Pregnant After Healing the Alpha-Chapter 609 - 598: Is Qiao Jing Bound to Lose?
Chapter 609: Chapter 598: Is Qiao Jing Bound to Lose?
Qiao Jing responded with a faint "hmm" and took the cellphone from the boy, settling down on the couch in the hall.
"If I win this round for you, that’s enough, right? A duel would be too time-consuming."
After saying this, she began to review the hero’s Skills introduction.
The boy, seeing Qiao Jing studying the Skills introduction, disdainfully scoffed.
"You haven’t played this hero before? Even if you look up the Skills, it’s useless, you don’t know the Combos or anything."
Qiao Jing couldn’t be bothered with the boy, carefully read through the Skills introduction, then headed to the Top Lane where a fresh group of minions had just reached the highlands; she experimented, trying out a Combo sequence.
The boy paused, blankly blinking his eyes.
Watching Qiao Jing’s indifferent demeanor, he inexplicably felt that she seemed utterly unphased, not taking the disadvantageous situation seriously at all.
Yet this round was definitely lost, as his team had only him with a positive record, and their economic disadvantage was substantial, his own economy only slightly better than three of the enemy team players.
In such a situation, he thought only someone like Lin Yun, the renowned champion, could turn the game around, not this delivery woman in front of him.
Moreover, this woman hadn’t even played his hero before, how could she possibly win?
Thinking this, the boy nodded his head, patting his chest.
"If you win this round, not only will I admit you’re skilled and apologize, I’ll also perform a headstand hair wash for everyone to see!"
Just then, a group of young men in uniformed team jerseys bustled in through the door, having just returned they overheard this and couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
"Old Wang next door, who are you making a bet with? Even going as far as a headstand hair wash, that’s intense, huh?"
Qiao Jing lifted her gaze to the group, noticing that they were dressed the same way as the boy beside her, presumably all youth trainees.
She shifted her gaze back to the screen, beginning to control the game character.
The boy next to Qiao Jing, upon hearing his nickname being used, furiously glared with his eyes wide open.
"Damn it, Xiao Lizi, you shut up, will you? I’m making a bet with a delivery person here. She’s been criticizing, saying this and that doesn’t work, acting all knowledgeable. After I retorted a few words, guess what she said?"
The one called Xiao Lizi stroked his chin pensively, then finally snapped his fingers.
"She said you’re lousy, right?"
’Old Wang next door’ suddenly felt provoked by this comment, his eyes widening in shock.
"How did you know?! Nevermind that, I challenged her to a solo and she wouldn’t accept. She said she’d help me win this round I’m currently playing, and that would settle it. This round I am playing is doomed to lose; to avoid damaging my reputation, saying I’m bullying a woman, I still suggested a duel, but she insisted on helping me finish this round, so I just let her."
Xiao Lizi and the other few men, now curious, began to approach the couch, catching sight of Qiao Jing intensely focused on the game, all astonished by her appearance.
"Old Wang next door, you say she’s a delivery person? A courier?"
Old Wang smacked his lips.
"Yeah, that’s right, the milk tea I ordered was delivered by her."
Hearing "Old Wang’s" words, the crowd started buzzing with discussions.
"No way, there’s such an attractive courier?"
"Old Wang, you’re being too petty. So what if she criticised you a bit? Challenging her to a solo, isn’t that clearly bullying?"
"You guys stop it. I also think this round is doomed to lose, with such a big economic gap, incomplete equipment, and unable to deal enough damage. How could it possibly be won?"
"..."
Old Wang rolled his eyes and stood next to Qiao Jing, watching her gameplay.
"I told you we were surely going to lose this game. The random teammates we got matched with are all useless, yet she wouldn’t listen and insisted on proving she could help me win the game. So I said I’d wash my hair standing on my head."
As soon as he finished speaking, they saw Qiao Jing quickly switching her equipment so fast that almost none of them caught a clear glimpse of it.
Old Wang rubbed his eyes, watching Qiao Jing in disbelief.
"Damn, did anyone see that? Did she just change her whole set of equipment?"
Xiao Lizi nodded solemnly and replied,
"Yes, even faster than we could change our equipment, and she sold the ones you bought earlier and bought a new set."
Upon hearing this, Old Wang said, unconvinced,
"So what if her hands are fast? It only matters if you can win the game. Besides, after selling the equipment, she lost a bunch of Gold Coins. She’d have to start saving up again. Now that the enemy has cleared our jungle, I wonder where she’s going to get Gold Coins to buy new equipment."
No sooner had he finished speaking than everyone saw Qiao Jing’s character turn into a shark, swiftly weaving through the river and gobbling up the minion waves on the top, middle, and bottom lanes. Her other teammates hid at home, too scared to come out, worried about feeding. Thus, Qiao Jing alone harvested all the economy, and her Gold Coins significantly increased.
But the opponents weren’t fools, either. During this period, they chased Qiao Jing several times, but each time, Qiao Jing narrowly escaped with low health.
Upon seeing Qiao Jing’s movements, Old Wang’s mouth dropped open in shock.
"Did she just dodge more than half of the opponent’s damage?"
The other youth trainees were also stunned. The hand speed and extreme positioning they just witnessed were beyond what half of the people present could achieve, yet this woman pulled it off.
Could it be that all their long periods of practice didn’t measure up to a delivery runner??
Xiao Lizi frowned deeply, staring nonstop at Qiao Jing’s controlling hands.
"Let’s keep watching for now. Winning is what really matters."
Upon hearing this, the other youth trainees regained some confidence and continued observing.
Qiao Jing, unbothered by the young men around her, went back to base after clearing the minion waves and bought several new pieces of equipment with the Gold Coins she just earned. She sent a message asking the support to follow her.
She then positioned her character in the bushes near the blue buff, with the support hunkering down alongside her.
Qiao Jing intentionally gave up the red zone, letting the enemy take the red buff, and bought herself some time.
She mentally calculated the respawn time of the blue buff, and at the first moment of its refresh, she connected it with a nearby lizard, stacking her passive to the max.
With the help of the support, Qiao Jing quickly cleared the creatures in the blue zone and then headed to the top lane, conveniently clearing the minion wave there too.
When the enemy team grandly arrived at the blue zone, they found it empty and were stunned.
At that moment, they noticed on the mini-map in their own red zone the avatar of the character Qiao Jing was playing.
They were too engrossed in clearing the opposing jungle to remember their own!
As the enemy quickly returned, Qiao Jing only managed to grab the red buff before retreating. Yet, she didn’t go far. After giving the enemies false visibility of her departure, she and the support hid in the bushes next to the red buff.
The other youth trainees were taken aback by this maneuver.
"Is she planning a counterattack?"
"But she’s only with one support, how could they possibly beat five enemies?"
"Even if the other teammates from home rush over now, it’s totally too late, right?"
"Now they’re going to feed the enemy two kills again, how could they possibly win?"
While they expressed their doubts, the enemy had already returned to their red zone. At that moment, Qiao Jing, controlling her character, transformed into a fierce shark and charged violently at the enemies!
