Regarding the old friend's straight-to-the-point inquiry, Lin Feng did not hide it at all, and nodded seriously and typed in reply:
"Um."
This is an acknowledgment.
On the other side of the chat window, Jiyue Shuangye was slightly shocked.
In fact, Lin Feng didn't need to take the initiative to admit it, he was able to guess that, through a simple game or two with Lin Feng tonight to open the black double row, many details could be seen at a glance.
Tonight's Lin Feng was too good and too perfect in terms of manipulation, reaction, hand speed and state of consciousness.
This cannot be easily explained with a "he's maple" reason.
Because even a former professional player has left the professional e-sports arena for many years, his own strength will be greatly reduced with the passage of time, and it will no longer be at the peak level of the year.
Regarding this point, September Shuangye himself has a personal experience:
After a few years of anchoring career, even if he is still ranked for at least six hours a day, his reaction speed and state of consciousness are far from what he used to be - after all, he is still living too much now. at ease.
Professional e-sports is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.
And the state that Lin Feng showed tonight is definitely not something that a former professional player who has retired for many years can have.
There is only one explanation for this -
Even during the period of retirement, he still maintained a sufficiently high-intensity training, and always kept his reaction speed and state awareness above the professional level.
Or, through high-intensity training and hard work, you can get back to the state of the year little by little.
Either way, it means a lot of hard work and hard work.
It means unimaginable hardships and sweat.
September Shuangye's thoughts were a little dazed. He also had such experiences and years. During the s2 and s3 seasons, he was in the Amakusa team in order to challenge the lpl league championship and the world s league. , is also so desperate to train every day, single-mindedly for only one goal.
Although hard.
Every day was very fulfilling.
…
With his thoughts back, September Frostleaf typed in the chat window and replied:
"Even you are coming back."
"Does anyone else in the circle know now?"
Lin Feng shook his head and typed back:
"Not much, just a few for now."
Jiuyue Shuangye nodded in understanding: "Yes, otherwise, as soon as this kind of news came out, the entire national service should have been alerted-"
This sentiment is definitely not without reason.
You know, even Shi Hang, who returned to the national service professional e-sports circle a while ago, was able to set off an exclamation in the national service; then if the return was the maple that was recognized as the strongest mid laner in the national service s1 season, it was that one The existence of being able to compete with f in the top professional arena in the S1 world is on a par with the five games, and the entire national service must be thoroughly sensational.
Lin Feng smiled and didn't say much about the emotion of September Shuangye.
The conversation between the two fell silent for a moment.
After a long while, September Frostleaf turned around as if to find a topic and said:
"You're in really good shape right now—"
"In the previous game, Wei En played too 6."
The words carried undisguised admiration and praise for Lin Feng.
After all, Wei En, who saved the world with five kills, can perform like a god, even many professional ADC players may not be able to easily do it, let alone a former professional player who has retired for many years.
But Lin Feng shook his head and typed back:
"nothing."
"You were stronger back then."
It seems that this is just a very ordinary polite courtesy, but from Lin Feng's mouth, the tone is very serious.
So September Frostleaf fell silent.
After a long while, a message came from the other side of the chat window:
"It's all in the past."
In a word, in a flat and indifferent tone, it seems to be forcibly suppressing some emotions as if to cover up.
Lin Feng smiled when he saw it:
"Yeah, it's over."
"But up to now, there are still many, many people who remember you back then, don't they?"
September Frost Leaf was silent again.
Looking at the chat window where there was no reply for a long time, Lin Feng also did not continue to type and say anything, and looked out of the window across the computer screen.
then.
…
Since the s1 season, the national service professional e-sports circle has developed and emerged little by little, and there have been two positions that have been constantly emerging top professional players with outstanding talent and strength.
One is the mid lane position.
The other is the adc bit.
In the latter position, from the s1 season to the current s6 season, the names that can be remembered by players in the national server are not too few, but not too many, but all professional e-sports that stand out in the ADC position Hands, all can write a rich and colorful stroke in the history of the national server game.
The "silent words" of the s1 season.
"September Frost Leaves" for the s2-s3 season.
"Song of the Wild Snow Night" in the s4-s5 season.
three people.
The three-term strongest adc player in the national service.
For five seasons before and after, it was these three people who held up the highest level of adc position in the national service lol professional e-sports circle, and represented the strongest state of the national service professional ADC players, even if they were placed in the world professional e-sports arena It is a well-deserved world-class ADC.
In fact, the current ADC player of the God-Hand of God team, "Huangxue Yege", is the newest person among the three, and is also slightly inferior to the first two in terms of strength and record.
"Mo Yan" is Lin Feng's former teammate Amo.
It was one of the top three ADCs in the world that year, and one of the five strongest national service teams that had reached the finals of the World S-League with Lin Feng and others.
In the later s2 and s3 seasons, although it was said that the real top-level ADC players in the world professional e-sports circle at that time were not as many as in the s1 season, but as one of the strongest ADC players in the national service, September Shuangye was able to play in At that time, it was recognized as the strongest ADC in the world, an honor that neither his predecessor nor successor ever won.
That is true glory.
It doesn't mean that "the past" can really be "the past".
After a long silence, Lin Feng sent another message in the chat window:
"I didn't expect you to retire so early back then."
In fact, as soon as September Frost Ye's retirement announcement came out, the national uniform was shocked. Almost everyone could not have imagined that Ye Shen, who was still at the peak of his career at the time, would make such a choice.
But at this moment, such a sentence from Lin Feng's mouth has more weight.
September Frost Ye was silent, and replied after a while:
"After two seasons, it's almost there."
Lin Feng saw that his eyebrows were raised a little bit, and he typed and asked:
"almost?"
"What is almost?"
The ultimate dream of any professional e-sports player will always be one, standing on the stage of the championship of the World S-League and winning the trophy that symbolizes the highest honor of the League of Legends' highest-profile event.
So there is no such ambiguity as "almost".
Only get it, or not get it.
There is another option -
It's called "giving up".
After the two questioning messages were sent, Lin Feng suddenly felt a little tired again, because he was tired.
He understands that he does not have any qualifications or position to question and accuse his old friend.
Everyone has the right to make their own choices.
It's just that September Frostleaf chose a path that might make his life easier and more comfortable.
Even if this is contrary to his dream of being a professional e-sports player back then.
Lin Feng, who was tired and unwilling to continue this topic, sent another message:
"It's getting late, let's talk next time."
"Thank you for tonight."
The chat window was quiet for a moment, and finally a message came back:
"You're welcome."
No other more replies and explanations.
The last two sentences of conversation were actually quite polite, but somehow, there seemed to be a faint sense of strangeness between the two of them.
