Chapter 622 Qijiang's Test

After the play-in round on September 30, all the teams in the group stage were determined.

After a meaningless group draw, the grouping of the S10 group stage was completed.

Group A: G2, SN, MCX, TL

Group B: KT, JDG, RGE, PSG

Group C: TSM, FNC, GEN·G, LGD

Group D: TES, DWG, FLY, UOL

Except for LGD's failure to avoid the death group, the teams that came up in the play-in round did not seem to have much impact on the situation, and TL might cause some trouble to G2 and SN.

Hmm~~~~ But thinking of the performance of Lao Gandie and MAD in the play-in round, everyone doubted the strength of the wild card.

Will this year's wild card be particularly strong?

Otherwise, it doesn't make sense for LGD and MAD to play like that.

It seems that everyone is making progress.

Although the time of isolation in the hotel was a bit boring, Lin Cheng also met a lot of professional players besides training RANK.

In addition to Wanwan's separate column, his friend list is also filled with professional players' IDs, including players from LPL and European and American regions.

As long as they have met in the game, Lin Cheng will not refuse to add them as friends.

It's just to make good friends.

Unlike the Korean server account, Lin Cheng would find it troublesome to add too many friends. Anyway, this super account will only be used for a period of time, and Riot will recycle it after a while.

Of course, there are also some people that make Lin Cheng feel very entangled.

For example, the former professional player Zzitai.

Brother Zzitai was beaten up by Lin Cheng in the Canyon of Heroes. After becoming a friend, he was very enthusiastic and often chatted with Lin Cheng, praising Lin Cheng's operation.

Lin Cheng was very happy to share this with Wanwan.

After all, he is an IG legend!

Although he was expelled from the team by fans because he played "Unforgettable Tonight" after IG lost the game in the e-sports Spring Festival Gala, Lin Cheng still felt a little proud that he impressed a former professional player with his operation.

However, Wanwan joked: A few days ago, Zzitai had already dated UOL's handsome AD player offline, and even fed him food intimately. Brother Cheng, remember to protect yourself after the quarantine is over.

Although Wanwan was joking, Lin Cheng still broke out in a cold sweat.

Brother Cheng is so handsome! What if he is targeted?

Although Zzitai has a girlfriend, this guy is really gay, and he seems to like women's clothing.

Hmm~~~ Zzitai invited me to his house last time, I must refuse next time.

October 1st, National Day.

Just as everyone was looking forward to the group stage in three days, Lin Cheng and Kuro left the hotel.

The quarantine was over, and they were free to come and go.

The two took a car to the Bund.

After two weeks of quarantine, people were almost rusty. Kuro kept chattering along the way. Lin Cheng had never realized that this guy could be so chatty before.

There were many people on the Bund during the National Day, and the two did not have time to look around the restaurant carefully, so they found a cafe next to it.

One person had been waiting for a long time.

The hot guy sat by the window, his carefully permed hair was over his eyebrows, he was wearing a black T-shirt, holding a cup of coffee, and staring out the window with dead fish eyes.

7777777

That's right! Today is the day when Lin Cheng and Mr. Mingkai meet offline.

During the quarantine period, Lin Cheng also chatted with the factory director several times. Mingkai enthusiastically expressed that he would do his best to be a good host after Lin Cheng's quarantine was over.

Lin Cheng agreed to Qijiang's application for a face-to-face meeting, but the meeting base was changed.

Because Qijiang proposed to take Lin Cheng to visit EDG's base in Shanghai at the beginning, Lin Cheng always felt that he had ulterior motives.

He went to the EDG base before the world game started. Those who didn't know thought that Cheng Ge was going to rebel.

"Lin Cheng! Here, here!"

Lin Cheng, the handsome guy, was recognized at a glance, and Mr. Mingkai stood up and waved.

"Factory director! I'm your fan!"

After this, Mr. Mingkai put his hand down.

Why does this guy still talk like this offline?

Qijiang and Kuro also knew each other, and after the three of them greeted each other, they sat down.

Lin Cheng first took out his phone and took a photo with the two of them and posted it to his Instagram, with the caption:

This may be the last status I post before I win the world championship. Can you send me a few more 7s?

As soon as Lin Cheng's status was posted, he immediately received countless 777s, and various Chinese comments, such as "Seven bless you".

The three of them chatted for a while in the cafe.

The topics they talked about were not very nutritious, and then the factory manager took the two of them on a tour of the Bund and hosted a meal.

Everything was the same as a normal meeting of friends.

During the meal, Qijiang jokingly asked Lin Cheng: "Is it true that you said you would join me next year?"

Lin Cheng thought about it, "I hadn't joined KT at that time... If there is a chance in the future, I will consider joining you."

After a pause, Lin Cheng said again: "But you didn't even make it to the world championship with EDG, and I guess you won't be able to sit in the position of EDG coach for long?"

Factory Manager: "..."

Death Stare activated.

This kid is really annoying!

Lin Cheng didn’t know if Mingkai was testing his attitude or joking, but he wouldn’t express any intention of transferring before the World Championship started.

Although Lin Cheng has a very eccentric personality, he actually does things in a measured way.

This is also the reason why he refused to visit the EDG base alone.

Mingkai thought for a while: "You don't have to be my teammate, you can be my teammate."

Lin Cheng was stunned and looked at Mr. Mingkai again and again, "Do you still want to give?"

"No?" Qijiang asked back.

"Don't joke."

Lin Cheng waved his hand, "You kicked away half of your fans at the beginning, and if you come back and continue to play, you might lose the other half of your fans."

Factory Manager: "·····"

"Haha! Just kidding! Let's eat! I'll treat you next time you go to Chengdu."

Lin Cheng called Kuro and buried his head in eating.

After saying goodbye to the factory manager, on the way back, Kuro looked at the tall buildings outside the car window and suddenly said, "Lin Cheng."

"Huh?"

"Will you leave KT next year?"

"Why do you say that?"

"I don't know, I just asked, maybe you will be the only one left in KT next year... or maybe there will be nothing left."

"I don't know either. My contract ends this year. How can I tell you clearly if you ask me about next year?"

Kuro thought for a while, "If there is a more suitable opportunity, don't hesitate."

"What?"

Lin Cheng was stunned. Was Kuro persuading him to leave?

Kuro lowered his head, "The career of a professional player is very short, so short that it is beyond your imagination. You don't even know if you will still be on the court in two years... So, think more about yourself. This year is your best chance to get a big contract."

"Others may not be, but my career will be very long."

After a pause, Lin Cheng continued: "And the future is not important. What is important is that we will definitely win the championship this year. I said I would send you off peacefully."

"Can you change the adjective? I am just retiring, not dying."

Kuro was powerless to complain about Lin Cheng's words.

Lin Cheng smiled and turned his head to look out the window.

Who can say what will happen next?

Inexplicably, Lin Cheng remembered the scene before boarding the plane to Shanghai.

Several KT fans were waiting outside the bus, wearing Lin Cheng's team uniforms and holding cheering boards.

Our KT is invincible.

Cheng, lead KT to the top of the world.

Our king, go to Shanghai to be crowned.
