Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 38 The curtain opens
November 4th. On the day of the competition, Li Luo still got up at ten o'clock as usual, ate breakfast, and did some morning exercises to warm up his body.

After playing two custom games to warm up, the RNG team headed to the competition venue.

The game starts at 3 PM, and you can enter the stadium at 2 PM, so there's plenty of time.

As soon as I got off the bus, the entrance was cordoned off.

A group of spectators with national flags and RNG face prints on their faces waved the flags and roared loudly:

"Go RNG!!!"

"The all-Chinese team will win!!!"

The RNG members, who were initially nervous, were instantly ignited by the enthusiastic audience, their passion burning brightly within them.

This is our home ground, this is our territory, we are the masters, and we have nothing to fear!

Today, the Bird's Nest is a sea of ​​red.

Upon arriving at the lounge, the RNG members remained silent, watching the opening ceremony on the television screen.

A melodious erhu tune began to play.

The designers from Riot Games appeared in the video.

"League of Legends has become a special language, so I think playing LOL can connect people of different skin colors and different races."

"We will all leave our own legend in League of Legends!"

As Jay Chou finished speaking, the magnificent Bird's Nest stadium erupted in thunderous cheers.

The erhu, a culmination of ancient Chinese culture, finally resounded.

The mournful sounds of the erhu and drums echoed into the melodious sky, eliciting screams from the audience.

For the first time, Chinese facial makeup culture was showcased to players worldwide. This is China, and this is No.1!

After four years of fighting against South Korea, we finally got to play on home soil! Even at the very beginning, tears welled up in the eyes of the excited audience!
We've waited four whole years for this one! How many four-year periods does one have in a lifetime? How many four-year periods does one have in youth?

Jay Chou, accompanied by majestic Chinese music, brought us the first opening track, "Hero".

"Spin and jump with your eyes closed~, Carter will make you close your eyes after he finishes spinning~"

"Wukong and Garen are spinning around too~"

"Blind Monk Li will kick you all the way back to your hometown!"

The stage was filled with Chinese opera performers, bringing the atmosphere to one climax after another.

As the music ended, Jay Chou walked to the grand piano in the center of the stage and began to play the prelude to the S7 World Championship finals music.

The lead singer of Against The Current took the stage.

Legends Never Die, belonging to S7, resounded throughout the venue.

Legends never die.

When the world is calling you.

Can you hear them screaming out your name, the world calls your name.

Legends never die.

They become a part of you, etching their legend into your own heart.

Every time you bleed for reaching greatness, you fight bloody battles and forge legends.

Legends never die.

As the music reached its climax, two avatars appeared on the screen: An Zhangmen on the left and Uzi on the right.

A mournful dragon roar resounded, and a giant dragon from the canyon flew out into the sky above the venue, circled the area once, and then departed.

Before the RNG members could continue watching the opening ceremony, a staff member rushed into the lounge and quickly said:

"Hurry, hurry, go to the front and wait. After the song is over, it's our turn to enter."

Li Luo felt his vision blurring, feeling nervous and excited.

It's really time to go on stage.

History has truly been changed.

He has finally changed what netizens described as a home game for Chinese players, a game with Chinese audiences, and a match played by Koreans.

In this sacred and wondrous moment, Li Luo's heart rate instantly accelerated to 120.

No one comforted him, because everyone was very nervous.

Even Xiangguo, who usually loves to talk trash, clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

Upon reaching the entrance, I was awestruck by the realistic Summoner's Rift up close, and then by the vast, dark sea of ​​red figures. It was breathtaking.

excited.

Full of pressure.

Looking at all the world championships, which other world championship has this kind of spirit?

As a match watched by 100 million people in history, its significance is unparalleled.

Brother Zaozi! Did you see that?! I've already fulfilled your wish to stand on the Bird's Nest finals!

Now let's work together to win that coveted trophy in the center of the stage!
At this point, the significance of the finals has been elevated; this is no longer a battle fought by one person.

This is RNG's battle, LPL's battle, and the battle of all Chinese players!

Ren Dong, wielding the Unbreakable Grip, walked out from the center of the stage, and the S-series trophy was also brought to the center of the venue by the staff.

Let's welcome Samsung!

A loud cheer erupted from the field. China is a nation of etiquette, and everyone cheered for the South Korean team.

Let's welcome RNG to the stage!

Wow! ! !
Oh my!!!

Everyone, including the staff, stood up upon hearing this.

Everyone stand up. From this moment on, this is RNG Square.

Everyone, stand up!
The cheers, dozens of times louder than those for Samsung, emanated from the Bird's Nest stadium and remained clear for kilometers around.

"First, we'd like to introduce last year's runner-up, Team Samsung. Welcome, Samsung!"

"LCK Top Lane Solo Kill King Cuvve"

"Ambition, a jungler who has been competing in the league for many years"

"LCK Spring Split MVP, powerful mid laner, crown"

"The next generation AD carry, the ruler"

"Strong team leadership, CoreJJ"

Each time a team member was introduced, cheers erupted from below.

"Also welcome substitute player haru, and coach Edgar."

Substitute players and coaches should also enjoy the same entry privileges. Haru, the young player, was treated the same as the Young Pioneers, and even gave a comical salute, which caused a burst of laughter from the audience.

"The team we're going to introduce next is definitely familiar to you, that's RNG."

After Ren Dong uttered the words "not unfamiliar," the rest of his voice was drowned out by the shouts of the audience.

"Top Laner Dynasty, Armored Guardians, Letme"

"LPL Spring Split MVP Mid Laner, Spring Tiger Emperor, Xiaohu"

"MLXG, the most ferocious jungler in the LPL"

"Legendary AD Carry, Two-Time Runner-Up, Uzi"

"Bold yet meticulous, daring and willing to fight, Ming."

"We also welcome our coach, Feng Ge, and our substitute player, 'Regretfully.'"

The camera focused on Li Luoshi.

The Bird's Nest was like a frying pan, with waves of sound crashing against everyone's eardrums.

After the two teams were introduced, the big screen began playing footage of the banter between the two teams that had been filmed earlier.

The two teams walked towards the station one after the other, with SSG going to the suspended soundproof room on the left.

Rng then went to the suspended soundproof room on the right.

Upon entering the room, staff had already set up and tested the external equipment.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief once they were seated on the benches.

So enthusiastic.

The audience this year was incredibly enthusiastic.

Maintaining a glamorous image under the spotlight is no easy feat for these game-playing nerds.
