Chapter 409: Witnessing History, Creating History
SOT’s bottom lane duo had already recalled, and the top laner and jungler were preparing to take the red buff. Mid laner Frost’s Lux was about to head down to her lane. But just as she moved downward, NRG’s five players suddenly emerged from a blind spot in the vision!
Frost reacted extremely quickly. The moment she spotted them, she immediately flashed to create distance, then turned back and fired a Q ability to snare two enemies before escaping toward the top lane.
Although Lux had escaped, SOT’s jungler Nocturne was still in the jungle. NRG’s five players split up to surround him. Nocturne panicked and ran toward NRG’s base direction but was quickly caught. Orianna claimed first blood.
After securing first blood, NRG’s top laner and jungler directly entered the jungle and stole SOT’s blue buff.
This start was practically a dream start for NRG, mainly because their mid and jungle were taking off. For SOT, Nocturne was essentially ruined, and Lux had also burned her flash. The lanes would have to be much more cautious because Blaing!!
NRG lifted the trophy. Whether at the live venue or on major streaming platforms, the excitement had reached its peak!
“NRG is awesome! World champions!”
“Haha, the championship stays in our country!”
“So satisfying! Winning three in a row after losing one, crushing SOT. This championship is well-deserved!”
“All five players are outstanding!”
“The atmosphere at the venue is absolutely explosive! Such a shame I’m not there live!”
“Hey, isn’t that Chen Mo? Chen Mo is on stage!”
“Ahhh, Chen Mo! Wow, these five guys have some serious prestige! Chen Mo personally congratulating them and interviewing them?”
“I knew it. I was wondering why Chen Mo hadn’t shown up until now. He was waiting to make a grand entrance at the end!”
The energy inside the competition venue had reached its peak. It was truly well-deserved.
As the designer of *League of Legends* and the organizer of this World Finals, Chen Mo stepped to the front to deliver a summary of the tournament.
All the cameras focused on Chen Mo.
“I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to all the professional teams and every summoner for your tremendous support of this World Finals. You could say that you are witnesses to history, but also creators of it. This history would be incomplete without a single one of you here.”
“In this Finals, we invited the world’s top sixteen teams. Over the long journey of more than a month, every team showcased their peak strength and revealed the most brilliant side of *League of Legends* as a game.”
“Today, these two strongest teams delivered a dreamlike showdown for us!”
“Today, NRG has been crowned king!”
Chen Mo paused, waiting for the cheers in the venue to subside slightly before continuing, “Just now, I received the real-time data. The viewership for this final match has reached 8.37 million, a number that has made history.”
“And as NRG lifted the trophy, the prize pool for this tournament has also been finalized. During the World Finals, we sold a total of 540,000 Riven skins. Half of the proceeds from that—27 million—will become the championship prize!”
“In other words, this championship team will receive a prize of up to 47 million!”
“Let’s all cheer together. For this unprecedented esports feast, glory belongs to every summoner of *League of Legends*!”
