Rise

"We, this group of people, no longer belong to this new era."

The man's voice came leisurely from the other end of the phone. Accompanied by the cool night breeze of the magical city, it seemed to be floating unsteadily, and it carried an indescribable depth and solemnity:

"Similarly, this new era has no place for old guys like us."

"So the glorious glory of the previous generation also came to an end along with us in the previous generation."

"So in this new era, the task of creating new glory will fall on you."

Lin Feng listened extremely seriously and attentively, with a rare expression of solemnity on his face.

He knew the weight of Senior No. 3's words on the other end of the phone.

This is a handover of mission.

It should be a kind of inheritance of glory between the old generation and the new generation.

The man's voice on the other end of the phone was still ringing leisurely:

"If Fatty can maintain his current strength, he will almost become one of the Seven Kings."

"But not enough."

"Our national uniform is not enough if it cannot occupy more than half of the thrones of the so-called Seven Kings and Four Emperors."

After speaking such words in an understatement, with a tone that was almost shocking, the man paused and continued:

"What's more important is the position of the leader of the four emperors."

"World number one?"

"This title back then fell on your senior 'No. 1'."

"Since you are his favorite candidate, you should have this kind of consciousness."

Lin Feng pursed his lips after hearing this, and then nodded seriously and vigorously: "Senior, I understand."

As he spoke, a blazing flame of fighting began to burn and surge in his eyes:

"I lost to that person once, and I won't do it again!"

The man on the other end of the phone nodded slightly: "With your words,

Then I will wait and see, but what are you doing now, studying? I heard Fatty say before, what high school game are you playing? "

Lin Feng scratched his hair: "Oh... yes, Shanghai Sixteen Schools League."

"After that, when will you come back? If it's you, it shouldn't be a problem to go back to the professional circle and find a second-tier team to practice first, or directly find a second-tier team in the LPL. Once you're done, you can return to the LPL arena. ”

Listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, Lin Feng shook his head:

"No, senior, I want to do it all over again."

"Again?" The man on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment.

Lin Feng nodded and said in a serious tone: "Well, start from scratch, build a team from scratch, and then fight back step by step, and fight back step by step."

Indeed, this was Lin Feng's idea that he had determined long ago.

Of course, with his strength and talent, there will be no problem in returning to the professional arena now. Even as long as he slowly adapts to the rhythm of this season's version of the game and regains his form, he will be able to play in the LPL professional league. It is definitely more than enough for the battle.

But Lin Feng didn't want to do this.

Because he feels this is not enough.

Even if he were allowed to directly return to the professional circle and directly enter the world finals, he is definitely no match for the person who stands at the top of the Yonko.

He still needs to get stronger.

So what he needs now is to concentrate more on calmness and accumulation, and let himself be tempered bit by bit through every game and battle, regain his original state, and even further improve and make breakthroughs.

Because he knows that the person in the SSK team is also getting stronger now.

Then, he needs to use faster speed and work hard to catch up.

That's why he actively participates in high school competitions of e-sports clubs, because for him, every competition is an opportunity to hone himself.

He wants to fight one game at a time, step by step.

Until he could see the back of the man in front of him again.

Until he could defeat it and stand on the throne of the head of the Four Emperors instead.

The man on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and finally laughed easily again:

"You kid..."

"It seems that there has indeed been progress in the past few years."

"That guy finally saw the right person."

Four years ago, when he just learned that Lin Feng would choose to retire, the man still felt a little angry that he hated iron but not steel. However, someone who was his former teammate at that time just said lightly: "Let him go and settle down." That’s fine too”.

Now, once again thinking about what a guy who was on vacation in Hawaii said at that time, the man had to admit that those words were indeed correct.

Now, he felt a completely different temperament from the boy on the other end of the phone than he did four years ago.

The flamboyant spirit of the young genius is still there, but the self-confidence has become more restrained, like a sword that has been polished and polished away from its initial dazzling edge. But when the edge is gone, the sword exudes a calmness. The smell... only makes people feel more awe-inspiring and palpitating.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Feng stopped and remained silent for a while.

Then he raised his head and looked at the moonlit night sky with sparse stars. Many people, things and pictures flashed through his mind like a revolving door.

Then he took a deep breath and shouted vigorously to the star god in the night sky:

"effort!!!"

"struggle!!!--"

After shouting, he felt refreshed. He noticed that several passers-by around him were looking at him as if they were crazy. Lin Feng touched his nose without caring, smiled, and then walked in the direction of home in high spirits. go.

…

"Sister Xue, I'm back!"

Lin Feng started shouting as soon as he entered the house.

As soon as he finished speaking, an alluring aroma hit his nose. Lin Feng sniffed hard and his eyes widened:

"Oh it smells so good!"

Looking in the direction where the aroma came from, Lin Feng glanced at the restaurant table full of delicious dishes, and his eyes lit up:

“Oh oh so rich!!”

At this moment, Su Xue had already walked out of the kitchen, glanced at Lin Feng, and asked angrily:

"Why are you back so late?"

Lin Feng scratched his hair: "Oh...it's so late after the game."

Su Xue curiously asked: "How's it going? Did you win?"

Lin Feng laughed and made a triumphant gesture to Su Xue triumphantly: "Win all three games! We have advanced to the next round of knockout rounds!"

Su Xue raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this: "Not bad~"

Then she waved her hand enthusiastically: "But a small competition like yours among high school students is nothing. Today, our national server LPL team won the finals and we should be happy! Come on, come on, have a meal. Today you Sister, I made a special table just to celebrate this!"

After saying that, she paused, looked at Lin Feng, and added: "Oh, by the way, let's celebrate it for you."

"good!"

Lin Feng happily agreed.

To him, it didn't matter who the celebration was for. Anyway, he was happy enough as long as he had delicious meals to eat.

At the dinner table, Lin Feng held the rice bowl and ate various dishes with gusto, while Su Xue also talked to Lin Feng with great interest about how she watched the finals at home today:

"You were playing a game today, so you must have missed the live broadcast of the finals tonight, right?"

"Team KG is simply... simply awesome today!"

Speaking of the performance of the KG team today, Su Xue could hardly find a suitable adjective to describe it. After holding it in for a long time, she came up with two "simply", and then simply waved her hand:

"Anyway, the KG team performed super well! I relied on Yuanshen's top laner and top laner Riven's performance in the two games, which made my blood boil with excitement!"

As Su Xue said something, she seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly her eyes fell on Lin Feng again:

"Xiao Feng!"

Lin Feng continued to concentrate on eating without even raising his head, and then muttered a vague "um".

Su Xue was so angry that she stretched out her fair and slender hands over the dining table and forcefully pulled Lin Feng's head away from the rice bowl to face her, and then glared:

"Are you listening to me, kid?"

Lin Feng, whose head was smashed, had a mouth full of rice and a look of confusion on his face: "Ah? Sister Xue, what did you say?"

Su Xuese let go, then looked at Lin Feng with a hopeful look:

"I want to learn from Riven! Can you teach me?"

"Learn from Ruiwen?" Lin Feng tilted his head after hearing this.

Su Xue nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, yes, I think Yuanshen's Riwen is so handsome today! I want to learn too! But it turns out that the group of heartless Soul Freshwater friends in my live broadcast room are so cool." Everyone says I can’t learn it! Xiaofeng, you have to help me!”

Lin Feng made a thoughtful expression, glanced secretly at the plate of braised eggplant on the dining table, and said in a contemplative manner:

"Oh, that's how it is……"

Su Xue was nervous and looking forward to it: "How is it?"

While Su Xue wasn't paying attention, Lin Feng quickly took out a piece of braised eggplant with his chopsticks and accurately picked up a piece of braised eggplant. He quickly took it back and opened his mouth to eat it in one bite. Then he commented with satisfaction and vaguely:

"Oh, I think those water friends are right."

There was silence at the dinner table.

Su Xue looked at Lin Feng's coherent movements from beginning to end in front of her, and was in a daze for a long time before she came back to her senses.

Then, an angry voice suddenly sounded:

"Damn you brat! I'm teasing you, Sister Xue. You haven't had your skin itched for three days, right?!"

"Don't run!!!"

"Why don't you give me some color today? Look at my Su Xue's name written upside down!!!"

The branches and leaves outside the window rustled in fright, startling a few sparrows that fluttered their wings and flew up in panic.
