The King Is Back Chapter 9

Losing to a master in the game and having his friend request rejected by the other party, a normal captain might be embarrassed, but Logan didn't mind it. He said calmly: "Everyone should pay close attention to the people in Mo Hen's team in the future, and report to me any news at any time."

The newcomers suddenly realized that the captain had set his sights on Mo Hen!

Lucas was the most considerate among the newcomers. He immediately smiled and said, "Captain, could this person be someone who knows you?"

"He looks very familiar to me. We must have fought each other before." Logan paused and frowned. "I can't think of which swordsman in the alliance he is. Everyone, keep a close eye on him. Maybe you will find him."

"Mo Hen ranks first on the skill list thanks to the secret skill of Jian Yu Piao Xiang. How about we get a secret skill tomorrow and then try to compete with him?" Lucas suggested.

"Okay." Logan turned around and asked him, "What time will the outdoor BSS refresh tomorrow?"

"Nine o'clock in the morning, in Sword God Valley."

"How difficult is this bss?"

"It's harder than the dungeon bss, but easier than the world bss. If they work well together, a team can defeat it."

Logan nodded and said, "Everyone, work hard tonight. Level up to level 30 before going to bed. Get up at 8:30 tomorrow and prepare to go to Sword God Valley to fight the BSS."

"Understood!" Everyone immediately started to actively complete the tasks and upgrade.

Since the entire opposing team withdrew from the dungeon and automatically gave up the treasure, Roger successfully won the reward for the secret treasure realm of Youran Villa. The doubled reward allowed the five of them to advance to level 26 again.

The little medicine fairy was very happy and praised: "Mo Hen is really amazing! Just now that person said shamelessly that he would give the treasure to them, but in the end he was killed by Mo Hen!"

Smiling but with a dagger in his heart he echoed: "That's right, he is no match for Mo Hen at all!"

In comparison, Patrick and Alex were much calmer, sending each other private chat pop-ups.

"The level of Qianli Bingfeng just now was not low. I feel that Mo Hen will win in the end. The secret skills played a big role." Alex said.

"Well, that guy's fighting style is fast and fierce. If it were me, I would be killed by his critical hits at the beginning." Patrick felt ashamed, "Mo Hen is on par with him. They are both masters, much better than us."

"If we offend Qianli Bingfeng today, will he cause trouble for us?" Alex worried. After all, the self-esteem of masters is stronger than that of ordinary people. If they lose in front of so many people, they might bear a grudge. If he causes trouble in the future, they will not be his opponent.

"That shouldn't be the case, right?" Patrick said, "After he lost, he decisively led his men to retreat. He seems to be a straightforward person. He wouldn't be so petty as to come and seek revenge on us."

"I hope so." Alex breathed a sigh of relief, "No matter what, let's reach level 30 tonight first."

The two ended the private chat pop-up windows and continued to take on high-difficulty tasks with their teammates. By around midnight, they had successfully reached level 30.

Most of the players in the game had just reached level 20 at this point, and the levels of the five of them were already far ahead of the main group.

Patrick sighed: "It's already 30!"

The last time he completed the internal test, it took him 20 hours working all night to reach level 30. Today, it only took him 12 hours to reach level 30. With Mo Hen's joining, the upgrade speed has indeed become very fast.

Roger glanced at the time and said, "I'm going to sleep first. Good night, everyone."

Patrick immediately said, "Good night, everyone! See you tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock!"

After turning off the computer, Roger rubbed his sore eyes and went to the bathroom. Playing games for a long time is a big test for the eyes. The fatigue caused by scenes that are too realistic will double. It is also very necessary to combine work and rest.

Roger lay in the big bathtub, closed his eyes, let himself relax, and took a good bath.

After taking a bath, Roger lay down in the bedroom, intending to have a good sleep, but he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

The scene of his fight with the assassin in the treasure secret realm of Youran Villa kept appearing in his mind.

Qianli Bingfeng's fighting style gave him a very strange sense of familiarity and made him think of someone.

That person became a professional player at a young age, and his playing style was full of vigor and sharpness. What was even more rare was that he had flexible thinking on the field. Sometimes he would suddenly launch an attack with a set of combos to kill his opponent, and sometimes he would constantly hide and move around to find opportunities, playing a beautiful maneuvering and consumption tactic. He would adjust his combat thinking according to different opponents, and his playing style was mysterious and unpredictable. His singles winning rate was extremely high, and because of this, he won the Best Newcomer Award of the year.

Roger also won the Best Newcomer Award a year earlier than him.

He debuted later than Roger, but he improved rapidly and soon caught up with Roger. Although Roger didn't say it, he recognized his level in his heart.

What's more, they were so close when they were young. Logan even said publicly in an interview: "Roger is my best friend."

The two men are of similar age and are both very talented. What's more, their masters are captains of powerful teams and train them as successors. Therefore, both of them are nicknamed "Little Prince". In addition, Logan always publicly says "Roger is my best friend", so fans gave them the nickname "League Gemini", which means "the two most promising young stars in the professional league."

Reporters often discuss the two of them together, and fans are also looking forward to it. After their master retires, will they take charge of their respective teams as successors? Will they become the two top gods of the new generation and play countless classic games on the field?

Unfortunately, Roger left too early, and the game everyone was looking forward to did not occur.

Thinking of the scene of their parting, Roger felt a little upset. He simply buried his face in the pillow and forced himself to fall asleep as soon as possible.

It was not until three o'clock in the morning that Roger finally fell asleep. However, the scene from that year appeared in his dream again.

There is the scene of him joining the Fengse Club at the age of fifteen and being spotted by the captain Ling Xuefeng and accepted as his apprentice. There is the scene of him finally winning the Best Newcomer Award at the award ceremony after many twists and turns. There is the scene of him being amazed by the blond and black-eyed boy Logan when he first saw him. There is also the scene of him following his master to the world competition and competing fiercely with masters from various countries.

At the end of the dream, it was the press conference of that year.

The young man bowed to the reporters with a heavy heart and apologized, choking up and saying, "I'm very sorry to my friends who like and support me. I've let you down."

Reporters rushed forward, vying to ask all kinds of sharp questions. Photographers quickly pressed the shutter at him, constantly taking pictures of his miserable appearance. Roger even felt like a gorilla being watched by people in the zoo. The bone-chilling coldness in his heart made his whole body feel like he was in an ice cellar. His legs were numb and almost unconscious, and his mind became blank.

He didn't remember how he left the press conference, but he clearly remembered that Logan suddenly stopped him.

Behind the scenes of the press conference, the blond boy quickly caught up with him and said loudly: "I will wait for you to come back! When we meet again one day, you will be able to defeat me with your own hands!"

These words hit Roger's heart like a heavy hammer, waking him up instantly from his dream.

At dawn, Roger casually put on a black pajamas, got up and walked to the window.

A drizzle was falling outside the window, and the drizzle made the city look particularly hazy, just like the rainy night when he left the Fengse Club. The rain blurred his vision, and he looked up, but could not see clearly the two elegant and flying characters of "Fengse".

At the beginning, he left Fengse Club alone when he was less than 18 years old. No one could understand the sadness and helplessness he felt at that time.

In the past few years, those fragmented dreams have been tormenting him over and over again. He knows he can't let go, so he gave himself a brand new chance, hoping to start over.

Roger likes the game "Du Bu Jiang Hu" very much. It is a rare opportunity for him to start over here.

Roger took a deep breath, went to the bathroom and washed his face with cold water to wake himself up completely.

He went to the kitchen and turned on the microwave to heat a cup of milk, but found that the microwave did not respond. Roger turned around to turn on the light, but it was not on. It seemed that there was a power outage at home. He called the property management to ask, and sure enough, the property management replied: "The community needs to rectify the circuit. There will be an eight-hour power outage from 8 am to 4 pm every day. Starting today, there will be a power outage for three consecutive days."

There was a notice in the elevator before, but Roger didn't pay attention. Now there was no water or electricity at home. He had no choice but to take his wallet and go downstairs to have breakfast.

It was a drizzling morning, and today was the weekend, so there were not many pedestrians on the street. Fortunately, several breakfast shops downstairs were already open. Roger held up a large black umbrella and went to the soy milk shop across the street to order a bowl of soy milk and a roujiamo.

While eating, he suddenly remembered that during a vacation, Logan came to visit him, and he also ordered roujiamo when he took Logan to have breakfast.

Logan had never eaten this before, and asked in confusion, "It's obviously a steamed bun with meat in it, why is it called roujiamo instead of steamed bun with meat?"

Roger explained: "Roujiamo means meat sandwiched in a steamed bun."

"Oh." Logan nodded and pointed to the scallion pancake next to him: "Is this called scallion bun?"

"Roger almost spit out the soy milk.

Another time, Roger took him out for coffee and accidentally mentioned "rubbing salt into the wound". Logan asked what this meant, and Roger patiently explained to him: "Rubbing salt into the wound is a metaphor, which describes that you mention a sad topic, making people even sadder. It's like someone has a wound on their body, which is already very painful, and you sprinkle a handful of salt on the wound, which makes the wound even more painful."

"Oh." Logan seemed to understand, "Why sprinkle salt? Can't you say sprinkle sugar? Putting sugar on the wound will also hurt."

"" Roger almost spit out his coffee again. After thinking for a long time, he came up with a reasonable explanation, "Sugar means sweetness in Chinese, and it can't make people think of pain. This has something to do with the context."

"Oh, context." Logan tilted his head and pondered for a moment, then said, "Drinking coffee with you feels very sweet."

"Someone at the next table looked over curiously, and Roger wished he could just bang his head against a wall and die.

When Logan was learning Chinese, he loved to draw inferences from one instance, but he always said some weird and twisted ideas. Since he grew up abroad, he was full of curiosity about everything in China after returning home. In addition, his Chinese level was too poor, so he often said things that made people laugh and cry. Every time I took him out, I felt embarrassed because he always asked a lot of weird questions and his grammar knowledge was so poor that people couldn't evaluate him.

But in fact, although Roger disliked Logan, he was willing to take him with him in his heart, because the time spent with him was always full of fun.

That was one of the few bits of warmth in the rigorous training and brutal competitions of my youth.

At that time, they were all underage and had very simple ideas. They only knew to train hard and play well according to the guidance of their master. They were of similar age and often got together. They usually played on the Internet with their trumpets and traveled together during holidays. Although they were in different teams, their relationship was better than that of teammates in the same team.

Logan has publicly stated many times that Roger is his best friend. Although Roger has never said this, he has already regarded the other party as his most precious confidant in his heart.

Thinking of the interesting things that happened with Logan when he was young, Roger's usually cold face became much softer.

After Roger finished eating the roujiamo, he took a tissue and carefully wiped his fingers, then walked out onto the street holding an umbrella.

At 7:30 in the morning, many shops were closed and the streets seemed a little deserted.

There was a power outage and water shortage in the community, and he had nothing to do when he got home. He looked up and saw a large sign on the second floor at the end of the street. There was a row of cute little fish painted on the sign, and in the middle were four big blue cartoon-style characters "Little Fish Cafe".

Roger thought about it, then turned and walked towards the bar.
