MTL - As a Captain, You Must Be Cold-Chapter 87

The video intimacy that Yu Zhaohan wanted to learn had to be postponed because the playoffs were coming—they had to go abroad to play again.

The playoffs are no different than the regular season. Sixteen teams come from all over the world. Some home cities are separated by the Pacific Ocean, and it takes more than ten hours to fly. If the home and away game mode is still adopted, everyone is busy flying around the world, and just adjusting the time difference will waste a day, which will have a great impact on the player's state. Therefore, when it comes to the playoffs, the league officials will select several cities within a certain range as the venue for the competition.

The playoffs of The International this year will be held in Europe, specifically in Paris, France, London, England, Berlin, Germany and Madrid, Spain.

Visas and air tickets will be done when they are sure to qualify for the playoffs. Because Qi Xian still needs to rebuild in China, he can't fly to Europe with them for the time being.

This time going abroad, everyone's mood is not as relaxed as the last time they went to Korea. Lu Youshan and Cheese were reluctant to present together.

Qi Xian used his uninjured hand to help his teammates pack their luggage, while comforting them: "If the recovery goes well, I will be able to play when R.H plays the semi-finals, and it will be soon."

Cheese reluctantly said: "Then I'll take the chrysanthemums we bought in Shenyang first, as if you were with us."

"Okay, that's a good idea—do you want Timeless to bring a chrysanthemum?" Qi Xian said with a smile, "Don't you like pink chrysanthemums?"

These words sounded weird, but Shi Du couldn't tell what was wrong. He asked, "What the hell?"

Yu Zhaohan passed by and heard the conversation of several people, and said, "I told them that you like pink chrysanthemums, so they brought back a pot."

Shi Du: "...Oh."

The first week of the competition was held in London, and it took half a day to fly from Shanghai to London. In order to ensure the comfort of their long-distance travel, the little boss spends huge sums of money to upgrade them to first-class cabins, and the airfare for one person costs six figures.

Lao Tan looked at the travel expenses that added up to over one million, and it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel distressed. But the little boss generously said that as long as R.H can bring back the 11 million US dollars belonging to the champion, not to mention the small money for travel expenses, each person will be awarded a car at that time.

After nearly 13 hours of long-distance flight, the plane arrived at London Heathrow Airport on time, and the staff of the league picked them up and sent them to the hotel.

The accommodation of the major clubs is arranged by the official. In the hotel near the venue, the four domestic teams formed new neighbors. The young boys were full of energy and started hanging out with each other even if they were jet-lagged.

Yu Zhaohan saw many people. Needless to say, those old acquaintances in the IPL, and Archer, the number one archer in the DSD league.

IPL and DSD are actively preparing for the North American one big and one small two demon kings. They joked that whoever goes to the loser's bracket will call their father, and they also said that they invited the highly respected team Yu to be a witness.

The highly respected Captain Yu: "Childish."

The group of people from Chongqing Eau was lucky enough to make it to the playoffs. They thought they would earn money by playing one more game, but it seemed easier than the three brother teams in the winner's bracket.

Dozens of people ate the very ordinary English buffet in the restaurant of the hotel, and returned to their rooms in small groups.

According to the old rules, two people share a room, and Timeless and the captain share one room in R.H. It has long been an iron rule. Lu Youshan specifically told Yu Zhaohan to be nervous about preparing for the battle, and not to delay his rest just to hang out with Little Green Tea.

"I have a sense of proportion, I don't need you to teach me how to do things." Yu Zhaohan said, "Also, Timeless is not a small green tea, he is a big one."

Lu Youshan's mind is full of the matter of "Shine has a measure, he can rest assured": "That's fine."

Back in the room, Shi Du began to tidy up the salutes of the two of them. He brought two oversized suitcases this time. Considering that Yuyu might face enormous pressure, he also brought dinosaur pajamas and even a pot in addition to the ball for playing.

Yu Zhaohan watched Shi Du help him deflate the compression bag containing the dinosaur pajamas, and asked, "Shouldn't we live in the same room?"

Shi Du's hands paused, and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Yu Zhaohan was thoughtful: "I'm thinking, maybe I should change my habit of being clingy."

Shi Du's chest was blocked again. He didn't want to show negative emotions, and said in the tone that Yuyu was always speechless: "No, I beg you, I'll kneel down and beg."

Yu Zhaohan said: "But if I can't stick with you in the future, I'm afraid Yuyu won't get used to it."

Shi Du fell silent.

The boy looked at Yu Zhaohan quietly for a long time, but he didn't know what he was thinking. He thought that his whole demeanor had changed, deep and deep, not at all like his usual lazy high school student.

Yu Zhaohan called out: "Shidu?"

Shi Du lowered his head and laughed, and when he raised his head again, he returned to his usual appearance. He threw the dinosaur pajamas to Yu Zhaohan: "The clingy man wants to talk about long-distance relationships like others, so fierce, Yu Zhaohan."

Yu Zhaohan pinched the dinosaur's tail: "That's why I said to change it."

Shi Du sat down next to him, and squeezed together with him: "I'm not being sarcastic, I really think you're fierce."

"Thank you for your rhyming compliment." Yu Zhaohan said, "But why did you suddenly praise me?"

"Because you're better than me." Shi Du said slowly, "If I can't be stuck by Yuyu, it might not be as simple as not being used to it. I will be very sad."

Yu Zhaohan let out an "ah".

He seldom saw Shi Du really sad, under normal circumstances, he was the one who was sad, and Shi Du comforted him thoughtfully and awkwardly. Even if Shi Du is sad, he will use [casualness] to cover it up, just like the last time he fell out with his family in Beijing, his face was scratched, and he still had a strong appearance of "I don't care" in front of him.

The only time he saw Shidu so sad that he didn't even bother to pretend was when he lost the finals against Lawman in the IPL last year. He still remembered that when Timeless walked off the arena, his eyes turned red when he looked back.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhaohan asked: "If you can't be stuck with me, will you cry?"

"Maybe," Shi Du laughed again, "Who knows."

Yu Zhaohan patted Shi Du's head: "Don't cry, you're not like me, you haven't learned expression management, you won't be handsome if you cry, I prefer handsome ones."

Shi Du couldn't laugh anymore, and said anxiously, "You mean, if I'm not handsome, you will lose your favorability?"

"If you don't want to be handsome, I can teach you how to cry beautifully."

Shi Du faintly sensed that the topic was going to be diverted by Yu Zhaohan again, so he spoke cautiously: "I don't really want to learn."

"First of all, you need to keep in mind that you must never have a runny nose..." Yu Zhaohan said a lot to himself, and did not forget to remind: "You take a notebook."

Shi Du frowned: "It's so difficult, I can't learn it."

Yu Zhaohan said patiently: "It's not difficult, it's very simple, you can learn it by crying a lot."

Time Du: "..."

The match between R.H and Sakura is scheduled for the second match day, and the highlight of the first match day is the IPL match against Lawman. Everyone in R.H was busy preparing for the game and couldn't go to the scene. They watched the whole game in the room of Lao Tan and Lu Youshan.

Lawman was also last year's four starters, one Chinese, one Korean and two Americans. Throughout the regular season, no team in the Western Division could win even a small map in their hands.

The teams in the Western Division rely more on the performance of players' star **** than operations. This may not be a wise choice for ordinary teams. After all, star **** are not something you can have, and there may only be one or two in a game.

But Lawman's four starters are all at the top of the West in their positions, and one of their normal operations is at the level of a star ball for others.

Operations don't matter, and language communication is not a problem. In the game against IPL, Lawman once again showed the terrifying strength of the Western rulers.

In the first two rounds, IPL can be said to be played by Lawman on the ground, and there is no hope of winning. Judging from Xu's expression, it seemed that he was about to be beaten into tears.

In the third game, Lawman thought he had figured out the strength of the strong teams in the Eastern Division [just here], so he had some reservations; but the IPL gradually improved, and the other side seized the opportunity to hit the star ball with triple kills and scored a point with difficulty. .

Lawman quickly adjusted his status, making this point the only point in the IPL.

In the BO7 format of the playoffs, Lawman won 4:1 and sent the IPL to the loser's bracket.

"Tide doesn't even take black swans anymore." Old Tan said, "Three of the five rounds use archers."

Yu Zhaohan said: "Lawman won't let him use the version of the sacrifice, even if he can use this sacrifice to hit a headshot rate that is almost the same as mine."

Stone asked, "Why?"

"It's not difficult to understand." Shi Du said, "Lawman believes in the supremacy of data, whether it is the data of players or the data of version heroes. In their view, weak heroes are not qualified to play."

Lu Youshan looked at the comparison of the tank data after the game, and said: "In such a bad situation, Bi An can still hit this data... He should be the main tank of the national team."

To the relief of domestic fans, Chongqing Eau beat Busan Cobra 4:0 in the next loser's bracket game, giving Cobra a one-day playoff tour and extending his playoff journey.

Because Cobra only kills people and does not occupy points, and the two incidents of its fans attacking R.H players, the domestic fans and Cobra have deep grievances. Seeing that they just came to Europe and they will pack up and leave, they are so happy that they go to the Cobra official website on the Internet. Bo Xia expressed his "sincere blessings".

[Ask if you don’t understand, have you finished shopping around the hotel rooms? 】

[Let me see who played four small rounds from Busan to London for more than 20 hours]

[I really want to ask that Cobra fan surnamed Jin how he feels after watching this game]

[It's a bit difficult, and I don't know if I can watch the game in Korea:)]

At noon the next day, everyone in R.H met Bi An and Xu in the restaurant.

The resurrection of IPL is gone, and the loss is ugly. Everyone has lost, and they know that words of comfort are useless in this situation. Shi Du didn't say anything, he just patted the former captain on the shoulder.

Yu Zhaohan said: "Steady."

The other shore seemed to be in good condition, and said with a smile: "This round is not very likely to win, we all accepted it, but it is a bit annoying to call those idiots of DSD 'dad' - don't think about it, just play well in the next game .”

"Come on for today's game, Team Yu." Xu Qiang smiled happily, "I don't want to meet you in the loser's bracket."

Yu Zhaohan nodded: "Okay."

After dinner, the league staff took R.H to the competition venue. On the way to the waiting room, they had a face-to-face meeting with Team Sakura.

In the last regular season match with the Sakura team, Xun saw that Timeless, who was in the same position, turned into a hot-blooded manga style in seconds, and even learned Chinese to declare war. But today, he just gave Timeless a "I'm disappointed in you" look, and then came to declare war on Yu Zhaohan.

Xun paused word by word, and it was very difficult to say: "Look at Ni's bullet, or Wo's knife... which one is better, faster!"

Yu Zhaohan said calmly, "My bullet."

Xun's eyes widened. He must have understood Yu Zhaohan's words but didn't know how to refute in Chinese, so he started talking in his mother tongue.

Cheese asked Shi Du: "Why didn't Xun declare war on you?"

Shi Du smiled: "He probably thinks I'm just a salted fish who chooses to lie down when he has teammate C."

In the last match against the Sakura team, R.H adopted a tank-centric system. In the tank-core system, double Cs are just a foil for tanks. But today they obviously can't fight like this again, firstly because the Sakura team must have learned a lesson, Saint Seiya will not be hit twice by the same move;

R.H adopts the dual-C dual-core system they played the most, the cheese on the nanny.

During the preparation stage after taking the stage, the four chatted in the team voice.

Cheese: "It's not me. The e-sports venues in London are still a little smaller than our home stadium."

Shine: "How does Boulder feel."

Boulder: "It feels... pretty good, but it's the first time I'm not used to seeing so many Europeans and Americans in the audience."

Timeless: "Think of it this way, Europeans and Americans are also fans of R.H."

Cheese: "That's right, the captain's popularity on the Internet is also among the best—wait a minute, I saw the commentator Alva, holding the captain's light sign!"

Timeless: "Huh? What's written on it."

Cheese: "It seems to be Date or something..."

Shine: "Don't be distracted, concentrate on practicing the gun."

Amidst the cheers at the scene, the game officially started.
