Chapter 63 Death Knocks on the Door!
The stage lights came on again, drawing everyone's attention to that spot.
The host, hope Ran, was already in place at the interview booth.
Today she wore a well-tailored black bodycon mini skirt that accentuated her amazing waist-to-hip ratio.
A pair of long, straight legs were wrapped in sheer black stockings, which gleamed alluringly under the light.
Her face wore a sweet yet professional smile that was captivating.
The comments in the live stream changed the moment they saw her.
【My dear wife Xiran! My wonderful wife Xiran!】
[The director knows what we want to see, move the camera down a bit more!]
[Who can handle this? I'm better now, how about you guys?]
Top Esports won the game, and we beat Xiran – a win-win situation!
【…】
Guided by the staff, Chen Xiao slowly walked onto the stage through the contestant entrance.
When he stood next to Xiran, a murmur of surprise rippled through the crowd.
hope Ran's height is already quite outstanding among girls, but Chen Xiao, who was wearing flat sneakers, was still a whole head taller than her.
With his handsome features, tall and straight figure, and that god-like performance on the field just now, he perfectly blended youthful charm with the aura of a strongman.
Holy crap! This rookie mid laner is not only strong, but also incredibly handsome!
With that height and looks, why not become a star and play professionally?
[Where did Top Esports find this gem? Their visually appealing team gains another powerful member!]
To be honest, Lucifer and Xiran actually look quite well-matched standing together...
[Hey you in front, draw your sword! hope Ran is mine!]
"Welcome our MVP for the second and third games today, Lucifer, the rookie mid laner from Top Esports!"
hope Ran's voice was sweet and clear. She smiled and handed the microphone to Chen Xiao, "Let's say hello to the audience in front of the live broadcast room and in the live broadcast room first."
Chen Xiao took the microphone, blinked slightly, and felt a little disoriented. The dark mass of people and countless flashing light boards below the stage made him feel dazed for a moment.
He took a deep breath and gave a slightly shy smile.
"Hello everyone, I'm Lucifer, the mid laner for TES."
A simple self-introduction drew a thunderous response from the audience.
"Lucifer—awesome!"
"Xiao Shen!!"
hope Ran was also infected by the enthusiastic atmosphere, and her smile widened even more: "How do you feel now, having delivered such an amazing performance on your first LPL stage? Are you nervous?"
"I was a little nervous before going on stage," Chen Xiao answered honestly, "but my teammates all have loud voices, and they were shouting from the side, so I wasn't so nervous. It felt really exciting."
This answer drew a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience.
[Haha, so true, Top Esports' loudest team!]
[Xiao Tian: Just give me my ID number!]
[Ah Shui: Dude, that's passion! You know what passion is?]
[Top Esports' coaching system definitely prioritizes whoever has the loudest voice!]
When the camera focused on the players' seats, I was afraid they'd scream!
hope Ran couldn't help but chuckle and continued, "So, what's the difference between the LPL stage and your previous experience in the LDL?"
"If the food is better, my teammates will be more 'pleasant to talk to'," Chen Xiao replied almost without thinking.
"puff!"
The audience at the scene and in the live broadcast room were instantly amused by this straightforward answer.
[Damn, the food has to be better! Dude, you're a genius!]
[Little Cream: I suspect you're subtly criticizing me, but I have no proof.]
[So true! Isn't the whole point of playing professionally just to make a living? (doge)]
Are all the members of Top Esports (TES) known for their sharp tongues? They're just like FPX back in the day!
【…】
"It seems that our LPL's logistical support is quite good." hope Ran smiled and smoothed things over, then steered the conversation back to the match itself.
"Today's match against WBG was incredibly exciting, especially the first game's stunning 2v5 comeback. How did the team communicate during that time? What made you and JackeyLove choose to charge in and make plays under those circumstances?"
As soon as this question was raised, everyone perked up their ears; it was exactly what everyone wanted to know.
Chen Xiao recalled for a moment, then said in a very calm tone, "I didn't think too much at the time. I just felt that the skateboarder's position wasn't very good, and there was a chance to kill him instantly, so I told Jack in voice chat, 'I can do it, trust me.'"
He paused and glanced at the audience.
"And then he followed."
A simple sentence, yet it made everyone feel once again the madness and trust behind that operation.
A newcomer dares to give orders, and a veteran dares to trust.
[Holy crap! "You can do it, trust me," and then he followed along! I give that a perfect score for that show of bravado!]
[A rookie dares to say that? How could I, the world champion ADC, back down? Let's go for it!]
This is the real Top Esports! It's just the right vibe!
"That sounds incredibly exciting," hope Ran remarked, then proceeded to introduce the main event of today's interview:
"So, after defeating WBG, which team in the LPL do you think will be Top Esports' biggest rival going forward?"
This is a very sensitive question.
The scene fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Xiao, waiting for his answer.
Chen Xiao held the microphone and remained silent for a moment.
Just when everyone thought he would give an official and tactful answer, Chen Xiao spoke up.
"JDG and BLG, I guess."
This answer was expected by everyone, after all, these two teams are currently recognized as the strongest in the league.
But Chen Xiao's next words caused an uproar in the audience.
"I recently saw a really interesting picture online." A playful smile appeared on his lips. "A Grim Reaper in a black robe, going door to door knocking."
"I think my task might just be to cosplay the Grim Reaper."
"Go and knock on the doors of those strong teams, one by one."
As Chen Xiao spoke, he looked directly at the camera and made a throat-slitting gesture.
This scene was captured perfectly by the director and projected onto the big screen!
boom!
The scene completely erupted!
mad!
That's insane!
This is no longer confidence; this is a blatant declaration of war!
A rookie who just finished his first LPL match actually boasted that he would challenge all the top teams in the league one by one!
What courage!
What arrogance!
!!!
【？？？？？？？？？？？】
[Holy crap! What did I just hear? Death knocking on the door?]
[Lucifer is so outspoken! He's definitely got the show going!]
[Damn, this guy's so arrogant! He's only won a few games and he's already this cocky?]
[How much did he drink? How dare he say such a thing!]
[Fun fact: During the S11 World Championship, Doinb said in an interview that he wanted to advance to the quarterfinals without losing a single game!]
[Haha, I love it! I love this kind of bold and outspoken personality! LPL needs newcomers like this!]
