Silicon Invasion
#82 - Entrusted
Just this?
Feng Weiwei curled her lips. To be honest, she couldn't quite tell if that 'Moon Owl' was genuinely terrible or pretending.
If he was pretending, then the stumbling movements of the mech, the stiff mobility, and the constant suppression by enemy fire were all incredibly realistic.
But if he was genuinely terrible, then enduring such a heavy barrage for so long was indeed remarkable. Most importantly, he won the game.
In a competition, the victor is king. Winning justifies everything...
It's just that she felt a bit lost now...
"What do you think?" Cui Qiang asked Uncle Niu with a playful expression.
"I use my eyes to see!" Uncle Niu said unpleasantly.
Although this match was strange, he had already determined that this Moon Owl was throwing the game!
Saying he was throwing the game was a bit of an exaggeration. After all, Moon Owl wasn't a professional player, and he didn't actually lose the match. He was just using superior skills to control the direction of the match, making it more exciting and visually appealing.
Of course, the last point was just his own assumption. As an outsider, Uncle Niu thought the match was incredibly ugly.
To be honest, Moon Owl's opponent was not weak for a high school student. He was even ahead of most of his peers. At least Uncle Niu felt that he wasn't that strong at that age. It has to be said that he was a genius.
But Moon Owl was even stronger. He easily dominated the match, using clumsy acting to manipulate his opponent. He had surpassed the level of genius; he was a monster.
"Don't even think about it. I won't let you take him away. He shouldn't be limited to the realm of gaming. His future should be broader, and he should become the pride of our Dongmu people," Uncle Niu suddenly blurted out.
Cui Qiang looked at Uncle Niu with some surprise. Hadn't he just said that he would explain the pros and cons to Moon Owl and let him decide for himself? How did things change so quickly?
"Hehe, old friend, don't be nervous. I think you're overthinking it. Based on those two moves just now, he's not good enough to catch my eye." You may consider him a treasure, but others may not care.
Uncle Niu seemed not to hear the sarcasm in Cui Qiang's words. He turned his head and said seriously, "I hope so!"
"Heh ~ What are you going to do next? He's about to come out. Shouldn't you, as the host, arrange a chance encounter to let everyone meet?"
"Meet? If you listen to my arrangements, I'll buy you a ticket right away and tell you to get lost."
Uncle Niu said unceremoniously, hoping that such words would make Cui Qiang leave quickly. But he also knew that this was just wishful thinking. For someone shameless, the power of his verbal attacks was minimized.
"Don't be so heartless, old friend. Although I was your loser back then, that shouldn't create a gap between us."
"Hmph, you may not be my match now!"
"Niu Wei, you're really something. You still go out to compete often, but I've already switched to clerical work. You're comparing yourself to me?"
"Hmph, a good hero doesn't mention his past glory."
"Alright, alright. But to be honest, the skill gap between the two sides in that battle was a bit too large. I didn't really see anything."
"Hmph, don't try to fool me. I only believe the punctuation marks in what you say." Uncle Niu's grunts didn't stop. Usually a very stable person, he now acted like a spoiled little princess.
Cui Qiang was speechless. However, he wasn't lying just now. In the battle just now, the difference in level was too great, and Sun Gang was completely unable to probe Luo Rui's true strength.
Considering Luo Rui's age, this kid's potential was indeed good, but he was in charge of a league team, not a training institution. He needed the players to realize their potential in a short period of time.
And for a self-taught player like Luo Rui who hasn't undergone systematic training, unless his talent is truly extraordinary, Cui Qiang would rather wait for him to grow a bit and then sign him at a higher price, rather than buy him now to watch the water dispenser.
However, an eighteen-year-old super genius is indeed a good gimmick. If Luo Rui puts in the effort, then he and the investors behind him will definitely make a fortune.
But if Luo Rui doesn't deliver, then this investment will definitely be a losing business. Although investment is certainly accompanied by risks, a risk assessment must be carried out.
It's just that there's too little information at the moment, and this guy Niu Wei is like a rock in a latrine, smelly and hard. It seems a bit difficult to get more information from him.
Fortunately, he was just entrusted to come along and take a look at a promising player. Of course, if the player is really good, then he will definitely try to poach him halfway.
But now he can just use this matter to make a big deal out of it.
"Niu Wei, actually you misunderstood me. This time I was also entrusted to come and take a look at this Moon Owl. If he's really good, others will come over."
"Who? Your cronies?"
"Niu Wei, it's not interesting for you to say that. Speaking of which, you're also one of us. I don't believe you haven't had your eye on this Moon Owl. In that case, what's the difference between you and me?"
Uncle Niu was speechless and silent. Indeed, managers like Cui Qiang are meant to discover and absorb fresh blood for the team. And as the captain, because the Star Arena has limited strength, the team can't have such complete equipment. In fact, to some extent, he also performs the duties of a manager.
So, he couldn't refute Cui Qiang's words.
Seeing Niu Wei fall into silence, Cui Qiang stopped while he was ahead and didn't continue to provoke him: "We've been friends for so many years. Think about it yourself, when have I ever lied to you?"
"Heh, quite a few times." Uncle Niu looked disdainful. He could think of many things with a quick turn of his mind, which showed how many lies this person had told. Why didn't he have any self-awareness?
"What? Have I lied to you? Don't talk nonsense!"
"Wang Yue's matter, Jiazi Esports' matter, Ti Yue Esports' matter..." Uncle Niu didn't hold back, exposing his shortcomings like counting family treasures, rattling them off.
"Damn it, those were all benevolent concealments. How can you say they were lies? That's insulting, understand?" This time it was Cui Qiang's turn to be unable to hold back, and he quickly interrupted Uncle Niu, not letting him continue.
"Hmph!" Uncle Niu snorted disdainfully. How could this kind of person shamelessly say that he had never lied to him?
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about the past. Just this time, I swear to God, I'm absolutely, absolutely telling the truth." Cui Qiang put his palm to his ear, looking serious.
But Uncle Niu didn't buy it at all, still wearing a stinky face.
"Niu Wei, you have to trust me a little. Don't worry, the person who entrusted me is not from our system. If he really catches their eye, then it will definitely be a great opportunity for Moon Owl."
Seeing Cui Qiang's determined look, curiosity arose in Uncle Niu's heart: "Who? What opportunity?"
