Chapter 28: Lu Xiaoan

Views:

Yun Yun took out the chassis from the 28-inch suitcase, and with Zhang Ye's help, he placed it heavily next to the other six computers. It looked completely different from those unified mainframes, and it didn't even have the proper logo.

"When did you get your computer?" Zhang Ye looked at the case, which was glossy black and completely unlabeled, "Assembled it yourself?"

"Two years ago."

Zhang Ye said with a look of surprise, "14 years old? Can it still be used?"

Yun Yun didn't blame him for his surprise. If he wasn't a user of this computer, he might have asked the same question as him. In e-sports, talent is the first thing to look at, and equipment is the second thing to look at. Computers, keyboards, headphones, mice and mouse pads are indispensable weapons and most important partners for professional players. The sound quality of headphones and the type of mouse pad , Factors that are insignificant when using the computer in normal times can become the key to winning or losing in the arena.

"I made it to the top 50 on the national server with this computer." Yun Yun said, "Together with Kang Ming."

Zhang Ye laughed after hearing this, and said, "Ling Dong must have caused you a lot of trouble, it seems that this old guy is still capable."

After all, in Zhang Ye's heart, Kang Ming was always a daredevil with more impulsiveness than strategy, and often led the entire team to defeat because of a moment of fighting spirit. This kind of temper, daring to love and hate, was exactly the same as his real life.

Zhang Ye helped Yun Yun debug the computer. This 14-year-old device is in good health from the hardware test. At least the general attributes required by Overwatch are perfectly compatible.

It was just a simple arrangement of computers, but Yun Yun felt a sincere sense of accomplishment. This is AM's computer room, and it is also the place where they carry out daily training and participate in online competitions. There are a total of seven computers here, and the computer desks divided into two rows occupy most of the space. Judging from the vacant space , and a few more devices can be placed.

The interior is wide and well lit, and even the ergonomic seats are carefully prepared.

"Because the team members feel that the gaming chairs are not practical, I have purchased ergonomic chairs for them. If you think it is not suitable, please tell me."

Yun Yun looked at the simple chairs and said, "Yes, no problem."

After all, when he joined the profession, he rarely sat on those professional gaming chairs. This year, he relied on a simple single stool to solve all problems. He said: "I think the conditions here are very good, but I don't know Can I meet the requirements of the team?"

Zhang Ye said: "Don't worry, Chen Lingdong has told me that the top 50 players in the national server all have the basic conditions to play professionally, so we have achieved the hardware, and the rest is cooperation and training."

"The current situation of the five members of the team is like this. The captain, Lin Minyu, is a professional player transferred from the storm, and is good at Zarya and Winston; Lu Xiaoan is in charge of the command position, and is good at Lucio, Ana, and Zenyatta. ;Peng Xiaozhou is our main T, Liu Sanping is another output position, and then there is the support position Wu Lisheng. Now our usual tactics are the core of Genji, do you know Genji?"

The core of Genji is a regular tactic that has swept the entire Overwatch circle since last season, and almost every professional team that is good at Genji can achieve good results. Since the appearance of Ana, although the tactics have changed and the focus has shifted to Ana, the Genji tactical system is still one of the most popular routines.

However, Yun Yun would not, he said sincerely: "I am only good at McCree, Hanzo, Anna, and Zarya, and other heroes can only be practiced."

"Practice..." Zhang Ye's expression couldn't contain his disappointment. After all, a core hero like Genji happened to be what the team lacked. Not only Yun Yun can't, but the other five members of the team can't either.

But the high hopes given by Kang Ming lingered in his heart, Zhang Ye immediately said: "It's okay, McCree and Hanzo also have a lot of tricks, let's discuss it later."

He looked at the clock on the wall and said, "It's 10 o'clock, those guys should get up. They were a little excited discussing tactics last night, so I didn't let them get up early today."

The friendly tone was like the father of a team player, which made Yun Yun very fond of him.

Zhang Ye was a person who spoke very comfortably. His tone of voice and his choice of words never made him feel cramped.

"Turn on the computer and play some games first." Zhang Ye stood up, "Have you had breakfast? Shall I make you some?"

"No thanks."

Zhang Ye also contracted the meals for everyone in the team.

Yun Yun looked at the client terminal on the computer desktop and considered whether to log in to the Asian server. When the mouse moved over the icon, he heard a crisp door closing sound.

He thought it was Zhang Ye, but Yun Yun saw a young man without glasses, with slightly curly hair, eyes staring at him intently, his chin raised slightly, and he looked not easy to get along with.

With a casual and clear voice, he asked, "Are you the one playing Hanzo?"

"Hello, my name is Yun Yun." Yun Yun stood up and introduced himself.

"Hmm." The man didn't intend to introduce himself, he rummaged through the drawer of the side cabinet by the door and took out a stack of printing paper.

It was full of flat color maps of Overwatch's battle maps. He came over and leaned against the computer desk, motioning with his chin, "Sit."

Then he took out the top picture and put it in front of Yun Yun, it was Hanamura.

He asked, "Can you tell the difference between the southeast and the north?"

Yun Yun replied, "It's clear."

"Well, which direction is this?" The man nodded, without looking at Yun Yun, he casually clicked on the small room behind Hanamura's target point, where there was a small blood bag marked on the picture.

Yun Yun instantly received the other person's brainwaves, this person wanted to test him.

Yun Yun treated him seriously and said, "It depends on whether we are the attacking side or the defensive side."

"Attacking side."

"Sixty degrees north by east."

"Defender?"

"Thirty degrees southwest."

The man stared at him with no emotion in his pitch-black eyes, as if he was thinking about which aspect would be more reasonable to criticize.

And Yun Yun looked straight into his eyes, tilted his head slightly and said, "Don't continue?"

He returned to that unruly look, and said sternly: "You only need to say the abbreviation of the position, not the angle."

Just like a nitpicking conductor teaching his team members to be superfluous, Yun Yun believed that if he hadn't indicated the angle just now, this person would have told him with the same expression: Be specific.

So continue. Overwatch's thirteen maps, no matter whether they are remote or popular, this person asked him to point out the direction one by one. After realizing that Yun Yun's reaction speed was quite fast, he decisively accelerated his hand speed, and even began to ask Yun Yun to follow the points he pointed out. position, and immediately report the position of the defender and the attacker.

This is the most basic report in combat, but it is completely different from what Yun Yun has been in contact with. He always reports in front, back, left, right, and clock direction, and it is the first time to use east, west, northwest as the standard. This was a very weird experience. Several times, the position pointed by his finger was a position that he could hardly judge. Yun Yun only hesitated for two seconds before he could hear the strange humming sound of the person in front of him.

Like deliberately waiting for him to make a mistake.

But except for Yun Yun's hesitation, he never made a mistake in reporting.

"That's right, I've read the book." The young boy praised, half-truthfully, and put away the last map, "What else do you want besides Hanzo and McCree?"

"Anna, Zarya."

The man stood up and put the map back into the cabinet by the door, as if he was weighing the status of these four heroes in his heart. Then, he leaned against the cabinet and asked, "If you were asked to practice Genji, Reaper, Soldier 76, and Tracer, how long would it take you?"

"All?" Yun Yun confirmed.

He nodded slowly, raised his chin proudly, and said in a long voice, "All of them."

Yun Yun thought about it seriously. Genji was his most difficult hero, but the remaining three were marksmanship and positioning heroes. It shouldn't be difficult for someone with basic skills like him. He estimated the hero's skills and teamwork. With the time to cooperate, he replied: "Three days for Reaper, one day for Soldier 76, and two days for Tracer. Genji... one month."

"One month." The boy sneered and looked at him dissatisfied, "It seems that you really don't know anything about Genji."

"No." Yun Yun said, "Genji's cut-in timing is more important than other heroes' cooperation. Now that I can play Genji, I can score up to 4,000 points in a solo queue. It's the limit. It takes a month to play professionally. .”

"Then how many points can the death soldier Tracer you trained in two or three days get?"

"You can play professionally without slowing down." Yun Yun emphasized, "As long as the resources of teammates do not make mistakes."

"But what we want is not just not to hold back."

From this sentence, Yun Yun could hear the obvious meaning of targeting. This person was testing him, making things difficult for him, and even trying to provoke him all the time. But Yun Yun, a Hanzo who was scolded by passers-by teammates, how could he fall into the trap so easily.

Yun Yun smiled and said with certainty: "Then my Hanzo, McCree, Anna, and Zarya are enough to lead the team to carry."

The man stared at him with calm eyes, showing no emotion. This is the kind of person Yun Yun is most afraid of. He is so deep in his thoughts that he can't even reveal any information in his eyes. No one knows what he is thinking. Yun Yun was thinking wildly in this quiet atmosphere, could this be AM's captain? The one Zhang Ye said was playing Zarya and Winston

The man was thinking alone, and Yun Yun looked at him, and finally asked, "Excuse me... who are you?"

The curly-haired boy just leaned there and stared at him, not intending to answer. Such a silent and awkward atmosphere was interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Zhang Ye said in a gentle voice, "Breakfast is ready, let's go together with Yunyun... Lu Xiaoan, why are you here? Hey, where is Lin Minyu?"

When Lu Xiaoan heard this, she stood up and walked away with her hands in her arms. As she walked, she told Zhang Ye, "Boss is going to buy chocolates for Peng Xiaozhou, and we won't deliver them. It's too far from here. That guy has low blood sugar in the morning. What do you do?" Give him two spoonfuls of sugar to try."

"Oh!" Zhang Ye looked at him, grabbed Lu Xiaoan suddenly and asked, "I don't know when Lin Minyu left. How long has he been gone? Can I get a taxi?"

Lu Xiaoan rolled his eyes at him without any scruples, and said: "The electric scooter that the boss rides, don't you even know that your car key is gone? Let go, let go, my clothes have just been washed, and your claws are oily!"

Zhang Ye let go, took out a paper towel from the table and wiped it, and said, "Electric car, it should be back soon. Come and eat with Yun Yun, I fried an egg pancake."

"I've eaten." Yun Yun politely refused.

"Eat some, Lao Zhang's pancakes are so delicious that you can set up a stall on the street without going bankrupt." Lu Xiaoan was about to go to the dining room as she said this, but was grabbed by Zhang Ye again.

Zhang Ye asked in a low voice, "You agree?"

Lu Xiaoan's eyes were filled with contempt, and he said, "If you disagree, will you be kicked out by Boss Chen to drink the Northwest Wind?"

"Ling Dong is not this kind of person."

"Actually, this person is not bad, he's quite fresh." Lu Xiaoan waved Zhang Ye's hand away and continued walking to the restaurant.

He picked up a pancake and bit it into his mouth, muttering in a low voice, "Besides, I haven't partnered with Hanzo before."
