The eighth season of the Glory Professional League, December 2, Wednesday.
It's half past eight in the morning.
The training room was empty. When Ye Xiu turned on his computer and connected to QQ, he was dazzled by the dense message prompts.
"Has Sun Xiang transferred to your family?"
"Sun Xiang transferred to Excellent Era?"
"Old Ye, Old Ye, Old Ye! Sun Xiang from Yueyun has transferred to your family? It's so sudden! There was no news at all beforehand! By the way, Sun Xiang transferred to Hengdao and didn't come with him! Then he will go to Excellent Era.
Which character should I use? Do you have a secret weapon in your family?"
Ye Xiu calmly closed the chat window and clicked on the interface of the league's official website. Sure enough, on the news homepage of the website, there was a transfer message:
"Sun Xiang of Team Yueyun, Transferred to Excellent Era"
...Sun Xiang.
Ye Xiu stared at the news for a minute or two. Then, he moved the mouse, clicked on the news link, and read it carefully.
The only one who transferred was Sun Xiang.
There is no Hengdao. There is no account card used by Sun Xiang during his time in Team Yueyun.
Ye Xiu suddenly smiled. In the empty training room, the corners of his lips slowly rose up, reflected on the wide 24-inch LCD screen, and solidified into an indifferent and self-deprecating smile——
What else do you need to confirm, Ye Xiu.
Sun Xiang, last year's best rookie, moved to Excellent Era. But before that, he was the captain, founder, and architect of the team's tactics...
Nothing.
He even saw this news on the league's official website.
The time for Excellent Era to ask him to leave has finally arrived.
Sun Xiang transferred without his character, and One Autumn Leaf could not be taken with him when he left.
Ye Xiu closed his eyes slightly. He concentrated for a moment, suddenly opened QQ, and quickly replied to the messages one by one. Those who asked, inquired, and cared——
"It's time to train. Let's talk later."
"It's time to train. Let's talk later."
"It's time to train. Let's talk later."
Fortunately, the training times of all major teams were similar. Around nine o'clock, QQ finally became quiet. The training room was full of people. Except for Su Mucheng, no one greeted Ye Xiu. Everyone spoke in silence.
I turned on the computer and did my daily exercises in silence.
For more than an hour, there was no sound in the huge training room. The keyboard and mouse buzzed together, making a soft echo on the glass windows, making the training room even more empty and terrifying.
It was 10:30 in the morning. As usual, it was the time to fine-tune team tactics. For the first time in many years, Ye Xiu did not take the initiative to get up and summon the team members. Instead, he sat in front of the computer, clicked on the videos he had just downloaded, and watched them intently.
Sun Xiang, Season 8, team competition versus Tyranny.
Sun Xiang, in the eighth season, faced Deng Fusheng in the group arena.
Sun Xiang, in the eighth season, against Zheng Xuan in the group arena...
He read very quickly, often just pulling the mouse and clicking to close it. He browsed through all the videos, opened Baidu, entered the two keywords "Sun Xiang Battle Mage", and clicked the search button.
This time, a few videos of Sun Xiang using Battle Mage in exhibition matches and commercial matches popped up on the all-powerful Baidu.
Ye Xiu watched attentively. The spectator's perspective, Sun Xiang's perspective, the opponent's perspective, slow play, pull back, over and over again. There were only three games in total, and the total battle lasted less than ten minutes, but he actually watched it for a full hour.
After watching it, I clicked on the game videos of the eighth season and studied them from the beginning one by one.
People in the training room came and went, and the lunch that Su Mucheng put in his hand was hot and cold. And Ye Xiu, after closing the last game video, finally took a long breath and kept tangled in a ball.
The center of his eyebrows stretched out for the first time at this moment.
...Although he didn't know who made the judgment for Tao Xuan, making him think that Sun Xiang, a mad swordsman, could perfectly control One Autumn Leaf, he also wanted to say that Sun Xiang had this strength.
Sun Xiang's fighting style, operating habits, understanding and mastery of battle mages...
It’s true, it’s suitable for the profession of warfare.
fine.
very good.
...Introducing Sun Xiang may really be a move to bring Excellent Era back to life.
Only then did he realize that his stomach ached with hunger. Ye Xiu hurriedly finished his meal, looked at the time, and immediately got up and went to the training camp. The children in the camp didn't know much about this incident. Seeing him
Come here and swarm us.
Ye Xiu found an empty machine and swiped his card to log in. Excellent Era's training camp was quite large. Even if it wasn't winter or summer vacation or a weekend, there were still twenty or thirty people there. Ye Xiu welcomed everyone who came, coaching each game.
He played continuously, and each game was accompanied by commentary and commentary. The teenagers gathered around him in three layers, with their eyes shining and holding their breath.
After the last round, Ye Xiu stretched out, pushed his chair away and walked to the window. He raised his head and looked outside, and it was completely dark outside the window. The low clouds were thick and gray and black.
, revealing an ominous deep red color.
"I am leaving."
He took one last look around the teenagers and walked away. When he was about to reach the door of the training room, he heard a chaotic noise inside. Liu Hao's voice was particularly prominent:
"Let's go to the reception banquet tonight - leave early tonight, the manager is treating us... Ah, Ye, Ye..."
Ye Xiu held a cigarette in his mouth and looked at him silently. Through the rising smoke, Liu Hao's expression suddenly changed from the panic of being caught to the guilt, and he struggled out a fierce and inner toughness, grinning at him
A smile:
"Brother Ye?"
"Oh, you're busy." Ye Xiu nodded, walked past him, walked to his seat and sat down. Liu Hao laughed dryly and turned to Su, who was standing nervously aside, with his nails digging into his palms.
Mucheng:
"Su mm, together?"
"I won't go." Su Mucheng's voice was cold. Ye Xiu paused while moving the mouse and turned to look at her:
"Mu Cheng, go ahead. It's okay."
"But--"
"It's okay. It's just eating. I'm here."
He watched Su Mucheng reluctantly walk away. Everyone in the training room quickly left. Ye Xiu thought about it, returned to his room, looked around. He opened a few drawers, and then
He closed it one by one, and finally, he took out only a silver-white first-edition card and put it into his wallet with great care.
When he returned to the training room, it was completely dark. Ye Xiu took out One Autumn Leaf's account card and reached for the login device next to the computer screen. Where he looked, he was suddenly startled involuntarily.
...Ten years of wind and frost, ten years of companionship. On the back of the account card, the four words "One Autumn Leaf" written by him in his own hand, have faded and blurred into one piece.
Ye Xiu wandered around the training room aimlessly. His eyes wandered around, but he didn't find what he was looking for. He quickly circled around again. After two rounds and returned to his seat, he remembered that he always kept a notebook in the drawer.
, and there is always a pen in the notebook——
He had been looking for the pen for so long but could not find it.
leaf.
Autumn.
The two words were written smoothly and skillfully. Then, Ye Xiu carefully traced the other two words on the account card.
Ye Qiu.
One Autumn Leaf.
The four characters of "龙飞峰五五" identify the identity of the most famous account card in the league, who holds the title of Fighting God. They have been together from the first day of opening the server to the present. They are the children he raised with great care and support.
The companions he fought alongside were bone of his bones and flesh of his flesh——
One Autumn Leaf.
Once again, QQ notifications sounded densely. Ye Xiu glanced at the shaking penguin, opened the chat window, and replied to the inquirer who had accumulated 99+ messages:
"Come to the arena and play the big trumpet."
One Autumn Leaf's tuba.
The loud sound of rain at night is annoying.
Fight, fight.
Fight fight fight.
One didn't say anything, and the other didn't ask. The league's most famous chatterbox was typing away, but he never mentioned the reason for inviting this fight. It was just a fight, just a fight.
The last period of time before bidding farewell to One Autumn Leaf must be spent in a battle worthy of it.
A pair of dexterous hands flew around to control the keyboard and mouse, and the rhythmic tapping sounds seemed like a brisk music. The intense and changing operations were extremely stable. After a PK, even the ash condensed on the cigarette end was gone.
Shocked.
A flash of light flashed across the screen, and the opponent fell down with flying blood.
"coming?"
"coming."
"Then let's go!" Ye Xiu rejected his opponent's invitation to fight again and gently took off a card from the login device dedicated to the online game Glory. When he stood up and walked to the door, he took it off the clothes hanger on the side.
Got the coat.
"Ye Qiu, the club has decided that the newly transferred Sun Xiang will take over your captaincy. One Autumn Leaf will be controlled by Sun Xiang from now on."
"Ye Qiu, give One Autumn Leaf's account card to Sun Xiang!"

Years later, when I read this article again, it still hurts so much that I can't breathe.
