Chapter 70 Close, badass!

The commentator and those watching the live broadcast couldn’t hear their team chat. What they could see was the result: the berserker warrior used its ultimate move, stabbing its blade at the berserker thief hidden in the grass!

“Close sensed it!”

“FTW has no vision across the entire river. Gary’s positioning was very good, but Close was actually able to sense it. This kind of intuition is really impressive.”

Indeed, professional players had something called intuition. It sounded very metaphysical, but in fact, it was formed through countless repetition and experience, creating a game consciousness that went beyond reason.

This was one of the subtle factors that drew a line between top class contestants and ordinary ones.

Top class contestants had radars that were more sensitive in ways that the ordinary contestant couldn’t grasp.

This was probably a kind of awareness towards the killing intent from an ancient battlefield. It came from the strong will that was tempered after wandering on the edge of life and death countless times!

Lu Feng’s blade swept across, leaving Gary stunned for half a second.

A mere half a second was already a huge gap in his defenses. Lu Feng seized the opportunity to smash down a set of skills along with his enhanced basic attack, cutting Gary down to a sliver of health in seconds.

Old G was worthy of being a man who often walked around beneath the great demon king’s blade; his hand speed was amazing. He hooked a jungle monster over with his scythe, then flipped over the wall, following his scythe. He avoided Lu Feng’s subsequent attack and was able to escape with his small life.

Everything happened too quickly, taking place over mere seconds, and the audience was still in a state of surprise. Yuan Ze had already come over from the rear, his blood blade coming out of its sheath, sending the red and black blade cleaving towards the back of the berserker warrior.

Lu Feng didn’t remain focused on the berserker thief with only a sliver of health left. Instead, he turned to attack Yuan Ze with a returning blow.

The red and black bloodsucking blade and the berserker warrior’s ice blue magical blade clashed, sending a gorgeous, brilliant light through the canyon.

The two people involved in this confrontation were surrounded by ice and fire, their killing intent surging!

“Amazing!” The audience in the live broadcast room exploded, “The great demon king is amazing!”

He was too f*cking cool!

The audience watching from god’s perspective could see what was happening better than anyone else. Yuan Ze and Gary were clearly trying to recreate Lu Feng and Wei Xiao’s two against one fight from the start of the game.

However, Lu Feng hadn’t fallen for it at all. Instead, he’d taken the initiative to attack and drove Gary away with a set of skills.

Yuan Ze had charged over to attack, but he still didn’t retreat. He took advantage of the fact that he was still in his berserk state to resist the damage and counterattack.

In just one or two seconds, FTW, who had originally been in a state of crisis, regained its advantage through Lu Feng’s preemptive efforts.

Wei Xiao was completely relieved. After he finished his sweep through the small jungle zone, he returned to the middle lane, “Little Ning, let’s get revenge!”

Ning Zhehan was excited, “Okay!”

The immortal warlock didn’t take Ning Zhehan seriously at all. He was very close to the front, wanting to find a chance to kill Ning Zhehan.

Ning Zhehan’s finger pressed down on the W key and was ready to move at any time.

Pressing down on the keyboard was very simple, and anyone could release skills. The difficult thing was grasping the timing.

It was no good if it was a little too late, and useless if it was too early. The margin of error for the skill release was less than 0.01 seconds and had to be accurate in order to hold down the flashy immortal warlock.

Wei Xiao landed a full ultimate move on the immortal warlock, but VIVI’s reaction speed was able to catch up, and he relied on the small soldiers nearby to share the damage and remain alive.

However…

Ning Zhehan pressed down on the shadow form skill, and the spirit mage flew out from beneath the tower to the immortal warlock. At the moment when the immortal warlock landed, a silver ball of light exploded against his chest!

Bang, bang, bang!

Three explosions rang out in the headset, and Ning Zhehan cried out excitedly, “They all hit!”

The spirit mage’s ultimate move had three stages of damage. If all of them hit the same point on the same target, the damage would be tripled.

Based on the amount of damage dealt just now, the immortal warlock would definitely die.

System Announcement––

FTW.Silvery killed L&P.VIVI!

Ning Zhehan had killed the immortal warlock!

He’d really gotten revenge!

Ning Zhehan yelled, “Nice!”

Wei Xiao: “Badass, Brother Ning, you killed the world’s number three mage.”

Ning Zhehan tried to contain himself a little, “It’s the number three mid-laner in the rankings.”

Then, “Holy shit, I beat the number three mid-laner on the world rankings.”

Little Ning’s ego was expanding!

At the same time, there was good news from the top lane.

FTW.Close killed L&P.Marshal!

FTW.Close killed L&P.Gary!

FTW.Close double kill!

This series of system announcements was so exciting that the entire FTW team’s momentum instantly reached a new high.

At the top lane, L&P’s Yuan Ze and Old G wanted to gank Close, but they were killed instead!

It was two against one, but both of them died.

There was nothing else that needed to be said.

The scrolling comments were packed densely with––the great demon king was amazing!

He was really amazing. Before, they’d only known that he could play jungler, and they’d never thought that he would also be such an overlord when he went to the top lane.

What team fight?

The great demon king could fight alone!

As for solo?

He could fight two on one and still teach others how to be a man!

The fight on the top lane and mid-lane had started at about the same time. In fact, the live broadcast studio had only carved out a small shot of Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan and had mainly focused on the top lane.

It was a peak level fight between Marshal and Close; it was too exciting, okay?!

The blood warrior that was covered in a red aura after using its ultimate move and the berserker warrior that was coated in icy blue were like ancient gods of war dueling at the edge of a cliff!

Each move was murderous. Pairing dazzling special effects with a 3D display made the battle so stunning that the audience’s scalps went numb.

After the blood warrior’s ultimate move was started up, he could crazily suck health from his opponents by dealing damage. His bloodsucking blade would change from red and black to a brilliant, bright red, looking like it was filled with flowing, hot blood.

The berserker warrior’s transformation only lasted ten seconds, but it became stronger with every passing second, and the special effects became even chillier. In the last four seconds, the berserker warrior’s entire body would be covered with ice blue flames, and even its heavy armor would be burned to ashes, revealing its strong arms and chest muscles.

There were many female Glory players. In last year’s ranking for most handsome talent specs, the berserker warrior only ranked seventh. However, this segment was edited online after this game ended, and the crazy warrior’s popularity was about to break through the sky in direct competition against the shadow thief!

It was too damned handsome.

This man, Close, was really poisonous.

It was enough that he himself was handsome; how come even the heroes he controlled carried his aura? It made people so handsome that their hearts almost thumped out of their chests.

Four seconds, three seconds, two seconds, one second…

The berserker warrior’s berserk state ended, and the blood warrior’s bloodsucking state disappeared.

The two of them had been fighting back and forth constantly over this brief time.

Skills, positioning, avoiding damage…

Countless details made the audience’s scalps numb.

The two men of equal strength were strong enough to go up against the sky.

Their bodies were clearly outside the canyon, but it was as though they were attached to the canyon and it was shocking when they clashed against each other!

In the end, the berserker warrior cut down the blood warrior.

Lu Feng killed Yuan Ze.

If that was all, then the audience wouldn’t be filling up the screen like crazy.

The berserker warrior who only had one segment of health left, who no longer had its ultimate move, whose skills were all in cooldown, pressed down on ‘teleport’.

In Glory, each hero could bring two system skills. Teleportation was a required one, and using it allowed the player to be transmitted to a teammate, a friendly defense tower, or friendly soldiers.

Everyone sucked in a breath, “Shit, Old G!”

Yes, Lu Feng had teleported to Old G.

In the fight just now, Old G had been disabled and could only retreat. However, it was impossible for him to just return home like this. A professional player would race against the clock to farm as much as possible.

He wanted to use the soldiers in the top lane to regain some health and kill Lu Feng after he’d recovered slightly.

Obviously, Lu Feng had seen through his idea. He teleported directly to FTW’s soldiers.

Gary’s hands trembled slightly as he stared at the berserker warrior that had dropped down from the sky.

Yuan Ze: “He has no skills left.”

Old G steadied himself as he realized that the great demon king in front of him was just a paper tiger. He’d already recovered a small amount of health, and if he tried hard and used all his skills…

Lu Feng didn’t use any skills at all. He used flash to approach and took away Gary’s life with a single attack.

The entire scene fell silent.

Regardless of whether it was outside the stage or in the team voice chat.

It was as though everyone’s mute button had been pressed, and nobody made a sound.

F*ck!

He still had flash!

This was also a system skill, and it was of a similar nature to teleport. Players could choose to equip this skill at the start of the game.

The cooldown time for the skill was two minutes, and it was equivalent to a movement skill. It allowed the player to flash quickly from Point A to Point B.

Close had kept the flash skill all the way until now.

He’d planned to kill both of them right from the very beginning!

Two against one?

Ambush?

They wanted to kill the great demon king?

Sorry, but neither of them would be allowed to run.

The domestic fans were super excited. Regardless of whether they’d previously been Close haters, haters for life, or haters till death, at this moment, they all became his fan for three seconds.

Too cool, it was too damn cool.

They had to consider who he was up against!

It was L&P!

The 2019 global champion, the 2020 global runner up, the strongest top-laner, the strongest jungler, and the strongest top-lane and jungler pairing!

One against two, and he’d killed both of them.

Close was really strong!

FTW’s team chat had also exploded.

Wei Xiao: “Holy shit holy shit!”

Bai Cai could vaguely sense that the next sentence would be problematic.

As expected, Wei Xiao was full of regret, “I really envy L&P!”

He also wanted to play in the same lane against Close, and he also wanted to have a heated fight with him!

Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenle both thought to themselves: Your envy is aimed at the wrong people, right?

Lu Feng comforted the grumpy little lunatic with a single sentence, “Solo, tonight.”

Little Lunatic Wei came back to life on the spot, “Let’s kill L&P.”

To hell with envy. L&P could only play against Close several times a year, but he could play and sing with him every single night.

Ten minutes into the game.

The score was 4:1.

L&P had died four times, of which Yuan Ze made up two of the deaths

This data was incredible.

Let alone facing the FTW team that always did a round trip for the global competition, L&P wouldn’t be in such a state when fighting against strong teams like Y1, Pro, and EVE.

Dying twice in a row? Was Marshal still the same Marshal?

Did he still deserve such an ID?

There was dead silence in L&P’s team chat.

Half a beat later, VIVI spoke in a low voice, “Sorry.”

If he hadn’t been killed, he could’ve gone to the top lane to provide support.

Yuan Ze fixed his eyes on the screen and said nothing.

Gary sat next to him and took advantage of his darkened screen of death to sneak a quick look at him.

Yuan Ze’s black hair curled slightly, falling loosely on the tip of his pale ear, imitating the black ear stud on his earlobe. Instead of showing a gloomy expression, his lips were hooked up.

“Gary.” Yuan Ze’s voice was full of pleasure, “Let’s show them what a real top-jungler linkage is.”

Gary’s scalp was numb, and goose bumps exploded all over his arms, “Okay!”

A real top-jungler linkage.

It was the year that L&P dominated the Glory circle, and it was a legend created by Marshal and Gary.

That was during Yuan Ze’s first year at L&P.

In the year after Yuan Ze had been put on the bench for a season as a rubbish player after transferring to a new competition zone!

2017 was the peak year for the Team of Gods.

2018 was Yuan Ze’s low point.

He’d left his own competition zone and joined the powerful North American competition zone. There were ethnic differences, nationality differences, and even language barriers. Despite his proud achievements and his strength that was enough to crush others, he had still encountered discrimination and exclusion.

The team that had signed him at a high price had originally planned to make good use of him.

Unfortunately, Glory was a team game. A player who couldn’t fit into the team would only be abandoned.

In 2018, Yuan Ze made his debut but lost messily.

It wasn’t that he wasn’t good but more that his teammates didn’t cooperate at all.

So what if he played the top-lane?

Even a lonely position like the top-lane still required the support of his teammates.

Yuan Ze had no teammates.

He lost three games in a row during the regular season and went from being a starter to a substitute––the most expensive substitute.

That year, the China competition zone lost ‘Marshal’, and the North American competition zone hid ‘Marshal’.

Yuan Ze remained dormant for a season, then terminated his contract with his team in 2019 and went to the mediocre team L&P.

He trained up Gary on his own, brought out VIVI, picked out his current teammates, and formed a new L&P.

In 2019, the top-jungler linkage between Yuan Ze and Gary appeared in the world, smashing its way through the North American competition zone, charging all the way to the finals, and winning the world championship.

Yuan Ze proved himself with absolute strength––

He was very strong. No matter where he was, he was very strong.

But after the peak came the downhill slide.

In 2020, the hot L&P gradually lost its original intent and was only able to obtain runner-up.

And now, L&P had been ignited again.

The heart that had been paralyzed by last year’s performance beat violently once again, and they all experienced the long-lost feeling of boiling passion within their blood.
