Recently, Zuo Zhengyi often has messy dreams at night, probably because of the intense competition and psychological pressure.

These dreams are very chaotic, there are no rules to follow in places, characters and events, even Zuo Zhengyi himself is not always the protagonist.

He always dreams about other people, for example, the neighbor's kid who fought with him when he was young, the gentle junior high school female teacher, the old book seller who died alone, and the owner of the peripheral shop "Sword Furnace" that he was familiar with...

Looking at it this way, it seems to be regular.

But they are not all of them, Zuo Zhengyi also dreams of strangers whom he only met once.

Some of those strangers were met by him and Ji Jue on the way to school, at the gate of the supermarket, or at the train station, and some were temporary teammates who had never met before and were randomly arranged in the game.

They appeared in Zuo Zhengyi's dream, being the protagonists, doing illogical things, and the background of the time is not fixed, sometimes fighting wars in ancient times, and sometimes building spaceships in the future...

If there's an absolute parallel among these illogical events, it's that at the end of the dream, they all go to play.

That's right, playing games, being a professional e-sports player.

Although some of these people are too old for the job.

Every time Zuo Zhengyi woke up from a dream, he couldn't help but meditate for 5 minutes.

Last night he had a similar dream again, this time the protagonist was even more bizarre, it turned out to be Ji Jue's mother Xie Lan.

Ji Jue's father was not left behind either, Ji Guoyuan played support and Xie Lan played AD.They sat on the main stage in the center of the competition venue, wearing headphones, with calm faces and sharp operations. The audience was full of people cheering for them.

Zuo Zhengyi told Ji Jue about the dream, and Ji Jue seemed to have heard the Arabian Nights, his expression was blank for a moment, and he laughed out loud.

"What do you mean by these dreams?" Before they got up, Zuo Zhengyi lay beside Ji Jue, took his arm and asked, "Don't they all say that they think about it every day and dream about it at night? But I didn't think about it during the day. These. Even if I dream about your parents, I should be arguing with them, how can I compete on the same stage?"

The word "compete on the same stage" caught Ji Jue's laugh again. He hugged Zuo Zhengyi tightly, and laughed tremblingly on Zuo Zhengyi's shoulder: "Forget it, it's just a dream, don't take it seriously."

Zuo Zhengyi paused slightly, and said with a serious face: "I'm serious, when I reached the knockout round of the Champions Cup last season, I often had strange dreams. The most impressive dream at that time was that I robbed Zhou Jiankang of money, Buy a plane ticket, fly to a small country in Europe to be the king, and then win the WSND.”

"Do you believe this?" Ji Jue asked him.

But Zuo Zhengyi said: "It's not a question of belief or not, it's called metaphysics, do you understand?"

"..."

Ji Jue couldn't stop laughing: "Then what do you think it means in metaphysics to compete with my parents?"

"I want to win." Zuo Zhengyi said affirmatively, "I can't beat your parents?"

He got off the bed to get dressed, but Ji Jue stretched out his arm from behind his waist, hugged him, and dragged him back to the bed.

Ji Jue's pajamas were unbuttoned a few times at night, and the skirt was half open. He pressed Zuo Zhengyi from above, and kissed him forcefully.

Zuo Zhengyi almost couldn't catch his breath, he was suffocated by his kiss, and he pushed and kicked him off his body: "Why do you get nervous so early in the morning? You are so annoying."

"This is also metaphysics." Ji Jue said imitating Zuo Zhengyi's tone just now, "I draw some energy from you, and I will be more energetic in the game today."

Zuo Zhengyi: "..."

They lingered on the bed for a few minutes, not long, but kissed again.

In fact, we had already kissed enough last night, Zuo Zhengyi was missing a great virtue, so he got Ji Jue out of the fire and ran to the bathroom to stay.But how long can you take a shower?After he finished washing, Ji Jue was still waiting for him on the bed.

It's too exhausting before game day, and all those desires turn into kisses.

Ji Jue euphemistically called it "Goodnight Kiss", but in fact Zuo Zhengyi was sweating all over his body, his tongue was about to be bitten and swallowed, his arms were trembling from his waist, his legs were weak, his breathing was messy, and it took a long time. It took some effort to end.

Ji Jue seemed to be particularly addicted to this aspect, and Zuo Zhengyi became more and more able to taste it after being influenced by him.

But humans are not beasts, and they should not be overly dominated by desires, otherwise they will easily make mistakes.

When Zuo Zhengyi and Ji Jue separated, what he thought in his heart was, "I really have principles".And Ji Jue said "I have sacrificed too much for e-sports" on his face, what a pair of fateful couples.

The pair of "Mandarin Ducks" finally got up and went out. When they came to the restaurant, the teammates had just started eating.

Yan Qingyun reserved a place by his side for Zuo Zhengyi.But Ji Jue drove him away and took his place, sitting next to Zuo Zhengyi.

Zhang Zili watched the commotion, and said with a smile, "Greatness is in vain."

Ji Jue said: "I am enough to be courteous, right, brother?"

"Yeah." Zuo Zhengyi responded, "One of you is better than three."

After the words were lost, a furry thing suddenly came between him and Ji Jue. Zuo Zhengyi looked down and saw that Xiao Jian was climbing up his leg.

Zuo Zhengyi picked up the kitten with one hand, and played with its pad while eating breakfast.Xiao Jian didn't seem to have had enough sleep yet, he lay sprawled on his lap and snored with a lazy look on his face.

The meal time is about the time for gossip. Zuo Zhengyi pricked up his ears to listen to his teammates chatting. They were discussing tonight's game. When XYZ was mentioned, Song Xianfeng said, "Did you see the melons from last night?"

"What melon?" Yan Qingyun asked.

Song Xianfeng said: "XYZ's official blog opened a trumpet under the skin and tore it up with netizens, and was picked up. He emptied the trumpet overnight, but he was still screenshotted."

Zuo Zhengyi interjected, "Is there any exciting content?"

"There are quite a few." Song Xianfeng said with a smile, "This official blogger is a treasure boy. He will comment on any disturbance in the e-sports circle, and scold whoever is caught. The comment period lasts for three years, two months I've hacked you before, Brother End."

Zuo Zhengyi: "..."

This can also be shot.

But this is not surprising, they are all insiders, who will not eat melons if something happens?It’s just that it’s okay for everyone to discuss a few words in private, and posting the feelings of eating melons on the public platform will inevitably cause trouble.

Zuo Zhengyi didn't care.

But the point Song Xianfeng wants to say is not this. He said: "Before he emptied Weibo, the latest one was about tonight's game. He said that he is not afraid of scorpions. They have found a way to deal with End. They want the world's No. Shan's legs are discounted, so that EPL will no longer be superstitious about Zuo Zhengyi."

"..." Zuo Zhengyi almost choked on his intake pipe with a mouthful of porridge, wordlessly took out a napkin, and wiped the corners of his mouth.

"So crazy?" Ji Jue put the peeled egg into his bowl and said, "He should protect his legs first, because he talks so much."

"I was fired by XYZ this morning." Song Xianfeng said, "Everyone understands 'temporary worker'."

"..."

Zuo Zhengyi laughed and said, "I'm free. But since he said that, I have to take a good look at what set meal they have prepared for me with a broken leg."

"Targeted" is not surprising at all.

Which famous player can not be targeted these days?What do data analysts do?Just do this.

In fact, some people think that Zuo Zhengyi was stronger when he first debuted than he is now, and it is also because of this.

The genius of a newcomer was born out of nowhere, making it hard for everyone to guard against.

They said that his operation was a stroke of genius, a divine show of good fortune—in short, it is not something that ordinary people can do, highlighting a "spiritual energy".

But if you play too many games, you won't be so hard to defend against.

What everyone is studying is "how to defend", disassembled and analyzed him from head to toe, as if solving a math problem, and have to use big data to calculate a standard answer.

Every time Zuo Zhengyi played an extra game, he added an additional analyzable sample to the "database".

Many powerful players seem to be gradually "deteriorating" because they are thoroughly analyzed. In the eyes of their opponents, Zuo Zhengyi naturally cannot escape this law.

Has XYZ already calculated the "answer"?

Zuo Zhengyi was very curious.

He's in a good mood, not too worried.But it would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous at all.

This nervousness is not because of XYZ, but because tonight is a knockout game - if you win, you can advance to four, move on, if you lose, you will be eliminated directly, and the championship journey is over.

To be objective, it is not frustrating, Zuo Zhengyi does not think that the Scorpion EPL has a great chance of winning the championship.Because fate is not in my hands, I have to pray for CQ to lose a few more games.

But does prayer work?

CQ has a strong army and a strong horse, and its top position is very stable.

Behind CQ, there is No.2 Lion watching.

So Zuo Zhengyi pinned his hope of winning the championship this season on the Champions Cup. If he could win the sacred Moon Cup, his efforts this year would not be in vain.

Thinking of this, Zuo Zhengyi became more and more convinced that he couldn't lose tonight.

——The coach has the same idea.

In the afternoon, before Xie Zi left for the competition venue, the whole team gathered in the team bus, and Sun Chunyu said a few words.

He was still wearing a suit and tie today, with his hands behind his back, his eyes swept across the car like a dean, and he asked first: "Are you nervous?"

Zuo Zhengyi and Ji Jue shook their heads in unison.

Zhang Zili said, "A little bit."

Yan Qingyun said, "It's okay."

Song Xianfeng said: "Don't be nervous, the problem is not big."

Faced with their different reactions, Sun Chunyu did not comment, but only encouraged: "EPL is not easy to win, and now the Champions League is more important to us. One knockout round will save one game. Work harder and win the championship. Show your strongest strength. In fact, I am very confident, after all, our training state is very good recently, and it is worthy of meeting anyone, right?"

"That is."

"Of course, it's awesome!"

"Impossible to lose!"

"Don't worry, Brother Ah Chun."

There was a lot of joking and joking in the car, Sun Chunyu also laughed, and said a few more things to pay attention to, and then sat back in his seat.

This is the evening of April 4rd, the first knockout round of the Shenyue Champions Cup: Scorpion vs. XYZ.

Both teams arrived backstage on time, gearing up for the fight.
