Chapter 302: Team God, Apollo!

“Now it’s time for us to invite the champions of the LPL, Team Daemons, to the stage. Please welcome Hades, Charon, Belial, Mephistopheles, and Asmodai!”

The cheering suddenly got louder and the crowd especially went wild when Hades who was looking regal in black and green clothing stepped onto the stage.

As the top E-sports player in the country, Hades had countless fans. He didn’t have the elegance of Bai Feng, the incredible love that Blood Eagle received from fans, or Xiao Fang’s lovable wild nature. But he was undoubtedly the strongest player in all of LOL!

The five members of Team Daemons stood in a row, facing the audience of almost five thousand people in front of them.

“Hades! Hades! Hades!”

Dark and standing tall, Hades had mid-length hair with black eyes that sparkled. He was dressed stylishly, looking cool with the logo of Team Daemons printed on his clothes. His vibe and aura made people feel like he was hard to approach.

It was obvious that even if Hades didn’t actively interact with the crowd or appear regularly in the media, his absolute strength had won the admiration of all the LOL enthusiasts.

Standing on the stage, in front of his team and under the huge screen, with thousands of people watching, there was no doubt that he definitely deserved the title of LOL king!

“And next, let us welcome the professional team from Europe—Team FAN!”

Cheers resounded through the hall once again and everyone turned their attention to the stage as a youth with a sharp nose and brown hair walked out. He had mesmerizing ocean-blue eyes, as expected of a handsome French guy.

The host introduced him with a booming voice. “Here’s the captain of Team FAN whose name represents the sun: Apollo!”

The development of LOL within China was slower than other countries, so many people would often watch videos of foreign teams in order to learn more advanced tactics. Apollo was one of the more favoured foreign players for a very simple reason. It was because every champion he played could only be described as unpredictable.

His Kassadin video had made waves in various countries, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Kassadin was made for Apollo. At all the world competitions, any team going up against Team FAN would definitely ban Kassadin!

The six members of Team FAN were all on stage, including their fat coach who had a big nose. They shook hands with Team Daemons, indicating that the first match was a friendly one.

However, everyone could see that when Apollo, the captain of Team FAN and Asmodai, the captain of Team Daemons shook hands, they held on for a long period of time.

Apollo was often said to be very belligerent and Asmodai’s reputation as one of the top ten most dangerous players was common knowledge not only locally, but overseas too.

They both played Mid and had an in-depth understanding of the champion Kassadin. As the two world-tier Mid players shook hands, it was inevitable that there would be sparks flying in the air.

It seemed that this exhibition match would not be so simple after all!

***

As Asmodai and Apollo were shaking hands, four members of Team Skycrown, namely Da Luo, Lin Dong, Zhou Yan, and Yu Luocheng were reeling in shock backstage.

Apollo!

This guy…

How was it possible that he had entered the world of LOL too?!

“Boss, how can this be?!” stuttered Lin Dong.

Yu Luocheng just stood there with a strange expression on his face as he watched the stage without a word.

Apollo… how could Yu Luocheng ever forget him?

The entirety of Team Wings would never forget that name, because he was one of the members of the team that defeated them at the competition in England!

He was a supreme god player in DOTA, with highly impressive skills and bone-chilling intelligence in controlling the game!

Could it be that Team FAN was actually the team that defeated them in the past? That very same England team that had left a huge scar in the hearts of the Team Wings members?

Yu Luocheng took a closer look at the other five members of the team.

No, everyone else was a stranger except for Apollo!

Could it be that the original King had been disbanded to start marching into LOL?

***

This shocking news hit the four members of Team Skycrown like a hurricane!

That particular scene of their defeat had haunted their dreams countless times. The unforgettable moment when their long-standing string of victories were soundly crushed during that England competition.

In the three years since that time, the four of them had gradually started to move on and forget that defeat. But today, they actually saw one of the people who was responsible for giving them that hellish experience that forever cast a shadow over their career.

Apollo!

This guy had soundly trounced Team Wings who were at their peak during the England competition!

And now he appeared as a top LOL player. Did that mean that Team God had also stepped into the domain of LOL? Team Wings were all too familiar with the names of the five members of Team God.

Apollo from Team FAN was also a member of Team God, and what’s more his strength was so great to the point that people would say he was one of the best professional players!

A chilling feeling of dread spread throughout the four members of Team Skycrown…

“I like your country China very much, and because my great-grandmother stayed here for quite a while, I can also speak Chinese. Although, my pronunciation possibly leaves much to be desired,” said Apollo to Hades, maintaining a frivolous smile on his face.

Hades merely nodded his head in acknowledgement.

“I’ve heard many great things about the teams of China, and there’s only one player I admire right now. I hope you don’t disappoint me,” continued Apollo.

Hades replied softly. “I’m not the only one.”

“If you’re talking about those whom we’ve defeated before, then it can’t be helped. Unfortunately, I heard that they’ve disbanded,” replied Apollo with a tinge of disappointment tainting his voice.

“They didn’t,” said Hades firmly.

Hades had heard about Team Skycrown from Asmodai. Truth be told, he would like nothing more than to have an all-out heart-warming battle against Team Wings again. It was unfortunate that they needed time to once again hone their skills.

“Haha! Three years ago, I felt apologetic towards the China team that had a chance of claiming the championship. We shouldn’t have used such a strong team to go against them after they tried so hard to step foot into the league of the strongest teams,” said Apollo, still smiling.

“It is said that the French are very courteous people but it doesn’t seem like it at all. Don’t worry, at this year’s S International League, if Team FAN meets Team Daemons, I will return these words back to you with my apologies,” retorted Hades, his expression still aloof and bored.

“I guess it can’t be helped then, today we will test the waters. To use one of your martial arts terms: come on and hit me with your taichi. I’m just afraid that you can’t help but be forceful, and in that case we won’t show any mercy either.” Apollo laughed as he said that, his ocean-blue eyes sparkling with extreme confidence.

“You talk too much.”

“I guess the joke’s on me, haha. I really like your attitude.”
