Chapter 871: Dawn Star
From the beginning of the S3 to S4 seasons, in the national server, you just need to ask a gamer who is the strongest mid-laner in the national server, and almost everyone will give the answer without hesitation:
"Star Emperor!"
"Dawn Star!"
"Properly, it must be the Star Emperor, who else can he be?"
"Hey, what the Dullless Heart is a little bit back, it's not at the same level as the Star Emperor!"
It's basically the same answer.
Dawn Star.
The captain of the core ace mid-laner of the God team.
The first mid-list in the national service.
The Seven Kings of the World.
A series of glory titles are accompanied by this ID name, and for almost a whole season, this ID name is like a flag benchmark in the hearts of all League of Legends gamers in the national server.
Even when "Addisi" Shi Hang returns to the LPL arena, even if "Yuanshen" Tian Tian is among the seven kings of the world, it still does not affect the status and image of Dawn Star in the minds of the vast majority of national players.
But......
Behind the endless honor and aura, there is also a huge pressure that only the parties themselves can feel.
The first mid-list in the national server?
The Seven Kings of the World?
Indeed, such an honorary title is enough to give anyone ecstatic, but it is not enough for Dawn Star.
Because he had won such an honor too early, and with the accumulation of time, when more people had more and more great hopes and expectations for him, he was pushed to have to try again and again to break through.
But......
Time and time again, he failed.
In the S Series World Finals, almost every time he encounters teams such as Team Legend in Europe, Team Season in North America, Team SSK in South Korea, or Team Fate, the God-Hand team he leads is always more defeated than victorious.
Even......
The win rate has never exceeded 30%.
And especially in the middle of the lane where he is located, he has played against the "Immortal Bird"-Phoenix, "Moon Emperor"-Moon, and "F" countless times, and he is almost always in a passive disadvantage.
The only time he played to the peak of his state was that he fought with Moon to a five-five match, and that whole round of BO5 duel almost made the entire national server and all players were sensational, feeling that their star emperor might finally enter the "four emperors".
But......
But only that one time.
The Four Emperors were not invincible.
Many people will use this sentence to comfort themselves or others, and the most common example used is the BO5 duel between Dawn Star and Moon, but the real situation is only the two parties themselves at that time who have the most profound and clear experience.
It is true that the Four Emperors are not invincible, but the only one who can really defeat the Four Emperors from the front is the Four Emperors themselves.
Dawn Star had understood this a long time ago.
And he also felt that he was only one step away from the threshold that was almost equivalent to the highest level of esports...... No, maybe even half a step away.
Half-step Four Emperors.
Therefore, he was able to forcibly stabilize the rhythm and try not to fall behind when facing the powerhouses of the Four Emperors, and he was even discussed in the circle that he might be the strongest Seven Kings.
But the strongest Seven Kings, that is still not the Four Emperors.
It's not that he didn't desperately want to break through, and he didn't go out of his way to rack his brains to try to cross that damn threshold.
He did everything.
It takes no less effort and sweat than any of the hardest working professional esports players.
Even the other teammates of his club, including his partner and friend, were shocked and frightened to watch, and persuaded him that there was no need to work so hard, after all, "they are already standing at this height".
However, such comfort is more like a condescending mockery of God to him.
This height.
Oh, yes.
The first mid-laner in the national server, the seven kings of the world.
In other words, 99% of people should be satisfied, so why force more?
For Dawn Star...... There is only one reason.
Because.
Unwilling.
……
Standing in the training room of the God Team Club, standing in front of No. 1, his ears still echoed the thunderous words that the former had just thrown out as if he were understated, and Dawn Star's eyes were already crawling with bloodshots, and his hands were clenched into fists at some point, almost clenching blood hard.
Yes, not reconciled.
His talent is almost stronger than that of the vast majority of professional players, so he was able to break through to the realm of the Seven Kings that would be difficult for most people to reach in his first year of joining the professional esports scene almost effortlessly.
And his efforts are no less than anyone's, when many professional players choose to indulge in other temptations after becoming famous, resulting in a decline in form and disappointing fans or even being expelled from the club, only he has been consistent enough to lead the God team to stand on the throne of the strongest club in the national server, and he himself has been the No. 1 midlaner in the national server for several seasons.
But......
When he was clearly able to see the threshold of the Four Emperors realm.
When he had almost even half a step over.
The remaining half step......
But why can't you get there?
He has studied countless times the game videos of every top single player in the world, including the ranking videos of passers-by, watched them over and over again, analyzed, learned and deduced them over and over again, and then tried to absorb and improve them himself.
But it didn't work.
So the time of such a few seasons passed quietly, and he was still standing under the aura of the strongest mid-laner in the glamorous national uniform, but he was still blocked half a step away from the threshold of that realm.
Why?
Why!?
He also had his own emotional breakdowns, locking himself in the dormitory room and crying loudly after all the other teammates in the club left, but when he recovered emotionally and calmed down again, he looked down at his hands and could only uncontrollably produce a sense of despair from the depths of his heart.
Perhaps, this is fate?
Some people can't play professionally in their lifetime, some people can only mix in the arena of the first-class professional league in their lifetime, and some people can't break through the realm of world-class players in their lifetime.
And he.
It may be destined that it will never be able to cross the real supreme threshold for e-sports players.
When he slowly began to accept such a cruel reality, Dawn Star also changed back to that calm and restrained state, and he was still the strongest star emperor in the national uniform in the minds of all fans, the most stable and indestructible backer in the eyes of his club teammates, and the most difficult target object in the eyes of opponents.
Even he himself slowly began to feel a little relieved.
Seven Kings.
Maybe that's good enough.
Isn't it true that everyone should be content?
However, when he had begun to slowly comfort and hypnotize himself with such thoughts, and even when he was gradually about to accept everything, he heard such words in a calm and calm tone, but no less than a thunderous explosion:
"I didn't want ...... at all"
"Would you like to take another look up there?"
So at this moment, the dawn star trembled, and at some point, his eyes were red, and his eyes were almost shining, but he couldn't hold back, and his voice seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and he asked with difficulty:
"Senior...... Can I really? ”
No. 1 bows slightly:
"Of course."
Outside the window, the afternoon sun is still shining.
And in the training room on the second floor of the entire God Club training base, it was really cast, perhaps the most shocking one in the past few years*!
