Chapter 987: See if you have this courage

Owen was trembled by Guo Yu's question, subconsciously clenching his fists.

Of course he wasn't reconciled, wasn't convinced!

But what was the use?

The tightly clenched fist loosened, and Owen lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "The result was decided by the coaching staff. I'm just an ordinary team member; what can I do?"

Guo Yu sat on the opposite side, a meaningful smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, not saying a word, just staring at him with those deep, cold-pool-like eyes, his gaze hiding a bit of calculation, a bit of inducement.

Owen felt completely uncomfortable under his gaze. He lifted his eyes, narrowed them, and a faint glimmer of hope suddenly sprang up in his heart. He tentatively asked, "Do... do you have a way?"

"There are always more ways than difficulties." Guo Yu spoke slowly, his voice not high, but carrying an inexplicable certainty, his tone full of intriguing meaning, "But whether it can be done depends on whether you have the guts."

Owen's expression became a few points more solemn, his brows tightly locked, the doubt in his heart becoming even greater. He leaned forward and asked urgently: "What exactly do you want me to do?"

Seeing him take the bait, Guo Yu didn't keep him in suspense anymore. He slowly raised his hand and took out a small, exquisite object from his pocket—no bigger than the nail of a little finger, pitch black, with a faint metallic luster, like a mini memory card. His fingertips flicked, and the little thing "clattered" onto the table in front of Owen.

Owen's eyes were full of curiosity. He reached out and picked it up cautiously, examining it repeatedly at his fingertips, his fingertips rubbing the cold surface, and asked hesitantly: "What is this?"

"It's a good thing that can completely end Shen Xing's e-sports career." Guo Yu's voice was lower, his tone carrying a trace of imperceptible viciousness.

Owen trembled all over, the little thing in his hand almost slipped. His eyes were full of shock, but he couldn't help but hesitate. He raised his eyes to look at Guo Yu, his voice even trembling: "You... are you serious? Just this little thing can have such a big use?"

Guo Yu became serious again and explained softly: "Just like you said, you can't change the things decided by the coaching staff, and my hands can't reach that far for the time being."

"And if it's just a simple lesson for him, I think it's hard to resolve the resentment in your heart, and I wouldn't feel happy myself."

"So I think the simplest and most direct way with the most effect is to shatter his e-sports path in one blow, making him as universally expected now as he will be universally shouted at later!"

Speaking of this, he paused, his gaze locked tightly on Owen, and asked: "You are also an e-sports player; you should know better than me what kind of thing can directly end a person's professional path?"

Guo Yu's words carried a very strong guiding nature, and Owen subconsciously fell into deep thought. But he wasn't considered clever, and his heart was in chaos, full of unwillingness, doubt, and anxiety. He thought for a long time, but his mind was still blank.

"I... I don't understand what you mean."

Guo Yu wasn't angry, just smiled, and then answered for Owen: "Of course it's using invisible means on the competition field."

"You mean cheats?!" Owen realized belatedly, his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at the little thing at his fingertips in disbelief, his voice suddenly raised a few points, "This... is this a cheat?"

Guo Yu raised his eyebrows, his tone flat: "Yes, but not the kind of cheat you see often."

Without waiting for Owen to ask, he continued to explain: "That kind of cheat that needs to be downloaded and imported into the game client has no possibility of operation on the e-sports field with full monitoring."

"Then... what exactly is this thing?" Owen's heartbeat became faster and faster, and the anxiety in his heart became more and more intense, but he couldn't help but be driven by curiosity to ask.

"It's a tool cheat." Guo Yu's brows were covered with a layer of heavy viciousness. He leaned closer and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "It's a chip used to be inserted into the keyboard."

Owen's eyes widened even further, his pupils contracting slightly, his face full of shock—he had never thought that there was such a hidden cheating tool.

Guo Yu looked at his shocked appearance, a cold smile hooked on the corner of his mouth, and continued: "Large-scale e-sports competitions, players all use the mice and keyboards they carry themselves. You just need to find an opportunity to install this small chip into Shen Xing's keyboard. As long as he uses that keyboard during the competition, you can directly report him to the competition organizing committee for using tools to cheat."

"The function of this chip is to automatically adjust the sensitivity of skill release, and it can also achieve multiple intelligent operations such as rapid infinite combos and automatic aiming. You also know that on the e-sports field, as long as it touches the word 'intelligent,' it is a proper violation of cheating. Lightly, the competition results will be canceled; heavily—permanently banned!"

Hearing the words "permanently banned," Owen's heart "thumped" with fear.

"How to install this chip, I will teach you. As for whether you dare to do it, it depends on whether you have this courage."

Guo Yu finished speaking and picked up the water cup to take a sip.

Owen, however, was even more troubled in his heart, because he had never done such a thing. He hadn't even thought that even if he was punched so heavily, he would at most think of revenge later and give Shen Xing two more punches to vent his hatred.

But such a vicious and thorough means would not be born in Owen's cognition at all.

But once the seeds of evil are planted by others, they will always slowly take root and sprout.

"What exactly has Shen Xing done to you? To make you hate him so much?" Owen suppressed his chaotic heartbeat and looked at Guo Yu to ask.

Guo Yu snorted coldly, the disgust in his eyes undisguised, and the words he said were even more biased: "Hating someone doesn't need a reason. In my eyes, everything he does is wrong. The more glorious he is, the more I want to destroy him."

"But don't worry, I won't let you take the risk in vain." Guo Yu changed the subject and changed his tone: "As long as you are willing to do this, no matter if it succeeds or not, I won't treat you badly."

Owen's eyes dodged instantly, his Adam's apple rolled uncontrollably, and the struggle in his heart became more intense. He clenched the chip in his hand and stammered: "I, I need to think about it... I need time to think about it."

Guo Yu nodded lightly, not appearing urgent, but didn't forget to remind him: "There are less than two weeks until the 'soloking challenge,' which should be enough for you to consider."

"But you should know clearly in your heart that since Shen Xing can snatch your youth training quota now, if he is allowed to continue to perform, those opportunities that originally belonged to you might all become his in the end." ===== CHAPTER 988 =====
