LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

While Su Mo was greeting everyone from T1, Scuot and Faker also started chatting and exchanged a few words.

Immediately afterwards, the EDG team completed the check-in procedures, went upstairs together, and checked into their respective rooms.

After packing his luggage, Su Mo went to the next room, which had several computers for daily training.

Abu greeted, "You can start training now. I'll go out and get you some food."

Meiko asked, "Can we eat seafood?"

Abu shook his head and said, "No, when you win the championship, I will treat you to a feast. Eat as much as you want."

Meiko had no choice but to bear it for now.

As soon as Abu left, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, followed by a clear voice:

"Brother Mozi!"

Su Mo looked back and found Rita and Luo Xin standing at the door.

"Come in." Su Mo called.

So the two of them walked in, and Rita asked:

"Brother Mozi, can you please do me a favor?"

Su Mo nodded: "Go ahead."

"It's just... the official gave us a task, wanting us to interview you and Faker and make a short film."

Luo Xin added: “But we don’t feel very familiar with Faker… and we don’t have his contact information.”

Su Mo muttered after hearing this: "Huh? You don't have his contact information? I thought you had the contact information of all the famous players."

Luo Xin explained: "I asked him for it, but he didn't give it to me. Faker is just a cool boy."

Su Mo smiled: "It's true that they are a little arrogant, but the point is that I don't have that either... But I know which floor they live on, I can go up and look for them."

Su Mo just overheard the conversation of the T1 people downstairs and knew that they lived on the sixth floor.

"Really? That's great." Luo Xin was very happy.

Su Mo stood up and walked towards the door, followed by Rita and Luo Xin.

Su Mo suddenly asked: "You guys shouldn't ask some weird questions, right?"

Rita shook her head: "Of course not, these are all serious questions."

Su Mo had a bad feeling: "If you say that, then I feel something is not right."

The three of them came to the elevator entrance and waited for the elevator.

Soon, the elevator came up and the door opened.

It turned out that there were quite a few people standing inside.

"Brother Mozi! Oh! Brother Mozi!" someone inside shouted loudly.

Su Mo looked over and found that it was still an acquaintance. No, they were all acquaintances, G2!

The person who was shouting just now was none other than Perkz.

Perkz looked excited, even fanatical, like a hunter seeing his prey.

"Perkz, Caps and Jankos..." Su Mo greeted them one by one.

Perkz quickly pointed to a young man who looked honest and simple and said:
"Wunder! He is Wunder, don't you remember him? After being abused by you last time, he went back and was depressed for three months. Hahahaha, so pitiful."

Wunder rolled his eyes at Perkz, as if he was disgusted with Perkz's big mouth.

Perkz didn't care about that and continued, "And Caps, the last time he lost to you, he went back and cried for a long time, woooo..."

Perkz made a crying expression.

Caps seemed to be used to it, so he didn't react and said, "You guys want to go up? Come in."

Everyone from G2 stepped inside and Su Mo walked in, followed closely by Rita and Luo Xin.

Perkz continued: "Which floor are you going to?"

Su Mo replied: "Sixth floor."

"Hmm? We are also on the sixth floor. Do you live on the sixth floor?"

"No, I have something to do on the sixth floor and I need to find someone."

Caps interrupted, "Brother Mozi, you guys are not going to win the MSI championship again this time, are you?"

Su Mo smiled: "If we don't win the championship, what are we doing here? Traveling?"

Caps smiled and said, “Oh, in that case, we can only give it our all.”

Su Mo responded: "Come over here."

Soon, the elevator stopped at the sixth floor, and Su Mo took Rita and Luo Xin downstairs.

Perkz called out, “Brother Mozi, can we take a photo together? I want to take a photo with you. I’m your loyal fan, your number one loyal fan.”

Su Mo teased, "I didn't realize that. You didn't say that just to take a photo with me."

Perkz quickly said: "Really, at least in our region, you can't find a fan as loyal as me."

Caps exposed him on the spot: "Last time you said you were a loyal fan of Faker."

Perkz argued: "Can I only be a fan of one person? I don't think so. Besides, Faker is the mid laner and Mozi is the top laner."

So Su Mo took a photo with Perkz first, then took photos with the others separately, and finally took a photo together, and then he sent these G2 guys away.

After everyone from G2 left, Rita muttered, "Perkz always seems to be very energetic and has a sense of comedy."

Su Mo nodded: "Indeed, and the ability is there, but it's a pity that I can't get any results, and my teammates are not very good."

Su Mo began to observe. There were quite a lot of rooms on this floor, so it would not be easy to find Faker.

However, Su Mo’s idea was that the T1 team had just checked in and they would definitely not all stay in the room.

Sure enough, Su Mo suddenly saw a familiar figure.

The door of a nearby room opened and a plump boy walked out.

Su Mo walked forward and greeted, "Contestant Clid."

Clid heard the noise and quickly turned around and called out, "Brother Mozi."

The nickname Su Mo is now known to everyone.

Moreover, Clid has played in LPL before, and his Chinese pronunciation is more standard than other players.

Rita walked up to negotiate: "Hello Clid players, we are LPL hosts and would like to interview Faker. Can you tell us where he is?"

Clid nodded: "No problem, it's just in front, follow me."

So, under the guidance of Clid, the three of them walked to the door of Faker's room.

Clid knocked on the door and called out, "Sang Hyuk."

Soon, the door opened and Faker appeared in front of everyone.

"Contestant Mo?" He noticed Su Mo at first sight.

Su Mo greeted, "Player Faker, are you free now? They want to interview you, the host of LPL."

Faker took out his phone and looked at it, then replied, "I'm free now."

Rita added: "Actually, we're interviewing the two of you and making a short film."

"No problem." Faker nodded.

Clid greeted, "I'll be leaving first then."

Rita expressed her gratitude: "Okay, thank you, Clid." Clid smiled and left.

"Come with me." Faker led the three to the next room. The door of the room was open and there were several computers inside. It was probably where T1 trained.

There was only one person in the room at this time, Teddy, T1's current starting ADC!

"Brother Xianghe...Brother Mozi?" Teddy noticed the group of four people, and they seemed a little surprised when they saw Su Mo.

Su Mo called out, "Contestant Teddy."

Faker said: "They want to interview me, just do what you want."

"Okay." Teddy looked like a very honest person.

"Please sit down first and get closer to each other," Rita said.

Su Mo and Faker each found a chair to sit down, then moved closer to each other, one on the left and one on the right.

Luo Xin took out a camera and started filming.

Rita took out an interview script, glanced at it briefly, and then asked, "Are you ready, both of you?"

Su Mo nodded: "I'm fine."

Faker nodded as well.
So the interview began, and Rita said, "Hello everyone, I'm Rita, guess where I am now?"

"This is the training room of the T1 team. Today we have invited two guests."

Luo Xin moved the camera away from Rita and aimed it at Faker.

Rita continued: "First up is T1's starting mid laner, the three-time champion, Faker!"

Faker waved his hand as a greeting to the audience.

Then Luo Xin pointed the camera at Su Mo.

Rita continued: "Then there is the legendary all-rounder, the double champion, the pride of our LPL, Brother Mozi!"

Su Mo also waved.

Rita began to ask questions: "You two are both legendary players, and you have played against each other many times. Can you tell us about your impressions of each other? Faker goes first."

Faker thought about it for a few seconds before saying, "I first noticed Mo at the S7 MSI. At that time, we thought we would definitely win the MSI championship."

"Although EDG had a lot of support online at that time, I didn't pay much attention to it. Unexpectedly, the MSI championship was taken away by EDG."

Rita asked: "What was Faker's mood at that time? Can you talk about it?"

Faker smiled and replied: "We were not prepared at the time. Mo had a huge impact on us. We had never seen such a player before."

"So now, what is Faker's impression of Mo?"

Faker replied: "Very special, unique, and very difficult to deal with."

Rita looked at Su Mo again and asked, "Brother Mo, what is your impression of Faker?"

Su Mo began to answer: "The first time I heard of the ID Faker was when I was in junior high school. A classmate of mine took me to watch the LCK game, and he was also the one who got me into League of Legends."

Rita smiled and said, "So, is Mozi still in touch with that classmate? Are you grateful that he brought you into the game, or do you feel like you were cheated?"

Su Mo suddenly fell silent when he heard this, because he was talking about what happened before he traveled through time. In this world, he and that classmate had no intersection at all.

Seeing that Su Mo suddenly stopped talking, Rita frowned slightly and said, "If it's hard to answer, Brother Mozi, just continue with the previous question."

Su Mo said: "My first impression of Faker was his confidence. At that time, LCK was still called OGN, and Faker's team was still called SKT T1K."

"Every time T1K plays a game, the director gives a close-up of Faker, and Faker always looks extremely confident. Later, after SKT lost in S7, my impression of Faker was that he was tenacious. After a short period of adjustment, T1 once again came to MSI, and I think this is a good thing."

Rita nodded and continued, "What are your expectations for this MSI? Faker, please answer first."

Faker said: "This year we T1 went through a reorganization. Although the spring season went through some twists and turns, we still won the championship in the end."

"This MSI championship is very important to us T1. It is the first step towards our success, so we will try our best."

Faker was in a relatively relaxed state just now, but now he suddenly became extremely serious, and it was obvious that he was not joking.

Rita looked at Su Mo: "Where's Brother Mozi?"

Su Mo replied: "I can feel Faker's determination. At the same time, this new T1 is indeed very strong, but I can only express my regret. This championship is definitely for us EDG. This is a very important step for us to win three consecutive championships and three Grand Slams."

Hearing this, Luo Xin was surprised: "Wow! What a handsome brother Mozi!"

Rita continued to ask: "Next question, both of you have expressed your determination to win this championship, do you have a plan on how to defeat each other? Can you reveal a little bit?"

Su Mo and Faker looked at each other and smiled.

"Player Faker, you go first."

Faker said: "Let him take the first step on this question."

Rita smiled and said, "It seems like Faker has some concerns, so let Mozi go first."

Su Mo replied: "Of course, we will use EDG's elusive and unbreakable tactics and bottomless hero pool."

"Although T1 is very strong, I don't see the possibility that T1 can deal with us, if I may be frank."

Faker responded: "Confidence is a virtue, but arrogance often leads to failure. Mo is too confident. EDG is not without flaws now."

The interview was in progress when suddenly, footsteps were heard at the door, followed by a familiar voice:

"Faker! Brother Mozi!"

Su Mo looked over and saw Perkz standing at the door with an excited look on his face.

"We are interviewing..." Rita originally wanted to remind Perkz not to come in.

However, Perkz didn't care about that. He strode in, pulled a chair from the side, and sat between Su Mo and Faker: "I want to be interviewed too, count me in!"

"This..." Luo Xin looked at Rita, not knowing what to do.

Although the video can be edited, just cut out the part where Perkz rushes in.

But if he refuses to leave, the interview cannot continue.

Rita had no choice but to say, "Okay, let Perkz join in as well."

Luo Xin pointed the camera at Perkz, who was very familiar with him and introduced himself: "I am G2's starting ADC, Perkz!"

Rita said: "This is G2's starting ADC, Perkz, who has never won any international championships."

She knew Perkz was thick-skinned, so there would be no problem saying this.

Sure enough, Perkz was not angry at all. Instead, he started to speak glibly: "I am the starting ADC of G2 who is about to win the MSI championship, Perkz!"

Faker shook his head helplessly, seeming to be a little overwhelmed.

Perkz continued: "Quick, ask me a question, what were you guys asking just now? Ask me again."

Rita asked, "Perkz, what are your impressions of Faker and Mo?"

Hearing this, Perkz first glanced at Su Mo, then looked at Faker and said, "Faker has always been my idol. I have learned a lot from watching his game videos."

Perkz changed the subject: "But in the past two years, Faker's luck seems to be not very good, and his teammates are not very good. Faker, come to our G2, let's win the championship together!"

Su Mo smiled. As expected of Perkz, he was quite good at making things happen.

Faker asked back: "What about Caps? Does he know you have this idea?"

Perkz looked disgusted: "Who is Caps? I don't know him well. Is he also a professional player?"

"Pfft..." Luo Xin couldn't help laughing out loud.

Rita asked: "Perkz, what is your impression of Mo?"

"What a thief!" Perkz exclaimed, looking at Su Mo with stars in his eyes! (End of this chapter)
