[Esports] Pheromones say we're a match made in heaven.

The director's camera panned to each team in turn, and whenever it swept over a well-known team, a wave of cheers would erupt in the arena.

When the camera cuts to Hawk, Chi Feifan's chair is suddenly kicked from behind.

"..."

Behind him was a large group of Hawk's fans. Since their position was relatively close to Hawk's group, Qin Yi's glance at the camera caused an instant burst of excited screams.

"Ahhh, Live is so cool!"

"Go Hawk! Hawk will win!"

"The live show is watching me! Those few seconds alone made my ticket worthwhile!"

Qin Yi and Chi Feifan's eyes met across the distance.

Chi Feifan was the first to look away.

Yu Xingchen excitedly chattered into her earphones, "I didn't expect Brother Chi to be here. I thought he had no interest in games or anything like that."

Wang Kang: "That's because you don't know Brother Chi yet. Last time he messaged me asking me to play a game with him, but I wasn't available at the time, so the captain played for me, right, Captain?"

Qin Yi turned his gaze back and adjusted the microphone: "Alright, focus on the game and stop worrying about things outside of it."

After showing each team on camera, the director switched the camera to the audience.

The World Cup qualifiers were broadcast live on multiple online platforms simultaneously. In the period before the matches started, in order to attract viewers and generate buzz, the directors would often focus the camera on some viewers holding up light sticks and making jokes.

Chi Feifan was accidentally recorded.

The number of comments in the live stream increased significantly.

[This young man is nice]

Brothers, I really love this!

[Which team does this handsome guy support? He doesn't seem to be holding any support signs.]

[Hawk Bar, look at all the Hawk fans around him]

【They actually support the same team as me? You have good taste, I like them even more now】

Wait a minute... why does he look so familiar? I think I've seen him at the Hawk entrance before.

I think I've seen this player before in Hawk's livestream...

As the topic veered further and further off track, some viewers in the live stream began trying to uncover Chi Feifan's personal information. Seeing that things were not going well, the director switched the camera to the commentary booth without warning.

Inside the commentary room, the commentator was leisurely shaking his leg and drinking water from his thermos. There was no notification from his headset. When he saw his face suddenly appear on the big screen, he was completely dumbfounded and almost spat out his water.

"Ahem! Well then, before the match starts, let's talk about the recent personal situations of the popular players." Commentator A forced a smile out of professionalism and started to bring up the topic with the equally bewildered commentator B next to him, relying solely on his excellent improvisation skills.

The live stream chat was filled with laughter, with "hahaha" flooding the screen.

The two chatted back and forth for a long time, finally dragging out the match until it started.

Commentator Jia breathed a sigh of relief: "Alright, welcome everyone to the Survivor World Championship Asian Qualifier. The first game is about to begin."

"The director very sensibly first gave the camera to Hawk. Hawk planned to jump to Pochinki in this game. It seems that they are still using the same old strategy to seize resources and widen the score gap in the early game."

(Please remember 1110.com for the fastest chapter updates)

Commentator Yi Moqi chimed in: "Actually, for big teams like them, they tend to play aggressively in the early game. Teams like Wonder, JDK, Shenye, and the Korean team TCG all prefer to drop into areas with abundant resources. After all, some jungle camps can't support a full squad, and it would be troublesome if someone nearby contested them."

Commentator A: "Hahaha, these are all from Taotie, but it seems another team also has their eyes on Pochinki this time."

The camera then cut to the Wolf team from Japan.

Commentator A: "Wolf is this year's dark horse. I remember this is their first time participating in the World Cup qualifiers. As a new team, they actually dared to compete with Hawk for resources. Should we say they are fearless like newborn calves or that they are formidable young talents?"

In the game, Yu Xingchen reported from high above: "Two teams have landed at the research institute, one at the mine, and there should be at least four teams at the military base. Captain, there's a full squad at our five o'clock position."

Qin Yi landed, rolled, and quickly picked up his gun: "Got it, hurry up and sweep the building."

Hawk and his men looted all the useful equipment from the surrounding buildings like bandits entering a village, and gunfire was heard continuously in many places within the game.

Qin Yi calmly reminded him, "There are footsteps downstairs."

"Da da da da!"

Wang Kang blocked the stairs, and a series of steady, rock-solid gunfights left his opponent completely dumbfounded.

"Take one down."

Qin Yi: "Don't fish, let's fish."

"receive."

However, after waiting for a while, seeing that the person was about to climb out of the door and his teammates hadn't arrived, Wang Kang cursed inwardly and had no choice but to finish him off.

Meanwhile, gunshots rang out in other parts of P City.

Qin Yi attached the scope he had found: "Xiao Yu, how many teams landed with us?"

Yu Xingchen gripped the mouse nervously: "Just... just one team, I'm sure."

Qin Yi glanced at the green box that Wang Kang had replaced, frowning as if lost in thought.

I don't know if it's just his imagination, but something feels off.

How dare a lone wolf charge into the building? This doesn't seem like someone coming to fight; it looks more like someone trying to attract attention.

The first safe zone is about to refresh. Unless Hawk gets incredibly lucky and the safe zone happens to be right above them, they'll have to drive and move.

"Find a car," Qin Yi said.

When the kill notification for Wang Kang popped up, Qin Yi glanced at it and saw that the player who was eliminated was a Wolf player. They had never played against Wolf before and didn't know much about the opponent's strength. Qin Yi didn't plan to get involved with Wolf here.

Old Jiang was in charge of driving in the team. He spotted a black jeep and was about to say that he was lucky today.

Until he ran to the jeep and said, "Captain, someone has punctured the tires."

*

Just now, two teams engaged in a fierce gunfight at the military base. Wonder wiped out the entire opposing team at the cost of one player. The commentator had just finished praising Fox's brilliant play when he turned around and saw...

"Strange, Wolf has already left P City. Usually, Hawk would have moved to another location by now, but this time something seems to have gone wrong... Director, please show us the replay to see what happened just now?" Commentator A said in surprise.

Commentator B: "Huh? Wolf actually blew out all the tires in Pochinki, greatly delaying Hawk's speed to enter the safe zone. What kind of tactic is this?"

In the lounge, Chen Yangyang jumped up, pumping his fist in frustration: "Fuck it! If you're so capable, come out and fight me with guns! Stop playing these disgusting games!"

Qi Song's expression was solemn. He had analyzed Wolf's playstyle with Qin Yi and the others before the match. Wolf's playstyle was always rather cautious and conservative. He didn't know what was wrong with him today, but he started causing trouble right from the start.

Just then, the safe zone refreshed, thankfully it wasn't the worst possible zone.

Chi Feifan looked up at the large screen above, the camera pointing directly at Qin Yi's cold and stern face.

Qin Yi is a completely different person when he leads the team in competitions compared to when he plays games with him.

Chi Feifan's gaze swept over the densely packed crowd inside the venue.

Under the spotlight, the contestants sat on the stage with countless cameras pointed at them, and even a small mistake or a micro-expression could be seen by everyone.

As the team captain, what Qin Yi wore seemed to be not just a team uniform with his name on it, but the entire Hawk.

Chi Feifan remained expressionless, but his heart was pounding faster than usual in his chest, and his hand unconsciously gripped the cigarette pack in his pocket.

Due to the lack of progress in the early stages, Qin Yi was forced to make a decision to change the team's previous aggressive playstyle and instead slow down the pace to play defensively and secure points.

He proved to be right. Hawk's skill level is undeniable. Even after being sabotaged before, he has maintained a relatively stable performance, securing kills in gunfights with other teams without suffering any casualties.

"Play it safe, even if you try to outmaneuver me early on, so what? I, Hawk, can still..." Commentator B paused, his eyes widening. "Hey—wait a minute, something's up! Watch this!"

Suddenly, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

Wolf had already secured a safe position within the safe zone, but upon hearing Hawk's gunshot, he unexpectedly moved out of the safe zone and circled behind Hawk.

Wang Kang, who was happily looting a bag, was suddenly taken down by the enemy sniper.
