ADAPTED FROM BUTTERFLY BLUE'S NOVEL OF THE SAME NAME, THE KING'S AVATAR

Ye Qiu, I got caught.

-What should I do? -It's good.

It's your style to be caught and hit, then admit defeat.

Bastard. Do you want to fight me?

All right. I'll let you see how I lose.

-Wei Chen! -Who asked you to save me?

-Sir, was I wrong to save you? -Of course you were.

Running away is better than wasting time setting up the Ice Soul.

You're so despicable.

The Warlock lay there to attract me,

and then the Phantom Demon sneaked an attack!

Shameless.

Hasn't your leader told you

that the formation of Team Blue Rain is all about containment?

Yifan.

Let's show him what the real containment is.

Yes, sir!

Can you stop running, Ye Qiu?

Are you imitating Sun Xiang today?

Don't be afraid. Confront me like a man.

Ye Qiu, have you ever thought that you would end up like this?

To save your life, you don't even dare to face me.

I'm going to catch you.

There you go.

What are you thinking about, Shaotian?

I'm right by your side.

Why don't you turn around?

So the almighty Sword Saint is stuck, isn't he?

Hey! You shameless bastard!

You made me get stuck like a Boss in the Dungeon.

Well done, Ye Qiu.

Wait for me to get out! We'll see!

Why can't I get out?

On the other side,

One Inch Ash and Windward Formation are advancing.

Brilliant Edge is going to stop them.

Although Happy outnumbers the opponent,

they are weak in regards their classes.

But Steamed Bun Invasion appeared suddenly.

With his brick, he knocked down Brilliant Edge from behind.

It's their typical style.

Good job, Bao Zi.

The essence of stalling is never confronting enemy head-on.

You're a scholar now.

Firing from the roof,

Blue Rain's Spitfire is trying to stop Happy.

Wei Chen, our path is blocked. What should we do now?

They have terrain advantage.

Happy is dodging their opponent's attack.

Hiding in his blind spots,

they've managed to elude Blue Rain's Spitfire.

Magic Chaser!

Soft Mist defeated Bullet Rain and group up with her teammates.

A perfect coordination by Happy.

Wei Chen, why are you running away?

We've agreed to stay here, haven't we?

You have the right to be despicable.

But your teammates are innocent.

What? Am I wrong?

We're getting to the destination.

It's in the bag.

Before getting to the destination, Happy is stopped by Blue Rain.

The ultimate fight is imminent.

How do we fight this time?

I'll show you the essence of stalling.

Wait.

Do you know who I am to your captain?

Did you see that he was respectful to me when I entered the room?

Attack now.

Happy made a surprise attack.

Yes, their coordination is flawless.

-Good job. -That's what you teach us.

Being hell-bent is the best way.

Hexagram Prison.

Facing his former captain, Yu Wenzhou doesn't hesitate at all.

The head-on fight begins

between the former and current captains of Blue Rain,

the users of Swoksaar and the great Warlocks.

To fight a character he used to own,

I wonder what's on Wei Chen's mind.

Captain Wei, how are you?

-Who's next? -It's me, Captain.

Yu Wenzhou.

-Come here. -Okay.

The minimum standard for pros is 200 APM.

Some people can even reach 400.

But you barely reach 200,

so you have to rely on your awareness to compensate for your APM.

For example, predict the opponent's next position.

It's a surprise that he predicted my ambush

and calculated the time I would spend arriving here.

How interesting.

Well done.

I was too tired. Let's do it again.

Okay.

He thought he could defeat me again with the same trick.

He has underestimated the professional players.

Just like the previous game.

Good job. One more time. I'll fight you seriously this time.

Thank you for your teaching.

You're great.

I'm going to buy Coke.

He played it steadily this time.

-He's improved enormously. -Yes.

Hey, Captain. Where are you going?

To get Coke, just like I said.

You scared me. I can get it for you.

But that guy, Yu Wenzhou, was so lucky to meet you.

You're building his confidence by deliberately losing to him.

Be good in the future.

Curse Sword may kill Windward Formation if it hits him.

But it was stopped by Gatling Gun from Lord Grim.

How could you attack your former captain mercilessly?

You should respect the elders.

Yu Wenzhou, let him go.

Show your kindness to him.

He has been traumatized ever since you defeated him.

That's why he retired abruptly.

Bullshit!

I just wanted to give the young a chance.

How dare you slander me like this? I'll defeat you first.

Are you crazy? It's useless to attack your teammates.

I don't care if it's useless. Hitting you makes me feel good.

Everyone's ready to fight.

Gatling Gun is going off, but the target is Windward Formation.

Although he can't be harmed,

it means something is wrong within Happy.

Was it an internal conflict?

The situation is unexpectedly weird now.

Captain, I'm coming out.

Come on, let's kill Ye Qiu together now.

Shit!

All the members of Blue Rain have been buried by the collapsing walls.

How awesome! I wonder what's the expression on their faces.

Congratulations! Everyone in Happy has qualified.

Good teamwork, Wei Chen.

I knew you were prodding me.

If I hadn't perceived your trick, who would've cooperated with you?

When you're playing,

how did you feel?

Cut your crap. Give my Silver equipment back to me.

DEATH'S HAND

Bastard, you didn't give me my equipment until now.

Aren't you afraid of losing the game?

On the contrary,

if you rely heavily on your weapon and give up your own advantage,

you'll lose the game.

Wei Chen,

your awareness is more important to your success

than your weapon and execution.

Wei Chen, good job.

Mr. Wei, you're awesome.

Your tactic worked.

Now you know the power of stalling.

You'll have to learn more in the future

because I've got many tactics to teach you.

I'm thirsty. I need Coke.

Captain Wei.

Good job.

You're better.

I'm not talking about this game.

The year before last year, Swoksaar changed a new weapon.

With Curse of Destruction, he fought against Tyranny.

He won the game and lost 15 percent of his health points.

Everyone was stunned.

The upgrading of equipment last year

upgraded Swoksaar's ultimate attack by two levels.

The final in which Blue Rain won the championship was pretty good.

The live audience was...

In another word, you have been playing well in recent years.

You deserve to be called The First Warlock.

You passed Swoksaar to me.

You also taught me how to play.

What I passed to you was just an account.

The person making him a success in the league is you.

Speaking of teaching,

it seemed I didn't do it.

Do you remember when you and Shaotian had a practice match in the training room?

When Troubling Rain was imprisoned by Swoksaar's Hexagram Prison,

you told Shaotian,

"Although I can't see you because you're behind the rock,

not only can I guess what your next step will be,

but calculate the position you'll move to

and the time you need."

That's predicting.

It's an ability that every Warlock has to practice and master.

It sounds like something I've said.

You took care of every trainee and taught them diligently.

That made me raise my hand

to ask you for a match.

As I said, I never taught you.

You've got an exceptional talent.

Although I won the game,

I had learned all your tactics.

I couldn't have succeeded without you.

It was your inspiration that brought me here.

All these years,

I've always wanted to tell you that.

Thank you, Captain.

Yu Wenzhou.

Passing Blue Rain and Swoksaar to you...

was the right decision.

Mr. Wei.

Captain.

In order to prevent you from disappearing again,

I bought all kinds of Coke for you.

See? Ginger flavor, vanilla flavor, the best-selling blue one,

and the pink cherry flavor you like best.

But promise me to never run away again.

This time,

I won't.

Mr. Wei's tactics are still unorthodox.

But

I like them.

Really?

So do I.

Leaving Blue Rain and quitting Glory.

Do you think

it was a bad decision back then?

Why do you like to talk such nonsense?

The defeat still haunts you, doesn't it?

Losing to that guy with slow hands

was really one of the main reasons why I retired.

It wasn't the sole reason.

I just don't want to admit it.

I planned to play Glory for two or three more years.

But it was impossible.

My time has passed.

If you're willing,

anything is possible.

Do you think

I'm still as good as I used to be?

It's true that tactics and people would be obsolete.

But all the tactics created by the successors

are based on the efforts of their predecessors.

Being obsolete can be a disadvantage.

But it can also be transformed into an advantage.

Yu Wenzhou understood it back then.

Don't you understand it now?

So you really lost to him.

These kids can easily surpass me.

So can the kids under you.

I thought they would ignore the old tactics.

But it turned out

the game made me excited when I was playing.

So do you want to join Happy?

TEAM HAPPY

TEAM HAPPY

YE XIU, TANG ROU, QIAO YIFAN, BAO ZI, LUO JI, AN WENYI

WEI CHEN

We have qualified.

Really?

Excellent Era is the first and we are the last.

It's humiliating.

So you have to practice diligently.

Our ranking isn't great.

But we've qualified.

That means the first and the last are on the same starting line.

Okay, that's all for today.

TEAM EXCELLENT ERA

Thank you.

Captain Xiao.

Our team won the first in the Trainer Match.

-We should celebrate, right? -Yes.

Let's go to Eagle's Nest.

-Okay. -Good.

Although we can't drink,

we can enjoy the food.

Happy has qualified too.

This is expected.

We'll meet them some day.

That's not necessarily true.

Go ahead and celebrate. I've got something to do.

GLORY NEWS

20 teams qualified for the Challengers League have emerged.

But a private arrangement has been made

between Excellent Era, rated No.1, and Happy, rated No.20.

They're going to have an extra game.

The result will affect Happy's advancing in the league.

Although it conforms to the rules,

this game control strategy is a trickery.

I didn't know until today

that Happy succeeded in qualifying with this tactic.

Why are you making a comeback

in such an embarrassing way?

Captain Sun.

It's more meaningful to study your opponent's tactics

than to mock them.

Besides,

I'm here today just as a friend,

don't treat me like the league's Chairman, okay?

A stolen win.

-How shameful. -Is Excellent Era scared

that I'm coming back?

Captain Ye, what's your point?

You don't know us.

We haven't had a battle yet.

So let's have one.

The problem of strength should be solved by strength.

I'm afraid

you won't win against anyone in my team without cheating.

Captain Ye, do you dare to fight?

If Happy fails,

your team will voluntarily withdraw from Challengers League.

I'd also like to know

if you've got the strength to qualify for Challengers League.

Sooner or later,

we'll inevitably fight against Excellent Era.

This fight is an excellent opportunity to practice.

We're going to fight with the real pro team.

Only through this way, we can expose all our problems and shortcomings.

We must take this fight.

Mr. Tao.

Do you have any idea

why Sun Xiang proposed strongly to battle with Happy?

Since his transfer to Excellent Era,

Sun Xiang has in fact been thinking of beating Ye Qiu.

Captain Ye Qiu left Excellent Era

and Sun Xiang, the best rookie, became the new leader.

It's a big pressure for him.

Now Excellent Era has been demoted into the Challengers League.

Sun Xiang is surely stressed out.

He's fighting with Ye Qiu.

He's anxious to prove that he is as good as Ye Qiu.

His stubbornness will appear subconsciously

after existing for a long time.

This would be a fatal problem

in the Challengers League.

Not only Sun Xiang,

but everyone in Excellent Era thinks so.

Although Ye Qiu has retired from Excellent Era,

the imprint he left is too deep.

We've been fighting against his shadow.

This is bound to affect our own pace.

So in your opinion,

what should Excellent Era do now?

Defeating Ye Qiu is just a small step on our way to the championship.

We can strategically despise our opponent.

But tactically, we can't underestimate them.

But if Happy wins...

Then it would be a driving force for Sun Xiang.

Sooner or later, we'll fight against Excellent Era.

The extra game is our best chance to study our opponent.

Luo Ji, it's your turn.

Although we only need to kill one player

in the battle against Excellent Era,

we'll be under much pressure than usual because of him.

Xiao Shiqin.

Like our captain, he's one of the Four Best Tacticians.

There are a few flaws in his awareness and execution.

He has always been the leader in the previous team matches.

Excellent Era neglected tactics before Xiao Shiqin's arrival.

So they always lose in team matches.

But everything has changed since he joined Excellent Era.

He is now claimed to be the central core in Team Excellent Era.

How do we defeat them?

XIAO SHIQIN

Cut the central core off and then smash it.

Who will do it?

The Mechanic class has the weakness

of being slow and having less HP.

We need a character who can deal with high damage instantly

and launch a surprise attack to kill him in one blow.

It's better if he is very familiar with the terrain,

so he can hide if necessary.

That would be perfect.

I've got a candidate.

YOU'VE OBTAINED A BATTLE AXE

Take it easy.

I'm not here to fight.

Do you know Team Happy?

You should know what is eSports competition.

Do you need a bossy captain?

He's stubborn as a mule.

That's a problem.

I heard you got a girlfriend.

-Yes. -How do you feel?

It's hard to describe.

There's nothing hard about it.

Are you messing with me?

Such a useless boy!

-Is he really Deception? -Hurry up!

His real name is Mo Fan, the cashier of this cafe.

My information has always been accurate.

Don't you think he is too old?

Playing Glory in his age means he loves the game.

-But... -Are you blind?

-He's too fat. -Can't you see me?

He can play so well as a Ninja. That means he's very agile.

Now!

Such an asshole!

-He's too fierce. -"Fierce"?

A Ninja has to be fierce.

If he's not fierce, how could he break into enemy's camps?

Boss, what shall we do now?

He's a fierce and cool guy,

so we can't confront him.

We should influence him.

Do it now.

What now?

-It's your duty, Bossy Captain. -It's your duty, Bossy Captain.

Hi, I'm Lord Grim.

Mr. Lord, what can I do for you?

Three cups of...

Flat White.

AMERICANO. THREE CUPS, 72 YUAN.

I want Flat White, not Americano.

It doesn't matter here. Take it easy.

Three Flat Whites.

-Buddy, are you-- -Boss!

Sir,

what are you doing here?

Just passing by.

Wait.

Let me see.

They are Flat Whites.

But on the bill, it's the price of Americanos.

What the hell is this?

You!

What the hell is this?

What's your name?

Sir, come here.

Sir.

Take a seat.

Sir.

He's a rookie who knows nothing.

It's all my fault.

Mr. Liu, you're too kind.

-Here you are. -How could you manage the cafe like this?

Last time, it was me who found out

that some employees exchanged our goods in the kitchen.

Listen.

Every rookie has to be scrutinized.

Come here.

Now!

Apologize to our boss.

Cut your crap!

Is this a problem you can fix with an apology?

You, bring me all the bills here.

Let me check them.

Sir,

raise your foot.

Glory card.

I see.

You've been embezzling the money in our cafe

to buy equipment in Glory.

I shouldn't have trusted you!

How dare you snatch the card?

Don't you want the job?

Shit. He's gone away. He is the real Mo Fan.

Let him go. He is a mute kid.

He might not even be able to tell his coordinates clearly

during the team challenge.

Forget him.

No, we need him.

But

a special guy has to be recruited in a special way.

I'm coming.

Don't worry. I've got everything.

WANGHE PAVILION

DECEPTION IS ONLINE

For a guy like him to talk,

you must start with something he knows well.

If Glory is the only thing he cares about,

we'll have a chance to recruit him.

What do you think about joining Happy?

Join us?

DECEPTION IS ONLINE

No way to escape.

Do you want to die again?

Your tactic has forced him to kill himself.

Even as a veteran opportunist, I can't bear to look at this.

If a tactic works, it doesn't matter whether it's dirty or not.

If Glory carries a special meaning for him,

I have to destroy that special element.

However,

he'll lose his levels this way.

Even if we recruit him, he won't be able to compete.

Fair enough.

Think about it.

Join us.

In your dream.

He'll never escape the well.

What a torment! But I like it.

He wants to kill himself.

Sometimes, it's also not easy to die.

How does being trapped inside the well feel?

You're crazy. What do you want from me?

From now on,

this well is the only area you can move freely in Glory.

It's the address of our team.

If you want to join us or seek revenge, we welcome you.

Of course, I personally hope that you'll join us

because I don't like to fight a rookie.

Right?

"Happy Internet Cafe."

Look, he went offline.

We'll wait then.

He'll be back.

Bao Zi, it's your turn.

We meet again.

Rain or shine, I'll always be waiting for you.

Okay.

TEAM HAPPY

I'll take back my glory.

In other companies,

I heard something called team building

which is very useful.

Lord Grim.

Welcome to Happy.

Recreation area.

You can relax here after training.

Massage chairs.

I like them.

This is where everyone practices.

This is our power supply.

Never touch it when you're training.

Otherwise, all the computers will turn off.

-Do you understand? -Yes.

Everyone's account cards are kept here.

Yours will be here too.

Who was so careless to put my Lord Grim account here?

If I lose it, I'll lose my most precious Myriad Manifestation Umbrella in Glory.

I'm done.

Take a look around.

Okay.
