"Tomorrow is the final."

"Hmm."

Looking at the sunset, Xu Ruoguang leaned on the railing and stretched his body slightly.

"There's nothing to say, just win."

KKOMA, who was also standing beside him, loosened his wrist and asked with some curiosity.

"What are you going to play tomorrow?"

"You're the coach, you ask me?"

"Haha."

Kkoma laughed.

"It's time to win and play anything, and it's a must to win the No. 1 seed."

Xu Ruoguang opened his mouth casually.

"Actually, Smeb is quite pitiful, and he touched you."

Kkoma shook his head and spoke with some pity.

As an equally excellent top orderer, if it weren't for Xu Ruoguang, SMEB's current achievements would not be just what they are now.

At least that's what KKOMA thinks.

In the past few years, I have encountered Xu Ruoguang's orders, which are a little too unlucky.

"I don't think so."

Xu Ruoguang didn't think so.

He was beaming and smiling.

"If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have been under so much pressure to think about progress, and naturally he wouldn't be able to go where he is today."

"It also makes sense, really decided, take a break next year?"

"Ah, it's so boring."

Xu Ruoguang said.

"I don't have any opponents anymore, and Smeb and Theshy, who I once had high hopes for, now seem to ...... That's it. ”

"Can't put any pressure on me."

"It's already a little boring, their intensity is too low now."

He looked a little pityful.

It's fun to fight with people.

But Xu Ruoguang has had no opponent a long time ago.

Because the year he debuted, he stepped on Marin's position.

Originally, after S8 heard theshy rising in the LPL, Xu Ruoguang was still very happy.

Could it be that there can finally be an opponent?

But he was disappointed after the World Championship.

But that's it.

Overall, it's a top laner at the same level as Marin.,A little more aggressive.,A little weaker anti-gank.。

That's just it, it doesn't put much pressure on him.

kkoma：……

Kkoma said that this request was too much.

From KKOMA's point of view, what kind of top order is Xu Ruoguang?

Talent, needless to say, is definitely at the level of the past generations, even if Xu Ruoguang is rotten, he can look forward to the ruthless role of the champion with talent alone,

attitude, even more exaggerated.

After winning the championship, he is still maintaining this rank that is more exaggerated than the rookie players who work hard, which is outrageous.

character, there is no one who has fought who does not miss being a teammate with him, even if the opponent who lost to him also admires him.

Riot ran an event at the beginning of this year's summer season.

Specifically, it is a questionnaire.

And the two questions in this questionnaire are very interesting.

Q: Who would you most like to beat?

Jungler, mid laner, AD, including support.

There are different answers.

However, when it was the turn of the top laner, all the players in all regions filled in the same ID: Emporer.

The second question,

Q: If you were given a chance to reopen, which player would you most like to be teammates with?

This time, even the players who are also in the top single position are very decisive to write down Xu Ruoguang's ID.

Smeb's answer at the time was very interesting: "If there is anyone who can ask me to voluntarily give up the position of top laner, it is only him." Others? Unworthy. ”

With such a hard-working, talented and self-conscious player, it's really hard to imagine that KKOMA will be able to beat him.

So when he heard Xu Ruoguang say that it was a pity, KKOMA's first reaction was...... Aren't you entertaining your family?

If you want to compete on the same stage, you must be a top talent, and you have to play until 4 o'clock in the morning every day.

Do you know how high the bar is?

"Actually, if I win all the time, it will consume my enthusiasm, but fortunately, the money will not."

Xu Ruoguang seemed to guess what he was thinking and said with a smile.

KKOMA twitched, "That's too straightforward." ”

"Originally, I played professionally for money, and I won until now just because I don't like the feeling of losing."

Xu Ruoguang spread his hands and spoke frankly.

He knew all too well what it was like to be poor.

It was a feeling he never wanted to experience again.

The so-called ideal, the so-called sense of honor.

It's okay to lie to buddies, don't lie to yourself.

Xu Ruoguang felt that he had no sense of honor.

But he just satisfied the sense of honor of all those who supported him.

It can also be said that creation has made people.

Xu Ruoguang doesn't like to ennoble one thing.

Just like many people obviously can't find a way to rise, so they can only do those hard work,

But some people want to be glorified, "hardworking",

Then those grandfathers sighed when they saw the bottom, and then shed some crocodile tears.

"They work too hard, so envious of the people who work hard for their dreams, they are too charming and spicy."

Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, are you going to work hard?

It is never suffering that needs to be celebrated.

Xu Ruoguang's original purpose of playing the profession was to earn rice, and it has not changed until now.

It's just that he has more options.

Honor? By the way.

So he doesn't think he is great, every time he meets a fan offline, no matter what the requirements are, as long as it is reasonable, Xu Ruoguang will try his best to meet them.

Because he knows very well that he is not a man,

Fans like him because they can afford him.

As for not engaging in any other crooked ways, it is also a truth.

I earn so much rice, so many people like me, believe me.

Xu Ruoguang didn't train hard, he felt that he couldn't hold the money steadily.

Earn rice, he is serious.

"It's really hard to fail, but I'm afraid Sanghyuk will be very uncomfortable next year."

KKOMA nodded approvingly, then sighed.

"Is Khan really going to serve in the military?"

"Hmm."

"Why don't Lee Sang-hyuk go?"

kkoma：？？

"Hey, hey, he's a former teammate, there's no need to be so malicious to him."

"Just kidding."

Xu Ruoguang smiled.

How could Lee Sang-hyuk go to military service? He didn't want to.

I'll have to come over and be his best man after that, right?

"You."

Kkoma shook his head and put his hands in his pockets, "Let's go, wait a minute, remember to prepare for tomorrow's tactics, and go to bed early today." ”

"Hmm."

Xu Ruo didn't reply with a bald head, and waved his hand.

For a long time, he muttered.

"Lee Sang-hyuk ......"

"Thank you S6 for your trust."

"Wait until I get back......"

The phone rang, disrupting his thoughts.

Xu Ruoguang took out his mobile phone with some surprise.

There are not many people who call him at this time, and generally people who don't know him well don't have his phone.

took out his mobile phone and glanced at the contact, Xu Ruoguang smiled and put the phone to his ear.

"Hello?"

"Is it Brother Ruoguang?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was a little nervous.

"What's the matter? Jing Hao. ”

Xu Ruoguang asked softly.

It was a call from SMEB.

Although SMEB has been defeated repeatedly on the field, it does not prevent the relationship between the two of them is really okay.

Xu Ruoguang was a little strange why SMEB signaled him before the game.

“……”

After a moment of silence, SMEB spoke.

"Do you remember the first time we played each other?"

"Remember, Riven beat Yasuo."

Xu Ruoguang said with a smile,

"Of course, I won."

Smeb：……

"Brother, I don't need you to emphasize, I know."

Smeb smiled helplessly.

This brother is really annoying when he talks sometimes.

"Tomorrow, let's do it again, if I have the opportunity and the lineup supports, I will choose again."

Xu Ruoguang raised his eyebrows, "Do you count this as leaking BP?" ”

Smeb laughed, "What kind of leak BP is this?" I just wanted to choose, and the coach didn't let me know it, and I only said that I wanted to play. ”

"Brother Ruoguang, let's do it again, if I choose first."

"So confident?"

"Well, if I still lose this year, my S10 will retire."

Smeb calmly uttered the news that no one knew except him.

Xu Ruoguang was the first to know.

"It's been almost five years, right? S5，S6，S7，S8，S9。 ”

He sighed a little.

"I haven't even beaten you once."

"It's time to give up, I'm going to do military service too."

Xu Ruoguang's originally relaxed smile has disappeared.

It's hard to say how he's feeling right now.

From Xu Ruoguang's point of view, SMEB is not a particularly special friend.

However, he is really the professional player that Xu Ruoguang knows the most.

Friend or foe, that's it.

Is such a person going to retire after all?

Xu Ruoguang put away some complicated emotions and spoke.

"It's already decided?"

"Hmm."

Smeb said with a smile,

"At least, in terms of who retires first, I should have won you, Xu Ruoguang."

Xu Ruoguang smiled silently, "Ah, yes." ”

"This time, you're the one who wins."

Smeb was smiling happily.

His teammates had never seen him smile so happily and were a little puzzled.

"By the way, brother, please do one thing."

Smeb spoke.

"Huh?"

"Before I serve, can I trouble you to solo with me again?"

Smeb requested,

"Please."

Xu Ruoguang rubbed his face, "Okay." ”

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"No water."

"Okay."

Hanging up the phone, Xu Ruoguang fell into deep thought.

Am I being too aggressive?

Seeing that Smeb cared so much, Xu Ruoguang really didn't expect it.

Because for him, whoever wins is the same.

I really don't have any special ideas.

Shaking his head, Xu Ruoguang didn't think much about it.

Tomorrow's game is the most important thing.

After all, the LCK Summer champion also has a bonus.

He walked downstairs and stepped into the training room.

The next day, Xu Ruoguang got up very early.

Yesterday he rested very early, and KKOMA stopped him from continuing to rank, and even locked the door of the training room for fear that he would sneak up and practice.

It's outrageous.

After putting on the short sleeves inside, I stroked the jacket with my ID printed on it and put it on gently.

Straighten up the cuffs in front of the mirror,

The handsome young man in the mirror has sharp and confident eyes, as always.

Xu Ruoguang nodded with satisfaction, followed his teammates who got up one after another, and walked to the hall on the first floor of UR.

At this time, kkoma, who was also in a suit and leather shoes, was already standing there calmly.

It didn't take long for the UR to be assembled.

KKOMA clapped his hands, and the discussion between the players stopped.

"Kids, it's the final round."

kkoma smiled and spoke,

"We did it, from fifth, to the final, which is amazing, isn't it?"

"Yes!"

Xu Xiu was very applauded and applauded with a smile.

"Today's opponent is KT, and it's also our old opponent, or our defeated opponent."

Kkoma said lightly,

"It's time to send them another defeat."

"Children, I don't have much to say, because I have absolute trust in you, and I believe that you can definitely win, because our hard power is definitely above them!"

"As long as we play normally, KT is like that."

"Play well and don't regret it later because of today, that's what I want to say!"

Kkoma held out his right hand and smiled.

"Come on, kids."

Hand after hand, on his hand,

The top is naturally Xu Ruoguang.

KKOMA's expression became solemn

“UR！”

For the first time, he lost his gentlemanly demeanor, and roared like this.

"Invincible!"

"Invincible!"

"Invincible!"

All the contestants raised their hands and shouted in unison.

"Good! Let's go! ”

Kkoma pushed his glasses and strode forward.

At the door, the bus is ready.

"It's the final of UR today, right?"

EDG Club, Scout came very early, glanced at beryl, who was taking advantage of this opportunity to play the mobile game Abyss, and still asked Ah Shui.

"That's right, today UR played KT, Brother Guang is still the same Brother Guang, Niu, although buddy thought that he could reach the finals, I really didn't expect anyone to be 3-0."

Ah Shui smiled.

Brother is a little good to adjust, as an old light miscellaneous really didn't wait.

Scout smiled,

"Okay."

Turn on your computer and get ready to wait for the game to begin.

Today, he wants to take a good look at Xu Xiu's operation.

I've only been a Guangyi Middle School for a year, why are you Xu Xiu?

It doesn't make sense.

Today, I, Li Xiaocan, have to watch your game with a magnifying glass. Xu Xiu, you'd better not get sick.

In case you make a mistake......

Hum.

Scout sneered.

Then hurry up and get out of Xu Xiu!

It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that he asked the detective to observe Xu Xiu's performance overnight, but it's about the same.

And on the other side, the SKT base.

Little Peanut came very early today and asked if SKT's current coach could enter the training room, and got the news that only faker was still on holiday.

So he was allowed to go in.

Skillfully sat next to Lee Sang-hyuk, who was playing rank.

Lee Sang-hyuk turned his head to look at him, "Sit on my right." ”

Little Peanut was stunned and glanced at where he was sitting now.

The computer is not turned on, but the configuration is still the top.

The desktop is clean, there is nothing but peripherals, only a picture frame that is upside down,

But a note was posted on the wall in front of the computer.

【】。

Little Peanut was a little clear, touched the picture frame, and asked.

"Can I see it?"

The corners of Lee Sang-hyuk's mouth twitched, "If I don't give it to you, I'm sure I still have to watch it, forget it, let's see." ”

Anyway, he has been a teammate for a year, and he knows little peanut too well.

When Han Wanghu has curiosity, it really can't end casually.

"Nothing, anyway."

He looked breezy.

Little Peanut grinned and picked up the frame.

Inside is a photo,

There are only two people in the center of the photo.

One is Lee Sang-hyuk who looks a little helpless while wearing a birthday hat, but is actually smiling very happily, wearing an IP team uniform.

The other is Xu Ruoguang, who is smiling brightly and putting his arms around his neck and giving a funny thumbs up to the camera.

In the distance behind them, it was Little Peanut himself.

He was smirking evilly, grabbing a cake and preparing to sneak up on the two men.

Little Peanut's expression was a little abrupt, "At that time." ”

This photo was taken in May of S7's year, when they were helping faker celebrate his birthday.

At that time, Lee Sang-hyuk also said that the shooting was too ugly and he didn't want it.

As a result, it stayed.

Little Peanut's expression was a little weird, and he got up and sat on the other side of Lee Sang-hyuk, peeking at him from time to time.

Lee Sang-hyuk: ?

He was uncomfortable looking at it.

Are you looking at your horse?

Sick of it.

He had to speak, "What are you looking at?" ”

Little Peanut rubbed his chin and smacked his lips.

"I'm thinking about a question."

"What's the problem?"

"I used to hear them say that you like Brother Guang, it's an old man, I still don't believe it."

Little Peanut is a little embarrassed,

"Now I'm a little skeptical, aren't you an iron crush?"

Li Xianghe sneered, "Han Wanghu, I suggest you do it yourself, how many horses do you dare to say such things?" ”

"Hey, it's a teammate, so don't attack it personally."

"Hehe, brackets, ever."

"What about Xu Ruoguang? He was also a former person, why don't you forget it. ”

“……”

"Security!"

"I'm wrong, I'm wrong, don't drive me away!"

Little Peanut was dumbfounded.

He's been living in SKT for the past few days, and his luggage is here.

"Because I think it's a pity."

Lee Sang-hyuk sighed,

"I've wondered countless times if I had a better attitude when he joined SKT, would he still be at SKT?"

Little Peanut touched his head, he also had some understanding of what happened to S5.

"You were a bit radical at the time."

"Don't say it, don't say it."

Lee Sang-hyuk shook his head.

What's the use of regretting?

I didn't know the emperor's wise words: Can you have a better attitude!

At four o'clock in the afternoon, it was only an hour before the start of the game.

Major channels have begun to warm up.

"In another fateful duel, can the defeated former subordinates break through themselves?"

And at this time, the pre-game promotional video also began to be officially released.

Unlike previous promotional videos, this promotional video is re-made.

Because Xu Ruoguang was almost absent from the summer game, he was not at all in the promotional video during the playoffs.

So this time the LCK made up for it directly, and made up one specifically for him.

So much so that now Xu Ruoguang is nicknamed the LCK prince by many fans.

This level of attention, even faker has never enjoyed.

At the beginning of the picture, it is dark, and only the sound of the contestants can be heard.

The first to appear was Smeb.

"To be honest, I used to think I was the special one, I felt like I could beat everyone, I didn't have any opponents, not even Marin, the so-called Duke didn't pose any threat in my eyes, and Cuvee was just average."

He spoke flatly, very confidently.

"However, I was wrong."

He paused,

"The first time we met was Yasuo vs. Riven, and I thought I could win, and I don't think his so-called top five top singles are worthy of his name."

"And then he was super-god."

Speaking of which, Smeb smiled.

There was some helplessness in the laughter.

"Anyone can know how I felt, my mind was blank, I never thought I would lose so badly, I never thought that there would be such a person, and I never thought that I would be killed."

"Before I met him, I had a bright career, and I even thought that I could make a name for myself at the S5 Worlds and become a new generation of world No. 1 top-singlers."

"But after I met him, I started to feel like the championship was starting to get out of reach."

"If other top top-singlers in that era could score 90 points, I think I could score 95 points, but he gave me the feeling that it was ...... One hundred. ”

"I remember that feeling of powerlessness to this day."

After a short silence, Xu Ruoguang's clear voice sounded.

He didn't speak quickly, a little soothing.

"Smeb is a very good player and I actually admire him."

"You say Smeb said he felt a little powerless in the face of me? Actually, I don't think so, it's just that I'm just a little bit ahead, and he still has a chance to catch up with me. ”

"At that time, there were very few people in the LCK who dared to take fighters in front of us, but smeb has always done it, and I really like players like him. At least it's more fun to fight. ”

"If I have to choose an opponent, in my heart, probably only he can be called."

The picture shows SMEB looking up at the sky.

"In just a few months after Emporer's debut, he became the No. 1 top laner in the LCK, just like the sun, looking down on everyone, including me."

"He's really strong."

"But if you can beat him, it will be more fulfilling. I haven't done it yet, but I feel like I can do it someday. ”

"I can't be afraid, because I'm not as good as him, and no matter how afraid I am of him, I have to beat him if I want to get results."

"If you want to win, you can't be afraid."

"If you're afraid, you'll lose for the rest of your life."

The picture turned again, and it was Xu Ruoguang standing in a high-rise building, looking down at the traffic.

His gaze was flat and calm, without the slightest change.

"In my professional history, there have been countless top-to-lists who have said they want to beat me, and they always say that, but the end result tends to disappoint them."

"I'm sorry, too, but I'm sorry."

"Smeb, give up, you're not my opponent."

"If you want to talk about the odds, you can probably have fifty percent, I only have ninety-five percent."

"Please, the next genius will be ordered."

"There is no one in this world who will really make me feel pressure, no one who will make me interested."

"What I do is actually quite simple."

"Whoever is going to challenge me, then defeat him."

The picture gradually faded.

Only the last line remains.

[Five years after debuting, countless orders have emerged. 】

[Champion, only him.] 】

"Ahh

"The whole world is on the street, ask who is the father?"

"What a crazy Brother Guang, I like it so much!"

"That's it, brother, how many crowns are you?"

"Smeb, how old are you?"

Although there are no bells and whistles in this documentary, it is so plain that it is easier to move people.

SMEB's unwillingness is really visible to the naked eye.

Xu Ruoguang is pure and innocent with wicked people,

It belongs to the kind of big boss that is placed in the starting point e-sports, and the protagonist must be left until the finale to defeat the big boss.

The time came to five o'clock in the afternoon.

It's coming, it's getting started!

(End of chapter)
