This space breaking gate had been placed perfectly.

The distance between Lu Feng and Wei Xiao just now could be said to be at the maximum range for the skill. One was on the top lane, while and the other was in the bottom jungle zone, and the distance between them spanned nearly the entire map.

Under normal circumstances, the top-laner couldn’t provide support for a fight in the lower jungle zone, but the space warrior could.

He could break open space and save someone at the tipping point between life and death.

Tang Chen, who was to the side, lowered his voice and said, “This operation really pushes the limits.”

As another top-laner, he could see more details.

Without mentioning how Close had managed to reach level six in such a short time, just releasing this wave of skills was very astounding.

The space breaking gate had a very wide range, but it also had very powerful limitations.

How to release this skill within an effective distance, how to release it at the right moment, how to grasp Wei Xiao accurately…

All of these things required operational skills.

Not to mention ordinary players, even Tang Chen, who’d been playing as a top-laner for so many years, had no confidence that he’d be able to pull it off.

The failure rate was too high, and there was a 90% chance that the ultimate move might be wasted and drag back nothing but a corpse.

Indeed.

The space breaking gate couldn’t be cancelled, even if what it dragged back was a teammate’s corpse.

Wei Xiao’s health had dropped too quickly. As long as Lu Feng had miscalculated even slightly, then it would have all been in vain.

Sometimes, a 5v5 team fight was like a series of dominoes. If one of the dominoes in front fell down, then everything else would collapse, and it would be difficult to save anything.

Therefore, most players sought stability; if they could maintain the rhythm, then they wouldn’t try to strive for greater benefits.

Close clearly hadn’t done so.

He wouldn’t give up any chance and was also confident enough to show off such extreme operations.

The space breaking gate saved the shadow thief.

Close’s previous words weren’t in vain. There was a reason why he’d had Wei Xiao enter stealth mode.

The reason?

In order not to waste time, Close had opened the space breaking gate from the big dragon cave so Wei Xiao was faced with an ancient creature as soon as he landed.

If Wei Xiao wasn’t in stealth mode, then he wouldn’t have been released from combat mode. If he was still in combat mode, then he would have aggro-ed the ancient creature.

Based on the tiny sliver of health he had left, he’d be done for as soon as the ancient creature scratched him with a paw!

Then he’d really be dead.

Chen Feng, who was settled on a sofa in the corner, bit his thumb. “Impulsive!”

Tang Chen laughed easily. “It’s not considered impulsive if he succeeds.”

In Chen Feng’s eyes, this wave of operations was simply crazy.

Close’s operations had really reached the limit, but the key to whether he could save Wei Xiao or not depended on Wei Xiao’s cooperation.

If Wei Xiao’s reaction wasn’t fast enough or if his hand speed was insufficient, he wouldn’t have been able to open up stealth the moment he came out of the space breaking gate. In that case, all of his previous efforts would be wasted.

Fortunately, the two of them were able to do it, executing the maneuver precisely.

If this scene took place in a proper game, in the high-profile competitive arena, it would likely make the audience go crazy and be included in the global wonderful cuts collection. The fans in the China competition zone would also be able to praise it for a whole year!

Close and Quiet were shoulder to shoulder as they left the dragon cave together.

Chen Feng could see a wider perspective, and his pupils contracted fiercely. “Not good!”

Who was Yan Jiang?

What kind of team was Y1?

They were last year’s FMVP, last year’s global champion team. Would they let them go so easily?

Almost instantly, while Wei Xiao remained in stealth looking for a safe place to return back to the base, two beams of light fell to the ground. The elemental shaman and the power thief arrived at Y1’s top-laner’s side at the same time.

What made the situation more deadly was that Y1’s top-laner was very close to Close. It was obvious that he’d received instructions to lock in on the space breaking gate’s position.

Tang Chen took a breath. “Old Yan may be old, but he’s still vigorous.”

As an old teammate, Tang Chen couldn’t say that he was unfamiliar with Yan Jiang.

This former captain of his was very powerful. The feeling of being his teammate versus the feeling of being his opponent was very different.

Precise control, a prediction ability that could anticipate what others would do, and a certain strong understanding of all the talents, professions, and skills.

He’d obviously guessed Close’s position when he saw the space breaking gate appear behind Wei Xiao.

The space breaking gate’s range was 80 yards, with Wei Xiao as the end point. Considering the fact that Close was in the top lane and that the skill operated within a circular radius, if he wanted to open the space breaking gate within the shortest amount of time, over the most extreme distance, then there was only one possible point they could be at.

Yan Jiang opened up the minimap and accurately pinpointed the big dragon cave.

Y1’s top-laner was very attentive and had already sped over, and when he was in place, Yan Jiang and their jungler teleported over at the same time. Once their teleport skill finished casting, they landed only half a second later than Wei Xiao.

The situation changed dramatically!

Close saved Wei Xiao, but the two of them were now under attack.

The situation was now very dangerous.

In the mid-lane, Ning Zhehan was being completely blocked from leaving. In the bottom lane, Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were up against Y1’s ADC but couldn’t gain much of an advantage.

Outside the top lane’s dragon pit, Close and Quiet were faced with Y1’s top-laner, jungler, and support. It was an absolute hell mode situation.

Lu Feng: “Stand back.”

He said this to Wei Xiao.

Wei Xiao inexplicably thought of how he’d saved Yan Jiang that time in the opening game. It had also been one against three, but the situation wasn’t the same. He had equipment and skills in the big brawl, but this was now a 5v5 game, and it was impossible to fight 1v3.

However, although he was thinking that, Wei Xiao was actually very calm.

He was in critical health and would just be sending himself to his death if he went up now. It would be better if he took advantage of the fact that his stealth state hadn’t been broken yet and quickly slipped away.

The captain had worked so hard to save his life. He couldn’t just give it to the other side for nothing.

Wei Xiao retreated. Chen Feng let out a breath of relief. “That’s good.”

Close might not be able to leave, but from an overall perspective, keeping Quiet alive was still the best option.

The shadow thief urgently needed to develop. It was a talent that relied a lot on its farm, and once it died in the early stages, it would lose its jungle clearing rhythm. Once its level and equipment were unable to keep up, the power of its light arcs would be reduced greatly, and it wouldn’t be able to deal out any damage at all.

It was different for the space warrior. This was a talent that tended towards functionality. Even if it didn’t have as much farm, Close’s micro operations could still produce amazing results.

This round of exchanges was already pretty good. It had already been the best choice they could make.

However, Close never thought of dying so simply.

At the moment when Wei Xiao retreated in stealth mode, his spear gun landed on the ground, inserting itself in front of the elemental shaman.

There was a bang as special effects exploded, just like a loud provocation.

FTW.Close.

Y1.Yan

Three years later, these two faced off for the first time.

A top-laner and a support. Could they fight?

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

They could. What they played with weren’t skills but psychological games.

Lu Feng forced the elemental shaman to retreat, and Yan Jiang changed the direction of his spell cast. The totem that he’d been planning to toss at Wei Xiao was now inserted at Lu Feng’s feet.

The space warrior was guided by its gun and would attack where the gun landed. There would be no mistakes.

But when it came to things that even ordinary support players could do, Yan Jiang naturally wouldn’t make any mistakes, either.

The daze totem landed on Lu Feng, forcing his body to go out of control for a short time. At the same time, the power thief and the death knight’s damage swept over, causing the space warrior’s health to drop sharply.

Under normal circumstances, few players would surround and fight a space warrior because his ultimate move could easily allow him to escape super far away, at a distance their enemies couldn’t catch.

But…

Close had used his life-saving skill on Wei Xiao. At this time, he only had a very short movement skill that could be used with his spear gun. It would be very difficult for him to escape from this group fight.

Chen Feng suddenly felt a bit reluctant to watch on.

How many times had the elemental shaman accompanied Close to get triple kills, quadrakills, and even pentakills in the past?

But now, today’s elemental shaman’s totems had turned black and were filled with the heavy aura of death as they landed on Close’s body.

He didn’t know why, but Chen Feng’s heart felt extra chaotic when he thought of Close dying at Yan Jiang’s hands.

Yuan Ze, Xie He, and Kim Sung-hyun may have refused to take part in the singles competition due to guilt.

However, when it came to Yan Jiang, it was simply that he didn’t want to participate.

Yuan Ze had vaguely guessed at what the 18 year old Close wanted to do.

But Yan Jiang had said to Close directly, “It’s not necessary.”

He was very clear about what Lu Feng was trying to do and knew exactly what he wanted to protect, but he’d already signed a transfer contract and was the first person to decide to leave.

Not necessary.

Was being so persistent unnecessary?

Was protecting what he wanted to protect unnecessary?

Was sticking with FTW so unnecessary?

Chen Feng didn’t know, and he didn’t think Close knew, either.

Tang Chen’s voice called him out of his thoughts, “He made it out alive!”

Chen Feng looked up sharply and saw that Close had managed to escape with a sliver of health left.

His eyes widened slightly; he was a little dumbfounded.

Tang Chen’s voice was excited, “The space warrior’s attack was a bluff! Old Yan got tricked. I always feel that Close has been led astray by Little Lunatic Wei that even I believed his act just now!”

Chen Feng steadied himself and looked over, but he’d already missed the wonderful scene from earlier.
