Playing Fish Trapped in Secret Room
Book 1: The Storm is Coming
Chapter 11
The reason why all these big clubs had gathered in Korea was for the “Exhibition Tournament” of two new games: <Heroes of the Storm> and <Secret Room Storm>.
The former was a type of DotA game from Blizzard. The latter was a gun shooting game from an unknown developer, but it received universal praise from all the professional players after the Alpha test.
One game was from a top game company but the other was a popular game from just word of mouth.
Thirty seven clubs worldwide were invited to this exhibition tournament. Five clubs from China were invited including SP and K&K.
“I’m watching the news.” Her sister chatted with Ai Qing over the phone. “Is your Solo the invited guest referee?”
Ai Qing was lying on the bed. She was reading Weibo messages and eating an apple at the same time. She was also silently watching the video of the grievance round. “Not my Solo. It is SP’s Solo. He was a professional player for WarCraft and StarCraft in the past. Even Blizzard had him in an official poster. It is not a surprise to invite him as the referee.”
“Uhm…...My ex also said the same thing.”
…..
“What is going on between you and Grunt? You decided not to be together with him any more. Why are you still tangled up with his life?” Ai Qing could not understand.
“Then what is going on between you and Solo? You decided not to be together with him any more. Why did you sign on with his club?”
“I did it for esports.”
“I am for completing him and Solo.”
Ai Qing almost bit the tip of her tongue. “Grunt and Solo?”
“I felt his ‘true love’ is actually Solo. He has been following Solo’s path ever since he joined this profession. When he was able to compete with Solo side by side, he had more losses to Solo than wins. Finally when he had the opportunity to catch up in the world rankings….Your Solo already retired. He was so depressed that it was even worse than being dumped by his girlfriend.”
What she said was true.
The computer screen was displaying a triple kill by Dt. Ai Qing could not help saying, “He was too stubborn about the aura of Solo’s myth. Actually both Dt and 97 are pretty strong. He could choose these players around him if he wants to compete with somebody.”
“Uhm…...97 explained this problem before…...How did he say it? Oh, yeah, Grunt only has Solo in his eyes, and Dt only has Apple Dog in his eyes.”
“Me?” Ai Qing felt funny and turned off the video. “I was defeated by Dt. There is no reason for him to keep me in his mind.”
