On the way home, Hao Ma carried the seafood and walked briskly.
"You just thought of asking this now?"
Li Hao glanced sideways, and suddenly felt that the two uncles and aunts just now seemed a bit familiar, as if they had met them somewhere, but he couldn't remember.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
"Tomorrow, we'll go back to Magic City after lunch."
"In such a hurry?"
"Yeah." Li Hao nodded and continued: "The World Championships are coming soon. In the next period of training, we must maintain good condition."
"I don't know if you understand, Mom, but this World Championship is of great significance to our region."
"What's wrong with this?"
"Many foreigners come to our country to play competitions. As a host, it is definitely unjustifiable to have no results."
"Although your father is a pig butcher, his skill in killing pigs is not bad, and the face of our ancestors has not been lost. No matter what line of work you do, you must do it well, at least not worse than your father."
Hao's mother said earnestly: "Haozi, train hard and try to get good results."
Li Hao understood what his mother meant. The skill of killing pigs should not be lost anywhere...
After returning home, Hao's father was sharpening his knife.
"How about it?"
"It's the first time I've met him. I'm definitely satisfied. After all, he has my genes and Haozi's face makes people like him."
Hearing what Hao Ma said, the pig butcher smiled disdainfully and rubbed his hand on the blade of the knife.
"Of course, that's not important."
"You still have to take care of two children. If the children don't get along with each other, everything else is in vain."
"That's true."
"We can make some arrangements during the Chinese New Year this year. We are all acquaintances anyway."
"OK."
"I hope this can happen. He is floating outside and needs a home, right?"
Dad Hao: "Everything you said is right."
Listening to the two people conspiring loudly, Li Hao sat on the small bench and rolled his eyes.
it is as expected.
I went to buy some groceries today, and even the girl’s parents met.
This process goes really fast.
Baby cabbage is dangerous, no wonder my uncle is so nervous.
However, when he thought of the people in the club, Li Hao's eyes narrowed slightly.
Hahaha
Not long after, Li Hao came to his parents.
"Ms. mist mist"
Accompanied by the sound of sharpening knives, the three of them chatted as usual.
Mom and Dad always talked about the most common things, lamenting the passage of time, talking about what Li Hao was like before and what he is like now.
Later, Hao's father sharpened the knife, and the blade glowed white under the light.
"It's right to go back to training early. That's your profession, and you have to do it well."
“If you want to achieve success, you must be well prepared.”
"It's like killing a pig. I sharpen the knife so that it can be killed easily and smoothly." At this point, the pig butcher fiddled with the blade of the knife and raised the corners of his mouth.
"Professional competition, the same principle."
"Especially this year, when facing foreign teams, if you are a knife, it must be twice as sharp."
Li Hao smiled and understood the three meanings.
…
The next evening, wait for Li Hao to return to Moshi.
The whole city was still bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, and every building was covered with a layer of light golden light. Vehicles were constantly coming and going, shuttling through the city.
"Young man, here we are."
"OK, thanks."
…
The sound of closing the car door sounded, and Li Hao then walked into the Snake base.
Chris, who was sitting by the door with the team data from each major competition area in his hand, was the first to notice.
Chris opened the door.
"Brother Hao, are you back now? Isn't it too soon?"
"Well, it's not long before the World Championships, and I always feel uneasy staying at home."
Seeing Li Hao squinting his eyes and scanning his body, combined with his strange tone of voice, Chris immediately understood that the matter was exposed.
However, as a good brother, Chris will not betray others easily.
This is like the iron gate he closed back then. He, Chris, is a trustworthy person.
"Brother Hao, it has nothing to do with me."
Chris removed himself first and then said:
"You should ask Flandre."
The banana boat flips over at will, without any ambiguity.
Gangzi, who was going downstairs, saw Chris whispering to Li Hao and immediately took off his clothes:
"Brother Hao, the gun is the initiator."
Liu Qingsong: "I saw Brother Gun once wrote a message."
Cat slave Zuo Wu recounted the past: "When we went to Jinling, your father asked us for a contact number so that he could not find you in an emergency and could still contact others."
"Flandre lives in the same dormitory with you. He volunteered to do so."
After saying that, Zuo Wu went to feed the ice cream, as if he was just an outsider and everything had nothing to do with him.
Lin Weixiang raised his eyebrows with a dumbfounded expression on his face: "Brother Hao, I don't know anything."
Posture: "I remember Xuanjun's original words, there is even a recording."
"listen."
Zhi Zhi took out his mobile phone and saw a very noisy recording, but it seemed that only part of it was captured.
In the recording, it is indeed Flandre’s voice:
"Brother Hao is going to go home secretly, haha. Let's tell our uncle and aunt the news first. The blind date over there must have been arranged. He will be surprised when the time comes."
"We have done our best for Brother Hao's life events."
"As good brothers, we need to give Brother Hao a surprise!"
Behind, there was Zuo Wu's voice: "That's necessary."
The cat slave's butt was indeed unclean. Li Hao glanced at Zuo Wu who was feeding him ice cream downstairs. He had already been stabbed in the back by a noble lady from the capital.
I have a recording, which is the most outrageous.
Of course, the recording he heard must have been processed.
Li Hao didn't want to pursue anything, he just wanted to talk to Flando, the mastermind.
After all, the other party has been paying attention to major events in his life.
Li Hao met Cuihua again, and Cuihua looked calm: "Brother Hao, is the matter at your house over?"
"Let's call it a day."
"Zhanran, where is Flandre?"
"He was still in the dormitory just now."
When Li Hao opened the dormitory door, the Holy Spear who had just seen the "War on Top" suddenly stood up on the bed.
"Brother Haohao!"
"Aren't you coming back tomorrow?"
"It's nothing. I want to train in advance, but you haven't gone home yet."
Li Hao smiled and asked: "Have you eaten tonight?"
"without."
"It just so happens that I haven't eaten either. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
"Qianzi has been worried about these past two days."
Flandre smiled coquettishly and said awkwardly: "Brother Hao, is this the Hongmen Banquet?"
"Who was invited to the Hongmen Banquet?"
"Liu Bang."
"Liu Bang finally became emperor, what are you afraid of?"
…
As night falls, neon lights flash on both sides of the magical city. The city at night is still exuding vitality. Looking around, skyscrapers are lined up in rows, towering into the dark night.
After eating at a barbecue restaurant, Brother Shengqian was still in a daze.
He never expected that Li Hao actually just invited him to dinner.
Li Hao didn't mention any such messy things as snitching, pranks, and backstabbing, as if they didn't happen.
Flandre recalled that while eating just now, Brother Hao had been talking to him about this World Championship and previous competitions.
"Gunzi, are you free tonight?"
"Yes." He replied in a daze.
Li Hao smiled and said: "When I was leaving, you said I would come back and then we would double queue together, right?"
"Yes, I also said I wanted to play mid laner Lucian."
"Haha, just remember."
"What's wrong?"
Li Hao said: "Let's score points together tonight?"
"Okay! Anyway, it's vacation now, so there's no need to train."
"..."
Flandre originally thought that it was just a double row, and this was not a big deal.
However, the result was not only beyond his expectation, but also beyond the expectations of the viewers who watched the live broadcast.
…
The next day, the morning light faded.
Shark Fighting 111 Live Room.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the barrages in the live broadcast room were still popping up:
"If you don't understand, just ask, how many hours does Brother Wolfberry owe you for working overtime all night?"
"Brother Holy Spear next to me also played all night. They have been playing in double queue. Snake is on holiday, but the players are still working so hard. I am really touched."
However, many people have discovered quite bizarre places.
"Brother Holy Spear has been playing Holy Spear Ranger all night, and he keeps walking in the middle. What's going on?"
"Brother Wolfberry has stayed up all night, and his complexion has basically remained unchanged. He is worthy of being the Emperor of the Liver. What's going on with Brother Holy Spear? Why does he feel even weaker than Brother Wolfberry? I can't stand it anymore?"
"It's normal that you can't stand it. This kind of king-level game, although it is Rank, it definitely consumes more energy than the game of ordinary players."
"Brother Hao has been directing and playing so seriously. It's so weird that he can still be so focused after playing all night."
"Hahaha, why do I feel that Flando was being trained by Brother Hao?"
Some netizens immediately stood up and said: "Wow, wow, I cried to death, Brother Hao really loves his fans, let him do it again, really do it again, how can there be such a conscientious anchor!"
"..."
At 24 minutes and 10 seconds, the old crystal on the opposite side exploded.
This game felt like there was an actor on the opposite side, and it collapsed very quickly. Li Hao's jungler Zach even got 6 kills.
After an easy victory, Li Hao looked at the screen.
really
Because we won too quickly and the opponent surrendered again, there were a lot of words on the barrage saying "This one doesn't count" and "One more".
The night before going home, when Li Hao saw such barrage, he would definitely not follow the standards of water friends every time.
But, last night.
However, he took advantage of the wisdom of the vast number of netizens, dragged Flandre to the gaming chair, and has been playing Lucian until now.
Backstab me, right?
"Brother Hao, please let me go."
Flandre's eyelids drooped and she turned her back to the camera and said, "I know I was wrong."
"I will never be skinny again"
Li Hao looked at him like this and showed a satisfied smile.
herring
Half an hour later, Flandre, who had been trained by the military all night, fell into a deep sleep.
Li Hao did not log off the live broadcast, but played a few more games.
While waiting in line, he went to play Landlord as usual.
In front of the screen, Li Hao was in extremely good condition due to the night devil effect of the thermos cup.
He talked eloquently and seemed not sleepy at all.
Those fans who have been watching the live broadcast since last night can't stand it anymore.
In the barrage, someone was already urging him to stop broadcasting.
"Next time I'll do it, next time I'll do it."
"Brother Hao, don't wait any longer, brothers are convinced."
"Brother Wolfberry: Everyone used to scream fiercely, right?"
"No wonder he can maintain that state during the competition, he is so invincible!"
"..."
[Night Owl] sent a plane, "Brother Hao, I'm going to sleep first."
[Bai Yueguang] sent a plane, "Brother Hao, go to sleep quickly."
While thanking the gift, Li Hao said: "Night owls, brothers Bai Yueguang, please go to sleep."
These two IDs are very familiar because they gave gifts during the live broadcast last night.
Li Hao also saw that some of them had also posted comments. It was not difficult to guess that they had been seeing their current friends since last night.
…
Magic City.
In a very quiet apartment.
"Dong~"
With a soft sound, a white porcelain cup with Spongebob printed on it was placed on the table. There was still some boiled water left in it, and another cup next to it contained coffee.
Inside the room, a young lady raised her hand and patted her chest gently.
She took out her mobile phone, her big eyes flashing with sleepiness.
Sliding her slender fingers on the screen, she clicked on WeChat and sent a series of messages from the account marked "Mom".
The time it was sent was around five o'clock yesterday evening.
[Xiao An, do you still remember the boy I told you about last time? 】
[I saw someone today. I won’t lie to you at all. The real person is more handsome than the photo I gave you. I fell in love with him at first sight. Of course, I’m not rushing you. This is the situation. Your cousins are all in love.
Now, your cousin’s child can walk now, and your cousin is already in puppy love (dog head).]
[When you were in school, you were staring at anime and games. I won’t talk about it. Now that you have graduated, it’s not appropriate to keep staring at these things. Be realistic. This time on a blind date, let’s get to know each other first. If it’s not suitable, then we’ll talk about it. 】
[Although you haven’t seen her before, my mother really didn’t tell lies this time. This child is good in all aspects. I have worked hard with your father for these years, and I still have a good eye for recognizing people.]
[When I saw the message, I left a message for my mother.]
…
The young lady wanted to laugh, but then she held it back.
Looking up, there was a promotional page framed with a sky blue border on her desktop.
"2016 Global Finals Champion Team Snake!"
…
…
Seoul, Korea.
Kka, who has been doing intelligence gathering work, discovered a piece of news worth noting.
He was a little unsure, so he came to discuss with the team members.
"Xianghe, do you think there is any content in this?"
As Kka spoke, he sent out a long string of Rank records.
Kka is not that boring. These Rank records are all the latest developments of Snake players.
"Lucian is a hero who is very suitable for playing the middle lane in the current version."
"Flandre was once even more famous for this hero, so others would call him Brother Holy Spear. In the Rank of the King of Chinese Servers, he continuously played mid laner Lucian, and also played double queue with The King, so he didn't sleep all night!"
"This has to make us think deeply!"
"Oh??" Smeb also leaned his head over.
He touched his chin and said, "This looks a bit like emergency training!"
Li Guapi frowned, thinking of the jungle sword master from S6.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years.
He immediately reported back: "When Wolfberry was in S6, he swapped positions with the jungler and produced unexpected results."
"If you train Flandre and use Lucian as a mid laner, this hero who is very strong in the lane will not have too many problems in the lane. Then he himself is likely to appear in the top lane. If Jing Hao is not careful, he will accidentally
Hit his black technology!"
"..."
Kka kept nodding, he agreed with Li Guapi's view.
"Xianghe, that's what I mean."
"For the S7 championship, we must make more comprehensive preparations!"
…
On September 9th, players from the three teams, nake, EDG, and RNG, gathered and headed to Wuhan together.
The qualifying round and group stage will start at the Wuhan Sports Center, so this time they go to Wuhan for training. When the competition officially starts, they will avoid the fatigue of travel and be able to perform more stably.
As a local team, they were the first to arrive in Wuhan.
Next, teams from all over the world will gather in Wuhan to start the hottest showdown! 7 is a major event in the LPL division. In addition to the three participating teams, other LPL teams that have not qualified for S7 will also become the companions.
Training assistance.
Among them, OMG, IG, WE, NB and other teams will serve as online training partners at any time from September 10th to September 23rd to hone tactics and help the three teams on the expedition maintain their feel and condition.
I arrived in Wuhan on September 9th, and after getting a little familiar with the venue environment, the training camp officially began.
The players from the three teams are working hard, and everyone understands what kind of moment this is.
On September 11, all quotas for participating in S7 in each competition area will be determined.
Riot Games acted resolutely, and after updating the latest team information, the lottery ceremony started the next night.
On the evening of September 12th.
The old-style handsome man and the cock appeared at the lottery ceremony as lottery guests.
They wore uniform white shirts and were very well dressed.
However, when the camera showed the cock, the style of the painting changed a bit.
It seems that he feels that he controls the fate of these teams. When the broiler draws lots, the meat on his face bulges, always with a cute smile.
The play-in tournament is a new addition to the competition system in 2017. 12 teams are divided into four groups and compete within the groups through a double round-robin wave 1 competition system.
According to the results of the competition, the top two teams in each group can advance to the second round and be randomly assigned to the No. 1 and No. 2 seed teams. A wave of 5 will be used to determine who can advance to the group stage.
In addition to the wild card teams, there are also several teams that have attracted more attention in the playoffs.
For example, FNC, the former king of Europe, C9 of the North American LCS division, and SSG of the South Korean LCK division.
Many viewers were shocked. After Samsung entered the hot bubble competition, they came out again!
In the last battle of this year's bubble tournament, SSG faced off against KT. The two sides fought five bloody games, which made the fans feel heartbroken.
Both are strong teams. It would be great if they could enter the S competition together.
However, there are SKT and Dragon Ball on it.
When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured.
In the fifth match between the two sides, Boss An showed his might!
With a blind move, he knocked over Mata and Deft's bottom lane.
Throughout the game, Boss An used Blind Monk to get super statistics, leading Samsung to a strong return to the global finals!
The titles of the e-sports discussion group that day were almost all in this style:
In the decisive battle of Incheon on September 6, Chief An cleans up the family and kicks a Samsung traitor!
…
These three teams received the most attention in the finals.
The draw for the play-in rounds will end soon, and they are:
Group A: SSG, GMB (Commonwealth of Independent States), LYN (Northern Latin America)
Group B:C9,ONE(Brazil),DW(Oceania)
Group C: FNC, YG (Southeast Asia), KLG (Southern Latin America)
Group D: HKA, FB (Fenerbahce), RPG (Japan LJL Division)
…
After the draw for the qualifying round ended, there was about a ten-minute intermission, and the draw for the group stage that attracted everyone's attention began immediately.
In the studio, the host Immortal Grip said:
"Next, guest AJ will draw the first seeds from the four groups."
There was a round of applause, and the handsome old man walked onto the stage.
He rubbed his hands and put his hand into the lottery pool.
Under the camera, you can see that fat hand moving the little ball that represents the fate of many teams.
At this moment, not only the teams participating in the 2017 League of Legends Global Finals, but also many League of Legends fans around the world are also paying attention to this process.
"Okay, AJ has drawn the number one seed in Group A, let's see which team it is."
"oh!"
"It's Snake!"
"The number one seed in Group A is determined to be Snake!"
On the big screen at the scene, a red and black light flashed, and Snake's team logo appeared, embedded in the frame of Group A.
Then, the picture on the big screen continued to change. The highlight scene of nake was presented.
2016 S competition champion, 2017 M private champion, 2017 Summer competition champion!
On the large scrolling screen, ribbons and golden rain have been floating.
All the viewers knew that this was the most brilliant and shining team at the moment! The players in the nake team flashed across the screen.
Miller joked: "I feel like the teams behind me don't really want to be assigned to Group A."
"Haha, of course."
"No team wants to meet Snake in the group stage."
…
AJ drew all the remaining three balls. KT was in Group B, G2 was in Group C, and Flash Wolves were in Group D.
The task of the ancient handsome man is completed, and the next work is left to Rookie.
The 8 teams in Pool 2 will be drawn into four groups in turn.
"The first person to draw the lottery is assigned to Group A"
"GAM!"
Everyone who was watching Snake's live broadcast laughed.
“Cocks are so cute.”
Flandre shouted: "Cock is the eternal god!"
GAM is a wild card team.
EDG is sighing with emotion.
Suddenly, the cock on the screen couldn't hold it back and showed a wicked smile.
He raised the team tag in his hand and showed it to everyone.
"For the second draw, the one assigned to Group B is EDG!"
"..."
Backstage at EDG, the factory director, Abu and others kept shouting bad luck.
Met the big devil again.
The broiler chicken continued to exert its power, and each battle team was drawn out one after another.
