After connecting the phone, Uzi was obviously in a hurry, and after hearing Lee Sang-hyuk's voice, he immediately said in an anxious tone on the other end of the phone, "Brother, it's not good, Brother Topa is sick." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Sick?" Lee Sang-hyuk, who was sitting on the shuttle, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"I don't know, Maddlife received a call from Dopa's mother this morning, saying that she was sick and is now on an intravenous drip in the hospital." Because today is the day of the game, Uzi's tone became even more anxious after he finished speaking.

"What's the situation, is it serious?" Lee Sang-hyuk heard Uzi's more and more chaotic talking, and couldn't help but ask in a different way.

"Hmm... It seems to be a cold... It shouldn't be serious... But this is the first game in the afternoon. At the end, Uzi couldn't help but say with some worry, "I'm afraid that even if Brother Dida comes over in time, it will affect his performance, and..."

Before Uzi finished speaking, Madlife's voice suddenly rang on the phone, and he said in Korean, "I just called and asked, my aunt said that it was a gastrointestinal cold, Dopa woke up early in the morning with diarrhea and fever, and now I am on a drip in the hospital, and Uzi and I are on our way to visit the hospital." ”

On the phone, Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't help but fall into deep thought for a while after confirming that there was nothing too big a problem with Dopa.

Because the disadvantages of their new team not having a substitute are evident at this time, if Dopa can't be there this afternoon, then according to OGN's format, their team's match against CJ this afternoon will be considered an automatic loss.

This is undoubtedly extremely unfavorable for ES.M, which is now in a morale boom and has been winning in a row!

And at this time, even if you want to find a temporary substitute midlaner, it is too late, because according to the OGN competition system, all the team members, including the substitutes, must be reported to the organizer half a month in advance.

.......

Thinking of this, Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't help but rub his eyebrows, and now that it seems, he can only hope that Dopa's illness will get better soon, and he will come to the scene in time for the start of the game at one o'clock in the afternoon.

However, before that, he still had a glimmer of hope and called the person in charge of the organizer of OGN, explained the reason, and asked if he could change and adjust the schedule.

After patiently listening to Lee Sang-hyuk's words, the person in charge on the other end of the phone had to express his apologies very tactfully because of Lee Sang-hyuk's current fame.

Lee Sang-hyuk heard that it was also expected, after all, the OGN competition system is extremely rigorous, and even if the player is late to go to the toilet during the game, there will be a penalty for banning in the next game, not to mention adjusting the schedule, it is basically impossible because of the player's personal reasons.

.......

Seeing that the schedule could not be adjusted, Lee Sang-hyuk had nothing to do for a while, although he wanted to call S.M's side to see if there was a way to operate through the upper management, but this obviously violated the spirit of fairness and justice in e-sports, so Lee Sang-hyuk's idea was only a little together, so he immediately gave up.

When he arrived at the ES.M Club base in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, and opened the gate of the base, Lee Sang-hyuk found that Choi Hyun-wook was the only one sitting alone in front of the base's computer doing a "warm-up practice" for the afternoon game.

Lee Sang-hyuk told Choi Hyun-wook about the sudden news, but Choi Hyun-wook, who had always been silent, just listened silently at the moment, and when Lee Sang-hyuk said, "This afternoon's game may be directly judged to be lost", Choi Hyun-wook's fingers on the keyboard paused, and then returned to normal and continued to practice.

Lee Sang-hyuk has been watching Choi Hyun-wook's reaction, and when he sees his performance, he can't help but be very satisfied.

After all, it is very important for an e-sports player to not be disturbed by the outside world and always maintain a normal and stable competitive mentality.

If it was an ordinary player, he would have heard that he might be directly judged to lose in the afternoon game, and it is estimated that he would have no heart to practice for a long time, so Choi Hyun Wook's performance made Lee Sang-hyuk appreciate and be satisfied.

.......

Seeing that Choi Hyun-wook was still practicing, Lee Sang-hyuk had nothing to do here, so he naturally sat in front of the computer and practiced, but due to the habits he developed in his previous life, his pre-game practice was often some small games that tested his hand speed and reaction, rather than opening League of Legends to rank for a game.

By almost noon, ES. There was movement at the door of the M Club base, and Lee Sang-hyuk looked at it, and sure enough, Uzi and Madlife, who had gone to visit Dopa, had returned.

At this moment, it is almost summer in South Korea, and the two of them are running back and forth outside, and when they come back, they are naturally sweaty, especially Uzi, a little fat man, who is tired like a puppy after coming back, and sits on the chair, lying on the back of the chair and panting.

Madlife didn't sit down when he entered the door, but went to the refrigerator to get two bottles of water, walked over to Uzi and threw him a bottle, and then pulled over a chair and sat down next to Uzi.

......

Lee Sang-hyuk, who was in front of the computer, waited until the two of them sat down to catch their breath and rested for a while, then turned around and asked, "How is Dopa's situation, can you come during the afternoon game?" ”

Madlife took a sip of water, wiped his mouth, and said with a reluctant smile, "The diarrhea has improved a lot, but the fever has not completely subsided, and the doctor said to recuperate, but Topa has been making trouble and has to be discharged from the hospital." ”

Madlife paused at this point, and then continued, "I don't think my aunt is too worried about him, and probably doesn't want Topa to be discharged from the hospital, so I comforted Topa to recuperate first, and then wait for the fever to go down completely." ”

"So... It's good. After listening to this, Lee Sang-hyuk thought quietly for a while, and couldn't help clapping his hands and said with a smile, "Everyone be mentally prepared, whether Topa comes this afternoon or not, we will go to the scene, since you can accept the cheers of victory if you win, then you must accept defeat if you lose." ”

"What kind of failure is this?" Choi Hyun-wook, who was on the side, heard Lee Sang-hyuk's words, but said out loud in a rare voice.

Lee Sang-hyuk smiled when he heard this, shook his head and said, "It doesn't count any way, if you lose, you lose, and if you lose, you lose." ”
