Chapter 581: S Tournament Opening

"Your brother just had a colonoscopy." Luo Quan said with a smile, "In order to challenge himself, he specifically instructed the doctor not to use anesthesia."

"Is a colonoscopy inserting a tube from there and then going up the flow?" Angela said while frowning, just describing it, she could feel what it was like when doing it.

"Then brother, you are too brave." Angela didn't dare to think about it, and gave Gao Liang a thumbs up.

Gao Liang waved his hand: "Haha, it's just a small scene. I just think that anesthesia will affect my smart and clever brain. Children are not recommended to imitate."

"But you are not much older than me." Angela tried hard to endure, looking at Gao Liang who was pretending to speak in an adult tone.

"Being older by one day is still your brother."

After the two bickered for a while, Luo Quan and Angela talked about business.

The three's new movie is about to start filming next month. The roles need to be pondered more. After the real filming starts, there won't be so much time to study.

Although Angela has read quite a lot of books about acting during this period and summarized quite a lot of experience, she has never really filmed a movie after all, and everything is still in the stage of talking on paper.

So Luo Quan prepared to take time to make an appointment with her, let her perform a segment, and see the effect.

Angela was actually quite excited after hearing this, feeling that this was like a mock exam before the final exam, which was a test of her learning situation.

If she could get an excellent evaluation, she would definitely have a sense of achievement.

As for failing, to be honest, Angela had never thought about this aspect at all. She had never failed any subject since she was a child.

After making an appointment, Luo Quan asked about Angela's recent situation, mainly about school. After all, Columbia University, where Angela is studying, is also a world-famous school, and the pressure on studies is definitely not small. I don't know if filming a movie will affect Angela's normal study.

And Angela told her that the credits for the four years of university had long been completed. Now she is considering whether to take a few more subjects, so as not to be too bored in the remaining time.

Okay, it seems that the Albert family's IQ is very high, and they are all top students.

Hanging up the video, Luo Quan looked at Gao Liang next to her. The KFC takeaway he just ordered arrived, and he was eating a family bucket alone.

"Gao Liang, my sister and I have already graduated from university without worry. What is your situation?" Luo Quan asked in a deep voice.

Speaking of which, Gao Liang's school is the best of the three, Harvard. After graduation, his academic qualifications are the most presentable. However, it seems that Gao Liang does not attach much importance to this diploma. Every time he waits until the final exam, he knows how to work hard.

"It's fine if I can pass, why think so much." Gao Liang put on gloves and buried his head to take out all the food in the custom family bucket. Now his attention is on the food.

Orleans-style whole chicken, large fries, steak burger, fried chicken legs, iced Coke, and also gave two egg tarts and three fried onion rings.

"Are you planning to eat alone?" Luo Quan looked at so much food and asked with glowing eyes.

The fragrance of fried food poured into her nasal cavity. This is a taste that most people cannot refuse. Although it is not healthy enough, it can definitely satisfy the appetite.

"You didn't ask." Gao Liang was very aggrieved, and then turned out another pair of gloves and threw them to his sister, "By the way, weren't you losing weight before? You dare to touch this kind of junk food?"

"Why don't I dare to touch it?" Luo Quan put on gloves leisurely, "I won't lose this weight in the future. Being happy is what I am pursuing now."

As she said, Luo Quan pulled the leg of the Orleans roast chicken, tore it off, and regardless of its hot temperature, stuffed it directly into her mouth.

Seeing this, Gao Liang was not to be outdone, and began to eat and drink.

Not long after, a family bucket was wiped out by the sister and brother, leaving only the chicken bones that were gnawed clean and more than half of the Coke left.

Although Luo Quan decided to indulge, she still didn't overeat, and stopped after eating eight points full. The rest was solved by Gao Liang alone.

Boys' appetite is always better than girls', not to mention Gao Liang's appetite is usually large.

Fried food is cool to eat, but it still can't be eaten too much. Getting fat is one aspect, and the main thing is that it is not conducive to physical health.

After resting in New York for three days, Luo Quan finally reopened the livestream and started work that was not work.

Originally, according to the plan, she planned to play for two more days, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, because the annual S tournament started.

As the most important competition in League of Legends, the S tournament is the most exciting time for summoners all over the world. Bilibili has long been urging her to livestream to explain the game.

Today the group stage started. It was played at night in Korea, and Luo Quan got up early.

"S Tournament Explanation!"

Luo Quan set the title of the livestream room, and then turned on the camera.

"Good evening, Luo Bao."

"It should be good morning, it's just dawn in New York."

"I knew you wouldn't miss it."

"Selling popcorn and iced Coke in the front row."

"By the way, didn't I hear that Luo Quan is going to perform at the S tournament site? Why is there still time to livestream in the United States?"

"Performing on stage during the finals, it's still early."

"I don't know how many LPL teams we can see by then."

………………

Once this was mentioned, the atmosphere in the livestream room became heavy.

The most hopeful year has become a meme. Every year is the most hopeful, but every year is the top 4, top 8, top 16. Especially last year, they let the Korean team meet at home.

In fact, don't look at the fierce slogans this year, but in fact, everyone has no bottom in their hearts, just like the national football team, losing too much, really don't know how to believe and brag.

However, everyone is still willing to give LPL players the greatest support. Many people taking planes to Korea to cheer at the competition site is proof.

"Believe in our players, okay." Luo Quan saw some negative barrages in the livestream room and said: "The champion this time will definitely be ours!"

"Haha, hearing you say that, it's stable."

"Luo Lao Xian doesn't easily cast spells, once cast, it must hit."

"I just said, how can there be only poisonous milk."

"Then what kind of milk is this, antidote milk?"

"Hard to say…………"

"De ah…………"

"Enough, you group of dirty monsters, I represent the holy light to eliminate you!"

"Where did the retribution knight come from?"

……………………

The barrage continued to open the group demon dance mode, and Luo Quan was too lazy to be serious, but focused her attention on the game.

The first game of the group stage has started, with LPL's No. 1 seed GNR team against the North American division's No. 2 seed Sinai team, which can be considered the duel between the two strongest teams in this group.

Speaking of which, GNR's lottery luck this time is quite good. The teams in the same group are one No. 2 seed from the perennial top 16 division, another from Vietnam, and one from the CIS division, none of which are strong.

Judging from the strength shown by GNR in the summer finals before, it is no suspense to win all six games and qualify first in the group.

After all, this time GNR is aiming for the S8 global championship. If predicted before the game, it must be more optimistic.

However, after the game started, the situation was somewhat unexpected.

The lineup chosen by GNR is still a mid-bottom development hero, and the top laner is a big meat tool man. This is also the lineup that GNR is best at besides four-protect-one.

But this lineup, which should have been very proficient, played quite awkwardly in the ten minutes after the game started. Except for the bottom lane, the mid-top-jungle had been suppressed by the opposite side, and the economic gap once reached 1,500.

Fortunately, GNR team's hard strength was strong enough. At 15 minutes, they finally caught a mistake by the Sinai team and directly played a wave of small group destruction on the opposite side. The economic gap and the situation were instantly reversed.

Subsequently, GNR, whose equipment was supplemented, immediately began a crazy counterattack. Relying on strong operations, they took the big dragon at 25 minutes, and then pushed the Sinai team's crystal in one wave.

The official Chinese commentary of the game began the post-game review: The result is about the same as what we all predicted. GNR won very easily, without giving the opposite side any chance………………

The barrage was cheering, but Luo Quan frowned.

"Does the streamer not like GNR team? Why is she still bitter after winning?"

"Don't say that, the streamer has never shown any like or dislike for any team."

"Running here to bring rhythm?"

"Taking a step back, even if you don't like GNR team, what about it? Do you need to manage it?"

……………………

The barrage was arguing, Luo Quan sighed: "The streamer doesn't dislike GNR team, mainly because she saw some problems, or hidden dangers, and she is a bit worried in her heart."

Because of the rank, many things in the game are not clear to many people. Everyone is cheering for victory, and victory can always cover up all problems.

"The version used in the S tournament has strengthened many warriors and high-burst mage heroes, so in terms of BP, it is obviously to emphasize the linkage of top-mid-jungle and line advantage.

Simply put, you must get an advantage in the early stage of this version, and if you get an advantage, it will be much simpler if you want to, but GNR team's BP is too conservative, still the old set, the heroes given to the players are either tool men or late-stage heroes who eat development. Playing like this is definitely not going to work."

"Sinai was so good in the early stage, didn't it not last long?"

"Yes, one mistake and it's gone, which shows that this advantage is completely foam."

"Changing the style is forget it, GNR is not that kind of team that attacks fiercely in the early stage."

………………

"It's different." Luo Quan shook her head, "The strength of the opponent encountered this time is not particularly strong, so it can be turned over, but if you encounter a strong team, it is estimated that it will not be easy to fight."

Luo Quan seriously expressed the problems that GNR team might face, but most of the audience thought that Luo Quan was worrying about nothing.

Finding problems after losing is almost fine, finding problems after winning is not completely picking bones in an egg?

Luo Quan knew that just talking would definitely be useless, and could only let the facts prove it.

Unfortunately, GNR team seemed to have failed to escape the destined script. This S tournament is probably going to be slow.

In Luo Quan's secret sigh, LPL's I game team and Guodian also defeated their opponents one after another. On the first day of the group stage, they won three games and directly made a good start.

Such excellent results immediately rushed to the hot search, and e-sports fans were cheering for the good momentum shown by LPL.

However, Tieba was discussing Luo Quan's appearance after GNR's victory during the livestream.

At this time, GNR team was in the limelight, and all platforms had a large number of fans, many of whom were relatively extreme. If anyone dared to say a little bad thing about GNR team, they would immediately attack in groups. The entire e-sports circle had no forces that could compete with it.

Fortunately, Luo Quan clarified during the livestream very quickly, and conducted a wave of analysis with reason and evidence, which did not let GNR's fans take the opportunity to make trouble.

But even if Luo Quan really said something bad, it is estimated that GNR fans would not dare to really do anything.

Comparing the number of fans, Luo Quan has never been afraid of anyone, and in most cases, she really doesn't need her fans to solve problems. Luo Quan can handle it alone.

In short, this analysis by Luo Quan was regarded by Tieba brothers as a typical worry about nothing, and the understanding of the Canyon King was once again exploded by the silver and gold players.

However, it is not that there are no high-rank players in Tieba, but they don't have as large a fan base as Luo Quan. If they dare to speak at this time, they will definitely be rushed to pieces by GNR fans.

So, seeing everyone laughing, these high-rank players also laughed along.

As a result, the next day, after a 40-minute battle, GNR lost to a nameless team in the CIS division, and also became the first LPL team to lose a game in this tournament.

However, because GNR team performed too strongly before, fans all held quite high confidence in it, and did not worry about the problems exposed by the team at all.

And facing the wild card team, GNR team won, and the fans' enthusiasm for boasting rose again.

Subsequently, the group stage reached the fourth day. Every team in the group had to play three more games, and they had to finish in one day.

GNR lost one game as soon as it came up, and the second game was won quite difficultly.

When the time came to the evening, GNR team had to compete with Sinai team for the first place in the group, and if anyone lost, they would have to play a life-and-death battle for qualification with the team in the CIS division.

The situation developed like this, which can be said to be completely beyond the expectations of all fans and even e-sports enthusiasts.

GNR team, which had been invincible for a year, had actually lost two games in the S tournament, and judging from the start of the game, this battle for the top of the group between GNR and Sinai replicated the plot of the first round.

Sinai team occupied a considerable advantage in the early stage, and the fatal thing is that GNR's lineup is not a strong lineup in the late stage.

However, it can only be said that a camel is dead and bigger than a horse. Even if GNR team has already chosen heroes against the version, it still found an opportunity in the desperate situation, played a miracle group, and destroyed the Sinai team.

Amidst the cheering of the two streamers, GNR won the first place in the group and entered the top 8.

Everyone was celebrating, but Luo Quan knew that GNR's tragic script was probably unavoidable.
