Ji Zhiyao was a little flustered.
Just as he was repeatedly retreating, Ji Zhiyao suddenly heard a voice coming from above him. It sounded a little annoyed, but it was concerned. “Why are you hiding? Don’t know how to use your abilities?”
The assassin champion under Ji Zhiyao’s control lagged for a moment in his movement.
“Using the third ability allows you to go round to the back, second and first ability can be used to create a combo with your ultimate. If you can kill him do it, if you can’t then deplete him. You’re at full health, what are you afraid of?”
As the calm but slightly provocative voice sounded especially reassuring, Ji Zhiyao instinctively acted according to the way Mo Huaifeng had said. Lan Guang indeed did not expect that he would suddenly start attacking and was stunned rooted to the ground, losing more than half his health to Ji Zhiyao whose equipment was mediocre right away.
Once the stunning duration past, Lan Guang turned around to escape but Ji Zhiyao had already swapped out one of his other equipment for a better pair of accelerating boots beforehand, he chased hard, until Lan Guang fell to the ground.
Nice!
Ji Zhiyao’s eyes were bright, a bead or two of perspirations from being too nervous even hung on the side of his forehead.
“Finally some progress.”
Mo Huaifeng placed his hands in his pockets and turned around to the refrigerator to get water.
Ji Zhiyao let out two chuckles, then looked back to the game interface.
By the time Mo Huaifeng returned drinking his iced water, the corner of his eyes saw Ji Zhiyao currently helping his mid-laner to finish off the opponent’s mid-laner, his style was nimble, way way way better than his timid and cautious handling against Lan Guang earlier… Mo Huaifeng snorted, “If every time I compete the opposing top-laner behaves the way you did when you met Lan Guang, I would be able to win effortlessly all the way to the international league. ”
“…”
Mo Huaifeng continued, “All Lan Guang has more than you is a few years of playing professionally, his standard is about the same as you, don’t be like a mouse seeing a cat when you see him – if I hadn’t taught you earlier, were you going to cry?”
“…”
Ji Zhiyao’s expression was an upset one. “Captain, what has your jungler done wrong?”
“Too afraid. Where’s your punch from daring to call Xiao the mid-laner reserve when you first joined the team?”
Ji Zhiyao wanted to bury his face in the keyboard.
But it was merely a thought.
Ji Zhiyao was very clear about Mo Huaifeng’s reasons for saying those words to him.
Strategically not fighting the opposing jungler head on and being afraid of fighting the opposing jungler head on, were two different things.
Since he had chosen to become a professional player, then unavoidably, in his journey to come, he will encounter more and stronger junglers, Chinese, Americans, Koreans and so on.
By that time perhaps he would have already become stronger, but the strong are always countless, he will definitely meet opponents who are like Lan Guang to him at this stage.
If he wanted to walk towards the international league, he could not be avoiding constantly or even be afraid.
He had to adjust his mentality.
Mo Huaifeng meant well for him and why would Ji Zhiyao not know to appreciate that?
When he lost his match at hand due to a small gold difference, Ji Zhiyao quit the game, turned around and called out for his Captain with a serious expression.
Mo Huaifeng looked at him, not knowing why he was called, his chocolate brown eyes filled with seriousness, leading to the words that Ji Zhiyao had in his mouth and was about to vocalize being swept clean in an instant.
After a few seconds, Mo Huaifeng waited but Ji Zhiyao still had not spoken. He frowned, thinking that this was a new method that his little reserve was using to tease him, thus speechlessly was prepared to turn back.
At this point, Ji Zhiyao who had kept it in for a long time finally cried out. “Captain you’re really handsome!”
Mo Huaifeng was confused.
….
At Tall Boots battleteam’s base, Lan Guang stared at the large “VICTORY” on the screen in front with pursed lips, his expression hard to understand.
It was because Xiaoye was the closest to him, and noticed that Lan Guang hadn’t moved for a long time, he could not help but look over. Catching this expression of Lan Guang, he was immediately shocked, his tone serious as he asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Thinking about the match earlier.”
Lan Guang’s personality was a little arrogant and also because he was highly skilled, there were rarely any matches that would be on his mind after the match has ended, Xiaoye did not manage to hold back and leaned towards Lan Guang’s computer, looking at the stats of the match.
When he saw a slightly familiar username on the opposite team, Xiaoye was enlightened, “This person… Mix’s new reserve? His name is Ji Zhiyao right? You were thinking about him?”
Lan Guang did not hesitate and nodded.
Xiaoye recalled the match from before where he had met Ji Zhiyao, his expression became much more relaxed as he said casually, “What about him? He couldn’t possibly have beaten you right? I remember his handling skills were very average though he is not too bad in cooperating, but overall he doesn’t stand out.”
“For a newbie, he’s considered not bad, at the very least he could kill me single-handedly.”
Xiaoye sat up abruptly, not too convinced. “Killed you single-handedly? Hasn’t he just joined the team a few days ago? Probably happened while you were unprepared, right?”
Lan Guang did not deny and “mm-ed” in agreement.
Xiaoye sighed in relief, grinning. “Then he isn’t a threat for now, newbie, there are always newborn calves who aren’t afraid of the tigers, wait till he meets you again, he won’t be as lucky anymore.”
Lan Guang recalled Ji Zhiyao’s huge change in playing style earlier, deep down suddenly feeling that there was something amiss in what Xiaoye had just said.
But when he opened his mouth he realized that he did not know how to vocalize this weird feeling, so he shut his mouth tight once more and began another match.
Hopefully, things were as simple as Xiaoye had put them.
Only a newbie reserve…
The current Mix was like a chain – only as strong as its weakest link.
…
Two weeks later, at the entrance of the municipal hospital, a group of tall and skinny boys queued up and boarded a van, each of them were wearing a mask on their faces, so their looks could not be seen clearly.
When the door was pulled shut, several harsh exhales rose one after another. K in the backseat was the first to tug off his mask.”Oh my god, that was so suffocating.”
Ji Zhiyao who shared the same rotten tastes as K rarely did not express the same opinion, “I think it was still fine, it’s so cold anyways, just take it that it’s for keeping warm.”
Heng faced the reflective windows and vainly assumed several poses in various angles, “To be honest with you guys, I find that I am very handsome, I’m like a superstar here for a private visit in plain clothes.”
” *pukes*, please sober up quickly!”
Hearing Nuo’s insult, Ji Zhiyao instead thought of another person through Heng’s words. He turned his head slightly and looked towards the man sitting on the right side of the first row, behind the driver’s seat.
He had not removed his mask, his side profile was delicate and handsome, the edges clear-cut. Beneath his long lashes were two light shadows from staying up late to watch the videos of training tournaments of the various major teams, he looked a little tired, but that did not stop him in the least from looking handsome.
His own Captain’s visuals were virtually something that one could never get tired of looking at, the title of the eSports idol wasn’t for nothing.
Ji Zhiyao nodded inwardly, but heard Xiao say at this point, “I’m most aggrieved. I’m just staying in the hospital for a surgery, all these efforts make it seem like I have some unmentionable disease that can’t be known… if this spreads in the future, do I not want my face.”
