Chapter 447: Opening Ceremony!

The white horse passes by, and the years pass.

A few dark nights then lit up, and the final was officially here.

Xu Ruoguang got up very early on this day.

The day before every big competition, he would go to bed very early, just to have a good state and recharge his energy.

kicked Xu Xiu, who was still asleep, and Xu Ruoguang slowly but seriously put on his team uniform.

He gently stroked UR's team logo, and the climber looked up, serious and calm.

"Brother Guang?"

"Get up, go to the scene."

"Oh."

Xu Xiu got up in a daze and got dressed by instinct.

Xu Ruoguang didn't pay attention to him, but calmly sorted out the neckline and cuffs in front of the mirror.

As the cuffs became regular, Xu Ruoguang rubbed his hair casually and went into the bathroom to wash.

After he finished brushing his teeth, Xu Xiu was officially dressed.

Xu Ruoguang walked to the window, looking at the bright weather outside the window, and couldn't help but feel a lot better.

He likes rainy days, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like sunny days.

Fifteen minutes later, UR officially assembled and began to drive towards the final race venue.

Incheon, Munhak Stadium.

At this time, it was still very early, and many fans were already waiting outside the stadium.

The ticket inspection hasn't started yet, and they can't get in.

But that doesn't mean they can't wait outside the stadium for players to arrive.

Seeing the bus with the UR logo coming, many fans waved excitedly and began to cheer.

“Emporer,fighting!”

"UR, come on! You have to win! ”

"Brother Ruoguang, give me a hard rush!"

"Xiu'er, you must withstand the pressure today!"

Xu Xiu's face darkened, "Why do you cheer for you to let you rush hard, cheer for me to let me withstand the pressure?" It's kind of disgusting. ”

Xu Ruoguang laughed,

"I don't have a lot of pressure to play theshy, and you don't have a lot of pressure to play rookie?"

Xu Xiu smiled, "It's hard to say, I don't know if I can win or not, I'm no longer MSI's me." ”

It was only his first season when he was MSI, and Xu Xiu at that time could barely maintain a balance between the line and rookie, and he didn't move at all, let alone play an advantage.

However, Xu Xiu at that time found another way and used support heroes to avoid this problem.

And now, after a whole year of competition, Xu Xiu also has his own pride and self-confidence.

How can a big husband be depressed and live under others for a long time?!

Rookie, wait for me!

Facing Xu Xiu's self-confidence, Xu Ruoguang patted him on the shoulder and did not hit him.

"I believe you."

A clear voice sounded, and the calm remained.

But it turned into a warm current in Xu Xiu's heart.

Led by the Riot crew, UR entered the arena.

At this time, the venue had already begun rehearsals, and UR came to his lounge, not in a hurry to make tactical arrangements.

There are still more than five hours before the start of the game.

The weather in Incheon is very good, and standing in the lounge, you can see the dark crowd of audience seats outside the window.

Xu Ruoguang closed his eyes slightly, as if he had felt the earth-shattering cheers.

He plays this kind of game, only two words.

Enjoy.

The bigger the stage, the more excited he is to play and the better he plays.

"How's the view?"

Redmi is also a rare suit and leather shoes today, and her hair is also carefully waxed.

"Not bad, I can already see the cheers I had when I won the championship."

Xu Ruoguang turned around and said with a smile.

"Assi...... Champagne can't be opened. ”

Redmi shook her head a little speechlessly.

While the two were chatting, they suddenly heard the voice of the staff.

The next moment, Coco Lee walked in with a smile on his face.

"How's that, kids."

He smiled kindly and talked softly to the players.

Xu Ruoguang was a little stunned,

"Chairman Lee?"

"Would you be surprised to see me? Today is our No. 1 seed tournament, and I must come as the president. ”

Coco Lee chuckled,

"Emporer, play well in the final."

Of course Xu Ruoguang will be surprised, when S7 was playing in the Bird's Nest, no one came to Tengjing at all, and Qin Zhongze, who he knew, was also in charge of the opening ceremony, and his busy feet did not touch the ground.

"I will."

Xu Ruoguang nodded seriously,

This year's LCK does not pay attention to him, and he has taken care of both face and lining.

So much so that some LCK fans laughed and said that Emporer came back to LCK, because LCK found a father for himself.

For such attention, Xu Ruoguang was grateful and had already made up his mind.

Be sure to win.

Neither for the sake of LCK, but also for himself.

He's going to win.

"Don't have too much pressure, Ruoguang, I'll make it bigger, and call you Ruoguang."

Lee Min-hyuk gently patted him on the shoulder.

"We trust you, and the fans trust you, even if you lose this year, you can do it next year."

"We've got at least a year left in our time, aren't we?"

"You are the No. 1 seed in the LCK, our last hope, and the team we are most confident in, if you can't beat it, it can only be that we are not strong in our own right."

"Play well, play hard, and leave no regrets."

Li Minhe said it very easily, but Xu Ruoguang knew very well how much pressure he was on.

He is the one who strongly pushes Xu Ruoguang to return to the LCK, and once UR loses the S game this year, then he is afraid that he will be immediately liquidated by other oppositionists.

At that time, I am afraid that it will not only be as simple as abdicating in shame, but also more likely to be pulled out and whipped.

"I'll win."

didn't say anything else, Xu Ruoguang looked at him seriously and spoke softly,

A smile appeared on Lee Minhyuk's face and he nodded.

"I believe in you."

Time flickered, and it was afternoon.

The race is about to begin!

"Welcome to the 2018 League of Legends World Championship finals, which is about to take place at the highest level of S8, and the final winner will lift the summoner trophy and become the new king of the year!"

"Today's champion candidates are IG and UR, let's wait and see!"

The Korean commentator smiled brightly and spoke sonorously.

"Okay Summoners in front of the screen and in the field, welcome to the final stage of the 2018 World Championship, which is about to take place in the final final between IG and UR, the No. 1 seed in the LCK, in our region."

On the LPL side, Colonel Guan smiled brightly.

"Both teams have been very dominant so far, and IG has been getting better and better in the knockout stages, and I believe they still have the strength to fight against UR."

"Please wait a moment, the game is about to start!"

The commentary in Europe and the United States is even more exciting.

"How exciting it is that two very dominant teams at Worlds are about to decide the winner today!"

"The last time the two teams met was at this year's MSI, and the winner was UR, will today be another victory for UR, or will it be a revenge battle for IG?"

"Now, let's wait for the final to come!"

No matter which live broadcast platform, it has become a little stuck because of the massive barrage.

"IG kill me! Isn't it the No. 1 seed? It's not that I haven't won! ”

"Broiler, rush!"

"IG wins! IG awesome! ”

"The glory of the first division, IG must defend it!"

On the side of the Korean Open, it is naturally the cheering for UR.

"Invincible Lord Emporer, please keep attacking!"

"For our sake, please regain the championship that the LCK lost for two years!"

"Please, UR, you must win!"

"We've lost too much, UR, come on, LCK, win!"

And the audience in Europe and the United States, which should be neutral, is actually the UR that is mostly supported.

Why?

Because UR has Emporer.

UR has a lot of fans in Europe and the United States, but there are not many of them.

But Xu Ruoguang's personal fans are too many in Europe and the United States.

Europe and the United States are very fond of players like Xu Ruoguang who are terrifyingly capable of personal ability, and they are extremely fanatical about him.

It's not so much about supporting UR, in fact, it's better to say that they support whoever Xu Ruoguang is.

Suddenly, the screen went black.

With the advent of the countdown, everyone was in high spirits.

Here it comes!

"Ten!"

The audience began to count in unison.

On the screen, the members of the KDA girl group that Riot strongly promoted this year began to be revealed one after another.

"Nine!"

The original hero has been dressed up in KDA skin, and he has taken on a handsome pose.

"Eight!"

Evelyn, a widow hidden in the darkness, has a charming look in her eyes.

"Seven!"

KDA's Evelyn pushed her sunglasses and smiled wickedly.

"Six!"

In the smoke, Akali appeared quietly, turning her back to the audience with a sharp look in her eyes.

"Five!"

Accompanied by the rushing smoke, Akali picked up her kunai with glitter paint on her body.

"Four!"

Kai'Sa stood quietly, her hand slightly outstretched, as if trying to grasp something.

"Three!"

KDA's Kai'Sa smiled and showed off her perfect body sideways.

"Two!"

Ahri, who was holding the energy ball, had a serious expression.

"One!"

Ahri, who is transformed into KDA, opens the door and walks up.

"Zero!"

At the moment when the countdown clears, the 0 of the Arabic numerals becomes a door.

Ahri, walk to the stage!

That's MR technology!

Different from VR, MR technology is the mixed reality technology used by the S7 Bird's Nest, that is, projecting virtual things to the extent that they are visible to the naked eye.

And as Ahri walked to the stage, dynamic music began to play.

This is KDA's debut title song, "pop star"!

Tian Xiaojuan, who was wearing a down jacket, and the other three KDA singers walked to the stage with a smile on their faces and raised the microphone.

“NOW,it's KDA!”

The characteristic timbre is very catchy, and it immerses people in the song almost instantly.

In the song singing, the projected heroes are also constantly dancing, and the audio-visual experience is directly full.

At the end of the song, Ahri walked through the door again.

After passing through the door, Ahri was back to her original self.

In front of the big screen, the scene of the championship of the previous S competitions began to be revealed!

The members of S1 and FNC are smiling brightly, and they don't know how many people will be coveted by the trophy they have now received.

At that time, the S1 World Championship was still in the same form as the Internet Café Competition, because this FNC was also nicknamed the Internet Café Championship.

S2 has developed into a qualified world competition, and my country's TPA assassination star team is also happily winning the cup.

Among them, mid-laner Toyz is also smiling happily.

I don't know if he will think about this day when he goes to prison in the future?

S3, SKT won the championship, faker and his teammates picked up the trophy, the flowers fell, and their faces were high.

S4, the three-star white players with hats looked at the camera a little shyly and waved gently.

S5, Xu Ruoguang in his youth held the trophy high, beside him, faker quietly pushed his glasses, and on the big screen behind him, the head of Xu Ruoguang with his hands on his chest was revealed, next to which was a line of clear English letters:

FMVP:Emporer。

S6, Xu Ruoguang, who has risen in height again, is not as young as S5, at this time he is smiling, trotting to his teammates' side, accompanied by the falling flowers, in the FMVP selection behind him, it is still his handsome and calm face.

S7, in the bird's nest, the former teenager has become more and more mature, he gently stretched out his fist and pressed against the smiling faker beside him.

In the background, it is the crazy voice of European and American commentary.

"S7FMVP, Emporer again!"

Ahri raised his eyes and looked, behind the S7 screen, there were no more screens.

Rather, it is a trophy that constantly radiates a golden glow that soars into the sky.

The ground beneath his feet had begun to shatter.

Ahri's expression became serious, and he jumped over quickly, desperately grabbing the trophy in the last moment.

The ground shattered, and Ahri began to fall!

And she was still holding the trophy very carefully.

This is a small detail of the LCK's very meaningful setting.

For LCK, S6 and S7 were almost their nightmare two years.

In the past two years, the LCK has almost no results in international competitions, and all the championships have been won by the team led by Emporer, and they have been crushed almost without a fight.

And now in S8, Emporer, who had completed a stunning debut season in the LCK, has returned to the LCK.

Just like Ahri carefully holding the trophy, the LCK will also carefully protect Xu Ruoguang, a treasure that was once lost.

They firmly believe that Emporer is the ticket to the championship!

Ahri, as the hero of the Hanbok service, is also a symbol of the LCK.

That's why the LCK chose Ahri as the candidate.

Ahri, you're about to fall to the ground.

A smile appeared on her face.

Because underneath, there's a portal.

In the door, there is a young man with his eyes closed, sleeping in the wasteland.

He has a handsome face, but he doesn't care about the audience.

Because the audience has already recognized his identity.

“Emporer!”

Ahri had a happy look on his face and struggled to hand over the trophy in his hand.

This scene was also immediately made into a meme.

Brother Guang, look at what I brought you. JPG

The next moment, the theme song of the S8 World Finals, which is also recognized by most people as Xu Ruoguang's personal theme song, "RISE", sounded.

The boy opened his eyes.

On stage, the singers began to sing with a dynamic rhythm!

Xu Ruoguang stood quietly behind the stage and blinked.

"Is it necessary?"

To be honest, he really didn't expect that the LCK would have to brag about him even if he made a connecting animation.

Ahri handed him the trophy, and it was needless to say what it was hinting at.

"Haha, you're our LCK treasure."

Coco Lee laughed.

Xu Ruoguang shrugged, "There's no need to be like this all the time, it will attract hatred." ”

"If you win, you can't do it."

Li Minhe nodded, but said so.

Xu Ruoguang was silent for a moment.

"You're right."

"Players, it's time to play!"

The staff walked over, Xu Ruoguang stepped forward, and began to walk forward.

"Welcome to the scene, I am today's host, Quan Yongjun ——————!"

South Korea's veteran host, the famous Roaring Emperor Quan Yongjun, wore a white suit and said loudly.

"After nearly a month of competition, the last two strongest teams are finally standing here to compete for the final trophy of this year's S competition!"

"Now, let's welcome them to the field!"

He paused,

"The first team to appear is the top team from the LPL, I———GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!"

The IG players took to the stage one by one.

With his hands behind his back, he stood on one side of the stage.

“TOP,Theshy!”

Cheng Lu waved his hand a little shyly, he was still not used to this kind of introduction, let alone talking about Cheng Lu's shaking, it was fake.

“TOP,Duke!”

Duke who had been with Xu Ruoguang for an era waved his hand calmly, and his face was the confidence and calmness unique to veteran players.

It's a bit like that adult, I won't say who it is, it's going to explode.

“JUG,Ning!”

King Ning was expressionless and waved his hand.

He was also a little dignified about the upcoming confrontation with Canyon, but that was all.

He is rather unlikely to doubt himself.

If Ning's self-confidence is given to Xiaotian, both of them can have better results, but unfortunately they can't be divided.

“MID,Rookie!”

Song Yijin smiled brightly, and he could see that he was in a good mood.

S5 is the absolute core of IG, he is still in the playoffs in the previous seasons, he never thought that he could still enter the finals of the S competition, so he was naturally very happy.

Although UR is strong, rookie also has a reason to win,

He is deeply aware that this year may be the only opportunity in his life.

“AD,jackeylove!”

Ah Shui's expression was even more calm.

For him, the final has been played more than once, so naturally it is impossible to be too nervous.

“SUP,Baolan!”

Sapphire pushed her glasses, her expression becoming much more serious.

For a long time, he is the one who has been questioned the most among the five IG people.

Even after playing in the World Championship now, there are still many people who feel that he is not worthy of staying at IG.

Sapphire has nothing to say, so she can only continue to work hard in secret.

"Head Coach, Kim Kyung-so!"

The final manager looked equally serious.

Kim Kyung-so knows very well that today's game is not so easy to win.

But he is more convinced that IG is not so easy to be defeated.

After introducing IG, it was natural. It was the turn of the other team today.

"Next, let me introduce you!"

"The team that will compete with IG for the final trophy!"

“U————RRRRRRRRRRRRR!”

Quan Yongjun took the microphone, raised his hand, and roared loudly.

“THE TOP STAR,EEEEEEEEmporer!”

With the spotlight shining, Xu Ruoguang gently waved his hand with a calm and calm smile on his face.

At this moment, in the stadium, where there has been not much sound, there was a burst of earth-shattering cheers and cheers.

The Korean audience gave Xu Ruoguang enough respect and expressed their love for him in their own way.

“Emporer!!!!!”

"Wakamitsu !!!!"

"Ahh

Endless cheers rang out, leaving the audience who were not there jaw-dropping.

That's why it's called Emporer in this era!

There's no one who doesn't like Emporer!

In the face of the sudden cheers, Xu Ruoguang couldn't help but laughed.

With his smile, the cheers grew louder and louder.

"My mother, Brother Guang's popularity is really exaggerated."

King Ning sighed quietly.

"He's strong, he's worth it."

Theshy said earnestly.

Although his Chinese is still not very good, the meaning is quite clear at this time.

Xu Ruoguang is so strong, he really deserves this kind of cheer.

Even theshy thinks so.

When the host introduced theshy, he said top, which means to be on the list.

When Xu Ruoguang was introduced, he was the top star, the top star.

Theshy didn't see anything wrong with it.

For Xu Ruoguang's achievements, this is the privilege he should have, which Xu Ruoguang has won in exchange for ruling the League of Legends year after year.

If he had any ideas, theshy's only thought was: I want to be like that, too.

“JUN,Canyon!”

Although it is the first year that Canyon has played such a top-notch stage, it is still calm and calm.

Canyon has never been a player who is afraid of big games, and the more critical the game, the better he plays, and the easier it is to play very well.

So standing beside Xu Ruoguang at this moment, he didn't panic at all.

“MID,Showmaker!”

Xu Xiu pushed his glasses, revealing a confident and high-spirited smile.

After a year's hard work, I finally stood here.

From now on, it's time for him to really fight for the honor of the LCK.

Just like Rookie has been longing for this day for a long, long time, Xu Xiu's yearning and expectation for today is no less than Rookie!

The honor lost by the LCK, let us UR, get it back with our own hands.

That's what he thinks.

“AD carry,Uzi!”

Uzi looked solemn and waved his hand.

Since S7 left the LPL, he has also been chased and scolded by some fans of RNG for a long time, until MSI won IG, and there was less such a voice.

For Uzi, who has been chasing the title all his life, he is well aware of his physical condition.

This year, I am afraid that it is the last time in his life that he still has the ability to touch this last trophy.

He's ready.

“AD carry,Ghost!”

The ghost smiled very immaturely.

He's not like Uzi, he's in the first year of his career,

For the ghost who has been shut out by many clubs, his only thought now is to win this championship and slap the face of those who once said to him that you are not a qualified carry core!

That's how I play Ghost!

You say I'm not the core?

But I just can win, I can not only win, I can also choose skins.

Are you worthy to say that I can't?

“SUP,Beryl!”

Beryl is probably the most calm person on the field.

He knows very well that as long as he doesn't have problems playing, UR will have no difficulty defeating IG, because he looks down on Baolan.

Beryl has always been crazy.

Later generations asked him, what kind of player do you think Keria is?

Beryl smiled at the time, "I don't understand, I'm not interested." ”

This interview also caused some waves on the LCK side.

In fact, he is such a person, and he really has no interest in the defeat of his men every year.

"Coach, homme!"

Redmi's expression is calm, purely pretending to be a master.

He was actually a former champion coach, but he wasn't the head coach at the time.

And this time, he was the only manager.

He also has enough confidence in UR.

The contestants on both sides of the stage stood in a V shape.

Jeon let out a final roar.

"S8 World Finals Finals, IG, vs. UR!"

"Now, let's go!"
