Chapter 484 His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire!
"Is this... the venue?"
After landing, everyone in UR walked out of the airport under the protection of ROG security. Xu Xiu took a look at the somewhat dilapidated airport and spoke with some confusion.
"Normally, development has stalled."
Xu Ruoguang carried UR's bag and calmly stepped into the bus prepared by Fist.
"This place once had its glory, but if we were satisfied with it, we would naturally stop developing. Now, we will naturally be abandoned by the times."
"It's the same with professional players, Xiu'er."
Xu Xiu scratched his head,
"Brother Guang, I am no longer a child."
"Your brother will always be your brother."
Xu Ruoguang replied calmly.
KKoma got in the car and started her daily routine.
"Everyone, don't rush out after arriving at the hotel. Take a good rest first. Although the time difference is not much, it will be a bit unaccustomed to it."
"Ruoguang, have you brought Wangzi? Give everyone a bottle, and give me a bottle too."
Xu Ruoguang, who was called, took the Wang Zai from the staff and distributed it to his teammates.
"Really, if you want to drink, can't you ask them to bring a few more boxes for you?"
"Your drink tastes better."
kkoma joked with a smile.
"Who is your opponent this time?"
deft looked more serious and asked.
"EDG."
There is light in the eyes of the fields,
"I never thought I would have another day to play EDG."
"EDG..."
Deft looked a little complicated.
He actually played in EDG before, and EDG at that time was invincible in China.
Overseas...except for the MSI of S5, other S games...don't mention it.
At that time, deft became passive when it came to international competitions and directly transformed into a North Korean pilot.
S7 chose to leave because they saw no hope of winning the championship in EDG.
EDG can be regarded as a relatively iconic stage in life for deft.
After all, I got the MSI of S5.
"EDG is actually very strong this year!"
Speaking of this, KKoma's expression became serious.
"Actually, after the LPL finished the regular season this year, I was more optimistic about FPX."
"FPX's system is very unique even in my opinion."
"But it was quite unexpected. Scout performed somewhat well in the finals. Both Enchantresses played a greater role than FPX's midfielder. They also played Killer Book and won the game by force."
KKoma applauded with emotion.
"Scout, you're not relaxing either."
He seemed to remember something and hammered his wrist.
"By the way, Ruoguang, Scout asked me to bring you a message. He said that MSI will give you a good beating."
The corner of Xu Ruoguang's mouth twitched, "It's okay, you said this to him. Li Sang Hyuk has told me several times."
"Still with Sang Hyuk!"
kkoma is all living in Bengbu,
"Don't you find that Scout gets upset every time you mention Xiang He?"
"Otherwise, where would he get the motivation? Just put some pressure on him."
Xu Ruoguang picked up Wangzai and took an elegant sip.
"What a devil who plays with people's hearts."
Comment by Xu Xiurui.
Canyon glanced at him silently, thought about it, and still didn't say anything.
Brother Guang doesn't know where he will go after this year's fight. If he leaves UR, Xiu'er, won't you cry for father and mother?
When I arrived at the hotel arranged by Riot Games, I found that not many other players came.
Xu Ruoguang took a general look and found that few people he recognized, so he chose to go to bed directly.
At about three o'clock in the morning, there was a loud banging on the door, causing Xu Ruoguang to open his eyes in a daze.
Suddenly, he smelled a strong smell in the air.
Xu Ruoguang:?
He quickly put on his clothes and opened the door. What he saw was KKoma with an anxious look on his face, and Tian Ye who was struggling to open the door next door beside him.
Xu Ruoguang:???
"What's wrong?"
"There is smoke coming from Xiu'er's room, come and help and open his door!"
Xu Ruoguang's face was shocked.
Damn, Xu Xiu, what are you doing?
Without hesitation, he took off his coat and wet it, ran to Xu Xiu's door, kicked it, and opened the door!
Xu Ruoguang exercises a lot after training on weekdays, and even runs in the morning.
The big man, who is over 1.8 meters tall, has obvious muscles, which are now put to good use.
boom!
The door was knocked open, and Xu Ruoguang immediately saw Xu Xiu sleeping soundly on the bed, and the smoking charger on the bedside table.
kkoma had already contacted the hotel management to cut off the power. Xu Ruoguang kicked the charger away and went up to give Xu Xiu two big mouths.
"Wake up! Wake up!"
He was really afraid that Xu Xiu was poisoned by the smoke.
Fortunately, the worst did not happen, and the disgraced Xu Xiu opened her eyes in a daze.
"Guang...Brother Guang?"
Xu Ruoguang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go to the hospital."
Xu Ruoguang didn't say anything more to him, picked up Xu Xiu and walked out.
After a lot of trouble, it wasn't until after five o'clock in the morning that UR returned to the hotel from the hospital.
The full picture of the matter also became clear through the exchange of information between everyone.
According to Xu Xiu, he went back to his room to rest and then put his phone there to charge.
The result may be that the charger leaked electricity after being used for too long, accidentally igniting the toilet paper placed on the bedside table.
Because a large amount of smoke was detected, the smoke alarm was triggered directly. However, because it was in disrepair, the water was sprinkled for a while and then stopped. Not only did it fail to extinguish the fire, but the smoke became even bigger.
The most exaggerated thing is that Xu Xiu didn't even wake up.
Then, after studying the tactics, KKoma went out to get some food. He smelled something unexpectedly, notified the hotel to cut off the power and knocked on Xu Ruoguang's door.
You will know what happens next.
[Note: This incident sounds outrageous, but it is true. Xu Xiu personally said that there was a fire in the hotel where she stayed. Canyon’s comment afterwards was: Xu Xiu almost died, and the fire started. Xu Xiu
Still sleeping.]
A group of people sat at the door of the hospital in disgrace, looking at the sky in silence.
Xu Ruoguang was quite speechless,
"No, since you earn so much, can't you just replace the charger if it doesn't work? I'll buy you a box when you get back."
The disgraced Xu Xiu smiled shyly.
"Thank you, Brother Guang."
"By the way, what brand did you use?"
Xu Ruoguang asked suddenly.
"Ah? Samsung."
Tian Ye and Ming Kai looked at each other, and Ming Kai suddenly realized.
"Samsung, it's okay."
Xu Xiu:?
"Let's use Apple from now on. If you really can't use Huawei like me."
Xu Ruoguang said seriously,
"You can't control Samsung, kid."
Riot staff accompanied me throughout the whole process, and I couldn’t bear it anymore.
The next day, a piece of news with an extremely exaggerated title sparked discussions around the world.
[The UR team had a fire in the middle of the night, and mid laner Showmaker almost had an accident!]
The news topic is exactly what is happening today.
The most annoying thing is that Riot Games responded below.
Riot: it's real
Fans immediately felt outrageous.
"Arnie, what kind of shabby hotel is this?"
"Fire Man kills Showmaker alone offline?"
"This isn't funny, bro."
"Haren, be careful EDG."
"Don't be afraid, EDG is the orthodox version of Guodian and has real dragon protection."
"EDG has Ah Shui, just use Ah Shui to put out the fire."
"Hahaha."
After finally getting a good sleep, Xu Ruoguang was starving when he got up and went directly to the restaurant to find something to eat.
There are already many players here, as well as many old acquaintances.
"Hi Emporer, I heard that something happened to you yesterday. Are you okay now?"
After seeing him, Ah P waved excitedly, and when Xu Ruoguang came to him, he asked worriedly.
"I'm okay. To be honest, I really didn't expect such a thing to happen."
Xu Ruoguang came to the G2 table carelessly, saw an empty seat and sat down, complaining speechlessly.
"Hahaha."
Ap laughed loudly,
"It's good that nothing happened to you."
"Long time no see, Lucas, I heard you switched to AD?"
Perkz's real name is Lucas.
Xu Ruoguang nodded casually and asked curiously.
"how do you feel?"
Ap suddenly became energetic and said, "To be honest bro, ad is much simpler than I thought, and we now have a mid laner who is stronger than perkz, caps, come and say hello to my brother Emporer."
Caps sitting opposite him smiled shyly.
"Hello, Emporer player."
"Hello."
Xu Ruoguang smiled and stretched out his hand to shake his hand.
Caps was very young at this time and could almost be said to be at the peak of his career.
In today's European and American competitions, it is almost a fault.
Some people have already called him a fig leaf for the mid laners in the European and American regions.
There are only two kinds of mid laners in Europe and the United States, one is S9 caps, and the other is other mid laners.
In fact, caps performance in the original S9 is indeed the only one in Europe.
In other LEC and LCS mid laners, the mid laner is too lazy to face the Koreans.
But in this year, Caps successively defeated the then BDD Xu Xiu faker.
This is very exaggerated.
Even the last one, Jian Huang Jensen, who was called the new generation king of Europe, was not able to perform such a suppressive performance.
Jianhuang and caps are two extremes.
Jian Huang is undoubtedly a grumpy old man. He was once banned from the European server for three times because of trolling, and he can be called a European stick.
But Caps is different. Even though he plays very wildly in the game, in private Caps is a very gentle person who loves to laugh.
Boys who love to laugh usually have good luck.
Xu Ruoguang looked at the other people at this table.
Jankos, the little wild sheep, was taking pictures of him with his cell phone.
Assistant mikyx is an old G2 player, he is from Zhengou Banner, and in the game Pike played something that was both beautiful and authentic.
"Where's the order?"
Xu Ruoguang realized something was wrong.
Where did my bean curd wunder go?
Out of line!
"Wunder? Don't worry about him. You are sitting in his seat now. He can just stand when he comes back later."
Ap waved his hand.
"Good guy."
Xu Ruoguang's mouth twitched.
"I'll let you see my Xia after the competition starts. I'm serious."
Ap laughed loudly.
"Don't worry, I'll let KKoma move it for you when the time comes."
Xu Ruoguang joked.
"Oh, we are friends, you won't move my Xia, right?"
Ap wailed, which was very funny.
Xu Ruoguang's mood also became better.
Being with such happy players always makes people feel happy.
"Jankos, stop taking secret photos, it's too rude to take secret photos in front of others!"
Ap sternly stopped Jankos' behavior, covered Jankos' mouth, and said sorry.
"I'm sorry, we were a little too stupid in the jungle."
Xu Ruoguang:......
"It's okay, jankos, let's take a photo."
He waved his hand and smiled.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Jankos became visibly excited and pried Ah P's hand away.
"Really? Are you sure?!"
"Wuhu!"
He turned on his cell phone and came to Xu Ruoguang's side.
After the two took a group photo, Ah P just shrugged.
"He is your die-hard fan. Maybe you don't know that you have been ranked first for four consecutive years on the list of top laners that European junglers want to work with."
Is there such a list?
Xu Ruoguang was a little confused, "Um, thank you?"
"You're welcome, Emporer. I will give you all my tickets every time. This year's World Championship will be in Europe. If we play in the European server then, will you join me in double queue? You will definitely do it!"
Jankos grabbed his hand and asked expectantly.
After struggling to pull out his hand, Xu Ruoguang said uncertainly.
"Maybe?"
"Wuhu~!"
Jankos jumped up in celebration.
Xu Ruoguang looked at Ah P.
"He is like this, the funniest jungler in Europe."
Ap said calmly.
"The funniest? The funniest!? Farke! I am the most powerful European jungler, Farke and Lucas!"
Jankos immediately raised the universal hand gesture.
In fact, he really wasn't bragging.
In Europe, jankos are lambs.
There is no doubt about his ability. When it comes to the strongest jungler in Europe, Xiaoyang is definitely on the list, and he is very high.
In this year's S9, G2 can be said to completely control the thunder and lightning in Europe. You can play however you want, and you can win no matter how you play. What stands out is that it is a crushing game.
Just as RNG was strong before the S8 World Championship, G2 in S9 was just as strong in Europe.
In fact, if G2 hadn't lost to FPX in the S game this year, it would have been a Grand Slam.
Oh, I forgot, FPX’s S9 championship has been confiscated, so G2 is indeed a grand slam.
While Xu Ruoguang was chatting and laughing with his acquaintances from G2, in a corner, a player with an Asian face couldn't help but clenched his fists.
The team uniform he wears shows his identity.
DFM.
MSI finals, LJL division qualification holder.
"Si, Si Guoyi!"
Evi, DFM’s top laner, the crab’s unique skill.
At this time, he is clenching his fist. [Super force]
"How dare you get in close contact with such a terrifying man, chatting and laughing, G2! Red Bean Paste Si Guoyi!"
He gritted his teeth and looked at Xu Ruoguang in the distance.
"Ku, Kusuo! Just looking at his figure, my body has already started to tremble?!"
For players like Evi and players of Xu Ruoguang's level, it is truly terrifying.
Not to mention anything else, Xu Ruoguang's contract alone can buy at least four teams in LJL, and there are still some left.
What's more, the top laner of the four-time crown has such terrifying results!
"Tooth white..."
The ADC in the team couldn't help but wailed,
"Do we want to compete on the same stage with players like that? Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl. How can we repair this? Is this an opponent we can defeat now?! What is the difference between this and Kaede Rukawa directly playing in the NBA!"
"Don't give up! Sansan!"
Assist with clenching fists. [Similarly super strong]
"The so-called men are those who say no to the impossible. We carry all the hopes of LJL!"
"For LJL's Minna, for coach Kawada-san, and for the LJL fans who have high hopes for us, we must find a way to move forward! This is our fighting will! Don't stop, Yamayama-san!"
"well said!"
Evi nodded heavily.
"Even gods can be killed!"
"We are still far behind the LCK and LPL, but I believe that one day, we can be as strong as them and let LJL shine in the world championship!"
"One day, the Sakura in my hometown will finally open up, and we will win!"
"but!"
He paused,
"First of all, we must break out of the finals, otherwise we won't even be able to meet such a terrifying man."
"Do you feel sorry? I do!"
"Even if I fail, I still want to die in the hands of that man."
Evi said word by word.
He actually knows in his heart that the current DFM is far behind those top teams.
For the viewers of LPL and LCK, if the No. 1 seed stinks at the top eight and stinks at the top 16, it will undoubtedly be a shame among shames.
But such results are enough for DFM, the No. 1 seed in LJL, to be happy enough to fly.
After taking a deep look at Xu Ruoguang, who was still smiling and talking to G2, Evi left the restaurant with the DFM players.
In the afternoon, they will start competing in the qualifying rounds.
The Imperial Chariot, the Empire’s most dangerous crab, is ready to go!
The play-in rounds went very quickly. During this period, UR had appointments with many teams for training matches, but not EDG.
The same goes for EDG.
The king does not see the king.
Both sides feel that the final opponent for MSI this time is the other side, so it is naturally impossible for them to expose their tactics in a training match.
In fact, kkoma is relatively indifferent, but the pressure of public opinion on EDG is greater than that of UR, so they really can't fight.
Why is there pressure?
Because of this year's EDG, a lot of people were offended.
First, they offended IG.
Although Uzi has arrived at IG, no one knows how much gas he can have in the tank for a veteran whose career is not very long.
Compared to Ah Shui, who has clearly entered his peak period not long ago, Uzi is really too old.
Secondly, they offended RNG.
This year's RNG is probably sent.
Except for ADC Qiqi, even playing A still performed well.
The retirement of Xiangguo and letme directly caused RNG to suffer a heavy blow.
Especially the upper unit.
Although Letme is a toilet paper top laner, RNG really can't find many top laners more suitable for RNG now.
After searching around, I finally found Tam and Lang Xing from the Legend of Jade Sword.
What? Posture?
Let's put it this way, if the stance mid laner is still considered a little tiger, then his top laner is not as good as pandac.
Because of this, when facing RNG in the playoffs, EDG simply took away RNG three to one.
If Qiqi hadn't taken out a handful of rats and walked around in three bursts to win one, RNG's BO5 would have been directly shaved off by EDG.
So now Huang Za is full of malice towards the prosperous Zhu Za.
"It's just MSI. The way Zongzi climaxes is so funny. Those who didn't know better thought EDG had already won the S-game!"
"Indeed, and EDG obviously can't beat UR. I really don't like to brag about UR. This is obviously not a team of the same level."
"To put it bluntly, I am a FPX fan, and I think it is more stable to go to FPX."
The pigs were all amused.
"I recognize Huang Za's ability to recognize his father."
"You are your mother's FPX fan. I just read your post. Your last post was [How many points can RNG get into the World Championship this summer?]. Are you telling me that you are a FPX fan?"
"Okay, okay, support the righteous historian!"
"Huang Za has finally turned into what he hates the most. He used to be a crossbreed team, but now he starts to support UR. You guys look really ugly."
The play-in rounds are played very quickly. There is no BO3 now, only BO1.
Audiences who did not pay attention to European, American and wild card teams before also ate a lot of Western food and were full.
Xu Ruoguang would say that there is really no problem in this qualifying round.
Without Western food, where can the audience get the nutrients they lack?
And in this final round, the empire’s most vicious crab went crazy!
In fact, Evi's talent can be said to be one of the best in LJL. He once reached the top 50 in the Korean server, and he can be regarded as a very powerful top laner.
"Evi chooses TP here! Sbarasi, perfect decision!"
"Ta-ta-kai! Touch Ta-ta-kai!"
"EEEEEEEVI! Use this fist to open the door to the MSI main event! We are the strongest wild cards!"
The Japanese commentator was full of passion and shouted loudly.
"White teeth, white teeth! The opponent's counterattack is so strong. Is this the MSI team? Si Guoyi!"
"But Mu Da! Evi smiled again. Look at his smile. He has grasped the hope of life in the infinite death!"
"Break through it all, DFM! Follow your dreams!"
"Yoshi!"
“Perfect control!”
"It's over! Let's congratulate DFM!"
"We have advanced to the main competition!"
He looked up to the sky, clenched his fists and roared.
Although some people may say that entering the main event of MSI is a mess.
But in fact, both for DFM and LJL.
This is really a difficult challenge.
Because even among the wild cards, compared to those old wild cards, LJL is not a strong one.
Although the game atmosphere in their country is very enthusiastic, unfortunately most of them are on the console.
The configuration of their Internet cafe is extremely low, and it is more of a temporary residence for some homeless people. Naturally, it is difficult for online games like League of Legends to become popular.
But, soon, bad luck befell DFM.
Because their opponent in the first round of the knockout round is the undoubted seed team to win this MSI.
Teams from LCK, the world champion team in last year’s S8... UR,
Bad news: I encountered UR.
Good news: long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.
On the first day of the race, the Japanese commentators were equally enthusiastic.
This time, there was a beautiful commentator beside him.
"Okay, welcome everyone to the first match on the first day of the 2019 League of Legends Mid-Season Championship. The match that will be held soon is between our DFM team and the terrifying UR team!"
"I am today's commentator Xiaolin Weiyu!"
"Hello everyone, my name is Asuka Airi."
The beautiful commentator smiled and nodded.
"Hey! Next, let's take a look at the data pentacles of both players."
The male commentator said seriously.
The next moment, Evi's final makeup photo and his data hexagram were cut out.
The male commentator couldn't help but praise.
"Wow! You can actually have a four-point level in team battles, and even have three points in the laning, and the development ability is also very good. You are truly worthy of Evi, well done!"
"Hey~, then, let's take a look at the data of the opposing Emporer player."
Asuka Airi smiled slightly, and the Japanese director cut out Xu Ruoguang's makeup photo and his data hexagram.
"Kakuyi~"
Asuka couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed.
Even if you look at the aesthetics of Japanese people who like long hair, you will still think Xu Ruoguang is very handsome.
However, the male commentator was more concerned about the data hexagram.
Sweat was already streaming down his forehead and he clenched his fists.
"Is this the terrifying power of His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire?!"
He took a deep breath.
"Look, Emporer's strength!"
"Evi, can you do this?!"
"This is the strength of the world's strongest top laner. Can Evi withstand this pressure? It's really difficult!"
He spoke excitedly.
"Hey, hey, does anyone want to try what it's like to play against him? Is there anyone in this world who can defeat such a person? If you can, come and give it a try!"
"This is the strength of His Majesty the Supreme Emperor!"
