Chapter 344: Chapter 344: Brother Shen, You’re Really Awesome (2,000-Word Chapter)
In the evening, Ye Xian was added to a WeChat group called ’YFD Champion Team’, which had four members. As soon as she joined, she was greeted warmly.
[Chen Du]: Come out and welcome the new person.
[Da Bai Yang]: Hello Ye Xian, my name is Yang Baimu, you can call me Da Bai, I’m one year older than you, 19 this year. Oh, and my mom is a huge fan of yours. When we meet, you’ve got to give me an autographed photo, okay~
[Wen Lan]: Hello, I’m Wen Lan, the Middle Single King of the YFD team.
[Li Mingshuo]: I’m Li Mingshuo, just call me Xiao Shuo, I main the assassins Li Bai, Dongfang Yao, and Electric Light Rat (Baili Xuance, younger brother of Baili Shouyue).
[Xianxian]: Hi everyone, I’m Ye Xian.
As soon as Ye Xian greeted them, the four of them replied in unison: We know your profile well, no need for introductions.
[Chen Du]: It’s about time, Ye Xian, are you free now? Shall we play a few rounds first, to get familiar with each other?
[Xianxian]: Sure.
Just as Chen Du was about to exit WeChat, he saw a message from the operations team that was directly linked to BHS.
What?
When he saw the content of the message, he doubted his own eyes and was stunned for a few seconds before sending a message to Li Mingshuo.
[Li Mingshuo]: I’m OK, but you all be careful! The CEO... might be here to check on the results of our training this period.
Ye Xian logged onto her account, and not long after, Chen Du pulled her into the team for a ranked match from the friends list. In the five-man lineup, the first was Chen Du, the second Da Bai, the third Wen Lan, the fourth her, and the fifth...
Ye Xian: "Where’s Li Mingshuo? Why hasn’t he arrived?"
Chen Du: "In a minute."
After saying that, an avatar with swirling black mist and a white ’S’ appeared in the team, with the ID just a single word—’Shen’.
Ye Xian raised an eyebrow, everyone’s ID was plainly their own names, why did Li Mingshuo go by... ’Shen’? A nickname?
Chen Du: "Li Mingshuo just told me something came up, and he can’t make it. This person is our club’s substitute player."
Oh~ so it’s a substitute player. No wonder.
"Hello, nice to meet you, I’m Ye Xian~" Ye Xian greeted him in a friendly manner but noticed he hadn’t turned on his mic, "Why isn’t he turning on his mic to communicate?"
Everyone had their microphones on except him; he only had a receiver, meaning they could hear him speak, but they couldn’t hear him talk.
Yang Baimu: "He’s... outside right now, it’s not convenient."
"Oh~"
The substitutes in the YFD team sure had it tough, having to be ready for action even when outside.
Chen Du started the game, and the five of them entered the hero selection screen. Chen Du was top lane and picked his best hero, Lv Bu; Da Bai was support and asked Ye Xian what she needed before picking.
Ye Xian glanced at her own hero pool, "I’ll play Gongsun Li, you can just pick Yao to ride on me."
"Yao?" Yang Baimu, "No, are you that confident you can carry alone? I don’t want to play Yao, too girly, that’s the kind of cutesy hero girls like to play!"
Ye Xian: "But Gongsun Li is so agile, only Yao can match me and keep up with my pace." freēwēbnovel.com
"Alright then." Yang Baimu reluctantly chose Yao, but suddenly, the fifth-floor player typed a few words: Swap for Da Qiao
Yang Baimu instantly swapped for Da Qiao and confirmed his choice.
Ye Xian: "???" Wait a minute, what’s with this little brother on the fifth floor? So authoritative, huh? Just tells someone to swap and they do it, and why is Brother Da Bai, a member of the Champion Team, listening to a substitute like that?
Chen Du: "Da Qiao is indeed the best choice for protecting Gongsun Li."
Da Bai: "Right! She has silence and knock-up skills."
Wen Lan: "She can engage or disengage, her second skill can escort allies back to base, and her Big Move can summon everyone back immediately. She’s great for team fights."
Ye Xian: "...Well, alright." It seems like this bro on the fifth floor has some strategy, indeed. She had indeed only been thinking about her own performance, not paying that much attention to her teammates.
Wen Lan picked Zhuge Liang, and Ye Xian chose Gongsun Li.
The fifth floor picked Han Xin.
Han Xin?
Han Xin is a hero with the most displacement abilities, fastest support capabilities, and a very strong sense of rhythm in Honor of Kings. He’s extremely popular, and usually, only veteran players are good at playing him. New players tend to choose newer heroes like Dongfang Yao, Electric Light Rat, or Ground Chicken (Yun Zhongjun).
As they entered the preparation screen, Ye Xian realized, "..." this little brother on the fifth floor, he’s using Han Xin’s default skin (no skin at all). As a substitute on a Champion Team, his conditions seem quite modest, huh?
Indeed, those who are readily available are often young people struggling to make a living. It’s not easy. Now that everyone is part of the same team and we’re fated to be together...
Ye Xian: "Han Xin, which skin do you like? I’ll send you one after we get out."
Chen Du, Da Bai, Wen Lan: "..." Is this employee starting to feel sympathy for the boss?
The game began, and Han Xin didn’t reply to her. Ye Xian pouted, could it be he was shy? Or was her straightforward question hurting his fragile ego? Nevermind, she’d just randomly gift a White Dragon Roar later.
A few minutes into the game, Ye Xian was earnestly farming on the bottom lane with Da Bai when suddenly she heard a ’request to gather’
On the mini-map, it was Han Xin who sent the message; Han Xin was standing in front of the red BUFF, half completed, calling her over.
Was he offering her the red BUFF?!
In Honor of Kings, BUFFs are affectionately referred to as ’daddy’ because they grant powerful buffs, especially the red BUFF, which not only provides an extra slowing effect but can also significantly enhance the success rate of a gank. However, BUFFs are located in the jungle, crucial for the assassin’s development, so other heroes generally don’t compete for them early on. And now Han Xin is willingly giving her the red BUFF.
Ye Xian excitedly scurried over only to find that Han Xin already had a red BUFF at his feet, surely stolen from the enemy. He had secured the enemy’s red so quickly; the kid’s got skills!
Ye Xian quickly took the red BUFF, but no sooner had she claimed it, the enemy assassin, deprived of the red BUFF, and his Support came to their jungle to snatch it back. Han Xin reacted swiftly, his displacement targeting right under the assassin’s feet. The enemy released their skills on him, but he moved with the agility of a ghost, as if striking their main artery, blood spurted out rapidly.
Ye Xian was taken aback for a moment, then raised Gongsun Li’s umbrella and unleashed a flurry of moves, leaving the enemies dazed and confused. When both enemies were left on their last thread of health, Han Xin stopped his actions, allowing Ye Xian to finish them off.
The system announced Gongsun Li’s double kill, and YFD cheered her on, "You’ve got some moves, Ye Xian! Awesome! 666!"
Ye Xian was also surprised, not by taking down those two, but by the fact that just now, Han Xin, who had a clear opening from behind to take the kills, chose to let her have them!
A warm feeling welled up inside her, and Ye Xian was deeply touched, "Thank you, Brother Shen! Brother Shen, you are so amazing!"
No sooner had she spoken than Han Xin, who was attacking the bird (a low-damage jungle monster), suddenly stopped moving, stood still for a few seconds, and then... was pecked to death by the little bird.
Everyone: "???"
Ye Xian: "..."
