TRMLCM Chapter 58

Chapter 58: King

The game downloaded quickly, but after installation, it needed a slight update. During this brief wait, Cheng Yi enthusiastically explained the gameplay of King of Glory to Shen Chang’an.

Berber, having finished his cat food, couldn’t help but come over, perking up his pointy ears and staring at them with round, unblinking eyes, as if he too was captivated by the topic.

“Nickname…”

After the update, upon re-entering the game and logging into his WeChat account, a prompt popped up on the screen.

Okay, it seemed Shen Chang’an really hadn’t played this game before, not even logged in.

Seeing Shen Chang’an furrow his brow slightly, contemplating a game nickname, Cheng Yi’s eyes flickered.

“An’an, let me do it for you. When we get into the game, we’ll have to go through the tutorial. I’ll help you get through it quickly.”

Shen Chang’an blinked, too lazy to think, and directly handed him the phone upon hearing this.

A few minutes later, Cheng Yi returned his phone. Seeing Shen Chang’an’s curious look, he was afraid the other might accidentally enter the game, so he quickly said, “Wait for me a bit, I’m logging into my own account now.”

Shen Chang’an softly hummed in agreement, obediently holding the phone, merely looking at the game’s main interface without any action.

‘An’?

Looking at the name below Berber’s cute photo in the upper left corner of the main interface, Shen Chang’an silently read it out in his mind.

Was this the game nickname Cheng Yi had just chosen for him?

It was… very ordinary.

He had thought, based on the other’s personality, that he would choose a very cool and arrogant name.

Shen Chang’an looked at the character, his face remaining impassive, but in his heart, he nodded with great satisfaction.

Although ordinary, he liked it very much.

“An’an, I’ve added you as a friend, accept it… Here, click here, done.”

As Cheng Yi spoke, he leaned closer, reaching out to help him operate quickly on the screen. Shen Chang’an also shifted slightly, allowing him to see the screen more clearly from the side.

The low, magnetic voice had just finished speaking when the slender fingers had already completed the task.

But Shen Chang’an blinked. Although Cheng Yi’s speed was fast, his eyes had inadvertently caught a glimpse of the name.

‘OnlyLoveAn’ requests to add you as a friend.

‘An’,

‘OnlyLoveAn’…

A trace of a smile appeared in his eyes, and the crimson corners of his mouth quietly lifted slightly.

“What should we play?”

Shen Chang’an’s gaze fell on the game interface. There were several sections, two of which were locked and unavailable to him. He wasn’t very clear about what they represented, so he asked Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi buried his head, his slender fingers tapping away at the screen, doing who knows what. His deep voice sounded, carrying a hint of reassurance, “Wait for me a little longer, almost done.”

Soon, he looked up, “An’an, give me your phone.”

Shen Chang’an handed it over. This time, he also leaned in, watching Cheng Yi’s fingertip operations.

Mail, system mail, quick claim…

Friends, intimate relationships, application list…

OnlyLoveAn, wants to become your lover: Let me protect you forever.

Opening the interface for this relationship application, Cheng Yi quickly glanced at Shen Chang’an beside him, then lowered his eyes, his slender, straight fingertip falling without hesitation.

Accept!

The next second, a system notification appeared…

Intimate relationship established successfully…

Not only that, but their lover relationship level directly increased to level 4.

Cheng Yi had been playing King of Glory for so long that he had accumulated a large number of intimate relationship items in his inventory. If there weren’t a limit to how many intimate items could be sent to the same person in one day, he would have already sent the intimacy level to tens of thousands.

“Alright, An’an, we can play now.”

Cheng Yi said calmly, as if he hadn’t just done anything.

Shen Chang’an didn’t really understand any of this, but he understood the lover relationship.

A hint of blush appeared on his fair cheeks. He nodded and accepted the invitation Cheng Yi sent him.

Their ranks were too far apart, so they could only play normal matches.

“What do you want to play?”

During the hero selection phase, Cheng Yi hadn’t even chosen his own hero yet, but first, he introduced Shen Chang’an to a few heroes with simpler controls.

Looking at the unfamiliar hero portraits, Shen Chang’an randomly clicked on each of them.

“Fire burns the butt~”

“Have the plum blossoms in my hometown bloomed?”

“The river’s sword comes from the heavens.”

“Bright as the wind, swift as an arrow.”

…

Finally, at Cheng Yi’s suggestion, he chose a girl with two deer antlers on her head and even used the other’s shared skin.

Although Shen Chang’an’s account was still Bronze, Cheng Yi’s account rank was high, so the teammates in this game were basically all King rank or higher.

Cheng Yi played Marksman, and at the beginning of the game, he threw a skill into the fountain. When Shen Chang’an slowly moved the directional keys, walking somewhat crookedly out of the fountain, he said, “An’an, see the hero in front of you? That’s who I’m playing. Just follow me.”

Shen Chang’an: “Okay.”

Cheng Yi, playing a relatively weak hero in the early game, could still suppress the enemy Marksman, Gongsun Li, under the tower while teaching Shen Chang’an how to build items.

Yao’s skills were very simple, and Shen Chang’an quickly got the hang of it. Having just been hit by the enemy for half his health, he still fearlessly ran in front of Marksman to block the damage for him.

Well, maybe newbies were just that fierce…

“An’an, retreat, you’re going to die.”

Cheng Yi looked at the slender figure of the little deer girl holding a staff and rushing forward, his brow furrowing. Seeing that his ultimate was ready, he quickly used his second skill to move over and ‘swish’, directly activating his ultimate plus a stun.

‘First blood!’

First blood was taken directly.

But he wasn’t particularly happy. Only when he saw the well-behaved and adorable little deer girl safely return to the tower did he breathe a sigh of relief. While clearing the minion wave, he glanced at Shen Chang’an’s perspective and said, “There’s a health pack under the tower, it can restore health, eat it.”

After Shen Chang’an ate the health pack, his health only barely recovered to half. Then, he ran out again. Cheng Yi glanced at his level and wasn’t in a hurry to hit the last small siege minion, waiting for the deer girl to slowly walk over before he cleared the minion wave.

Now, Yao’s level had finally reached four.

“An’an, your ultimate can go on my head, click it.”

Shen Chang’an clicked it, and Yao instantly flew onto Marksman’s head.

Seeing him come up, Cheng Yi returned to his own tower and then clicked recall. After that wave, both of their states weren’t very good and they needed to replenish.

“An’an, now you can just use your ultimate whenever it’s ready. Watch your Brother Yi carry you and dominate the canyon.”

Listening to his arrogant words, Shen Chang’an’s brow lightly lifted, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he chuckled, “Alright, tonight I’ll just wait for Brother Yi to carry me and dominate.”

…

It had to be said that Cheng Yi’s skills were indeed impressive. Marksman plus Yao, the two of them directly rampaged through the King’s Canyon, running all over the map. The enemy was terrified and huddled under the tower, afraid to come out.

The enemy’s jungle directly became theirs, and the enemy jungler trembled, not daring to say a word.

“An’an, take the blue.”

“An’an, the enemy’s red.”

“An’an, there’s low health, use your first skill to poke.”

…

Unfortunately, their teammates were also very bad. The jungler couldn’t leave the jungle for ten minutes, couldn’t develop, and their record was also a disaster. The mid-laner and top-laner were also lovers. When the top-laner died, the mid-laner ran up to feed, and then they became a pair of doomed lovebirds together.

Cheng Yi suppressed the enemy so much in the early game, but he still allowed these three teammates to feed the enemy.

[Jungler: Can the mid-laner even play?]

[Jungler: You’re not even warding? My jungle was directly stolen by the enemy.]

[Mid-laner: Aren’t you in the jungle yourself? You didn’t even defend it, now you’re blaming me?]

[Mid-laner: Am I your mom? Spoiling you.]

[Jungler: I *]

…

Alright, the teammates even started arguing.

[Top-laner: Didn’t you receive nine years of compulsory education? Can’t even recognize Chinese characters?]

[Jungler: *]

…

Looking at this familiar game environment, Cheng Yi frowned slightly. If he had encountered this before, he wouldn’t have paid attention to these people, but now…

Looking at the person beside him who had already hung the hero on his head but was still earnestly moving the directional keys, his heart inexplicably softened.

[Marksman: Lie down and don’t make a sound.]

…

At fifteen minutes, Cheng Yi was leading Shen Chang’an to fight the Tyrant when their three teammates in the mid-lane directly started a team fight with the enemy.

3vs5

Complete defeat for our side.

After hitting the last sliver of health off the Tyrant, Cheng Yi led Shen Chang’an directly into the crowd, activating his ultimate and attacking. With the addition of the stun, the enemy was directly killed by his spin, leaving four dead.

Double Kill

Triple Kill

Quadra Kill

Only the enemy jungler survived with a sliver of health.

Shen Chang’an saw that he was about to run away, his brow lifted, and he subconsciously wanted to stop him, directly releasing his first skill.

Ace.

Seeing their own minion wave come over, Cheng Yi directly led Shen Chang’an towards the enemy crystal.

[Jungler: Yao, why did you steal someone’s penta kill?]

[Jungler: The marksman is too good, add me as a friend to play together]

Cheng Yi snorted lightly and casually typed.

[Marksman: I don’t play with trash]

With the last auto-attack, the enemy’s red crystal exploded open with a ‘bang’, and they won the game.

Marksman: 15-0-6

Yao: 5-0-19

Casually glancing at the MVP settlement interface, Cheng Yi happily returned to the room, and heard Shen Chang’an beside him slowly and perplexedly ask:

“T,r,a,s,h, what does that mean?”

Cheng Yi: ╭(°A°`)╮
