The early morning sun shines on the street, wrapping the bodies of pedestrians who get up early and rushing on their way, like a gauze. Although it is thin, it has bursts of warmth.
It is rare to have good weather, no haze, blue sky and white clouds, birds singing and flowers fragrant. It is very suitable for family travel, outings and picnics.
But in such good weather, on the second floor of the Blue Cat Internet Club, in a large private room in the innermost corner, there were indeed five pale faces, thick dark circles under the eyes, disheveled clothes, and expressions that could be described as ferocious.
It describes five people sitting in front of their respective computers, staring at the screen and concentrating.
"Fuck! Ye Qiu, how the hell did you move! Do you know how to play?" Xu Yunlong was already naked and hunched over the computer. Seeing that the divine warrior Ye Qiu was playing was killed under the tower, he immediately
Howled angrily.
"It's not my fault! Three people came to catch me, can I run away?" Ye Qiu looked tired, but there was still excitement in his eyes.
"Come on, come on, come on, insert the eye! Where is the eye?" Xuan Wu was no longer the cold-faced person who cherished his words like gold. When he saw the bounty coming from the opposite side without showing his face, he shouted anxiously.
.
Zhu Quehuang no longer had the energy to call out, and his reflexes could hardly keep up. However, when Xuanwu reminded him, he still inserted a true eye into the foot of Xuanwu's clockwork.
Bi Yan, the only one among the five who looked relatively normal, rolled up his sleeves, unbuttoned his shirt, piled five empty Red Bull cans on his hands, and looked at the plane he was flying with a dull look.
From the meeting last night to now, the five people have not even closed their eyes.
"Left, left, hide! Fuck."
"Leave the calf alone!"
"Keep a wave on high ground!"
"Why are you rushing to the plane! Don't send it away!"
"I've been charged."
"Hold it! Hold it! Maverick, do you want the ravine to be so watery?"
"Slippery..."
Thirteen minutes later.
"...You can lose even if you beat a passerby..." Xu Yunlong leaned back in his chair, picked up a bottle of Coke that was no longer very cold, and covered his eyes.
"Everyone is tired." Xuanwu took two deep breaths before adjusting.
"What time is it?" Xu Yunlong no longer wanted to look at the screen.
"It's almost 8 o'clock." Bi Yan glanced at his watch and said weakly.
"Have a rest for a while..." Xu Yunlong stood up holding on to the armrest of the chair, grabbed the pullover hanging on the back of the chair, put it on softly, opened the door and walked out, went up to the third floor, and went to the bathroom.
Washed my face.
After taking a long breath and spitting out the filth in his lungs, Xu Yunlong raised his head, closed his eyes, and calmed himself down.
He didn't remember how long it had been since he had trained like this.
I remember when the team was first formed, the five of them would practice like this day and night.
Discuss lineups, practice coordination, study opponents, and analyze games.
But gradually, as the people separated and joined together, after he and Liang Yu were the only ones left among the original five, it seemed that the most primitive impulse and enthusiasm had dissipated a lot.
In order to get travel expenses for the game, we look for sponsors and accept new players selected by the sponsors. Most of them are familiar faces, basically some famous players that we have seen on the opposite side.
After three or four rounds of changes, the original oath member lineup was finally stabilized. They won games one after another and took home trophies one after another.
But at first, the feeling of joy that I just wanted to happily high-five and celebrate with my teammates slowly, little by little, dissipated in the flow of time.
The arrival of the manager, the arrival of the coach, the data scientist, the tactician...
The increasingly professional team gave him the feeling of being mechanized.
Maybe it was just the feeling of being controlled by others that made him very uncomfortable, but his feelings for his work and this team kept him persisting, even if there was a serious imbalance between his previous treatment and the value he created, but for
He has been insisting on engraving this team name on the immortal shield at the spring, so that people all over the world will remember the team they formed, and for those who once looked down on them and trampled them under their feet.
Until that day, the coach informed him that the team had to change its name due to the change of sponsorship.
Changing the team name was the only thing he couldn't accept.
But this might also be a good thing.
At least now, he has regained the passion for training day and night, which is much better than training like working from nine to five every day.
"Where's Brother Long?" Xiao Qingyue came in from outside with everyone's breakfast in her hand. When she saw that Xu Yunlong's seat was empty, she was stunned for a moment.
"I'm going to wash my face." Ye Qiu stretched out, moved his neck, rubbed his eyes, stood up, and walked to Xiao Qingyue to take the breakfast.
"Oh." Xiao Qingyue put down her breakfast, went out and went upstairs to look for Xu Yunlong.
Seeing Xu Yunlong coming out of the bathroom, Xiao Qingyue stepped forward and said hello.
"Brother Long, I've already bought breakfast, let's eat some first."
Looking at the box of buns handed over by Xiao Qingyue, Xu Yunlong nodded, but just took the buns without speaking.
"What time is the game today...?"
"17:00."
"When will you come over?"
Xiao Qingyue was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Xu Yunlong was referring to the hospital.
"I'll leave in a moment."
"oh......"
"Do you want to go together? I haven't visited him for a long time." Xiao Qingyue laughed, "He misses you a lot, so he should."
"No, I'm too embarrassed to see him." Xu Yunlong squeezed a bun with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Okay, let them all sleep for a while, don't stay up." Xiao Qingyue changed the topic. Ini's video. This bun is very delicious." Xu Yunlong said with the bun in his mouth.
"Don't look too late. I bought coffee, Red Bull and tea and put them in the training room. I found two houses, but they were quite far away, but they were quiet and not as noisy as the Internet. If I can win this game
, the championship bonus is 30,000, plus the 20,000 that Bi Zhan returned and the 200,000 that Ye Zebei lost to you, it can be rented for about a year. Do you want to take a look?"
"Well, when the game is over, I'll take some time to take a look." Xu Yunlong threw the empty box in the trash can next to the bathroom, "I'll go down first."
"Yeah." Xiao Qingyue did not follow, but returned to her room to change clothes and prepare to go out.ini's game video.
Unexpectedly, only halfway through, Xuan Wu's voice came from behind.
"Not sleeping?"
"Look at our opponents this afternoon."
"If the captain doesn't sleep, how can the team members sleep?" Xuanwu said, pulling out his chair and sitting down, and followed Xu Yunlong to watch the video.
