When the words fell, everyone was stunned.

"I'll go on the second round, okay?"

Xu Cheng asked again.

“……！”

Abu also looked at him, silent for a long time, no longer hesitated, and made a final decision: "Okay, the second round, on the orange!" ”

"Everybody prepare, prepare... Let's get nuclear. ”

Since the EDG World Championship is stable and sick, it is useless to go down the incense burner.

It's all about to be eliminated.

That...

Let's play on the core.

Maybe... Will there be a miracle?

……

Xu Cheng is actually not as confident as he appears.

But in all fairness, the treatment given to him by EDG, as well as the kindness of the factory director to him, made him unable to enjoy the safe haven of the "fig leaf of the outside world" with peace of mind.

That night, in what may be the worst and most terrifying storm of public opinion in the history of the LPL.

EDG officially announced the starting list for the second round of the group stage of the 2017 World Finals.

Among them, the other four positions are okay, and they are all EDG members that everyone is familiar with recently.

The top single position, but from Mouse, to Murder.

The Buddha is on the field!!

This news spread all over the network and even the world almost the moment EDG's starting list was announced.

Countless EDG fans who have missed Xu Cheng's high-spirited spirit at the intercontinental tournament in the past few days, as well as LPL audiences, have cried!

[Buddha, you are finally here! 】

[It seems that EDG has finally figured it out, and it should be the Buddha! ] 】

[Woo woo, crying, Buddha, save EDG, save LPL, we can only rely on you...]

【Brother Orange!! Heroes are here!! 】

[It's long overdue, will the Buddha be like this in the morning? ] Buddha, please blow up those foreign orders, they have already ridden on our heads and Woo woo...]

[Why is this picture so familiar... Last year, the fat dad was also lifted up by EDG when he was dying, and as a result, he forcibly renewed his life once, and then should he be eliminated or eliminated... Is it really useful for the Buddha to play? The loss in the past few days is purely due to the illness of all EDG members, and the old problem of soft-footed shrimp in the international competition has been committed again. 】

[It's better than not, I recognize the strength of the Buddha! ] 】

[To be honest... This version is nuclear, isn't it looking for death by yourself? Why didn't EDG play the core before? Now that you are going to the Buddha, you really take the Buddha as the backpot? 】

【……！ 】

The list was announced, and #佛爷上了#的热搜词, it once jumped to the third place in the hot search, with a popularity of 300W+!

This has never happened when Xu Cheng played the highest game before!

It can be seen that at this moment, fans across the country and even in Asia are eager for Xu Cheng and how high their expectations are for Xu Cheng.

Everyone expects to see him play, and that's no joke!

Of course, the attention of the S race is too high.

Especially this year's S7, it is said that it is several times more than the continental competition, and it is less.

After all, many viewers usually don't pay attention to any games at all, and only when the S competition starts every year, will they be enthusiastic and lively.

More people who didn't know Xu Cheng before, or who weren't familiar with Xu Cheng, were very puzzled.

Who is this man?

And for countless insiders, and even the official, the moment they got the news, they were completely anxious!

How can Murder play?

How can Xu Cheng play the second round?

The reason why the fig leaf is called a fig leaf is because it can cover everyone's last bit of shame.

But when the fig leaf is ripped off... Then all the shame was revealed.

All excuses and rhetoric will also pale in comparison.

"What the hell does EDG think? Rush to the doctor, right? What happened to the previous teams that reversed the version, didn't you see it? ”

"I don't know... But Xu Cheng is not a good thing for us LPL, if we lose, EDG, as the No. 1 seed, will be out of the top 16, and LPL's reputation will be ruined. ”

"I originally thought EDG could be a little more sensible, but now I'm in a complete hurry..."

"Alas, even if you win the quarterfinals, this local competition, with such high attention and expectations, you can't even win a game... What are you doing here? ”

"Sit back and wait for the official intervention, I feel like the official doesn't want Murder to play..."

Those who don't play are the strongest.

On the field, it is the entire LPL that is disgraced.

In fact, the official did not interfere with the personnel adjustment of EDG, not that they complied with the regulations, but this kind of thing, and it was difficult for the official to forcibly change it.

The most they do is persuasion.

When EDG insists on doing so, no one can change their decision.

In this way, in the midst of the noise and shouting, public opinion was all over the sky, and words and swords were already attacking Xu Cheng before he appeared on the stage.

October 12th.

After a short three-day offseason, the attention has been completely exploded, and the second round of the S7 group stage, which leads the world, has officially begun.

On this day, Xu Cheng took the keyboard and mouse gifts specially given to him by friends such as Rita Yushuang Xiaoyu, and stepped on the bus to Wuhan Sports Center with everyone's blessings and expectations.

……

Along the way, in fact, Xu Cheng was no longer unfamiliar with these shocking scenes.

But when he walked into the Wuhan Sports Center, he was still touched by the scene in front of him-

That's almost the entire stadium, chanting EDG over and over again!

The classic black team flag is all over the Wuhan Sports Center.

The breeze is blowing, and the flag is hunting.

A few days ago, the audience fans who were once desperate and disappointed in breaking the defense, but today, after the start of the second round of the group stage of EDG, they still chose to go to the scene and bring them the greatest support!

Even if, not long ago, they were eager to spray EDG to disband on the spot, so angry that they let the few people on the field slash alive.

But...

The audience is always lovely.

They are angry that you lost too badly before, but they are always "cheap" to your new game, raising new expectations -

As long as EDG is not really eliminated, they are the leading big brother in the Chinese division after all!!

"EDG, come on!!"

"EDG, win!!"

"Buddha, please, don't let us be eliminated, we really waited for many years to come to this home opportunity!"

"It's a dream to round the factory, being beaten like this in Wuhan, he really needs you so much......"

"Woo woo, Buddha, you're going to win, I'll give you a baby!"

"Come on, Buddha! Buddha will win!! ”

"Buddha!! Look here!! ”

Suddenly, another young lady with short hair and sassy hair suddenly held up the banner in her hand, and on the other side of the venue, another young lady also raised it.

I saw this huge banner running through the entire scene, exposed to the eyes of audiences all over the world.

Because the layout is too long, the words are very scattered, but they are moving-

"Murder Contestant's S debut, come on! EDG must win the group stage! Win or lose, we'll always be waiting for you to get on the road to Carry's version! You will always be the best top order for EDG! ”

"Xu Cheng, I want to carry it today! We always have your back! ”

"You can always trust Murder!"

Whoa!

There was a burst of applause and screams.

"Hoo ......"

Looking at this banner, which was obviously made by EDG fans, Xu Cheng let out a long breath, and some kind of blood in his body seemed to be boiling in an instant.

The other people around EDG also twitched uncontrollably at the corners of their mouths at the moment, which was a natural physiological reaction to being too excited.

Didn't say anything more, went all the way to the backstage.

Until the noise in front of him became smaller, the factory director, who had been silent since entering the market, suddenly smiled:

"If you lose today... I retired. ”

"Huh?"

Everyone was stunned.

Xu Cheng opened his mouth and just wanted to speak.

"I'm not impulsive, I'm not joking, and now I'm... Very calm. ”

The factory director's smile was unprecedentedly relieved: "Perhaps... I shouldn't have been lying here all the time, plain for years, consuming everyone's expectations, and letting everyone who supports LPL... Growing disappointment. ”

"Maybe I'm really old, aren't I?"

Xu Cheng didn't speak again, just lowered his head and exhaled heavily.

EDG lost, he was uncomfortable and urgent, EDG 0/3, what he thought of was that the king would treat me as a countryman, and I would repay him by a countryman.

But when the factory director said that he was going to retire, for a moment, Xu Cheng really panicked.

Perhaps it is the successive blows of life in the past few days that have made this veteran, who has been struggling for many years, finally relieved.

Although this relief carries a deep sense of regret and nostalgia.

But...

He's not going to let that happen.

So, Xu Cheng raised his head and said affirmatively: "You want to retire... It may be early. ”

"Because we... Will win. ”

The factory director was stunned, and then smiled:

“…… I hope so. ”

……

At the same time, in the live broadcast rooms of various major regions around the world, the popularity began to skyrocket at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually reached a terrifying peak that broke through history!

Today is a big day for countless Chinese audiences to decide life and death.

EDG is 0/3 in the first round of the group stage, and there is only a theoretical possibility of qualifying.

That's it, it's still the second round without losing a game, and you need to look at the faces of other teams in the same group, plus a little luck.

Because according to the 7-year history of the S competition, as long as the group stage is 0/3, there has never been a team in history that has truly created a miracle and successfully counterattacked and advanced.

In other words, for EDG now, promotion is uncertain, but if they lose one game, they will be eliminated completely.

For the next EDG, every game is a life and death situation!

No one misses this moment of witnessing history... For better or for worse.

In this case, time passes.

When the time came to three o'clock in the afternoon.

The guide shot is given to the commentary seat.

Doll Miller and Rita appeared in the commentary booth in formal attire.

Although they were dressed very energetically, the faces and mental states of the three of them were obviously tense.

A simple and strong spirit made an opening statement.

When she saw the contestants enter, the doll regained her spirits: "We saw... Buddha is at the forefront, today... EDG chose the Buddha. ”

"Buddha..."

Miller also let out a sigh and sighed: "It's been a long time. ”

"Yes, since the appearance of the incense burner version, a road player with strong personal ability like Buddha has had a very uncomfortable time."

Rita said a little nervously: "But today EDG chose to go to the Buddha, then it should be a core..."

“…… Don't regret it. ”

Hearing this, everyone was a little silent.

The incense burner version is marked with a nucleus...

How to put it, it's really a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

"No regrets, that's right, the game has been played so far, for EDG, it doesn't matter if the version is not versioned, don't leave regrets on this stage, it's the most important thing..."

"Of course... In any case, there is no doubt about the personal ability of the Buddha. ”

The doll changed his words and started blowing directly: "The only thing I need to worry about now is that the Buddha hasn't played for a long time, and I don't know if I can adapt to this kind of event with the highest intensity in the world..."

"Before that, Buddha's international experience was actually limited to the two BO1 races in the continental competition."

“…… This is indeed a problem. ”

Xu Cheng's personal ability and talent are undoubted, but he hasn't played for so long, and now he plays the S game as soon as he plays, or in this situation where the internal and external pressure is indescribable...

If you are an ordinary newcomer, it is estimated that you have long been crushed by this pressure and have a psychological breakdown.

Xu Cheng is notoriously big heart.

But despite this, it is still one of the biggest fears for everyone.

"So... Believe in EDG, believe in the Buddha, everything that should be said in the past few days... It can only be said that we really can't lose again, not once, otherwise... I can only regret leaving! ”

At this time, the director came with a notice, and Miller took a deep breath, not even wanting to say more words of cheering, because... He was really scared by EDG.

The camera switches to the BP interface.

In this match, EDG is on the blue side, and their opponent C9 is on the red side.

As the light of North America, C9 will explode almost every year, and its strength is a real first-line team in the world.

And because the team's top laner Damu has a strong personal strength and is good at blue-collar laners, they did not target Xu Cheng when they were banned in the first round.

Knock out Lulu, Kasumi, and the Spear of Vengeance.

EDG, on the other hand, pressed out the wind girl, the policewoman, and the blind man.

"It's a very conventional ban person, C9 is very confident in the top order, and he didn't choose to target the Buddha, so the selection of the Buddha should be much more comfortable."

"It's a big tree after all... SKT's generation is on the list, and the first in North America in recent years does have the confidence to do so. ”

Miller glanced at it: "EDG on the Buddha, it should be the core of the upper road, it depends on which Carry type EDG wants to choose..."

Which Carry will EDG choose to place the order, which is something that many people pay attention to.

So much so that in the BP after that, everyone didn't care too much about those candidates.

It wasn't until the last two selections on the blue side that EDG finally determined the top laner hero for the game.

A hero whose hundreds of millions of viewers around the world can't help but go crazy in an instant as soon as they see it!

"The day the broken sword is reforged, when the knight returns!"

The Blade of Indulgence - Riven!

？？？？？

"Rivien... Directly locked in seconds! But this... How can it be... Are you sure it wasn't a mistake? ”

Miller opened his mouth wide, and everyone froze.

Rivien, what kind of hero is this?

During the S3 period, it can still be seen in the professional arena, and in the years since, a hero who has basically faded out of the professional arena!

Of course, this is also a Carry order, and it is the kind of special Carry.

But for various reasons such as the version... No one can play at all.

Now Xu Cheng directly locked Ruiwen in the life and death game of EDG.

Not to mention the audience and commentary, even their opponent, C9, is stupid at the moment!

"What's the situation? Is it the whole job on the other side? This version plays Ruiwen on the list? ”

OMG, the women's clothing boss on the lower road, shook his head several times.

“…… Can I use Jace then? ”

The top laner Damu was very excited, and asked the coaching staff very humbly.

The incense burner version, all the orders are not good, although he is a team type list, he is very good as a dog, he can be good before and occasionally cool down, and now he has been a dog.

Now playing Ruiwen on the other side, it's a pity that he doesn't choose a Jace Blaster.

Of course, even if you can play Jace, the team will definitely take the lower road as the core, and the upper road Jace is estimated to not be able to eat any resources, and he will take the initiative to give it to the bottom road daddy.

But that's okay... Isn't it comfortable to be comfortable on the line?

Oki thought humbly, and the coach nodded.

And seeing that C9 locked Jace in seconds after Xu Cheng won Ruiwen, the outside world was both surprised and felt reasonable.

"I thought of it, Da Mu is not afraid to fight against you, in the case of locking Ruiwen first, C9 will most likely play a hero who restrains Ruiwen..."

"But the difference is that EDG wants the whole team to play with the top laner as the core, while C9 will not have Jace as the core."

"I believe C9 should know this, that's why I chose it this way, this version, Jace plays Ruiwen, with the jungler, and you can't play it if you catch the opposite side once..."

Miller nodded.

In fact, the two heroes, Ruiwen and Jace, have always been in the position of the food chain rotation, and the strength of the version determines who is powerful.

Riven can also overpower Jace, and Jace can overpower Riven.

Unfortunately, in this version, Riven will definitely not be able to beat Jace.

"But since EDG has chosen, I think we should believe in the Buddha... I believe he can do miracles..."

The final selection of C9 is over, and the lineups of both sides are settled, and the game screen is loaded.

Off the field, there was already an uncontrollable deafening sound of EDG cheering.

In this situation, several commentators also took a deep breath.

This may be the last battle of EDG's S competition this year, so Miller finally said with a little emotion:

“EDG… Really come on... In this battle, there are no regrets! I also hope that Buddha will be the hero who saves EDG and LPL! ”

"Alright, the game has begun, let's enter together, Summoner's Rift!"
