For Love of the Game

235. World Champion

Song Xueyang started with three kills, which was a lot of pressure for WG.In the battle with Rider, the scene of him shooting one head at a time is still vivid in his memory, and everyone is afraid of following in Rider's footsteps.

The South Korean commentator said happily, "Snow is in good form tonight. He has three kills at the beginning. Although he lost his first blood, the 15% attack bonus is also very impressive in the early stage. It seems that Fengyue adopted the same method as in the battle against Rider. The main Ccarry stream!"

But the morale of the WG players was not discounted because of Song Xueyang's harvest, and everyone encouraged each other.

"It's okay, it's okay, call back!"

"Yes, it won't affect much, come on!"

"come on!"

Shell asked, "Brother Hui, do you need any help in the middle lane?"

Liang Minghui frowned and thought for a moment, "No, the deputy team will continue to clear the troops at the west gate, and the rest will gather at the east gate after they are resurrected!"

Fang Ze was startled, "Still fighting?!"

They just lost a wave of team battles, and Song Xueyang harvested three heads in a row. At this time, they should avoid their edge.Of course, he was even more surprised that Liang Minghui, who has always been cautious and steady, would issue such an order.

Liang Minghui's eyes were sharp, "The captain always said that my style of play lacked a bit of WG's style. They used three big moves in that wave just now, and we only lost one. Fengyue's lineup relies more on big moves than us. It's a good time to pursue."

Bei Ke's eyes lit up, "Brother Hui, you are so handsome! Didn't the captain tell us to act like a WG? Let's call him now!"

Shengguang milked Fang Ze's blood back, and Liang Minghui and Bei Ke quickly cleared the center line after being resurrected and moved towards the east gate.

The South Korean commentator was surprised to see this scene, "Is WG planning to fight again? They just lost a team battle!"

Zhang Jiayan in the waiting room smiled approvingly.

Yes, Minghui, that's it!In the face of a strong enemy, stability cannot win, and the way to control the enemy is to advance and retreat. Both you and WG have this strength!

Fan Jingming and Shi Yi from the east gate had just returned to the line after resupplying. Liang Minghui saw the opportunity and jumped out suddenly with a move called Flame Leap. Sharp, landed a big move, Liaoyuan, and actually controlled both Shi Yi and Fan Jingming on the wall of fire!

The audience all exclaimed in unison, and Niu Niu shouted excitedly, "The Huo guy actually used his big move to control two people! And it was a big move that flew over and opened in seconds! This is too amazing!"

To put it bluntly, Raging Fire and Liaoyuan is the only control skill of the fire mage, but it is extremely unstable. The enemy will only be stunned when it touches the edge of the fire wall. It is not easy to control one, let alone he can control it as soon as he makes a move. two!

WG's team members didn't expect Liang Minghui to shoot so accurately, but they were already ready to attack. Fang Ze cut in front of Shi Yi with one stride——Bright Moon Slash, Sword Pointing to the End of the World, and Furious Dragon Slash!

Shell finds a good angle, and hits Fan Jingming and Shi Yi with his skills at the same time—flaming brilliance!

Coupled with Liang Minghui's high damage from his ultimate move, killing people can only happen in the blink of an eye!

But at this moment, a white light array flashed under the two people's feet, and they were teleported to the west gate before the flames of the shells hit them!

There was an excited cheer at the scene.

"God's call, god's call!" The South Korean commentator said twice excitedly, "The god's call of Fengyuebai's spell is amazing! Yes, it's that girl! She usually feels a little inconspicuous, but I have already I can't remember how many times she saved the lives of her teammates at critical moments!"

The camera took a close-up of Zhou Jing. Under the lens, her eyes were calm, but her black eyes were piercing.

The netizens in the live broadcast frantically brushed the barrage.

[Quiet my goddess! ! 】

[On the importance of a good assistant!What happened without a nanny?White spells are not bad either! 】

[Zhou Jing really has good genes, both brothers and sisters are so powerful! 】

Zhou Jing's wave of divine summons not only saved the lives of Fan Jingming and Shi Yi or two, but also gathered everyone to the west gate and forced the arrow tower. Jia Yunge put down the tower without hesitation to save his life.

Liang Minghui was not reconciled to leaving like this, and led his team to clear the line of soldiers and push down the arrow tower at the east gate.

Yao Jundao, "This wave is equivalent to exchanging a tower between the two sides. WG's fire boss lost a big move, and Maple Moon also lost a god's summon. Overall, there is no loss or profit."

Because there are six people in Fengyue, most of them are from the physics department, and the tower pushing speed is faster than WG. Liang Minghui did not dare to be greedy. Seeing that they had returned to the city, they retreated one after another.

After the two sides cleared the line of soldiers, because the arrow tower at the east gate was broken, Shengguang and Fang Ze also liberated from the east gate, and went to the west gate to support Jia Yunge. Shell and Liang Minghui quickly cleared the two lines of troops at the east gate and the main gate, and rushed to Simon.

Yao Jun appreciated Liang Minghui's decision very much, "Huo Lao's brains turned quickly. Although the wave just now did not have an advantage, it abolished Zhou Jing as a big one. Without the call of the gods, Maple Moon's overall mobility will be much worse. If you are worried about fighting more and less, the enemy will call for reinforcements with a big move, so you can rest assured to catch the West Road!"

It is never wrong to start a WG frontally. Fang Ze drives Yufengxing and cuts directly in front of Haixing. Knock him away!

Fan Jingming and Shi Yi were still clearing the troops at the East Gate, and it would take a while to rush over. Naturally, this wave of regiments couldn't be fought. Zhou Ning also slashed the mountain and knocked Liang Minghui who was chasing him into the air, covering his teammates from escaping.

Song Xueyang aimed a shot in the direction of Ximen, and Liang Minghui, who had just been knocked into the air, was shot when he landed, and just one shot knocked out 50% of his blood!

WG's holy light quickly gave him a mouthful. Seeing that everyone in Fengyue was about to run under the tower, the shell opened a flame leap and rushed into the crowd. WG's halo battle gave him a control-free shield, and then opened the magic power—— 10% magic damage to nearby allies.

The second the shell hits the ground, the big move is launched - a blazing fire!

This move engulfed Zhou Ning, Zhou Jing, and Hai Xing in a sea of ​​flames!

At this time, it is impossible to run away, Liaoyuan can be interrupted originally, but the control-free shield is activated in the halo battle, as long as the shell does not stop Liaoyuan will not disappear.Of course, Shell will not stop, but he can die.

Zhou Ning immediately launched an attack on the shell with his sword energy shield - Haoyue Slash, Sword Pointing to the End of the World, and Epee Slash!

Zhou Jing only put a shield on herself, but Hai Xing was blessed by God, invincible for 3 seconds!

Of course, Hai Xing would not disappoint Zhou Jing's good intentions. He was originally a person who loved to be positive, but now he was immune to fight even more fiercely. He decisively activated rapid shooting and crazily output shells, and it took him a while to kill him.

Seeing that the shell was about to fail, Liang Minghui finally rushed over - Lie Yan Meteor!

Fiery Liaoyuan + Fiery Meteor!The two ranges were exactly the same, and the skills with more damage than the other were superimposed together. Zhou Ning couldn't resist at all and was killed instantly. Zhou Jing was also hit by a wraith. Starfish survived for 3 seconds because of his invincibility, but he Being alone and helpless is also death!

The hearts of the commentators tensed up, "The wraith of the white spell came out! But 30% of the blood still can't last long, Fengyue's guns are going to be thrown here! Hold on! Ming from the east gate and Eleven are coming soon!"

The camera quickly scanned Song Xueyang who was at the main entrance, and saw him laying on the ground with his gun pointed at Ximen's side but he didn't shoot for a long time. Obviously, the skill reading was not over yet.

Niu Niu said anxiously, "Oh, oh, the sniper is too slow to read the article! Can't you change what kind of broken job?!"

These words made the domestic professional players who were watching the game vomit blood one after another.

Song Xueyang has become so strong and changed?Is there still a way out for them to change?

Seeing the divine blessing on Hai Xing's body read to the last second, Zhou Jing, who got up in the state of a wraith, immediately chose him——Li Daitao froze!

The audience cheered wildly.

The South Korean commentator was so excited that he couldn't manage his expression well, "Wow! This is so handsome! The wave of white spells to protect the guns, he just let him carry the enemy's double big!"

Invincible for 6 seconds, if he can't kill anyone, he can commit suicide.

Starfish shot Shell to death with a few shots, and Fang Ze on the side was also crippled by him. Fan Jingming and Shi Yi finally came late, and Shi Yi aimed at Fang Ze's head and face with a set of combos - Yushuijue, Lei Spirit spell, five thunders strike the top!Song Xueyang's reading article also came to an end at this time - piercing the heart!

This gunshot was a professional player's nightmare, and everyone in WG noticed the skill spot aimed at Liang Minghui.

WG's holy light reacted quite quickly, and his fingers quickly tapped the keyboard - the dawn of dawn!Group immunity for 3 seconds!

The audience at the scene were all boiling!

Niu Niu shouted loudly, "Dawn of Dawn! Dawn of Dawn! Awesome! Xueshen's heart-piercing bullet and Shi Yi's five thunderbolts are all immune, it is indeed Dawn of Despair!"

WG fans swiped the barrage in the live broadcast room.

[WG is awesome! ! !Ahhh! ! 】

[Auxiliary or Healing Department Holy Light is awesome!At the critical moment, one move can prevent everyone from being dumbfounded! 】

It would not be an exaggeration to say that all the staff were dumbfounded. Fan Jingming and Shi Yi had just rushed in to cooperate with Song Xueyang in a wave of harvesting, but the situation was reversed, and it turned out that they were caught in a tiger's mouth!

Shi Yi hurriedly jumped back and fled two steps away, and Hai Xing also repulsed the nearest fighter, but when they turned their heads, they found that Jia Yunge was standing behind them at some point, raising his hand was a move to slow down the group, and then Unleash a big move - poisonous confusion!

The three of them were all slowed down, and they were superimposed with five layers of poisoning in the blink of an eye in the poisonous maze. Everyone in WG chased after the victory. Seeing that the three of them were about to confess here, Fan Jingming took the initiative to rush into the crowd to attract firepower.

"Run, you guys! Guard the handsome flag!"

If this wave of team battles fails, WG will definitely push to Shuaiqi. Song Xueyang's burst is high but the interval is long. It is impossible for one person to defend so many people's attacks.

Hai Xing turned his head and ran. Jia Yunge wanted to chase him, but was imprisoned by Shi Yika's force of nature. Hai Xing ran into the city gate on his short legs, and at the same time, the system sent a kill prompt .

——Shadow killed Ming!

——Cloud killed Eleven!

Starfish gritted his teeth and rushed to the healing point to recover. In this wave of WG, 1 was exchanged for 4. The remaining 5 people have already knocked down the arrow tower and are pushing the city gate!

Starfish looked anxious at his slowly recovering blood, and kept praying in his heart to hurry up!

Song Xueyang was still lying at the main entrance, but this time the gun was aimed at his own city gate. His sniper relied on long-range bonuses to deal damage, but returning to the city for support would show insufficient damage, and the family could only hand it over to Starfish.

He fired armor-piercing bullets and incendiary bullets to clear a line of soldiers, but at this moment the system prompted the attacking party to send an attack tank!

To add insult to injury, attacking tanks does very high damage and doubles the damage to enemy structures!

Liang Minghui's eyes lit up, God helped me, it's no problem to have an attack tank directly knocking down Shuaiqi!

"Wave after wave!"

Waiting for the attacking chariot to drive over, the half-blooded city gate was blown away with just one shot!

The audience cheered loudly at the scene, and the South Korean commentator said excitedly, "The damage of the attacking tank is too high! WG has a great advantage in choosing the attacking side, and this wave of tanks can directly overthrow Shuai Qi! Maple Moon is left Two gunmen can't hold it!"

Everyone in Fengyue was a little desperate. The attack chariot not only had a high attack, but also a high defense. Normally, even if two or three people concentrated fire to attack, they would be knocked off a tower by it. It is very difficult for them to overthrow the chariot within three attacks!

Losing the last game of the finals like this, everyone remembered the runner-up trophy they had left in the hotel. No matter how unwilling they were, they could only look at the gray screen, unable to do anything.

Song Xueyang's smile was completely suppressed, "Xingxing."

"Ah?" When Hai Xing opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse.

"Come on! Just the two of us, losing dead is better than losing alive, right?!"

Hai Xing was woken up by this sentence.

He quickly glanced at his skill bar, and his big move turned out to be good at this moment, like a ray of light shining in the dark, he rushed up to push back the chariot with an elastic shot, Fang Ze rushed up immediately To accuse him, Starfish rolled back to the ground and fired a hunter's mark, furious cannon fire!

The hunter mark randomly marks nearby enemies, but now there is only Fang Ze in the range of the skill. When the gun attacks the marked target, the damage is doubled. Each attack under the furious gun fire will knock the enemy back for a short distance. Fang Ze's Wind Walk Still on the CD, before he cut to the front of Hai Xing, he was marked with residual blood, and when he turned around and wanted to run away, he took the head with a slap in the face!

WG's halo battle rushed up to interfere with him, Song Xueyang immediately shouted, "Don't hit him!"

Even if the gunner's output is fast, it will take ten seconds to kill a rough-skinned and thick-skinned fighter, and the handsome flag has long been pushed away!Song Xueyang aimed a tracer bullet at Liang Minghui, because the distance was shortened, and the reading time didn't need to be so long, but the damage reduction only knocked out 30% of Liang Minghui's HP, but it pointed out a clear way for Hai Xing.

The starfish rolled and assaulted to bypass the halo battle, outputting Liang Minghui against the attacks of Warrior and Jia Yunge. At this time, the attack tank had already fired its first shot at Shuaiqi!

The sound of "Boom" almost exploded on everyone's eardrums, and everyone's heart trembled.

The South Korean commentator said nervously, "The damage of the attacking tank is too high! One shot knocked out 1/3 of Shuaiqi's blood! WG's people are also outputting Shuaiqi, another shot may be over!"

Hai Xing told himself in his heart that he didn't see or hear, it was all big radishes, he rolled to the right to avoid Liang Minghui's flames, and chased him and fired wildly.

——Star killed Shadow!

--Double kill!

After Hai Xing killed Liang Minghui, he rushed towards Jia Yunge. At this time, even chewing gum could not stop his thoughts.

"Rush, rush, rush! Boom! No one can run away! Everyone must die! Master Xing wants to reap the harvest!"

Jia Yunge slowed him down with a move called Gu Poison Confusion, and then threw out the Dove Fighting Spring and Poison, and the two poison needles superimposed the poisoned state on his body to 5 layers!However, the output of the legal system is still slower than that of the ADC. Although Starfish was beaten to a residual blood, he was also crippled despite his damage!

Song Xueyang ran over from the main entrance, and the lighter's shot just now made him realize that even the distance from the main entrance to Shuaiqi was not enough to repel the enemy's damage. He threw a smoke bomb at Jia Yunge's feet, and then fired Unleashed a very powerful shot—an instant explosive bomb!

As soon as Jia Yunge's field of vision went dark, he immediately pressed the ultimate move - Immortal Victory Buddha!

Song Xueyang's reaction was faster than Hai Xing's. Seeing him approaching, he immediately turned his gun to attack Halo Battle, and Hai Xing also rushed up - bullets, hunter's mark!

Song Xueyang's basic attack output is inferior to Haixing, but he can guide Haixing to make the most correct attack choice.

Niu Niu's eyes lit up, and at this moment, he seemed to be possessed by the starfish and thought about it, "Yunshen opened the golden body, although the halo battle is fleshy, it has no output, and it has no power to fight back under the attack of the two gunmen! Brother Xing's wave of output exploded, and God of War couldn't hold it anymore...Three kills! The big gun god brought the little gun god to harvest the whole field!"

When Jia Yunge's golden body ended, the halo battle was already dead, and Haixing beheaded three people in a row. With the head of Shell before, the attack power increased by 20%!

boom!

The attack tank launched a second attack, and this time, Shuai Qi only had 1/5 of his blood left!

Hai Xing was hesitant to hit the chariot first, after all, Jia Yunge could recover blood, so he couldn't be killed instantly, but at this moment, he saw that Song Xueyang's set of smooth rolling sniper knocked out 30% of Jia Yunge's blood volume!

"Ahh! Kill! Boom, boom, boom!"

Starfish immediately focused on attacking Jia Yunge. Jia Yunge's blood-boosting skill CD was only two seconds away, but Starfish's damage with a 20% attack bonus was too terrifying. Adding Song Xueyang, he was killed in less than a second.

——Star killed Cloud!

——Four kills!

The remaining one, Shengguang, has already escaped. WG's team battle has been dragging on for a long time, and his mana bar has been emptied. What can a healer without mana do?Only escape!

Song Xueyang aimed his gun at Shengguang, and at the same time commanded Starfish, "Hit the chariot!"

At this time, the attack tank had already aimed at the commander-in-chief flag, and the huge artillery had already appeared at the muzzle, and it was released after a three-second countdown. It was impossible to kill a full-blood tank in three seconds.

But this time without Song Xueyang's teaching, Hai Xing knew what to do, he desperately ran towards the chariot, ran to the front of the chariot with a roll attack, and shot a bouncy shot at the last second of the countdown!

boom!

The chariot was repelled by him for ten meters, and the last shot failed to hit the handsome flag because it was out of the attack range, but hit the starfish directly in front.

Hai Xing's blood volume is only 20% at this time, and this shot will definitely kill him, but he has used all his displacement skills, so he can't dodge this time.

Just when he was ready to die, a pale golden holy light shrouded him, and the word "immunity" popped up above his head at the same time.

—God bless!

As soon as Hai Xing's eyes lit up, he turned around and saw Zhou Jing rushing out of the spring water, followed by Zhou Ning, and the gray heads of Shi Yi and Fan Jingming in the list also lit up.

"You are finally resurrected!"

Zhou Ning turned on Yufeng Xing and rushed over, splitting mountains and chopping, and Zuigejian controlled the chariot. As soon as he caught up with the thunder and lightning attack, Fan Jingming swung his hammers - Meteor Hammer, Turbine Hurricane!

Hai Xing felt like he was about to cry.

He and his teammates destroyed the chariot together, and Song Xueyang blindly shot and killed WG's Shengguang at this time!

——The group is destroyed!

——The defenders are about to send out defensive chariots!

The good news came one after another, and everyone was excited.

"go!"

Song Xueyang picked up his gun and led his teammates to rush from the west gate. The arrow tower on this road has been pulled out, and there is only a lonely city gate left. Zhou Jing drives a group to speed up for everyone to hurry, even the slow defensive chariot Instantly speed up and become a high-speed rail.

The six people gathered together and broke through the city gate in twos and threes. Starfish drove rapid fire to attack Shuaiqi, but the damage of the defensive chariot was not as good as that of the attacking chariot, and Shuaiqi's HP was only half lost. Resurrected.

Niu Niu said nervously, "Beike and Fang Ze are both revived! Huo Dao is only 3 seconds away! If this wave is disturbed, Fengyue may not be able to push it all the way! If the enemy with full status fights back and wipes out, he will lose completely!"

Fan Jingming rushed to the resurrection point and aimed at the shell to start a duel. His position was excellent, not only restricted the shell's movement, but also blocked the resurrection point in the square ring!

Even Yao Jun, who was always calm, broke his voice, "This duel is beautiful! It completely blocked WG's resurrection point!! The ring lasts for ten seconds! Unless Keike can kill him in advance, no one will be able to fight within ten seconds." come up with!"

But asking a sorcerer who has lost his Shuangda to kill a bulldozer berserker who has just converted to Shuangda is simply too difficult for him! WG's people were resurrected one by one, but they were stuck at the birth point and couldn't get out. They could only watch as Shuaiqi's blood volume decreased and he finally fell to the ground.

--victory!

When these two words appeared on the screens of everyone in Maple Moon, everyone felt half-dream and half-awake, unable to recover.

Starfish was the first to jump up, "We won, we won! World champions! World champions!"

The sound of "world champion" completely brought everyone back to their souls, and turned to Fan Jingming excitedly, unable to speak fluently, "Win, win! I, we won!"

Zhou Ning stared at his screen for a long time, his heartbeat hadn't calmed down from the tight game, but the ecstasy had already rushed to his brain.

Won!world champion!

This is China's first world champion and the first in his career.

Six years, six years, he waited for this moment, it has been too long.

Zhou Jing held his hand and smiled, "Brother."

Seeing his sister, Zhou Ning showed a big smile and held her hand tightly.

After Hai Xing yelled, she lay down on the table and cried, burying her face in her arms, "I fucking almost thought I lost! Almost!"

Zhou Ning patted him on the shoulder to coax him.

Emotions can be contagious.

When Shi, who was still holding back, heard his crying, he also shed tears. He thought of all the experiences he had encountered since his debut, the mistakes and successes he had made along the way after joining Fengyue, and the day he dragged his suitcase to join the professional team Let's talk about the goals I set for myself and the promise I made to Fan Jingming.

world champion!Today he finally did it!

Fan Jingming hugged him into his arms and coaxed him, "Stop crying, why cry when you win."

He said so, but in fact, the excitement was not less than that of Shi Yi, but years of precipitation allowed him to control himself well.

Shi Yi wiped away his tears and smiled, "I'm afraid I won't be able to win the championship before you leave. Fortunately, we won. I'm so happy."

Seeing everyone's happy smiling faces, Song Xueyang finally let go of her heart.

World champion, whose dream isn't it?

He always believed that he could do it, but all of this became more meaningful because of Shen Huai's appearance, because he could finally give that person an explanation. He owed him his dream and the championship trophy, all at this time This is the moment.

With a smile on his face, he stood up from his chair and was about to tell everyone to go out together when the door of the soundproof room was knocked open. Before he could see clearly, a person rushed over and hugged him tightly. over his shoulder.

Familiar breath, familiar temperature, silent character, the person on his heart.

The excited voice of the commentator and the screams of the audience came through the open door.

""City of Despair" S6 season world champion - Fengyue team! They won the first world championship for China, and the profiles of each of them will be hung in the World E-Sports Exhibition Hall in Burbank, California, USA... "

Song Xueyang patted Shen Huai's shoulder with a smile, "I promised you the champion, and I did it."

Shen Huai didn't say anything, just hugged him tightly, even though the audience's screams resounded throughout the arena, his fingers tightly grasped Song Xueyang's clothes, occupying the position of his shoulders and refused to raise his head.

Song Xueyang reached out to touch his head, and his fingers accidentally touched a piece of wetness, only to realize that he was crying.

A man who has been victorious in all battles will cry because of a victory.

Song Xueyang simply hugged him, covered him with his arms from the camera, and whispered in his ear, "It's okay, no one will see."

The author has something to say:

Linfeng: Shou cried.

Zhou Ning: Except me.

Linfeng: Because you are always away.

Starfish: What about me? ?

Linfeng: Quiet is the attack!

The last game is finally over, and there is still a while before the end, because I know that some people like to skip to the end after watching the beginning, so I will say some things in advance, and I will stop when I officially end the epilogue. mention it.

This article brought me many firsts, the first time I wrote a million-word novel, the first time it took more than ten months from preparation to completion, the first time I got full attendance, the first time I followed V (although 14W words Cai V), this is the first time that so many little angels leave messages and share stories with me.It is also the first time to be scolded by so many people, the first time to be negatived by others, and the first time to receive a long negative score...

Good words are warm in the winter, and bad words hurt the cold in June.

Only I know the hardships. I don’t think I did anything wrong, and it’s impossible to change the plot, but it’s undeniable that I used to be in a bad mood because of these influences on my work during the day. The people who commented one by one and replied one by one were afraid to look at the comment area, and even feared to be listed, and finally practiced selective blocking with a body of steel.

But no matter what I insist on updating, it is too stupid to give up my dreams and loyal readers because of other people's words, and I can't do it.But in fact, it is not so easy to keep the status code words. The society is doomed that we will never be able to completely ignore other people's opinions. I know that those words affect the mood of others, so I only updated in less than a hundred for seven months. I mentioned it once in the chapter, and now is the last time.

I know that even after this article is finished, those voices will not stop a year or many years later.But I believe that readers who can catch up here will really like this article.So Linfeng has an unfeeling request, and I hope that readers who see here in the future can help me up the malicious comments, one is enough.I cherish this article with too many "firsts" of mine. I don't want to lock it, and I don't want to click in after it is finished. It will be a negative comment. This wish can only be realized with everyone's help.

One more thing, the little angels who have been chasing after me all the way should be able to feel that the post-update of this article is not as good as the previous one. It is really because I was diagnosed with a lumbar disc problem and found it difficult to sit in front of the computer for too long, and the efficiency of coding has seriously declined. , but don’t worry everyone, in order to stay in Jinjiang for a few more years, I have to keep exercising!By the way, I lost the ten catties of fat I gained while coding this novel.

Finally, end with a sentence that gives me strength when I am at my lowest point - what doesn't kill me will make me stronger!
