Chapter 55: Fight against the dark forces OMG!
The first day of the second week of the LPL Spring Season.
That was the afternoon of January 21st.
After getting up and having lunch at noon, the IG club arranged two training matches with the WE team. After the games, they took a bus and went directly to the Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center.
Their game time today is from 5 to 7 pm.
As a substitute jungler, although Li Fu has not played a single practice match this year, he was asked to travel with the team as he did last week to prevent any unexpected situations such as eating spoiled beef noodles.
Because according to the rules of the LPL league, if a player is absent during the game and there is no one to replace him, he will be directly declared the loser.
Li Fu had no objection to this.
After all, he is just a substitute and he would feel embarrassed if he does nothing while receiving the club's salary.
It's just that the weather is not very good today.
Heavy rain poured into this coastal city in the afternoon. The gloomy sky suppressed the former brilliance of the glass curtain walls of the high-rise buildings. The noisy voices and honking horns on the streets seemed to be smashed into the flowing water on the ground by the sound of rain, and then washed into the sewer along the drainage ditch.
"This weather is not auspicious."
After the club's nanny car drove out of the community's underground garage, the superstitious coach Chris muttered something in the car.
At this moment, a flash of lightning like a white python suddenly flashed across the sky. Chris was startled and turned his head, only to see Li Fu's profile in the slightly dim corner behind the nanny.
He just sat there quietly, staring at the world outside the window with his sidelong glance, his whole body like a pool of stagnant water.
The next second, there was a rumbling thunder in the air, as if an angry dragon was roaring in the crater towards the sky with dark clouds covering the city.
Chris, who was staring at Li Fu, suddenly felt dizzy and felt that beneath the calm surface of the dead water, there seemed to be countless boiling hot magma!
He was stunned for a moment, thinking of the interview with Su Xiaoluo last night, and couldn't help but sigh again in his heart.
…
After a while.
The special car arrived at Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center.
When getting off the bus, the IG team met today's opponent, the OMG team, in the parking lot.
This team of dark forces, which was once well-known to everyone, now has all new faces except for the mid laner "Emperor Tai". There is also a boy with expressionless face in the team who is also quite eye-catching.
Rookie glanced at Uzi and forced a smile on his kind face.
But the other party was talking to a few younger brothers. I don’t know if he didn’t see it, but he ignored Rookie.
When people take the initiative to release kindness,
Mostly due to lack of self-confidence.
Li Fu, who was standing next to Rookie, couldn't help but smile when he saw this. He put his arm around Rookie and said:
"Nervous?"
"No... uh... a little bit." Rookie pursed his lips and smiled.
"Don't worry. Didn't the coach tell us at noon that we should just play with all our strength and we will definitely win?" Li Fu said with a smile.
"He said the same thing last week." Rookie glanced at Chris and couldn't help muttering.
Li Fu couldn't help but laugh when he heard it.
He could understand Rookie's nervousness.
After all, OMG was once a dark force, and had fought classic battles such as a 50-blood comeback and a shutout of the Korean team Najin White Shield.
Mid laner Uzi solo killed Faker in the 13th World Finals, becoming the first professional player to solo kill Faker in a professional game. He was also the No. 1 mid laner in LPL in S3 and S4.
Even though OMG is falling apart now, how can Rookie not be nervous when facing the old state of the mid lane that was able to suppress Wei Shen and Fat General last season? Now the IG team's own condition is not good.
But Li Fu was really not nervous.
Thanks to the soul in his body that travels through time and space to see the future, Li Fu is very clear that this season's OMG will miss the playoffs due to insufficient points, just like last season, and will even face the dilemma of playing a "relegation match".
Among the many teams in LPL, OMG is now just like what Su Xiaoluo said, an experience baby team.
But on second thought,
If the future he glimpsed is correct, IG seems to be almost going to the relegation match this season.
Li Fu was speechless again.
Never mind. You should just be more nervous.
He patted Rookie on the shoulder, picked up his personal backpack and peripheral equipment, got out of the car and went straight to the backstage waiting room at the competition venue.
Put your stuff down in the waiting room.
Li Fu waited for a while with some anticipation in his heart, and saw the coach pulling a few starters together to discuss the tactics for the afternoon match against OMG.
Everything was still the same as before, and I had nothing to do with it from beginning to end.
Li Fu sighed inwardly.
Oh shit!
Still not giving me a chance.
never mind.
Then let's wait a little longer.
When they had almost finished discussing, Li Fu walked to the side of coach Chris and gestured outside.
It means to go out and walk around.
Chris made an OK gesture when he saw this.
He was relatively relaxed about team management . Moreover, Li Fu was quite reliable in this regard and would never go far if he said he would stroll around the venue.
Basically on call.
He was happy to turn a blind eye.
Li Fu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, turned around, tiptoed out of the waiting room, and closed the door behind him.
After Li Fu left the room, Su Xiaoluo, the manager of the waiting room, looked in Li Fu's direction.
I exchanged glances with Chris again.
Shaked his head.
Meaning,
I just dropped my bag and ran away. Is that my professional attitude? And you told me to change the formation and replace the players?
Coach Chris laughed dryly.
No words.
…
Li Fu took the elevator downstairs and found that it was still raining outside when he arrived at the door, so he scanned the code at the shared umbrella store next to him and took an umbrella.
As he was about to take a step after stretching his legs, he caught a glimpse of a group of LPL commentators, hosts and other staff walking through the side door.
Huh?
One of them seems familiar.
When he turned around, he found that the group of people had already got on the elevator. He shook his head and without thinking too much, he went straight to a nearby Internet cafe as if he was familiar with the route.
Yes.
Li Fu's destination was the Internet cafe.
Otherwise, what do you think the internet-addicted teenager can do by sneaking out?
Do you want a foot massage?
…
"Network administrator, turn on the computer, and give me another bottle of iced black tea, a large one..."
"It's the popular version, right? Haha, I understand."
Happy Hour Internet Cafe Bar,
The network administrator smiled and helped Li Fu, a regular customer, turn on the machine, and then pointed him to an area where there were not many people.
Li Fu put away his umbrella and placed it on the drain rack. He then turned on his computer with a cup of iced black tea in hand and logged into the Canyon of Heroes when he heard a notification.
"Welcome to player No. 066, he is a master from the top of the canyon. I wish you a happy game."
For a moment, many customers in the Internet cafe who were not playing games couldn't help but look over.
"Grandmaster in the Canyon of Heroes? The highest rank in the international server is Grandmaster, right? Who is so awesome?"
"I didn't notice, but the person who just walked past seemed to be Brother Fu."
"Fu Huang? Wasn't he a master of Korean clothes before?"
"You guys have the Internet in the village. Brother Fu has been very strong in the Canyon of Heroes recently. He has even made it into the top three."
"Fuck, the strongest king will be settled the day after tomorrow. Doesn't that mean Brother Fu has a chance to become the number one king at the top of the canyon?"
"It's hard to say. In two days, who knows?"
“…”
Amidst a flurry of whispers, Li Fu put on his headphones, logged into the game, clicked on the ranking, and then opened the live broadcast on the Shark platform.
[I'm in an Internet cafe, there's no camera, just trying to get some points]
During the live broadcasts over the past few days, Li Fu's ability to kill enemies in the late game of the Canyon of Heroes has attracted more and more fans. Just a few minutes after the live broadcast started, a large number of viewers came to follow him.
"What the hell! Are you guys broadcasting at this time?"
"Doesn't IG have a game this afternoon? Why doesn't Fu Huang play?"
"Fu Huang, Fu Huang, why don't you go on stage? Don't you want to?"
"Emperor Fu: It's not that I won't play, it's that I can't play!"
"I am dying of laughter. General Sturgeon is so damn stable in this starting lineup."
“…”
The netizens were chatting on the barrage, and soon they talked about the top ten rankings in the Canyon of Heroes that everyone was concerned about.
"By the way, Fu Huang is now the third in the Canyon of Heroes, can he be the first today? I don't ask for the first place in the final settlement, as long as I get the first place, I will reward him!"
"The boss is very generous! But I think it's a bit difficult. Faker and Dopa are both crazy and have been gaining points like crazy recently."
"Unless I can match up with Faker, I can take his points and make him fall."
Li Fu glanced at the barrage and opened the current real-time ranking of the top of the canyon.
First: SKT - Faker! Master: 801 points
Second: Dop4! Master: 791 points
Third: Badman! Master: 777 points
At present, Li Fu is 24 victory points behind the man from SKT. The key is that they are now gaining points at the same time.
Li Fu is on top and so are others.
There were several times when he was queued together with Faker.
I can only say that Faker in S6 was really strong. His awareness of laning, roaming and supporting was fully utilized, and playing Ranked games was just like eating and drinking.
Often, before his father's energy mark is fully stacked, Faker has already killed a lot of people, roaming around the three lanes to help his teammates take off.
Want to surpass this man.
I'm afraid it's really like what the netizens said, Li Fu has to be placed in a game opposite the opponent, and he has to beat this man.
This is really difficult.
He was thinking.
With a clang sound.
The pre-qualification has entered...
At the same time, the LPL venue of Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center, which is more than 100 meters away.
As all the afternoon audience entered the venue.
Three commentators took their positions.
The first game between IG and OMG on the first day of the second week of the LPL Spring Split has officially entered the pre-match BP phase.
