So, some things weren't exaggerated at all.
Back then, Lin Feng's group of five were considered top geniuses in the eyes of the oldest and most experienced pro players in the circle. However, every single one of them, without exception, had been traumatized for several years by a mere Mini Hamster Game Machine.
Lin Feng.
Li Shiyi.
Even Tian Tian was the same.
The moment he saw the familiar Gopher, the dignified top laner of the national server and even the world turned pale on the spot. He looked as if he was about to faint. Ceng Rui couldn't help but feel a little speechless. He secretly whispered to Anxin beside him:
"Did they really train that hard back then?"
An Xin covered her mouth and giggled. "Their hands were always cramping up when they went to bed at night after training."
Only Huangxue Nightsong, Morning Star, and Shi Hang didn't understand the situation. When they saw Tian Tian's pale face, they were even more surprised. They took the Mini Gophers from Li Shiyi's hands and looked it over.
"What's this?"
"A Mini Gophers? How did it cause such a big reaction? "
"Oh, right. How did it cause trouble?"
Li Shiyi gave them a simple explanation of what had happened. Only then did they realize what was going on. Their gazes toward the Mini Gophers changed once more. They were even more eager to try it out.
"It's for training your hand speed …"
"Did you guys use this to train your reaction speed in S1?"
When Lin Feng saw that they were excited, he encouraged them, "Do you want to try it too?"
Hearing this, Tang Bingyao and Ceng Rui revealed looks of anticipation. Even though it was theoretically possible to estimate the results of players of different skill levels in the Gopher Challenge, it was only in theory. It was better to see it with one's own eyes.
"Let me try it out!"
Huangxue Nightsong was the first to volunteer. He rolled up his sleeves and picked up the Mini Gophers. He didn't forget to check with Lin Feng.
"Nightmare difficulty, one-handed, right?"
"You played it for seven minutes?"
Lin Feng corrected. "Seven minutes and nine seconds."
Shi Hang couldn't help but smirk. "Nine seconds? Is there a need to be so calculative?"
Lin Feng laughed mischievously and said, "You'll see if it works or not when you try it yourself."
The commotion attracted the attention of Number One and Number Five, who were ordering. Number Five looked over and smiled. "Looks like this Gopher machine is going to become popular in the three clubs."
Number One glanced at him briefly before looking away and continuing to order.
"A few brats who have nothing better to do … It's good to find something for them to do."
At the end of the day, no matter what level a player was at, training their reaction speed and hand speed was absolutely the right thing to do.
…
A Nightmare Mode Hamster Challenge began.
It soon ended.
The electronic screen of the mini game console displayed the final time — 5 minutes and 45 seconds.
"Tsk, Old Ye, you're not good enough." Shi Hang was the first to gloat. "What was Sister Tang Tang's score again? It should be almost six minutes, right? You can't even beat her! "
The three of them were very familiar with each other, especially during the recent training sessions between the three guilds. Whenever they chatted, Barren Snow Nightsong would always brag about his hand speed and reaction speed, which made it impossible for anyone to find fault with him. It was a rare opportunity for Shi Hang to tease him, so of course, Shi Hang wouldn't let it go.
Li Shiyi was a bit kinder. "It's already pretty good. It'll take some time to get used to it."
Tian Tian nodded in agreement. "The first time I played it … I made a mistake after three minutes."
Truth be told, any other pro player wouldn't want to embarrass themselves by saying this, but Tian Tian was honest. His hand speed was only slightly better than Li Shiyi's among the five of them. When he first started playing the Gopher machine, it took him a lot of effort and a lot of pain to get used to it.
Shi Hang was already ready to grab the Gopher machine.
"Alright, it's my turn!"
After watching Huangxue Nightsong play a round, he couldn't help but feel his hands itch.
But Wildsnow Nightsong slapped his hand away before he could finish. He glared at him. "What? I'm not done yet!"
The ace ADC of Team God was starting to get into a fight with the Gophers.
"Damn, I didn't play well just now."
"That wasn't my real skill at all!"
"Let's go again!"
With that, he started another round.
And Barren Snow Nightsong wasn't boasting. After getting used to the difficulty and rhythm of the first round, the start of the second round was obviously much smoother. Using one hand, his fingers quickly moved and tapped on the electronic screen. It had been four minutes, then five minutes, then six minutes …
Finally, he made a mistake at six minutes and 20 seconds, missing a Gopher and ending the game.
"Again!"
This time, Huangxue Nightsong didn't even wait for the others to speak before he started a third round.
As for the third round … he was finally able to bring out the full extent of his abilities.
Six minutes and 45 seconds!
Even though Huangxue Nightsong was sweating profusely after three rounds, Ceng Rui, Li Shiyi, and Tang Bingyao couldn't help but praise him. Even Lin Feng couldn't help but nod in approval.
"Not bad!"
Yes, just from this result, it could be seen that Huangxue Nightsong's reaction speed and hand speed had already far surpassed the level of a first-rate pro player. He might not even be inferior to an ordinary Seven Kings.
But even so, Huangxue Nightsong wasn't satisfied. He looked up at Lin Feng.
"You played for seven minutes and 09 seconds?"
This time, he took the initiative to count the remaining 9 seconds. He wouldn't know until he experienced it for himself, but after experiencing it for himself, he realized that every second of improvement in the later stages of the game was a huge leap forward.
Lin Feng shrugged. "I won't get the same result if I keep playing now."
Huangxue Nightsong nodded. He couldn't help but feel discouraged. "Damn … the difference is too big."
He was still a little unwilling to give up. After all, his control and hand speed had always been his strong points that he was most proud of. But now, even if he wanted to continue challenging, he did not have the strength to do so. He knew that even if he tried a few more rounds, his results would not be much better. 6: 45 was almost his current limit.
The second player was Shi Hang, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time.
He also played three rounds in a row.
The first round was very cautious, and he only managed to get four minutes. Huangxue Nightsong, who was waiting to watch a good show, immediately laughed at him.
The second and third rounds, however, were as good as he should be, with six minutes and five seconds respectively.
After finishing the game, Shi Hang threw the game console on the table as if he was exhausted. He fell back on the chair, sweating profusely as well. He sighed with emotion.
"Damn … this really isn't meant for humans."
Even the shadow puppets sitting further away heard the commotion and came over to try their luck. Their five minutes were average, and Ceng Rui, who was also a support player, felt a little better.
In the end, there was only one person left who hadn't tried.
Everyone turned to look at him. Morning Star calmly nodded.
"Then I'll try too."
