The conversation between the two Yonkō (Four Kings) didn't last long.
It was just a simple conversation, but the information contained in it was enough for the two of them.
Of course, their goals weren't just limited to the quarterfinals.
Both of them had to continue moving forward.
For Legend, the results of the quarterfinals draw were naturally optimistic, but they couldn't underestimate their opponent, the third seed of the LPL.
Autumn's seemingly casual reminder was enough for Phoenix to make a clear statement.
This was enough to serve as a response.
Even if Legend was only the second seed of the European LCS this year, and their condition seemed to be slightly inferior to that of MLG, they still couldn't be ignored. In the group stage a few days ago, Season, a true veteran powerhouse of Europe, had won two matches in a row and advanced to the next round as the top team in Group B.
The saying that they weren't in good condition this season … Perhaps it wasn't so easily applied to this team.
In fact, this might even be a layer of fog that the Battle Team had purposely kept to cover up their true strength.
It was the same logic.
Phoenix also gave Autumn a similar warning.
The true purpose was naturally revealed by the North American God of Assistance, and the first King of Law in Europe also did not hide it and frankly admitted it.
There was no need for the two of them to deliberately mystify such a small matter.
They both understood each other's true intentions.
Because they both saw the problem with SSK and the world's number one mid laner.
Because the two of them were originally the second and third seed of the Yonkō (Four Kings), they were more sensitive to subtle changes than any other top professional players.
So, in fact, Phoenix's warning was also a kind of invisible entrustment.
Since Season was the first to meet SSK in the quarterfinals, the task of finding out the truth about the Yonkō (Four Kings) was naturally entrusted to Autumn.
And Autumn's reply was also a kind of promise —
As long as the quarterfinals began.
When the Season team he led met the world's strongest team.
Then, no matter what kind of secret the Yonkō (Four Kings) was hiding, there would be no room for concealment.
…
Apart from the brief exchange between the captains of Legend and Season, the remaining teams in the quarterfinals were still digesting the results of the draw.
The atmosphere in MLG's club was rather solemn. Even when they were on the bus back to the hotel, the MLG players in the bus were silent and solemn.
Just now, the club's coach and team leader came over to talk to Spoon in a low voice. They talked about the training arrangements for the next two days and gave him some encouragement, but Spoon just nodded and shook his head. He smiled bitterly and said nothing.
Naturally, such feelings were understandable.
If they were to be compared, their luck was not much better than Season's, who had encountered SSK.
His opponent in the quarterfinals …
It was Team God.
If one took into account SSK's poor performance in the group stage, then the team that had displayed the most frightening strength so far in the finals was the first seed of the LPL.
Drawing such an opponent in the quarterfinals was practically the worst possible scenario.
However —
Spoon shook his head again and took a deep breath. The fighting spirit in his eyes began to burn again.
Even if it was God …
Let's give it our best shot.
MLG's journey in the finals this year was not going to stop at the quarterfinals so easily.
Compared to MLG, the atmosphere in Fate's club, which was also on the bus, was slightly stronger. However, it was also a little heavy and oppressive, because their opponent this time was Team KG.
They were also the second seed of the LPL who had displayed their strength in the group stage.
"We can't be careless.
"We have to give it our all.
"Of course, we also have to believe in our own strength."
On the bus, the head coach of Team Fate lectured and encouraged the team members.
"Don't forget, we just fought our way out of the death group.
"If we can even overcome that obstacle, no other difficulties will be an obstacle for us!"
The Fate team members solemnly responded, their morale soaring.
Only the captain, Moon, sat in the seat by the window, looking out at the scenery flying past him. He seemed to be deep in thought.
Of course, he would not underestimate their opponent in the quarterfinals, Team KG.
However, at this moment …
His mind was subconsciously focused on the match between SSK and Season.
Yes.
He did not doubt that SSK was hiding the truth, nor did he believe that F, who was ranked first among the Four Emperors, was simply "not playing well."
But he also did not think that SSK's current condition was normal.
Something must have gone wrong.
Of course, with the abilities of SSK and the guy who was ranked first among the Four Emperors, even if there was a problem, they would be able to solve it.
But the crux of the matter was —
At this moment, the captain of Team Fate, who was ranked last among the Four Emperors but had been greatly underestimated by the outside world, lowered his head slightly. His eyes shone with a profound light.
(If.)
(This problem is tricky enough.)
(What if … it's so tricky that SSK and F can't solve it in time for the match against Season?)
…
This seemed to be what the team leaders and coaches of SSK were worried about.
So, on the way back, the head coach of the club could not sit still and looked for the captain of his team to have a conversation. But in the end, he did not get a satisfactory answer from the captain.
The worried head coach looked for his immediate superior, the young head coach, and brought up the matter again.
But the young head coach's attitude on the matter was still as calm as ever.
"It's fine."
"You don't have to worry too much about this."
"Believe in Shihao and the rest of the team. They won't let us down."
At the same time, the main players of SSK were also looking at their captain.
As they looked at each other, Mafa was the first to speak.
"How's the situation on your side?"
Han Shihao was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
Cube frowned slightly, a rare look of worry on his face. "These few days … we won't be able to make it in time, right?"
Han Shihao nodded.
"We won't make it in time."
Even Wolf took a deep breath, a serious look on his face.
"That's a little troublesome."
Although they had a sufficient understanding of their captain's current situation, and the other members of the main force had previously promised to share all the pressure before everything was perfectly resolved, they would help shoulder all the burden.
But the problem was that their next opponent in the quarterfinals was Season.
Facing a strong opponent from last year's finals, if they could not face them in their best form, it would be very risky.
Han Shihao shook his head again, and his answer was simple and concise.
"I can't guarantee anything."
The main players of SSK fell silent.
After a while, Mafa nodded.
"Understood."
"Then continue to focus on your own matters."
Speaking of this, the vice-captain of SSK, who was ranked as one of the world's two wild kings with Nian Thirteen, paused for a moment, then slowly spoke again.
"The rest …"
"Leave it to me."
