Time gradually passed, and it was late July.
The sun was blazing hot in Shanghai.
The hot sun scorched the pavement, and the air was sultry. The sycamore trees on both sides of the street drooped lazily, as if it was difficult to lift one's spirits in such a season. The sound of cicadas chirping among the branches and treetops was still incessant, making people feel a little annoyed.
No one would be willing to stay outdoors for long in such weather.
Correspondingly, business in the major Internet cafes and internet cafes in Shanghai was naturally getting better.
Pushing open the curtains and walking into the lobby of the Internet cafes, one would be greeted by a cool and comfortable breeze from the air conditioner. The comfortable environment, the high-end keyboard and mouse computer configuration, a few good friends, a few bottles of iced soda, and a few hours in front of the computer to play League of Legends.
Such a scene had become a ubiquitous sight in the Internet cafes of Shanghai this summer.
Of course, there was probably another activity to be added to this daily routine.
"Hey, is the guru 006 online today?"
"I think I saw the guru play all night until 4 o 'clock yesterday, right? It's almost afternoon now, and he should get up and get to work! "
"To be honest, if he's lucky today, he has a chance to make it to the top 15!"
"I think he was ranked 21st when I checked yesterday?"
"Damn, he's really fast!"
In the major Internet cafes and internet cafes, whether it was in the lobby or in the private rooms, one could hear excited and heated discussions related to the topic of cn 006.
The summer weather was hot.
On the Internet, the news of cn 006's solo ranking in the King Group of the European server was also trending.
As someone's ranking in the King Group of the European server became higher and closer to the top ten, the attention and enthusiasm of the local players and netizens also increased.
This was something to look forward to!
Every day, the first thing they did when they turned on the computer and went online was to scroll through the Tieba forum to check the latest records and rankings of cn 006.
Every time they refreshed, they would see exciting good news.
In the past two days, the speed of cn 006's ranking in the King Group of the European server seemed to have slowed down a little, but in any case, it was still climbing to the top of the list at a steady and steady pace.
This made many local players and netizens feel even more expectant.
After all, no matter how slow God 006's ranking was, as long as he maintained this momentum …
He would definitely be able to make it into the top ten, top five, or even the top!
Reaching the top of the European server's King Group Leaderboard?
Such a glorious feat seemed to be unprecedented in their national server!
Even the top ten players in the European server could not be counted on more than two or three players from the local server. But now, it seemed that the mysterious CN _ 006 player was only a few steps away from the top ten of the Champion Group Leaderboard!
Right, speaking of which —
What was the background of such a powerful God on the national server?
The majority of the Chinese players and netizens suddenly felt that they had encountered similar problems in this new season. For example, in the latest Nightingale Dark Battle, there was also a mysterious player from the Chinese server, Lin, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere and made it into the Top 3 of the Dark Battle rankings. No one could find out his identity or background.
And now there was the addition of CN _ 006.
So their national server was actually so full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons?
A bunch of truly amazing Gods didn't care about playing professionally at all. Did they just love to surprise everyone with a single brilliant feat?
The Chinese players and netizens were excited and regretful at the same time.
After all, whether it was Lin or cn 006, these top players on the national server were passersby who did not play professional esports. If these two could join the professional esports circle of the national server, it would mean that the national server would have at least two more players who would be able to hold their own in international competitions.
But now?
Their national server still only had Morning Star among the Seven Kings. At most, they had King's Yuan Shen and Team Rapid's "Addisi." Compared to North America, Europe, and Korea, they were still a long way off.
…
"F * ck, so you really don't know how much pressure I've been under recently!"
In a phone call, Shi Hang complained to Lin Feng.
"Kid, you got a CN _ 006 account on the European server, and you've made a name for yourself."
"Do you know what the Chinese server is talking about now?"
"They're talking about Lin and now 006. Neither of them play professionally, but they can beat a bunch of professional solo players in the LPL."
"Professional players are not as good as passersby. They might as well go home and plant sweet potatoes —"
"F * ck, listen to that! It's all over the Internet! I've been having a hard time lately! "
Shi Hang, who was pouring out his grievances, could be imagined through the phone line that his expression was filled with bitterness and deep hatred at that moment.
"Why do you think those netizens are so simple-minded?"
"Do they really think our Chinese passersby are as good as vegetables on the side of the road?"
"F * ck, Lin and 006 are the same person!"
Lin Feng rubbed his chin.
"Oh, is that so?"
Shi Hang nearly spat blood on the other end of the line. "Oh my * ss! Aren't both of their IDs your sockpuppets?! I'm telling you, you're the one to blame for this. Remember to treat me to at least ten good meals in the future! Otherwise, I won't be able to heal this broken heart of mine! "
Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh. "Oh, oh. When I'm done with my work in the next few days and the European server is over, let's meet up when I have time."
Shi Hang was almost done with his nonsense. At this time, Shi Hang finally became serious again.
"That's why you've been playing solo in the European server lately. Do you really plan to make it to the top of the Challenger League leaderboard?
"But to be honest, you're recovering pretty well now. I was watching that Sakura girl live streamer over at DouYu's European server's high-end game OB. You seem to be on a winning streak these two days, right?"
"If we're talking about getting first place in the European server … if it's you, it's really possible."
Lin Feng shook his head.
"It doesn't matter if I'm first or not."
"It just sounds better, that's all."
Shi Hang came to a realization. "I was chatting with Thirteen last time. Oh, right. You're going after that Crow, right?"
When it came to the name of the ID, Shi Hang's tone became more cautious.
"Damn, I didn't expect those old guys from the previous generation to still be so strong."
"J alone is already at the level of a Yonkō. I heard that Crow is the real core of that group? Then he must be at least a Yonkō. "
Lin Feng nodded. "Mhm."
Shi Hang was suddenly puzzled.
"But I don't think Crow has been online for the past few days. Same with that J."
"Crow was at the top of the European server leaderboard a while ago, but he's been overtaken by Phoenix these past two days. What's going on? They've guessed your ID and identity, so they're hiding from you? "
Lin Feng paused for a moment. After a while, he slowly shook his head.
"That's not possible."
Based on the actions of those from the previous generation, it was very likely that they would continue to keep a low profile in order to maintain their mysteriousness. Avoiding the battle might really be a possibility.
But for some reason, Lin Feng didn't think that they would really do that.
Because the ID he took out this time was cn 006.
Based on what he knew about Crow's personality from the previous generation, when a dazzling number like "006" appeared in Crow's eyes …
Words like "avoiding battle" would definitely not exist.
Even …
Lin Feng took a deep breath.
He had a premonition that the other party had been waiting for him for a long time.
And —
He and the terrifying crow that shrouded the whole of Europe like a cold shadow in the previous generation might soon meet!
