A short while passed again, Ji Zhiyao was almost suffocating and hastily pushed Mo Huaifeng away. “Captain you’re trying to kill me.”
Mo Huaifeng glanced at his swollen lips and appeared to be very satisfied. “Go back.”
“What? I even took off my pants and you’re telling me this?”
“If not? You want to experience the real thing in a foreign land? I actually don’t mind.”
“No no no, good night Captain!”
He dashed out of Mo Huaifeng’s room, then glanced left and right to ensure that no one was around and swiftly ran into his own room.
Lying on his bed, Ji Zhiyao turned blank as he lifted his hand and touched his lips.
…
Three days later, Mix and Vita competed against each other for training.
They started a match of 5v5, Xiao and Xiaofei were spectators.
The match began.
Ji Zhiyao’s opponent for this match was Vita’s jungler Wu. Last night, before bed, he had even watched several short videos of Wu in competitions. Overall, Wu was a defensive player. He would not take the initiative to plunder the opponent’s jungle and would defend his own side of the jungle exceptionally well, not giving the opponents an opportunity to strike.
Since it wouldn’t be easy to counter-jungle, he would not do that.
Hence Ji Zhiyao leisurely jungled, if he could use his auto-attack he would not use any abilities, his movements were so incomparably slow that Heng even suspected that he had fallen asleep.
Heng: “Brother are you alright there? Hyun Woo’s gameplay is super aggressive, I’m afraid.”
Ji Zhiyao: “Why are you becoming exactly like K? Without me to gank with you, you totally cannot take care of yourself anymore?”
K: “Excuse me? Could you not curse me blindly? I did not say anything at all.”
Heng saw that Ji Zhiyao was not coming at his call and instantly cowered back to hide under his turret. Yet the moment he had retreated, he saw a figure flash past in the bush, Heng shrieked at once, but a good look showed him that it was the opposite support Qee and he could not help but exclaim, “WTF? What kind of dirty trick is this! I thought it was Wu, gave me such a scare.”
“It could even be Sung Min who went to gank you but Wu would never. Pal, please lower your voice, otherwise our Korean friends would think that us Chinese players only know to shriek and wail when we encounter trouble.”
“Damn it!” Heng was enraged, but when he saw the champion that Qee was using, he could not hold back and continued to rant. “Do you guys see what he chose? A mage? Is it right that a support is using the same champion as a mid-laner?”
K: “If you’re capable enough, go to Heroes Headquarters and get them to give you a special privilege. In the future whoever is an eyesore to you, you can ban whoever you like.”
Heng: “I have realized that you guys are especially against me today.”
Mo Huaifeng: “After all we’d just learned that, it was you who suggested to Yuan Wei to buy that flowery shirt of his.”
Heng suppressed it for a while and could not hold back anymore. “Why is Qee staying in the middle lane, shouldn’t he be ganking on K with Sung Min?”
K was very pleased. “Yeah, that’s why I’m feeling quite comfortable now.”
Heng: “NoHomo come here fast ! Your weak, pitiful and defenseless mid-laner is about to die !”
Ji Zhiyao: “You’re so noisy.”
Ji Zhiyao could not do anything to this idiotic mid-laner who could not live without himself and left the creep that he was attacking halfway alone, rushing off to the middle lane.
Yet midway, he was stopped by Qee who had jumped out of the bushes. As it was too sudden, Ji Zhiyao had already lost half of his health before he could react.
He swiftly took a few steps back, yet while Qee’s mage was slightly slower in movement speed, he was still fast and managed to intercept Ji Zhiyao in a few steps. Then he threw a stunning ability on him, and Ji Zhiyao instantly died.
Ji Zhiyao: “Heng you mutt! Didn’t you say that Qee was staying in the middle lane? Why did he jump out at me?”
Heng: “Damn, brother you failed in the first bout. I was teasing Hyun Woo earlier, didn’t notice that Qee had gone behind me.”
Ji Zhiyao: “Screw you!”
At this time the game effects sounded, Mo Huaifeng had single-handedly killed Vita’s top-laner Lucia, the gold gap between the two teams evened out slightly.
Ji Zhiyao’s spawning time ended and he plunged into the jungle once again, this time, no matter how Heng called out for him, he just wouldn’t go gank the middle lane. Up till Heng was killed under the turret by Qee and Hyun Woo in the middle lane, Ji Zhiyao bided his time and stunned them with his ultimate and harvested two kills directly.
Nuo witnessed the whole course and laughed till he was sprawled out in his chair. Heng was filled with grief and indignation. “NoHomo, what is this grudge you have against me?”
Ji Zhiyao put on an indifferent face. “Do you really have no idea what grudge and enmity there are?”
Heng tried to weep. “Damn it!”
Just both teams had essentially reached level 11, Ji Zhiyao noticed that Wu was intending to go for the little dragon and thus sent a signal to gather. “Dragon, dragon, if we don’t go for it now it’s going to be stolen.”
At this point, K had already died twice, he was holding up against both Qee and Sung Min in the top lane and was slipping slightly. “You guys go ahead. If there are enough people there, NoHomo come to the top lane, I’m about to die. Seems like our Yao-god isn’t in form today, roaming the whole time and not helping us to gank huh.”
Ji Zhiyao: “Isn’t daddy here trying to build up all of your independence?”
K: “Are you asking for a beating today?”
Ji Zhiyao grinned, he saw that Mo Huaifeng was very at ease against Lucia, Heng, though straining, could still hang in there for a bit more with Nuo’s help… Hence, he said to Mo Huaifeng, “Captain, while your second ability is available, give two arrows to K’s side, I’ll go steal the dragon before going to help him.”
Mo Huaifeng agreed with an “mm”, then released two arrows in the direction of the top lane.
His angle was especially accurate and both hit Qee who was in the front at once. Qee retreated speedily after being dropped to half of his health, and things for K eased up.
On Ji Zhiyao’s side, he had already begun to 1v1 against Wu.
In reality, Ji Zhiyao was at a disadvantage. Because the assassin he had chosen was an early game champion, the longer the match, the more tiring it would be for him. Though their levels weren’t that high now, the trend was beginning to show.
Ji Zhiyao himself was of course aware of that, hence he wished to end things quickly and was engaged with Wu very quickly.
Both of their handling standards were evenly matched, yet Ji Zhiyao was still more inexperienced, he lost 200 to 300 points of health more than Wu in a short time.
Ji Zhiyao retreated, seeming like he was intending to escape. The distance wasn’t obvious, yet Wu read him very clearly, Wu immediately rushed forward-
Ji Zhiyao used his flicker skill and appeared behind Wu. With his hand speed from being single for 10 years and all three abilities, Wu with half of his health left was promptly finished off.
Ji Zhiyao sighed in relief, intending to fight the dragon with the shred of health that he had, yet an arrow came flying from the top lane and pinned him to the ground.
His screen became black and white.
In the past, it was always him inciting Mo Huaifeng to kill others with one shot, now he was finally experiencing for himself how it feels like to be nailed down.
This was probably the feeling of paying with one’s life.
