Chapter 985: The Part-Time Expert (1)
#Electronic Sports Headline: Ji He Starts A Slaughter Whenever She Wants#
“Wind God, why are you still here, when will you go?”
“Go where?” Ming Shu looked at the person in front of her blankly. Or… is it a human? It looked a little unreal, like a virtual character.
“Where else could it be, didn’t you say you were going to sign the contract with Jintian Club today?” the boy in armor standing opposite from her murmured. “You should have gone and played professionally a long time ago, you know, with your powerful skills, you’re just wasting your talent on such a petty job here.”
Ming Shu turned her head to look around, and a moment later she figured her current situation out through the boy’s arrogant words.
It was a holographic game.
But the question is…
How am I gonna leave the game?
“Wind God, what are you doing?”
Ming Shu raised her hand and clicked everywhere at random. Others couldn’t see her screen but could still see her movements. So Ming Shu’s behavior right now was quite weird.
Ming Shu couldn’t just tell him that she was looking for how to get offline, right?
Like what he called her, the soul in this body was at least superior. If she didn’t even know how to get offline, she would be hopeless.
“I’m busy, will be leaving now.” Finally, Ming Shu figured out how to get offline.
“Wait…” The boy seemed to want to say something else, but Ming Shu couldn’t hear him now.
Ming Shu exited from the game. She was now sitting in a chair with a game helmet on her head.
It was not a big room but it was very neat, with two beds placed separately on the left and right.
She was sitting before the desk on the left side. On the right side, there were posters posted on the bed and desk, from which you could easily tell that their owner was a 2D enthusiast.
Ming Shu looked at the simple and clean painting style on the left side, a little relieved. She wasn’t the 2D enthusiast, thankfully.
There was no one else in the room, so the 2D enthusiast might have gone out.
Ming Shu immediately began to receive the storyline.
The fake female protagonist in this world was called Tao Zi, who returned to the present time from the future and occupied this Tao Zi’s body.
In the future, the fake female protagonist didn’t have a good life; instead, she saw all kinds of news about how the male and female protagonists loved each other.
After she crossed time and returned to the present, the fake female protagonist’s eyes fell on the male protagonist.
Why could the female protagonist have such a perfect man? Now that she knew the future, why couldn’t she snatch the man?
The background was about holographic games. At this time, the holographic game had just begun to spring up, but the holographic games that were released were not popular yet.
The key problem that caused poor experience was the inconvenient operation.
Until the holographic game Asking Gods was pushed out. As early as the stage of its closed beta, the game had received explosive positive comments from the game community.
One account for the closed beta could be sold at a sky-high price.
In the future, Asking Gods wouldn’t be replaced, either. It would instead occupy the most important position in the holographic game circle.
The fake female protagonist knew that the male and female protagonist met each other in this game and then became the ideal couple that would be envied by everyone in the future.
The fake female protagonist didn’t catch up with the closed beta, but she managed to enter the game anyway and began to run into the male protagonist accidentally in different ways. Thanks to her persistent coincidences, and with the help of her skills that she had practiced and mastered in the future, she then managed to join the HS Team where the male protagonist was included.
She became the only girl in the team and soon made a name for herself in the Esports circle.
And she successfully earned a place in the male protagonist’s heart.
The Host was called Ji He.
A closed beta player in Asking Gods. Actually, Ji He could be counted as a top expert in all kinds of keyboard games.
But because Ji He used different roles, sometimes her avatar was male and sometimes it was female. And since she never sent voice messages or made video calls, others were quite confused about her gender.
Ji He’s gender became a mystery.
When holographic games began to rise, Ji He played one of them. But she decisively abandoned it because of its poor experience and inconvenient operation.
After Asking Gods was published, the female protagonist strongly recommended it to her, so she signed up on a closed beta account and had a try.
Ji He used to be the female protagonist’s master, so the female protagonist called her “Master” the whole time.
After the female protagonist recommended the game to the Host, she hadn’t gone online for a long time because of family matters. When she finally came back, Asking Gods had become virally popular.
Ji He treated her little disciple well. In the game, she always helped and protected the female protagonist when she met any difficulty.
The female protagonist showed up late and the fake female protagonist already had a place in the male protagonist’s team. But after the fake female protagonist met the female protagonist in the game, and seeing the female and male protagonist talk to each other, the fake female protagonist suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
She knew how glorious these two would be in the future, and they would have a tacit understanding between each other.
So, she would by no means allow them to have much contact.
Ji He played a male avatar, so the fake female protagonist told the male protagonist that the female protagonist had some vague relationship with “him,” and she often saw them hanging out together.
She posted screenshots on bbs and ensured that everyone in the whole server knew about it.
The fake female protagonist started rumors about Ji He and the female protagonist constantly. Ji He helped clarify the facts for the female protagonist, but was instead considered to be trying to hide the truth.
Just at that time, someone invited Ji He to join the club and become a professional player.
Ji He considered it for some time and was prepared to sign the contract, but then was suddenly told that it was canceled.
Ji He felt that she had been fooled and wanted to request a fair reason, then she accidentally learned that it was ruined by the fake female protagonist.
Ji He signed into another club later.
And since then, she held a grudge against the fake female protagonist and embarked on the road of becoming evil.
However, in the end, Ji He’s name became muddied and she became an object of public scorn.
[The Host’s wish is to become the top player ranking at the peak in the Esports circle.]
Ming Shu came here a little late. Now some people had already begun to invite her to join clubs, and Ji He was going to sign the contract today…
That’s what the boy said just now.
Ming Shu rubbed her head.
Games ruin the youth!
Playing games was no better than having snacks!
The sound of a key opening the lock came from the door, and Ming Shu turned her head to watch. A little girl in a lolita dress came in with a big bag of snacks.
“Yi? Baby Ji He, you haven’t left yet.” The girl had a cute face, wore a pink bowknot on her head, and looked very young.
Ming “Baby Ji He” Shu stared at the snacks in the girl’s hands.
“Yes…”
“It’s so hot outside.” The girl closed the door and came in. She took out a carton of ice cream from the snack bag. “Here, my treat. It’s your favorite vanilla flavor.”
“What a kind person.”
The girl gave Ming Shu several more snacks when she saw her staring at the bag intently.
Ming Shu revealed a sweet smile.
May kind people be blessed with life-long peace!
“Puh, what’s wrong with you today?” The girl burst out laughing. “Are you happy enough to go out of your mind because you’re going to sign the contract with Jintian? It shouldn’t be… Baby Ji He, you’re an expert and you’ve experienced strong winds and heavy rains.”
The latter part was the girl’s buttering up.
Ming Shu ate the ice cream and responded vaguely.
The girl was called Yun Yu, the Host’s roommate.
The Host was now studying for a master’s degree and lived in the postgraduate dormitory assigned by the school.
Yun Yu checked the time. “It’s nearly ten o’clock, Baby Ji He, can you make it in time? Do you want me to drive you there?”
Ming Shu: “…”
She forgot that her roommate was a rich girl.
“No need,” Ming Shu refused. She would be refused anyway, so it didn’t matter whether she arrived late or not.
Cheers for the snacks first!
