The King’s Avatar - Chapter 1733-end

1733 Side Story: The Expectations of the Mediocre (4)

After all, this wasn’t Samsara’s first day of mediocrity. This wasn’t the first time such a rally had been held either. The previous captain, the boss, and the manager had all talked about it. Even the current captain, Zhang Yiwei, wasn’t doing this for the first time. Today, such a meeting suddenly happened again… It was probably because their record this season was even worse than before.

No professional player liked such a terrible record. Their captain had repeatedly emphasized that they needed to change, but the real question for Team Samsara right now was: how?

Did they need determination? Diligence? Hard work? Miore determination? More diligence? More hard work?

There were many things that couldn’t be achieved by just having willpower! Compared to the other teams, Samsara clearly didn’t have the advantage in terms of player strength or character strength. The rookies in the new season often brought variables to a team. However this season, the teams that produced variables because of their rookies were Blue Rain, Tyranny, Void, and Misty Rain.

The strong teams became stronger because of the addition of rookies.

The team that was evenly matched with Samsara also shone because rookies had joined them.

Meanwhile, Samsara’s rookies weren’t bad, but compared to the names that were always mentioned this season, they seemed very ordinary. This was just like when they were compared to the famous names in the Alliance.

In the end, they were just a mediocre team. Change was easy to say, but everyone present knew in their hearts that they had reached the limit. It wasn’t that they were unwilling, but that they were not capable.

So this time…

Squeak…

The door to the meeting room was carefully pushed open. Their rookie Fang Minghua tiptoed in. However, Samsara’s meeting room wasn’t big. No matter how careful he was, he still managed to attract everyone’s attention.

I’m sorry I’m late…

Fang Minghua apologized to the senior teammates in the room.

Zhang Yiwei didn’t say anything. He just signaled him with his eyes to go and sit.

Fang Minghua quickly found an empty seat and sat down. Zhang Yiwei’s emotions were not interrupted and he continued to speak vehemently. However, Fang Minghua was distracted after listening for a while. His mind was filled with the battle scene of the Sharpshooter he had just met in the game. He couldn’t wait to share his discovery with his teammates, but he couldn’t interrupt the captain’s speech. He waited and waited until Zhang Yiwei finally finished speaking. He looked at everyone with bright eyes.

Does anyone have anything to say?

Reporting to the Captain!

Fang Minghua raised his hand.

Speak.

I found an expert in the game today. He’s very strong…

If you want to explain to everyone why you’re late, there’s no need.

Zhang Yiwei interrupted him.

No. I just wanted to say that I discovered this expert. Perhaps we can try to invite him to join our team,

said Fang Minghua.

Oh? Then tell me, what kind of expert is he?

Zhang Yiwei asked.

He’s a Sharpshooter. He single-handedly took on the new wild boss, Night Returner on the Sea,

said Fang Minghua immediately. He felt that this record was enough to move even professional players.

A Sharpshooter?

In the end, everyone’s first focus was on the expert’s class. After exchanging glances, they finally looked at Zhang Yiwei with evasive eyes. An awkward atmosphere filled the meeting room.

Zhang Yiwei’s expression was also a little unnatural. After Fang Minghua noticed the abnormality, he suddenly reacted. Wasn’t the Sharpshooter Zhang Yiwei’s character? Right now, he said that a Sharpshooter was very strong and could even be invited to join their team…

So far, no team in the Professional Alliance had two players with the same Class during a battle. The arrival of a player with the same Class usually meant… a replacement.

Captain, that’s not what I meant!

Fang Minghua reacted quickly.

Then what do you mean?

Zhang Yiwei asked.

I just think… he’s very strong. Uh, he can help us.

Fang Minghua carefully chose his words, but his true thoughts were simple.

I didn’t realize that his Class was the same as yours at all.

Really? Then let him try,

replied Zhang Yiwei indifferently before changing the topic.

Does anyone else have anything else to say?

In the first place, there was nothing much to say in this old-fashioned meeting. Now that there was such an interlude, everyone shut up.

Alright, the meeting is adjourned.

Zhang Yiwei turned around and was the first to leave. The other members all looked at Fang Minghua, who didn’t know what to do.

Alright, let’s go.

Then, everyone stood up. Those who walked past Fang Minghua only patted his shoulder gently. In the end, no one said anything to him.

Fang Minghua wasn’t a fool. Although the captain had asked him to call the expert to try, it was obviously a routine response from a captain. His unhappiness, even after his team had left, still lingered in the air.

Fang Minghua didn’t know what to do. Should he just forget about it? He thought to himself. However, when the image of Zhou Zekai’s battle appeared in his mind, his heart was filled with unwillingness.

He couldn’t let it go just like that. He… would find another opportunity. Fang Minghua made up his mind.

The most important thing right now was to keep in touch with Zhou Zekai. If he wanted to contact him, he had to do it through the game. However, Fang Minghua had just become an official professional player. His salary wasn’t high, and he was short of money. He didn’t have the ability to immediately equip himself with a computer. From today onwards, it wouldn’t be convenient for him to go to the training room to play online games. Running to the Internet cafe every day wasn’t a long-term solution either. After all, that place could be said to be a forbidden area for professional players. Fang Minghua took advantage of the fact that he was still a rookie and didn’t have much fame and still dared to enter. If it were the other members of Samsara, even though they weren’t star players, the probability of them not being recognized was basically zero.

He could only borrow money from someone.

As soon as he thought of this, the number that he had memorized immediately entered his mind.

Fang Minghua slapped himself in anger. That was the girl he liked. How could he think of her immediately when he wanted to borrow money?

Unexpectedly, his phone rang at this moment. By a curious coincidence, the caller ID was that string of numbers, as well as the name he had given her based on his preconceived ideas and holding a vote by himself,

Great Wife

.

Fang Minghua listened to his phone ring a few times in a daze before picking it up.

Hello.

What’s wrong with you today?

The other party’s tone sounded as if she was blaming him, but Fang Minghua felt that it was out of concern. It sounded strangely sweet.

Today… I’m a little busy,

said Fang Minghua.

What are you busy with?

The other party asked.

She was starting to check up on him! Fang Minghua’s heart continued to feel sweet, so sweet that he forgot to speak.

Say something,

said the other party.

Alright, I won’t pretend anymore. I’ll confess.

Fang Minghua took a deep breath.

I’m a professional player now.

This time, it was the other party’s turn to remain silent. Fang Minghua carefully confirmed that the call had not ended. Suddenly, a voice came from the receiver.

Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t pretend anymore?

The other party asked.

It’s true. I’m Team Samsara’s new healer this season, Fang Minghua, also known as the Cleric Laughing Song,

said Fang Minghua.

The other side fell silent again. Fang Minghua had imagined this scene countless times. The scene that would satisfy him the most was one where he did not need to introduce himself. When he stood in front of the other party, the other party would be surprised to recognize him and sigh with emotion. He would smile and not say anything. Furthermore, when he announced his name, the other party would be in disbelief and say,

You are actually Samsara’s Fang Minghua.

He had fantasized about all sorts of things, but when it actually happened, it was a bit worse than what he had imagined. His fame was far from being known by everyone. In the entire Samsara, only their captain, Zhang Yiwei, was relatively known.

I just did a search. Team Samsara really does have someone called Fang Minghua this season.

The other party’s voice finally sounded from the phone. She actually went online to search.

That’s me.

Fang Minghua didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

I believe you,

said the caller.

Why would I lie to you?

Fang Minghua asked.

You don’t think hiding this is cheating, do you?

The other party’s tone suddenly turned cold.

I was wrong.

Fang Minghua quickly gave in. After all, he called her

Great Wife

. The word

great

wasn’t for nothing.

So in the future… you always be like this and rarely come back to the game, right?

The other party suddenly asked in disappointment.

I won’t have as much time as before, but I will still have some time. It’s just that…

Fang Minghua hesitated.

What do you mean?

I need your help,

said Fang Minghua.

What help?

Lend me some money,

said Fang Minghua.

…

Hello? Hello? Are you there?

There was an unprecedentedly long silence. Fang Minghua shouted after confirming that the call had not been interrupted three times.

I need to re-examine your identity.

The voice finally came again, becoming rational and calm.

Come, ask me something that only we know.

Fang Minghua liked this examination.

A few minutes later… Fang Minghua passed with full marks.

How much do you need? I don’t have much money either.

I just want to get a computer, but I don’t have enough money. Is it convenient for you to help me gather a few thousand yuan?

Fang Minghua asked.

You’re in a professional team, but you don’t have a computer?

The other party began to doubt him again.

The team’s computers are for training. However, if I want to play online games, it’s not convenient for me to use the computer,

explained Fang Minghua.

However, you’re doing this to play online games.

That’s right.

I’ll help you.

The other party’s tone was firm and certain.

That’s great. I can’t thank you enough. I’m willing to devote my life to you!

Fang Minghua said the truth loudly.

Pfft, you have to,

replied the other party.

It won’t be long. I just happen to be short of money recently. I’ll pay you back after getting next month’s pay,

said Fang Minghua hurriedly.

There’s no need to be in such a hurry…

In less than two days, a brand new computer was placed in Fang Minghua’s room. What he didn’t expect was that because he had borrowed money, his relationship with his

Great Wife

seemed to have become much closer. From that day onwards, Fang Minghua’s evening break was dedicated to Glory. As he continued to play with his old friends, he constantly contacted his new friend Zhou Zekai.
