Chapter 8 Greatness Needs No Salt
Chen Wang had no idea what happened in the office after he left.
Back in the training room, Chen Wang started his live stream as usual.
However, the content of today's live stream was even worse than yesterday's.
[Conti's match-fixing is a joke, what do you know!]
[They dared to spread rumors and slander against the players on live stream; isn't the league going to do anything about it?]
Apologize to Conti, quickly.
[You shameless idiot! You're livestreaming yourself profiting from tragedy right now, aren't you? Keep eating, you won't have many more days to enjoy it.]
[WE hasn't treated you well? You can't even beat Letme, and the management is willing to give you a job, yet you still want revenge? Chen Wang, you have no heart!]
The fact that they went live despite the controversy left many onlookers dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Is it time to enjoy the Last Supper?
Once the league officially proves Condi innocent, wouldn't this idiot be immediately banned? How dare he still defy the rules?
Seeing the comments and gossip in the live stream, Chen Wang simply laughed it off: "No need to ban the moderators, those who want to criticize the streamer can use a badge and keep criticizing."
"If you give me a guardian status, I'll reserve a spot just for you to flame, okay? It's a VIP-exclusive no-flame spot. You can flame whatever you want, I'll flame you along with you, okay? The streamer will protect you, no one will dare to touch you, okay?"
So shameless!
The moderators, who were already sharpening their knives to pounce on the pigs and sheep, were stunned by these words. Their fingers hovered over the keyboard, unsure of what to do. Even the comments section went blank for a moment, followed by a barrage of question marks.
? ? ? ?
Immediately afterwards, a lucky guy actually gifted Chen Wang a magic book.
Chen Wang, quick-witted and outspoken, said, "Thank you, Chen Wang, for the magic book! Thank you, boss!"
"Boss, you've already sent me gifts, so feel free to say whatever you want. I definitely won't refuse."
The shop owner clearly hadn't expected Chen Wang to actually read his ID aloud. After being called out, it took him quite a while to type out a sentence.
Aren't you afraid the league will blacklist you? Your career will be over once Condi comes back, won't it?
While adjusting the equipment, Chen Wang replied, "I'm scared, so I'll just stream one show at a time. Everyone, watch and cherish it while you can. If you don't have a card yet, hurry up, because this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You won't be able to find a live stream to criticize later."
His tone was as relaxed as if he were doing a sales pitch, not at all like someone about to be ruined.
"Thank you, Letme, for the magic book. Thank you."
Although he didn't know which mole had leaked the information, Chen Wang didn't seem to care at all: "Although, I'm still the best in the world, okay?"
Holy crap, has this idiot gone mad?!
With this mindset, you'll succeed at whatever you do.
I'm speechless. I've never seen such a shameless person.
The trolls in the live stream suddenly felt like they'd punched cotton.
They had prepared a whole bunch of lines to greet Chen Wang, like "Chen Yegou is like this on the side of the road," "Letme, the prisoner, step forward," and "WE, you ingrate."
As a result, this person not only accepted all the negative comments, but also replied with a smiley face under each one.
Their skin is as thick as a city wall.
Does this person really have no sense of shame?
Chen Wang glanced at it and answered seriously, "What is a sense of shame? Can it be used as a coupon? Can it be exchanged for KFC?"
"No? Then I'm sorry, I don't have it."
The chat was in complete chaos. Some people tried to continue attacking, only to find that Chen Wang wasn't responding at all and had directly started queuing on the Korean server.
Some people started spreading rumors, saying that Chen Wang didn't take any top laner seriously.
Some people are even starting to wonder if they should actually use the VIP-exclusive no-flame slot to try and insult him? After all, the VIP-exclusive no-flame slot sounds pretty prestigious.
What are trolls most afraid of? They're most afraid of their target not reacting at all.
Chen Wang did more than just not react.
He's practically a McDonald's, getting slapped while complaining that the blows aren't strong enough.
This person's mentality is simply unbeatable.
The comments section was truly exasperated; they had only ever seen such a noble and unwavering mentality in that one man.
Faker.
It's hard to say about their actual strength, but in terms of mentality, they are truly on par.
As more and more comments expressed this idea, a white message eventually appeared in front of Chen Wang's eyes.
【Greatness Needs No Salt (White)】Current upgrade progress bar (54%): You have a good mindset. When the team is at a disadvantage, your operation will not be affected. You slightly affect the mentality of your teammates and make them feel a little more at ease.
They finally fell for it.
Chen Wang felt refreshed and invigorated. These weren't trolls or haters at all; they were clearly his good buddies!
I really beg you to have more audiences like this.
I waited for a while.
Chen Wang queued up and saw that the enemy top laner had picked Sion, so he immediately picked Vayne and started farming.
[Heh, all you can do is play long-range top laners and bully short-range ones.]
[Just feed, I'm ready to die if the jungler dares to come.]
[Let my captive show his weakness when playing a standard top laner]
[What I'm telling you is that even playing a ranged top laner won't beat the opponent.]
"Everyone, please stay calm," Chen Wang said to the chat while waiting for the loading screen to appear. "What if we win and you guys say that a long-range fighter against a short-range fighter doesn't count? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
Comments: ......
Upon entering the loading screen, Chen Wang inexplicably felt that the opposing top laner's ID looked somewhat familiar.
"Smeb, oh my, this guy's going to be tough."
As the officially recognized world number one in S6, Smeb's skill level is undoubtedly among the top tier.
Keep in mind, this is still Season 7, not the guy who will later ruin his career by drinking.
Yesterday I queued for over ten games before finally getting a match with Huni, and today my first match is with Smeb?
It was upon seeing Smeb's name that the comments section erupted in excitement once again.
[Teaching Chen Gou a lesson in manners]
[Jungling is still Lee Sin, it feels like Chen Gou has a 70/30 chance this game, getting ganked three times in seven minutes, it's awful]
However, Chen Wang's hero advantage was still quite obvious in this game.
Vayne's E can easily interrupt Sion's charged Q, and she is also quite agile, making it easy for her to kite Sion.
Taking advantage of his long reach, Chen Wang went up to the minion wave at level one and attacked Sion.
However, Smeb is clearly experienced.
Doran's Shield was used to start the game. He learned W upon entering the lane and managed to withstand two auto-attacks from Chen Wang before pulling back, trading his health for the minion wave.
Although Chen Wang was already using the bushes to avoid minion aggro, Smeb was also a master, and the minion wave inevitably pushed towards the opponent.
This is the most troublesome aspect of Smeb.
It's different from Huni.
This guy got a tank top laner, and he's really going to back down and not fight.
They'll accept the loss, but they have absolutely no intention of retaliating.
But Chen Wang wasn't in a hurry.
His first priority was to extract, which meant focusing on farming and developing as much gold as possible while maintaining a strong laning phase.
Anyone who has played this hero knows.
Aside from being very strong after getting Blade of the Ruined King, Vayne is a champion who focuses more on farming and dominating in the late game. Compared to champions like Jayce and Gnar, Vayne's role in the top lane is more similar to Jax and AD Kennen, where she takes on the role of split pushing in the late game.
The meaning of "Ruined Blade is invincible in the late game" is that you can kill someone as long as you can catch them in the early game.
Season 7 was still a version where hero durability wasn't increased. AD carries were as fragile as paper, and if they had any crowd control, they could be easily killed by a barrage of attacks. This is why many people liked to gank the bot lane.
In the early game, if a Lee Sin with Thunderlord's Decree lands a kick, a second Q followed by an E will take away most of his health. How could anyone not like that?
Soon, the blind monk came running, drawn by the scent.
