After the live broadcast, the team leader is already arranging the relevant food and accommodation for MSI in Brazil.
Although Riot officials have arranged a place for food and accommodation in advance, the food is different from what they eat on their own territory. In order to avoid any troublesome things like acclimatization, Pei Le gave Mika a fight early in the morning.
Telephone.
"Don't worry, boss, we arrived in Brazil almost a week early. Even if we are acclimatized, I have to overcome it." Mika stood up and faced the empty room and promised.
Pei Le's tone was much gentler, "We have money now, so don't be so stingy. Check in advance if there are any Chinese restaurants or the like. Make arrangements so that the team members can have four meals in the restaurant directly after the game. Everything is fine."
The club budgets out.”
"Also, the orthopedic surgeon in Germany asked him if he has time. If he has time, he can go directly to Shanghai to review Aguang's hand. Aguang is now the soul of our new WE, and nothing can happen to him."
"In a word, even if the plane breaks down and falls into the Pacific Ocean, you have to find a way to pick up Aguang and the others before they die."
"Understood, I promise to complete the task!!"
As usual, Pei Le asked about the preparation and training of the players. Although MSI is not the global finals, they still shoulder the honor of the LPL. If the winner of the LPL wins the championship and pulls their hips in the MSI arena, who will it be against?
It’s hard to explain.
"Don't worry about the training match. Everyone worked hard. In fact, yesterday Aguang was able to play other games and relax. The team's psychological teacher was relieved. To be honest, our training volume is a bit normal. Players can increase it by themselves.
It’s a bit exaggerated to suppress it…”
"Then drop it. It's difficult to urge players who are 17 or 18 years old to train hard. It's easier to take them out to relax. If it doesn't work, ask IG for advice. Just don't imitate their excessive debauchery."
"Hahaha, no, no, of course no."
"The team's recent training matches have been in great shape. Xiao Xiao even comes to play as the starting AD from time to time. Our team can defeat many teams' bot lane. I also advised him to consider making a comeback and get a championship skin with us in the summer split.
Something like that.”
"Haha, emergency substitute? That's not a big problem. He is still a registered player of our team in a strict sense. Your suggestion is interesting..."
"By the way, give me a call when you board the plane in the afternoon. Is the logistics staff almost ready?"
Mika glanced towards the first floor and said: "It's all done. Aguang is cooking in the cafeteria. Boss, you have to come and try our precious AD's cooking. It's amazing!"
“Bang!!!!”
A loud noise suddenly appeared on the first floor.
Mika was a little confused. It seemed like it was near the kitchen?
…
"Ding - Congratulations on the successful promotion of the host's reaction ability attribute. The current attribute is: 99 (SSS level)!"
Lin Huan, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard the system beep in his mind again. The improvement in physical attributes obtained in the Spring Judgment was finally completed.
Regarding the responsiveness of SSS, and this was before MSI started, I can only say that system daddy, you understand me.
In his excitement, Lin Huan raised his right hand high and waved it around, but he forgot that he had a shovel in his hand. As he was swinging, the shovel suddenly hit the top of the cabinet.
Wow!
Loud noises accompanied by things falling resounded throughout the first floor of WE.
"Aguang???"
"Light!!"
"Light???"
Two seconds later, a group of six or seven people rushed over at the entrance of the restaurant.
"Um... do you believe me when I say it's okay?"
"Why are you still standing there? Call 120!" He said sternly to the others.
"Oh, I'll fight! I'll fight now!" Kandi pressed several keys in succession, then deleted them, pressed them again, and made mistakes one after another.
Mika felt like her sky was about to fall.
Just now I was assuring my boss that something happened to AD. Not to mention Mr. Pei, even WE fans would have to tear him alive!
Xiye and Jiuwuqi hurriedly opened the debris on Lin Huan's body. Jiu5qi's face was as black as charcoal because one of the bags was the beef and ham he brought back!!
Beef! Beef! Damn, e-sports can’t have anything to do with beef.
"Don't be nervous, it's really just a touch and accidentally dropped the debris. The beef and ham are not heavy!"
Seeing the tense transition between the manager and his teammates, Lin Huan said helplessly.
I can't help it, this looks so much like an accident scene.
The few people moved the things away and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Lin Huan had no obvious injuries except dirty spots. Mika didn't dare to relax. Several players didn't see him but they saw the spot where the ham was hit.
But there were some bruises, but it was okay. If something happened, I wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility. When I heard the sound of the ambulance arriving at the club, I immediately asked someone to take Lin Huan to the hospital.
…
Naturally, the vast number of netizens cannot be satisfied by such a big movement from WE.
Before leaving for MSI, a news post was posted on the e-sports forum that a certain WE player was injured in training and was hospitalized, and ambulances were driven to the base.
At first, the players didn't believe it, but when the big WE base logo and the picture of the ambulance on the side were released together, the LPL audience became uneasy.
[Oh shit, my little sweetheart, you are playing with snakes like this. You are going to MSI soon to fix this? 】
[Who is it? It’s okay if it’s the top laner. After all, there is rotation. Others... Bah, bah, bah, nothing can happen to them in the top lane. 】
[The photo is not clear, but who is it? The person holding the support seems to be the Kangxi team, so there is nothing wrong with the middle and jungle.]
【Gan, it can’t be Lin Guangguang, right?】
[Shut up your crow mouth upstairs, can you say something nice? 】
What fans are most afraid of is something happening to AD. He just suffered from acute tenosynovitis in his right hand. If something happens again, they will go crazy.
Some people went directly to the official blog to ask, and soon a post yesterday about preparing for the MSI had over 10,000 comments.
However, ten minutes, twenty minutes...
Fans who hadn't seen the news on WE's official blog for a long time were in a rage.
…
Modu Orthopedic Hospital.
emergency room.
Lin Huan looked at his teammates surrounding him with an embarrassed look.
"Do you believe me when I say that I really just want to make tomato beef brisket for everyone? Then he has his own ideas about beef and ham."
In order to prove that he was fine, Lin Huan deliberately shook his right hand.
"Damn it, stop moving now, there is no such thing as beef in e-sports." Xiye screamed strangely.
He's the one who wants to eat tomato brisket.
Jiu Wuqi also looked ugly. The beef and ham that was the culprit was the one he brought to the base from home last time.
The other people said nothing, quietly waiting for the test results.
Crunch!
The door to the room was pushed open, and Mika walked in with a report, her expression unclear whether it was good or bad.
"Good news, no bones were broken!"
"Bad news, the doctor said that the soft tissue is injured, the competitive status cannot be guaranteed, and it is not sure whether it will cause the previous hand injury."
"It is recommended to rest for a few days and observe."
What is this thing called?
"Ah, the game is about to start. Our AD doesn't have any substitutes. We can't temporarily find an AD from the youth training. Then the bottom lane must not be beaten." Kandi felt a little uncomfortable.
He is accustomed to the daily advantage of the bot lane. If he doesn't go well in the jungle, he only needs to go to the bot lane to withdraw money. Now you tell him to go to the bot lane in the opposite direction and he will feel better.
Several people feel guilty. They would just eat takeout or have a meal at a restaurant for lunch. If they insist on greedy words, they will lose a lot of money now.
"It's not a big problem. It's just that we may need a few substitutes to help with training matches before the game. There is still one week left before the start of the group stage, which is enough to recover." Lin Huan comforted him.
Soft tissue injury is actually an occupational disease common to all ADs. The difference is probably big or small. In the past life, the stains were caused by tenosynovitis and soft tissue injuries. He was admitted to the hospital. Lin Huan was able to recover instantly due to the involution value.
But his teammates didn't know.
Substitute?
correct!
Isn't a certain king who drank the vegetable juice of the Great Sword the best candidate?
"Okay, I'll contact the boss." Mika said helplessly.
There was a commotion outside, and I had to give an explanation to the fans.
No wonder they reacted so violently.
For WE now, lustre has become the spiritual symbol of this team.
It should be said that since S6 last year when he led the team to tear through the darkness and walk from the abyss to the championship throne, the young man in front of him has become the most important person in the team.
TheShy stood at the edge. He was very worried about Lin Huan's health, and at the same time he was envious of the fact that he received so much care.
It was a kind of unconditional trust from his teammates, which even caused panic due to the opponent's absence. This was a scene that was extremely difficult to see in his previous youth training team in the LPL and even other competition regions.
Oh, or there is one in the LCK next door, but that person’s name is faker!
For WE to be where we are today, from the LPL third seed to the world champion, and then to this year's LPL Spring Split victory, outsiders don't quite understand the proportion of Lustre's role, but as one of them, he knows it too well, and even
A Guang single-handedly rescued himself from the dark world of youth training.
Faced with the mental state of the players, Mika could only cheer up. He still needed to deal with the series of reactions that followed.
…
Finally, with the eager anticipation of LPL fans, WE Club’s belated announcement was released on Weibo.
WE Club: "Dear WE fans, LPL viewers who follow WE, I regret to announce something here. WE Club's starting ADlustre player suffered soft tissue injuries directly or indirectly due to an accident. Now the club is actively communicating with Riot Games organizers.
, temporarily adding a substitute AD, it is not yet sure whether Lustre player can appear in the MSI group stage. I hope our ray of hope can recover quickly. Aguang, MSI can't do it without you!"
In 2016, the news that the main AD was hospitalized due to acute tenosynovitis seemed to be right before our eyes, and WE's announcement of soft tissue damage once again stirred players' memories.
All of a sudden, the forum exploded.
He gets hurt when he gets hurt, why is it AD again!
[Knock, it’s not over, right? WE, what do you do for food? If you can’t protect my family, just let him go. This is the second time. Do you want to do it a third time?]
[Light! Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... itself...... acute tenosynovitis and then soft tissue damage, why do you always get AD when you're injured?】
[It’s over, MSI is going to be bad, the enemy is the fully enhanced plus version of SKT, we will all die before we get out.]
[WE is difficult. People who don’t know think that the midfielder and jungler contributed a lot to this year’s complete victory, but everyone who really understands the game knows that it is because WE has a weapon that can destroy the enemy’s bottom lane at any time, and can also command the team in team battles.
The super missile operation system that has completed precise deployment would be like an aircraft carrier without its engine without Aguang!】
[No, why are you panicking? The soft tissue injury will be fine in a few days. The worst case scenario is that he will be a substitute for two games!]
[The brother upstairs didn’t examine the question carefully at first glance. One of the reasons for indirect soft tissue damage is that AD players put a heavy load on their wrists during extensive training.]
[Come on, now that I have full health, I am wandering around the LPL, and I can compete in the World Championship with only half health.]
In the view of some rational players, the sudden accident that WE did not mention may really be a small accident, and more of a trigger.
Of course, WE can't reveal the truth. My AD was helping a teammate make tomato beef brisket and was accidentally hit by something and ended up in the hospital. Let's not talk about whether the beef scandal will explode again in the e-sports circle. It's just that there is something in the kitchen.
Not even one of them could run away, and even Su Wangzi who wanted to eat beef would be greeted by some grumpy old man all the time.
Of course, in addition to some intensely emotional comments in the comment area, there are more comments that cheer for WE.
[Take good care of yourself and recover. Soft tissue damage is more of a sequelae of training. We also hope to see you defending the cup at home. Just leave it to your teammates in the MSI group stage. 】
[We believe that other people in WE, even if AD is on the bench, we can successfully enter the knockout rounds. 】
[Speaking of who will play as the substitute AD, Jiang Chenglu? I remember that he was quite good as AD top laner during the live broadcast. It shouldn’t be a big problem if he plays a few games in the group stage. 】
However, no one among the LPL viewers who were immersed in depression expected that WE's substitute would be that man.
…
May 5th.
The WE group set off for Brazil one day later than expected.
Because the air tickets were sold out, mika finally got an evening ticket, but by some mistake, she missed some unscrupulous editors who were squatting in the grass at the airport to get first-hand news about WE.
After more than ten hours of flying and waiting for all WE players to land in Sao Paulo and adjust their condition, the MSI play-in round has also come to an end.
As in the previous life, the three teams that got the group stage tickets were Vietnam Light GAM, BO1 king Flash Wolves, and forever top 16 TSM.
Other teams came to Sao Paulo early for adaptive training. Many teams have heard about the news that WE is late. Although they are also professional players, they feel a little sad that the rabbit died and the fox died. In their opinion, lustre is clearly caused by over-training.
It's just a recurrence of the injury. The club found some excuses just to cover up the truth.
Without Lustre in the bottom lane, WE's threat level immediately dropped by countless levels. As a competitor, I was extremely excited.
As for SKT, who arrived early, they learned from Riot staff that WE had finally arrived, and after adapting to the environment, they couldn't wait to send an invitation to WE for a training match.
They wanted to see the specific strength of WE who had lost lustre. To do this, they even went to the rest area of the WE team in person.
However, when he opened the door and saw the appearance of the person who replaced AD, even if he was a duke, he couldn't help but utter a curse word.
