Chapter 14: When the Playoffs Are in Progress

At the end of the regular season, EVE entered the playoffs with the first ranking, and Ji Heng won the MVP of the regular season. There has been some rumor about EVE's use of new training methods, and many foreign investors with business acumen have begun to contact him.

"Big boss, I have something to do, I think about it, I still have to report it to you." Manager Fang was a little embarrassed at this time, standing beside Boss Wang.

"Say." Boss Wang looked at the data analysis of the recent team on the tablet.

"Ji Shuai and Ren Tian should be in love." Manager Fang considered the terms and reported succinctly.

"I already knew this." Boss Wang said casually

“? What the? How do you know? Manager Fang was shocked.

"Hehe, Ji Heng's mother came to ask me some time ago, and she came to ask me about Ren Tian's situation." Boss Wang finally glanced at Manager Fang.

"Ji Heng's mother also knows you?" This was completely unexpected by Manager Fang.

"His mother Song Lan is a very powerful barrister, a well-known strong woman in Shanghai, and the president of the Bar Association. It's no surprise that we know each other. ”

"I only heard that Ji Heng was a rich second generation before, but I didn't expect it...

"Their relationship now doesn't affect the game, and I think Ji Heng's recent form is still rising, so you don't care about his personal affairs. Now the team's goal is to win the Spring/Summer Championship. Got it? Boss Wang patted Manager Fang's shoulder and said earnestly, looking like a parent whose child is about to take the college entrance examination.

The first team to meet in the EVE playoffs was Team Dark Horse YJ, which was formed last year and advanced to the playoffs for the first time this year. Although their strength is not first-class, there is a very famous player in the team, that is, their ADC, Li Mingcheng, who has just transferred from Hanbok.

Li Mingcheng's game name is Puppy, and he is also very pure, but his personal style of play is not as cute as his name, his hero pool is very deep, and because Wayne's winning rate is ridiculously high and was named the first person in history, after coming to the YJ team, he led the entire team with the power of one person, and actually killed one of the top 4 teams in the last game. In the recent ADC rankings, his personal strength is a little higher than Ji Heng, ranking second in the world.

"Which of you is stronger?" The game is about to start, Ren Tian asked Ji Heng.

"Pretty much." Ji Heng's tone was relaxed, not worried at all, he handed the coffee in his hand to Ren Tian's mouth, and said softly, "Do you want to take a sip?" Didn't put milk. ”

Ren Tian took a sip of his hand, and frowned bitterly: "I see that you are not worried at all." ”

"What are you worried about, don't I still have you when I'm down?" Ji Heng drank the coffee in the cup in one gulp and prepared to play.

"You drink so much, aren't you afraid to go to the toilet?" Ren Tian frowned and asked.

"It's a quick battle, it won't take long." Ji Heng touched her ponytail and said with a smile.

Although Ji Heng said not to worry, the coach still didn't allow them to let Wayne out, Ji Heng originally wanted to try to see how strong Li Mingcheng's Wayne was, but he had to give up.

"Don't underestimate the enemy, although YJ's strength is not as good as F or Botao, but we must put an end to all accidents in the game." Coach Wang advised.

At the beginning of the game, Ji Heng got the big mouth, and Li Mingcheng got the mouse.

"You guys, I'll play with him." Ji Heng said in the channel, rushing towards the lower road with great interest, feeling that the lower road has become an arena for his two heads-up.

Not long after, a blood was born, and Ren Tian and Xiao K, who came from the middle lane, jointly killed the opponent's midlaner. Ren Tian looked at Ji Heng's side, his economy and Li Mingcheng's economy were not much different, and their equipment was similar.

The two sides fought for a while, and both sides won and lost in the middle and upper lanes.

"The captain comes and fetches the dragon." At this time, the big dragon brushed, Ren Tian and Xiao K surrounded the dragon pit, and they saw that the jungler on the opposite side was also on the way over. Ji Heng didn't pay attention, Ren Tian took a look, he was fighting 1V1 with Li Mingcheng over there, and both of them were only half blooded.

"Let's just take it." Ren Tian said helplessly. She and Xiao K played very quickly, although the opponent's mid laner soon TP came over to support the jungler, but Xiao K still grabbed Xiao Long.

Ren Tian got the dragon but didn't go back to the middle road, and quietly went down, Xiao K was about to ask her what she was going to do, when she suddenly saw Ren Tian flash, flashed to the middle of Ji Heng and Li Mingcheng, and grabbed the last drop of blood before the two exchanged each other, and took down Li Mingcheng's head with a big move.

Ji Heng was shocked, and the rest of the team was also stunned, and chose to be silent with interest, only Ren Tian said quietly: "Little K, you come and cooperate with me to take the middle road tower." ”

THE COMMENTATOR ON THE COMMENTARY SEAT COULDN'T HELP BUT LAUGH AT THIS TIME: "THE MOMENT HENG WAS ROBBED OF HIS HEAD JUST NOW, IT SEEMS THAT PEOPLE ARE SLUGGISH, AND HE MUST WANT TO HANG UP NOW." This time the ADC derby ended in this way and was sure to disappoint all the fans who liked the two players. ”

Another commentator: "I DON'T KNOW IF SKY WILL BREAK HENG'S HEART BY DOING THIS, I THINK HENG'S FACE SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE DIGNIFIED." The relationship between the two of them has always been very good. ”

The director switched the camera to Ji Heng's face at the right time, and he was really expressionless and silent, and didn't say anything.

As a result of this game, EVE finally pushed off the crystal, but Ji Heng was a little gloomy on the way down from the arena to the lounge.

"Are you really angry?" Ren Tian grabbed him and asked, looking innocent.

"No, I just don't know why you did that." Ji Heng restrained his emotions and tried his best to say his thoughts as plainly as possible. After all, he and Li Mingcheng have never met like this in the arena before, and this opportunity is very rare.

"You're the captain, we're playing, I thought you knew that." Ren Tian said.

"I'm the captain? Wasn't it all about you directing that game? Ji Heng felt that his temper was also a little up

"I'm sorry, maybe my way is wrong, I apologize, but the game is the game, and winning the game is the first thing, and you just did it like you normally." Ren Tian stared at Ji Heng and said, there was an unfamiliar stubbornness in his eyes.

"Well, if you don't say it's like it, it's not like it." Ji Heng turned around and returned to the lounge alone.

The atmosphere in the lounge was a little awkward, seeing that Ji Heng didn't speak, the others also remained silent, and even the coach didn't know what to say.

In the second set, Puppy Li Mingcheng also changed his playing style, he was no longer entangled in the entanglement with Ji Heng in the lower lane, but always combined with the jungler to attack in the middle lane, which caused Ren Tian to be pressed very badly in the middle lane in the early stage.

"Little K, you go to the middle lane to help." Ji Heng said in the channel.

"Oh."

After playing for about ten minutes, EVE's middle lane fell into a situation where the opponent's five people were besieged. Ren Tian didn't say a word, Ji Heng let Ah Kun and Sun Haoying go to the middle lane, and he chose to continue to push down the second tower of the lower road.

When the commentator on the commentary platform began to speculate whether Ji Heng was fighting with emotions in this game, Ji Heng's hero quickly came out of the core equipment, and then TP arrived near the grass in the middle lane, at this time Li Mingcheng had just used a flash to kill Ren Tian's hero, and Ji Heng jumped out of the grass like a ghost, opening the big recruit to kill Li Mingcheng and the auxiliary heads. YJ's people were dumbfounded, they didn't expect Ji Heng's equipment to be so fast, and then the remaining 3 people were also wiped out by Sun Haoying and Xiao K's group.

This game ended quickly, and when all the team members stood up, Ji Heng walked to Ren Tian's side, changed his tone and said, "I thought about it, or you are right, the overall situation is important." I apologize for what just happened. ”

Ren Tian smiled and nodded, and gently tapped Ji Heng's chest with his fist.

Ji Heng bent down and stared at her again, "And I found out that you are actually a good team commander." ”

Ren Tian looked at him in surprise: "Me? I just couldn't do it. ”

A strange look flowed from Ji Heng's eyes: "I mean really. ”

In the post-game interview, the reporter interviewed Ji Heng specifically about this incident.

"Ji Shuai, was Ren Tian's destruction of your and Li Mingcheng's 1v1 in the first game the team's tactical arrangement, or was it a deliberate sabotage made by her disapproval of your approach?"

Ji Heng laughed: "This is a team competition, there is no such thing as 1v1, Ren Tian, as an excellent professional player, will certainly not let go of any opportunity to kill the enemy and protect his teammates." Next question. ”

When Ji Heng was interviewed, Ren Tian was buying drinks at the beverage machine outside the lounge, and after scanning the code, the drink didn't fall for a long time, she could only lower her head to see if the machine was broken. At this time, someone on the machine snapped a few times, and the Coke can fell into the basket in response.

"Thank you." Ren Tian said, turned around, and saw Wu Bai standing there with a bag on his back.

"Hi, what? Do you have a game today? Ren Tian raised his hand as a greeting.

Wu Bai nodded, he bent down to help Ren Tian take out the Coke, handed it to her and said, "Next one." How are you lately? ”

Ren Tian was stunned for a moment, and Wu Bai continued: "I heard about your family, you... Take care of yourself. When he said this, Wu Bai's hands were sweating, because he felt that his comfort seemed to be very meaningless.

Ren Tian's eyes were slightly red, and Wu Bai became even more overwhelmed, but Ren Tian quickly adjusted his mood: "It's okay, thank you for your concern." ”

Wu Bai wanted to say something, but he couldn't find the words, and the two of them just stood there silently.

"Xiaotian, let's go." Ji Heng walked over at this time, and when he saw Wu Bai, he stood up a little surprised: "Wu Bai? You're here too. ”

Wu Bai looked at him casually: "Well, I'll go in, I'll see you later." He glanced at Ren Tian again, nodded, and turned to leave.

Ji Heng saw that Ren Tian's eyes seemed to be a little red, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Ren Tian rubbed his eyes: "It's okay, let's go." ”

Ji Heng glanced in the direction Wu Bai left, for some reason, he recently felt that there seemed to be something in Wu Bai's eyes that was becoming more and more unclear.

In the evening, Ji Heng's trumpet sent an invitation to Wu Bai's account online to form a team to rank together.

After Wu Bai entered the group, he saw Ji Heng directly click to start, and seemed to ask inadvertently: "Just the two of us?" ”

Ji Heng's hand holding the mouse tightened involuntarily: "Yes, our brothers haven't played together for a long time." How? ”

Wu Bai said after a while: "The last time we fought together should be the day the training camp ended." ”

The memories of both seem to run back to the time of the training camp, the 17-year-old youth, and now think about it, ignorant and simple, ignorant and fearless.

At that time, Ji Heng's mother didn't agree with Ji Heng to go to the training camp at first, Ji Heng quarreled with his family, and he had no money, so he relied on Wu Bai for the past two months. Their skills at that time were not good, once they met a strong opponent, one was killed by others overnight and knelt for sixteen consecutive knees, and the next day they were scolded half to death by the captain of the training camp with a big black circle.

"Think about it at that time, it's good that you helped me pay for the food, or I would have given in to my mother if I didn't do it." Ji Heng said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, why don't you have a penny, I can't hold on to the back and want to run away." Wu Bai also laughed.

"You seemed to be very happy at that time." Ji Heng said

"Well, you played with me at that time, and Nono was there." When Wu Bai said this, it was like telling someone else's story, and his voice was very flat.

"Are you still in touch?" Ji Heng couldn't help asking.

"Nope." Wu Bai replied. "What? Are you trying to introduce me to a girlfriend? ”

There was a smile on the corner of Ji Heng's mouth: "I don't know you yet, you will only pursue what you like bitterly, and you will not ask others to hand it to you." But what kind of girl do you really like? I still don't understand it. ”

At this time, the characters in Wu Bai's game cut off the opponent's mid laner at this time, and the hand speed did not pause at all. "It should be mature and sensible, sexy and gentle. You know I like people who are a little older than me. At this time, he in front of the computer was not as calm and breezy as he seemed in the game, his good-looking eyebrows had been slightly wrinkled, and the corners of his tightly pursed mouth looked a little nervous.

Ji Heng's heart seemed to be relieved, he was in a good mood to push off the opponent's highland tower, and continued: "Let's arrange another game." ”

"Okay." Wu Bai said lightly.

The pace of the playoffs was fast, and under the high-intensity competition and training, the 23-year-old Sun Haoying had his first physical problems, and when he woke up one morning, he felt like the world was spinning and fell directly to the floor.

The people of the team were frightened, and quickly called 120 to send him to the hospital, and the results were fine, it was peripheral vertigo, although it is a benign disease, but it is necessary to recuperate for a period of time, during this time, you can't be tired, you can't stay up late, you can't wear headphones, otherwise you may relapse at any time.

"It's over, I'm dizzy when I twist my head a little now. This looks like the final is coming, how to do it. Sun Haoying wore a fixer around his neck and said miserably.

"Brother Sun, don't worry, take care of your body. Isn't there still flying? Ji Heng comforted him with a smile in his mouth, but he also beat a drum in his heart. Although Meng Feiyang has been on the bench for a while and has played a lot of training matches, he has not yet played an official game. Originally, the plan was to let him practice in the regular season of the summer season, but now he has to catch the ducks on the shelves.

In the afternoon, Coach Wang and Ji Heng brought Meng Feiyang to the conference room and officially told him that he was going to participate in the second day's competition, which was a game equivalent to the semi-finals, and as long as EVE won, he could directly enter the final round. This time they faced an old powerhouse, the Shijia team.

It's hard to describe what their strengths are, but every one of them is a tough one, and each of them is like a Kenyan athlete who is good at long-distance running, and he will play until the end of every race. In this year's regular season, Eve also lost to them once.

"Feiyang, tomorrow's game, don't be burdened, as long as you play your own style." This is Ji Heng's advice to Meng Feiyang when he walked out of the conference room.

"Oh, I'll go, Feiyang, are you going to scare me to death?" Early the next morning, Ah Kun, who got up to look for something to eat, shouted in the kitchen.

Hearing his shout, Xiao K and Ji Heng on the second floor hurriedly ran down and saw Meng Feiyang sitting in the corner of the dark kitchen, holding a bottle of yogurt, looking at Ah Kun innocently.

"What's wrong? You didn't sleep? Ji Heng turned on the light and was startled when he saw the dark blue on Meng Feiyang's eyes.

"I slept for two hours and couldn't sleep again. Brother Heng, I'm afraid... Meng Feiyang was sad and continued to drink yogurt.

"Was he anxious before the game?" Xiao K turned his head and looked at Ji Heng and asked.

Ji Heng stroked his forehead, he really overestimated Meng Feiyang's mental capacity. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and went out to make a phone call, and soon the team doctor came to the base. Ji Heng and the team doctor discussed for a while, and the team doctor called Meng Feiyang over, saying that he wanted to treat him.

The team doctor took out an instrument and brought it to Meng Feiyang, and after a while, he took some medicine for him to eat.

"Brother Heng, what kind of treatment is this, the divine doctor... Little K said in amazement on the side.

"It's cutting-edge technology." Ji Heng squeezed his eyes mysteriously, in fact, this was the idea that his father gave him on the phone just now, Ji Heng's father is a child psychologist, and he has some unique psychological suggestion therapy for this anxiety disorder. Just now, the team doctor used an ordinary cervical spine treatment instrument for Meng Feiyang, and he just ate some ordinary multidimensional tablets. But after this series of seemingly meaningful actions, Meng Feiyang's state has been much better.

When he arrived at the arena, Ren Tian ran to Feiyang's side and said, "Feiyang, don't be nervous, the captain told me that if you lose, you will throw the pot at him." When Ji Heng heard her words, he turned around and grabbed her pigtails, and she ran away with a smile.

"Captain, is it really possible?" Meng Feiyang may not be very conscious today, so he asked seriously.

Ji Heng gave him a back that he hadn't heard anything.

The Shijia team is really tenacious, in the first game, the heads of both sides were killed to 35:20, EVE maintained the lead with an overwhelming head advantage, and the opponent's highland tower was also pulled out by them, but they just couldn't take the crystal alive.

"Hey, Captain, I feel like I'm leaving this beautiful world. Tired! Little K called in the channel.

In fact, the problem of this game is mainly on Meng Feiyang's side, although he has a very strong level of line clearance, but he can see it when the experience requirements for the upper order are relatively high when he opens a group in the upper land, and he is always a little hot.

"No, I feel that the damage can't keep up, so if we are wiped out by them once, we will be overturned." Ah Kun is also complaining.

"Feiyang, you all out of the outfit and sold the meat." Ji Heng looked at the equipment column at this time and said.

“? Full output? Didn't I die all at once? Meng Feiyang said hesitantly.

"Listen to the command, go out and outfit, and wait for my command to output with all your might. If you lose, it's mine. Ji Heng ordered.

Meng Feiyang seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, sold the three meat suits on his body, and came out of the output staff and shoes and hats, and when the group started again, the team's damage really rose a lot, but unfortunately, Meng Feiyang's people were too brittle, and they were soon killed by the other party's fire, and eve became 4 to 5 at this time, but the output of the first wave of high explosion also basically beat the other party into residual blood, and at the moment when the enemy wanted to escape into the crystal, all the heroes of Ji Heng and several people were taken away, and EVE finally won the game.

When everyone entered the lounge, Meng Feiyang was still feeling guilty about the first death in his last team battle. Ji Heng came over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Feiyang is today's hero. ”

Meng Feiyang lowered his head in shame: "Captain, don't comfort me, I died the earliest." ”

Ji Heng looked serious: "Seriously, their style of play is a typical war of attrition, you see that their C position is all out of the half-meat suit, it's really disgusting." So I thought we might as well disrupt their rhythm with an output point they didn't think of, and you just played really well, and the first wave of the outbreak left them with little blood, and they couldn't afford to burn it if they couldn't hold it. ”

The rest of the team thought about it, and it was really the truth, and Coach Wang also said with a smile: "Haoying won't work if he fights, he is different from Feiyang's style of play, Feiyang's output is his personal strength, and the blood on the opposite side of the wave just now is like a waterfall." ”

Meng Feiyang was praised by the captain and coach, and laughed excitedly, and the nervousness before the start of the game had been swept away.

On this afternoon, EVE finally won the match with Shijia, and compared to winning this game, Ji Heng felt that Meng Feiyang's growth was a greater gain for the team.
