Oftentimes, a person's habitual thinking could be fatal.
For example, for Morning Star, there was too little information in his memories of the S1 season. Not only did he have too little information about that era, but it was also too long ago. Therefore, he only had "Addisi" Shi Hang, who had just returned to the professional circle this year, as far as he knew, perhaps belonged to the S1 season.
But …
It was different for Tian Tian.
This was because, including Morning Star, the impression that most players and professional players had of this "Circle God" of Team KG was that this current top laner of the national server had always been active and shining on the stage of the national server and even the international arena. It had been too long, so everyone was too familiar with this Circle God, but they had subconsciously forgotten when the former had entered the circle.
After all, in everyone's common sense, a professional esports player's golden lifespan was only so long.
Very few people would have thought that a top player like Tian Tian, who had firmly occupied the throne of the top laner in the national server until now, had actually been fighting in the professional arena since the ancient times of the S1 season, and had actually been able to maintain his peak Gold status until now.
Morning Star had also subconsciously forgotten about this point.
So …
It was only at this moment, when Huangxue Nightsong inadvertently mentioned it, that he suddenly came to a realization, and then suddenly his mind was suddenly shaken to the point where it was difficult to control.
Because he realized that this information … seemed to be directly related to some critical and fatal truth that he had perhaps also missed out on.
Yes.
KG's Circle God was also a player in the S1 season!
He remembered that back in the S1 season, there seemed to be such a team on the national server that had fought their way into the World Finals, and in the end, they had won the runner-up trophy. Now, KG's "Circle God" Tian Tian was a member of that runner-up team.
Even a long time ago, he had specially spent time looking for video recordings of that year's World Finals in the S1 season. In the end, he did not find the final video of the 'best-of-five' finals, but he did find the video of the semi-finals.
It seemed like …
At that time, the national server's opponent was from Europe, a top team led by "Phoenix".
It was also a best-of-five.
He finished all five matches.
Even though it had been a long time and many of the details of the match had been blurred in his memory, Morning Star could still clearly remember the shock and excitement he felt when he watched the video.
What left the deepest impression on him was that almost every member of the Chinese team, including Nakano's ADC position, had displayed impeccable strength and superb teamwork.
Even now, when he thought about it again, or judging it from his current point of view —
That team.
Those five people.
Perhaps they could crush over 95% of the professional teams in this era. At least for Morning Star himself, just looking at the extremely blurry recording of the match was enough to make his scalp tingle. If possible, he definitely wouldn't want to be an opponent against that team's five players.
It should be known that in that team, Tian Tiankong was already in charge of the unit position. Regardless of the other positions, whether it was the sense of rhythm or the individual skill level, they were all stronger than the former!
Even Morning Star couldn't believe that there was such a terrifying five-man team.
Almost.
It was a terrifying team that was not inferior to the publicly acknowledged strongest team in the world, South Korea's SSK Team.
Of course, it was also a long time ago, so Morning Star's impression of the team that made it to the World Finals in Season S1 was very vague.
Until now, when his old friend next to him inadvertently brought it up again, and he thought about the ID that a certain someone had casually mentioned as if nothing had happened …
Everything.
It seemed to have crossed the boundary of time.
All the way back.
He reconnected all the information, all the memories that had been buried in the past, bit by bit, until he was about to weave a truth that was truly shocking to the extreme.
…
Huangxue Nightsong could only see the expression on his old friend's face suddenly changing. He couldn't help but be shocked.
"Ah Xing?"
However, before he could ask about his concern, Morning Star had already raised his hand to stop him.
At this moment, Morning Star's heart began to tremble violently.
His mind was filled with …
Only the ID name that someone told him just now began to flash in his mind. Just a little bit more and he would be able to connect some of the most crucial parts together.
He would be able to find out the truth that could completely shock the entire professional esports circle!
Maple。
Maple。
Maple。
This ID name flashed in his mind again and again. The light in Morning Star's eyes flickered rapidly. Season S1, God of Circles Tian Tiankong, the set of best-of-five matches in the semifinals of the World S-League Tournament that he watched back then …
Finally.
It seemed like an instant.
A bright bolt of lightning flashed across his mind, causing Morning Star's entire body to tremble violently uncontrollably!
He … thought of it.
Almost instantly, even with Morning Star's calm personality, when he guessed the truth, all the goosebumps on his body were about to explode. His scalp was numb to the extreme. An indescribable shock almost made him dizzy. His eyes immediately looked at a certain someone who was not far away and was talking to Number One and Number Five with a fawning expression.
Then, the heart of the number one mid player in the national server almost uncontrollably gave birth to a feeling of absurdity and disbelief after a huge shock —
Actually …
It's him!?
Then, Morning Star snapped out of his daze and sucked in a deep breath. Only then did he manage to force himself to calm down a little, but he still could not stop his emotions from surging up and down. He could not get rid of the shock that was still as intense as ever.
Yes.
Why didn't I think of it earlier?
A professional player in Season S1.
To be able to obtain the favor and care of Number One and Number Five, these legendary seniors.
His strength was so strong that he was not inferior to any of the Yonkō in the professional esports circle …
No.
Suddenly, a bitter smile appeared on Morning Star's face. It wasn't a question of whether he was inferior or not. Since he was the "one" of Season S1, then he was already standing at the top of the pyramid in the earliest era.
That was …
In a real sense, he was the earliest in the national server. Even in the past six seasons, he was well-deserved …
The strongest.
Huangxue Nightsong couldn't help but reach out and wave his hand in front of Morning Star. "Hey, come back to your senses. What's going on? Isn't your reaction too scary?"
Morning Star took another deep breath and shook his head.
"I'm fine."
Huangxue Nightsong didn't believe it at all. "You call this fine? Who are you trying to fool? "
"I'm really fine." Morning Star let out a long breath of turbid air. His gaze once again deeply looked at someone not far away. Then, he retracted his gaze and looked at his old friend next to him. He smiled bitterly. "It's just that … I discovered some shocking truths."
