Due to the spectacular special effects, the fans could confirm that the account was who he claimed to be. For a time, the number of scrolling comments soared.
Some were normal, “Training match? FTW and RR are really a family; it’s confirmed. Sharing such important tactics with their good brothers first.
Some people helped Money reply, “It wasn’t necessarily sharing, however getting abused was a certainty.”
Of course, there were those who gossiped, “I never thought that the little lunatic would be a gong and actually managed to get Money. Tsk, tsk.”
“The collection of strange CPs has increased again. Watch out for the great demon king’s deep gaze!”
“CPs can be taken apart but can’t be reversed! The All Lunatic party will never acknowledge defeat!”
“Taken apart but not reversed??? Is it that my great demon king can’t lift up a blade, or that you little girls are over inflated?”
This sentence from Money smoothed away the worries in countless viewers’ nervous hearts.
It was obvious that FTW had practiced this line-up in advance. However, they may not have practiced it for long since the soul warlock talent had only been released for a few days.
Still, it was good that they’d practiced, and the fans also knew how strong RR was. If they could make Money complain repeatedly, then there must really be something to their line-up.
Unfortunately, the players were still slowly clearing out the jungle. In the past, the players seemed to reach level six in moments, but today, it seemed that they were playing very slowly, their experience crawling up bit by bit. It took forever for the soul warlock to level up.
The audience didn’t want to let Mo Hui run off. They urged him, “Captain Mo, start a live broadcast and provide commentary, we’ll go support you!”
Mo Hui sent out another pile of rockets. “No way.”
The audience looked at this big move and inexplicably felt that these two words were so willful that they were asking for a beating.
It was great having money! Well, money was really a little amazing…
So angry! They really wanted to go to RR and rip Money apart by hand!
Mo Hui wasn’t looking down on the gifts from the fans, but rather, “… It’s all blood and tears. I’ll start crying if I start a live broadcast.”
Fans laughed loudly, “Were you abused so miserably? Is the soul warlock line-up really that strong?”
Mo Hui: “I’m leaving. I don’t want to watch this game, it triggering me too much.”
The audience in the scrolling comments hurriedly asked him to stay, “Don’t, tell us more about it. Can Little Lunatic Wei really use his soul warlock to attach to the immortal warlock? Can he brush out thousand layers of clouds? Is it strong?”
Mo Hui: “Strong? Ha. My family’s Moon-moon hasn’t spoken to me at all today.”
The audience in the scrolling comments: “????”
The CP fans screamed shrilly! They stopped just short of driving a small train over to dye the live broadcast studio into a vast sea of yellow.
Mo Hui sighed, “He disdains me for being unable to play the soul warlock… you tell me if Little Lunatic Wei is strong or not.”
A large number of ellipses appeared in the scrolling comments.
Strong, he was really strong. An immortal warlock that could make Moonlit collapse…
They were looking forward to it so much that they were about to explode, okay!
Some career focused fans were still worried, “Captain Mo, do you think that FTW has a high chance of winning this game? Can they win? They won’t screw up, right?”
Mo Hui saw this comment and actually replied, “Ha, ha. If FTW actually loses, then I’ll go and blow up their base.”
The audience in the scrolling comments: “!”
Mo Hui’s gorgeous scrolling comments sported a noble title, and they flew into countless fans’ eyes. “We played four training matches and lost all four. If he loses to IN now, doesn’t it prove that we’re worse than IN?”
Then, he continued and asked, “Is RR worse than IN?”
These worse were both crazy and arrogant, and were displayed with a golden rich tyrant special effect.
The scrolling comments: “RR is badass! Money is badass! The China competition zone is badass!”
A fire was lit up in the live broadcast room. It could be predicted that if FTW lost this game, whether or not the base would be blown up was unknown, but the team would definitely accumulate many tonnes of blades.
The fans stared at the canyon, stared at Little Lunatic Wei, and watched for FTW’s next moves.
The soul warlock in the canyon had finally reached level 5 and was only one step away from level 6!
Money had really taken his special effects with him and left the room. He really didn’t plan to watch the game.
There was nothing to watch. This match with IN was the same as the second match in their training matches.
Out of four training matches, RR had been a bit careless in the first game and had been caught off guard by Little Lunatic Wei. They had lost miserably.
In the second game, they were still a little confused. They were tentative and cautious, scared of making mistakes. They tried to think about how to break up this routine, yet as a result, they fell into FTW’s trap.
What FTW was most afraid of was the period of time when the soul warlock couldn’t use attachment, prior to hitting level 6. The fight in the jungle zone had actually been a bluff. If Money hadn’t seized the initiative to invade their jungle zone at the time, it would be difficult to say how FTW would continue the game.
However, who could react to this?
When faced with such an abrupt line-up, when faced with this unreasonable little lunatic.
Either their psychological defenses were lax, and they took it lightly, therefore losing the game, or they were too cautious and missed the best opportunity, ensuring that they were unable to turn the tables.
IN was obviously doing the latter.
Their first invasion had been repulsed, and they had to be flustered.
This slight hesitation, paired with a wait-and-see attitude… things would go badly.
Wei Xiao had taken a little wooden stick in the early stages and crouched in the jungle with Brother Cai in order to stir up the first wave of momentum.
And it was really a bluff.
Their jungle zone wasn’t really indefensible. It was alright for Brother Cai to show off briefly, but he would soon expose his weaknesses if he fought with people head-on.
However, would Wei Xiao give the other side this chance? Would he give someone who didn’t understand their line-up a chance to react?
Obviously not.
Take First Blood and give them a scare. That was Wei Xiao’s purpose.
Then, they’d hurry and clear the jungle, develop quickly, and rush to level six.
To be honest, Little Lunatic Wei was more eager to reach level 6 than the audience.
Brother Cai’s palms were sweaty. “They really won’t dare to come?”
Wei Xiao: “Hurry up, hurry up, take turns using discipline and maximize the damage!”
He’d already sold his wooden staff and replaced it with a jungler knife in order to clear the jungle quicker.
At present, the biggest problem with the soul warlock was the early stages, which was the period before it reached level 6.
The damage dealt was too low, and the jungle clearing speed was too slow. Brother Cai only had average DPS control and his speed in clearing the jungle was quite a bit worse than Wei Xiao’s.
Of course, this wasn’t all Brother Cai’s fault. Although he’d taken the power thief, this talent was still essentially a support talent. Wei Xiao’s soul warlock was eating both experience and gold, and while his experience soared, his damage wouldn’t increase too much. It would be strange if they were able to clear the jungle quickly.
After calming down for a bit, IN’s support spoke up, “That’s not right!”
At the end of the day, he was still someone who’d somewhat mastered the soul warlock. Although he’d been startled by Wei Xiao initially, he still thought it through, “You can’t let the soul warlock reach level 6 just like this!”
As soon as these words came out, the jungler also figured it out. “F*ck! What dogs!”
The elemental shaman spoke to mid-laner Otee, “The three of us can’t let him develop so comfortably.”
They’d all woken up a little late. Wei Xiao was only a tiny bit short of hitting level 6.
However, they didn’t want to delay anymore. They had to hurry up and suppress the soul warlock or else they would have problems when they reached level 6!
The audience watched carefully. They saw that Wei Xiao had almost reached level 6, saw that he’d filled up more than half his experience bar, and they saw…
“Damn it, IN’s coming over to gank them!”
”The three of them are surrounding them, while the immortal warlock, who still doesn’t have his ultimate move, is struggling to clear the lane.”
“This is dangerous.”
“Don’t let anything happen, please don’t let anything happen!”
It was unknown if the prayer was useful, but Brother Cai had a keen sense of smell, “Something’s wrong.”
Wei Xiao looked at the minimap and spoke seriously, “Herd them to the mid-lane.”
Brother Cai was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at the situation on the minimap and let out a sigh of relief, “Okay!”
There was no need to communicate or say more. They could all see one point on the map––the top lane.
Although the audience was watching from god’s perspective, they weren’t in the canyon and didn’t have the same tactical awareness. They could only stare at the place where the fight was about to break out, and they weren’t paying attention to anywhere else on the map.
All they saw was Wei Xiao and Bai Cai moving towards the middle lane as though they were planning to meet up with the immortal warlock.
IN noticed it too. Otee was happy, “The immortal warlock in the mid-lane hasn’t reached level 6 yet either. We’ll take them all in!”
Who cared about what kind of routine they were using? If they lost three kills in the early stages, then they could just wait and see how FTW could recover from such a disadvantage!
IN’s elemental shaman created an acceleration totem. Although it could only be used by one person in the early stages, as long as the berserker thief’s scythe was able to lock onto one person, they would definitely be able to kill them on the spot with Otee’s DPS.
After one of them died, both the berserker thief and spirit mage would have their passive abilities triggered. IN was definitely going to win this wave of 3v3.
There was nothing wrong with this thinking. The fans were also worried, and they even started comforting each other.
“Trust Quiet. I believe that he can survive!”
“The immortal warlock should be able to survive too!”
“Come on, come on… it would be great if none of them died!”
The commentators woke up the dreamers. “Close is soloing the silver dragon!”
The director immediately cut out a small frame that showed the shadow thief soloing the silver dragon.
At this time in the game, the silver dragon was a small one. It was two sizes smaller than its maximum size, and it had much lower health and defense. Based on the shadow thief’s efficiency, it would only take a few moments to kill the silver dragon.
Once the little silver dragon fell to the ground, it would increase the whole team’s experience bar!
They then took another look at the three FTW players in the mid-lane. The immortal warlock’s experience bar was at level 5 and 1/3, and the immortal warlock was over halfway through level 5. The power thief was still approaching level 5 because he’d given up his resources.
Based on this experience level…
When the silver dragon died, the immortal warlock and soul warlock would instantly hit level 6!
Some talents were like two totally different heroes before and after level 6.
The immortal warlock and soul warlock were obviously such talents. On the other hand, it didn’t matter as much for the power thief, since its first three skills were all control skills. Whether or not he had his ultimate move was of little impact, and that was especially the case for Brother Cai, who was primarily a support player.
So… This round in the mid-lane was about to explode!
IN’s berserker thief locked onto the power thief. He was delighted and said, “Go!”
Brother Cai didn’t panic at all. He calmly sent out a ground stab.
After being locked in by the berserker thief, he had no choice but to get pulled over. Based on his defense, he would be able to resist enemy fire for at least two seconds.
What did two seconds mean?
System Announcement––
FTW.Close killed the Silver Dragon (low level).
As soon as the announcement came out, their experience arrived. IN didn’t have vision over there and hadn’t even known that Close was killing the dragon.
When they heard this system announcement, the three of them felt a chill go down their backs.
IN’s top-laner exclaimed, “F*ck!”
He’d still been on guard against getting killed by Close under his own tower and hadn’t expected that Close would go over to kill the dragon!
They all watched as a faint golden light enveloped the immortal warlock and soul warlock, and they both rose up to level 6.
Wei Xiao: “Little Ning.”
Ning Zhehan: “Got it!”
In just two short seconds, nobody even had time to blink their eyes. The soul warlock attached to the immortal warlock!
The two of them started up the connecting clouds combo at the same time. The overlapping clouds in the mid-lane paved steps across the river, constantly stacking upwards, and constantly climbing. After their field of vision was pulled high up, all they heard was a bang!
Landing on clouds was perfectly connected. These ethereal clouds seemed to gain substance, turning into fog that dropped layer by layer, transforming into sharp blades as they fell!
Thousand layers of clouds was also called thousand layers of snow.
Because the falling clouds were more like cold snow. They were tightly condensed together and had the momentum to freeze the earth!
Two sets of thousand layers of clouds!
There were really two sets!
Their range overlapped, and the damage doubled. This was like an explosion had taken place on the spot!
After being suppressed for so long, having endured for so long, and having waited for so long, the audience stood up and applauded desperately.
What a show, it was too cool!
The thousand layers of clouds with the holographic projection made the entire venue feel chilly.
It was a hot summer and their blood was boiling, but these fascinating special effects made everyone feel a refreshing sense of joy!
xiin: well… apparently i mis-scheduled a day. >_> let’s all pretend that 234 came out when it was supposed to
