The King's Return

After the game, Qin Mo and Nie Yuzhu walked to the middle of the big stage and shook hands friendly.

For Nie Yuzhu, Qin Mo didn't have much contact and understanding before, but today's game made Qin Mo clearly realize the strength of a veteran player—Nie Yuzhu's style of play is indeed not as good as many young players. Sharp, but Taishan collapsed in front of the calm and calm, and the awareness of studying tactics according to different opponents, is the most terrifying part of this captain.

He is worthy of the title of "Old Zhuge", even if his own strength is weaker than his opponent, he can still turn defeat into victory with powerful tactical arrangements.

The next match will be between Xiao Han and Chen Jiang.

After Qin Mo returned to the backstage, Xiao Han was about to appear on the stage. The two looked at each other. Qin Mo smiled and said, "Come on."

Xiao Han stood up and hugged him, whispering in his ear, "See you in the final."

Simple three words, but revealing extremely strong self-confidence - he will meet Qin Mo in the final, which shows that he must be sure to win Chen Jiang in today's competition!

***

At the commentary stand, after Qin Ye finished praising Qin Mo endlessly, Ye Chao finally brought the topic to the next match.

"The next semi-final will be Xiao Han and Chen Jiang." Ye Chao said, "First, let me introduce Chen Jiang. He is Xue Ke's personal apprentice. Xue Ke, Ye Shen should be very familiar with it, right?"

"Well, the apprentice brought out by Lun Shen and Xiao Huang is the strongest in the Long Whip Style." Qin Ye said.

"Chen Jiang inherited Master's strong field control style of play. His weapon is called 'Green Snake', which is a long green whip. This weapon has the negative effect of poisoning, and the damage is very high." Ye Chao said, "He The record of this individual competition, the group stage was all won, the top 2 and the top 1 were all [-]:[-], this is because he is easy to be targeted on the away map, such as the map with dense trees, and the long whip controls the field If you are affected, it will not be easy to fight."

"The advantages and disadvantages of the long whip style are indeed more obvious." Liang Ru echoed.

"Well, let me introduce Xiao Han next." Ye Chao followed up, "The audience who are familiar with e-sports should know him. He is the disciple of the great player Li Cangyu. There are few foreign masters, and the current state is also at its peak."

"I remember that he almost won all the individual competitions this year, and only lost one game to Su Cheng in the group stage?" Liang Ru said.

“没错，肖寒在小组赛打宋长东、周炎冰全是2:0；十六强赛对徐浪2:0，八强赛对袁曦2:0，唯独一场2:1是对上苏程，在苏程的主场图输了一局。”叶超道。

"Su Cheng?" Qin Ye read the team list and profile sent to him by the league before he became a guest commentator. He remembered that Su Cheng was a private expert who entered the professional league with the self-built "Jade House Spring Dawn Team". It is said that his personal level is very good. powerful.However, Xiao Han is a first-class professional player who has participated in many world competitions. He has rich experience in competitions. No matter how strong Su Cheng is, he will not be able to defeat Xiao Han single-handedly.

"What happened to the game that Xiao Han lost?" Anyway, there were still ten minutes before the start of the game, so Qin Ye chatted with Ye Chao out of curiosity.

"Su Cheng chose a swamp-type map, and took advantage of the long attack distance to block Xiao Han." Ye Chao briefly introduced.

"..." The more Qin Ye thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. The card position attrition battle is a tactic used by long-range spell players when they face melee players. Xiao Han has played games for so many years, and he has seen this kind of map and tactic at least a hundred times. , it doesn't make sense to be tricked by Su Cheng.Perhaps, Su Cheng is not as simple as it is written in the information - could it be that there is an expert behind him?

Sensing that Qin Ye was thinking seriously, Ye Chao couldn't help laughing and said, "What? Does Ye Shen seem to be very interested in Su Cheng?"

Qin Ye said: "It's not easy to win Xiao Han, even just one round. Who is his master?"

Although this sentence did not directly praise Xiao Han, it also gave Xiao Han a very objective and high evaluation from the side. After all, Xiao Han is a world-class player who is in his peak state. From Qin Ye's point of view, the current unrivaled alliance is only a matter of light theory. At the heads-up level, Xiao Han should be able to sweep the audience—except for Qin Mo, of course.

Ye Chao heard Qin Ye's question and turned to Liang Ru: "I remember that both Su Cheng and Xie Changming are students of the music department?"

Liang Ru nodded: "Well, it is said that Su Cheng learned to play the guzheng, and Xie Changming learned the flute. They are brothers in reality, from a school in Harbin. But there seems to be no master in the game."

Qin Ye's eyes lit up: "Harbin? Which school?"

When Liang Ru mentioned the name of a school, Qin Ye's heart immediately became clear, and he said with a light smile, "Sure enough, there are experts behind the scenes to give advice."

Liang Ru wondered: "Does Su Cheng really have a master?"

Qin Ye said: "The school in Harbin has an art teacher who was once a top player in the e-sports world. I don't think this should be a coincidence."

This sentence meant something, and many veteran fans in the e-sports circle immediately guessed who Qin Ye was talking about.

Qin Mo couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this - what uncle said, the person who is a teacher in Harbin is Lan Weiran? !

At the beginning of this year, Qin Mo had the honor to meet this master at the annual meeting of the Dragon Yin Club. He is the top tactical master in the league. At that time, the "Three Gods of Dragon Yin" Liu Chuan, Qin Ye and Lan Weiran swept the alliance together and achieved a legend. , After retiring, Lan Weiran returned to school to be an art teacher. It is said that in addition to playing games well, he also draws top-notch paintings. The emblem at the entrance of the Dragon Yin Club was painted by himself.

The place where he works now happens to be a certain art school in Harbin. Since both Su Cheng and Xie Changming are from that school, as Qin Ye said, it shouldn't be a coincidence.

However, Lan Weiran has always been famous for being "lazy", he doesn't even bother to stand up when he can lie down.At the club's annual meeting, he sat there lazily, refusing to move, and asked the newcomers to help him get food. Qin Mo still remembers that scene vividly.

How could such a lazy person accept apprentices when he has nothing to do?

Ye Chao, who has been in the e-sports circle for many years, obviously guessed who Qin Ye was talking about, and asked in confusion, "Silan? Will he accept apprentices?"

Qin Ye said, "Based on his temper, he probably won't, but not necessarily his apprentice."

Lan Weiran once took in an apprentice, and what Qin Ye said meant that Su Cheng was probably Lan Weiran's apprentice.

Ye Chao said in surprise: "So, behind the Yulou Chunxiao team is the Luohuaci Club?"

Qin Ye said bluntly: "The way of playing the piano and flute ensemble does have a very familiar style of literary youth."

Luohuaci, Longyin, and Seven Star Grass were all equally famous teams back then. The captain of Luohuaci was Lan Weiran's apprentice. He was a literary young man who could write poems and lyrics. Looking carefully, Su Cheng had an outstanding talent in music. , I play the guzheng very well, I have also written lyrics and composed music, and the songs I wrote are quite famous-this style of painting is so similar!

Su Cheng, who was sitting in the backstage lounge, couldn't help but touched his chin with a smile when he heard this, took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message: "I didn't expect Ye Shen to be so powerful, and he directly guessed the identity of Master."

The other party returned a smiling expression, and said in a gentle tone: "There are so many masters in the Independence Alliance at present, it is indeed very sensible for you to act in a low-key manner without being a master. However, since Qin Ye has already guessed your origin , you don’t need to hide it anymore. If the reporter asks, you can just say that I am your master.”

"Ok."

"You don't have much experience in competitions. It is already very good to be able to enter the top [-] in this individual competition. I will leave Beijing tomorrow, and the future competitions will depend on you."

"Understood, thank you Master for your guidance [smile]"

The other party responded with a pat on the shoulder: "I look forward to your and Xiao Xie's performance in the doubles competition."

Su Cheng said: "Master, don't worry, the double competition of the piano and flute ensemble is our strongest one."

***

Qin Mo happened to be sitting behind Su Cheng, and when he heard the news from Qin Ye, he couldn't help but said, "Captain Su, you're really hiding something."

Su Cheng turned around, smiled and said, "No way, the law of the jungle."

If it wasn't for Qin Ye who came to be the guest commentator and guessed Su Cheng's background by accident, perhaps no one would have known until the end that Su Cheng was actually backed by the Luohuaci Club.

Su Cheng was right: the law of the jungle.

There are so many masters in the Dope Alliance, and many disciples and grandchildren of senior great masters are active in the field of new events. It is like a jungle. In order to compete for the territory, all kinds of beasts emerge in endlessly. Su Cheng's strength far exceeds many people's expectations, but he is very smart He deliberately chose to hide his fangs, shuttled through the jungle very low-key, smiled, friendly, and had a good relationship with the captains of each team...

His identity as a "civilian team" conceals his true background. He looks smiling and seems to have no competitiveness, which is easy to be overlooked, but in fact he is the most dangerous beast in the jungle.

The game where he beat Xiao Han in the group match, now that he thinks about it carefully, it reveals a fine tactical thinking everywhere.

It is one aspect to have expert guidance behind him, but Su Cheng's strong logical reasoning ability and calm and delicate style of play are the most worthy of attention.
