Chapter Sixty-Five: Social Media Weapon (2/2)
“Eh?” Chu Ge seemed to realize something: “You wanna play too, Fishy? You should have told me that earlier. I’ll download it on your iPad.”
Xiao Yu replied with a squeak.
It was not that Chu Ge minded Xiao Yu using his account – his rank wasn’t high enough. Besides, he was not aiming to raise his rank, so it would not have mattered how it was played.
The only thing that troubled him was the fact that he was constantly reported recently. It cost him quite a bit of points, and if he lost any more points this round, his account could be banned for a while.
I’ll treat it as an offering to the hamster lord then, Chu Ge thought pathetically.
Then, the doctor was deeply insulted.
First, Xiao Yu headed to the wild area and killed two beasts and gained one buff. Next, he manipulated the character and charged straight to the enemies’ den from the mid lane. When enemies got near, he would release two crowd control skills and calmly widen the effects, immediately killing off two members from the enemy’s team. One opponent had evaded and ran out of the battle area. Xiao Yu swiftly caught up.
Triple kill.
Xiao Yu ignored Chu Ge, who drew a deep breathe from the shock. He controlled the character and released an assemble signal. After purchasing equipment to power up his mage attacks, he forced his way over and ended the game in just five minutes.
The post-game screen came up: Xiao Yu’s character, which was also Chu Ge’s account, became the MVP with a score of 10-0-8 and two triple kills.
Chu Ge had his eyes wide open – that was his first time getting MVP. At this time, he wanted to prostrate himself in worship towards Xiao Yu.
“Fishy, nonono, God Hammy.” Chu Ge flattered Xiao Yu with a peeled melon seed: “Shall we start a match together?”
Xiao Yu nodded his head reservedly.
The idle afternoon passed by as Xiao Yu led Chu Ge in those matches. The doctor’s techniques were simply too crude. Xiao Yu immediately made Chu Ge his apprentice and started doing master-apprentice missions together.
Several master-apprentice missions later, the hamster and human relationship had visibly advanced by leaps and bounds.
“Fishy, Fishy, I got killed by the opponent’s archer.”
“Squeakkk.” Wait and see, I’ll avenge you.
“God Hammy! The opponent’s assassin became legendary!”
“Squeakkkk!” Don’t panic, it’s just some crazy growth. Wait for me to get up.
Xiao Yu’s main account was almost at throne rank, so he opened a new side account and led Chu Ge around the lower ranked matches. It was annihilation the whole road, triumph in every battle, and simply invincible all the way.
Xiao Yu successfully gained one fanboy named Chu Ge.
“Speaking of which, I didn’t think you would play Toxic. Yan Jin doesn’t play any games at all.” Xiao Yu typed.
“I’m a person that follows the trends closely, unlike that country bumpkin Yan Jin.” Chu Ge spoke without restraint knowing that Yan Jin was not around.
In reality, the only reason he played this game was because his current girlfriend was a university student and this game was quite popular among female university students.
After they finished a match, Chu Ge stretched his fingers and said: “I didn’t expect Yan Jin to dote on you so much that he even opened a QQ account for you.”
“Squeak.” Why, of course.
Xiao Yu thought to himself that Chu Ge didn’t even know that Yan Jin had also opened a xBao account for him.
Chu Ge suddenly realized something as he turned around suddenly. Then it dawned on him: “I was wondering why he would suddenly install a completely useless elevator. So, it’s because of you.”
“He even installed the button on the floor. The longer you live, the more things you see.” Chu Ge ridiculed.
Xiao Yu shot an arrogant glare back and was lifted by Chu Ge: “Let’s go, Fishy. Let’s not play games. Bring me to the second level to see what new additions there are.”
Xiao Yu did not mind at all, but just as he was about to agree, he suddenly heard the sound of his iPad notification alert.
“Squeakk.” Xiao Yu began to struggle like crazy.
Chu Ge reluctantly placed Xiao Yu back onto the table and tried to negotiate: “I’ll bring you and the iPad to the second floor, okay?”
Xiao Yu took a glance at the icon that popped up and opened the memo app. He typed: “My friend is looking for me. You go ahead and start a match first, we’ll go upstairs after two matches.”
“You even have friends? Can I see who they are?” Chu Ge leaned over.
“They’re the big shots of the demon world. You could be silenced if you see it. Are you sure you want to see it?” Xiao Yu weaved his lies guiltlessly.
“In that case…” Chu Ge resentfully withdrew his curious gaze and shifted to the farthest end of the sofa: “You may carry on, I promise not to peek.”
Xiao Yu nodded his head contently and opened the conversation tab with the demon world’s big shot – Grey-white SS.
[Grey-white SS]: Impressive.
Xiao Yu was overjoyed. Yan Jin’s appearance meant that the opening ceremony had already begun.
[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: What’s impressive?
Xiao Yu purposely feigned ignorance.
Grey-white SS sent a picture. Xiao Yu opened it and it turned out to be the Autumn Release Conference’s evaluation for the chosen works.
Xiao Yu casually glanced through and saw his own work awarded in the Most Popular and Best Design categories.
One design winning two super grand awards – that was rarely seen, regardless of which competition it was. Xiao Yu suppressed his agitated emotions and continued to scroll down to look for familiar names. Sure enough, he found Lin Zhou’s work among the qualifying awards.
Hah. Xiao Yu snorted coldly in his heart.
The final placing, which was also the exhibition placing, would be a combination of the awards given and the decision of the invited guest-of-honors. Although the ranking was more or less confirmed looking at the awards given.
Xiao Yu was a little puzzled. The individual work category and the corporate work category was evaluated separately, but this picture only had the award list for the individual work… In the next second, he immediately realized something. Could it be that YL’s ranking was bad and Yan Jin was embarrassed to show him?
Hehe, you think that would stop me?
Xiao Yu opened the private chat group for the qualifying designers. Because he had forgotten about the time while he gamed earlier, he even forgot that he had this convenient QQ chat group.
Just as expected, the chat group had released the full list of award evaluations for all competitions half an hour ago.
