Chapter 28: A Record-Breaking 10 Points!
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the WPL 2023 National Werewolf Championship!"
"The top 24 teams advancing to the next round will be announced very soon!"
"Our Competition Committee is currently scoring all players, and the answers will be revealed in my hands shortly!"
Commentator Xiao Ming shouted into the microphone with a high-pitched, intense tone.
The atmosphere in the venue was stirred up by him, with waves of cheers rising and falling, making the entire stadium feel as though it were vibrating.
"Hand Over Thoughts must have advanced, right? I really want to see what kind of expression Furious from Gun Shoots Like a Dragon—that Player 3—has on his face right now!"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect Gun Shoots Like a Dragon's ace to be poisoned to death before he even got a chance to perform. Their coach must be coughing up blood from anger right now, right? It's like a scholar meeting a soldier—there's no reasoning with him."
"LMAO, I want to ask if their coach is sweating buckets right now."
The entire venue was deafened by the impact of Wang Changsheng's play as the Witch.
The people inside the game were also completely dazed.
Before the system pulled them out of the virtual space...
Player 10 Seer gave him a look filled with complex emotions.
Meanwhile, Player 5's face was devoid of color.
Their Wolf Team had really taken a fall this time.
Because even if they racked their brains, they could never have guessed that this guy who came up from the substitute roster would actually dare to make such a heaven-defying play!
*Screech—*
The gaming pods slowly opened.
Wang Changsheng and the other eleven players all opened their eyes.
The gaming pods were arranged in a circle.
So as soon as he got up, Wang Changsheng heard Player 8, Sister Da Bo beside him say in an extremely excited voice, "Little brother, you were actually the Witch?"
Wang Changsheng looked back at her. "I'm not 'little,' big sister."
Player 8 froze for a moment before bursting into laughter. Her voice was much more boisterous than that of an ordinary girl, and her laugh was unrestrained.
"How did you dare to use the poison instead of saving someone on the first day? Did you manage to read that Player 3 was the Wolf Gun?"
Player 8 laughed so hard she trembled. After calming down slightly, she continued to ask, "I remember you said on the podium that Player 3 didn't look like a Good Player Card? So you had already pinpointed him back then!"
Wang Changsheng glanced at Furious, who had sat up with a livid expression.
He shrugged. "I was dazed too; I just happened to guess right. But then again, who told him to act so affected after getting the Wolf Gun?"
"You're very interesting. Let's be friends. I'm Xia Bobo from the Lang Huahua Team. You can just call me Sister Bobo from now on." Xia Bobo's bright red lips curled slightly, appearing very interested in Wang Changsheng.
"Alright, Sister Bobo. My name is Changsheng, surname Wang. You can just call me Changsheng."
"Alright, Little~ Changsheng." Xia Bobo elongated a certain syllable.
Wang Changsheng's face darkened.
Player 6 also overheard the conversation between Wang Changsheng and Xia Bobo.
As a member of the Wolf Team, she had been beaten so badly she couldn't even fight back.
Waking up only to see the Good Guys laughing and playing together, she almost couldn't catch her breath.
She took a deep breath.
She calmed her emotions slightly.
In the end, Player 6 couldn't help but ask Wang Changsheng, "Um, Player 7, you weren't the Hunter, so why did you jump as the Hunter back then?"
Hearing Player 6's question, Player 5 also turned around.
Wang Changsheng raised an eyebrow at the question and then stood up from the gaming pod.
His words seemed directed at Player 6, but his gaze fell upon the sharp-faced, burly man at Player 3. "Oh, I was just baiting you. Since I had the Golden Water on me anyway, I could play however I wanted. Who would have thought you'd Self-Destruct immediately?"
"Did your Wolf Team really think I was the Hunter back then? Ah~ unfortunately, I wasn't."
Wang Changsheng's words sounded incredibly punchable.
Furious had a gloomy face.
It was so dark it looked like it could drip ink.
[Will all players please leave the battle room in an orderly fashion.]
The organizer's announcement rang out.
Wang Changsheng didn't bother with Player 3.
He walked straight out.
At this moment, the outside was in an uproar.
The Commentators had also received the player ratings for this match.
"Alright, everyone!"
"I now have the list of the top 24 teams from the WPL 2023 National Werewolf Championship Top 48 round, as well as the player ratings!"
"Regarding that play by the Witch just now, how many points do you think the judges will give him?"
"I'll reveal it to everyone right now!"
Xiao Ming flipped open the folder in his hand.
With just one look, he was suddenly shocked.
"My god! Ladies and gentlemen, I simply cannot believe my eyes! The judges actually gave Player 7 Witch such high recognition!"
Seeing him still being mysterious, the audience below immediately started clamoring.
"Exactly how many points is it?"
"Can you just say it already!"
"Stop keeping us in suspense!"
Commentator Xiao Ming's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed hard.
He shouted in a slightly trembling but exceptionally excited voice,
"10 points! A full 10 points!"
"This is the unanimous recognition of Player 7 Witch by all judges on the Competition Committee!"
Commentator Xiao Han also joined in the shout.
"A full 10 points? This is too incredible. You have to know that since the start of national professional Werewolf competitions, there has never been a match with such a high score!"
"This is truly a brilliant match that has made history! A record has been broken, and even the end of the game was so dramatic!"
"Yes, that's right. Even in the Supreme Tournament back then, the person known as the nation's number one, Shenming, only got 8 points, right? That was a match that was pushed to the extreme and only won on the sixth day!"
"Whew, is this Player 7 really just a small substitute? Because of him, three wolves died on the field instantly! This allowed the good faction to quickly secure victory in this match!"
"I wonder if the audience present is interested in hearing the post-match analysis from Player 7 Changsheng and the Wolf Team? If so, please follow our official account and wait for our bonus content to be released!"
As the Commentator's voice fell...
The audience members all started booing.
"Tsk, following the official account again. Can't you just do the analysis live?"
"There's no other way; the next match is starting soon. A live analysis would take too long. But man, that Changsheng from Hand Over Thoughts is too badass, isn't he? Even though the national competition hasn't been around for long, such a high score really gets one's blood pumping!"
"Yeah, back then the Shenming Team only got 8 points. How is this guy even more ridiculous than the people in Shenming? His name is also quite strange. Changsheng? It sounds even more impressive than Shenming."
"The key is that he's also so handsome! And so skilled. With him around, Hand Over Thoughts might actually have a chance to advance to the national top twelve and charge straight into the World Championship!"
"That's not for sure. Their team's ace was scouted away. Besides, maybe this was just good luck? Doesn't the team Player 3 is in have a grudge against them? What if this guy named Changsheng was just acting out of revenge and happened to get lucky?"
"Whatever, we'll know after seeing how the next match goes!"
