Chapter Index

    Congratulations

    “Given Gloam’s physical condition, using a heavyweight role today should lighten the load a bit.”

    “That’s right, so the No. 1 seeded team in the European Division banned Gloam’s dominant character Thor as soon as they came up.”

    “This is really a hearty revenge.” The commentator recalled, “It seems that in a competition two years ago, Gloam player directly chose the advantageous role of Julien player.”

    As if recalling that dramatic game, the commentator lost control of his expression for a second, as if he was suppressing a laugh.

    “The camera turns to FP, let’s take a look at Gloam’s reaction…”

    “Oh,” another commentator laughed, “You can see that Gloam seems to be in a very excited state, making an offensive gesture towards the camera… Well, when he is in a weak situation, he in turn provokes the opponent. This is indeed Gloam’s consistent style -”

    The commentator on the domestic broadcast platform joked: “This may be one of FP’s tactics to interfere with the enemy.”

    Qiao Zhi almost screamed when he heard this.

    “Can he stop being so aggressive?” Qiao Zhi’s eyes went dark again and again. In such an uncertain situation, Lin An was still able to find ways to make trouble. He was truly a gifted person.

    Lin An himself looked the same as before – if you ignore the plaster and bandage on his calf.

    “Now let’s see what role Gloam will choose in the end when Thor is banned…”

    “If it’s more stable, it’s Jörmungandr with a Hokuriku background, or Kuafu, a hero from the East Continent. Their skills are similar to Thor’s, and their explosive power and resistance are relatively high.”

    On the screen, the last character card flipped, and a thin character wrapped in an unknown purple mist appeared in front of the audience holding a weirdly shaped curved hand in one hand.

    “Oh?” This flop was completely unexpected by the commentator.

    There was another uproar in the audience.

    If the character of “Shenshi” is an unpopular character in China, and there is a stage of recovery after Lin An’s several rounds of competition, then in North America, this is a choice where there is almost no such person.

    “Sprite, a character with very oriental characteristics, is quite rare in North American competitions, but Gloam has also used him in domestic competitions before.”

    “You can see that many audience members at the scene also picked up their mobile phones to search for the characteristics and skills of this character.”

    “Well… all in all, the monster is a character that tests operational skills. We can simply analyze the monster’s panel… Agility and defense are both average values. As a jungler, he doesn’t have many advantages.”

    “At the same time, the technical difficulty is full. This means that the damage of the monster needs to be increased through calculation and operation.”

    “I believe that Gloam at his peak had no problem controlling the sprites, but the leg pain caused by a severe fracture would hardly affect his micro-management…”

    When I opened the book, a biting cold wind blew over me.

    The map refreshes in the Hokuriku Icefield.

    Old Tao in the background frowned.

    The hypothermia caused by the extreme cold will continue to eat away at the health bar that the sprite has no advantage in the first place.

    For Lin An, this start was too unfavorable.

    The commentator and colleagues analyzed the strategy: “In this situation, if FP plays as a team in the middle, will it have a better chance of winning? Instead of using the forest secretly to open the way, Prometheus controlled by the Fade player will be the forward, which can reduce the probability of being attacked by surprise.”

    “I agree with you, but Gloam’s layout seems…”

    “Let’s take a look at the items that Gloam will release after landing——”

    “This time the god of luck seems to have favored him. The first item he opened was a transparent box, which allowed him to gain an observation advantage over the enemy.”

    “In this case, as a jungler, Gloam can safely stay in his own jungle… area during the time when the transparent box is in effect?”

    Lin An in the soundproof cabin, under the assumption of explaining “conservative combat”, took the lead into the opponent’s jungle area with lightning speed.

    “…” This famous North American speaker was blank for a second.

    Fade smiled “hehe” and said, “International friends from far away, are you surprised? Our captain will not act according to your script…”

    Before Fade finished speaking, he ducked sideways to avoid the cold arrows fired by the opponent. The fire was splashed, intercepting the opponent’s mid laner’s offensive.

    The red fireworks ignited the ice field, and the fire of hope has not been extinguished for a long time, twisting into charred shackles at the feet of the opponent’s midfielder.

    Blocking the enemy’s path, Fade takes advantage of the situation and attacks.The burning boulders rolled down from the mountain and swept down, and the opponent was about to fall under the boulders.

    The transparent box flashed, and the monster’s scimitar harvested the ice dragon dormant on the cliff bank.Lin An didn’t hesitate at all, and immediately retreated after taking down the team’s attack bonus.

    A second before the flaming boulder fell, Julien climbed up the steps from the glacier and slashed sideways with his scarlet sword, rubbing the boulder and causing a spark.

    “In this moment of respite, Julien opened the door for his teammates!” the commentator said excitedly in response to the screams of the audience on the field.

    “Really?” Lin An sneered and murmured: “Where are you running…”

    Thinking that he had escaped, the mid laner, who wanted to touch the blue berries to regain his health, ran headlong into the thick purple-black fog.

    Bright red blood dripped from the scimitar, and Gloam had been waiting on his only path for a long time.

    FP-Gloam kills TK-Krieger.

    “Wow–” The field was noisy.

    The commentator stood up and said, “At the 13th minute of the game, the first kill of the game finally occurred. Congratulations to Gloam, it’s so exciting.”

    After Lin An completed the first kill, FP’s momentum increased greatly.

    The camera once again showed Lin An in a close-up, and his hair flashed from his temples to his cheeks, and there seemed to be a winding water stain.

    “The evenly matched confrontation between the two sides made it very enjoyable for the audience to watch, but this kind of pulling and pulling still seems to be a big burden for the Gloam players.”

    “Speaking of which, Gloam and Julien are very interesting as captains of the wild kings who have been in love and fighting each other for many years. The two often fought to the death in the World Championship, showing a kind of entanglement that is constantly being resolved and confused.”

    Outside the screen, He Chen, who was watching the game attentively, raised his eyebrows.

    However, the commentary touched on something in He Chen’s heart. Lin An’s injured leg would increase his physical and mental exhaustion during the game.

    Qiao Zhi called Lao Tao, “Isn’t it too risky for Lin An to bring out demons? Did you order it for him?”

    “…” Lao Tao didn’t even want to say it, “If I could influence his thoughts, he should be recuperating in the hospital instead of appearing on the field.”

    The two of them were sulking over their phones, but He Chen spoke at this moment.

    “Since the captain has a monster, he must have considered the current situation before the game.”

    “So do I still want to praise him?” Old Tao laughed angrily.

    “Lin An won’t do anything he’s not sure about.” He Chen said.

    Qiao Zhi couldn’t care about them and used this time to find the team to write two post-game statements.

    Hechen didn’t want his teammates to bear the curse and participate in the game, so he responded to fans’ questions live under pressure.But his body had not fully recovered, and he was already a little mentally exhausted at this time, but he refused to close his eyes.

    After harvesting TK’s mid laner Krieger, Lin An and Fade joined forces to flank Julien.

    Julien put on the invisibility cloak, and TK’s top laner also crossed the line to support.

    Venus wanted to defend herself, but Lin An refused.

    “Venus is closing in on the top lane, and the contract will most likely be refreshed.”

    TK’s top laner moved to the middle lane, hoping to use Julien’s invisibility cloak to act as an ambush.

    “Want to play 2V2?” Lin An chuckled, “I’ll satisfy you.”

    Fade and Lin An rushed toward the opponent’s top laner one after another, and the monster’s scimitar scraped purple-black water marks on the ice field.

    The transparent box disappeared, and behind Lin An, the sparse vegetation on the ice field moved lightly——

    The scarlet sword was unsheathed.

    However, the slow-moving monster seemed to have eyes on its back, moving sideways at the critical moment——

    The sharp blade penetrated the purple mist and stabbed straight at his teammates.

    Julien immediately turned around, and the charged skill attack failed.

    This empty body was enough for Lin An to capture his position.

    The monster’s scimitar slashed diagonally, hitting Julien’s arm, which was still under the invisibility effect.

    From an invisible perspective, Julien’s health bar dropped by one-third.

    Unable to harvest in one blow, Julien immediately retreated to compensate.

    However, the scimitar’s attack was not over yet. On Julien’s retreat, the purple-black blade swept across him, perfectly predicting his position, and dragged him out with a strong wind.

    From the overall perspective that he could not see, the demon’s blade had accurately circled his course of action on the ice.

    There is no escape.

    Fade followed Lin An’s prompts and controlled the boulder to roll down——

    Julien’s figure reappeared among the boulders.

    FP-Fade kills TK-Julien.

    Krieger resurrected from the Promised Land and took Julien’s place.

    “Are you playing wheel fighting?” Fade spun around and ignited the fire, “We are your ancestors.”

    Lin An has been endlessly calculating the refresh time of the contract since the beginning. He glanced at the cleaning area on the mini-map and quickly marked the upper and lower directions.

    KT’s top laner’s third skill was refreshed, and he flanked Fade with mid laner Krieger, but was replaced by Fade.

    Krieger, the survivor, did not dare to take advantage of Lin An, so he retreated while replenishing his status, waiting for Julien’s resurrection.

    Wherever the monster’s scimitar passed, the ice sheet was surrounded by a damp mist, covering up a little golden light stuck between the ice layers.

    After Coco and Lay dug out the refresh point in the lower lane, they ran directly to the middle lane to meet Lin An without any hesitation.

    It was too late when Julien realized the problem, “Kris, stop Gloam, he is going to-”

    Lin An curled his lips, opened his second skill, and the ice around him fell away.

    The tip of the knife was raised, and the contract was already in hand.

    Forty-three minutes before the start of the game, the winner was already decided.

    The game was going on step by step, and when the winner was settling the score, Qiao Zhi couldn’t help but have red eyes.

    He turned around to celebrate with He Chen, but saw that the person on the hospital bed had closed his eyes at some point.

    The mobile phone interface that fell beside the bed stayed in the text message window with Lin An.

    The message was sent five minutes ago, before the victory of this round had come.

    [Congratulations on your triumph.】

    On that day, the FP team firmly locked in the top eight with a 2:0 advantage, directly breaking all the negative comments about FP on the Internet.
