Volume 6: War and Peace in the Black Forest Chapter 3 Return to Glory
How to say the story of Fat Baldy, there is nothing particularly shocking or difficult to accept. It is just a normal evolution of things. Although there is no big change, it is enough to make people ponder.
After all, the team was supported by Li Lin alone. It was a miracle that the supernova of that year could support the entire team. They won the championship in a period of transition, and under the siege of everyone, a group of young people with dreams worked hard. It was originally a normal story of struggle, but it fell apart and went their separate ways because of the problems of the times.
No one wants to see this happen, but the original sin of e-sports is being bad. Without Li Lin, they are nothing.
Or maybe they have a lot of passion and the potential to move forward, but there are no big trees to shelter them from the wind and rain. The captain who rose like a comet also disappeared like a comet, leaving countless people leaving that place with doubts and resentment.
"But it's also considered lucky. After all, it didn't take two years for the cyborgs to dominate the world. In the end, it was purely a world of electronic people. It all depends on who has the best machine configuration and the most computing circuits. What's the point? If thirty low-level soldiers can kill your five dragons with their operations, then even the best operators can't beat such micro-operations. After all, they are all professional level."
Now that the conversation was over, Fatty was no longer the cowardly guy. After all , he was just a young man of about the same age as Li Lin. Although he looked like a good man, he was actually less than 30 years old.
In this era when life expectancy is rising at a visible rate, they are still the tail end of the young people.
"E-sports has replaced the running points of the past, and people are starting to show off their skills. Their respective AI logic, built-in circuits, and thinking patterns, after all, machines have replaced humans. Many are simply logical AIs covered in a layer of bionic skin. Apart from the basic response, the rest are battle calculation modules. With such a large number of people, how can they be professional players? They might as well go home and farm. So although we didn't last long, others were not much better . They are all gone."
"Remember our most stubborn enemy, Baye? Now he's transformed into a CPU promoter, and he doesn't feel ashamed to insert a bunch of logic chips to pretend to be a normal person when playing games. The others we are familiar with, that guy, De Ge, are now advertising spokespersons and have starred in several documentaries, making a lot of money. The others are not as good. They don't have such smart minds."
"Xiao Kang from our team went back to be a laundry shop owner. But now that electrical materials are so advanced, I guess he has lost everything. Theater, who played a supporting role, went back to make movies. His family specializes in making movies, and they found him a few small jobs. He is doing well now, and we can occasionally see him at some press conferences. I really don't know where Fox has gone. She has always been mysterious and only listens to you. She disappeared not long . And we are not relatives, so there is no point in calling the police. If it's relatives, we don't know where your relatives are, that's all."
Chewing the steak and pointing at his organs, Fatty gave a slightly dejected smile.
"At the beginning, it was all for the dream, for each other's faith, but now in the face of reality, it's all bullshit. I was fat and bald at the time, but I lived a bright and thorough life at that time. Now? I run to the gym every day to act like a young and rich CEO. Others think I am something else, but in fact I know that I am originally that fat and bald person."
"But so what? I've become like this now. My face is prosthetic. My arms are prosthetic. My legs and feet are prosthetic. I don't have any of my internal organs that were originally mine, but the captain is still the same."
"It's been ten years, but you haven't changed at all, Captain. You're still as evil as ever."
"Eat your food, you demon."
Li Lin knocked on the bowl to interrupt his friend's complaints. He continued to sip juice and look at the green belt outside.
Facing the bustling street that seemed like a different world, Li Lin turned around and looked at the handsome blond man who was eating steak.
He used to be a fat bald man with greasy hair and poor speech, but now he is a confident, young and wealthy CEO. Maybe appearance can really change a person. Although the fat bald man may still be in the same mood, he looks like a middle-aged man who is sentimental about the past.
At least Li Lin could feel the gazes of the young girls from all directions around him, as if they wanted to skin the fat bald man alive.
Maybe for these young girls, this kind of middle-aged man with a story is more popular?
Li Lin took a sip of juice, thought for a moment, and said to the somewhat sad Fatty:
"I just heard you complaining, so you don't play games recently?"
"I don't play anymore. I stopped playing a long time ago. Games, e-sports, competitions, they're just like that. I've graduated and I don't have any dreams anymore. I have to read all this crap information and learn some bullshit etiquette when I go back. This is how my life will be. Do you understand the pain I'm going to feel when I go back and inherit a fortune worth tens of billions?"
"I don't understand, I can't afford to understand, you're just a rich second-generation kid, what the hell do you know... But do you really not want to play? Your captain's skills have not fallen behind over the years, come to the latest Les Miserables, I'll take you to show off and fly."
"Captain, please don't cheat me. Do you think I don't know about the game that has cheated countless people? I can tell from your face that you are planning to cheat me again. I don't want to be a transport captain. If I raise a son with all my heart and urinate, he will kick me out when he grows up. You are simply not a human being. I am tired of doing odd jobs."
"Hey, you are so heartless when you say that. When did I, your captain, let you raise pigs? It was Xiaokang who let you raise pigs, right?"
"I'm the one who's supporting Xiaokang, but you're the one who's making things difficult for me. Captain, if you have a little conscience, you should treat me to this meal. You should at least be worthy of the blood and sweat I've shed over the years. Look at me now. Not to mention the blood and sweat, I feel like my organs have been removed for crying."
"Come on, with your character, who would believe the low-grade stuff you got? You, a rich second-generation, have the nerve to ask an old guy like me who just got out of prison for money? Hurry up and treat me, or I'll call Fox to deal with you... Oh, by the way, I did call Fox's number when I got out of prison, but it was no longer in service. It looks like she's really gone."
"Yeah, he's really gone..."
The two looked at each other and then sighed in unison.
