THEY DISCUSSED AS THEY WALKED, AND THEN MET MIROTIC AGAIN IN FRONT OF THE ADVENTURER'S GUILD.

WHEN HE SAW TERRY AGAIN, HE STILL LOOKED SO PEACEFUL AS HE HAD MET IN FRONT OF THE SWAMP DUNGEON. Seeing Yang Hai, he also smiled and said hello.

"TIGER," Yang Hai looked at the old man, maybe TIGER is not old, only in his fifties, but in the game world, he is already an old guy. "I didn't expect the end to be a tie."

"Yes," TIGER said what Yang Hai wanted to say, "I didn't expect it to be a draw, you are indeed unexpectedly powerful." ”

Yang Hai wanted to say that it should actually be me who had the upper hand, but he felt that it was too unfair to say so. For gamers, the dust has settled, and the winners and losers are all counted in their hearts, and it would be too ungraceful to care about them at this time.

But I don't want to be reconciled, and I can't defeat this feeling of being a strong enemy......

"We're going to fight again, right?" Yang Hai said excitedly. "Next time, I'll definitely beat you."

"Perhaps. I don't know what to do. TIGER SMILED A LITTLE BITTERLY. The young Yang Hai couldn't see this expression, he thought that TIGER was affirming and admitting.

"Still." TIGER SMILED AND SAID, "NO ONE CAN BEAT ME, LAD. You can defeat me, but you can't defeat me. Come on, you will be more successful than me in the future. ”

If you're familiar......

Yang Hai was slightly stunned for a moment.

WIZARD suddenly felt an uncontrollable anger welling up in his heart, the tiger master was about to retire, so why bother him with these words? HE WANTED TO RUSH FORWARD AND BEAT THE JUNIOR HARD, BUT LOOKING AT TIGER'S CALM EXPRESSION, THIS ANGER THAT HE COULDN'T CONTROL HIMSELF DISAPPEARED.

The saddest thing in the world is the twilight of the hero, even if the king of Nuo Tianwang is the most reluctant, he will inevitably retire; The most helpless thing in the world is that the opponent of your fate is not you, POSEIDON, how can you understand the current mood of the tiger master?

MOREOVER, NO MATTER HOW POWERFUL POSEIDON IS, HE IS ONLY A CHILD AFTER ALL NOW, HE HAS SEEN TOO LITTLE AND KNOWS TOO LITTLE, SO NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF WORDS HE SAYS, HE SHOULD BE FORGIVEN.

MIROTIC AND HIS PARTY WALKED INTO THE ADVENTURER'S HALL FIRST, AND WIZARD HEARD THE FOOTSTEPS OF POSEIDON AND THE SECOND GROUP FOLLOWING BEHIND, AND THOUGHT TO HIMSELF: "ONE DAY, THE CHILD WILL GROW UP, AND HE MAY BECOME A HERO, AND THEN GROW OLD LIKE THE TIGER MASTER." Will there be a child who will stand up at that time and ignite his most glorious glory? ”

WIZARD DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

The most feared thing for professional gamers is fate, and no one dares to say what their future will be.

The tiger master is already old, we are aging, and the younger generations will eventually grow up.

We should inherit the will of our predecessors, forgive and correct the words and deeds of our juniors, and then our juniors will also teach their own juniors by word and deed.

Perhaps this is the common fate of professional gamers.

At this moment, WIZARD suddenly understood that those prestigious predecessors spared no effort to promote future generations, perhaps they were already used to seeing their friends grow old, lamenting the impermanence of fate, and thinking about their own oblivion in the long history of the game, so they can't wait to make the last contribution to their favorite games.

This is the world of professional gamers, and this is our world.

So WIZARD stopped and stood in front of Yang Hai.

“POSEIDON。” WIZARD said sincerely: "Lord Tiger has high hopes for you, although you are still young, but ...... You will be the hope for the future of this gaming industry. Don't let Tiger Master down. And also...... In the future, be cautious in your words and deeds, respect the elderly, maybe your unintentional words will sting others. ”

YANG HAI DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO ANSWER, BUT WIZARD DIDN'T SEEM TO NEED HIM TO ANSWER, AND AFTER SAYING THIS, WIZARD LEFT HIM WITH A MEANINGFUL SMILE AND LEFT.

Yang Hai felt a little heavy in his heart, and a bad premonition haunted him, so that the process of receiving rewards in the Adventurer's Guild passed in a daze.

The two teams brought everything they knew about the Death Swamp and handed it over to the Adventurers' Guild. The guild awarded them the honorary title of Pioneer, and gave each of them 3 points of World Realm prestige, and then announced that the Death Swamp dungeon had entered the daily sequence of the Adventurer's Guild.

Later, Yang Hai realized that it was so difficult to open up the wasteland. They beat this dungeon to belong to the ranks of pioneer dungeons, that is to say, this dungeon was originally not registered in the adventurer's guild, and players need to go to the pioneer by themselves, and then sort out all the information, get through the dungeon, and then register with the adventurer's union. ,

Once registered, this copy will be part of the Adventurer's Guild's daily copy. The guild will send someone to change the projection coordinates to make the copy more difficult.

In other words, in the future, the Death Swamp dungeon will be divided into two difficulties - normal level and hero level.

In other words, they are equivalent to directly challenging the hero-level Death Swamp layer without any equipment base. And after they submit the information, the normal-level Death Swamp will begin to be open to the public. In the normal-level Death Swamp, the skills of the boss are similar to the hero level, but the power will be reduced, the basic attributes of the boss will be weakened, and of course, the equipment dropped will be relatively a notch worse than the hero level.

Then Yang Hai realized why they were so much worse than the GODLIKE team. IT STANDS TO REASON THAT ALTHOUGH GODELIKE THEM ARE POWERFUL, THEY ARE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO THAT EXTENT, THEY HAVE JUST PASSED THE 2ND, AND THE FIRST PASS OF THE ENTIRE DUNGEON OVER THERE HAS COME DOWN. Because the Terran's primary dungeon Ghost Opera House is actually a copy of the daily sequence, that is to say, it is registered with the Adventurer's Guild on the Terran side, so they choose the Ghost Opera House of Normal difficulty to test the waters.

MIROTIC AND DARK DON'T HAVE OPTIONS. They can only hard-hit the Death Swamp in Heroic difficulty.

IN FACT, ON THE SIDE OF THE PUBLIC, THEY STILL TEND TO THINK THAT THIS TIME THE COMPETITION IS POSEIDON HAS A SLIGHT ADVANTAGE.

Because after all, MIROTIC is a professional team.

Moreover, the most critical aspect of the contest of a dungeon FD is two links, one is the FD of the first boss, and the other is the contest of the last boss.

The FD of the first boss means a good start, and it also means the control and influence of both sides on the dungeon.

For example, now, everyone calls the swamp of death ZZ, but in fact, ZZ is the first spelling of the word swamp in Chinese.

Yang Hai is a native of China, so when he referred to Death Swamp as Death Swamp in the strategy, he used the word ZZ, in contrast, in MIROTIC's No. 2 Boss Raiders, TIGER abbreviated Death Swamp as DM. Apparently this is an abbreviation in English.

But the result was completely different.

Now the city communication board is formed in the team, when everyone talks about the Death Swamp, they are all talking about the ZZ10-person group, the ZZ25-person group (the first copy of the Death Swamp does not have a 5-person mode, a 40-person mode and a 100-person mode), few people mention the word DM, and many players have to be stunned for a while before they can react.

Because it was the DARK second group that won the first BOSS, they sent the first strategy, and many things in the first strategy will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

NOW IN THIS CONTEST, BOTH SIDES WON THE LAST BOSS AT THE SAME TIME, AND THE DARK SECOND GROUP WON THE FIRST BOSS ONE STEP AHEAD OF MIROTIC, SO OVERALL, TIGER LOST SLIGHTLY.

But WIZARD's words were still in his ears, and Yang Hai was no longer in the mood to think about victory or defeat.

Quitting the game, I still go to work as usual. He sat in front of the light brain and waited for TERRY to contact him and send him information about the club and the union, but he waited for another news first, which confirmed his bad premonition.

The news was seen by Zhang Ben first.

"Oh my God, Brother Hai." Zhang Ben was stunned and said, "TIGER has announced its retirement. ”

－－－－－－－－－－

Yang Hai will also remember that moment many years later, he was stunned when he heard the news of TIGER's retirement, and then he was filled with all kinds of worries for half the day.

In fact, to be honest, TIGER's retirement has nothing to do with him, but he knows that he can't be indifferent. Because he is not a cold-blooded and selfish person, he is a professional gamer, a person who respects and loves games, so it is impossible not to be shocked by the retirement of TIGER.

Around 10 o'clock in the morning, MIROTIC's press conference began. Because of the IEC confrontation between Yang Hai and TIGER, Zhang Ben, who paid special attention to MIROTIC's movements during this time, also noticed this press conference for the first time.

WHEN ZHANG BEN HEARD "THIS-IS-MY-DECIDE", HE RELIEVED HIMSELF FROM THE SHOCK AND HURRIEDLY CALLED YANG HAI OVER.

Yang Hai watched the rest of the press conference in a daze.

"I know that the gaming world has been a busy time lately. Those who are ready to be famous are preparing to be famous (throne battle), those who are ready to fight hard are preparing to fight hard (referring to Prince William), those who are ready to be sad are preparing to be sad (GODLIKE applied for the title of King of Heaven was rejected by the WGA again), and those who are ready to get married are preparing to get married (NORTH, a well-known predecessor in the game industry, wants to marry his girlfriend who has been in love for more than ten years), and I will not be more lively if there is one more person who is ready to retire. I don't want the news of my retirement to make too many waves, so it's a good time. Colleagues, and my supporters, I'm getting old, and I'm ready to retire. ”,

TIGER's expression was still so peaceful, like a tiger that had lost its strength and was about to fall asleep and never get up again.

“NO！ TIGER，YOU－WISH！ ”

Yang Hai remembered that he was muttering a lot of words at that time, but the only thing he could recall was this sentence.

HE REMEMBERED THE LAST THING HE HAD SAID TO TIGER.

"We're going to fight again, right? At that time, TIGER, I will definitely defeat you. ”

PROBABLY TIGER WAS BLEEDING IN HIS HEART WHEN HE HEARD THIS, RIGHT? But he just smiled wryly.

Even he encouraged and comforted himself as he walked.

What kind of mind is this!

Yang Hai remembers many words of the press conference very clearly, and the only thing he can't remember clearly is his own mood.

Reporter: "TIGER, what prompted you to make such a decision?" Are you old enough to do a lot of things? Or can't stand to draw with a newcomer in the war of the IEC? ”

FACED WITH THIS PROVOCATIVE QUESTION, TIGER SMILED AND SAID, "PLEASE BE CAREFUL, IF YOU ASK SUCH A QUESTION, OTHERS WILL SUSPECT THAT I AM SEXUALLY IMPOTENT." It's unbearable, since you're an entertainment reporter, haven't you seen enough about wins and losses? Every participant has the possibility of winning alive, and that's the game. In that case, what is the unacceptable ending of a tie? ”

Reporter: "Your retirement came a little suddenly, is there some ulterior secrets in it?" ”

TIGER: "Of course, I just didn't expect to be spotted by you so quickly. This secret has been there for more than ten years, and I thought that no one would ever see it. The secret is that I'm old. Even for an IEC, I was too old more than a decade ago. Rujin I realized this and I wanted to rest. ”

The reporter then raised a lot of difficult questions, and TIGER patiently answered them one by one, and then looked at TIGER's sincere and peaceful face, and the reporters were really embarrassed to make it difficult.

Yang Hai didn't eat lunch, he was thinking about his thoughts and sorting out his thoughts, and in the afternoon, he decided to ask TIGER for clarification.

He found the MIROTIC Club's Tianxun number from the inquiry desk and called it.

"Is this the MIROTIC club? …… Uh-huh...... I'm looking for TIGER, could you please — uh, make an appointment? But...... No...... But...... Oh, ...... like this."

Yang Hai looked at the Tianxun number and was stunned for a while.

He could have asked when he went live in the evening, but he didn't want to wait until then.

At this time, a day news came in, and Yang Hai picked it up and saw that it was a video call invitation from Taili Military Industry. He knew that it was someone from TERRY's side who contacted him again, and he should have sent information about E-TYPE and DARK. He reluctantly said to Mai: "If you have something, I'll contact you later." Then he just hung up.

HE HESITATED FOR A MOMENT, THEN DIALED MIROTIC'S NUMBER AGAIN.

"HELLO, I'M LOOKING FOR TIGER - I KNOW I DON'T HAVE AN APPOINTMENT, I'M POSEIDON."

The helpless voice of the staff over there stopped abruptly.

Thousands of miles away, Yang Hai could feel the anger on the other side of the earpiece.

The correspondent did not hesitate, and then pinched the microphone.

Just when Yang Hai was helpless, Tianxun suddenly vibrate.

After he took it, TIGER's familiar voice reached his ears again.

"POSEIDON, IT'S YOU."

"It's me." Through the earpiece, Yang Hai seemed to see the smiling and quiet face: "TIGER, I ......"

"You want to ask me why I retired?"

"I ......" Yang Hai bit his lip: "I want to apologize to you." ”

TIGER WAS SILENT FOR A MOMENT.

"Maybe you're stronger than I thought, kid." TIGER SAID MILDLY, "COME ON." After I retired, there were only one or two old people left in the age of the Heavenly King. The future is still with you young people. ”

"But why do you want to retire?" Yang Hai didn't want to ask, he was afraid that he would hurt TIGER, but in the end he found that it was too difficult to hold some words in his heart.

"I'M OLD, POSEIDON." TIGER SAID LIGHTLY: "I'VE BEEN TIRED ALL MY LIFE, MAYBE IT'S TIME TO RETIRE, PLAY LITTLE GAMES, FIND A WIFE, AND RAISE A CHILD." ”

"You're tired of gaming?" Yang Hai asked angrily.

"No, kid." TIGER SHOOK HIS HEAD: "I'M JUST, I'M JUST TIRED OF SUCH A RIGOROUS AND RIGID LIFE, MAYBE IT'S BETTER TO BE AN ORDINARY PERSON AND PLAY GAMES IN A RELAXED WAY." And, seriously, some high-intensity calculations can be physically and mentally exhausting, and what used to be easy for me to add, subtract, multiply, and divide within a few tens of digits now takes a long time to figure it out. Sometimes, time is unforgiving. Didn't King Nuo also retire after the most reluctance? ”,

"Shall we ...... We ......" Yang Hai started from his heart: "We ...... like this We don't have a chance to compete again? ”

"This ...... Maybe. "TIGER also has some regrets and reluctance." Sorry ......"

I should be sorry for you. If you know that this is your last battle...... I'll treat it like the last battle of my life.

Yang Hai pressed his nose to keep his voice from being distorted.

"But, but I ......"

"Chaowen said, Xi can die." TIGER said calmly, Yang Hai seemed to see TIGER's gentle smiling expression: "In the last contest with yours, I put all my enthusiasm into it, and when I heard the ending of the tie later, I found that there was no joy or sadness." I just feel like I have no regrets, that's all. Maybe that's the game, kid. You have to remember that as long as you don't let the game leave you regretful, no one will be able to beat you. Maybe they can defeat you, but ever, no one can defeat you. ”

"I don't care about that." Yang Hai was silent for a while, and said arrogantly: "TIGER, do you really want to forget it like this?" Don't you have the mental desire to defeat me once? ”

TIGER is silent.

Yang Haizhi said, he said to TIGER's heart.

"Are you going to watch the live broadcast of Skynet in the future, watching how I defeat the enemy step by step, and then the only thing you can do is cheer and bless me below?" Yang Hai asked, "Don't you want to, don't you want to be an opponent with me?" Even if you're old and you can't do it anymore, don't you want to fight alongside me? I don't care if you retire or not, retire or not, aren't I all your destined opponents? In that case, how can you get out of my worldly realm? TIGER, YOU ASK YOURSELF, ARE YOU WILLING? Why don't you stay, become friends with me, or rival me? Why do you choose to leave? ”

"Yes...... Can...... BUT......" TIGER WAS FORCED TO SAY A WORD, HE HELD BACK FOR A LONG TIME BEFORE HE SAID, "IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T PLAY GAMES ANYMORE, I-"

"Then get a war-free card and travel all day?" Yang Hai yelled: "If that's the case, I-"

He didn't know what he was supposed to do with TIGER.

"But what can I do if I stay?" TIGER's voice in Tianxun was a little helpless, "I'm already old. ”

"But true pros can't be beaten." Yang Hai said excitedly: "You said that you just want no regrets." If you leave now, won't you regret it? I...... Won't I regret it? ”

"......" TIGER was silent.

"But what can I do?" TIGER SAID WITH A WRY SMILE: "RETIRED, LEAVING THE FIELD I AM FAMILIAR WITH, I JUST WANT TO GET AWAY FROM ALL THIS FIRST, AND WAIT UNTIL MY MOOD CALMS DOWN, AND THEN MAKE SPECIFIC PLANS." ”

"In that case." Yang Hai suddenly had a brilliant idea in his heart: "In that case, how about your fateful opponent make plans for you?" ”

“…… You? TIGER HESITATED: "WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?" ”

"Can I still sell you?" Yang Hai said angrily: "E-TYPE and DARK are about to be rebuilt." The new board of directors wants me to be the chief IEC, how about you help me? ”

"Going to be an IEC again?" This was TIGER's first reaction.

"Or are you your men?" Second reaction.

"No way!" Third reaction.

"You have to think about it." Yang Hai said in a low voice: "If you come to be an IEC, maybe I will often come to play a few games of chess or something with you." It is said that your chess game is a rare opponent in the game world? But meet me, TIGER, you're doomed. ”

"You! Have the ability to try it! "In an instant, TIGER's demeanor was lost.

"We will definitely discuss the strategy of the dungeon together in the future, so everyone can take it out and show who is better." Yang Hai ignored TIGER's angry voice and continued: "As I said, although this time it is a draw, I will definitely beat you in the future. ”

"You!"

"Besides, DARK is an amateur guild, and now that you've retired, do you have a better place to go?" After Yang Hai finished speaking, he threatened: "If you don't come......"

“SO－WHAT？” TIGER ASKED ANGRILY.

"I'll treat you like air from now on." Yang Hai gritted his teeth and said: "I will retreat where you are, I will not compete with you FD, and you will not come to me to play chess, or play stud, billiards or something." I don't know you. ”

TIGER WAS SPEECHLESS OVER THERE.

"I ......," TIGER said confidently, "I still have to think about it." ”

"What to consider!" Yang Hai said angrily.

“OK，OK。” TIGER SAID HELPLESSLY: "YOU, ALAS...... I'll have to deal with the mess at hand, and I'll come back to you when I'm done. ”

"We said yes." Yang Hai said seriously: "A gentleman's word? ”

TIGER Zhilu said this famous Chinese language, and responded in astringent Chinese: "It is difficult to chase horses." ”

After hanging up the phone, Yang Hai breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't know what to do, he wanted to desperately leave TIGER. All he knew was that if such a person was allowed to disappear from the gaming world, he would regret it for the rest of his life, and perhaps he would never be able to forgive himself.

TIGER IS A HERO, AND HE SHOULDN'T HAVE LEFT LIKE THIS. For gamers, we never leave our world. Although he is old, however, the veteran does not die, and the veteran will only grow old slowly!

The friendship between professional gamers is very strange, although he has only fought with TIGER a few times and met a few times, but he thinks that between them, they can probably be regarded as confidants.

Then Yang Hai reacted, he just hung up the video invitation of Taili Military Industry, and immediately slapped his head.

This IEC is a little too unqualified.

He hurriedly picked up the Tianxun again, and at this time, the Tianxun sounded on its own.

);
