many people can't help but envy it.
"It's normal. For large-scale events like the New Year's greeting show, even if some people don't receive an invitation from the organizers, they will still come at their own expense to join in the fun."
After all, for young people, New Year's Eve represents bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new, which is a very meaningful thing.
They wouldn't spend such a meaningful time alone, huddled in bed by themselves.
This is why the leaves came to Shanghai.
Being surrounded by other people's lively activities is better than experiencing loneliness alone in a room, even if that liveliness doesn't belong to you.
As a well-known streamer in the King of Glory community, Li Changqing recognized Shuye at first glance.
The leaf stepped up the stairs, smiling at the other person, "May I give it a try?"
Li Changqing's smile widened. "Of course."
After saying that, the two logged into their accounts and entered the game.
Li Changqing used Hua Mulan, while Shuye used his most frequently used hero, Sun Ce.
Then a closely contested match began.
Li Changqing's Mulan in light sword mode is graceful and agile, moving across the battlefield like an eel, while in heavy sword mode she is extremely steady, almost maximizing both control and damage.
Sun Ce, the leaf-like figure, needs no further introduction; his performance in both offense and defense was flawless.
Before reaching level four, Sun Ce found an opportunity, tower dived, and perfectly executed a combo of crowd control, easily taking down Li Changqing.
And relying on the high passive armor, he escaped from under the turret with a sliver of health.
After returning to base to replenish their health and mana, both sides will engage in a second round of competition.
As the battle continued, Sun Ce gradually gained the upper hand in terms of health.
Besides the fact that it has a leading economic advantage,
It also relies on Sun Ce's passive ability to provide high armor and the healing effect of enhanced basic attacks.
The two exchanged blows, like martial arts masters dueling, a truly spectacular display that thrilled the audience.
Xu Zhiqiang squatted on the ground, watching with great interest. "Brother Ye, with this much health, is Shuye a sure winner?"
Sun Ce currently has two-thirds of his health remaining, while Hua Mulan has only one-half of her health remaining.
The advantage in health is very obvious.
Xu Zhiqiang's views are similar to those of the general public; they are quite optimistic about Shuye, partly due to the influence of his celebrity status.
Ye Lan shook her head after hearing this, "The leaves do have an advantage in terms of health, but in reality, it's a one-shot deal for both sides."
"Really? Sun Ce has a passive high armor and such a big health advantage, there's no way he could be killed in one go, right?"
Xu Zhiqiang had just finished refuting Ye Lan when the two in the game launched an attack.
The leaf caught Mulan as she used her light sword to finish off a minion, and then launched its ultimate attack, sending its boat crashing towards Mulan.
Little did they know that this was a flaw deliberately revealed by Li Changqing.
The moment the leaves opened, Li Changqing activated Flash, and Hua Mulan instantly disappeared from her spot, dodging Sun Ce's ultimate move.
The second skill, [Whirling Dance of Splendor], predicts Sun Ce's landing point when he jumps off the ship, throws a dart to hit him, and slows him down.
The balance of power shifted instantly.
Use the light sword's first skill [Air Slash] to roll in, trigger the silence passive, and then immediately switch to the heavy sword.
A 213211 combo instantly killed Sun Ce, who was at half health.
The score is now 1-1, and the next kill will determine the winner.
"Holy crap, she just killed Sun Ce with his passive fully activated like that? That damage is insane."
Xu Zhiqiang found it hard to believe, after all, just a second ago, Sun Ce was in the lead.
But everything happened too fast; Xu Zhiqiang didn't even have time to react before Sun Ce was killed.
"Is the damage very high? Actually, no. The main reason why Hua Mulan was able to kill Sun Ce when he was in full passive state was that she dealt the maximum damage."
"If they had used even one less skill, they wouldn't have been able to kill Sun Ce in this round."
Ye Lan's gaming skills are far superior to Xu Zhiqiang's, so he can see more of the game between the two.
There's no clear winner in this round; if Li Changqing hadn't dodged the leaf-like skill, then it would have been Hua Mulan who fell to the ground.
"So who do you think will win this round?" Xu Zhiqiang asked again.
"At present, it seems that the leaves have a better chance of winning. The outcome should be decided when the cooldown of the next ultimate skill is over."
"why?"
"Since Mulan doesn't have Flash anymore, if nothing unexpected happens, Shuye should seize this opportunity."
Xu Zhiqiang stopped asking questions and began to watch the game attentively, stroking his chin.
Sure enough, the moment Sun Ce's ultimate skill was ready again, Shu Ye rushed forward impatiently.
Just like before, I started with my ultimate move.
This time, however, Mulan didn't have Flash. Although Li Changqing reacted, he couldn't dodge like before.
The leaves performed a very standard "Sun Ce triangle jump".
31 stuns followed by 2, a full combo hits Hua Mulan.
With maximum damage output, we successfully killed it.
With the head count at 2:1, the leaf wins.
