After the training this morning, Yaosen saw Coach Gou and Manager Guo standing outside the training room talking about something. Through a glass door, Yaosen vaguely heard the words "Cobra" said by Coach Gou.
Talking about the cobra in the e-sports base can never be talking about the animal world, and due to some personal reasons, Yao Sen's heart suddenly became alarm bells.
After Coach Gou and Manager Guo finished talking, Yaosen slowly came out and asked: "Coach, what did you talk to the manager just now?"
Coach Gou: "Cobra will come to the training base in Yokogawa next week for training and invite us to play a friendly game. The sponsor sponsored Yokoshi's stadium."
There are indeed many formal e-sports venues in S City, and the Yokoishi Stadium is one of the larger ones. A small friendly match even rented the Yokoshin arena, and the sponsors paid for it. Yaosen felt that the Cobra shot was too generous.
After Coach Gou told the rest of the team about the incident, everyone's reaction was also extremely surprised.
Titans have not played friendly matches before, but after all, there is the word "friendship" in front of the friendly matches. It is not comparable to a formal game. Most of the time, you can find a training room to play. Unlike Cobra, who specially sent them an invitation letter for the Yokoishi Arena, it is said that they also invited a professional commentary and sold internal tickets.
"Is this a friendly match or a club advertisement?" Wang Yuxi looked slightly dissatisfied.
Cobra is indeed a very commercial club. Since Lu Kaizhi became their team member and let the club taste the sweetness of the club, sponsors have been endless. Although it is said that after Lu Kaizhi retired, Cobra's strength was not as good as before, but the foundation he should have is still there.
Coach Gou waved his hand and said: "No matter what these are, you just have to play hard. This Saturday morning, the five of you will go to Lao Guo, and I won't be involved in a friendly match."
Bai Yue: "They are looking for us to play a friendly match at this time? Want to feel our strength?"
Coach Gou: "Let them touch if you touch the strength."
The Cobra is one of the top teams in the domestic e-sports circle, and Titans is a strong team that can be ranked in the world. As soon as the news of the friendly match came out, the ticket price of the Yokoishi Esports Stadium was immediately fired.
On the night the official news was released, Yao Sen received news from Shao Han.
Shao Han: Are you going to play a friendly match with Cobra
Yao Sen: Yes, at ten o'clock on Saturday morning, would you like to come here? The manager gave me a few tickets
Shao Han: Yes
Seeing Shao Han categorically promised, Yaosen thought about it when he was happy, thinking of Shen You, and suddenly hoped that Shao Han would not come. He would rather rarely see Shao Han for a few hours than create a chance for him to meet Shen You.
However, if the words spilled out, how can the Asian champion not be creditworthy, Yaosen feels that he is better off staying with Shao Han.
Yaosen: You should just take a car with us that day. I'll wait for you downstairs at 8:30
Shao Han: OK
On Saturday morning, the club arranged a commercial vehicle for the Yaosen people to take them to the Yokogawa Stadium. It was the first time that Zhou Ziyu wore a team uniform and followed the team to participate in a game. Although it was not a formal game, or maybe he didn't have the right to play at all, it was enough to make him happy for several days.
Everyone was quite familiar with Shao Han, who was on the same road. Yaosen, who usually went to the car and went to sleep with the team, said a lot this time.
Zhou Ziyu sat behind the two chatting. Since the last Yaosen’s birthday, Zhou Ziyu had an inexplicable awe for Noah, the deputy captain, and made him want to stand up and bow before shouting "Sister-in-law." Good impulse.
When the group arrived at the Hengshi stadium, they saw a long line waiting for the ticket check at the gate of the stadium. Team posters were posted around the stadium, and the LED screen was also the details of the friendly match.
Most of the people who can get tickets for the friendly match are the iron fans of the two teams. In order to avoid causing commotion, they went directly in through the side door of the arena. Shao Han originally wanted to line up obediently to check the tickets, but Yaosen was directly counted as a team member pulling away.
There was still more than half an hour before the game started, and a few people sat and waited in the players' lounge. With the heating on in the lounge, Shao Han felt a little hot in a short while. He turned his head and saw Yao Sen rolled up the sleeves of his team uniform. His exposed wrists and arms were slender, reflecting the faint blue blood vessels.
Yaosen's hands are also beautiful, with distinct joints, which are particularly slender and charming when placed on the mouse.
Staring at one of the most valuable players in the e-sports circle, Shao Han's heart began to be unconstrained. He heard that the top e-sports players in the world have given him a large amount of insurance... He is really curious about the Titans club. How much insurance did you buy for Yao Sen's hands
Shao Han felt a little embarrassed because of his own thoughts, looked up at the time, got up and planned to go to the bathroom.
After going to the bathroom, Shao Han walked in the direction of the Titans lounge. He just turned the corner of the corridor, but almost hit the arms of a boy in a silver-white team uniform.
Shao Han stepped back and raised his head to apologize: "Excuse me... Shen You?"
Shen You obviously did not expect to meet Shao Han here, stared at him in surprise for a few seconds, and then smiled slightly: "Shao Han, are you here to watch the game?"
Seeing Shen You, Shao Han beat a drum slightly in his heart, and he hesitated to answer: "Yeah."
"If you want to watch the game, say it earlier, I don't know who to give so many votes."
If it is just a little bit of careful thinking about not wanting to meet Shen You, then Shao Han really does not want to mention Yaosen in front of him, and replied vaguely: "It's okay."
"But shouldn't you be able to enter the player lounge if you have a ticket for the audience?" Shen You asked, "You are with..."
A pair of arms suddenly fell on Shen You's shoulders from behind, and the owner of the arms smiled generously: "Hello, it's been a long time."
Shao Han looked up at Shen You's back, his expression suddenly stiff.
Yaosen smiled and looked at Shen You, and patted him on the shoulder quite well for the brothers. Shen You was taken aback for a moment, his expression was slightly weird: "... Captain Yaosen."
"Just call my name. We've seen it so many times." Yaosen lowered his arm. "It's a pity that I didn't play with you in the domestic match. Thank you for inviting us to play a friendly match."
Although the greetings were very enthusiastic, the following greetings sounded like unintentional thanks between the teams, which made Shen You not know what attitude to deal with the captain of Titans for a while.
Shen You: "No thanks, it's our honor."
"You're polite, see you in twenty minutes." Yaosen smiled lightly and looked up at Shao Han, "I and Shao Han are leaving first."
Hearing Yaosen calling himself, Shao Han somehow walked towards him subconsciously. Shao Han turned around and said goodbye to Shen You softly, and left with Yaosen.
Shao Han didn't know, but Shen You could see clearly behind him, Yaosen subconsciously raised his hand to ring Shao Han's midfielder. Although he didn't directly touch his body, the falsely raised arms clearly protected Shao Han, as if he were to prevent him from touching people in the corridor.
Shen You was stunned, and suddenly understood something vaguely in his heart.
After so many years, the incident has long since been let go. He feels more guilty for Shao Han than his previous feelings, and he also thought of using friends to compensate for those regrets. But now it seems that he does not have this opportunity, and it is no longer possible for people who crossed that line to talk about friendship.
Shen You knew in his heart that although he still felt stunned when he saw Shao Han, he would not feel that his relationship with Shao Han could be repaired, let alone intervene in Shao Han's feelings.
Shen You looked back at the direction the two were leaving, then turned and left in silence.
Yaosen was beating a drum in his heart, and when he thought he went out to the vending machine to buy a bottle of water, he saw Shao Han and Shen You staying together. Although he knew that Shao Han didn’t mean that to Shen You, he still felt a little bit in his heart. It's stuffy, and it's stuffed with vinegar.
"The game is about to start. You should be in the arena, right?" Shao Han said, "Then I will go to the auditorium first."
"Um."
When he left, Shao Han was still a little puzzled, when did Yaosen and Shen You already have a relationship with Shen You at will
Shao Han's position is in the third row of the audience with the best view, and there is no one around him. He just sat down for less than three minutes before the players entered the field.
Shao Han was taken aback by the cheers that broke out behind him. He listened carefully, and many people yelled at Yaosen's name. Shao Han looked up and saw Yao Sen standing in front of the team first on stage. His black team uniform set him confidently and calmly against the slightly dazzling colored lights of the stadium.
After Yaosen and the captain of Cobra shook hands, they raised their eyes to look at Shen You who was standing in the third position, retracted his gaze, and walked back to his position on the left side of the field.
After the four of them were seated, Wang Yuxi asked Yaosen, "Yaosen, are there any tactics?"
Yaosen put on his headphones and replied: "Clean up number three first."
"no problem."
This friendly match adopted a simple three-round decisive system. The Titans won in the first round, and Shen You also clearly felt the concentration of the opponent's team on his own firepower.
Whether it was because Yao Sen saw his pivotal position in the entire team, or because of his unspeakable personal hatred, this pot Shen You was back.
Moreover, without seeing the enemy's ID, Titans players can recognize themselves through maneuvering and marching positions so quickly. Shen You feels that he is probably one of their main targets.
All of a sudden, Shen You's heart was mixed.
Generally, the output and auxiliary bits are easier to distinguish, but it is difficult to distinguish between two outputs and two auxiliary bits. For the sake of fairness, most games will cover the player ID with random numbers, and the original ID will only appear after the kill, which undoubtedly greatly increases the difficulty of the game.
In the second round, the Titans and Cobra got closer, but the Titans still won. It stands to reason that the game can be over here, but after all, friendship is the first, and the third round is still played.
There was an intermission before the start of the third round. Everyone returned to the players' lounge. Manager Guo suddenly walked in and said, "Cobra has changed to the bench."
Yaosen looked up in a little surprise: "Who did you replace?"
"Number three."
"Number three?" Wang Yuxi said surprised. "Isn't the number three their core team member? Is this a broken tank?"
"It's just a friendly match, there's no need to be so serious." Bai Yue said thoughtfully, "and I always think it's too easy for us to win. With the pissiness of cobra, they mostly hide their strength."
Yaosen thought for a moment, and finally didn't matter: "They all changed the bench, let's change too, just let our family come on the bench, Ziyu, come."
Zhou Ziyu on the side shuddered and stood up immediately, his cheeks flushed with excitement.
Yaosen: "Get ready, you will be on the next round."
Zhou Ziyu's eyes were bright, and he replied in a loud voice: "Okay!"
Bai Yue: "Okay, change me, Ziyu, let me tell you..."
Yaosen interrupted: "Bai Yue, keep it and change me."
