"Soul Eater's temper has been getting worse lately, especially when you're showing off your affection," Vegetarian Mosquito glanced at Lu Li again. He couldn't figure out how Lu Li was better than Soul Eater. In comparison, Soul Eater was clearly more manly and had the demeanor of a king.
In terms of personal charm, Soul Eater was also a notch higher than Lu Li in everyone's eyes.
Of course, they couldn't help but admire Lu Li. He seemed to be poorer than Soul Eater, but he rose up faster than him. Furthermore, he didn't receive any help from anyone.
"So it's my fault." Lu Li felt guilty under Water Fairy's glare.
He no longer hated Soul Eater. In fact, he could even understand him.
Lu Li hated Soul Eater, and Soul Eater also hated Lu Li.
If you liked a woman, and this woman had other suitors around her, and this suitor was deeply trusted, perhaps even more than her boyfriend at some point, if you still planned to coexist with such a person, you either had a green hat plot, or you were a saint to a certain extent.
Correspondingly, Soul Eater had enough reason to hate Lu Li.
He had protected Water Fairy for many years, and he had done everything for Water Fairy. Even though Water Fairy had rejected him, wasn't that how chasing a girl was? If you gave up after being rejected once, then it definitely wasn't true love.
Water Fairy wasn't someone who was easy to woo. He had thought that this situation would continue.
Perhaps one day, Water Fairy would be moved. Even if she wasn't moved, when Soul Devourer became Water Fairy's indispensable right-hand man, for the sake of benefits, and in the absence of a more suitable candidate, he would still have a great chance.
Who would have thought that Lu Li would appear out of nowhere?
"Thank you for telling me about this. Whether it's the Drizzle Court or Peerless City, there will definitely be a place for you." Water Fairy had already accepted the fact that Soul Eater was about to betray her. In fact, such signs had appeared a long time ago. However, she had always trusted this subordinate of hers and never thought that he would betray her.
"Thank you, sister Water Fairy. I … just want to focus on the competition." Vegetarian Mosquito was worried that he would leave a bad impression on Water Fairy if he helped her.
In a sense, Vegetarian Mosquito was also a traitor.
He had originally jumped ship, but not long after, he betrayed Soul Eater.
"I understand. I'm also a competitor." Water Fairy smiled. She was sincerely grateful to the innocent competitor in front of her.
If no one reminded him, he could foresee the tragic outcome of this matter.
Thirty to forty elite teams would be taken away, and perhaps more than half of the competitors would be taken away as well. A club that could make it into the top ten would suffer a huge blow. These were the direct losses, as well as the damage to their image. If a guild wanted to develop again after losing all of their higher-ups, they would have to pay a much higher price than before.
Drizzle Court would also be affected. After all, they were from the same family. It was inevitable that their image would be damaged.
Lu Li logged off the game and went to the canteen to eat. He coincidentally bumped into Genhao San.
"Why are you eating here today? Did you break up with your girlfriend?" Genhao San teased. Lu Li actually didn't go find Water Fairy every time they went out to eat. They would only go out to eat occasionally. When he bumped into someone who came back to eat with them, he would make it seem like they ate together every day.
"Something happened. Why are you alone, Brother Three?" Lu Li didn't laugh. He was secretly happy that Soul Eater was leaving, but he had to face the danger that Peerless City was facing.
If Drizzle Court suffered losses, then Water Fairy would suffer losses. And if Water Fairy suffered losses, how could Lu Li stay out of it?
"That's a very hurtful question. I'm alone, unlike you guys who are in pairs. How could I not be alone?" Square Root did not know where this resentment came from, but he seemed to have been provoked in some way today.
"Brother Three, aren't you going to ask me what happened?" Lu Li changed the topic.
"If you want to say it, then say it. Don't keep me in suspense. I'm busy." Genhao San was calm. He really wanted to ask, but looking at Lu Li's attitude, even if he didn't take the initiative to ask, he would say it himself. No matter how calm a young man was, he was still too inexperienced.
So, Lu Li told Genhao San everything that had happened.
Lu Li trusted Genhao San absolutely. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said it without hesitation.
In fact, Genhao San was to Lu Li like Soul Eater was to Water Fairy. Of course, the relationship between Soul Eater and Water Fairy had to be removed. Lu Li didn't believe that Genhao San would betray him, just like how Water Fairy didn't believe that Soul Eater would betray her.
Soul Eater betrayed him because he couldn't get what he wanted.
But Brother Three wouldn't do that. Brother Three was a man. Lu Li had to be thankful for this. If Genhao San was a girl, Lu Li would have doubted his loyalty.
Men and women working together wasn't tiring. When it came to matters of love, people would completely lose their rationality.
"About this, I'm not surprised at all." Genhao San digested the news that Lu Li brought. Finally, he shook his head calmly. "I'm quite familiar with Soul Eater. We can barely be considered as friends. This really seems like something he would do. So, that Mosquito's guess is probably right. There's no need to probe anymore, lest we alert the enemy."
"Oh, Brother Three knows Soul Eater?" Lu Li was surprised.
"You can say that. In fact, our circle is called the professional managers in the gaming circle. Everyone interacts with each other. When I first left Star Moon Guild, Soul Eater even introduced me to a job," Genhao San said.
"What do you think of this person, Brother Three?" Lu Li asked.
"Soul Eater. His ability is very good, but his heart is also very big." Genhao San weighed his words. He didn't deliberately belittle Soul Eater. Everyone knew about Soul Eater's ability.
However, his big heart attracted Lu Li's attention. "Soul Eater? His background isn't too good.
I heard that he's an illegitimate child. When he was young, he almost starved to death. After entering the game, he created a small guild. Unfortunately, he didn't have money or people. It only lasted for one or two years before it disbanded. Later, he met Water Fairy. Water Fairy gave him a big stage. First, it was Drizzle Court, then it was Peerless City. Compared to other professional managers, his opportunities are considered good. "
"Then why did he betray you? Is it really because he likes Water Fairy?" Lu Li couldn't understand.
"That's only part of the reason. Actually, ever since you hooked up with Water Fairy, his departure was inevitable. The only difference was whether he left quietly or took something that he thought belonged to him," Genhao San explained. "To put it bluntly, if Soul Eater could get Water Fairy, he would naturally get Peerless City and even Drizzle Court. He probably dreamed of this deal even in his dreams. Unfortunately, you're a b * tch. You ruined his beautiful dream. It's already good enough that he didn't find someone to kill you."
"It's better to rely on yourself than to rely on the heavens or the earth," Lu Li was very disdainful.
"There's nothing to fear about Soul Eater. Your wife has plenty of ways to deal with him. Soul Eater has probably forgotten the magic of capital." Genhao San laughed coldly. "If Water Fairy was a little more ruthless, she could completely make Soul Eater lose his footing in this industry. He's just a manager, unlike you. You're a professional player."
Compared to a professional player, it was too difficult for a manager to establish his own power.
Unless he had a huge amount of capital in hand, he could first poach a group of professional players, win a few competitions to create a brand effect, and then slowly build his own team. Otherwise, how could he attract people to join him with just a manager?
As for Soul Eater looking for capital …
He could even betray Water Fairy. Who could guarantee that they would be able to satisfy his appetite?
The amount of trust and support Water Fairy had for Soul Eater had been discussed in the gaming circle over the past few years. Many people couldn't understand it.
Peerless City could even beat Drizzle Court in some competitions, which was almost impossible in the history of gaming. The Capital of Glory also followed the same path as Peerless City when they formed Gale Legion. However, they weren't as thorough as Water Fairy. The Capital of Glory's main force was still in the headquarters.
If Soul Eater wanted to jump ship, they would need to give him more power, more power than what he had now.
There wasn't a single club in the gaming circle that had the ability to do this.
"This person … what a pity …" Although they were rivals in love, Lu Li still felt a little sorry for him. However, he wouldn't do anything for him. If he had the chance, he wouldn't even mind hitting him when he was down. After all, an enemy was an enemy.
"Hey, Lu Li," Genhao San suddenly said mysteriously as he came over.
"What do you want to say? Why are you being so mysterious?" Lu Li didn't understand.
"If you marry Water Fairy in the future, will Drizzle Court, Peerless City and Ruling Sword merge together?" Genhao San smiled sweetly.
"Three bro, what are you thinking?" Lu Li was shocked.
"I don't believe that you haven't thought of this possibility," Genhao San said with a look of disdain. "I find that you're becoming more and more pretentious. Or have you never thought about marrying Water Fairy? Oh, so you just want to play around."
"Dammit, Three bro, lower your voice. What are you shouting for?" Lu Li really wanted to tear this person's mouth apart.
"After you get married, are you going to split your assets? There's no faster development strategy than taking over two large clubs," Genhao San said with a hint of schadenfreude. This was the schadenfreude of a single dog. It was full of malice. What was originally a very pure relationship was now no longer pure.
"I don't think I need to think about this. Ruling Sword will definitely reach the top in the future," Lu Li said confidently.
"No matter how big Ruling Sword is, can it be bigger than Ruling Sword + Peerless City + Drizzle Court? You really haven't gone to school. This math problem …" Genhao San laughed so hard that he couldn't stand straight.
"Dammit, if you keep talking, I'll kill you," Lu Li said angrily.
