Lin Feng actually had a pretty good impression of Morning Star, who was the mid laner captain of God's team.
Not only because of the training matches they had played at Club God's base this afternoon, but also because of the mutual understanding between the two of them. As the strongest mid laner in the national server in the S1 season, he felt a sense of empathy when he met the new strongest mid laner.
When one's strength reached this level …
There would indeed be a lot of tacit understanding that didn't require verbal communication.
For Lin Feng, at least in the Chinese server, it was very difficult to find a mid laner who could keep up with his awareness, rhythm, and mechanics. For example, when he played in SK Ionia's random matchups, his mid laner had never encountered a strong opponent who could put up a fight. As long as he got a little serious, he would be able to crush almost all of them.
Even old friends and rivals like "Eddis" Shi Hang could only barely fight him on equal footing before he fully recovered his strength. Now that he was about to cross the threshold of the Yonkō (Four Emperors) realm, even Shi Hang was far behind him.
It was no exaggeration to say — —
Even though Lin Feng had not truly returned to the professional esports circle, there was almost no one in the entire national server who could stand at the same height as him.
The only thing left was probably the current Morning Star.
And more importantly, through today's training match, the current number one mid laner in the national server had found an opportunity to break through the bottleneck. He was about to truly cross the threshold and go from a half-step Yonkō (Four Emperors) to a true Yonkō (Four Emperors).
Lin Feng didn't feel jealous at all.
He would only be sincerely happy for the other party.
Because the strength of one person was never enough. This principle was not only applicable to a team, but also to the entire professional esports circle.
On the other hand, even though it was only a short afternoon of interaction, Lin Feng admired Morning Star's character and quality.
So …
Under such circumstances, when Morning Star stood in front of him and made such a request with a solemn expression, Lin Feng was a little surprised and curious, but he still nodded straightforwardly without any hesitation.
"No problem."
"Go ahead!"
…
When he agreed so readily, Lin Feng actually subconsciously thought that Morning Star probably had something to do with the training just now, or something about breaking through a bottleneck that he wanted to consult him about.
When it came to such matters, a certain someone would not be stingy in sharing his insights and experiences.
If the national server could really produce a powerhouse at the level of one of the Four Emperors, then it would be a joyous occasion worthy of celebration for the entire national server. After all, this glory was not limited to a specific team, but belonged to the entire national server.
Take Korea's LCK for example. The Four Emperors alone had F- Han Shihao and Moon, and the Seven Emperors also had Mafa and Orian among the Seven Emperors. Putting aside the overall strength of the other regions, the top combat power was far superior to that of any other regions.
On the other hand, the Chinese server's LPL division was inferior to the European and American divisions in terms of top-tier combat power. It was almost at the bottom.
If word of this got out, it would make countless local players and professional esports players feel ashamed.
But …
As long as Morning Star successfully broke through.
And then there was also Lin Feng's return.
Then there was not even a need to consider the new generation of players that might rise up in the national server. The LPL division already had two of the Four Emperors, and could directly compete with Korea's LCK division, which was recognized as the strongest region in the world.
This kind of thing, just thinking about it made people feel excited.
On top of that, the S6 World Finals were just around the corner. For Lin Feng, it was a shame that he would not be able to participate in this year's S-Series League. Therefore, it could be said that out of the three teams in the Chinese server's LPL region, the team with the highest chance of winning the championship was none other than Team God.
Then.
In this kind of situation.
No matter what it was, as long as it could help the core ace of Team God, even if it could improve a little before the big battle, Lin Feng was happy to help.
Who knew? Perhaps it was just a little bit of help, and it was possible to win an unprecedented glory for the national server, wasn't it?
When it came to matters like this, Lin Feng had always been incomparably generous. He wouldn't keep anything to himself. After all, this wasn't the time for internal strife. The S Series World Finals required the entire national server to be united against a common enemy. All personal interests should be compromised for the sake of the team.
It was just that …
The only thing that Lin Feng did not expect was that Morning Star's next sentence seemed to have almost nothing to do with the content of the "consultation" he had originally expected.
In fact, it was thousands of miles apart.
…
"You used to play professionally, right?"
There was almost no foreshadowing in this sentence, and it was thrown out by Morning Star just like that out of the blue.
Lin Feng could not help but be stunned when he heard it, and a blank expression appeared on his face.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Lin Feng's brain was indeed a little overwhelmed, and he could not react in time. His face was full of confusion because this question came too suddenly, and he was not prepared at all. He did not expect that after an afternoon of training, Morning Star's last question to ask him for advice would be this kind of thing.
And …
It was as if he really saw through some of his ins and outs at a glance.
Seeing the strange expression on Lin Feng's face, it seemed that it also made Morning Star even more certain of his guess in his heart. His eyes were fixed on Lin Feng, and he solemnly and seriously said again:
"If you don't mind …"
"I hope you can answer my questions."
Lin Feng finally came back to his senses, and then he stretched out his hand and scratched his head a little uncomfortably: "Ah … Why do you think this way?"
Until now, Lin Feng still had a bit of hope that he could muddle through, but at this moment, Morning Star's eyes were like torches, and he directly and straightforwardly pointed it out:
"You've played against each other, and you've cooperated with each other for an entire afternoon of training matches. If you still can't see this kind of thing …
"My eyesight is too poor."
His meaning was very clear. He was clearly telling Lin Feng that he had already seen through many things, and that they were about the same level of strength. If Lin Feng still insisted on denying this kind of thing, it would be looking down on his intelligence too much.
Lin Feng did not know what else to do. It was indeed the case. Originally, it was impossible for him to hide his own personal strength after this afternoon's training. After all, how could any random player have such a high level of skill? Moreover, his opponent was Morning Star, a mid laner half a step into the Four Step Emperors. His observation and sense of smell were definitely top-notch.
He probably really could not hide it anymore.
Seeing that Lin Feng had already tacitly admitted it, Morning Star was not surprised at all. Instead, his expression became even more solemn:
"If that's the case …"
"Then, I would like to ask, when you played professionally in the past … what ID did you use?"
This was the crux of the matter.
From Morning Star's point of view, Lin Feng's strength and realm could not be simply described with the word 'powerful'. He had already surpassed himself and even crossed the threshold of the strongest existence. Such a person was extremely rare even in the current world of esports, not to mention in the national server. Moreover, he was an esports player who had once played professionally in the national server.
This was precisely the thing that had always puzzled Morning Star the most and difficult to explain.
If.
The person in front of him was a former professional player in the national server, then with this kind of strength, how could he have never heard of it before?
