Brother Ale's Blessing

Look.

He even had to thank me after being kicked out.

Manager San Shao couldn't understand Chu Ran's eccentric thinking. He just felt that Chu Ran wouldn't even be able to find a job after leaving RNG.

As for why Chu Ran was so happy, Manager San Shao was completely baffled.

But this feeling did make him feel quite good.

Let's see who else dares to be a troublemaker in the future.

After leaving RNG, Chu Ran used his savings to rent a small studio apartment in Shanghai and bought a computer that was just good enough to play League of Legends.

He sent trial resumes to the inboxes of various clubs, but they all disappeared without a trace.

In this era, if you could reach the number one spot on the Korean server, you wouldn't have to worry about not finding a job.

Over the next few days, Chu Ran witnessed firsthand the scene of Factory Director being repeatedly dominated by Little Peanut, Lee Sin's 4396, and Olaf using his ultimate after stepping on Caitlyn's traps.

Of course, Chu Ran seized the opportunity to post several Weibo updates to gain a significant amount of "Red Temperature" value.

"The Red Temperature value seems sufficient."

"Deep Blue, add points!"

Chu Ran shouted inwardly. A panel, visible only to him, appeared before his eyes and began to scroll rapidly.

After a moment, it finally stopped, and several large characters appeared.

[Brother Ale's Blessing: When someone 'V's you 50 yuan, your abilities will be amplified by 10% for the duration of one game.]

"What the heck?"

Chu Ran rubbed his head, looking a bit stunned.

Daozhang Ale blessed him like this?

He was the only one who managed to leave RNG unscathed and even scrounge 50 yuan.

Oh, wait, there was also himself.

He had scrounged 150 yuan.

"But I live alone, who am I going to ask to V me 50 yuan?"

Thinking this, Chu Ran contacted the boss who had asked him to boost their account.

From Platinum V to Diamond I, it was 5000 yuan. He couldn't lose more than three games in a row, or the boss would cancel the order.

In this era, the professional environment was still in its early stages of explosive growth.

As long as you weren't a starting player boosting accounts, there were generally no major issues. Factory Director had even boosted accounts.

There were even professional players who went AFK to take showers and faced no consequences.

Chu Ran tapped his phone, found the boss's avatar, and typed: "Boss, it's Thursday today, can you V me 50 yuan for some KFC?"

He also attached a series of MVP screenshots.

This account was now Diamond II, and he was about to enter the promotion series for Diamond I.

As expected, when the boss saw these results, he was very generous.

50 yuan, given without hesitation.

Instantly, Chu Ran felt his mind become much clearer, a strange and mystical sensation.

He had become stronger!

"Is this my cheat? It seems quite useful. Then, before future matches, I'll just have my teammates V me 50 yuan crazily."

Although he hadn't decided on his next team yet, Chu Ran was already imagining himself dominating on the professional stage.

The image of his heroic and vibrant state suddenly appeared in his mind.

For example, this promotion match.

The advantage was on his side!

As soon as the game started, Chu Ran felt his mind was incredibly clear, and his thoughts were very sharp.

Even the casting animations of the enemy Irelia seemed to have slowed down; his dynamic vision had improved.

Shortly after, the first blood notification reached Chu Ran's ears.

"First blood!"

"Holy crap, I'm so good!"

At the same time, in a Douyu TV livestream titled 'The Happy Hour Has Begun,'

A plump man with a weathered face let out a cry of surprise as he looked at his darkened screen.

"Holy crap, this Fiora is insane! She's completely abnormal, feels like this Fiora is hacking?"

[Red Temperature Value +123]

"I bet this Fiora is either a god-tier booster or she's hacking. If it's neither of those, I'll eat my stream!"

Dong Zhu looked utterly shocked, staring at the barrage of comments in his stream calling him "noob, practice more" and "mouth harder than Kai Ge." He felt indignant.

"You guys don't believe me? I'll test it out for you. Besides, this kid's rank is only Diamond II. Diamond II matched into a Master game, do you understand the significance of that?"

After respawning, Dong Zhu controlled Irelia to TP back to lane.

To prove his words to his viewers, he seized an opportunity and used Q on a minion to dash.

Immediately after, he unleashed his E skill, Bladesurge.

Dong Zhu skillfully utilized Irelia's old mechanics, where stun and slow were determined by health.

However, the moment Irelia raised her blade.

Chu Ran's Fiora crouched down, a sharp blade appearing in front of him.

Riposte!

It directly blocked Dong Zhu's Irelia's skill and applied a slow.

Instantly, he controlled Fiora to push forward, auto-attacked the vital point on the bottom left, gained movement speed, and activated E to reset his auto-attack.

He landed another auto-attack.

Simultaneously, he repositioned towards Irelia.

Fiora's vital point refresh mechanic was simple.

If he hit the bottom vital point this time, the next one would definitely spawn on top, either top-left or top-right.

A fifty-fifty chance.

Chu Ran was very lucky. As soon as he moved to the top-left, the vital point spawned directly in front of him.

Dong Zhu's expression turned panicked. He used his Q skill, Lunge, targeting a minion for a dash, all while shouting.

"See! If this Fiora isn't a god-tier player or a script, I'll eat my stream!"

"Damn it! How did I run into this kind of scumbag?"

[Red Temperature +142]

Just as Irelia dashed forward, Chu Ran's Fiora's auto-attack was already in motion.

The effect of E2 hit Irelia, guaranteeing a critical strike.

A bright red critical damage number appeared on Irelia.

103!

He followed Irelia's movement with Blade Waltz, using the movement speed from hitting the second vital point to get below her, waiting for the third vital point to spawn.

"9999999, Kai Ge, save me!"

"Coming, coming! How dare you treat my Dong Ge like this, I will end his life!"

At the entrance of the upper river, Kai Ge, controlling Amumu, had just finished clearing the Red Buff and was rushing over at full speed.

"Lick him, little bro!"

"I'm licking!"

Kai Ge confidently unleashed a flash-enhanced Q, but Chu Ran dodged it with a slight sidestep, the projectile flying past him.

"What the hell? Dodging skills like that, this guy is using a script."

Seeing this, Kai Ge's eyes widened. Dong Zhu gritted his teeth and quickly flashed.

But Chu Ran reacted swiftly, flashing almost simultaneously.

With a swift motion, his blade struck Irelia's vital point once more.

The sound of the vital point breaking echoed through the stream, and the kill notification appeared.

"Lucky killed Douyu TV-Dong Zhu!"

Instantly, the viewers in the stream were dumbfounded.

And an Amumu without flash or dash, caught in the river alone, became Chu Ran's Fiora's plaything.

"It's fine, I won't die. He doesn't have enough damage. I'll just wall-camp and he can't hit my vital points. Don't worry, Dong Ge, I definitely won't give him double buffs."

Just as Kai Ge was full of confidence, Chu Ran's Fiora aggressively auto-attacked him.

Then, he Q'd a nearly dead melee minion. A flash of white light appeared on him as he leveled up to 4.

"Hahaha, this guy made a mistake. Fiora's Q automatically locks onto low-health enemies."

Seeing Chu Ran's Fiora's misplay, Kai Ge burst into laughter in Dong Zhu's stream.

But in the next second.

When Ignite appeared on his Amumu, Kai Ge's smile vanished.

Ignite's damage is 50 + 20 times the hero's level.

A level 4 Fiora's Ignite damage is 130.

His Amumu only had 105 health left. Even with the Red Buff's regeneration, within the 5-second duration of Ignite's burn, he was doomed!

"Lucky killed Douyu TV-Kai Ge!"

"Double kill!"
