On the evening of the end of the game, when they were all eating, Liu Zijian called to ask for details.

In addition to running the club, he has a lot of other things to do, and he is relatively busy, so he did not attend the second round of the group stage and the quarterfinals.

Even on the phone, everyone could hear the joy between Liu Zijian's words, and feel happy and proud for them from the bottom of their hearts.

To be honest, reaching the semifinals was not expected in advance for Liu Zijian.

Their team, which has just been promoted from the LSP this year, has gone through three consecutive jumps and entered the World Championships.

If you think about it carefully, the five people have no veteran players, they are all "rookie eggs", and they have no experience in any competitions.

Not to mention outsiders, in Liu Zijian's own opinion, they all seem too young for the huge stage of this S series.

In his original presupposition, SSR was aiming for the quarterfinals this year, and being able to qualify for the group stage was enough to satisfy him.

And now, without any warning, Lin Han and they actually successfully reached the semi-finals with a gesture of :0, which has far exceeded his expectations.

What could make him happier than that?

On the phone, Liu Zijian kept sending blessings to the team members, and did not hesitate to praise them, which made Lin Han and them a little embarrassed.

"It's been a good adjustment these days." Liu Zijian said on the phone, "When the time comes, I will go to New York for the semi-finals to cheer you on." ”

When Lin Han heard this, he said happily: "Brother Liu, you want to come to the scene to supervise the battle?" It's over, the pressure is coming. ”

"Hey, don't think so." Liu Zijian hurriedly said, "I'm not here to put pressure on you, you can relax, it's enough to fight hard, don't think too much about the rest." ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

"I know, I know, don't worry, Brother Liu." Lin Han smiled and said, "I'm kidding." ”

After dinner at an outside restaurant, the group returned to the hotel, got together, and had a post-game meeting as is customary.

First of all, the discussion of today's games, the more the five people talked, the more excited they became, excitedly using their hands and feet, their faces were flushed, and their interest was very high, and they were still reminiscing about the afterglow brought by the end of this BO5 fight.

After all, this is the first time that their team has achieved such good results in a major event, and it is a bit foggy, as if they have not yet come out of a dream.

After a long time, most of the energy was consumed, and gradually fell silent, and after a pause, they began to talk about the next schedule.

Their game is on October 2nd, six days later.

When the time comes, they will face LK's No. 1 seed, Rox Tiger.

Thinking of this, they gradually began to be quiet and think clearly.

"Tigers?" Hao Ren clasped the back of his head with both hands and leaned back in his chair.

"Well, the situation is very serious."

As soon as Han Xin said this, he realized that he seemed to have said nonsense.

As the No. 1 seed in the South Korean LK region, they all know how strong the S6 World Championship is the favorite to win the S6 World Championship.

In the group stage, including the quarterfinals, Rox Tiger's strong performance was obvious to all.

Especially in the BO5 against EDG, the scene of defeating the opponent with an absolutely crushing posture is vivid.

When I think of the training matches they played with EDG before, they always lost more and won less, so it is calculated

"Besides, it looks like our team has been surrounded." Qin Tianyu said suddenly.

Everyone was stunned.

Not to say they didn't realize it.

It's really.

At present, the four teams in the top four, SKT, ROX and SSG, are all teams from the LK region, and only one of them is the third seed in the LPL

Suddenly, it felt like I was alone.

The dominance and influence of the Korean division is still there.

Even if they look at it from their own perspective, they know that the lies ahead are difficult.

This is not pessimism, but the facts are in front of everyone, and we have to face them squarely.

For a moment, the room was silent.

"Didn't Mr. Liu say it on the phone before? Let's take it easy. ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little cold, Coach Zhou hurriedly said: "Now that we have reached the semifinals, it is better to go forward, but don't give yourself a hint and force yourself not to lose or whatever, this kind of psychology is unacceptable, but it will hinder us from moving forward and become a burden." ”

Everyone was stunned.

Thinking carefully about the words of the coach, I knew that he was right.

Hao Ren said: "Coach, let me sum up, that is, we are now winning blood and earning, and losing or not?" ”

"Ugh"

Coach Zhou was stunned and nodded reluctantly: "That's pretty much what it means." ”

Hahaha!

Suddenly, everyone laughed again.

"Yes." Han Xin smiled hesitantly, "Thinking about it like this, I feel a lot more comfortable and less entangled." ”

Qin Tianyu said: "Indeed, you have to be optimistic, after all, the opposite side is the No. 1 seed of LK, if we knock them over, it will be our bull, and on the contrary, even if we are knocked over, it seems to be normal." ”

Xiang Yuxuan said, "That makes sense. ”

The spirit of optimism spread among the crowd, and all of a sudden the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

A group of people continued to talk for a while, and then went back to rest, and other details about the next game were put to study in the next few days, which was very long, and there was time to prepare.

At around 10 o'clock in the evening, Lin Han couldn't sleep in his room, so he walked out of the hotel and went for a walk outside.

It was also his last night in Chicago, as he would be flying to New York tomorrow and the semifinals would be held there.

In a foreign country, in this strange enemy, Lin Han didn't dare to go too far, just took a stroll around the hotel.

Wandering all the way, passing a convenience store, I walked in and bought a can of Coke, opened the can-pull, took a sip, and felt the impact of the stimulus brought by the entrance of the carbonated drink, and suddenly the whole person was much clearer.

Continue to wander around the road for a while.

"Host, it is recommended to rest early and not sleep too late."

The voice of the system suddenly sounded in my head.

"Well, I'll go back to sleep after drinking this can of Coke."

Lin Han responded, and asked again: "System, fight Rox Tiger, can we win?" Or rather, what are the odds of winning? ”

"Why does the host keep asking me questions like this?" The voice of the system came.

Lin Han paused for a moment and thought for a while: "Because I don't have a bottom in my heart?" ”

The system told him: "Then I will answer you clearly, I don't know, because I can't calculate the outcome of the game, maybe 100 percent, maybe 00 percent, the field is full of all kinds of uncertain factors, everything can happen." ”

"Really? Understand. ”

Lin Han chattered as he threw the can into the trash can next to him.

The figure faded into obscurity under the flickering lights of the city
