Chapter 74.2: Proud Flower Kim is going to cry.
The little darling, ah, no, the little beast steadily took down the blue daddy. Wei Xiao was somewhat puzzled, “Why didn’t Pro come down to take a look?”
This was very unusual. Normally, when a team saw that there was a hidden thief on the other side, they would always charge over like a hungry wolf attacking a tiger, rushing up to tear or chop. They’d either try to kill the hidden thief or steal the blue buff. In short, he and his blue daddy should have never been allowed to fall in love with each other like this.
Bai Cai carefully provided insight as he said, “They probably guessed that the captain would protect you.”
Wei Xiao grew proud again, “That makes them smart. They know that the captain cares about me.”
Bai Cai: “……” I f*cking shouldn’t have just tried to talk to you!
Wei Xiao successfully cleared out the top jungle zone and moved to the bottom jungle zone.
The top jungle zone was in Lu Feng’s range, while the bottom jungle was beyond Lu Feng’s reach.
Lu Feng: “Be careful.”
Wei Xiao had constantly kept an eye on the minimap, “Got it.”
The hidden thief was quite weak before it hit level 6. A hidden thief who couldn’t shuttle around and hide in a crowd of people was nothing more than a vegetable stalk.
He’d just finished killing a stone soldier on the bottom lane when Wei Xiao felt a chill down his back, “Old Bai!”
He trusted his instincts fully and anxiously called out for Brother Cai to provide vision.
Bai Cai: “F*ck!”
There was nobody in Pro’s bottom jungle zone, and all the jungle creeps were still there. That meant…
Wei Xiao: “I f*cking…”
He had already begun to retreat cautiously, but the ghost hunter who flew over like a shadow had already hit him.
The ghost hunter was a talent spec that wasn’t often used nowadays because it wasn’t very suited for team fights.
It was even more focused on single attacks than the shadow thief, and was rarely seen in the 5v5 arena.
However, not only had Kim Sung-hyun had picked it, he was extremely overbearing with it.
The ghost hunter was a rare talent that had dual forms.
Where others had one skill, he had two; when others had two skills, he had four; when others had three, he had six…
Right now, Wei Xiao only had two skills, while the ghost hunter already had four.
The ghost hunter’s ghost state’s first skill combined with the second skill was a strong control skill followed by armor breaking, while the human state’s first and second skills dealt explosive DPS.
Wei Xiao, this squishy hidden thief, evaporated on the spot in seconds.
System announcement: Pro.Succ killed FTW.Quiet!
Kim Sung-hyun had killed Wei Xiao on his own while in FTW’s bottom jungle zone!
The audience could see everything from god’s perspective and were much clearer about the situation than FTW was.
“Amazing!”
“Who the hell can hide from this?!”
“He didn’t even have vision. How did Kim Sung-hyun manage to grasp the right timing?”
“FTW’s marksman really can’t be blamed for this. Who can react to this?!”
Reasonably speaking, if Kim Sung-hyun disappeared, then Yue Wenle should send out a signal so that Wei Xiao would know to be careful.
However, Kim Sung-hyun had disappeared too quickly. He seemed to have figured out that Wei Xiao had already finished clearing the upper jungle and had come down to the bottom jungle. He switched to ghost form, and while Yue Wenle thought that he’d just gone to kill a jungle creep near his own tower, he’d made use of the ghost state’s high mobility to brazenly charge into FTW’s bottom jungle zone.
The ghost hunter disappeared for a brief moment, then landed strong control and DPS, taking away Wei Xiao’s life with a series of moves!
It was quick and direct and not polite at all.
Daddy Hyun’s attack really lived up to his reputation.
Why hadn’t Pro gone into the top jungle zone to mess with Wei Xiao? Why had they let Wei Xiao take the blue daddy? It was because they were waiting for him in the bottom jungle.
So what if he took the blue buff?
Once he was killed, it would just become a gift for the other side!
Wei Xiao sucked in a breath, “Really cruel.”
Lu Feng reminded him, “Don’t act alone.”
Wei Xiao understood instantly, “He’s still in the bottom jungle area?”
Lu Feng: “Yes.”
Wei Xiao was startled, “Does he really look down on me that much!”
Lu Feng: “…….”
Yue Wenle spoke up, “I’ll come support you.”
Lu Feng didn’t say anything.
Wei Xiao felt that it wasn’t quite right, “Don’t. That will affect your own development.”
Yue Wenle: “In that case, I’ll press his lane soldiers.”
If the lane soldiers were pushed towards Pro’s defense tower, then Kim Sung-hyun would definitely come back to guard the tower and wouldn’t be able to target Wei Xiao.
There was no problem with this strategy, but…
Nobody said it, but everyone understood that Yue Wenle couldn’t hold Kim Sung-hyun down. This was the root of why Kim Sung-hyun dared to be so unscrupulous.
Wei Xiao said, “Don’t worry about me. Focus on developing. I’ll be careful.”
Bai Cai: “I’ll go with you.”
Wei Xiao: “Okay.”
As a jungler, Wei Xiao now had to be very cautious even in his own jungle zone. It was a novel experience.
Just now, not only had Kim Sung-hyun killed him, he’d also stolen his three little jungle creeps, adding on another layer of pressure despite not even being there.
Wei Xiao had just finished clearing the jungle creeps when Yue Wenle called out anxiously, “The ghost hunter isn’t in the lane!”
Wei Xiao’s nerves tensed up, and he was very cautious with his positioning. He felt that this time, he could smear the ghost hunter into the ground no matter what.
Just now, he’d been caught off guard. This time, he had to get even.
Five seconds, ten seconds, fifteen seconds…
Wei Xiao suddenly said, “The small dragon!”
Bai Cai was stunned and then realized, “Damn it, we fell for it.”
Wei Xiao sped up stealthily and went through his own jungle zone in the blink of an eye, making his way to the dragon pit.
They were really too capable at messing around.
Kim Sung-hyun had disappeared, but it wasn’t for the sake of ganking him. They’d gone to take down the small dragon.
In the early stages, the small dragon was very important. Once they were able to take it down, the Pro’s entire team’s experience and farming ability would go up, strengthening up all three of their lanes.
Originally, Ning Zhehan was already having difficulty holding up in the mid-lane. If the other side’s mid-laner leveled up and gave him more pressure, then… it would be like a blood avalanche level collapse!
Wei Xiao had no time to be concerned about Bai Cai’s moving speed and rushed into the dragon pit first.
Because this side wasn’t in FTW’s territory, Bai Cai didn’t dare to set down his vision here. Only when the hero was in the vicinity would he be able to see the situation clearly.
Sure enough…
Pro’s jungler and Kim Sung-hyun were fighting the dragon.
The ancient creature whose teeth and claws were flying everywhere only had a tenth of its health left.
Once Kim Sung-hyun took it down, FTW wouldn’t be able to play at all!
Once this snowball started rolling, they wouldn’t be able to find the sky again!
Wei Xaio realized that he’d still been taking the game lightly. Li Heran wasn’t there, so he’d always felt that Pro would be a little worse off. The coach’s words had sparked his interest, but he’d still underestimated Kim Sung-hyun.
Which jungler would think that they could be suppressed by a marksman?
Until they met Kim Sung-hyun.
The hidden thief’s stealth had a time limit. Especially when they were close to the enemy; a skill was enough to break them out of it.
Kim Sung-hyun hadn’t expected that Wei Xiao would come so soon.
Wei Xiao had already reached level 6. The level 6 hidden thief had its ultimate move––Windless.
His dart shot over, and he used his own jungle creep to take off, jumping into the dragon pit.
There were three possible targets in the dragon pit. One was the dragon, and the other two were Park Guizhi and Kim Sung-hyun.
The hidden thief who’d flown inside was most likely about to die inside the pit.
However, Wei Xiao had already gone inside and had never thought of leaving it alive!
Kim Sung-hyun’s pupils contracted, “Save your skills!”
He was speaking to Park Guizhi. He’d already seen through Wei Xiao’s intentions!
Unfortunately, he’d spoken a little late. Wei Xiao had already gotten close, and he attacked Kim Sung-hyun and Park Guizhi at the same time.
Kim Sung-hyun immediately switched forms, clearing away the darts while his ghost form’s claws swiped at Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao wasn’t anxious. He used his ultimate move and aimed at Park Guizhi, perfectly avoiding the control skill.
Park Guizhi’s skills were linked up quickly, but Wei Xiao was more flexible than they’d expected. He took off again and rushed towards the dragon.
The commentator exclaimed, “This is a beautiful set of moves!”
“He perfectly avoided Kim Sung-hyun and Park Guizhi’s moves!”
“A very brilliant series of operations that can be included in the collection of wonderful replays!”
It wasn’t that the commentator was praising him exaggeratedly with his eyes closed; the details of Wei Xiao’s operation left even Kim Sung-hyun and Park Guizhi stunned.
Kim Sung-hyun stared at the dragon’s health bar and gritted his teeth, “Kill the hidden thief first!”
They couldn’t let Wei Xiao live. His ‘windless’ had never been interrupted, and at this time, if Pro continued to attack the dragon, they would only be offering up themselves and the dragon on a silver platter!
Kim Sung-hyun’s judgement was correct. He and Park Guizhi attacked from both sides, landing all their damage output on Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao’s small body couldn’t stand the assault. He looked at Bai Cai’s position and knew that there wouldn’t be enough time…
“Old Bai! Ultimate move!”
The light priest’s ultimate move was a wall that could isolate all creatures, including friendly forces.
Bai Cai was worthy of being an old teammate who’d fought with him everywhere. He sold him out without any hesitation and said, “Have a good trip!”
He was still seven or eight yards away from the dragon pit, and it was impossible for him to save Wei Xiao. he could only create opportunities for Yue Wenle, who was making his way over!
The light priest’s light wall fell down from the sky and split the dragon pit into two.
The dragon was outside the wall, and inside the wall were the three fighting players.
Nobody had any attention left to spare on fighting the dragon, and the dragon’s health volume gradually went back up again.
Pro’s attempt to steal the dragon had completely failed this time. They could only kill Wei Xiao to assuage their anger.
Wei Xiao had been trapped in the dragon pit by Bai Cai. There was no escape, and no hiding. There was only death.
However, the road to death didn’t mean waiting for death. Wei Xiao used ‘windless’ to the extreme and tried to avoid taking damage in the narrow space…
Yue Wenle’s storm hunter finally appeared, stepping on its raindrops. Wei Xiao was delighted, “Old Yue, kill him!”
He’d only just finished speaking when he was killed by Kim Sung-hyun.
At the same time, Yue Wenle’s rain arrows flew over coldly, hitting the ghost hunter who was already at low health.
System Announcement––
Pro.Succ killed FTW.Quiet!
FTW.Le killed Pro.Succ!
“Cool!”
The scrolling comments were full of cheers, “You didn’t die unjustly, Quiet contributed greatly in this wave!”
“Right, right, right, not only did he interfere with Kim Sung-hyun killing the dragon, he also tried his best to create opportunities for his teammates to take a kill.”
“Awesome! It’s too damned awesome!”
“Daddy Hyun is still Daddy Hyun, his hands are still that steady, accurate, and cruel when he kills thieves!”
Less than half a second later, the system announcement rang out again––
FTW.Close killed Pro.UU.
The bottom jungle area was fighting hard, and on the top lane, Close had solo killed Pro’s top-laner!
Although Wei Xiao had died, he was still very excited, “Beautiful!”
Having the captain there was too reliable.
After FTW’s team fight, no matter what the casualties were, the top lane would always be as stable as a rock. It really gave them a sense of security.
In FTW’s team chat––
Lu Feng: “Switch lanes.”
Yue Wenle was stunned.
Lu Feng: “I’ll go against Kim Sung-hyun in that lane.”
The audience couldn’t hear the team chat, but they could see the real-time movements.
It made their spirits quiver to see the divine warrior and storm hunter switch lanes.
“Close is going to the bottom lane!”
“Kim Sung-hyun’s playing too arrogantly, and Close can’t watch on anymore.”
“Reasonably speaking, can Kim Sung-hyun’s marksman hold down Close’s jungler?”
“I don’t know. FTW, who does a round trip home for the world championships, has never had a chance to fight against Pro.”
“Ahhhh, how good would it be if Close was the jungler? We could see who is more fierce!”
“Quietly whispering, I always have a feeling that the great demon king is angry now.”
“Angry about what?”
“His own little jungler was killed twice, emm…”
“Holy shit, sister, that’s a good one. We ship this, we ship this!”
Off-stage.
Yuan Ze’s lips curved in a smile, “Proud Flower Kim is going to cry.”
xiin: close to the rescue?
