Chapter 1284: End Game (24)
The adc player nodded in agreement and said, “Exactly, what was wrong with me?”
They exchanged a look and then fell silent. After a moment, one of them said, “Since we are going to lose this game anyway, and we had a bad start, we’ll just let them play. We’ll do a proper job in the next match.”
Everyone nodded simultaneously.
Some of them talked softly among themselves.
“So Best Actor Shen knows how to play Lot games!”
“But didn’t he hate playing video games in the past?”
“I remember that once some celebrities organized a gaming tournament, but Best Actor Shen declined participating without thinking twice.”
“So what’s Best Actor Shen doing now?”
As everyone puzzled over this, Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan were already starting their match.
The opponent’s mid player and another player were immediately after Qiao Lian.
She hid under the tower and did not come out. Then the enemy’s players could not wait, so they climbed over the tower in an attempt to slay her.
It was too late for her to retreat, so she might as well charge forward. With a series of highly-complex maneuvers and agile moves, she managed to dodge the opponent’s numerous attacks. Eventually she succumbed, but in the course of it she killed an enemy.
Finally!
That was the first kill of the day for this team.
The people watching saw how quickly her hands were moving over the keyboard. The speed of those movements was dazzling. Only a mere few seconds had passed in the game, but those hands had performed a long series of maneuvers in fact.
Eventually, Qiao Lian died together with the opponent, but the people watching cheered her, “Great moves!”
She had managed to kill an opponent player even when surrounded by enemies. For sure, these were the sort of exemplary moves one would see in textbooks.
Her retaliation, at the same time, finally brought a semblance of hope back to the people.
However, in no time, this bit of hope was dashed.
Because their two players in the top lane had been captured by four enemies, and both players were slayed.
Qiao Lian: …
She looked at the gap between the two sides and sighed, saying, “This match is going to be a tough game.”
Because earlier on in the game the team had suffered too much loss, the enemies had managed to level up.
Their opponents were equipped to completely crush them.
The result was that now, the enemies could kill whoever they wanted.
There was no way to stop them.
When Shen Liangchuan heard what she said, he contemplated it in silence for a moment and then said, “Stay calm, give me some time to level up.”
They were suffering badly in the top and bot lanes now.
The adc player on bot lane had no chance to level up at all.
Hence at this point, Shen Liangchuan did not join the group.
Qiao Lian nodded at his words.
After she had recharged fully, she continued along mid lane.
At this point, from a particular angle, she spotted four enemies among the foliage of the mid lane.
Immediately, she narrowed her eyes and she said, “There are four enemies here!”
When the rest of the team heard this, they immediately exclaimed, “Let’s fight them!”
Shen Liangchuan instructed the support that was protecting him, “Go over and help out there.”
But he stood there and moved slowly.
The support arrived at the mid lane.
Qiao Lian analyzed the situation. It was four against four, for sure. They wouldn’t be able to win the battle.
The only thing they could do now was to buy time so that Shen Liangchuan could level up. If that happened, then he would be able to cause grave damage.
Hence Qiao Lian narrowed her eyes and fixed her gaze on the middle lane, saying, “Listen to my instructions from now.”
The three other players had already been convinced by her performance, hence they nodded.
She started, “Support, take a step forward and show your presence.”
The support did as he was told.
“Come back now!”
The support could not keep up with her instructions and immediately fell under the enemy’s control.
