Don't call me a cookie [eSports]

After winning the semi-finals, the teammates discovered that their captain and team darling didn't give dog food anymore? !

The two of them regularly participate in training, replays, and tactical meetings every day. Most of the conversations are about heroes and operations, and they don't even hold hands.

Strange, really strange!

Five days before the finals, Erha finally couldn't help asking:

"There's something wrong with you, where's the daily special dog food?"

Xia Ran was practicing new heroes, and took the time to reply:

"I did ideological work for the captain, and I have to do my best to prepare for the finals during this time!"

The teammate immediately cast a sympathetic look at Yan Yi:

It turns out that the captain didn't choose to be a vegetarian...

Seeing Xia Ran's lowered head and concentration, they thought to themselves:

During this period of preparation for the finals, Cookie was a little... They didn't know how to describe it, but it was just too serious.

It is a good thing to be serious, but if they are too serious, they are afraid that the cookies will be too tight...

Then, Rong Mo informed:

"Everyone will practice for the last half an hour, and we will have a tactical meeting after dinner."

"Roger that!"

In the second semi-final held yesterday, REO, who lost before, did not give Glight another chance, and got the second ticket to enter the finals 4:1, which means that the fifth KPL championship will be held in Born in REO and TL.

conference room.

Rong Mo finished playing yesterday's REO match for them, and asked them:

"Do you think this team has a breakthrough?"

The boys suddenly felt familiar. When they were going to face REO in the regular season before, they didn't know what to do, and they replayed REO's game over and over again, but they still lost that game...

"In a word, martial arts in the world can only be done quickly."

Everyone looked at Yan Yi in surprise.

"I mean, REO has a breakthrough."

Yan Yi explained:

"Their team is best at the operation of boiling frogs in warm water. The early game tends to be calm and defensive, and then they will take the lead in the later stage through the operation of the pawn line and the tower."

"This style of play seems to be unbreakable, but like I said, in the world of martial arts, the only thing that can't be broken is speed. If we have a huge advantage in the early stage, will they still have a chance to fight in the later stage?"

Lin Ying was awakened: "That's right! They are not good at invading the jungle in the early stage, but our team is good at it."

Cookie: "Yes, yes, if we fight aggressively in the early stage, we will definitely be able to control their wild area."

Brother Hao: "Then let's follow this line of thinking, first practice some early-stage systems, and then prepare some later-stage systems, so that we can prepare with both hands."

……

In the meeting room, they had a heated discussion, and fans were also praying for them:

May the efforts of these teenagers not be let down.

---------

The days passed day by day, and the daily training was boring but meaningful. Before I knew it, it was finally the day before the finals.

In order to have enough energy to prepare for the BO7 finals tomorrow, Rong Mo canceled the evening training time and urged everyone to go back to the room early to sleep.

Xia Ran and Yan Yi were no exception, they entered their respective rooms after saying good night to each other.

But on such an important night, Xia Ran suffered from insomnia.

The teammates thought it was right, he was indeed too tense these days, he was only one step away from winning the Silver Dragon Cup again, and he didn't allow himself to make any mistakes.

Just thinking about it, he tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep. Looking at the time again, it was almost 12 o'clock now...

Forget it, I can't fall asleep anyway, so use the previous trick to give yourself peace of mind.

He lifted the quilt, put on a cotton coat, walked out of the room, closed the door quietly, and went down to the live broadcast room on the second floor.

Finding a random place to sit down, he turned on the computer, searched for the video of the first finals, put on his earphones, and clicked the play button.

In my memory, I also used this method to decompress in the early morning before the second game after the team lost the first qualifier.

The advertisement before the feature film happened to be the promotional video of this year's KPL Finals. Looking at himself in the team uniform in the picture, he suddenly felt incredible.

Half a year ago, he would never have imagined that he could become a member of TL, and after getting along with the old and new players, they have changed from being a mess at the beginning to being a family now. All these experiences are too rare for Xia Ran... …

He wiped the red corners of his eyes with his fingertips, and suddenly heard a low voice from the door:

"You really haven't changed."

"Ok?"

He stood up, walked towards Yan Yi, and said in a low voice: "Why are you still awake, you were woken up by me?"

Yan Yi was noncommittal, walked over and turned off the video, then took Xia Ran's hand and walked downstairs:

"I wanted to wait until you finished watching the video before taking you there, but I'm afraid it will be past three o'clock after watching it like last time, so let's go directly."

last time?

The pile of cigarette butts I saw in the corridor flashed through Xia Ran's mind, and he suddenly understood that in that late night, during the period when he was always against him, Yan Yi had already stood on the second floor and silently accompanied him...

After he came back to his senses, Yan Yi pushed him into the passenger seat of the Bentley.

He fastens his seat belt and sits meekly.

"Why don't you ask me where I'm going?"

"I trust you a lot."

"it is good."

--------

Yan Yi's car stopped at Shanghai Oriental Sports Center, he helped Xia Ran unbuckle his seat belt, and led Xia Ran to the entrance.

"This is the venue for the finals tomorrow, we are here now..."

Yan Yi smiled and made a "shh" gesture, showing him a bunch of keys.Xia Ran understood immediately, nodded and followed him into the arena.

Because the power was completely cut off at night, Yan Yi took out his mobile phone to illuminate, and finally found his destination.

The surroundings were pitch black, Xia Ran could only follow Yan Yi's guidance, and when Yan Yi stopped, he stopped too.

The next moment, the light source of Yan Yi's mobile phone shines on their right side, and Xia Ran follows the light to see——

It was a KPL commemorative wall, where the light from the mobile phone happened to be the part commemorating the first championship TL. On it was a photo of everyone holding up the Silver Dragon Cup, and engraved with the five points of the last game Team member IDs and the heroes they play...

TL, Prism - Han Xin;

TL, Longevity——Guan Yu;

TL, Batong - Mai Shiranui;

TL, Lao Sun——Xiahou Dun;

TL, Erha——Marco Polo;

Looking at these words, the scene of the finals that was very familiar to Xia Ran reappeared in his mind, and he relaxed miraculously.

Yan Yi stood side by side with him:

"After tomorrow, we will be recorded here forever just like them."

"Well, definitely will."

Xia Ran looked at the wall, found Yan Yi's hand in the dark, and held it tightly with him.

--------

Shanghai Oriental Sports Center.

In this venue that can accommodate 1 people, the upper, middle, lower, and six sides are full of spectators. The fans of the two teams are divided into red and blue camps, holding uniform support banners, waiting excitedly and eagerly for their arrival. The home team comes on.

Hundreds of silver and blue follow-spot lights were swinging and staggering in the audience, and six huge display screens hung from the top of the huge venue, clearly recording the real-time situation of the players and the competition.

This is the game scene that Xia Ran felt after walking out of a long underground passage.

And in front of them, there is a staircase leading to the high platform, the main stage for their competition.

The scale of this large venue is completely different from the previous playoffs. For the first time, Xia Ran truly realized what it means to be under the spotlight.

They were wearing blue and white team uniforms. Standing in front of the steps, they could vaguely hear the host on the high platform introducing them:

"This group of teenagers in their 20s are stubborn and determined, simple and pure. We have every reason to believe that they will recreate the glory of TL today!"

As soon as the words fell, the staff on the side told them: "Now you can go on stage."

Therefore, Xia Ran took the lead to run up the steps, and Yan Yi looked at his back against the light behind him. His slender body was wearing the same team uniform as his own, and his game ID: TL, cookie was printed on it.

Then, "Come on."

The boy stopped just as he was about to step onto the radiant stage, and held out his hand to him.

Yan Yi smiled contentedly as his thinned lips curled up.

Amidst the hoarse screams from the blue camp, the six TL members stood side by side on the stage where the championship was about to be born. After sitting in the players' seats, they all looked at the center of the stage in unison——

There was a silver chasing light on the top, and as the light changed, they could clearly see the Silver Dragon Cup that was placed in the center of the stage, which was the dream of all professional players.

Xia Ran took a deep breath, the voice was not too loud, just enough for all teammates to hear:

"My lords, success or failure depends on one stroke!"

"I just remembered a line from Guan Yu's voice."

Brother Hao's voice was low and bright:

"Victory and faith are all entrusted to Your Excellency."

Victory and faith are all entrusted to you...

Old Sun: "Well said!"

Erha: "Now I'm so excited that I have goosebumps all over my body."

Rong Mo said with a smile: "Keep this passionate state, we must show until everyone's scalps are numb today."

"necessary!"

After boosting morale before the battle, the first round of BP finally started.

According to the previously discussed tactics, they will break REO's strong fortress with fast break in the first game.

Therefore, Rong Mo did not hesitate to lock Pei Qinhu, Jiang Ziya, Taiyi Zhenren, Yang Jian and Xiahou Dun in the selection. The lineup has been settled, and the subsequent victory depends on the performance of the players.

They have practiced this set of lineup very well during their usual training, and now when they enter the game screen, they don't need to communicate, and they each stand where they should be-

Others retreated from the line, Pei Qinhu, Taiyi, and Xiahoudun teamed up to fight against the red. REO seemed to have not expected that TL would play so fiercely. middle.

Relying on these early advantages, coupled with Taiyi's passive money gain and Jiang Ziya's passive experience gain, the first dragon was successfully captured by TL, and then a series of butterfly effects were staged. They invaded at a super fast pace On the opposite side of the field and the two offensive wings, the rhythm of the field is completely controlled by TL.

And Lao Sun's Yang Jian performed exceptionally well in this scene——

Facing the three remaining blood of REO when he was beaten by the Eastern Emperor, Lao Sun and the conductor Yan Yi said:

"Captain, I can kill three times."

Yan Yi replied decisively: "Then go, we will be there soon."

Then, the residual blood Yang Jian did not run away but chased after him, using flash to chase him from a distance of thousands of miles, first with flash and precision, one dog took away one person, then another dog took away the residual blood, and the last dog hit again, followed by the big move He continued his life, and finally completed the triple kill streak under the tower with a very fast hand speed!

[Triple Kill! 】

The sound of the three-kill prompt sounded the audience, and the commentary was amazed:

"It's so fierce, Old Sun, Yang Jian. After being hit by a dog, he flashed from a distance and forcibly cut him to death. This operation reminded me of a sentence related to Old Sun's ID: If you leave and never return, you will never return!"

This triple kill directly sealed the victory for TL, 1:0 in the first game, TL won!

Next, in the second round of selection, REO hadn't figured out TL's current style of play, so this round still used a lineup that was partial to operations.

After enjoying the sweetness in the first game, Rong Mo naturally continued to use the early game thinking. In this game, TL's faster rhythm and overwhelming momentum made REO stumble again, and continued to lead 2:0!

Finally, in the third round of BP, the situation on the field quietly changed.

REO's coach seized the key to TL's early-stage system and directly banned Pei Qinhu and Baili Xuance. In addition, Rong Mo banned Li Yuanfang. There are very few junglers with early-stage rhythm.

In the second round of BP, since REO had locked the shooter and jungler, the remaining two pull positions were all given to Yan Yi. Now, not to mention the early jungler, even the strong jungler position of the version was basically banned.

Even the commentator said: "REO's target is fierce and smart. The coach is not targeting the hero pool of the gods. After all, he is a man who has used Hua Mulan as a jungler, and veteran jungler Li Bai Han Xin also played very well. Six, but the version is too big, the current veteran jungler is too weak, this is targeted by the version."

"Yan Yi, how do you choose?"

There is still 40 seconds to choose. At this moment, Rong Mo must ask for his opinion.

"Choose Luna."

As soon as these words came out, all the staff looked at Yan Yi in unison.

The hero Luna is too special, as long as she plays, she must be the focus of being targeted, and this version of the hero has too much control, which is a fatal limitation for Luna. In this way, the captain's Luna is bound to played very hard...

"Trust me, choose Luna."

Yan Yi smiled softly, and nodded slightly towards them.

"it is good."

They also laughed along with their dignified expressions.

Xia Ran added: "Our captain is the Great Demon King Yan Yi, so feel at ease."

Yan Yi suddenly said:

"Sweetie, remember what you said to me after that TL relegation?"

Xia Ran was stunned for a moment, then repeated the sentence exactly:

"Even if the lineup is poor, I believe that with the cooperation between teammates, there will be a chance to come back!"

At that time, he didn't regard Yan Yi as a teammate, he said this purely to teach him a lesson.

Now, Yan Yi, Brother Hao, Erha, and Lao Sun are all his teammates. He said this sentence at this moment to prove its feasibility.

Life is really amazing.

So, he repeated to Rong Mo again:

"Big sister, choose Luna."

"Okay, it's rare for our team to return to the wild nuclear system, and today we will send our old captain C to debut again!"

Immediately afterwards, Yan Yi locked onto Luna, and the moment Luna's poster appeared on the six huge screens, Luna's iconic voice echoed in the venue:

"Walk for the moon!"

Just these four words gave goosebumps to everyone present.

Just because it is Luna, a hero of faith recognized by new and old players.

"Yeah, how can we forget Yan Yi's Luna, or even say, how can we forget Luna."

The male commentator was a little emotional:

"I commented on the previous four KPLs, and found that we seem to have a tradition. If there is no Luna in the finals, I always feel that something will be missing. Now, Liaoyuan is going against the version. Let us look forward to it. Will Miracle Luna Will return by the moon!"

The moment the game started, everyone's hearts were suspended.

There is no doubt that Luna must be targeted in the early stage. REO came together and left with the blue buff. Five minutes into the game, Yan Yi's Luna hadn't taken a blue buff yet.

However, he has rich experience in resisting pressure. Although he didn't get blue, he withstood REO's fierce attack in the early stage, and his development space is quite good.

On the other hand, it was actually the other four teammates who bought him a certain amount of development time——

When he was under siege from the opposite side, Zhuge Liang's ult had already locked him in, Xia Ran rushed over with a flash, just to help him block Zhuge's ult.

When he was beaten to the point where he was left with blood, Brother Hao's Guiguzi was also left with blood, and he used his second skill to go up and control people, just to help him buy time to escape.

The two sides, Erha and Laosun, specially gave him the pawn line, just to help him make core equipment faster.

In the early days of the team fight, there was only one voice in the team:

"Paulna!"

"Captain, I'm in front of you, you withdraw first."

"The captain is fine, I'm by the side, I can help you block the big one."

It has nothing to do with friendship or morality, because friendship and morality are too emotional, and they can't win the game by relying on these, but it will easily affect their correct judgment of the battle situation.

Their behavior at this moment is what they, as a team of five, must do for each other rationally for the sake of common victory.

As they said before the game, they had entrusted Yan Yi with their victory and faith.

And Yan Yi's Luna is not in vain.

The game time was dragged into Luna's strong period, and once Yan Yi came out of the mountain, the entire Canyon of Kings trembled!

Brother Hao took the lead in entering the REO wild area to explore the field of vision.

Yan Yi seized the opportunity to quickly cut in from the flank, using the terrain and wild monsters in the wild area to perform elegant and agile operations, and even finally took off the heads of three people in the chaotic battlefield with residual blood, completing a section that shocked everyone. Moonlight Dance!

"The gods force me to surrender!"

The fans of the blue camp all stood up spontaneously, and the commentary was also very excited:

"Who said version decides everything, today's TL tells us that every version has a god, and every version has a moon god!"

"Can Luna still play a role in this version, how high is the upper limit of the hero Luna, and the answers to these questions, Liaoyuan told us today!"

At this time, the director spiritually cut the camera to Yan Yi's face, so that deep and indifferent face appeared on the huge screen, and the commentator joked:

"Look, with such a good operation and such a calm face, Liao Yuan is an emotionless killer."

In the next second, the corner of Yan Yi's mouth twitched inexplicably, smiling casually and confidently.

Explanation: "..."

Fan: "Ahhh!"

Actually, here is what the teammate said excitedly after seeing Yan Yi's Tianxiu operation:

"Fucking captain, this wave of meritorious deeds, Sweetie will sleep with you tonight!"

Xia Ran: "...Why did you steal my lines?"

In the end, Yan Yi's Luna blocked and killed the Buddha, and the Buddha blocked and killed the Buddha. TL made another victory as an absolute strongman, and came to the match point first at 3:0!

--------

"call……"

Now leading by a big score, TL all took a deep breath instead.

After all, he is only one point away from winning the Silver Dragon Cup...

Rong Mo put them at ease in another way:

"Tell me, what hero do you want to use, maybe it's the last game, don't leave any regrets for your journey this season."

Old Sun: "I have used Yang Jian."

Erha: "I used to keep the promise."

Yan Yi: "I've used cookies before."

"..."

Teammate: "Play well and don't talk bad words!"

Rong Mo shook her head helplessly and smiled, then asked Xia Ran:

"Brother Hao, needless to say, it must be Guan Yu. How about you, what do you want to use for the cookie?"

Before Xia Ran could answer, Yan Yi first suggested to him:

"Since the playoffs, you have been using support mid laners. It's the last one. Let's play a carry."

Erha also said: "That's right, the last one will let you enjoy the treatment of the team favorite."

"In that case... I have an immature suggestion."

Xia Ran thought for a while, but still brought it up: "I want to use Diao Chan."

At first, he didn't have any obsession with any hero, until he met Yan Yi, he always remembered the Diao Chan and Hua Mulan they used in their first solo.

Moreover, "Although Diao Chan is no longer a top-level stab in this version, it is still unsolvable if it develops to the middle and late stages, and I usually study it. As long as the lineup is matched with heroes with group control capabilities, Diao Chan's output environment is still good. of."

When Rong Mo thought about it, she immediately understood what he meant:

"Okay, I've decided on a lineup, and I'll choose Diao Chan later."

So, when TL locked on Diaochan, there was another uproar at the scene.

Commentary: "TL has come to a crucial match point, and actually brought out another hero of faith, Diao Chan?!"

"And the weakening of this version of the CD shoe is a fatal blow to Diaochan. TL is taking on the version today. Whether this challenge is worthwhile depends on the result of the game."

Compared with Luna in the previous round, REO will fight to the end in this round. Not only does he control Diao Chan's blue, but Nakanosuke seems to live in the middle lane. Discuss economy on the tip of the knife.

Even though Brother Hao and even Yan Yi took on the job of scouting the field of vision, Xia Ran was caught and killed twice 8 minutes ago. Yi helped him fight wild monsters to supplement the economy.

However, due to being too targeted at him, the two sides developed more comfortably. Erha and Lao Sun established an advantage online, which attracted the attention of the other side, and Xia Ran was able to relax a little bit.

Unknowingly, the rhythm of both sides slowed down. Due to the lineup, they entered the middle of the transition, and neither dared to act rashly.

However, Xia Ran still keenly conceived of a good time to start a group——

"My equipment is still a little short, but if I operate it properly, there should be an advantage. Let's give it a try?"

"can."

"Okay, I expect they will come to fight against the blue again. We will start a team in the wild area. At that time, Guan Yu and Guiguzi will cooperate with me. After you control the people together, I will easily deal AOE damage."

Erha, Brother Hao: "No problem."

Sure enough, as he guessed, after his own blue buff was refreshed, the opponent came back against blue again.

Xia Ran was not in a hurry to enter the arena. After the other four were ready to take their positions, he stuck in the triangle and took the lead to open up.

Xia Ran first took down the blue buff in detail in the crowd, and then played a wave of smooth, steady and ruthless operations, repeatedly dodging a few key skills, which can be described as "passing through thousands of flowers, not a single leaf touches the body", Using AOE damage to play a wave of wonderful counterattacks, finally chased back the economy and kills.

Ever since, this wave of operations has attracted praise from the commentator:

"One generation of gods, one generation of Diao Chan teaches how to be a man!"

After this wave, TL regained the field economy a little bit, and wanted to fight back, but Yu Weiding and Zhang Yiyan joined forces to block the way.

REO seems to be back to form only now, and TL's lineup has also entered a strong period. Now the two sides have entered a long period of tension like the last game of the regular season last time. You come and go, and there is no winner for the time being burden.

And the script seems to have entered the track of the last game——

The stalemate between the two sides lasted for four to ten minutes, and everyone had already installed Liushen. TL first occupied the view of the river, and the three lines of troops vowed to end the game.

And REO stayed behind the crystal, waiting for TL to show his flaws first.

TL pressed on every step, REO responded carefully, the two sides had no choice but to fight, Guan Yu of Brother Hao pushed the two out of the crystal first, TL rushed forward, but did not see the double C on the opposite side desperately outputting, waiting for Xia Tian When Ran discovered something was wrong, the team was almost full of residual blood.

Yan Yi made a prompt decision:

"We hold them back and consume them. Cookie, you withdraw the crystal alone. If they push back the crystal later, you still have a chance to hold it."

"it is good!"

When Xia Ran knew that she was not a mother-in-law, she immediately listened to the command and withdrew the crystal to make up the state. Sure enough, the other four of TL couldn't resist and were all killed, but they managed to lower the blood line on the opposite side.

At this time, there are three people left in REO, and only one person left in TL, Xia Ran...

Last time, REO defended the crystal with double C, two-on-five, and now he is the only one...

The three of REO approached with a cannon carriage, he took a deep breath, and calmly launched a big move, clearing the line of troops first with a clear goal;

Jumping spiritually in the magic circle of the ultimate move, he killed one person to the limit, and the two opponents were also left with blood, and the price was to use up a resurrection armor.

Next, he insisted on killing another one with his extreme reaction and inhuman hand speed. Now he and Yu are the only ones left on the battlefield;

It can be said that it is an imperial city duel between two top mid laners in the league...

In the end, after dodging Zhuge Liang's skill with the second skill and attacking with the first skill, only Xia Ran was left under the TL crystal!

hold on!

But in the next second, teammates shouted like an explosion in the headset:

"Zhuge Liang is resurrected!"

"Be careful of Zhuge Liang's bigness!"

At this time, he had lost his resurrection armor, golden body and famous sword. The moment he saw Zhuge Liang zooming in, he slid his fingertips towards the purification skill...

"Diao Chan is still alive!"

"Zhuge is dead! Biscuit actually used purification to undo Zhuge's big move!"

"Cookies save the world! There is a chance to push the crystal!"

The wave of operations just now had exhausted all his energy, and at this moment there was only one voice in his head:

Push Tower……

Don't worry about anything, just push the tower...

Because his teammates have already entrusted their victory and faith to him...

"Congratulations to TL! Congratulations to TL for winning the trophy again!"

"TL in the qualifiers told us what is rebirth, TL in the regular season told us what is amazing, in the playoffs and even today's finals, TL told us what is the return of faith!"

"TL! TL! TL!"

Amidst the excited shouts from the commentary and the fans, Xia Ran took off his earphones, he was dazed, and walked up to Yan Yi, looking like he was about to fall down.

Yan Yi hurriedly hugged him and let him lean into his arms. Only then did he realize that Xia Ran's entire back was wet with sweat...

He was so distressed, he hugged Xia Ran tightly in his arms, and helped him brush away the sweat-drenched hair on his forehead:

"If I knew this earlier, you wouldn't be allowed to choose Diao Chan in the last round."

After listening to Xia Ran, he finally regained some strength, raised his head from his arms, and looked like a small animal wet by water:

"I thought I couldn't keep it, but I did it."

Yan Yi looked into his dark eyes, and the words were stuck in his throat for a while, and he stroked the back of his head gently.

Xia Ran knew that he felt sorry for himself, so he took the initiative to say:

"Kiss me so I won't be tired."

Then, on the six huge display screens——

Yan Yi held Xia Ran's profile, and gently pressed a kiss on the other's thin lips...

After the kiss was over, the two of them pressed their foreheads together as if no one was there.

"Daibing, you forgot to answer a question for me last time."

"You said."

"I will give you all the blue buffs in the future, and your life will be mine, okay?"

The corner of Xia Ran's mouth curved like a crescent moon: "It's this trick again..."

Yan Yi is always like this, it seems that he has a lot to discuss, but in fact he is tricking him into agreeing.

However, "OK."

Being tricked into becoming Yan Yi's accomplice, he felt very happy.
