Chapter 246.1: Captain, I love you to death!

After getting the red and blue buffs, the jungler king became happy and opened his mouth, saying, “Captain, I love you to death!”
Acting spoiled, acting cute, he did it all. Wei Little Xiao’s sweetness came online right on time.
Everyone in FTW remained composed. Bai Cai, who’d seen all sorts of storms and waves, was completely calm. When it came to Glory’s Mic Explosion King, coming out of the closet in public, subverting people’s outlooks on life…
That was overthinking it!
Just look at the calm Little Ning, then look at the even calmer Yue Lele.
Who would take Wei Xiao’s coquettish words seriously?
Oh, someone would.
The great demon king would take it seriously. The only one in the world, the exclusive one, a customized special version.
When faced with tons of dog food, the clueless Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had a natural immunity. The clued in Bai Cai had already eaten so much of it that he’d abandoned himself.
What else could he do?
Brother Cai rolled his eyes: He’d just eat it; it wasn’t like he could get fat on it, anyway.
Gary had been killed, and there wasn’t much Yuan Ze could do. He couldn’t use a space-time knight to control a great and small demon king prior to level six.
It wasn’t that Marshal was cowering, but that he was calm, wise, and had an eye on the big picture.
For men, they would quit as soon as they decided to quit. It hurt quite a bit to get bitten by the little lunatic.
The live broadcast audience had originally started praising Yuan Ze, thinking that he had some skills and was using the space-time knight well. They admitted that he wasn’t an Oscars winning actor and wasn’t trying to deliberately lose to FTW.
But now, they changed perspectives again. The haters and flamers acted like they‘d been recharged with energy and swarmed out, starting to chatter on––
“Like I said, the space knight’s no good. Taking a support type talent without a support’s way of thinking, is Marshal having a fun time acting?”
“I’m laughing. As a support type top-laner, he didn’t go up to take damage or send himself up to die. Instead, he let his core DPS die miserably under a double attack. Yuan Ze, is your way of thinking taking a turn for the worse?”
“People with a self-focused consciousness shouldn’t try this talent, okay? Is it that there aren’t enough DPS type warrior talents or DPS style paladins? Please let the space knight off the hook.”
“He even dares to use the space knight. Scum Man Yuan might be better off trying to be a flight attendant.”
“Don’t disgrace flight attendants. We don’t only look at faces, thank you!”
The scrolling comments swept by happily and were even filled with gloating. They were hoping Yuan Ze would mess up and that L&P would be violently beaten up.
The commentators were very impartial, especially Eurostar. They’d never fought head on with L&P, but they knew a lot about them since they were a team who played very similarly to FTW. They often reviewed their games as example games.
So, Eurostar was very clear about Yuan Ze’s play style.
Self-centered, strong, uncompromising.
He really was strong, living up to his name as the solo king.
It was also true that he was self-centered. This was a common problem in the Team of Gods. However, Yuan Ze’s teammates had learned to adapt to him after training and had enough ability to keep up with him.
There was no problem with their top-jungler linkage, and there was no problem with their mid and bottom lanes.
In the later stages, they each carried out their own duties during team fights. L&P was a team that was formed with Yuan Ze as its soul.
It wasn’t on purpose, but Yuan Ze’s natural aura had formed the current L&P.
Only when one understood Yuan Ze’s temperament and L&P’s play method would one know how much he’d paid out in order to use the space-time knight so well.
Since ancient times, there had been a saying that rivers and mountains changed easily, but human nature was difficult to change.
Suppressing Yuan Ze’s original nature wasn’t easy.
Eurostar: “Although Gary was killed in the top lane, Marshal has already done all he could. He’s not yet reached level six, and his time and space reversal skill hasn’t been unlocked. The only shield he had was unavailable because it was on cooldown from the battle with Close, while his earth mines couldn’t cause enough damage. Even if he knew Quiet was coming, Gary couldn’t withdraw from the position he was in, and he’d already managed to limit the losses for his team by withdrawing in time.”
Normally, Eurostar wouldn’t say so much. This was called inflating other people’s egos before destroying their prestige and would result in him getting flamed in the live broadcast room.
However, Cowardly Baby Euro didn’t back down. He trembled in the canyon but was angry and snappy on Weibo. With alt accounts in hand, he would act righteously fearless saying things like: “It’s nothing much, I just want to preach and talk some reason with those who curse my teammates o(*???*)o.”
Later on, he directly used his main account instead… cough.
The commentator picked up on Eurostar’s words and also gave a pertinent evaluation of Yuan Ze’s operations.
The audience in the live broadcast room felt great. They included the commentators in their flaming.
The elated Little Lunatic Wei had already started to go crazy in the canyon, quickly clearing out the jungle zone. After confirming the vision, he rushed into L&P’s jungle zone and swept through it recklessly.
Old G, come to the top lane. If the two of you are able to kill the great demon king before level 6, then FTW will directly admit defeat!
Wei Xiao took advantage of the fact that the space time knight hadn’t yet been fully unleashed to burn, kill, and loot the whole way. He took over the jungle zone, helped his teammates gain the advantage in their lanes, and as for kills… oh, President V and President A were always too clever and he couldn’t catch them.
But that was fine. Getting Little Ning and Yue Wenle’s farm higher than their counterparts was already a small step towards success!
They watched as FTW’s rhythm flew up, while L&P became more and more passive.
The domestic audience was in high spirits while the foreign audience cursed.
The objective evaluations that came from the wise, rational fans were soon drowned out, and no one paid attention to them.
If the director aimed the camera through the coach seating, then everyone would discover that Chen Feng’s expression was very solemn.
His eyebrows were drawn together, his fingers were interlaced and his lips were pressed together tightly. Although he wasn’t biting his nails out of habit, the degree of tension he showed was no less than that of any of the earlier games.
FTW had the advantage, but the advantage that FTW had established wouldn’t be enough for them to cope with L&P when they reached level 6.
That made sense…
The timing of this advantage was too brief, and there were too few things that could be done. Wei Xiao had worked very hard to snatch up control of the early stage, but no matter how hard he tried, the skills that would eventually be unlocked were still bound to be unlocked.
Wei Xiao soloed the first silver dragon, and everyone in FTW reached level 6. At this time, everyone in L&P except for their support Mo had reached level 5. Old G was just about to reach level 6.
Bai Cai sensed something from the bottom lane. “They’re starting on the golden dragon!”
The first golden dragon was actually very easy to kill. Wei Xiao had gone for the silver dragon due to the terrain; the silver dragon pit was advantageous for FTW. After taking it down, their entire team would gain a lot, and he could rush to the golden dragon pit after everyone was level 6. If L&P wasn’t there when they arrived, then they could get double dragons and fill up their coffers. If L&P was there, then they would have a suppression group battle. With everyone at level 6, they could hammer L&P until they went into seclusion.
Wei Xiao’s thoughts were very good, and Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle also began to make their way to the golden dragon pit to set up.
In this game, the golden dragon was closer to the bottom lane. Because the dragon pit faced the other side, FTW didn’t have good vision there. Brother Cai was only able to notice something so early because he was paying close attention.
Unfortunately, when he saw L&P, L&P noticed him as well. So, L&P knew that FTW would come, but did they withdraw?
No!
The audience watched on nervously. “Did L&P not see Bai Cai?”
“Impossible. He’d exposed himself so much; is everyone from L&P blind?”
“Then why aren’t they withdrawing? Are they waiting for Wei to come and stir things up?”
“L&P isn’t that stupid. Gary and President V are keeping their skills on standby.”
“They even want to counterattack? With this kind of level difference, the four people from FTW have fifteen skills. Only Old G is level six, how the hell are they going to fight!”
“F*ck! They really started fighting!”
FTW came over to surround them. Bai Cai started up the fight first, and the four from L&P didn’t show any intention of hiding at all. They started fighting right away.
They were indeed fighting the dragon, and they really did want the golden dragon, but they weren’t planning to avoid war!
They’d kept all their skills on standby, their nerves tight. They were just waiting for FTW to attack!
“L&P is going to explode on the spot…”
“F*ck, the space-time knight!”
“Yuan Ze reached level six!”
“So what? His and Close’s transmissions are both on cooldown. He can’t possibly arrive in time.”
“Damn it, I knew early on that the space knight could traverse half the map, but I didn’t expect that he could go from the top dragon pit to the bottom dragon pit by adding a flash!”
“This is too exaggerated. The blood warrior is a slow moving talent, and he doesn’t have his major movement skill. It’s impossible for him to come down and provide support.”
“But the question is… What can Yuan Ze do even if he comes to support? Can he harvest kills as a space-time knight?”
“The immortal thief’s brushing out skills!”
Wei Xiao had already received the news from Lu Feng. He’d given a signal as soon as Yuan Ze disappeared.
It was impossible for Lu Feng to go over to provide support, but based on exercising their level six suppression abilities against level fives, the four from FTW wouldn’t necessarily lose in a four against five fight. Besides, Yuan Ze was gone, leaving the top lane empty. Lu Feng could take this opportunity to push his tower, and their gains would be far greater that way than having him come to the dragon pit.
After weighing the pros and cons, FTW had come to the best solution.
As for L&P?
Wei Xiao was absolutely an intuitive creature. His intuition was more reliable than his rational analysis. He always felt that something was off and that something wasn’t quite right.
FTW obviously had a great advantage, and the victory rate for this team fight was 70%, but he still felt uneasy.
He couldn’t pinpoint it in words and could only say that based on his recognition of Yuan Ze’s strength, L&P wouldn’t play a team fight where they would obviously collapse.
Coincidentally, Brother Cai’s control skill landed on AA’s head.
This opportunity left no room for Wei Xiao’s thoughts. His skills moved faster than his brain, and he darted forward, drawing a prison on the ground. His ten thousand swords stacked up quickly, and he landed full damage on AA’s head.
He would definitely die!
Even without the fireball damage that Ning Zhehan stacked on, President A was done for.
This time, L&P had chosen the giant shaman for support. It was tanky enough and had enough control, but it had no ability to restore health. It didn’t even have a shield.
Of course, it was useless even if there was a shield. Unless the talent was a real tank that could save one’s life, any ability to tank would be nothing but air under this kind of explosive damage.
