Rise

"You know who I am and why don't you open the door?" came the impatient urging of a man from outside the door.

When Tian Tian woke up from his dream, he responded in a panic and quickly opened the door. Then he saw the familiar figure that he respected and admired standing in front of him in a leisurely manner.

Looking at the senior in front of him, Tian Tian asked timidly:

"Senior... you, why are you here?"

"I heard that you were defeated in the finals and your mentality also collapsed. I was curious and came over to take a look." The man raised his eyebrows and explained casually. Then he looked at Tian Tian and raised the corners of his mouth. Ironic arc: "How happy is it to cry alone here?"

Tian Tian lowered his head in shame.

Looking at Tian Tian's appearance, the man felt a rare feeling of hating that iron cannot become steel:

"I have said before, what is the most important thing for a professional player?"

“Stress resistance!”

"Mindset!"

"You've had this problem since S1, and it's getting worse and worse now. How can you afford the title of the No. 1 top laner in the national server?"

Tian Tian was so ashamed that he couldn't hold his head up. He weakly defended: "But I don't want to be the number one top laner in the national server..."

The man glanced at Tian Tian:

"This is not a matter of whether you want to be in this position. Since you have been pushed to this position, you should show the performance and strength worthy of this honor——"

"Among the seven kings and four emperors, only one is represented in the national server. It is simply a shame. Have you never thought about competing for the professional e-sports circle in the national server?"

Tian Tian had a timid expression with no confidence: "I...I can't fight for it, I'm too weak."

The man shook his head: "No, it's just that your mentality is too bad. As I said before, in terms of strength alone, there is no problem for you to break into the Seven Kings, and even the Four Emperors are not without a chance."

Tian Tian was simply stunned when he heard this. After reacting, he shook his head desperately:

"No, no, no, no! It's impossible for me! Only Fengzi can definitely attack the Four Emperors if she is still here——"

Speaking of this, Tian Tian suddenly paused.

Then the expression on the chubby face suddenly became extremely gloomy:

"It's a pity that Fengzi is no longer here..."

"Senior, I miss him a little bit..."

There was a vibrato in his voice again.

Thinking of his former partners, Tian Tian couldn't help but want to cry.

He has been thinking about the S1 season that year. Although he was also nervous and scared due to the huge pressure of the finals, the four teammates at that time were full of motivation and would cheer each other up.

And there is Fengzi, who always has an optimistic smile on her face and happily accompanies her everywhere to eat and drink in restaurants to relieve stress. Then she pats her chest with a confident tone and tells herself that there is no need to panic when he comes on stage. With his protection, he will definitely be fine. question.

But now...the former teammates are no longer here, and neither is Fengzi...

Tian Tian couldn't help but his body began to tremble again because of sadness and fear, but at this moment, a man's casual voice sounded in front of him:

"Oh, Maple?"

"This time I'm actually here to help him deliver a message to you."

Tian Tian was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then quickly raised his head and looked at the man in front of him in disbelief with wide eyes:

"Senior, are you helping Fengzi pass the message!?"

"Feng, Feng, Fengzi, what did he say! Is he, he, he, he, okay now, where is he!?"

There was great excitement, nervousness and surprise in his tone.

"Otherwise, why do you think I would have the leisure to fly all the way from Spain to find you." The man replied lightly, looking at the eager Tian Tian, ​​the corner of his mouth suddenly curled up in amusement: "But I changed my mind. "

Tian Tian was stunned for a moment: "Change your idea?"

The man nodded nonchalantly: "Well, I don't plan to be a mouthpiece anymore."

"If he has anything to say, just let him tell you."

While speaking in this casual tone, the man took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed a series of numbers under Tian Tian's stupid eyes.

…

The first knockout round of this year's Shanghai Sixteen Schools League was held at an Internet cafe in Jing'an District, Shanghai.

Because there are too many participating teams in the first round of the knockout round, and each team still needs to play three games, so in order to speed up the progress of the knockout round, the organizer's E-sports Association Modu Branch directly booked the entire NetNiu network. coffee.

Rows of computers were placed side by side, facing each other, and two rows of ten computers formed a battle station.

In the lobby of the Internet Bull Internet Cafe, ten knockout matches can be held simultaneously.

At this moment, the time in China has reached 7:20, and the high school students of the 20 participating teams in the first round have already devoted themselves to the competition.

The other team players and students who have not yet played are gathered in small groups around each battle stage to watch the battle, chatting and discussing in low voices from time to time, or exchanging comments and opinions about the teams that are competing. .

Lin Feng was standing at a battle stage watching the match. Beside him were Ren Rou and Ouyang. Sitting in front of him were the five members of the Thirteen High E-Sports Club who were concentrating on the battle.

The first game has already started for a full fifteen minutes.

The expressions on the faces of Ouyang and Ren Rou next to them were gradually replaced by smiles of joy and excitement from the initial nervousness and worry.

Lin Feng also nodded subconsciously.

Because of this game, the starting five of the Thirteen High E-Sports Club played really well!

Their first opponent happened to be Shanghai No. 3 High School, the weakest among the three opponents in this knockout round, so Lin Feng did not choose to play by himself, but let the team's starting five players play.

So far, the Blue Army, where the five members of the 13th High E-Sports Club belong, have gained a quite obvious advantage——

The head count was 11 to 5.

Lead by a small dragon and two defense towers.

Especially Tang Bingyao's ADC cannon, whose current performance data has reached a very powerful 6/0/3.

It’s almost amazing!

For this match, it can basically be said that the blue side's Thirteen High E-Sports Club team can securely win.

This is definitely something to rejoice and celebrate.

Because although their opponent is the weakest team in the three games this time, they also reached the top 32 in the last league and even have the strength to enter the main draw——

However, when facing such a powerful opponent, the five members of the 13th High E-Sports Team achieved such an advantage in 15 minutes!

The last half month of hard training has indeed yielded remarkable results!

But Lin Feng's thoughts were not on this at this moment.

…

On the battle stage, the match between the Thirteen High E-Sports Club and the Three High Team continues to be intense.

While Lin Feng was watching the game, he was a little absent-minded. From time to time, he couldn't help but take out his mobile phone to check the time.

Over in London, England... It should be past one in the afternoon now. The first group match of today's finals should be the first match of Group B, but the second match immediately after is the KG team from Group A playing against the North American team. .

Lin Feng remembers this schedule information very clearly.

So he knew that Fatty was about to play.

But until now, he has not received a confirmation reply from his senior. He does not know whether his words have been successfully transmitted to Fatty, let alone whether Fatty can adjust his mentality now. Fight again.

Lin Feng was a little uneasy.

At this moment, his cell phone rang suddenly.

Lin Feng quickly picked up the phone and glanced at the screen on the phone. What he saw was a series of numbers displayed as foreign IPs.

His heart skipped a beat, and he vaguely guessed something. Then he quickly walked out of the crowd of spectators with his cell phone in hand. He quickly walked to a corner of the Internet cafe hall, then immediately pressed the answer button and put the cell phone to his ear. :

"Hello?"

Then a very relaxed and casual voice came from the other end of the receiver:

"Maple?"

"You should still remember me, right? I'm here in London at the finals. Fatty is next to me. If you have anything to say, just tell him directly."

Lin Feng had just recognized that the familiar voice on the other end of the phone was another senior whom he respected equally. Then before he had time to react, he heard another extremely familiar voice coming from the phone:

"Y-yes...is it Fuko?"

The voice was stammering, with the usual timid tone and extremely nervous but expectant tone of the voice owner.

Lin Feng's whole body froze.

There seemed to be countless images flashing back in my mind at once.

He felt his throat was slightly dry.

The voice on the other end of the phone became even more nervous: "Is it... is it Fengzi? Feng, Fengzi, please speak -"

There was almost a cry in her tone of voice.

Lin Feng took a deep breath, then another deep breath, and then slowly began to show a sincerely happy smile on his face:

"Hey, fat man, it's me!"

For a moment, the voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became quiet.

London, England, Wembley 6,000-capacity stadium, backstage bathroom.

Tian Tian, ​​who was holding the mobile phone, was stunned for a long time, and suddenly burst into tears:

"Fuko!!!"

"Fengzi, I miss you so much! Where are you? I feel so stressed by myself right now that I can hardly stand it anymore. Where are you! -"
