On August 23, 2027, the final battle of the Summer Bubble Tournament will begin.

The short-haired girl, who is the receptionist in the background, fidgets, looks out the door from time to time, hoping that tonight's job will give her a glimpse of God A.

God A is currently the hottest player in the LPL, and has dominated the list all year round with his talent of faults, and has been evaluated by foreign media as "the most talented player in history".

If it weren't for his four team members, he would have gone to the World Championship a long time ago, right?

She was thinking when there was a commotion outside the door.

Ahhhh

Alike, that is, what everyone calls God A.

He has a mixed-race appearance, his backpack hangs at will, his height is very superior in the crowd, and he always has a contemptuous posture of contempt for the overall situation, and he is handsome as soon as he appears.

The short-haired girl squeezed forward very hard, but she didn't see her face, so she was stopped by the accompanying staff, "I'm sorry, God A needs to rest, everyone stops." ”

She was a little deflated, but she thought that it was normal not to see it, this is the A god who is popular in the entire LPL, and it is already very good to be able to see a little corner and corner!

She regrouped and cleaned up the messy reception area, ignoring the white sneakers that appeared in her field of vision, and accidentally knocked over the support she had erected.

The owner of the sneaker also has a superior height, but that superiority is not the same as God A.

His thin frame made him look unaggressive, and his team uniform was neatly worn, without a single wrinkle, and clean as new.

When you get closer, you can smell the faint scent of soap, and it is as quiet as a clear stream in a noisy environment like e-sports.

He was writing something intently, and only when he kicked something did he realize that there was someone at his feet, "Excuse me, did I kick you?" ”

When the face was lifted from the notebook, the short-haired girl was completely stunned.

She had never seen a player with such a clean and restrained temperament.

Fair skin and neat hair.

Like a transparent glass bottle on a shop window, no matter what it contains, it will reveal the most authentic color.

He put down the pen in his hand and reached out to pull her up from the ground.

On his jersey was written the inconspicuous -

KUG_river。

Lin Jiang.

The short-haired girl was stunned for a long time, and she suddenly reacted that the other party was also a professional player, and her eyes lit up: "Are you also a professional player?" Will you also play games? ”

"Me?" The owner of the white shoes smiled.

He put away his notebook and lowered the brim of his hat, "I'm not qualified to play." ”

The short-haired girl was stunned for a moment, and the contestant in front of her strode away and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

It took her a long time to come to her senses: "Brother Andy, was that player a teammate of God A just now?" How come I have never seen him? ”

"You don't even know about him?"

Andy, who was hanging a work card, was shocked, "He is the midlaner who won the domestic and foreign championships for two whole years - river." ”

"In those two years, when his name was mentioned, LOL had to tremble in and outside the divisions, and even LCK netizens who sprayed all the divisions had to admit his status."

Although the short-haired girl has been in the e-sports circle for a relatively short time, she also knows that netizens in the LCK region are not even convinced by Alike, how powerful are the players who can convince the LCK......

"Then why is he like this now?"

"It's also embarrassing to say, when river dominated the arena, God A was also a dark horse, and then I don't know how KUG actually signed God A."

"At the beginning, he was still the starting team of the river, but later because of a loss, God A counterattacked strongly, and the team began to praise God A and step on the river, and slowly he was a substitute for more than three years......"

"Three years of substitution?"

You must know that the substitution of esports and the substitution of other events are completely different things, this game requires a strong degree of cooperation, and there are very few unexpected situations, and the substitute has almost no chance to play.

Three years as a substitute means that you have not played for three years.

Even if he used to be the lord of the alliance and the god of the canyon, he should almost be abolished now, right?

The short-haired girl covered her heart.

I don't know why it's a little sad, it reminds her of those clean and white hands, and the brim of his hat that is lowered......

What he wants to cover up is actually his self-esteem.

*

The competition was held in a warm atmosphere.

At the beginning, KUG's luck was very good, and God A was like a hanging, and he won two games in a row, and won the match point game strongly.

Just when everyone thought that KUG had won, God A's state took a sharp turn for the worse, and he followed his teammates to bury two games in succession, and was pulled into the final tiebreaker of the 5th game.

The online wind comments are instantaneous, and the abuse is repeated.

The higher-ups in the discussion room were anxious.

"Do you know what it means to lose the next game? It means that for the first time since the establishment of the KUG team, they can't go to the World Championship, and the team's traffic and wind reviews will drop explosively, and no one can afford this responsibility! ”

"There is also Alike, the team finally built him into a star player worth hundreds of millions, and he lost the next game and fell directly to the altar, and the team's god-making plan was all in vain! I don't know if all of us are going to fuck off! ”

The air pressure in the discussion room was low, and the final fate of the boss hung over each of their heads like a guillotine.

Someone in the corner weakly proposed: "Why don't you ...... Let the substitutes come on, right? ”

"If he wins, we make smart decisions, and the pressure of public opinion is also on him if we lose, as long as Akile doesn't fall, we will operate well next year, and word of mouth and reviews will slowly come back......"

This can really minimize the loss, and everyone acquiesced to the result, and finally came to the break room to announce it.

Alike pursed the corners of his mouth, "I can't win, can he win?" ”

The manager stepped forward to call Alike out and secretly explained the situation to him, and Alike, who was strongly opposed at first, suddenly calmed down.

Indeed, let Lin Jiangshang solve a lot of public opinion pressure for himself, but will Lin Jiang agree?

His five-year contract has finally come to an end, and with his results that year, he can mix with any team, and if he goes up and loses this game, public opinion will ruin his entire career.

Alike doesn't believe that there will be people in this world who are not for themselves.

He pursed the corners of his lips and saw the thin figure in the corner through the hazy glass window of the air-conditioned room.

After listening to the coach's arrangement, he nodded without any objections, and then got up to check his equipment.

Alike pupil constriction.

After so many years, he thought that he had completely won the river, but this moment made his face hurt hotly.

He clenched his fists, and then had to let go.

"I agree to let him go."

The fifth game of the KUG Bubble Tournament is underway, also known as the worst match in history.

The two sides battled until 65 minutes, but still could not decide the victory.

On the live broadcast screen, River's forehead was sweating, and he led the team to defend it, and when the three highlands were all pulled out, he also led the team to the late stage.

On the opposite side, all three highlands have been pulled out, the economy on both sides has overflowed, ten people are all six gods in hand, and the lineup is also comparable.

Seeing that River, who had not played for three years, still showed such a high level of professionalism, the short-haired girl in the background couldn't hide her excitement.

She couldn't imagine what kind of myth River had achieved back then, so that she could still show such dominance without playing a game for three years.

That's a bone that even Alike can't gnaw......

Some old fans on the barrage began to boil -

[I didn't expect to see River's games in my lifetime.] ]

[It's been three years!] My mom never thought I'd see him in such a scene. ]

[River is 25 years old, right?] Not at all inferior to young players. ]

[Who remembers the two years he took charge of the Alliance?] ]

[I'm going to cry to death, who knows?] ]

When River became a substitute, there were fans who charged for him, but after a long time, no matter how much glory he had, he would disappear with the weather.

While they sighed, on the other side was the cynicism of new fans:

[Can't even win the game?] If only God A had won. ]

[What are you dragging?] Who is making the decisions? Didn't you just take the big dragon and make a wave? ]

[Doesn't the middle lane have the ability to finish the game?] ]

[Old cold hand?] ]

[Watching him play is like playing cotton, it's not exciting.] ]

[KUG in chronic death.] ]

[It's north, the great advantage has been dragged to the present......]

[What the hell is the substitute that came up.] ]

Lin Jiang was sweating on the field, and he didn't even dare to have time to wipe his sweat.

So far, the game has been like walking on the tip of a knife, and the slightest deviation is a catastrophe.

The opponent is stronger than he imagined, and he is full of resilience, and his style of play is unique to KUG, which is also the reason why Alike has been overturned in two games in a row.

Lin Jiang's bold selection of late-stage heroes is just to fight for life and death with the other party.

But the hand that hasn't played in three years has long been rusty, and despite his best restraint, there are still subtleties that the other party can see through.

The eyes of the jungler on the opposite side were like snakes perceiving everything, and he instantly glimpsed his flaws, and EQ flashed decisively to open the group.

Lin Jiang was seconded, the situation changed rapidly, and the 75-minute game was suddenly bulldozed by a wave.

The screen fell into black and white, Lin Jiang closed his eyes deeply, and the monstrous darkness engulfed him like a fierce beast in an instant.

In that short second, it was not only this game that took away.

And his entire career.

Public opinion flooded the screen.

Let two chase three, KUG lost the qualification for the World Championship for the first time since the establishment of the team, and God A was unable to enter the World Championship for the first time......

I thought that the space battleship could torture and kill all regions, but before the door was out, it fell at the door of my own house, which is an unacceptable shame for all fans!

They picked up the keyboard and used the most vicious language and the most harsh voice in an attempt to criticize Lin Jiang to death-

[Do you like to send it so much??? ]

[I watched it for more than an hour, and you sent it out in a second! ] ]

[Who is this mid-laner?] Can you get him out of the LPL......]

[I can't accept this result!] God A has never missed a World Championship! He didn't even play, and he was lost! ]

[Is this substitute taking revenge on God A?] ]

[Why let a substitute duel!] Victory! Bureau! ]

Fans at the scene were emotional, alarming the security guards.

Lin Jiang, who lost the game, got up to pack up his equipment and left the field.

Suddenly, a black shadow smashed towards his head, accompanied by a voice: "Get out of the LPL for me!" ”

The white light flashed overhead, and the overhead lights converged overhead.

Lin Jiang's body slowly fell to the ground, accompanied by a sharp tinnitus in his ears, and then he couldn't hear anything......
