Chapter 247: Pigs, snakes, tigers and dogs, go on an expedition! (6000 self-blame guarantee)
Wukesong Stadium.
Orange and white lights alternately converge on the stage.
The host Zhu Zhen walked towards the Snake players, raised the microphone in his hand and shouted:
"Congratulations to Snake, they are the champions of the 2017 LPL Summer Split! Applause to them!"
"We will be crazy together when we win, and we will bear it together when we lose. Let us also give applause to EDG."
"Now we can see that the Snake players on the field are wearing our championship jerseys!"
…
The camera panned across the cheering audience in the front row and settled on the stage.
Li Hao took over the championship jersey from the staff.
The color of the jersey is similar to the Snake uniform, both are black.
The right side of the chest says 'LPL', and the left side says '2017SUMMER.'
On the black hat, "CHAMPION" is written informally in a series of special fonts, which means champion.
Because it is summer, this dress is designed to be relatively thin and slim-fitting.
The size was just right. When Li Hao stuck the hat on his head, he faced a white light from above. His exaggerated appearance seemed to be enchanted, directly suppressing the entire Wukesong Stadium.
The young lady in the front row screamed, making Flandre next to her a little embarrassed.
"Am I too handsome and cool?"
Flandre's mysterious question made the already happy Gangzi laugh again. When he was zipping up, Gangzi didn't forget to hurt him: "Qianzi, it's not time yet. I'll dream about it in bed at night."
"In terms of your appearance, you can only be considered the seventh in our Snake Team."
"Fuck, why is it seventh!"
"Brother Hao, Cuihua, me, Qingsong, posture, ice cream, and then you."
"Why, why are you in front of me?"
"I am stronger and more masculine than you. This is the beauty of masculinity."
"Why is that gesture ahead of me?"
"You can also dress up as a woman with good posture, let the brothers have some fun, can you?"
Hearing this, he smiled with a smile.
Seeing Flando's speechless expression, Gangzi was also happy.
"Tch, who knows how to dress up in women's clothing? There's no technical content."
"I can also cosplay!"
Brother Shengqiang turned around and said to Li Hao: "Brother Hao, come back and I will cosplay a gun sister for you to see."
Hearing this, Li Hao became uneasy: "Don't be impulsive, Qianzi, you can cosplay with someone else."
"Bold!" Gangzi scolded: "You dare to blaspheme Brother Hao's goddess, get out of here!"
"Okay, okay, stop being poor, Liu Qingsong, put your hat on straighter."
Zuo Wu quickly interrupted. Although everyone was very happy, it was still the award ceremony.
Chris and Lin Weixiang looked at each other, feeling a little sympathetic.
Because they were all pushed behind the ice cream.
At the last moment when everyone in the Snake Team changed their uniforms, the host Zhu Zhen said again:
"This scene looks very familiar, because it was Snake who won the championship trophy in the 2017 Spring Split Finals."
"From spring to summer, Snake won consecutive trophies and continued to create brilliance."
"Next, let us invite Mr. Huang, the general manager of the League of Legends LPL division, and Mr. Johnson, the head of Riot China, to come on stage together to honor Snake."
Two middle-aged men walked up with smiles on their faces.
Mr. Huang, who was wearing a blue-gray coat and with a relatively backward hairline, took the long cash medal from the hostess and handed it to everyone in Snake.
It says: RMB1,500,000.
LPL person in charge: "Today's game was very exciting. Both teams performed brilliantly. Congratulations again to Snake for winning this year's 2017 LPL Spring Split."
Everyone laughed at Snake.
Mr. Huang may be a little nervous and turned the summer game into a spring game.
“Snake will compete in S7 as the number one seed, I hope they can achieve great results again in the world arena!
Johnson: "Today's game was great to watch and made me excited. I hope Snake can continue this momentum into the World Championship and win glory for our LPL division."
Zhu Zhen took over the conversation: "Let us put an exclamation mark on today's success."
"Next, Mr. Huang will announce the Summer Finals MVP for us on behalf of the LPL official."
Mr. Huang took the selection results submitted by the etiquette lady and announced loudly:
"Today, the MVP of our League of Legends 2017 Summer Championship is."
"——TheKing~~!"
This MVP is still expected by everyone. Although the teammates also performed well, there were fluctuations in each of the three games.
Li Hao is as stable as a rock.
In addition to the gorgeous statistics, in the three games, whether it was personal operation or supporting roaming tactics, Snake was of greatest help.
In the last game, he achieved a superb record. Amid the public opinion about the "revenge battle" and the "teaching bureau", he decisively targeted the "teaching bureau" and beat the junior students until they made no sound.
After the game, regardless of whether the result is announced or not, he is already the MVP in the hearts of many people.
Therefore, when this ID was shouted out from the official person in charge, the entire BJ Wukesong Stadium burst into thunderous applause!
Under the arrangement of Mr. Snake, Shuangquan led a group of people in the audience to cheer.
The big flag marked 'Snake' was waved and whirred.
There are also many viewers venting their emotions. Without overly flowery language, they can express their excitement by just saying "Awesome".
A bunch of wolfberry powder and Hao Ge powder have a great sense of immersion.
…
Zhu Zhen felt the fiery atmosphere at the scene and said while applauding:
“Congratulations again to TheKing!”
"Next, let Mr. Johnson hand over our MVP trophy to TheKing!"
Hearing this, Johnson raised the MVP trophy and gestured to everyone.
The design of the Finals MVP trophy is exactly the same as the previous regular season MVP trophy, with only slight character changes.
When Li Hao took it over, he still felt that heavy.
To be honest, this trophy looks a lot like a hand-made work. It is a bit crude, but it highlights one reality.
Holding it in your hand is enough for self-defense.
After Li Hao raised the trophy and put it down, he held the bottom of the trophy with both hands, making such a real trophy look like a big cup.
At this time, the barrage and comment area are already having fun:
"Family, this is a large thermos cup, right?!"
"The designer is thoughtful and knows that my Brother Hao's thermos cup is the original one. Now even the MVP trophy is the same model. I'm really afraid that Brother Hao will confuse the trophy with the thermos cup next time."
"Brothers, if you see my brother Hao drinking water with the MVP trophy in the next game, please be merciful. My brother Hao is not swollen, he is just old and dazzled."
"Trophy Designer (smirking): Any master-level design, that's all bullshit! I just made the prototype of Brother Wolfberry's thermos cup a little smoother. This money is really good."
"..."
Zhu Zhen: "After receiving this MVP trophy, what does The King want to say to everyone? What are your expectations for this year's S7?"
Li Hao took the microphone for the second time. Just now the team members had taken turns to give their speeches.
"Thank you again to my teammates and all the fans who support Team Snake."
"Whether it's the trophy in my hand or the Silver Dragon Cup behind me, this is what we have earned with countless efforts and sweat throughout the summer. We all enjoy this moment, and at the same time, we have a greater sense of responsibility."
“The League of Legends Global Finals happens every year, but this opportunity is rare, especially for some players who have passed their golden age. When you don’t know if you have a chance to participate in the next World Championship, you will definitely
Give it your all.”
"We will go all out for this year's S7 and hope to live up to this hard work and love."
…
Backstage at EDG, everyone’s things have almost been packed away.
Everyone occasionally raised their eyes to watch the live interview.
Abu held up his mobile phone and said: "Mingkai, it's confirmed, we are the second seed."
After Snake won the championship, the officials immediately updated the No. 1 and No. 2 seed teams.
The factory director glanced at Abu's cell phone and calmed down.
However, after thinking of something else, his expression became a little heavy.
"Abu, the situation this year is not too optimistic."
"Um."
They are all understanding people, and Abu also understands what the factory director means.
There are quite a few strong teams this year!
Let’s not mention the LPL teams for the moment. The troika in the LCK was already terrifying, but now they have another Dragon Ball, which almost overturned SKT.
If Smeb hadn't invited Ma Run to take over, the LCK's No. 1 seed would probably have gone to him.
You can imagine how tragic the S7 World Championship will be.
There are too many strong teams. You can imagine how difficult it will be for EDG to fulfill its dream of competing for the championship this year.
Abu relaxed his brows and said with relief: "Don't think so much, anything is possible."
"Every year, there are promising teams that win, there are often dark horses coming out, and the next version has not been updated yet."
"What's more, this is an e-sports competition, there are too many surprises, and no one can guarantee anything."
"You have been fighting for Mingkai for so many years, so I don't need to say anything more."
Hearing this, Claire smiled.
Abu watched the factory director turn around to pack his backpack, feeling a surge in his heart.
Abu frowned. He looked calm, but in fact it was just an appearance.
Maybe he is more worried than the factory director.
Not only is EDG's road this year difficult, but the road ahead will also be difficult.
The factory director is already considered an ‘old guy’ in the field of e-sports.
I have been resting for such a long time this year and I am already feeling tired.
Will we still be able to fight next year?
Next season, EDG may face greater challenges.
Abu clenched his fists and glanced secretly at the team members backstage.
S7, everyone must be in good condition.
"Let's go back."
"Walk."
"..."
On the other side, there was a different atmosphere backstage at Snake. Everyone was still celebrating, and there was a burst of joy.
After returning to the backstage and getting rid of those flashing lights on the stage, everyone felt much more relaxed.
Zuo Wu took a lot more photos, paired them with a short composition he had prepared a long time ago, and sent them out directly to grab some attention.
Below the Snake homepage.
The photo of everyone holding the cup was marked: "Summer Split Champion, thank you for everyone's hard work."
Behind, there is a photo of Li Hao holding up the MVP trophy.
This photo was tagged by Zuo Wu: "Mvp! Brother Hao is the strongest and most handsome today!"
Below that is a long string of sensational text.
Zuo Wu detailed the difficulties encountered this summer and how fortunate the members of the Snakes team were for this championship.
The article is very long, but to sum up the connotation is: the designers are causing trouble for us, but the Snake team still won the championship with its tenacious struggle.
The essay is quite good and seems quite inspiring.
It didn’t take long for the news that Snake won the Summer Crown to become a hot search topic on all major platforms.
Below these news, many fans are leaving messages and interacting.
[One thing to say, Snake is really strong! I feel like I have a good chance this year!]
[This year is the best time, you must rush! Where can you find a mid laner like Brother Wolfberry? If you don’t catch the tail of this peak, it will be difficult to have such an opportunity later.]
[Correct answer upstairs, Brother Hao was injured in the spring after S6 won the championship. I thought he was dead. Unexpectedly, he came back from injury and was forced to play again this year! This is already a miracle. Brother Hao is from the Snake Team
Absolute core, next season, even if you think about it, Brother Hao's dominance will decline, and then the dominance of this peak snake team will basically not be seen again. Although I don't want to see such a situation, but this is
fact.]
[Brothers, get ready to grab tickets at S7! This year I will witness Brother Wolfberry’s final peak. As a Wolfberry fan, I want to cheer for him at the scene!]
[Woooooooo, Snake, let’s win another championship, so that our LPL brother Li’s honor will surpass that of brother Li next door!]
…
Shuangquan, who was waving the flag on the field, also squeezed into Snake's backstage.
"I've already made a reservation. Let's go out and have some fun tonight."
“BJ roast duck!”
Zuo Wu shouted from the side: "Eat and drink whatever you want, Young Master Shuang will pay for it tonight!"
"I don't pay the bill, the snake always pays!"
"Hahaha, let's go and pack everything."
"..."
The global finals will start on September 23.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Snake. The teams that are directly shortlisted for the group stage will have to wait until October 5th to compete.
And that day will also officially usher in the opening ceremony of S7!
Therefore, they will have more than a month to adjust and train.
At the dinner party in the evening, Zuo Wu also explained the next arrangements.
First, everyone will take a few days off, and then enter the training phase.
Even though I won the championship, I can’t relax.
If I don't maintain good condition for more than a month, I will definitely get beaten in the World Championships.
There are already many such examples.
In S6, because Snake won the championship, the mountain of blame collapsed.
But once S7 is overturned, angry fans will rebuild the blame mountain at any time.
…
At around 11 o'clock in the evening, everyone returned to the hotel.
"Brother Hao, what are you planning to do next?"
Chris asked with a smile.
Li Hao responded while pressing the elevator floor:
"I'll play with you guys at BJ for a few days. After the bubbling competition, there will be an expedition ceremony, which I definitely have to attend. Then I'm going to go home. Don't worry, it won't take long."
Zuo Wu waved his hands repeatedly, saying that it didn't matter if he stayed at home for two more days.
Qianzi suddenly became energetic: "Brother Hao, you go home for a blind date, right? I heard you say it last time."
"There are indeed blind dates, but..."
Li Hao smiled: "I guess we can't get along."
"Oh? What do you mean?"
"I won't tell my parents and then go back suddenly. They didn't check it out in advance and didn't have time to arrange a blind date."
"So, you understand."
"High!" Gangzi gave a thumbs up.
Lin Weixiang also praised: "Brother Hao is Brother Hao!"
"Yes, uncle and aunt were all shown off!"
"a ha ha ha."
Everyone seemed to be very happy, but when Li Hao walked out of the elevator door, he didn't have eyes on the back of his head, but he couldn't see the people behind him nodding to each other or even smiling evilly.
Cuihua's mouth was covered by Flando and she couldn't say a word.
…
September 2nd, the first battle of the bubbling competition!
It’s still Wukesong Stadium.
IG,OMG,WE,RNG.
Four teams will compete for the third spot in the S competition.
Because Snake won the M private championship, the third seed in the LPL division will benefit this time, and they do not need to enter the playoffs.
The LCK division next door is different. Regardless of whether it is SSG, KT or whoever reaches the World Championship, they need to compete with a total of 12 teams from other divisions in the finals.
Riot Games has made quite a few changes this time. In 2016, there wasn’t even a play-in format.
Riot also wants to take advantage of the current World Championship to expand the league's influence again.
It was still four o'clock in the afternoon, and the IG and OMG teams entered the first round of the bubble competition.
IG decisively defeated OMG 3:0, and 59e's dream of returning to the World Championship once again came to nothing.
On September 3, IG played against WE.
At nearly eight o'clock in the evening, this round of bubbling competition entered a fierce stage, and fans from both groups were extremely nervous.
2:2, the final decisive moment!
Everyone worked hard for the S7 spot.
After the fierce battle that lasted 45 minutes and 34 seconds, the 60e people cheered.
On the stage, 957 gave Laundry Detergent a big hug.
Kandi took a long breath. The jungler on the field seemed to be more tired than the jungler off the field.
WE had the last laugh, and Coach Hongmi was also pumping his fists excitedly in the background.
However, there is only one last game left before the S7 spot.
On September 3rd, WE versus RNG!
In the first game, Xiye's Kassadin was infinitely super, Xiao Ming's Luo and Uzi's Verus used the incense burner system, but this game was targeted by various methods and exploded. In less than 30 minutes, WE won the first place
Bureau.
After RNG regained a victory in the second game, WE won the third game.
In the fourth game, RNG not only did not mess up, but resisted the pressure and played a super fast pace. In less than 26 minutes, it tied the big score to 2:2 with a head ratio of 9:3.
I thought this series was intense enough, but the last game was beyond everyone's expectations.
At 59 minutes and 26 seconds, the head-to-head ratio on the field was 7:14, and WE was the team with the head-to-head lead.
However, WE was demolished on three highlands, and even the incisor tower was gone.
RNG also lost two highlands.
This means that a wave of team battles will determine a place in the S competition!
At the contestants' table, whether it was Uzi, Xiaohu, or Xiye's brother-in-law, everyone in the group had serious expressions on their faces.
After the crystals on both sides are resurrected and the troop line is pushed out.
The dragon team battle is about to begin!
At 60 minutes and 6 seconds, in the studio, as the team battle progressed, Miller's commentary voice was almost hoarse.
Xiaohu's aircraft achieved full output in the most critical team battle and scored four kills!
Miller shouted out the classic words: "Who can fight with a sword and stand on horseback, but I am the Tiger General!"
On the post-match data panel, only Xiaohu had a positive record of 7/1/4, and everyone else had a negative record. WE was still in the lead by the end of the game. There were 12 kills in the game, 11 of which were related to Xiaohu.
Xiaohu's damage is as high as 95,000!!
RNG also successfully won the third seed in S7 because of Xiaohu's explosive performance in this game!
After the game, Uzi jumped up and hugged Xiaohu fiercely.
Pigs and snakes are all here, but tigers and dogs don’t want to be absent!
At this moment, the Great Tiger God thought of someone in his mind.
So, he tried to hug Xiao Ming with one arm and Wu Zi with the other, with a chilling look on his face.
At this moment, it was as if he had turned into a cold machine.
"——The ace pilot applies to fight!"
…
The barrage has exploded:
"Ninety-five thousand! Damn it! The first person under the wolfberry!"
"Tiger 90,000~!!"
"I'm an RNG fan. I watched it for an hour. Oh my god, it scared me to death!"
"RNG fans cried to death today, the big tiger is so fierce! We also have our own Wolfberry Brother!"
"No more beeps, the sword has reached the sky above S7!"
"..."
Compared to the joy of the RNG fans at the scene, today there is only regret for 60e.
There was a chance to win, and the odds of winning were very high.
Who knew that Xiaohu would suddenly be so fierce!
In the WE player seat, everyone was very disappointed and confused.
The S competition is held in China, so close.
But, it’s so close.
Coach Hongmi also sighed deeply in the background.
For WE, their S7 season has ended.
When Coach Hongmi thought of the box of Okamoto on the computer desk, his brows furrowed deeply.
There is not much time left for WE.
…
At Wukesong Stadium, Snake, EDG and others were also amazed in the background.
"Hey, little tiger is so awesome!"
"Carry RNG into the finals!"
"Who did Xiaohu learn this airplane from?"
The factory director glanced at Li Hao.
Li Hao smiled and shook his head: "He is fierce to begin with, and it has nothing to do with me."
"I am an old mid laner and I have no competitiveness in S7."
"Haha, even the dogs don't believe it."
Li Hao smiled again, and then looked at the scene on the court with emotion in his heart.
What was supposed to come, came anyway.
Because there were activities later, WE on the field was asked to leave by the staff before he could recover.
…
"What will be held next is the S7's expedition ceremony!"
Zhu Zhen walked onto the stage again and shouted loudly.
"Let us welcome the three teams representing the LPL region in the 2017 League of Legends Global Finals!"
"They are the number one seed Snake!"
"Second seed EDG!"
"The third seed RNG!"
Under the spotlight on the stage, there are bright smiles and high-spirited faces.
At this time, the two-minute recitation of the expedition words entered. Although the voice delivered to Wukesong Stadium was gentle and impassioned, it was still awkward when it should be.
They are all content about fighting and fighting.
Brother Shengqiang whispered to each other and whispered in Li Hao's ear:
"Brother Hao, I suddenly feel that Zuo Wu's essays are more advanced."
After the players from the three teams put on their uniforms, Zhu Zhen picked up the microphone again and shouted at the top of his voice:
"I wish the players in the LPL region another great success in the 2017 Global Finals!"
"Come on S7!"
"Defend the glory that belongs to the LPL division!"
…
The tens of thousands of spectators at the scene gave huge applause and cheers.
The background sound of Wukesong Stadium sounded again:
"2017, heroes go beyond!"
…
…
…
