FOG [e-sports]

Before the start of the FOG World Championship every year, in order to increase the enthusiasm of players to watch the game, the game official will launch a betting activity in the game client to predict the championship of the World Championship. Players can use the in-game currency to bet on the team they think can win the championship. After the game is over, players who are lucky enough to bet on the winning team will get corresponding game coins according to the odds.

This year's in-game activity started after the confirmation of the teams in each major region to compete in the World Championship. The total amount of bet game currency also represents the popular ranking of each team to win the championship to a certain extent.

The data ranking in the game client has gradually stabilized as early as a week ago, and now the favorites to win the championship are ranked first: European Holy Sword Team.

The favorite to win the championship ranks second: the Chinese Free team.

Since the establishment of the FOG League, it was the first time that the favorites to win the first and second teams met in the quarterfinals.

The moment Yu Sui drew the lottery, it meant that one of the top [-] favorite teams to win the championship this year would definitely lose in the quarterfinals.

Either Free, or Holy Sword.

Since the establishment of the Holy Sword Club, the worst record in the World Championships is the semi-finals.

The Free club was just established this year, so there is no way to go back to the historical records. If you count Yu Sui's personal results, his worst record in the world championship is the runner-up.

Based on this data, the historical records of both sides are very impressive.

And after this quarter-finals knockout match, the loser will not only have to pack their bags and go home to end in a dismal end, but will also be forced to record the worst record in history——

Round of the quarterfinals of the World Championship.

Before the start of the World Championship, everyone expected that the fateful team Free and Holy Sword might meet, and they would give a final answer to the fruitless practice match at the beginning of the season.

But no one expected that the two parties would meet so early.

In the stadium lounge, Yu Sui was reminded to draw lots but the staff was still there.

According to the regulations, when a player is not accompanied by the accompanying staff of the team, the staff of the competition team must act as a translator and reception to take care of the single player.

Watching Yu Sui draw out the lottery for the holy sword competition, the staff members were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.

The two favorites to win the championship, this meeting?Is this too early? !

While the staff were terrified, they felt sorry for Yu Sui. They were so lucky before, and they got the precious No. [-] qualifying spot smoothly. The No. [-] seed team originally had a great advantage in the quarter-finals. The possibility of advancing is very high, but I didn't expect that there would be a holy sword.

At this moment, the other No. [-] teams probably breathed a sigh of relief, the piranha and the lottery in the No. [-] seed pool were drawn away by Yu Sui.

After a brief shock, the staff member shook his head and turned to look at Shi Luo. He wanted to calm down and comfort this young player who entered the World Championship for the first time as an adult, telling him not to be afraid and not to put too much pressure on his heart.

But when he saw the expression on Shi Luo's face, the poor staff member couldn't say any words of comfort.

Shi Luo looked at the word "Holy Sword" on the simultaneous live broadcast screen, his pupils lit up, the corners of his mouth curled up a little bit, and the tip of his right finger resting on his knee was trembling slightly with excitement.

Shi Luo lowered his head and smiled, and then couldn't help laughing out loud.

staff member:"……"

The staff broke down, is this newcomer laughing? !

Are newbies this crazy now? ! ! !

The rookie player is going to give away the head of the current favorite team to win the championship. Is it worth being happy? ! ! !

I don't know if he had witnessed Yu Sui's gastric bleeding before being admitted to the hospital. Shi Luo's rejection and guard against bloodstains were different from ordinary people.

Especially when these things are tied together with Yu Sui.

That's why when Shi Luo saw the holy sword's twitter with the picture of the blood-stained wing, Shi Luo became furious, and then wished to really go out of the lounge to the live broadcast room and tear this group of people apart.

Regardless of whether the holy sword was intentional or unintentional, Shi Luo paranoidly felt that this was cursing Yu Sui and provoking him from afar.

Shi Luo couldn't bear half of the bullying, so there must be an explanation for this matter, it happened that Holy Sword wanted to disgust the other No.

The murderous intent and excitement on Shi Luo's body were too obvious, and the staff members were full of disbelief. What is going on in this year's World Championship?One by one is this all crazy?When the quarterfinals meet Holy Sword, even Free will not have a winning rate of more than 50.00%. What is there to be happy about?

The staff was still worried that the boy had been overly stimulated, and said softly in Chinese, "This is how the lottery is drawn. You can encounter anything. There is no way to talk about luck."

Shi Luo's eyes were red, and he stared at the live broadcast screen: "Yes, with a one-third chance, we finally got it."

The staff struggled to confirm, "You... are you really happy? Are you really sure about your quarter-finals?"

The rookie Evil, whose professional ID was entered into the World Championship roster in the first year, pointed to the Holy Sword team logo on the live broadcast screen, and said, "Did you see this team? They're dead."

staff member:"……"

The lottery is still going on, the first group of Free vs. Holy Sword in the left half is determined, and then the next group of North America vs. South Korea is determined.

The Swedish team that has just qualified in Group D in the right half will be determined against NSN, and the final group will be determined against another North American team against Norway in the wild card division.

The staff couldn't help gasping. Anyone with eyes could see that the distribution of the top eight teams in this year's draw was extremely uneven. In the left half, there were two explosively strong No. [-] seed teams, and a holy sword piranha who swam into the No. [-] pool , but also a strong Korean team, the left half is simply a place where strong teams are buried.

The staff members are fans of the North American team in the left half, and they couldn't help muttering in English that the left and right half of this year are not balanced at all, and it is much easier for the teams in the right half to qualify.

"If you think it's unfair, go talk to Holy Sword." After the lottery was over, Shi Luo got up, and said calmly, "It's the first time I've seen someone who played dirty to disturb the balance of the promotion."

"Of course, it may also be the reason why I have zero experience, and I don't see much evil."

Shi Luo put on his coat and went to look for Yu Sui. The previous lottery was over, and the captains of the eight advanced teams came out of the live broadcast hall one by one. Shi Luo and Gu Gan clapped their hands, but Gu Gan was still brooding, "They... "

"Very good." Shi Luo looked at Captain Holy Sword not far away, "I thought it was up to you to send them home, but now it's fine, we will do it ourselves."

When Yu Sui left the live broadcast hall, Shi Luo and his eyes met, so there was no need to say any more.

Yu Sui Shiluo went back to the hotel together, everyone including the team members had a meeting in Zhou Huo's room, the two went to find it, and heard Chen Huo's loud voice before entering the room.

"Control! Control points!" Chen Huo held the top eight match list written by Old Qiao, without the slightest timidity on his face, "Where is your mother controlling? It's so lack of presence! I just want to worry about the other No. [-] team , I want to send other people's top eight home, but it's grandpa's head, isn't it fun?!"

When Yu Sui and Luo entered the room, Chen Huo looked at Yu Sui and smiled, "Okay, it's the first time I'm so lucky."

Puppy leaned on the sofa beside her and smiled lazily, "Exciting."

Compared with the players, the faces of the other team members in the room were a little less excited and a little more worried.

Just a few minutes ago, the Holy Sword manager sent a tweet on his personal account:

【Whisper, please accept this little gift from me. 】

Old Qiao held the mobile phone, the anger on his face was still there, "It's not that we think too much, they did it on purpose. It's amazing. We didn't bother them. They actually have the face to pick things up. Who is sorry for whom? ? Are they still reasonable?!"

"Why didn't you care?" Unlike Old Qiao, Zhou Huo could better understand the thoughts of the middle and high-level executives of a purely commercial club like Holy Sword. "From the perspective of the owner of Holy Sword, when last season just ended...my club just won the championship. , I originally wanted to spend more money and let these players continue to play for me honestly and win the championship. No, I didn’t expect that I would add so much signing fee in the new season. The healer still left, and took two important players with him, and returned to their declining competition area, and the three of them rebuilt the team together, and even made it to the World Championship...It must be hard to swallow this breath."

Zhou Huo looked at Yu Sui, "Didn't you say before that when you left, the manager of Holy Sword threatened you?"

Yu Sui was actually the least surprised that the holy sword came out so suddenly, he nodded, "He said... I'm going back to my competition area, it's impossible for me to win the championship again."

"I know how much they hold grudges, but when they left, what they said was still very unpleasant." Yu Sui looked at the battle list written by Old Qiao, and smiled at Zhou Huo, "I caused the trouble myself, my old club My lesson is here now, I admit it."

Zhou Huo took care of everyone in the team this year. It can be said that he has worked hard. A manager has done too little for him. Yu Sui usually never said it out loud, but he was grateful in his heart.Now it is possible that the performance of the entire team may be affected by the old hatred in the team, and it is actually unfair to Zhou Huo to lose to the top eight.

Unlike these few players, Zhou Huo had nothing to do with Shengjian before. He didn't come to be Free's manager.

Old Qiao looked at Zhou Huo, and when he came to his senses, there was a little apology in his eyes, "Just... there's nothing you can do about it, Liang Zi made it up early, even if you lose later, you can't blame Yu Sui..."

Shi Luo's eyes moved slightly, and he interjected, "It's also my part. I was the one who directly provoked the holy sword a few days ago."

Zhou Huo looked at a few people and was stunned for a while, then laughed, "Do you think we caused trouble before blaming you? What are you kidding?!"

Zhou Huo had no choice but to look at the team follower who was also crowded in the room, adjusted his tie, and said suddenly, "Open the camera and take a piece of material for me. Now let me explain it clearly to everyone. It happens that I will use it later. .”

The follower was stunned for a moment, nodded his head quickly, and turned on the camera swiftly, aiming at Zhou Huo.

"Since you have entered a club, as a manager, whether your past or current grievances, whether good or bad, are all my responsibility, I will be responsible, and I will bear it with everyone. The job of being a manager."

Until now, I haven't figured out how to play this game. Zhou Huo, who used to be a mother-in-law, now has a gangster look on his face, and his murderous look is exactly the same as these villains in the team.

Zhou Huo looked around at everyone in the room, talking to several players and other staff members, "Isn't the worst result losing? Isn't the worst result dying in the quarterfinals and being raped by trolls?" Don’t worry about playing, whether it’s public relations or controlling gangsters, I can handle it. It’s the honor of our entire team to win, and it’s because of you shooting one shot at a time, because you have almost no holidays for almost a whole year in a season, overdraft Physical fitness, staying up all night and all night, practicing one shot at a time."

"It's your job to practice hard and go to the game. After losing the game, it's the job of me and all the logistics staff of our entire club. Everyone performs their duties."

"You don't think we applaud you all day long after you win the game, and we have no right to complain about the commotion outside your game." Zhou Huo calmly looked at everyone in the room, "I will be the manager for one day and I will help you I am responsible for everything, I am paid, so I ask the players not to add psychological burden to themselves, and to blame me."

"Being so targeted by the champion club of the last world championship in the world competition, forcibly lifting our club, which is less than a year old, to such a position, let us have the honor of public relations on such a high-level issue, I am happy."

Zhou Huo finally looked at Yu Sui, his eyes sparkled, "In China, on the day of the draw for the group stage, you told me that it was very satisfying to eliminate a strong team with your own hands, and that kind of pleasure was enough to offset all the exhaustion and pain. I have never experienced it before. All of our staff have never experienced it, so please work hard..."

"What does that feel like, let's experience it for ourselves."
