Chapter 43 Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Chapter 43 Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Amidst the joyful laughter in the Tianlu training room, Nuke's fate was sealed.
Bai Dao's ruthless attack was like a heavy hammer blow, shattering Ye Xin's attempt to turn the tide against Mongolia, and completely crushing Tianlu's long-standing inner demons in the face of the Asian hegemon!
Morale is a team's most formidable weapon.
In the following rounds, all members of Tianlu were on high alert, and their defense was as solid as an iron barrel.
The Mongolian team's lifeline, the Ganla speed boost, was utterly crushed by Tianlu's crossfire and proactive anti-Qing tactics.
13: 9!
Lock the score!
Figure 1: Tianlu takes the first city!
After a short break between maps, the battle in the Desert City officially begins.
If Figure 1 still involves a back-and-forth tactical game...
The second picture is entirely a personal performance by the righteous path.
Continuing the explosive feel of Figure 1, the Desert Eagle, SMG, and rifle take turns performing.
The Mongolian team's morale was shattered, and their once-proud frontal firepower seemed like a joke in the face of the righteous path.
13: 5!
A crushing defeat!
Tianlu swept Mongolia's top team and Asia's top team 2-0, advancing to the winners' bracket final!
...
Danking's live stream.
Less than a minute after the match ended, unlike the usual practice of not releasing data for half a day, HLTV updated the match settlement data much earlier this time.
Danking opened the match and scrolled down to the statistics panel.
He immediately gasped.
【Tyr4nt】2图总击杀59,死亡21,adr135.
Rating as high as 1.88!
How did he manage to put up a supermodel stat line of 1.88 against the current number one ranked team in Asia?
"Is this the kind of achievement a 20-year-old newcomer should have?" Egg King thought to himself, speechless.
His initial expectation for the legitimate path was only 1.3...
The most ridiculous thing was when Dan clicked into HLTV's personal homepage on Baidao.
Since Bai Dao is a newcomer to Tianlu, HLTV is not yet very efficient, so his profile picture is not his official photo at this time.
There is only a classic black figure, standing alone with the bright red logo of Tianlu behind him.
It felt so good...
A 1.88 rating? Fighting the Mongols? If this drink wasn't cheated, I'll livestream myself eating shit while doing a handstand!
[To the person upstairs: I've already taken a screenshot. The person who ate the table last time has already kept their promise. Let's see how you perform next!]
[A shadowy war god without even a single photo, huh? A heavy blow in the online tournament, those who know, know!]
[This is so fake! The Americans have been using smoke grenades to pre-fire several times, and wherever they set up, people pop out. Isn't this cheating?]
Half of these accusations of cheating are pure pranks, and the other half are just trolls stirring up trouble.
However, if people questioned whether cheating was used in offline competitions, it would be even more so in online competitions.
Seeing the screen filled with spittle and insults, Dan couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to it.
In esports, being bad is the original sin, and being good is cheating; he saw through the logic of these bastards long ago.
He can't possibly manage so many people; he can't possibly send lawyer's letters to each and every one of them, can he?
He immediately selected a highly-rated comment, ready to stir things up and change the mood.
"Egg Master! Connect with Kun Ge quickly! We want to hear the future star's post-match remarks!"
Egg read it aloud, then waved his hand dismissively: "Can't lose weight, huh! Well, then I'll grant your wish! After all, I'm the one who spoils my fans!"
He immediately sent Baidao a WeChat message and then pulled Baidao into the TS voice server.
Microphone Activation
A robotic female voice sounded.
"Let's chat for a bit."
Egg's big mouth is just one.
"Come on," came Bai Dao's slightly amused voice through the earpiece.
"Want to say something? The future son, the CCS savior who crushed the Mongol cavalry's professional dream with two 2-0 victories, the current number one breakthrough player, the tyrant, Brother Kun."
Danking painstakingly came up with every nickname he could think of.
"What's there to say, senior! I'm getting further and further away from you!" Bai Dao joked.
Goodness, another classic long and difficult sentence.
It must have been tough on the egg.
To be able to say such a large vocabulary.
"You've gotten too cocky, haven't you?"
Dan didn't take the hidden meaning in Bai Dao's words to heart; he knew Bai Dao was just trying to create a good show effect.
A barrage of comments flashed across his screen, and his eyes lit up.
[Kun and Dan are truly a match made in heaven! I've solved the age-old question of which came first, Kun or Dan—it must have been Dan first! Dan is the predecessor!]
"Hey Kun, let me digress for a moment."
Egg suddenly chuckled and posed a classic philosophical question: "Do you know which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
For a moment, Bai Dao couldn't quite keep up with Dan's train of thought.
Why did the post-match interview suddenly jump to the age-old question?
Which came first, the chicken or the egg? This question is only slightly easier than the dilemma of who to save first if your mom and girlfriend fall into the water...
After thinking for half a second, Bai Dao was certain that Old Man Dan was up to no good again, but he still chose to ask, "What comes first?"
"Of course, the egg came first!"
Egg laughed as he spoke, "Because... I'm your senior! Hahahaha—"
Egg's raucous laughter suddenly stopped: "Thanks, Beer Kun, for the magic book!"
After a moment's hesitation, he said seriously:
"Hmm, I've thought about it carefully, and I think the chicken comes first. The chicken lays the egg; without the chicken, where would the egg come from?"
Watching Dan's masterful face-changing act, Bai Dao felt ashamed of his own inferiority.
CS skills have improved, but acting still needs some polishing with Egg...
"By the way, Egg, can you help me type up a dating profile?"
Bai Dao has not forgotten the future happiness of his beloved son.
"What? You're looking for a spouse? Are you out of your mind? You're only 20 years old, with a bright future ahead of you. How can you ruin your future for a little romance? Don't you know how Device was forced to retire from the top echelons of the competition...?"
The egg is unbelievable.
Then it dawned on me: wait a minute, even if he really wanted to find a wife, why would he come to his own live stream? He should go to the bot live stream.
He really started to consider Bai Dao as one of his own, even realistically taking into account the fact that he didn't have any female fans.
"No! No! No! It's not for arranging a marriage for me, it's for my roommate."
As he spoke, he sent Dan a photo that Chen Zihao had prepared for him, which he considered to be his most handsome photo.
Bai Dao never expected that his joking suggestion would garner such strong approval from Chen Zihao.
I paid a lot of money to Photoshop a photo.
He solemnly entrusted him with the task.
There was no other way; the authorities had to keep their promise.
However, he largely agreed with what the egg said, and the egg itself did just that.
Around December, following the original trajectory, Egg will likely collaborate with Valorant's godmother, Lychee, for some entertainment value.
The comments section was flooded with posts promoting the couple.
It was incredibly popular and enjoyed unparalleled popularity for a time.
But Dan is a very clear-headed person. He knows that there is no future for the two of them, and that it's just for the sake of generating traffic for the show.
The chat has featured many possible pairings for Dan Chao, including early pairings like Bao Bao Xiong, Li Zhi, Mi Ma with her invincible side profile, and even Wa's Japanese female streamer...
Of course, this is what the egg is thinking at this moment.
The egg eventually fell in love.
Moreover, my girlfriend is extremely beautiful.
……
Meanwhile, at the LVG training base.
The head coach and the starting five were sitting in the training room, watching the replay of Tianlu's 2-0 sweep of the Mongolian team on the big screen.
The room was somewhat quiet.
Jee scratched his head in frustration.
Emilia is removing keycaps.
Captain Xigua frowned, looking down as if he were writing something.
anxiety!
This is the emotion that fills the hearts of every LVG member.
In two or three days, the ESL Challengers s46 Asia-Pacific group stage will begin, and they will most likely face the top Mongolian team.
Now, I'll definitely be able to watch every single match in Mongolia.
As they watched, their hearts sank deeper and deeper.
Mongolia is still very strong!
Tianlu is even stronger now that the person in charge has changed!
That rookie called Tyrant is performing even better than he did in the practice matches!
Even more brutal!
You can't tell at all that he was nervous facing an audience from across time and space.
In the CCS environment, as a professional player, if one player performs poorly or makes a mistake, causing the team to lose a point...
Losing both parents is the least of your worries!
Even under these circumstances, they can still perform at a high level!
This is not how a newcomer should behave.
Even seasoned professional players like them, who have been playing for several years, can't be said to be so relaxed; they're still very aggressive and daring.
"This is a huge problem..."
Watermelon stopped writing and slammed his fingers twice on the ID Tyr4nt in his tactical notebook.
The Asian RMR at the Copenhagen Major only has two qualifying spots!
It's a foregone conclusion that the Mongolian team will take one spot.
The remaining spot was originally going to be contested between them, Tianlu, and Greyhound.
TyLoo is in poor form, and Greyhound is also struggling. If LvG can maintain their current form, they'll practically have secured the second ticket.
But now there's been a change in the situation!
"Look, Masisi is doing a live interview in Hamburg."
Jee inadvertently took out his phone and clicked into Masixi's live stream, where Masixi was conducting a post-match interview with TyLoo's Hamburger.
It's worth mentioning that, in addition to the rookies' exceptional marksmanship, TyLoo's overall team coordination and mid-game command were also remarkably skillful tonight!
Those bold changes of direction, dry runs, and scheduling—if you didn't know better, you'd think the old captain 259 had possessed the body of the temporary commander Hamburger.
The LVG members immediately perked up; they also wanted to hear what secrets TyLoo's completely revamped tactical system held.
