Only a protagonist would be able to enjoy the treatment of a solo hero.
This society was always full of complicated relationships. Even if Water Fairy was rich and had connections, she still received help from a lot of people on her way to growth.
Favors had to be repaid.
That was why she went to the livestream and was invited to commentate.
Otherwise, it would have been very difficult to invite Water Fairy to commentate through proper channels. After all, she gave off a very cold and aloof impression, and in reality, she was a person of few words. Not only was it not exciting to commentate with this type of person, but it was also very likely to cause an awkward silence.
Lu Li actually didn't like to be a commentator, but since Water Fairy had invited him, it was naturally a different matter.
Perhaps they felt that even if the two of them worked together, they might not be able to bring up the atmosphere in the stadium, so the organizing committee arranged for Dark Wind to form a small team of three to commentate with them.
The first match was between two unknown teams, which had been drawn at random.
Under normal circumstances, there would be no need for a commentator for a match without any technical content. However, low-end players clearly made up the majority of the audience. Even if there was no technical content in this type of match, the audience would still be able to find their own sense of immersion.
Moreover, the commentator couldn't just sit around and do nothing, so this kind of drawing became the focus of everyone's attention.
Today, Lu Li's team of commentators had drawn two lucky teams — although it was said to be a random draw, the system wasn't really random. If there was a huge disparity in strength between the two teams, there wouldn't be much to see in a one-sided crushing.
"I'm very happy to be commentating this match." Dark Wind was a veteran commentator, and he was also a great senior in the professional circle. Naturally, he was in charge of the entire rhythm of the commentary. "Today, I'll be partnering up with a few familiar faces. I believe that everyone knows who they are without me introducing them …"
"Thank you, Teacher Wind. I'm Lu Li." It was one thing for others to give him face, but if he really thought that everyone knew him, that would be too stupid. So, Lu Li still introduced himself properly.
"I'm Water Fairy. It's my pleasure to commentate this match," Water Fairy continued.
For a match like this, it would be good if there were a few thousand spectators, but because of the commentator, the number of spectators was more than ten times that. And if the commentator was at the level of Lu Li and Water Fairy, it wouldn't be strange for there to be millions of spectators.
So, rather than saying that they were here to watch the match, it would be more accurate to say that they were here to watch the cheating couple.
"Actually, when I found out that you'll be of a of a, when you're here to watch, you're here to watch?"
Everyone was dumbfounded. Lu Li and Water Fairy didn't understand either. As far as they knew, Dark Wind was a very friendly commentator. He wasn't the type to have a sharp tongue, so why did he have to be so harsh right off the bat?
Fortunately, he only took a small breath before he continued, "I'm already so old, yet I still have to eat dog food. I don't know what the organizing committee is thinking. They're bullying the elderly."
"Haha …" The audience burst out in laughter.
Dark Wind was actually not that old, but it was true that he was a single dog. The social circle of people in the gaming circle was relatively small, and they were instinctively wary of the internet. They were also a little idealistic, so marriage was a common problem for them.
"…" Lu Li and Water Fairy didn't know what to say.
"Here, I'd like to congratulate both of you for defending your own Strongholds. Now that I think about it, you already have four Strongholds, one more than The Capital of Glory." Dark Wind smoothly changed the topic.
"Uh, that's basically it," Lu Li replied.
He felt that the focus of this match had already deviated from the right track. It had shifted to him and Water Fairy.
Dark Wind, this old fox, had set a trap for him with his words.
If he said that they already had four Strongholds, didn't that mean that he and Water Fairy were one family? Otherwise, even if they were allies, there was no way they could put their Strongholds together.
Sure enough, after Lu Li confirmed it, Dark Wind asked further, "Then, according to the frontline battle report, Elevenless revealed that they were being retaliated against. Can the two of you explain the specifics?"
Explain your sister! Can't you just focus on the match? Lu Li really didn't want to talk.
"There's no such thing as retaliation." Instead, it was Water Fairy who spoke. She said in a natural and unrestrained manner, "It's just a normal attack and defense. Elevenless is a little paranoid. Everyone knows that …"
When did this happen? How did everyone know about it?
Dark Wind knew that enough was enough, so after satisfying everyone's desire to tease the cheating couple, he shifted everyone's attention back to the match. "This match is from Zone D of the qualifiers.
On one side is the Alliance's Cell Phone Stickers team, and on the other side is the Horde's Phecda Lions team. Uh, please ignore the slightly ridiculous name of the former. Cell phone stickers are a very ancient and traditional craft. This team has a record of three wins and one loss, so they are very likely to qualify for the official competition. On the other hand, the Phecda Lions team was born from the Phecda Lions Mercenary Group, and they have a record of four wins. I've watched some of their previous matches, and I feel that this will be a very exciting match. "
"The first half of the match is a single match. Both teams have sent out Mages for the first time," Lu Li reported the situation on the field. Actually, it was obvious that he was talking nonsense. Everyone could see the two Mages standing in the ring.
"Who do you think will win?" Dark Wind chose to test Lu Li and Water Fairy's judgment after the two competitors started fighting.
"The Cell Phone Stickers team's Mage will win," Water Fairy said.
"I think so too." Lu Li nodded.
"Why? They haven't lost much HP yet." Dark Wind could tell, but in order to liven up the atmosphere, he had no choice but to pretend to be a noob.
"Positioning," Water Fairy said.
"Yes, positioning," Lu Li agreed. He seemed to feel that this was a little perfunctory, so he explained in detail, "The Cell Phone Stickers team's Mage is standing at the edge of the maximum casting range. He'll interrupt two of his opponent's skills while moving, and he'll always be able to cast the right skills at the right distance. Even though they aren't dealing much damage right now, as this situation continues, the Phecda Lions team's Mage will be at a disadvantage."
In the course of his explanation, the situation unfolded exactly as he had said.
A few minutes later, the Phecda Lions team's Mage was killed. His equipment wasn't bad, but he didn't seem to know much about PvP, so he was toyed with by his peers. When he died, his opponent still had around 40% HP remaining.
"It seems like both of you guessed correctly. Who do you think the Phecda Lions will send? A Thief?" Dark Wind asked.
"If I were the team leader, I'd send a Warlock. That Warlock can just throw out a bunch of damage over time skills and solve the problem. This Mage's positioning is pretty good. It's obvious that he's the type of player who plays in battlefields or arenas. An ordinary Thief won't be able to suppress him," Lu Li said.
"A Paladin or a Druid is fine too. They can just heal themselves. This Mage's damage is average. He's already used his ultimate skills," Water Fairy added.
"Alright, you're both experts. That's the right thing to say," Dark Wind agreed.
The Phecda Lions were able to win four matches in a row, so they sent out a Druid. In the end, the Mage was dealt with quickly and easily.
"It seems like Water Fairy won. Then, according to our rules, Lu Li has to answer one of Water Fairy's questions. This game is similar to Truth or Dare. Water Fairy can ask a question now. This is a good opportunity," Dark Wind said cunningly.
