Chapter 8 isn't it? This author is really something!
Inside the rented room, Xu Hao was furious. He thought he could read a novel after get off work to pass the time and relieve his frustration from being a beast of burden.
He is a League of Legends player who loves the game. He started playing in Season 2, but has been stuck in Silver rank for many years.
However, he really enjoys playing League of Legends and never misses a match, but he's always watching LPL get crushed by LCK.
He even got criticized and taught a lesson by European and American critics, which made him furious, and he was constantly cursing LPL.
But that saying is true.
The deeper the hatred, the stronger the love.
Although he criticizes LPL, he hopes that LPL can improve, such as winning the S-series championship, but he can't do it in reality, so he just reads League of Legends online novels and fantasizes about it.
Even though he's only a Silver player, he still loves to spout nonsense. On the internet, he claims to be a King, but no one else has any proof.
When I opened Lu Chen's novel, "My Slight Move Is the Limit of the Base Zone," I was immediately bombarded with a pile of shit right from the start.
To be honest, anyone who started playing League of Legends during Season 2 or Season 3 wouldn't criticize Uzi.
What about the female police officer taking a shower and AFK, or Lucian jungling? Everyone makes mistakes when they're young. Uzi helped LPL win two World Championship runner-up titles during the darkest of times.
This is already the best result LPL has achieved in the World Championship in so many years. Who on earth is criticizing Uzi?
"Idiot author! The puppy has beaten every ADC in the world, but he can't beat the mouth of a hater like you!"
After leaving that sentence, Xu Hao casually left the word "history" in the book review section and then ran away. After all, he already knew it was history, and he couldn't just leave it on his bookshelf.
...
On the other side, after Lu Chen finished another game on the Korean server, watching his victory points rise rapidly, his face was filled with joy.
"My left and right hands are really useful."
Recalling the three Korean server laning matches he had just played, in two of them he encountered opponents he was weak against. He immediately stood on the left side of the mid lane, his killing intent was very strong, and he marked the weak opponent and crushed them in no time.
In one game, when I encountered a team I couldn't beat, I simply stood on the right side of the middle lane and safely farmed minions.
Strangely enough, as he kept playing, he won the game. Who could he complain to?
After a few games in Summoner's Rift, his ranking on the Korean server instantly reached within the top 100, and the ID Kingslayer became well-known to many people.
However, when Lu Chen opened his writer's assistant during his break, he felt as if the sky had fallen, with countless red dots everywhere.
Clicking in to take a look, all that came into view was a reader cursing him, but the content of his curses made Lu Chen unable to help but laugh.
"Did this prick GSL's fragile little heart?"
Especially when I saw that classic line—"My dog has defeated all the ADCs, but he can't defeat the mouths of you haters."
Lu Chen simply couldn't hold back any longer.
They were all defeated, but they still couldn't win.
To be fair, is Uzi really that bad?
That's not necessarily true. It's just that, starting from some point, the number of people praising Uzi has gradually increased, which proves the saying that fans' actions are paid for by the players.
Moreover, there are some things about Uzi that he can't wash away, so his reputation isn't that good. In his previous life, Lu Chen was a struggling author, but he still played League of Legends and watched the matches.
He was actually there when Lucian jungled, just like Guan Zeyuan's debut, he was so disgusted that he felt nauseous, plus the fact that he couldn't play Jhin in S6 and Xayah in S7.
These two points weren't really major flaws, and they'll fade away with time.
However, some of Uzi's fans are making up historical records, such as in S6, which is the World Championship this year where Lu Chen played. Uzi played a game of Jhin and was then tower-dived and solo-killed by Bang's Ezreal.
Saying he can't play Jhin might be a bit of a smear campaign, but in the previous life, after S6, perhaps it was Uzi who mastered Jhin.
Then his fans started to settle scores with those viewers who criticized Uzi for not knowing how to play Jhin—whoever said my little dog can't play Jhin, come out and kneel down to apologize to the little dog!
Okay, that should be the end of it.
But in S7, during the Ardent Censer meta, Xayah and Rakan were invincible in the bot lane. Kkoma even let Xayah and Rakan through in the match against SKT, but RNG just wouldn't pick them.
Throughout S7, Uzi didn't play Xayah once, so it's reasonable for people to say he can't play Xayah, since she was the strongest AD carry in the meta, aside from Kalista.
But what no one expected was that during S8, Uzi might have mastered Xayah again, delivering several highlight plays, just like before when people said he couldn't play Jhin.
Those who said he couldn't play Xayah were purged again.
Lu Chen was among them.
Given all these events, it's no wonder he developed a liking for Uzi!
However, Lu Chen did not reply to the reader who criticized him. As an author, the first principle is to never argue with readers.
Winning in a match affects the perception of other readers, while losing makes you look like a clown—either way, you don't please anyone.
If all else fails, delete or ban them.
If an author has poor mental resilience, then he is destined to achieve nothing. Even many platinum-level authors are criticized every day.
"Ugh, why is only one person criticizing me? Bring on the criticism!"
Lu Chen sighed. The data for his book was extremely poor. He desperately wanted tens of thousands of people to criticize him.
As the saying goes, black and red are still red.
Some authors who write about being cuckolded are criticized in this way, which is why they are considered masterpieces.
It's hard to give a proper evaluation.
Just then, the requirements for the panel data refreshed again in front of his retina—[Novel data reaches 300 follow-up readings, talent entry can be extracted—draw your sword!]
"?"
In an instant, Lu Chen's eyes widened.
I was so scared I cried!
You should know that he initially used his financial power to reach 100 reads, and as a result, he was warned by the editor Xiaoyu. Now he is even demanding 300 reads.
He doesn't even have 300 in his collection!
Lu Chen pondered for a few seconds, then turned to ask his editor, Xiao Yu, whether he could continue to pay to read more chapters.
The editor responded with a smiling emoji, immediately dispelling Lu Chen's idea.
"It's tough. Oh well, what's done is done. Let's just focus on getting points."
His novel is currently still in the data entry stage, and the gaming channel is relatively quiet. He will receive the first wave of recommendations once the book reaches 6 words.
By then, Lu Chen felt that reaching 300 reads shouldn't be difficult.
...
At this moment, inside the EDG club, Meiko looked at the food he had brought back from the cafeteria, but couldn't bring himself to open his mouth.
If you ask Meiko if there's anything in the world worse than the food in EDG's cafeteria, he'd definitely say no. He opened the Korean server's Challenger rankings, saw the ID Kingslayer, and his eyes widened in shock.
"Holy crap, Kai, that mid laner I told you about is already in the 80s in the Korean server! He's climbing the ranks so fast!"
"That Kingslayer?" Ming Kai slumped in his chair, not even looking up, as he watched the online comments that were relentlessly attacking him.
I'm so tired of it all.
Little Peanut isn't human!
During interviews, he kept calling me his idol, but in official matches, he was a complete idiot. He turned the world's number one jungler into the world's number one side laner.
A hint of fear appeared in Mingkai's eyes. He was killed by Olaf while playing Lee Sin, and kicked to death by Lee Sin while playing Olaf. He even earned the nickname "4396".
You should know that he played Lee Sin more than 10 times this year and only lost 4396 games.
Thinking about this, Mingkai felt he needed to rest for a while and would let Ai Luoli play in the Spring Split next year.
He needs time to calm down.
"Yes, yes, that's him. He used to be in RNG's youth training program. I watched him completely dominate Zz1tai that day," Meiko exclaimed.
"Beating Zita isn't anything special." Death Sister suddenly appeared, glanced at Lu Chen's score, and quietly said, "The Wandering Master, if Wandering is banned, he'll retire on the spot."
"I think he's pretty strong. Maybe he has other hidden heroes up his sleeve?" Meiko scratched his head.
Abu didn't say anything, but just looked at Scout and Pawn and Deft beside him. According to Abu's plan, he wanted to recruit another mid laner to EDG to rotate with Scout.
Or it could put some pressure on Scout.
After all, Scout's performance this year has been mediocre, and if there were a good mid laner, they could be recruited to the second team IM, or to play in the secondary league, as a reserve force.
In this era, EDG has the most complete youth training system. They will definitely take any good talents, especially for a position like mid laner.
Up until now, and even in S15 before Lu Chen's rebirth, the mid laner has always been the most valuable player on the team; good mid laners are extremely rare.
Let alone EDG, other teams won't give up on a good mid laner either. In fact, ever since Lu Chen defeated Zz1tai, some clubs have been paying attention to him.
Or rather, every LPL club frequently monitors the dynamics of high-elo players on the Chinese Ionia server and the Korean server.
"Let's see," Abu thought to himself.
He shares the same idea as coach Zhu Kai of Sanke, clubs like LGD, and others, all wondering how far Lu Chen can go.
If possible, I would extend an olive branch to Lu Chen without hesitation.
...
"This is ridiculous. They beat Zita and they're bragging about it."
At the same time, having just finished criticizing Lu Chen's novel, Xu Hao opened the Anti-Pressure and Blame Forum and saw people discussing Lu Chen's defeat of Zita.
He didn't know who Lu Chen was originally, but when he saw the screenshot posted by someone, which was Lu Chen's Weibo post criticizing RNG for wanting to leave, Xu Hao, a die-hard RNG fan, was immediately enraged and left such a comment in the post.
"LPL is really ruined. People are criticizing Uzi everywhere. These people really want to destroy Chinese esports."
Xu Hao snorted coldly, took out his takeout, and opened a live streaming room on Douyu. The live streaming market is currently booming, especially the League of Legends section.
"Please all stand up!"
"The baboons are so noisy, it's disgusting. They were disgusting to Xiaogou back then, and even when Xiaogou reached the top of the national server, they didn't come out to help him even once. I report them every day!"
After closing the baboon's live stream, he opened the Black and White Riven's live stream, ready to watch and eat at the same time. But the next second, Black and White Riven's voice suddenly rang out.
"That's right, Riven does have this mechanic, which is that WR or RW can cancel the aftercast animation of the second skill..."
"?"
In that instant, Xu Hao's chopsticks stopped at his lips, and he stared wide-eyed at his computer screen.
Seeing that the black and white Riven was using Riven's combo, exactly the same as the explanation in the novel he had just read, he exclaimed in surprise.
"Wait, this little black dog actually has something going for it?"
...
