The shooting ended around noon. Chi Shengxi and the staff quickly sent down jackets to prevent the team members from catching cold before the semi-finals started.
The two teams had lunch together at a hotel by the Blue Lake, and then each took the bus back.
When they parted, the two teams also agreed to meet in the finals.
In the car, Lin Cheng felt a little regretful, "What a pity! I heard that the Blue Lagoon is the largest open-air hot spring in Iceland, but we didn't even take a dip in it this time."
Effort responded: "That's right! People filming the promotional video were so cold. It would be great if they could take a bath in a hot spring."
Little Peanut and Mr. Dai were not interested in bathing in hot springs, so they said they might as well go back to the hotel and take a hot bath early.
Chi Shengxi waved his hand: "Okay, you two, stop complaining. Come and soak in the hot springs after you win the championship. It's up to you to do whatever you want after you win. The coach is still waiting for you to go back at the hotel today."
The others fell silent, but Lin Cheng chuckled.
"Do you know why the coach is in a hurry to ask us to go back? The main reason is that he doesn't want the outside world to think that he is doing nothing, and the face-saving project must be put in place. If we win the championship casually outside, how embarrassed will the coach be then? Others
It’s time to say that KT’s coaching bench has the same dog even if it’s tied up.”
Little Peanut: "Haha! Lin Cheng, you are dead! I caught you saying bad things about the coach behind his back. I will file a complaint when I go back."
Lin Cheng said with a knife-edge attitude, "Go ahead and sue! Is there any evidence? Without evidence, do you think I'm afraid? You're setting up a false accusation!"
Chi Shengxi shook his phone and said, "Sorry, I recorded what you just said. You can go back and explain to the coach."
Lin Cheng:(⊙⊙)
It's one thing to say dirty things behind your back, but it's still very troublesome if the coach catches you on the spot.
His teammates burst into laughter, and Lin Cheng pretended to be dead.
After calming down dejectedly for a while, he couldn't help but secretly asked Chi Shengxi: "Nu Na! You're not really recording, are you?"
"you guess?"
Lin Cheng said flatteringly: "You wouldn't do that to my little brother, right? What's the relationship between us? Look... there's no need to make trouble for these outsiders."
Chi Shengxi glanced at him speechlessly.
Who is the outsider?
"Actually, Nu Na, you also know that I am a homebody. I am not interested in hot springs or anything. I didn't mean to say bad things about the coach... The main thing is that I feel sorry for you."
Chi Shengxi glanced at Lin Cheng in surprise and pursed her lips.
Make it up! Keep making it up!
"I'm angry that you, who worked hard in Iceland to take care of our lives, didn't have the chance to visit the scenic spots. What a pity that you came here with us to enjoy a gust of cold wind and then went back?"
"I heard that the water of Blue Lake is rich in minerals and is good for the skin. The coach is still rushing to ask us to go back at this time. It's all because he caused Sister Shengxi to miss this opportunity to soak in the hot spring... So,
We are all in the same group, would you please delete the recording?"
Lin Cheng was so stiff that Chi Shengxi couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, I'm kidding you, I don't have the time to secretly record it."
Lin Cheng chuckled: "I know Sister Sheng Xi is not that despicable, shameless, dirty and dirty person."
Chi Shengxi: "·····"
What do I think you are insinuating?
"Also, what I said just now is sincere. It's not that I want to take a hot spring bath, but that I really feel sorry for Sister Sheng Xi."
Chi Shengxi stuffed a piece of chewing gum over and said, "Okay, okay! Don't feel sorry for me, my body is not suitable for swimming today."
Lin Cheng was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Is your aunt here?"
Chi Shengxi rolled his eyes, "Didn't you see the personal items in my bag?"
Lin Cheng thought for a moment, then smiled and touched Chi Shengxi's arm with his elbow: "Oh! Sister Shengxi, please stop pretending. How can there be such a small package of sanitary napkins? Do you think I'm stupid? Don't worry! I won't mess up.
Said."
As he spoke, he gave me a look that said, "Trust me."
Chi Shengxi gritted his teeth and whispered word by word: "That's a tampon, not those weird things in your head."
Tampons?
Lin Cheng was stunned for two seconds, glanced down subconsciously, and smiled even more strangely.
Chi Shengxi: "·····"
Bah! Obscene!
I have to say that the KT coaching staff is still very rigorous in their work. After returning to the hotel, everyone conducted a tactical analysis on their semi-final opponent MAD in the training room.
After all, it is the semi-finals, and there is nothing to be careless about. From the opponent's overall game ideas to the opponent's eye positioning habits, KT's coaching staff has studied everything in advance.
In fact, normally MAD shouldn't cause much trouble to KT, but it's impossible for them to just stop treating MAD as a human being and start studying their opponents in the finals.
Just like the S9 mid-season tournament, according to the state of IG's group stage at that time, it was possible to win TL in 20 games and win 17 games, but the three games that were lost all appeared in the BO5 in the semi-finals.
Although Lin Cheng took the lead in flipping a coin to select his opponent, he was also unambiguous when studying his opponent. He listened carefully to the coaching staff's analysis and gave his own opinions from time to time.
There were no training matches scheduled today. After completing the tactical analysis, Kang Dongxun left time for the players.
Everyone started ranked games and played two games, and after dinner, they each returned to their rooms.
Lin Cheng thought about it, wandered outside Effort's room and knocked on the door.
In the first round against MAD, KT caught the opponent's top laner Shen off guard. Little Death and Mr. Dai were blown up in the bottom lane. At that time, Effort even turned into the Death and showed signs of sending out, all thanks to Lin Cheng's genius.
The Fat Blind Monk brought the situation back.
Later, when choosing his opponents, Effort also expressed that he did not want to meet MAD. Lin Cheng felt that he might have some psychological burden on the European team, so he planned to come over to comfort him.
The little Death God was a little confused when he saw Lin Cheng.
"Ahem! Xiang Hao, I know you only have experience in two world championships. Each time you were eliminated by G2, which caused a bit of a psychological shadow on the European teams."
"Brother, let's be honest! When MSI faced off against MAD this time, your performance did have some minor flaws...but don't be nervous! We will definitely win tomorrow, believe me!"
"Don't have too much pressure. Just fight as usual. Don't be nervous."
After saying that, Lin Cheng patted Effort on the shoulder and stood up to go out.
Effort looked at Lin Cheng's back inexplicably. When he closed the door and went out, Effort turned to look at the paused drama screen on his computer screen.
Just as he was about to hit Enter to continue playing, suddenly Lin Cheng's throaty voice came from outside the door.
"Don't be nervous tomorrow!"
The little assistant was so frightened that he knocked over the water glass next to him.
What is this guy doing?
Crazy?
I wasn't nervous before, but now I really made him nervous.
