Chapter 247.2: Getting three championships at eighteen, the only one!

2:1.

Although they’d been psychologically prepared, they still sucked in a breath of cold air when they saw it for real.

Chen Feng’s expression was pale, and his voice very low. “Did I do something wrong?”

After letting this game go, would they really be able to win the remaining two matches?

After avoiding L&P’s strongest line-up, could FTW win the subsequent matches?

Having to win two match points in a row, what kind of terrible pressure was that!

There was no need for him to look at the list of already used talents that the system provided. Chen Feng could think of all of them in his heart.

Which ones L&P could use, which ones FTW could use.

Under the full-game BP system, each team couldn’t only have four sets of line-ups. With both the disruption and direction from the coaches, there were no longer that many line-ups that could be taken out and used to win, play stably, and restrain the other team.

Besides, in the battle of freedom, FTW had used the immortal thief and blood warrior in the second match, as well as Bai Cai’s holy priest. In the third match, they’d used Ning Zhehan’s ice mage and Yue Wenle’s gold hunter.

There were still many strong talents left. In the fourth match, they could use the double thief or even the double dark…

Chen Feng had simulated countless possibilities just brainstorming on his own.

Don’t panic. He absolutely couldn’t panic.

Focus on the overall situation. He had to give the players confidence!

Three matches had ended, and it was time for the half-time break.

Chen Feng got up and beckoned to Tang Chen. “Let’s go, we’ll check in on them.”

Compared with the tension on Chen Feng’s side, the players who’d had two matches snatched away were in good shape. They were laughing and talking as they went to the backstage lounge.

They could hear Wei Xiao asking, “Captain, can you really play the space-time knight?”

Lu Feng: “Yes.”

Wei Xiao’s eyes brightened. “We’ve never practiced with it in training matches.”

Lu Feng: “The mechanism is similar to that of the divine warrior.”

The divine warrior was also a functional type top-lane talent. FTW had practiced with it quite a few times, and it could be considered half a support. It was very effective when used in cooperation with Wei Xiao’s shadow thief.

The double dark system and the double thief system both focused on the top-jungler playing together.

The divine shadow combo was another top-jungler option. One of them would start team fights and give buffs while the other rushed in uninhibitedly.

The former trusted the latter as they fought hard together, while the latter was the shadow thief who handed control of his life to the divine warrior as he dealt DPS for them both, carving out a bloody path.

There was no distinction between strength and weakness. It all depended on the system restraints.

Wei Xiao was a bit excited. “Then, we…”

He hadn’t even finished speaking when Lu Feng dropped his gaze and said, “We can.”

Wei Xiao: “!”

We could use the space-time knight.

Lu Feng could use the space-time knight in the next match.

Even if it was a match point game, even if they would have to pack up and go home if they lost, Lu Feng still said that they could use it.

Close had never been a rash person. He was always calm and thoughtful.

If he said it could be used, then it meant they could win with it.

Wei Xiao’s lips curved into a smile. “Okay!”

There was no unease and no pressure. There was only complete trust.

Chen Feng, who’d heard their conversation, “…………”

Could your hearts be any bigger? Aren’t you even a little bit panicked over the match point?!

They would stop in the top eight if they lost the match!

Chen Feng took a deep breath. “Don’t mess around.”

Lu Feng: “It’s fine.”

Chen Feng might be able to retort if someone else had said these words, but when Lu Feng was the one speaking, Chen Feng could only say, “…………”

Tang Chen was also stunned for a moment. “You’re really going to use the space-time knight?”

Lu Feng: “Mm.”

Tang Chen: “But…”

Lu Feng: “We can win.”

The silent backbone of FTW had actually spoken so much.

Close, who never took the initiative to ask for anything, was actually so persistent about using a specific talent.

Chen Feng and Tang Chen both fell silent.

Wei Xiao spoke up excitedly. “Yeah, use the space-time knight!”

The three little ones were still a bit flustered. Little Ning opened his mouth to say, “About that… will we be able to cooperate well?”

Lu Feng: “There’s no need to deliberately cooperate with me.”

These words carried more weight than all his previous words.

Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle didn’t feel anything, but Chen Feng and Tang Chen felt a sourness and astringency in their hearts, which surged up and spread out its bitterness into their throats.

No need to deliberately cooperate with him.

Close, who nobody could cooperate with, and who didn’t need others to deliberately cooperate with him.

Chen Feng sat down on the sofa and said nothing.

He was thinking, thinking about the line-up for the space-time knight.

Why did Close insist on using a line-up that hadn’t been used in any training matches?

A talent that his teammates weren’t familiar with – why take it out in this match point game?

Chen Feng tried to analyze the pros and cons.

The benefits were obvious: If used well, Wei Xiao would be the freest cub in the canyon and would be able to slaughter his way across the whole map since the space-time knight was suited for group fights. If its ultimate move was used well, then Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle could give better DPS output and show off in all sorts of fancy ways with their strong talents.

The disadvantages were also clearly visible: They hadn’t practiced it before, and it wasn’t clear if they would be able to cooperate with it. Also, Ning Zhehan wasn’t very familiar with that talent so would he be able to react and follow up with his skills?

––No need to deliberately cooperate with me.

This sentence from Lu Feng suddenly squeezed into Chen Feng’s brain.

The space-time knight was a talent that let him cooperate with others as he liked.

Regardless of whether it was the shield of time or the space-time prophecy, they were both skills that should be released in sync with his teammates’ skills.

Indeed, there was no need for his teammates to deliberately do anything. All that was needed was the space-time knight’s own judgement.

Whether or not he understood his teammates, whether or not he was familiar with them, whether or not he could synchronize with their skills or even predict their combo releases in advance…

Lu Feng definitely understood Wei Xiao.

Did Lu Feng also understand Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle?

Did Close understand his teammates?

Chen Feng didn’t say anything out loud, but he felt that Lu Feng wanted to prove something.

To whom…

Or maybe it wasn’t directed at any particular individual but rather, it was something he wanted to tell the world…

Chen Feng gritted his teeth and swallowed. “Okay!”

They would use the space-time knight.

After resting and going back to the arena, they entered a new round of BP.

The entire venue grew agitated when FTW took out the space-time knight.

“Is this benched talent so popular now?”

“Who is using it?? Is Caicai using it?”

“It can’t be Little Lunatic Wei, right…”

Wei Xiao had done too many fantastical things so everyone could already imagine it.

This was undoubtedly a landmine that had exploded, leaving everyone a little confused.

This included L&P.

Old G’s expression was dumbfounded. “Who is this space knight for?”

VIVI narrowed his eyes. “It’s locked in.”

Yuan Ze: “……”

Gary spoke the truth that everyone didn’t want to believe but had to. “Is Close using the space knight?”

Yuan Ze: “………………”

The commentators were also surprised, and Eurostar was left speechless.

Brother Mouth was very professional and quickly said, “It looks like FTW has a new routine.”

“They’re very brave using a new tactic for their match point.” They were also very much trying to get themselves killed!

Brother Mouth tried to continue jokingly. “This space knight can’t be for Close, right? Hahahahaha.” Then, the face slapping came with a papapa sound, swelling up this loyal fan’s face.

It really was Close!

It was really Close using the space knight!

In a corner beneath the stage, a man who was wearing a cap, sunglasses, a mask, and a loose t-shirt, sighed.

If it weren’t for the tear-shaped mole, it was likely that even Li Heran wouldn’t recognize him as his ADC.

Pro wasn’t playing, and Kim Sung-hyun’s mouth had said, “Laozi doesn’t have time to go to the scene.” But his body was honest and had run over to hide among the crowd of fans to watch the game.

Kim Sung-hyun had felt like he’d been stabbed with a knife when Yuan Ze took the space-time knight.

When Close took the space-time knight, Kim Sung-hyun once again felt like he’d been stabbed by a knife.

The proud flower’s palm-sized heart was already bleeding and dripping blood.

No one knew that Close could use the space knight, except for Kim Sung-hyun.

No one knew when Close had practiced the space knight, except for Kim Sung-hyun.

On a certain day three years ago.

Close had gone out early to pick up a lost Kim Sung-hyun and bring him back, and after returning to the base, he’d seen Yuan Ze, who’d stayed up late in the training room.

At eight o’clock in the morning, no one except for Close was awake in FTW.

Kim Sung-hyun had just been about to leave. He was especially unwilling to give up Chinese food and went to buy Chinese pancakes with fruit every morning. And then… as he walked around, he found himself f*cking unable to find his way back to the base. What was he supposed to do about that!

Kim Sung-hyun had only bought two fruit pancakes. He hadn’t expected Old Shit to be awake.

Kim Sung-hyun tiptoed away. “I’m leaving, don’t let him see.” There weren’t enough pancakes for them to share.

Close: “……”

Kim Sung-hyun glared at him. “It’s delicious! Give it back if you’re not eating it.”

Close didn’t give it back to him, but went into the training room instead.

The door wasn’t closed tightly. Yuan Ze, who had his back facing the door to the training room, cursed through his headphones. “So what if I’m playing the space knight?”

Close’s footsteps stopped.

Yuan Ze was on voice chat in his double queue. “What the hell do you know, other than Laozi, who else can cooperate with that stinky boy?”

Yuan Ze’s voice was a bit nasty. “… Getting three championships at eighteen, it’s an honor only one person has earned!”

The author has something to say:

Eighteen years old…
