Chapter 42
"It's okay." Zhao Hui greeted them backstage. "You played well. It was my drafting problem."
Le Anyi: "Their BP is so cunning. It's really amazing."
After the lineup was picked, it became clear that they deliberately gave Jarvan IV to FRI. But in reality, FRI also deliberately gave them Kindred, who was supposed to counter Jarvan IV. It was a trick within a trick. The goal was to trick them into thinking they were going with a regular lineup. After they had picked Kindred, Aphelios, and Graves, a bunch of AD heroes with all-physical damage, they suddenly picked Nunu.
Actually, I didn't suddenly decide to roam because I realized I couldn't beat Lingyin. Nunu's pick was a way of telling you from the start: Sorry, I'm kidding you. I didn't intend to fight you in lane. No matter how good you are at laning, I'll make sure you don't have any place to use your skills.
Nunu pushes and roams to avoid his laning opponents, while Stone and Malphite perfectly counteract the bursts of Aphelios and Graves. This effectively tricks you into picking a bunch of AD carry, but your AD carry is completely useless. Furthermore, Kindred is a jungle carry, making it even harder to deal with their roaming.
That's why the game looked like this: Fiora was constantly being caught and dying, Graves was trying his best but found it was of no use, Aphelios couldn't kill many people even with his maximum output, Thresh was not very effective, and Kindred was invisible the entire time.
"Forget about the first game, we'll review it later." Zhao Hui said, "They probably won't be able to come up with any weird lineups in the next game, so just play normally."
The game soon came to the second round.
Still no one banned Zeli. Qu Xing leaned back and suddenly smiled, "Brother Hui, I'm going to take Zeli. You pick the roaming lineup."
Having already lost a round in a Bo3, picking a meta-defying hero in the second round was a dangerous proposition. If they lost, their day would be completely over. But Zhao Hui only thought for two seconds before calmly nodding, "Okay."
Lan Feng: “Ah???????”
Qingyi: "Zeli???????"
The audience was in an uproar.
"Dan Zeli has suffered an epic nerf in this version." Lan Feng said while suppressing his excitement.
Qing Yi thought about it and said, "Suddenly, it seems that this isn't a bad idea. After all, what makes Zeli so strong in Dazzling's hands is her mechanics, not her numbers."
Lineup selection.
DL is: Qinggangying, Lee Sin, Sylas, Zeli, Rakan
FRI is: Ornn, Pig Girl, Tsar, Aphelios, Leona
It's showtime.
Qu Xing's skin was Phantom Rose. Seeing the pretty pink-haired girl come online, FRI's AD suddenly felt a little nervous.
"Suddenly I feel like I shouldn't let Zeli go..."
The pink-haired girl leaped back and forth between the soldiers, raised her hand to form a gun shape, and a flash of electric sparks shot out. Although it didn't hurt, he still felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Soon, Zeli reached level two and vanished from view. When she reappeared, her abilities had already arrived before her. A pink-purple pulse laser pierced the wall, striking Jinx with pinpoint accuracy. Jiang Lin then cast Ignite on her.
Jinx is forced to give up her healing.
6 minutes.
Zeli vanished from view once again. Sejuani was still diligently working on the blue buff when, with a cool sound effect, a pink-purple pulse pierced through the wall and struck him. Before he could react, Lingyin stole his R from him and froze him. Zeli secured the kill. Then, with two pink braids, she followed Lingyin back from the jungle to the center. Before she even left the river, she unleashed a pulse, striking the returning Tsar from behind the river wall. With Lingyin's help, she killed him.
In just a short while, he took two heads, and the whole process was light and effortless.
He Weichen took down the Void Nester painlessly.
Lan Feng: "Even though two people died at once, I still feel like this scene is so harmonious. Why is that?"
Qingyi: "Ze Li is so beautiful."
Lan Feng imitated Ze Li's crisp special effects sound: "biubiubiu~"
Qing Yi: “Swish, swish, swish~”
Lan Feng: “Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~”
12-minute team fight for the little dragon.
Thanks to their advantage in the minion lane, Jiang Lin had already set up wards, and Zeli once again disappeared from view. FRI knew Zeli was definitely nearby, but there was nothing they could do; the dragon still needed to be fought for. A group of people trembled as they approached the dragon pit.
Suddenly, a beautiful pulse of light swung over, hitting Leona squarely. Then, a pink and purple special effect swirled beneath her feet—it was Zeli's ultimate move, "Super Flash."
Leona is dead.
At the same time, the super-limit flash triggered acceleration, and Zeli jumped onto the wall with an E skill and slid to the other side flexibly along the wall. Not long after the Tsar was resurrected, he was beaten to half blood by Ling Yin, and was hit by Zeli's W that passed through the wall, and faced his second death in despair.
Xiaolong was also taken down painlessly.
15 minutes.
The signal in the FRI map is flashing wildly.
"Why did Zeli disappear again?"
"Where are you now?"
"It should be in the lower jungle area now. It disappeared from the lower jungle area."
“He went in alone???”
Lan Feng looked at the scene on the screen and asked excitedly, "What is Dazzling doing going into the jungle alone?"
Zeli used her E skill to jump up the wall from the stone beetle, being very careful not to attack the wild monsters to avoid exposing her position. Then she stopped at the edge of the grass by the red buff.
Lan Feng: "Pig sister is walking towards the magic frog. He doesn't know that Zeli is nearby."
Qu Xing quietly counted the distance in his mind, waiting for Piglet to enter the W range.
Soon, Sejuani reached the Gromp, joined by Zeli's powerful laser, which pierced through the red buff wall. Sejuani was accurately hit, her health plummeting from 1800 to 1200. He frantically signaled Qu Xing's location to his teammates, forcing him to abandon the jungle monster and retreat.
After running away for only two steps, he saw Zeli's super flash rising from under his feet again. Zeli moved very fast, bypassing the red buff and chasing after him.
With a "bang".
Pig Girl flashed over the wall and escaped to F6.
Just when he thought his life was saved, Zeli's E skill just finished cooling down. She nimbly jumped onto the wall again, climbed over the F6 wall and chased after him. The moment she landed, her W skill also finished cooling down.
The ghostly pulse laser that seemed to be always following her passed through the wall and hit Piglet accurately again, completing the kill.
By the time Tsar's TP ward landed and Leona came to support from the bottom lane, Qu Xing had already escaped by relying on the acceleration effect of the last few seconds of Super Flash.
Lan Feng: "What is this!!"
Qingyi: "Three Walls Playing with Pigs!!!"
The audience laughed.
20 minutes.
Ling Yin said: "Xingxing go to the jungle to lure them out, we will destroy the middle tower."
Qu Xing: "Okay, brother."
After saying this, Qu Xing went into the opposite jungle area.
Just as FRI's mid, jungle, and support were about to leave the red buff, a small green portrait of Zeli appeared on the minimap, right near them.
Several people were pinging the signal frantically.
"He's the only one?"
Another person confirmed the view: "He's the only one."
“Chase, chase, chase!”
“Kill, kill, kill!”
Qu Xing was in the FRI jungle, with basically no vision, and had no idea where the FRI players were, so he could only make his judgments in the dark. But in the eyes of the audience with a God's perspective, it was not like that.
Zeli kept a certain distance from the three FRI men, neither accelerating to distance them nor getting close enough to be hit. As if toying with them, she climbed over three walls and headed straight for the FRI high ground.
FRI's mid, jungle and support followed closely, and the team's several audio tracks intertwined and overlapped, making it as chaotic as a group of sparrows holding a meeting on a tree branch in the evening.
"I can get over the wall. I can get over the wall."
"Wait, wait, they're demolishing the tower, let's defend it first."
"It's okay, it's okay. Kill the man first, then I can touch him!"
One of the top ten illusions in the league: I can touch Dazzling.
Lan Feng was so anxious that he stood up and tried to climb onto the table. "What are you doing?! FRI!! Eh!!! You don't want your family anymore? Just to kill Daisy, do you not want your family anymore?"
Soon, Zeli jumped out of the jungle lightly and joined up with her teammates who had just destroyed the highland tower.
Seeing the situation was dire, FRI turned to retreat. But Ling Yin gave them no time to react, manipulating Sylas to twist and dash forward, catching up. The rest of the team followed closely behind. Qu Xing also calmly turned around and followed from a distance, flinging his W through the wall while accelerating past the limit and sliding into the crowd. He held his empty gun, colorful sparks emanating from it, and attacked at a rapid speed, hitting several FRI members one after another.
Lan Feng: "Zeli is scraping, but he's already scratched the bone! His equipment is too good and the scraping is really painful! Double kill, triple kill achieved!"
Qing Yi: "It's time for a wave."
In 22 minutes, DL ended the second game.
Lan Feng sighed: "This is the DL style of painting, so scary."
Qing Yi smiled and said, "Yes, I hope FRI can quickly adjust in the third game and not be too affected."
After a moment of silence, Lan Feng said, "But ending the game in such a powerless way will definitely affect your condition."
At the end of the game, Qu Xing's record was 10-0 and Ling Yin's record was 8-0.
Qing Yi: "These two people..."
Lan Feng said without thinking: "Or maybe they are a pair."
Back in the lounge, Le Anyi grinned and said, "It feels so good. At first, I only knew the fear of being dominated by this Zeli, but now I understand the joy of dominating others."
Jiang Lin: "Let them realize that Ze Li, who can kill Ling Yin six times in a single game, is no joke."
In the third game, both teams got their regular lineups.
FRI was able to beat DL with their clever draft and tactical design, but if it was just a matter of individual strength, probably no team other than UNG could even come close to DL. This is why DL didn't have any scrimmages to play - they were just too self-absorbed!
In the second game, Qu Xing's aura was so strong that it looked like he was the only one showing off. But the third game was different; almost all five players were showing off. The match was a three-way explosion, sparks flying everywhere, and the passion was so intense that it felt as if Ze Li from the previous game was still on the court giving them a taste of the action.
Lan Feng: "Congratulations to DL for defeating FRI 2-1. Meanwhile, although their small-game winning streak was broken today, their large-game winning streak is still intact. Meanwhile, UNG also maintained their undefeated record in large-game matches. The next match will be the first clash between the complete DL and UNG. I'm looking forward to it!"
After the game, Ling Yin was left behind for an interview.
When someone tall, long, and beautiful stood there, the audience erupted in excitement. The host smiled broadly: "I heard you guys are too strong so you don't have any practice matches, right?"
Ling Yin smiled: "Yeah."
Host: "So what did you do during that time?"
Ling Yin said gently, "Just do what you need to do."
Host: "What if you can't play training matches after that? Will you explore a new training method?"
How is it possible that they can’t play training matches all the time... unless they are crazy. Ling Yin complained in his heart, but just smiled casually and said nonchalantly: "Then let's go out and play."
"Hahahaha, what a cool attitude." The host laughed happily, asked a few more questions and let Ling Yin go back.
The live broadcast barrage was full of joy.
[Husband, don’t go out to play, play with me at home]
Your husband wants to play with Daisy at the base.
[I laughed so hard to find that Fengshen still likes to go out and play]
[The young couple played really well]
A group of people backstage were passionately reviewing the first game.
Le Anyi: "Actually, I think we can switch lanes."
He Weichen: "It's useless to change it. Can you swim faster than Nunu?"
Zhao Hui: "It's mainly a lineup issue. Picking a bunch of AD carries is useless in teamfights."
Song Tianhua: "You guys are almost killing them, you little idiots."
Zhao Hui: “Hiss—”
Song Tianhua: "But it's mainly our fault. I remember seeing their mid laner playing Nunu but didn't pay much attention to analyze it. I thought he was just playing around."
Qu Xing hid aside and watched the backstage video. Ling Yin walked over and pinched his neck.
"I feel like we can actually win this level, if Thresh learns E." Qu Xing looked at the screen and said, "We can double purify."
Ling Yin lifted Qu Xing up and sat on him, then forced him to sit on his lap. He took the mouse and looked at it: "It's a bit extreme - but it's definitely possible if it's you."
Qu Xing: “…”
He glared at Ling Yin, not moving his butt, but sternly condemning her: "What are you doing, brother? The camera hasn't even left yet, and you're already acting so wildly?"
Ling Yin slid the mouse to watch the replay, put his arm around his waist and pulled him closer to her, saying nonchalantly, "It's okay, they'll just think we've always been like this."
Qu Xing crossed his arms and was about to speak, but Ling Yin said seriously, "It seems the support here is two seconds late. What do you think?"
Qu Xing glanced at it and said: "It's slow, but it's useless even if it's fast."
Ling Yin: "If I were two seconds faster, I could have killed two."
Qu Xing: "I can't kill him."
Ling Yin: "Why?"
Qu Xing said expressionlessly, "Because you are using your own strength to estimate your teammates, no matter how fast you come, Linlin will die."
Ling Yin: “…Oh.”
"Let's go, little couple! I can't stand watching you being so sweet and affectionate."
Qu Xing stood up and pulled him, saying pretentiously, "What's the point of being so sloppy?!"
At first, no one paid much attention to Ling Yin's words "go out and play" in the post-match interview. Someone even cut it out and posted it online as a joke.
Until a few comments appeared.
[Seriously]: Professional players don’t have that much time to play during training, right?
[Little Blackie]: Doesn't he have enough fun? He's busy hyping up his CP with his teammates all day long.
[Suspiciousness]: I don’t know why, but I feel like he seems to be getting more and more relaxed.
The seeds of doubt were sown, and a useless and inexplicable speculation with the core issue of "Is Ling Yin really a great professional player with firm beliefs and strong will" suddenly began to get out of control.
There is no way to know whether his belief is firm or not. Judging from his eyes, it seems that this person has nothing to do with firmness.
Ling Yin was the type of person who seemed casual about everything he did. His eyes mirrored his mother's, smiling a bit but not often, often concealing a lazy tranquility. He was also a go-with-the-flow type, embracing a Buddhist approach to life—it was unknown why someone like him would choose the passionate path of a professional gamer.
He does have a dream, but in the eyes of Ling Yin's parents, the reason why their son is so determined in his dream is probably because he is too lazy to change his dream. He has a path that he likes very much, so he just quietly tries his best to follow it.
In short, Ling Yin would often act casually when his livestreams ran out of time. When he encountered abstract teammates in a Rank match, he would simply say, "Maybe we should just quit," though he never did. His attitude seemed incredibly relaxed. When he lost a match, his biggest reaction was to lean back in his chair and quietly close his eyes to calm down. As for whether he shed tears or trembled with regret, no one knew.
I don’t know, so I don’t have it.
Anyway, for various reasons, a very stupid entry rushed to the top of the League of Legends hot topic list.
——Wind said that if there is no training match, we can go out and play——
