There are still three days left until the final.

It was around this time that Riot released a short video.

【Fate】

This short film does not have the prefix of the World Finals, and it seems that it is simply a pre-game promotional video.

However, there are only two protagonists in this short film:

Lee Sang-hyuk and Heo Yuan.

Xu Yuan didn't know it at the first time.

I didn't know until after the training in the evening when I saw the news of the anti-bar.

With some curiosity, he opened the short film.

Accompanied by a black screen, it was a somewhat childish voice.

"Hi everyone, I'm a rookie midlaner from SKT K, Faker."

The picture gradually lit up, and the young Lee Sang-hyuk smiled and waved his hand.

The next moment, the passionate voice of the European and American commentaries sounded.

“OH！ Ambition made a huge mistake! ”

"He actually chose to evolve in front of his opponent!"

"Faker didn't hesitate to do it!"

"It's a single kill! Very beautiful! ”

In the picture, the corners of Lee Sang-hyuk's mouth, who had completed the single kill, turned up slightly and pushed his glasses.

This year, Lee Sang-hyuk was 17 years old.

This was his debut fight.

The next moment, the picture changes.

One hand picked up the EDG jersey with Deft's ID printed on the back and draped it over a teenager's body.

The next moment, the scene changed, and Xu Yuan, who was calm, waved his hand.

"Hi everyone, I'm EDG's AD, Savior."

Offstage, Smlz, who lost the game, looked at him silently.

"Unbelievable! EDG's rookie AD is still performing well! ”

"EDG is now on a winning streak! Are they really waiting for the right player? ”

"Savior, will it be that hope!"

The LPL commentator went crazy because of his performance and showed extraordinary expectations for him.

"This time S3, I won't lose."

A clear voice sounded, this is the interview that Lee Sang-hyuk gave before going to the S3 World Championship.

Fortunately for Yuelun, this time the documentary of the fist finally did not whip him again.

"Do you feel nervous going to the S7 Worlds?"

At this point, the picture is split in half.

In the somewhat gloomy interview room, on the left of the picture is Heo Yuan, who has a calm face, and on the right of the picture is Lee Sang-hyuk, who is also being interviewed and used to have sharp eyebrows and eyes that resemble a criminal of Sha Ren.

At first glance, the two men look like they're looking at each other.

"Nope."

The answers of the two men were strikingly consistent.

In the picture, one on the left and one on the right, half of their faces appear.

The two young people have the same pride and confidence in their eyes.

The arrogance and confidence that anyone can see is moving.

They spoke.

It's a different language, but it means the same thing.

"I'll win."

No hesitation.

There weren't too many mood swings, and they were calm as if they were telling a fact.

This kind of self-confidence is impossible for ordinary players to have.

The screen changes again, and it is the scene when two people win the championship at the same time.

One of them was wearing an SKT jersey and the other was an EDG jersey with big smiles.

The sky is full of flowers, crowning them.

And at a certain moment, Lee Sang-hyuk's team uniform suddenly changed to EDG.

He stood with Xu Yuan, looked at each other and raised the trophy together.

"S8 is the last champion! It's out! ”

"Tonight's glory belongs to EDG's double C!"

"Maybe the best players in history are still up for grabs, but that definitely doesn't include double C!"

"EDG's double C is the strongest double C!"

"Everyone, please watch!"

"The era of EDG's rule has come!"

However, the next moment of the camera is the scene of Lee Sang-hyuk broadcasting live at the base alone.

"Where's Savior?"

It seems to be a barrage question, which he noticed.

Lee Sang-hyuk subconsciously glanced back. His face was a little stunned.

He ...... I guess I'll be back. ”

"Do you miss your former teammates?"

"Yes, I miss Savior."

year.

Two years.

Three years.

Four years.

The picture gradually darkened, and the next moment, a line of words appeared on the screen.

[In 2023, Savior will make a comeback. 】

It's still that face, a teenager who was once a little immature, but now he has become a quiet young man.

At the same moment, the picture began to change wildly!

"Oh! T1 turned around after Lee Sang-hyuk returned after dealing with his hand injury! ”

In the picture, the returning Lee Sang-hyuk tilted his head slightly and gave his signature thumbs up to the camera.

"Unbelievable! After the return of Savior, EDG is undefeated! ”

In the picture, Xu Yuan blinked at the camera, and some naughty ones also gave a thumbs up.

“T1！ Defeated KT! Now they have already secured their place in the World Championships! ”

“EDG！ Defeated the invincible JDG! Having advanced to the upper bracket, they already have a place in the Worlds! ”

At the same time, the voices of the passionate commentary are intertwined.

The picture is again split in half.

On the left, Xu Yuan is wearing LPL's conquest, with his hands in his pockets, and he is looking at his teammates on the right.

However, because of the problem of segmentation of the picture.

To his right is Lee Sang-hyuk, who is looking to the left, wearing an LCK to conquer!

The two of them are obviously in completely different venues. But it was as if they were looking at each other at this moment.

It can only be said that Riot does like this tone.

It's too spicy!

Along with the BGM of passion that gradually sounded, on both sides of the stage appeared on both sides of the stage were S7's Lee Sang-hyuk and Heo Yuan.

They walked forward at the same time.

At the same time, their figures are constantly changing.

The appearance is becoming more and more mature, the team uniform on the body is constantly changing, and the figure is getting taller and taller.

When this road comes to an end, it is exactly what the two people of the S13 World Championship look like.

And they were, as always.

One wears an EDG jersey and the other wears an SKT jersey renamed T1.

At some point, the dividing line in the center of the frame has disappeared.

Lee Sang-hyuk turned his head to look at Xu Yuan beside him and grinned.

"Long time no see."

Xu Yuan smiled a little helplessly, but also nodded.

"Ah, long time no see."

Lee Sang-hyuk smiled and stretched out his fist.

The next moment, Xu Yuan's fist collided with his fist without hesitation.

Picture. It ends here.

However, after a few seconds, the screen lights up again.

This time, it was the two of them who hooked shoulders after filming the promotional video, and Lee Sang-hyuk planned to go out to take Heo Yuan to eat barbecue.

You can still faintly hear the sound of two people talking.

"What do you want to eat? This is my brother's home field, brother, I invite you to eat good food. ”

"There is a delicious bazaar in South Korea, you can eat some barbecue."

"It's really no problem, then barbecue?"

“go。”

As the two laughed and drifted apart, the picture ended completely at this moment.

[2023, called Fate]

Short film, end.

Xu Yuan's face was a little stiff.

"Byd is embarrassing, isn't it?"

Although the filming was okay, Xu Yuan was really embarrassed as the protagonist of this short film.

And......

Why did I discuss with Lee Sang-hyuk that I would go to eat barbecue after filming, and you would use it as material?

Ho ho ho, that's what I photographed, exaggerated.

Couldn't BYD Riot respect the privacy of its players?

Xu Yuan couldn't wait to put on a watermelon head, and came to such a demonic whisper:

Family, who knows!

He took out his mobile phone and sent a message directly to Lee Sang-hyuk.

Xu Yuan: Have you watched the short film that Fist just posted?

Lee Sang-hyuk: Look.

Lee Sang-hyuk: It's good, I like it very much.

Xu Yuan: ?

Xu Yuan: You can't really be a gay man, I'm a little scared.

Lee Sang-hyuk: ?

Lee Sang-hyuk: What's going on in your head? Watch less fart literature!

Lee Sang-hyuk: Isn't this a good buddy relationship? Aren't we?

Xu Yuan: Hehe, I can't say.

Lee Sang-hyuk: Aminos! West eight k color give, Falk squid!

Xu Yuan: Man, what can I say?

After disgusting Lee Sang-hyuk fiercely, Xu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's comfortable!"

The short break is over, and the next ......

It's still a lot of training.

"Huh."

In the T1 lounge, Lee Sang-hyuk put down his phone and smiled.

"Keep up the good work, kids, EDG seems to be very relaxed, they may have some killer feature."

"No matter what, we can't afford to lose."

"Come on!"

He gave an exciting speech.

T1 doesn't have any carelessness.

Even though EDG's journey to the finals was a bit tough.

Last year's S12, DRX's knife stabbed T1 hard enough!

Before the game, I felt stable, and T1 felt so myself.

The result?

On the opposite side, the middle and upper directly transforms into Shi Yi Zhong and Shi Yi Shang.

In just this BO5, they are the undoubted world No. 1 in the middle.

But it's just this one, so it's called Shi Yi Zhong and Shi Yi Shang.

Faced with DRX's sudden explosion, T1 was knocked unconscious.

In the end, he lost that championship.

The same thing, T1 will never allow it to happen a second time!

They may not be able to influence whether their opponent will burst or not, but they can make as few mistakes as possible and not give their opponent a chance.

If you can't stop the other person from getting stronger, make yourself stronger!

That's what T1 thinks now.

The championship this time is too important for them [except for Lee Sang-hyuk].

Although Lee Sang-hyuk doesn't really need this championship, he also hopes to take his current teammates to win against Heo Yuan.

Time passes little by little.

Ah Le was trained to collapse and rebuild, Fofo was beaten numb and numb, and in the end he could only endure and continue.

Xu Yuan did not make any persuasion.

At this point, his teammates don't need him to say more.

All of them were in high alignment, except for the glittering summoner's trophy.

Three days!

Two days!

One day!

Xu Yuan got on the bus arranged by Fist and arrived at the scene.

There are still four hours left before the start of the game.

The audience was already crowded.

At the home of South Korea, it is another top popular team like T1.

Plus...... Once they beat EDG, it's a pretty one-three out!

All of this makes it impossible for today's audience to be less.

In the same way, there were also a lot of LPL audiences who came to the scene.

They are also cheering for EDG, the last hope!

Xu Yuan got off the bus and looked at the entrance of the player's passage.

There, Lee Sang-hyuk put his hands in his pockets.

"Hmph."

Xu Yuan smiled. (End of chapter)
