The Crown on a Wheelchair [Esports]

?Silver Frost◇

but not in the same space

In the live broadcast, the circular stage in the center of the Nirvana Park Arena is closely surrounded by auditoriums in eight divisions.

Red and blue lights swept alternately, as if the cocoon-themed statue standing in the middle was the center of the universe.

The live voice of the host and the simultaneous translation overlap.

After the game, Ji Tian quickly ran up the steps and shook hands with the host.

"Welcome Ji Tian." The host raised the microphone, "Today in this BO5, you won two more MVP games and led the team to victory. How do you feel at the moment?"

Ji Tian said: "I'm very happy. After all, neither my teammates nor I have been to the Incheon Munhak Stadium. This year, I finally have the opportunity to visit."

"Welcome to Seoul." The host said, "Actually, there are quite a few voices outside the court, including fan votes and club evaluations, saying that your personal ability can already be called the number one ADC in the world."

Ji Tian said: "I'm not very humble. I'm not very good at answering what you said. In short, it's good to win."

The host smiled, turned to the next question card, and began to ask technical questions in BO5.

……

Regarding technical questions, Ji Tian's description was objective and concise, and he quickly answered the card deck in the host's hand.

However, since tonight is the finale of the quarter-finals and the last game at Nirvana Park this year, the organizers gave an extra 15 minutes of interview time to interview the players with questions from the comment area.

"The first question arises." The host turned sideways and looked at the big screen.

[Imp: First of all, congratulations to KL for achieving the final four results, but in tonight's game, we can see that the performance of the players (especially the middle lane) is not strong enough, and the overall victory is not easy, then three days later, KL will face the fate of the Old enemy BYT, what kind of adjustments will be made?Should we continue to split the top and bottom lanes to suppress the economy, or do we have other ideas? 】

Ji Tian raised the microphone and pursed his lips.

His Chinese is not very good, and the reading comprehension of the whole paragraph, I can only see one sentence - "If KL beats like this again, he will be gone in three days."

But this is South Korea's home court. He was told by Sun Yueran before he took the stage that he should not be influenced by external factors. If he didn't want to answer questions, he could just be vague.

"Listen to the coaching staff's arrangement." Ji Tian said, "I am already very happy to be here, the process is as important as the result."

This is obviously the answer that the host and NC fans like to hear.

"BYT is a respectable opponent. As long as you do your best, you will have no regrets in winning or losing, isn't that true?" The host patted the tail of the microphone and applauded with the audience.

Ji Tian kept smiling in front of the camera until the applause subsided, and then turned on the mic again.

"Because in my heart, in parallel time and space, I have already won BYT."

……

After a few seconds of lag in the barrage and comment areas, the traffic surged.The response from each competition area was strong. BYT fans expressed surprise, anger, and ridicule. The NPL competition area gave countless praises. Some headline parties even began to write small essays to analyze Ji Tian's overtones.

[Ji Tian hinted at his dissatisfaction with the KL management in the interview...]

After the host listened, he paused for a while, showing a curious expression: "What's the situation? Does Ji Tian have something to say to the coaching staff or teammates?"

Ji Tian said: "KL's coaching staff is the best, and KL's players are the best. I start from my own perspective."

The host said, "Can you share it?"

"Although the version is being updated, the heroes are being updated, and the equipment is being updated..." Ji Tian snapped his fingers, counting factors one by one, and said to the camera, "professional players should have experience, and it really affects your understanding of this game. People, people who affect your thinking habits, basically appear at the beginning of your career, and after that, it’s just a process of constant adjustment to adapt to new changes.”

The host gave a gesture to let Ji Tian talk in depth.

Ji Tian said: "In the first game, I remember eating a big move from RUI in the middle."

The director screen is connected to the first game segment.

[RUI uses the big move Shark Nightmare in a disadvantaged situation!Hit Ji Tian! 】

Ji Tian said: "At that time, I felt that there was really another person in the parallel time and space. He used the keyboard to make combos and told me, don't leave, if you are targeted, you will fight back... So I hesitated at the time. "

The host said: "Because of "this person", you chose to use up the resurrection armor, and then stood at the end. "

"Yes." Ji Tian said, "No one knows what will happen to things that have never happened before, but in my heart, in parallel time and space, as long as this person is still there, we will definitely win BYT together."

The host said, "Can you tell me about this person who had a big influence on you early in your career?"

The director gave a large section of silent blank space for Ji Tian to think about, trying to create a climax atmosphere.

Most people guessed that it was Xian Shichu, but they didn't expect Ji Tian to give the answer just as the host finished speaking.

"Nightwish, Nightwish." Ji Tian said.

The phone slipped silently from his palm.

Xia Liang took a deep breath and tore off the mask with his left hand.

I don't know when the tears in my eyes fell on the quilt.

He is obviously not sad.

"I thought Ji Tian would talk about his original intention." Li Gui shouted at the door, "Yeyuan, do you hear that? He really dares to say it."

Xia Liang looked at her left hand that was stained with essence.

The bones are distinct, and the complexion is cold and white, which seems to be covered with a layer of silver frost under the fluorescent light of the screen.

This hand did exactly what Ji Tian said, it did the combo at the same time, but it was not in the same space.

His thoughts flew over the top of the Cocoon Grand Canyon. He saw Adrian on the left covered with snow and glaciers and frozen soil, and on the right was Noxus' scorching sun and volcanic lava. He heard Phoenix's long cry.

It was the cry of heroes cherishing heroes.

Not only because Ji Tian is his lover, but also because whether as a teammate or an opponent, Ji Tian is the only person in this world who truly understands him comprehensively.

"Hello? Nightwish?"

"I'm listening, I heard it." Xia Liang said, "I'm going to sleep, I have something to say about moving to a new place tomorrow."

The organizer will update the semi-final schedule the next day.

The match between ART and SKY is scheduled for November 11st;

The match between KL and BYT will be held on November 11.

The two teams that advance to the final will have a final on the afternoon of November 11th.

All four teams packed their luggage at the MASK Hotel.

A week ago, the corridors were bustling with players from all over the world, but now there are only one open and empty concierge room after another.

The computer in the KL training room has been vacated.

After Zhu Wenbin signed the list of head coaches and starters in the semifinals, he held the pen and did not put it down.

Sun Yueran checked the list of items beside him.

"I asked what brother Miao meant last night. So far, he is still vacillating." Zhu Wenbin said, "KL's training mode is much more mature than that of three years ago. Maybe it's time to break away from the Korean foreign aid mode. Save a lot of commission, but he is afraid of losing Jin Yanbin's resources, and KL will become an isolated island with no information."

Sun Yueran said: "You are Crush who used to be all-powerful, so you are not sure whether you can train independently?"

The ink of the pen spreads on the paper.

"I've been busy helping KL get sponsors all these years, so I don't have time to watch their training." Zhu Wenbin raised the nib of his pen and put on the cap, "But seeing the game last night, I suddenly understood Shi Chu's persistence. "

There were footsteps in the corridor.

Sun Yueran said: "Ji Tian is here."

When Ji Tian entered, he saw Zhu Wenbin and Sun Yueran sitting on a gaming chair.

There is an empty gaming chair opposite.

"Crush, Team Leader Sun, are you looking for me?" Ji Tian said.

"Yes, sit down." Sun Yueran said, "You are an adult, let's have a conversation between men."

Ji Tian is not polite and sits down.

"First of all, I would like to thank you for not saying that KL's coaching staff is the worst in front of the camera." Zhu Wenbin smiled, "We don't want to pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore. If you pester Nightwish again and again in public like this, you are not only upset with him, but also have something to say to us."

Ji Tian paused word by word: "I, entanglement, him?"

Sun Yueran said: "So far, all we have seen is that you take the initiative to make intimate actions with him in public, you go to Shanghai to accompany him to take the driver's license test, and you mention his name in interviews, but he never What's your response."

Ji Tian said: "He also responded to me."

Sun Yueran said: "For example? Ask you to use friendship coupons together?"

Ji Tian rolled up his sleeves and stood up: "You know what..."

"Hey, hey." Zhu Wenbin put the pen in his shirt pocket, got up and pushed Ji Tian back to the chair, "The point is not whether he responded, but what you want to say to us, Ji Tian."

"Speaking of which, I still have to ask Team Leader Sun." Ji Tian stood up again, "If you can't solve the problem, talk to me, what's the matter with Ye Yuan? Is it a man who is playing tricks?"

"Boy, if you have a chance, talk well." Sun Yueran lit a cigarette, crossed his legs, "Don't really think that KL has to enshrine you like a Buddha, and ask the sea god yourself, what is the end of the cock's tail? You are now The scenery is also because you are standing in the wind, if you are suspended for half a year, see if you still have a dime of traffic."

Only a few people know that Poseidon left KL and transferred to EMG because he was too tempered in training and offended Sun Yueran.

Hearing the following words, Ji Tian seemed to have finally calmed down, and sat back in his chair.

"Then I said it."

Zhu Wenbin nodded, showing approval: "That's right, if you have something to say, sit down and talk about it, and solve the problem in an adult way."

Ji Tian pulled up the armrest of the gaming chair, put it down again, went back and forth several times, and then spoke slowly.

"I request that Xian Shichu be the head coach of KL next season, remove all coach Jin Yanbin's titles, reorganize the team members, hire Xia Liang to return to KL as the starting mid laner, that's all."

After Ji Tian finished speaking, he went to the water dispenser to get three glasses of water and put them on the table.

Zhu Wenbin looked at Sun Yueran.

"That's it?" Sun Yueran took a puff of smoke, "Ji Tian, ​​do you have any misunderstanding about your identity? We can't decide any of the conditions you mentioned here, and even brother Miao has to ask the headquarters for opinions." .”

Ji Tian said: "You decide how to do it, but if I can't meet my request, I will retire next season."

Sun Yueran narrowed his eyes and sneered, "What do you mean?"

Ji Tian said: "Didn't you guys say to have a dialogue between men? My conditions and bargaining chips have been clearly expressed."

Someone's shadow passed by the door.

Zhu Wenbin picked up the paper cup to drink water, and was silent for a moment.

Sun Yueran lit his cigarette, looked out the window, and gradually stopped shaking his legs.

Ji Tian drew the curtains, closed the door, and turned on the lights.

Under the lamp, Zhu Wenbin's complexion gradually became serious.He and Sun Yueran realized that although the conditions were too high, Ji Tian was serious, and with KL's current lack of acceptance, if Ji Tian was lost, the next year might not even be possible.

"Don't worry, I will play the game seriously, and it's not my intention to retire." Ji Tian said, "In fact, I very much hope to renew the contract with KL, but judging from the current situation, KL has really reached a critical period of change. , I must stand up and express my opinion.”

Zhu Wenbin said: "Have you tried to communicate with Coach Jin first?"

Ji Tian said: "We have communicated, but the communication is ineffective, he has selfish intentions."

Sun Yueran said: "There is one more question that you haven't clarified."

Ji Tian said: "What?"

Sun Yueran said: "What if Xia Liang doesn't want to? Leaving aside the salary and treatment that ART gave him, not everyone likes to go back."

Ji Tian said: "As long as the first few conditions are met, he will be willing."

Zhu Wenbin said: "Did Shi Chu know that you wanted to talk to us?"

Ji Tian said: "I don't know, and I originally planned to wait until the end of the game to talk about it, but you guys looked for me first."

Zhu Wenbin sighed indistinctly.

From time to time in the corridor, the sound of the wheels of the suitcase sliding across the ground can be heard.

The movement of the elevator door opening and closing, the waiter knocking on the door and cleaning, etc. are all clearly identifiable.

They have nothing to say.

"You should know that the relationship behind this matter is complicated, and I can't give an answer in a day or two." Zhu Wenbin said, "But since you have made it clear, I will definitely convey it."

Ji Tian stretched out his hand: "Okay, if it's okay, I'll go back and organize things."

Zhu Wenbin was taken aback for a moment before he realized that Ji Tian wanted to shake hands with him.He held Ji Tian's hand, only to realize that this young man's hands were warm and dry, much more sophisticated than his own cold and sweaty hands.

"See you in Incheon."

The players of ART and SKY were arranged to enter the venue to familiarize themselves with the environment on the morning of the day before the semi-final.

Incheon Munhak Stadium is shaped like a sail and mast ceiling interlaced with the lines of the earth, from the auditorium along the aisle to the stage in the center of the field, just like sailors standing on the deck and looking at the distant boats coming from the horizon gradually become clear.

Xia Liang sat on the second floor, lying on the railing, put her hands around her mouth, and let out a cry in the direction of the west coast.

"what--"

No echo.

The empty field drowned out his voice.

"Did you know that the World Cup was held here once?" Li Gui said, "The specifications of this World Cup are all there. Tell me, will breaking the cocoon really become an Olympic event one day?"

Xia Liang said: "That shouldn't be possible. If I enter the Olympic Games, won't I be given a gold medal in the Paralympics?"

Li Gui said, "Hahaha."

Wu Ni, Song Shixun, and Chang Jinwen also followed after finishing debugging in their own cameras.

On the stage, SKY's players are now debugging the equipment.

Xia Liang watched his opponents.

Shooter Tree and mid laner PoPing are veterans who have participated in the World Championship for three consecutive years. They are experienced in action and communicate with the staff a lot; the jungler is SJZH, who transferred this year. He is a small man with yellow hair, always curious and smiling. It’s amazing; top laner Juice and support QAQ are newcomers, and everyone else has checked the computer and microphone, and they have to go back and check again.

"Our luck this year is really good." Wu Ni said, "SKY just changed his jungler, and he is a rookie in the top lane. No wonder he couldn't even beat KL in the group stage."

"If it grows well, Tree's output in the later stage is still very explosive." Song Shixun said, "We organize more attacks in the early stage, and it is best to take the Gun Demon. If I get banned, I want to take a mecha Xi Mengli..."

Chang Jinwen said: "Cooperate with my karma Vera."

Song Shixun said: "Well, Xi Mengli's control skills are easy to use, and the armor is also more powerful when starting a team, so he can stand up."

Wu Ni said: "The idea is good, so let's use Scorpion's Fang and Ridley in the first game, and see how they adjust in the second game, and then bring out Simonli.

If they go up to strengthen their defense, then we'll use Simonli to push down. If they want to grab gold from the middle and bottom lanes, we'll switch to Halson and Nightwish's Assassin. "

After discussion, the ART players are quite confident that they can beat SKY.Confidence stems from their strong personal strength in the upper, middle and lower fields, and the support can also change styles according to needs, which greatly improves the mobility of the entire team.

Xia Liang said: "Last time someone said that I wanted to grab the MVP, it seems that this time I can only reluctantly agree."

Chang Jinwen chewed his gum and stopped.

Li Gui said: "Hahaha, hurry up and divide Yewish into one, he has a grudge, and he is going to abandon us and go back to KL."

Chang Jinwen quickly took out the gum jar from his pocket, and asked all the ART team members to taste it.

Hoo-hoo--

Clear whistle.

The staff waved to them on the grass, indicating that they could not enter the auditorium without authorization, and asked them to walk through the dedicated passage.

The sun moved in and out between the clouds, the wind blew past, and the great lawn alternated light and dark.

"Nightwish."

Li Gui called Xia Liang to stop.

"What's the matter?" Xia Liang stopped at the turning.

"Ji Tian's matter won't affect you, right?" Li Gui said.

"You made a joke yourself, why do you take it seriously?" Xia Liang smiled, "We have come to this point, there is no turning back."
