Chapter 120: Why Would the Invincible Die?

Of course, I didn't come just to deliberately make Liang Yan happy; in fact, Liang Yan wasn't really unhappy either.

When Liang Yan finished the interview and returned backstage, Ka Lao Si wanted to take everyone out to celebrate; the victory dinner was a retained item, and besides, since this was the playoffs, Ka Lao Si wanted to make it more elaborate, so he discussed other programs with the team. Everyone chatted loudly for a while, but none of the suggestions could win everyone's approval. Finally, Ka Lao Si asked the two mid laners on the team:

"After winning a match, how do they usually celebrate over in the LPL?"

Liang Yan said he didn't know.

Lao Zhang had played professionally before, although he hadn't entered the 'upper circle,' but he still knew a bit, so he said:

"Usually it's also just eating; after the meal they'd go sing or something."

"Singing? At a bar?"

"No, no, it's a commercial KTV with private rooms, and there are pretty girls to sing and drink with, also very lively. Actually, it's not only after winning a match that they go; some flamboyant teams go even after losing."

When everyone heard there were pretty girls, they immediately raised five limbs in approval.

Tang Anna, who didn't have a fifth limb, said:

"Then you guys go; I'll head back to the base after I finish eating."

In the end, she was still dragged over.

……

Inside the private room, ghosts wailed and wolves howled.

AP, Ka Lao Si, and Yudie were taking turns as the mic king. Zven, Mithy, and Biman weren't there for the drink. Liang Yan sat dazed in a corner, struggling to tolerate the strong perfume that lingered even though he had kept his distance, wondering why he had come to endure this.

Tang Anna somehow produced two earplugs and a mask, stuffing her ears and nose tightly.

The private room was spacious, with the sofa arranged in a semi-surround facing the big screen ahead, and a large glass coffee table in the middle.

Tang Anna had originally been sitting alone in the corner opposite Liang Yan, but after the two beauties beside Liang Yan were driven away, perhaps feeling it unprofessional to just sit there doing nothing, she went over and sat next to Tang Anna, trying to strike up a conversation.

That poisonous perfume hit her nostrils at once, the thick mask unable to block it. Tang Anna couldn't stay seated, she gave an embarrassed smile to the two beauties, noticed only the space beside Liang Yan was empty, so she stood up and sat down next to Liang Yan.

She took out the earplugs, produced a mask, and handed it over.

"Here."

"Thanks."

Liang Yan immediately took it and put it on.

That made it a bit more comfortable.

Tang Anna spoke up:

"Do you also find it boring?"

"What?"

Liang Yan didn't hear clearly; Ka Lao Si's line "takemetoyourheart" buzzed in his eardrums.

Tang Anna had no choice but to raise her voice and repeat the question.

Liang Yan then heard it, thought for a moment, shook his head, and said:

"Not really; I used to quite like singing."

"Then why don't you sing?"

Tang Anna pointed to the song request console.

In this era, most Western KTVs don't have the convenient mobile mini-program for song requests; you have to rely on the request console.

"There's nothing I want to sing."

Liang Yan shrugged and said:

Tang Anna made an acknowledging sound and started chatting casually with Liang Yan:

"What do you usually like to sing?"

"A lot."

"Then you're pretty good; I can't sing at all."

"Your voice sounds quite suited for singing."

"I can't tell the pitch; I'm a bit tone-deaf."

"It's not that bad."

"Really."

"Sing a couple lines for me to hear?"

Tang Anna gave Liang Yan a sideways glance.

Liang Yan smiled.

After Ka Lao Si finished a song, he turned around, looked, put down the mic, came over and sat beside the two, smiling, and asked:

"What are you two whispering about, looking so happy?"

Then he winked at Liang Yan,

"Anna is our scarce resource, kid, don't go stealing her away."

So the two rolled their eyes together.

Ka Lao Si was of course joking; more precisely, his remark actually had the intention of creating an ambiguous relationship between the two, because some things, if no one brings them up, nobody thinks that way, but once it's spoken aloud, those involved become aware and start to imagine things.

Ka Lao Si actually hoped the two would really hook up.

Because Anna is a genuine local European, if she really got together with Liang Yan, it wouldn't be impossible to keep Liang Yan here forever.

……

Meanwhile, at Fist Headquarters.

"If only I had known, if only I had known why not fix it?!"

A group of programmers who had already clocked out were called back to overtime because of a trending Twitter topic, standing before Tryndamere, one of the bosses at Fist, trembling.

"I've said it countless times! Important bugs must be fixed ASAP! Otherwise, if they appear in a match, they'll seriously damage our image!"

Look at this, you guys look at it yourself!

Tryndamere dragged the video timeline at 8x slow-motion speed, pointed at the big screen with one hand, and roared loudly:

Did it fly up? Tell me, is it flying up or not?!

Who wrote the skill text? Step forward!

An employee with a Mediterranean hairstyle lowered their head and walked out from the crowd.

Tryndamere's finger almost poked his nose.

Is it you, right? Come on, read out the skill text you wrote for 【Coiled Silk】!

When actively casting, Elise and her spider form will lift into the air, becoming untargetable within 2 seconds……

Okay, stop. Tell me——

Tryndamere pointed at all the employees standing in front of him,

Loudly tell me, what is untargetable state! You come, okay, invincible. You, invincible. You? Invincible state.

Invincible state! Right?!

Then you guys look at this, did he die? Did he die or not!!

Why does invincibility die?!!

Huh?

Bullshit!!!

Bullshit code!!!

You wrote it!!!

Code like bullshit!!!

Untargetable state yet took turret attack damage—this is a most basic interaction logic error! Rookie mistake!! Bullshit!!

Where are the heads of the programming, QA, and testing teams? Step forward!!

Tell me, which version did the bug come from?

Okay, who initially signed off on it?

Ryz... Ryze before that—who signed off on it!! You? You guys?

Dock pay for one week, any objections?

OK, no objections, right?

Tryndamere paused for a moment, paced back and forth, took a few breaths, the anger in his chest gradually subsided, and then he began to earnestly advise:

Brothers, family!

We are no longer a small workshop.

We are RiotGames!

It's League of Legends—the greatest MOBA game worldwide, the creator of the most popular and mature esports system!!

Countless people are watching our every move, our product is stared at by countless people, countless companies are waiting for us to make a mistake! If we have any flaw, they'll swarm on us like hyenas! Countless people hope we fall!!

We can't continue like this, understand?

Can we ship a half-finished product to customers?

Everyone, think about it carefully.

First fix the bugs, then dismiss the meeting.
