"I don't feel as bad as you guys think," Nian Thirteen said to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng nodded. "I can see that."
After avoiding the people from the LPL division, the two of them arrived at the rooftop outside the corridor on the sixth floor of the hotel. Before coming over, they went to the buffet restaurant on the second floor and grabbed some fries, burgers, and Coke. They enjoyed their dinner on the rooftop in the cool night air. They seemed quite relaxed and comfortable.
Nian Thirteen gulped down a mouthful of soda and Coke with a straw. He burped and rubbed his belly in satisfaction.
"I just can't be bothered to see Old Ye and the others sympathize with me, that's all."
"F * ck, let's be honest. Aside from yesterday's loss to God, I've been a perfect carry in both matches today."
Lin Feng nodded in agreement.
"Yeah."
"You did pretty well in both matches today."
"Not bad at all!" Nian Thirteen exclaimed, and then began to describe with delight, "To be honest, in the match against Minx this morning, my blind player was good enough to carry, right? Really, based on my performance in that match, I think it's not too much to call me the best player in a single match in the S6 Group Stage! "
Lin Feng nodded again.
"Not too much, not at all."
Indeed.
In fact, it had already been acknowledged by everyone in the stadium today.
In the match between Hitman Slayer and Minx in the morning, almost everyone believed that Hitman Slayer had little chance of winning. It was all thanks to Nian Thirteen's Blind Monk, Li Qing's unbelievable performance that Hitman Slayer managed to turn the tables and win the match.
His frequent roaming in the early game gave him a 100% gank success rate.
Blind Monk's strong early game offensive characteristics were fully utilized by him. Team Minx's jungler was completely turned over by Blind Monk in the first ten minutes. Blind Monk's growth and level were two whole levels higher than Team Minx's.
This was the disparity between the two junglers in terms of matchups.
In that match, Team Minx's top laner, The-Sword, and mid laner, Fly, were able to gain a significant advantage in the early game. In the middle of the game, the two coordinated perfectly and forced Team Assassin into a dangerous situation.
However, Nian Thirteen relied on his Blind Monk's god-level operation in the team battle stage. He made the first move with two R-flash attacks and perfectly moved to the core position of the opponent's backline. He helped his teammates focus fire on one or two enemies and forcibly turned the situation around to lay the foundation for his team's victory.
"It's the same for the match against Fate in the afternoon."
Nian Thirteen's interest was obviously piqued. He continued to sputter,
"My Olaf didn't have any problems in that match, did he?"
"Even Moon's mid lane was tormented by me in the early stages of the game. Hahaha, I don't think that guy has encountered such a difficult situation this year —"
Lin Feng happily agreed.
"Yeah, it was really difficult."
As one of the Four Emperors and the mid-laner captain of Fate, Moon's playstyle had always been steady and cautious. He rarely gave his opponent's jungler any chances during the match. However, in the last match in the afternoon, Moon's mid-laner Vampire had been ganked to death twice by Nian Thirteen's jungler Olaf. He had no choice but to drag the pace of the match to the later stages of the match and slowly look for an opportunity to strike.
Therefore, Nian Thirteen's bragging at this moment was not exaggerated at all.
In today's match, no matter whether it was Group C or Group D, Nian Thirteen, the jungler captain of Team Assassin, was undoubtedly the most dazzling player among the forty players on the field.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Nian XIII's performance and condition were better than Mafa's, who was also one of the world's two wild kings, at least so far in the finals.
Especially in today's two matches.
It was true.
The number one jungler in the LMS region, who was at the top of the Seven Kings, had already seen the threshold of becoming one of the Yonkō.
Unfortunately —
Nian Thirteen suddenly fell silent.
After a long while, he slowly shook his head as if he was sighing regretfully.
"Just a little bit more."
…
The night was as cold as water.
Looking from the rooftop, one could see the brightly lit scenery of Manchester City.
As the night breeze blew, Nian Thirteen's eyes drooped, and his expression was hard to read.
Next to him, Lin Feng threw the wrapper of his hamburger into the trash can next to him and wiped his hands with a napkin.
"Yeah."
"Just a little bit more."
From the beginning to the end, Nian Shisan was the one speaking, while he either listened or agreed with what she said.
Because there was no need for more words.
This old friend in front of him, his old rival, knew all too well what had happened.
Yeah.
It was really regrettable.
This was because after the match between Assassin and Minx this morning, the jungler captain of Team Assassin had almost crossed the threshold of becoming one of the Yonkō (Four Emperors). If he was given a little more time to adapt and adjust, and carefully ponder the things that he had achieved this breakthrough, his chances of winning against Team Fate would increase by at least twenty percent.
Unfortunately.
Reality didn't give him and Team Assassin such a chance.
Therefore, even though they had taken that crucial half-step, the Hitman Assassins still fell in front of the Korean top veteran team.
"Fate is really strong."
Nian Thirteen turned to look at Lin Feng and said solemnly,
"Moon as well."
"Although we've said before that this guy and his Fate team are underestimated, it wasn't until this afternoon, when I took that half step and fought against Fate again, that I truly experienced this feeling."
Lin Feng nodded.
"Yeah."
"Didn't I fight with Fate a few days ago during the mock competition with your Hitman team?"
"I know."
Nian Thirteen was stunned for a moment, then he slapped his forehead.
"Yeah."
"If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten —"
"And if it's you, you should have felt it at the time."
It was not until he made a breakthrough today that he was able to directly and deeply understand the hidden horror of the "Moon Empress". If it was someone else's current realm, they would have naturally noticed it earlier than him.
"As expected, you have to experience it for yourself to remember it."
Nian Thirteen sighed.
"The next time we meet them, Fate won't give them a chance like today."
He paused for a moment and then became serious again.
"But if you ask me, with Fate's performance this year, if they bring out all their hidden trump cards, their overall strength will probably be able to rank in the top three of this season's finals."
"Neither Legend nor Season can compare to them."
"Old Ye and Ah Xing's God will probably have a headache."
"As for SSK …"
Nian Thirteen paused again and frowned at Lin Feng.
"Sigh, I still can't figure out what's going on with SSK's F …"
"If it's you, you should be able to figure it out."
Lin Feng was silent for a moment.
Facing his old friend in front of him, especially when he was about to leave, he finally chose to give an answer.
"His situation."
"Similar to you now."
