Free Extra 3: Champion Skin!
Gu Xing complained in a low voice while flipping spring rolls in the oil pan out of boredom.
"Hey, I just asked the cook to come over and cook New Year's Eve dinner. Do you have to freeze your hands?"
Gu's mother was cooking beef on the stove next to her. At this time, she turned back and said, "It's not like we don't have time. Why are we spending so much money?"
"When you come back from vacation, you will know how to play games all day long, even if you are not broadcasting. I would like to find something for you to do..."
Gu Xing sighed helplessly in the dark, wanting to rub his sore shoulders, but was afraid his hands would be oily.
"Guan Shan," he called his girlfriend with a pleasant look, "come here and press it twice for me."
Shen Guanshan had just wrapped a plate of spring rolls. When he heard this, he quickly went to the faucet to wash his hands, dried them carefully and then came over to knead Gu Xing's shoulders.
"Are you feeling better?" Her attitude was concerned, her eyes always paying attention to her boyfriend's expression, for fear that there might be something wrong with her strength.
Gu Xing stood there for half the afternoon, and when his girlfriend squeezed him like this, he felt the warmth and strength coming from Shen Guanshan's fingertips, and the fatigue immediately disappeared.
"I feel good!" He squinted his eyes and enjoyed it.
Shen Guanshan was not a talkative person. When he saw his boyfriend relaxed, he pursed his lips and chuckled.
Gu Pan, who was responsible for arranging the cold dishes, had just finished his work. He was also standing beside him with his hands on his hips. He couldn't stand the greasy and crooked look of his brother and sister-in-law, so he pretended to retching twice.
"What are you doing, pregnant?" Gu Xing teased habitually.
Father Gu frowned, "Don't make such a joke."
When Gu Pan saw someone supporting him, he immediately smiled and asked his friend, "Guan Shan, have you decided where to study as a graduate student?"
After the second year of junior high school, I will enter the second half of my junior year. It is time to prepare for the next stage of study and life.
"I want to go to UCB to study statistics," Shen Guanshan meticulously rubbed her boyfriend's shoulders, "You don't need a PhD, a Master is enough."
If you want to get involved in the academic circle, a PhD is a must. However, Shen Guanshan realized early on that his talent was limited and not suitable for in-depth research. It would be good to get a one-year Master's degree to get a job.
"This major is very famous..." Gu Pan sighed, "But with your grades, it's not that difficult to apply."
Shen Guanshan's so-called mathematical talent is limited, it depends on who he is compared with.
If compared with those famous scholars and professors, her talent is indeed average; but if the comparison object were ordinary classmates in the Department of Mathematics of Peking University, then they would have to call her Shen Julao.
As of the first half of his junior year, Shen Guanshan's GPA was as high as 3.89. Looking at the entire lunatic asylum, he was among the best!
Then find a professor to get a letter of recommendation, and you're basically guaranteed.
"Should I go with you then?" Gu Xing turned around and asked, "It's only one year anyway, so I think it's a long vacation."
Shen Guanshan nodded vigorously.
Gu Pan stabbed him mercilessly at the side, "That's really disgusting. When Guan Shan graduated from the undergraduate program, you should have just finished your sophomore year, why don't you want to travel?"
"... Then can't I apply to go out for exchange?" Gu Xing retorted with his neck stiffened.
The brother and sister started playing and quarreling again, and there was a lot of fun in the kitchen.
Shen Guanshan looked at the harmonious atmosphere of the Gu family, and the curve of his mouth became more and more obvious.
She had always envied the Gu family's atmosphere since she had lacked parental care since she was a child, and now she has become one of them.
Ningbo’s New Year’s Eve dinner has a lot of cold dishes, and everyone is not too busy. It will be finished by 7 p.m.
At this time, there was already a sporadic sound of firecrackers outside the house. The Zhaobaoshan street where the Gu family was located only restricted the setting off, and firecrackers could still be set off in some areas.
The family stood by the window and watched the fireworks for a while, then sat down and toasted to celebrate New Year's Eve.
Gu Xing first picked up a chopstick to taste the fried spring rolls he had fried. It was stuffed with shepherd's purse, winter bamboo shoots and dried fragrant spices. It was delicious and refreshing.
"As expected of me," he said quite narcissistically, "the explosion was just right!"
After tasting it, Shen Guanshan nodded in agreement, "Yes... your craftsmanship is good!"
She also gave a thumbs up.
"By the way, when will your champion skin be released?" Gu Pan brought the far away red crab to Shen Guanshan and asked Gu Xing casually.
"Usually we finish the spring games." Gu Xing judged based on past experience.
I look forward to it with envy.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I'll get another tens of millions while lying down..."
Although she has a large proportion of shares in E+, the website is booming and its valuation continues to increase.
But it's very difficult to cash out. Besides, tens of millions of RMB is not a small number by any means. Now Gu Pan can only feel envious and jealous.
"What does lying down mean?" Gu Xing was very dissatisfied with his sister's statement, "I earned my fortune through hard work?"
"If we don't win the championship, where will Laili's skin be?"
At this time, Gu Xing didn't know that even if he didn't win the world championship, players would still have skin.
"It's not like me. After paying back your money, I still have to be careful when buying a second-hand car..." Gu Pan sighed softly.
The GLS was lent to her by Gu Xing, who didn't have a driver's license. Now that she has retired, her brother took some time to pull out the license, so naturally he had to drive it himself.
Gu Pan has been thinking about buying a better car recently. After all, he has to show off his appearance when doing business, but he is not willing to buy one that is too expensive and takes on too many loans, so he can only choose from the second-hand market.
"How about you drive mine?" Shen Guanshan, who had been working silently, asked to help, "I'm usually at school and don't need a car."
Gu Xing took over the Mercedes-Benz endorsement during MSI last year. The manufacturer gave an AMG GT53 as a gift, and he turned around and handed it to his girlfriend.
But Shen Guanshan really doesn't need it.
"Come on, that's a sports car. It wouldn't be cool for me to drive it..." Gu Pan waved her hand and refused.
Gu Xingle chuckled, "Gu Mufen, just don't buy your second-hand car from us anyway. Don't take chances and just generalize when you see a few good car dealers and think they are all good."< br>
Everyone at the table laughed out loud.
It can only be said that everyone understands it. The local second-hand car dealers in Ningbo are famous throughout the country.
In the end, Gu Pan went to the Imperial Capital after the year, picked up a second-hand E300, and continued to travel between Peking University and E+.
Shen Guanshan only occasionally went to E+ to help, and the rest of the time was busy preparing for the application season.
The two women were so busy that they never touched the ground. In comparison, Gu Xing's life was extremely relaxing and comfortable.
He doesn't have any pressure to go to higher education. As long as he gets the dual certificates, he will be successful!
Gu Xing rented a villa in Shangri Garden next to Fudan's Handan campus. The price in the old community is not expensive. If you buy it in full, it doesn't even cost 20 million, and the rent will be even cheaper.
If there were no classes, Gu Xing would stay in his house and play games live or commentate on games as a second-line commentator, living a happy life.
Just as he expected when he went to watch the VG game last time, the team had a bumpy journey throughout the Spring Split. The process was full of ups and downs, and the old fans accumulated during PUA's three consecutive championships began to appear frequently.
At the end of the regular season, VG only ended with 12 wins and 5 losses, ranking fifth in the league due to a small points disadvantage, which was far from meeting the fans' pre-game expectations!
Although relying on the double C strength of Jack and Chaowei, VG regained its momentum in the playoffs and was still able to reach the spring finals, but it could only go so far.
Facing IG, the runner-up in last year's global finals, they were no match for the Extreme Team after losing Smeb, Gu Xing, Kuro and Duan Deliang!
Especially the top laner 369, when facing the peak TheShy, he was almost beaten to the point of self-isolation on the spot!
1:3, VG failed to take the last step to the MSI stage after all!
The proud members of IG won the first Silver Dragon Cup in team history. Gao Zhenning even made wild remarks in the post-match interview, claiming, "After Virtue retires, no one can stop us from winning the cup. IG's goal this year is a one-year Grand Slam"!
It has to be said that Gao Zhenning is good at leading the rhythm.
Gu Xing started broadcasting again, and the live broadcast room was filled with comments about Prince Ning.
"What do I think of Prince Ning?" Gu Xing answered the barrage question with a smile, "It's normal to be a little crazy. He has already won the championship, why don't you let him say some bold words?"
"You are too harsh!"
It’s just that there are many VG remnants in the live broadcast room hugging the star to keep warm.
【彳亍, the team is in danger and returns quickly! 】
[Don’t worry about your B-number score, come back quickly to save VG, woo woo woo]
[Brother Xing, this family would be broken up without you! 】
Of course, more viewers are pure personal fans of Gu Xing. This group of people doesn't care what Gu Xing does. Anyway, they will stick around as soon as the show starts, focusing on being a companion.
Now seeing VG team fans so anxious that they are about to break the defense, they can't help but sneer at them.
[Those who are fans of VG, get out of here right now. Our brother Wei and VG have no connection whatsoever except for their shares! 】
[Having won three S crowns and five Silver Dragon Cups, some team fans still want to make a comeback? People can’t enjoy life]
[That group of people eat too much delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, and they can't stand even a meal of bran-flavored vegetables every once in a while. This VG can win the runner-up in the spring competition, which is considered a successful completion of the mission! 】
[Haha, I’ve already said it before, VG doesn’t have the bullshit, the super blue cat or Jack, they’re all just trying to mess with the situation! 】
Gu Xing saw the fans from both sides fighting fiercely and hurriedly broke up the fight, "Everyone, please stop arguing. I still hold the title of jungle coach. How can I say it has nothing to do with VG..."
"But some things cannot be rushed. In short, don't question, believe first!" Gu Xing showed a bright and contagious smile, "VG's new people can always grow up!"
"Today's live broadcast is mainly about champion skin previews. You can watch it with me." He boarded YY excitedly, entered the voice channel, and took another look at the barrage. "Have I seen it? No, I only saw the last one." A draft of the drawing, not even the color, and I haven’t touched it since I made suggestions for revisions.”
Gu Xing was so excited that he rubbed his hands together. A prompt came from the audio room, and his teammates who won the championship together last year crowded in.
"Hey, hey, hey?" Jack shouted loudly, "Brother, I want you to die!"
Duan Deliang is on vacation in his hometown villa in Jining at this time. He has no need to buy a microphone for live broadcast. Now it sounds a bit like Mao Zi's style, and the sound of electricity is non-stop.
"Yu Wenbo, didn't you claim that you were going to take the Blue Cat and get another S crown to give us a face?" He opened the wound and joked, "Why did you send it just after the spring game?"
< br>
Jack became angry and said, "Stop barking!"
"It's only been half a season, why don't you open the champagne in advance?"
Yu Wenbo tried his best to defend himself, "What does that idiom say... keep a low profile and bide your time! We deliberately didn't win the spring game to avoid the designer's sword. Do you understand?"
Duan Deliang smiled and said something perfunctory.
"What are Maibo and Ruixing doing recently?" Gu Xing asked curiously.
When Kuro answered the question about his jungler, his voice could not stop rising. "I discussed it with Maibo and planned to open a night-time fried chicken restaurant in Seoul... The first store will be in the GEN and T1 buildings. Beside, let’s blast these players!”
The bases of these two top LCK clubs are not far from each other, and training usually ends late. Haidilao is usually the only option for them to go out for late-night snacks. This is one of the reasons why LCK players love this hot pot restaurant.
Kuro seized on this pain point and decided to open a fried chicken restaurant to grab Haidilao's business.
"Make money, make money," Smeb said happily. "When I think of Sang Hyuk giving me money in the future, I feel so beautiful..."
"Maybe he alone can make the fried chicken restaurant recover its profits quickly?"
"You are thinking too much," Gu Xing poured cold water on him. "He will most likely only buy one box and then go back and share it with his teammates."
YY’s voice echoed with laughter from everyone.
Chaowei couldn't participate in the topic of his brothers, he just bared his tiger teeth and showed a shy smile.
"Watch the preview video, hurry up!" Smeb geared up, "I want to see what my fists will do to my skin!"
Everyone adjusted the timeline and clicked on the promotional video produced by Riot Games.
The first one to appear was the upper unit.
"Electric energy surges!"
A clear and powerful shout came, and Jace, holding a heavy cannon, appeared in everyone's sight.
The Piltover Second Battalion Commander was wearing a black mecha. The light armor did not appear too heavy, and did not lose Jace's own dexterity and agility.
The Mercury Cannon in his hand is also pitch black. Only when switching forms, the tip will appear dark red!
"Wow, I like this style!" Smeb, as a veteran Jace player, knew at a glance that it felt great.
During the return action, part of the mecha around Jace's neck extended to cover his cheek, and scenes of electronic screens appeared in front of him, showing scenes of Smeb's repeated setbacks in the competition.
Jace picked up the heavy cannon and fired several cannons at extremely fast speeds, shattering the screen one by one until a Summoner's Trophy finally dropped!
"I feel like Riot wants to make the champion skin black this year..." Gu Xingneng roughly understood Riot's thinking.
"In this Ganges River," Jack agreed deeply, "there wasn't a silver scale series last year. It's hard to make another set of skin with a whiter tone..."
The VG team uniform once had a version with black as the main color, which is in line with the Riot design.
Next it's Kuro's turn.
After Li Ruixing won the championship last year, the hero he decided with the designer was Galio.
Although VG's first champion mid laner Hou Ye had chosen this hero, Kuro didn't want to have to use Easyhoon's skin every time he used his signature hero, and still wanted to make a new one.
Perhaps it was based on this that Riot Games set this year's champion skin to black - after all, the Marquis's Galio skin was a silver wind dragon.
Make a black dragon and come out, just right to make a distinction!
In the preview video, Galio is also wearing a black mecha, but it is obviously much thicker than Jace.
Looks very safe!
When Galio wields Q [War Wind], strong wind will be ejected from the mecha devices on the palms of his left and right hands; when the hero performs the ultimate move, the jet equipment under his feet will help Galio fly high into the sky with a strong kick, and the VG icon will be removed when he lands. As an anchor point, there is also a special effect of the ground being shattered!
As for the recall action, it was set after seeking Kuro's opinion.
Galio danced in front of the mirror, and suddenly his reflection in the mirror turned into a giant statue of justice that looked like a silver dragon!
The two sides looked at each other in confusion, and finally dug into their backpacks with tacit agreement and pulled out a Summoner's Trophy!
The two Galios looked at each other again, holding their respective trophies and fluttering their wings!
"How's it going?" Kuro's face turned red as he begged for praise, "This is my carefully planned move back to the city!"
[Buy, buy, buy, choose a duplicate Galio and actually be able to create a new life? 】
[This B skin is just like my Light Star Goddess/Dark Star Queen. It is considered a twin skin, right? Can there be a linkage? 】
[Gui Gui Rui Xing is so determined, he didn’t forget to Cue the Marquis]
【Can you fast forward to 彳亍? Riot’s treatment for Goat must be very high, right? 】
[Needless to say? The preview video jumps directly from the top laner to the mid laner. I can only say that I understand everything, and I have to work hard! 】
Next it's Chaowei's turn.
Syndra was wearing a thin black form-fitting mecha, and her graceful curves were clearly visible.
The special effects design of the ball girl skill set is lackluster - there is really nothing new about the skills of this Diudiu monster.
However, Riot has put a lot of effort into returning to the city.
A Summoner's Trophy appeared in front of Syndra, and she originally wanted to drag it up with W [Driving Telekinesis].
However, the release of my own skills is very crooked, and I can't touch the trophy at all.
But Syndra never gave up and kept trying again and again.
After failing several times with her skills, the ball girl finally made a precise hit at the last moment before the end of the recall time. She used her telekinesis to drag the trophy into her hands and appreciate it carefully!
"Bushgomen," Jack said in a loud voice, "Does this imply that Blue Cat, your Syndra is not proficient enough?"
"It's hard work that can make up for weakness," Duan Deliang corrected, "Blue Cat's Syndra was so terrible that it didn't dare to be chosen in the finals!"
Chaowei smiled broadly.
He's pretty happy with his first champion skin.
As for the bottom lane duo, they appear together.
The tauren is covered in black mecha, with only scarlet eyes exposed from all over his body. When the WQ 2nd Company moves forward, the VG icon will appear at the landing point!
And the next moment, a figure as black as ink flew over!
Kai'Sa R [Hunter Instinct] flew over, with a visible afterimage behind her, releasing countless Icathian rainstorms from the shoulder armor, and missiles floated in the air and hit the opponent!
The tauren roared and activated his ultimate move, and the mecha entered its second form. When the whole body expanded, it looked thick and solid!
The two started the return to the city together.
The tauren finally lost his ferocious appearance and sat down on the ground to rest. He took out two summoner trophies from under his body and looked at them.
Ka'Sa, on the other hand, carried the trophy around the court on her shoulders and then raised it high above her head.
Then a strong suction force emerged from the air, sucking the trophy in Kai'Sa's hand into the wormhole.
The other end of the wormhole opened above the tauren's head, and the Summoner's Trophy hit the old ox, smashing Alistar to pieces!
The tauren looked at the three summoner trophies in his hands at a loss.
"Handsome!" Jack couldn't help but praise, "Old Duan and our pair of skins are really good!"
"It's quite acceptable," Duan Deliang couldn't help laughing, thinking that the description of the Triple Crown given to him by Riot Games was quite interesting, "And the bull head is so handsome, this mecha scent is confusing!"
"That's why I feel like this move back to the city is like stealing the championship trophy from my hand..." Jack muttered, "Is the fist hinting at someone?"
It wasn't until Duan Deliang coughed twice unnaturally that he changed the subject.
"Lao Gu's skin is coming!"
Jack looked forward to it.
Gu Xing was also full of expectations.
Under the gaze of everyone, a black epee that looked like a mecha style appeared in front of everyone!
The camera followed the heavy sword upwards and saw the sword demon who was as huge as a giant!
It has to be said that the character model design of Aatrox is naturally made to wear mecha.
The sword demon is covered with armor. At first glance, the model looks a bit like the black color of the Tyrant Sword Demon, but if you look closely, you will find many differences.
The energy core on the chest has become the VG team logo, and the armor texture is much more delicate than that of Tyrant Sword Demon. It can be seen that the fist's technological advancement in recent years has given Aatrox a sense of oppression all over his body.
Every time the champion skin Sword Demon casts his Q skill, a golden star will light up above the energy core VG team logo!
Until the last heavy blow fell, three golden stars appeared completely on the sword demon's armor!
W [Evil Fire Beam Chain] will display the VG team logo on the surface.
The moment R【达咩】 is turned on, a rough electronic sound fills your ears!
"I'm going to blanch, what the hell is this?" Jack was startled.
"Wait..." Kuro dragged the progress bar back and listened to the sound effect of Sword Demon turning up again.
His eyes became brighter and brighter, "Isn't this the background sound of the chorus of "Rise"!"
After being reminded by Li Ruixing, Gu Xing suddenly realized, "Don't tell me...it seems to be the sound of the theme song!"
It is the theme song for each year, dedicated to the champion of the previous year.
But there is no sense of violation when used on Gu Xing.
Because he won three consecutive championships, it is not wrong to say that "Rise" was given to Gu Xing.
After all, he is the protagonist in the MV!
During the return to the city, accompanied by the increasingly exciting and powerful sound effects of "Rise", Aatrox inserted his heavy sword into the peak of a mountain, snatched away the Summoner's Trophy hanging on it, and used it as a springboard. Rush to the second mountain with high morale!
Next, the sword demon's movement to the summit was deliberately slowed down to show Aatrox's fatigue.
Repeating the above actions until reaching the third mountain peak, when Sword Demon touched the Summoner's Trophy again, Aatrox seemed to have lost interest in the trophy and threw it aside.
But the three Summoner Trophies gathered together emitted an extremely dazzling light!
The sword demon gave a ferocious laugh, as if he had discovered something interesting, and he strode into the bright light with his heavy sword.
When the light dissipated, the three trophies were neatly gathered on the mountain.
And behind the mountains, there stood a giant sword demon statue that was as big as the top of the mountain!
Aatrox slashed hard with his heavy sword in hand, acting as the guardian of the trophy, and kept doing this until he returned to the fountain!
"Ah..." Gu Xing was filled with emotion, "It matches what I said."
When he issued his retirement statement, he said, "Becoming a professional player means chasing the top of the mountain at first, until you become the highest mountain."
Riot Games seems to be using its own way to interpret this sentence in the game.
Gu Xing turned around to see the barrage reaction.
[Damn, what a handsome sword demon! 】
[Really three crowns to become a god? It's so spicy! 】
[Isn’t this a hit? I didn’t expect that playing Q would add stars. The design of Riot is too crazy]
[The final return to the city is interesting, it just reflects Biao’s career]
[From the beginning, he was very ambitious, but later he simply retired after winning the pot and became the patron saint of GOAT! 】
[Wai Ri, the design of inserting the theme song is something, it just matches the Sword Demon Climbing the Mountain! 】
[Buy, buy, buy, brothers are cute! 】
Gu Xing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there were many positive comments from netizens. The champion skin can be regarded as his legacy in the game. If he has not been damaged by fists and can still be widely recognized, he is satisfied!
There should be additional episodes in a few days and will be updated one after another
