For Love of the Game

Zhang Jiayan's passionate speech after the game not only made Shen Huai's blood boil, but also excited the fans of "City of Despair".

WG has a lot of male fans, and most of them go for Zhang Jiayan's superb operation and straightforward personality. The idols have spoken out in public, and the fans naturally want to support them.

That night, Zhang Jiayan’s post about fighting against Shen Huai was placed at the top of the forum post bar, and all major e-sports news websites reported the news in eye-catching sections. WG fans spontaneously cheered for the Yan team, because The momentum was too strong, and Cang Yu's fans were not to be outdone, and initiated the topic of Yu Shen's victory.

Si Qianjin, who had just lost the game, also stepped in and tweeted in support of Shen Huai. The fans were relieved to see him so energetic.

Before the match between the two teams started, the warm-up was in full swing.

The official match between Fengyue and WG will be next Saturday, and before that, they will go through a week of special training before the match.

This special training is completely aimed at every player of WG, from the characteristics of the enemy's style of play, attack style to the skill CD of each commonly used skill, it can be said that it is a training specially planned to face WG.

The competition did not stop this week. The four eliminated teams decided their rankings in advance according to the rules of the semi-finals. Thunderbolt Wannian's fifth ranked at the top, followed by the Chenxi team led by Tao Lele.

The Supper team was criticized because of Manager Wang, and was eliminated by Fengyue in the quarter-finals. The team members were in a state of mind. They lost to Chenxi this year and only got No.7.

As a rookie team, the Dream Team has no professional coaching guidance, and its strength is far inferior to the top eight teams. As expected, it came to the bottom.

Most of the netizens sneered at the Dream Team. A Poor Ghost team that started from an Internet cafe without a fixed training ground, made it to the quarter-finals thanks to the luck of the group draw this year. The great gods are divided into groups, otherwise, with their strength, they would not even be able to finish the group stage.

There are also a small number of netizens who think that it is not easy for a group of children to form a team to go to the national competition, and they are also very talented. If they are given the same resources and professional training guidance as the top eight teams, they will definitely become an outstanding team. .

This matter has been arguing on the Internet and there is no context. There are too many teams in the e-sports circle who want to fight for fame, and the Dream Team is just one of them.

Luo Lie, the captain of the dream team, admitted in an interview after the game that he might not participate in the professional league next year, because the team's funds are tight, and if they fail to get the bonus of this year's national competition, they may not be able to last this winter.

Luo Lie was still calm when he said this, his back was straight, the underdeveloped boy looked thin and thin, his exposed arms were barely fleshy, but those dark eyes were like bright glass beads A trace of impurities, with the unique vigor and bloodiness of this age.

The deputy captain next to him couldn't control himself and cried on the spot. Luo Lie didn't know what to do when he saw him crying. It was the first time for the two young children to stand in front of the reporter and they still couldn't learn how to control themselves. Emotions seem to be a little overwhelmed.

This scene was photographed by a reporter and posted on the Internet, but it did not get everyone's sympathy. Some people said that they should go home and go to school after crying after losing a game, while others said that rookies are not qualified to cry.

In short, there are few good words and many bad words.

Their feelings can only be understood by fellow players.

Those were not tears of grievance from losing the game, but tears of despair because of unwillingness to stop here.

Hai Xing felt uncomfortable. He was able to be here today because he got into a good team by luck. Without Fengyue, his level might not be as good as the members of the dream team.

He tweeted to cheer for the Dream Team, but it didn't have much effect.

No circle can go far by relying on sympathy, even Shen Huai won today by relying on strength.

On the second day after all the last four ranking matches ended, Maple Moon ushered in an unexpected visitor.

Luo Lie's arrival surprised everyone. After all, they were not familiar with the Dream Team, and they hadn't even spoken to each other once.

Luo Lie was also quite embarrassed, he came to the door by himself, "I came to say hello, our team is leaving tomorrow."

Zhou Ning asked, "Why are you in such a hurry? Don't you leave after watching the national competition?"

The competition committee provided each team with free entry to watch the game. The National Finals is currently the highest-level competition of "City of Despair" in China. Even if many teams are eliminated, they will watch the game on the spot before leaving .

Luo Lie blushed, "We don't have enough funds, we can't stay for too long..."

There are still two weeks left in the finals schedule, and living in Beijing is a huge expense. For a team that has just been established and has no endorsement income, it is indeed a bit difficult to maintain by recruiting team funds.

"I came here because I wanted..." His gaze instantly locked onto Shen Huai who was in the center of the crowd, "I want to fight Yushen! Please!"

He bowed deeply, his shoulders were trembling with nervousness, everyone could see how much courage he had mustered up to say this, presumably it was his job to compete with Cang Yu in the national competition. Dream of life.

Shen Huai looked at the top of his head and responded, "Okay."

Everyone immediately packed up their things and made room for them, and the two sat facing each other to log in to the game on two computers.

Luo Lie's fingers trembled a little. He didn't sleep all night last night. Thinking that the team he had built would be over, and thinking that all his teammates would leave in all directions, he felt suffocated and uncomfortable.

In addition, there is a deep unwillingness.

When he impulsively ran over to shake Cang Yu's hand on the day of the opening ceremony, he was thinking that as long as he had a fight with Cang Yu, he would have no regrets in his trip to Beijing.

However, he failed to realize even such a simple dream.

At dawn, he ran out of the hotel and wandered the streets for two hours before he suddenly realized that he had already come to Beijing and met Cang Yu himself, so why not beg him to have a fight with him? field?Even if Cang Yu disagrees, it's better than regretting it later!

The moment he touched the mouse, Luo Lie's state quickly adjusted. He added the innate skill points he had been familiar with for a long time, and opened a custom single-player arena with Shen Huai.

Both of them were assassins, and the invisibility at the beginning was just delaying the rhythm, so both of them coincidentally did not use general skills, but jumped directly into the ring.

In order to use the assassin's "Chain Blade" skill, Luo Lie chose a dagger and a scythe as weapons. The advantage is that the scythe's attack range is larger than that of the dagger, which is equivalent to increasing its range. A high-quality skill that can only be released by wearing double blades.

Since he chose the mid-to-long range output style of play, Luo Lie's point additions and equipment selection are also based on this purpose, focusing on attack speed.He saw Shen Huai rushing over and throwing a red sickle blade from a distance. The sickle tied by the chain showed curved thorns, like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter.

Shen Huai also piled on attack speed, but more on agility. His moving speed was very fast, and he didn't dodge when he saw the scythe flying towards him. Twice the keyboard.

Roll right, run fast!

This arc-shaped move was first used in the group stage when the battle division was advancing, and it has since become Shen Huai's signature move. The skill used to avoid long-range high trajectory speed has been tried and tested!

The assassin on the screen instantly drew a semicircle, not only dodged the attack of the red sickle blade, but also cut to Luo Lie's back with lightning speed.

Dementia!Marked for Death - Backstab - Heartstab - Assassination - Dark Sword!

Seeing Shen Huai's operation, instead of being nervous, Luo Lie showed excitement in his eyes, as if he was admiring a great work of art, his whole face was filled with high spirits.

He can be sure of this set of combos alone, Cang Yu didn't let him down at all, he didn't play it perfunctorily because he was just a little-known rookie, let alone because he sympathized with what happened to him, he gave himself as an opponent Respect!

Shen Huai's set of combos knocked out 15% of his blood volume. Even with the critical strike bonus of the death mark, the damage in the full blood state is not high at all, and his blood volume is higher than Luo's in the next attack. Lie, it is no longer possible to play the control effect of dementia.

Luo Lie seized this opportunity and slammed out a death scythe. The sharp knife of the scythe firmly gripped the waist of the enemy. When the assassin moved towards the target he hooked, his movement speed would increase. Like a ghost, the short dagger in his left hand pierced the enemy's chest in the blink of an eye.

Whirlwind Blade!

When attacking the enemy, there will be wind damage. Like poison poison damage, wind damage is also legal damage, so Luo Lie's assassin is also a school of both physical and legal skills.

Poison damage can superimpose the bleeding state on the enemy. Wind damage is more special. Enemies marked by the wind blade will be knocked away when attacked by the sickle blade. The effect lasts up to 7 times!

He immediately burst into hand speed, bloody sickle dance!Gale Blade - Deadly Scythe!Biting cold wind - soul lock sickle!

One wind attack plus one lock sickle attack will test the player's reaction ability and patience, and the combo will be broken if there is a slight mistake.

Hai Xing stared straight at Luo Lie's skill frame. It would be fine if there were only two or three wind attack sickle attack methods, but it is not easy to make seven consecutive moves. He was so angry that Luo Lie was so young, how could he come up with such a tormenting style of play?

The speed of this combo must be fast, and the key to victory is to give the enemy no chance to counterattack.Luo Lie pressed his fingers quickly, but his expression was unhurried, and 7 consecutive hits knocked out 40% of Shen Huai's HP!

There will be a 30-second built-in cd after the knock-up effect reaches seven times. Everyone thought that he was exhausted this time, but just as Shen Huai's character was about to land, Luo Lie immediately made up a move of locking the sickle!

Enemies hooked by the chain blade will be stunned for 2 seconds, Luo Lie took advantage of these two seconds to press the ultimate move - Dance of Death!

Everyone in Fengyue, who was watching the battle, was sweating for Shen Huai. Shen Huai had been passively beaten since he was hooked by Luo Lie's long chain of death. The scenes all happened to Shen Huai!

When Shen Huai's control state ended, only 30% of his HP was left, and all of Luo Lie's skills were also gone. Next, he had at least 20 seconds of skill vacuum!

However, just when everyone was expecting Shen Huai to fight back, Luo Lie suddenly pressed the general skill to lurk, and the character disappeared into the ring out of thin air.

Starfish couldn't help shouting, "It's too cloudy!"

Shen Huai's eyes showed a bit of approval. The core of this style of play is very clear. Using two sets of control skills to beat the enemy into residual blood, and then using stealth to avoid the skill vacuum period, the style of play is very spiritual.

Shen Huai stood quietly on the ring, with 30% of his blood volume, he was not in a hurry, he didn't have group attack skills, and he couldn't find Luo Lie's position with a blind attack, but Luo Lie would definitely find him.

Just 23 seconds later!

Shen Huai knew every skill of the assassin too well. From the time Luo Lie released the first skill, Shen Huai knew the cd of every skill.

Luo Lie was also very smart, he didn't attack immediately after 23 seconds, but waited for two seconds before making a sudden attack - Death Scythe!

However, the moment he appeared, Shen Huai pressed the ambush button, one step ahead of his ability to become invisible!

If there is an audience in this scene, they will definitely scream with excitement.

Shen Huai could choose to be invisible at the same time as Luo Lie was invisible. Everyone's invisibility lasted for the same amount of time. The one who was invisible first would definitely show up first, but this would definitely slow down the rhythm.Shen Huai didn't do this, but after luring Luo Lie to show up, he lost time and entered the invisible state!

The real boss didn't run away, only retreated tactically.

The moment Luo Lie saw Shen Huai disappearing, he knew he was doomed. The latent skill CD was very long, and he only had one chance in this arena.

He stared at the screen vigilantly, trying to avoid his skills the moment he appeared like Shen Huai did.

But the reason why Cang Yu is Cang Yu is because his operation cannot be imitated.

The moment Shen Huai appeared, Luo Lie couldn't react at all, his strikes were too fast, and he had to be beaten up twice in a row!

These two sets of combos reduced Luo Lie's blood volume to 20%, lower than Shen Huai's, which meant that Shen Huai's next attack would not be able to use Dementia.

Luo Lie made a quick move, the whirlwind blade, the locking sickle blade, and the blades danced wildly!

The flying sharp blade wiped out the last trace of Shen Huai's blood, and the word "Immunity" popped up above Shen Huai's head. He rushed in front of Luo Lie with one move, and the double blades in his hands were glowing with scarlet blood.

Marked for Death-Assassination-Blood Blade-Shadow Double Blade-Blade Flurry!

The burst damage of this combo is 40%, and Luo Lie still owes him 20% of his HP. When the character falls to the ground, he is not only convinced of the loss, but also has no regrets.

Luo Lie was about to get up to thank him, but Shen Huai suddenly said, "You cancel the skill points of Dance of Death, and point to the whirlwind leg, shuriken, and escape from the ninjutsu department."

Shen Huai spoke concisely, Luo Lie was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was teaching himself, so he immediately re-added the skill points according to Shen Huai's statement. He was very smart, and changed his shoes into For those who increase the movement speed, the extended acceleration time is also pointed out in the talent skills.

Seeing this, Shen Huai appreciated Luo Lie a little more.

He has always agreed with one sentence - there are no weak professions, only poor players.

"City of Despair" is a well-designed game, and it has also tended to be perfected in its six-year runtime. Each class has its own characteristics, as long as you are willing to develop it.

"Here, don't be invisible, whirlwind legs, dodge, shuriken... run fast, earth escape."

The arena between the two of them this time was much more relaxed than the last time. Shen Huai didn't talk much, but every sentence was on point. Luo Lie was also smart, and could understand a little bit. This time, he was much more diligent than before.

Everyone in Fengyue applauded with dignity, and Hai Xing was the first to say, "Luo Lie, you fought well! To be able to beat like this in Shen Huai's hands is really amazing!"

Luo Lie's face flushed slightly, he knew how much he weighed, he owed Shen Huai a lot of blood when he was killed just now, and even if he was full of blood, Shen Huai could still fight against Supper If you swipe the shadow mark again like you used to do, you can't win no matter how you fight.

He was very grateful in his heart, never expected that Cang Yu not only agreed to his request for PK, but also patiently pointed out to him who met by chance.To know the guidance of a god-level assassin like Cang Yu, no one can ask for it.

Luo Lie was so happy. During the hour spent with Shen Huai, he deeply understood what it means to "begin with operation and end with character". Shen Huai is not only a respectable player, but also an admirable Idol!

After today, he admired Shen Huai even more, and said sincerely, "God Feather, thank you for your guidance! Even if I don't play professional games, I will always support you!"

Shen Huai was moved in his heart.

It's not that he hasn't tried the wind attack style, but the skill vacuum period of this style is too long, and he can only play two sets at most, so he has no choice in the end, but Luo Lie's style of play made him see more Big possibility.

It's a pity that such a player doesn't play professional games.

He couldn't help but look at Song Xueyang. Song Xueyang understood immediately, and said lightly, "The training camps of all teams recruit people every year. With your level of professional guidance, it is not difficult to stand out from the crowd in the training camp."

Luo Lie was slightly taken aback, he could tell that Song Xueyang was pointing out a way for him to rejoin the professional team as an individual.

It would be a lie to say that he was not moved, but thinking of the silent tears of the team members who lost the game yesterday, his throat tightened and his tone was firm.

"I would rather leave this stage than give up my teammates."

Song Xueyang smiled slightly, but did not answer.

In a few years, he will understand how ridiculous it is to delay his future because of others, but he is not qualified to speak of others.

Shen Huai's heart was shaken.

These words sound a bit fanciful, unrealistic, and have the childishness unique to a boy of this age. Even many years later, he may regret what he said today.

But at this moment, Shen Huai remembered Yao Junli's invitation to Song Xueyang to join God of War as the captain.

At that time, Song Xueyang was a little older than Luo Lie, but he didn't hesitate in what he said.

——Even if I lose the game, I will not give up the team.

Luo Lie's figure in front of him gradually overlapped with Song Xueyang's figure surrounded by reporters at that time, until they merged into one, Shen Huai suddenly woke up.

He clenched his fists and made up his mind, "I can sponsor the Dream Team."
