Gary arrived at the top lane one step ahead of Wei Xiao. Invisible in the grass, his position was perfect.

Although Commentator Brother Mouth was a Close fan who liked to praise him, he had to praise Gary this time around. “This positioning is very on point. He can see the enemy providing support immediately and block the other party’s way. Once the death knight manages to latch onto the shadow thief, Close won’t be able to escape!”

Would Close be surrounded and pincered to death from the front and back?

What were they thinking?!

Were the training matches they played for nothing? Was FTW’s coaching team there for nothing? Was the information that Captain Fu had sorted through personally all in vain?

Or did they think that Close’s brain wasn’t good enough to remember those routines that he’d figured out clearly a long time ago?

None of the above.

In the end… Yuan Ze had only just switched forms and hadn’t yet swept out his blade when the shadow thief had already started his assault, using a shadow attack to land a mark and retreat to the furthest possible distance.

His shadow attack combo didn’t break, and what was even more shocking was that he had avoided both Yuan Ze’s attack and Gary’s mark!

L&P’s team chat.

Gary: “Sure enough, badass.”

They’d known early on that they may not be able to hold him, but they hadn’t expected him to be this slippery.

It was fortunate that the one using the death knight was Yuan Ze, and the one with the shadow thief was Gary. If it was anyone else, then they would have ended up either dead or injured.

Similarly, it was a good thing that the Close was the shadow thief or else Gary would’ve taken First Blood a long time ago!

This round wasn’t like the jungle zone invasion. Gary wasn’t about to leave until he’d obtained some results, and not only did he not leave, VIVI had also rushed over from the mid-lane.

At this time, Wei Xiao had just arrived at the dragon pit and was halfway to the top lane. Ning Zhehan gave him a signal. “President V went up!”

Wei Xiao had already seen his direction from the minimap. “Mm.”

Ning Zhehan followed VIVI closely, not willing to let L&P have a three against two fight.

At this moment, Wei Xiao was faced with a choice.

Would he continue supporting the top lane, or would he turn around to catch VIVI with Ning Zhehan?

The audience, who had the god’s perspective, noticed this problem quickly. The commentators had already tossed this question over to Eurostar-star to deal with.

Although Eurostar wasn’t as sharp as his own captain, as the core of TPT and the Godly Calculator’s darling, his vision was no joke still. “Considering the overall situation, it’s better if he supports Ning Zhehan and ganks VIVI. The zither warlock is weaker than the earth mage in the early stages, and although Ning Zhehan is stable, his defense tower has already lost one sixth of its health. If they continue to let it go like this, the zither warlock’s development phase will be extended, which would be a poor outcome for the overall battle situation.”

He paused, then continued: “And VIVI has always been a cunning player. It’s very difficult to gank him deliberately; this is a rare opportunity.”

This was a very comprehensive comment. He gave a full range of advice that took into consideration the situation, talents, and the players’ temperaments.

So, how would Wei Xiao choose?

The audience just wanted to watch the excitement. “Go to the top lane!! Hurry up and help Close kill those two dog men!”

“Little Ning, drag down VIVI so that Quiet and Close can have a 2v2 against Yuan Ze and Gary!”

“Take down the top lane! I want to see FTW take down all the towers in the top lane today!”

Wei Xiao paused for about 0.5 seconds, then took action!

At first, the director had given the audience a shot of the top lane. The first thing they saw was Close rushing forward half a step. It seemed like he was going to fight!

Close had gone up. Was it because Quiet had decided to support the top lane?

That was what the audience thought, as well as the three players from L&P.

Gary: “Quiet’s coming up!”

Close’s actions were tantamount to telling them that there was someone behind him.

Yuan Ze didn’t make a sound. He stared at the minimap and watched Ning Zhehan’s positioning.

VIVI: “I’ll get rid of Ning Zhehan.”

That was the appropriate course of action. If VIVI was able to reach the top lane first, then the two jungler kings from FTW would be done for on the top lane today.

“That’s not right!” Yuan Ze, who’d been keeping an eye on the area, noticed that something was off. “Quiet wouldn’t take so long… F*ck!”

Sure enough, even before he finished speaking, the kiss of the blood raven landed on VIVI’s head, accurately controlling him. It was followed by a combo from the blood thief. By the time VIVI could move, the zither warlock’s skills had also been tossed over. Chords hit his body, providing both strong control and DPS.

The earth mage’s name might sound similar to that of the earth shaman, but the two of them were very different talents.

One’s health was as thin as paper, while the other was tough and thick. What they had in common was that they both had strong control skills.

However, the problem was that an earth mage who had been controlled first could only be done for.

He couldn’t even activate a flash skill. Of course, using it wouldn’t make much sense since the blood thief would kill him anyway.

In this canyon, life and death were separated by only this short second.

System Announcement––

First Blood!

FTW.Quiet killed L&P.VIVI!

Quiet happily picked up First Blood. FTW was off to a good start!

Cheers rang endlessly from the audience, even as a bloody battle broke out on the top lane.

When the announcement that Close had been killed popped up, the live broadcast audience and the live audience at the scene both felt a sense of incredulity.

The great demon king had been killed…

Five minutes into the start of the game, Close had been killed…

Looking at the games across the whole competition zone, as long as Close participated, his death count had always been very low. Let alone when it was only five minutes into the game.

Trading VIVI for Close?

Had FTW really gotten the advantage in this wave?

Countless people began to question this, and their hearts even started to feel cold.

When a player was so iconic, his death wouldn’t be as simple as just losing experience and gold coins. It would result in a sharp drop in momentum!

The most important thing in a game were these intangible feelings.

Momentum, confidence, state.

Once they sustained damage, any good team could scatter like grains of loose sand.

This…

Not only the audience’s expressions, but even in the commentator booth, Brother Mouth’s expression changed slightly, hinting at concern.

However, all this gloom soon dissipated, and the haze disappeared…

Sunlight covered the canyon and lit things up for everyone!

The blood thief used two feather transforms and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at the top lane from the dragon pit. Immediately after that, black feathers covered the sky, the raven landed, and the kiss of the blood raven wrapped around the death knight.

When Gary landed, he used shadow attack to leave a mark on the blood thief. Wei Xiao didn’t even try to avoid it and took the mark before instantly opening up his ultimate move.

With blood as an oath, and dark feathers as servants.

The deep scarlet special effects made it seem like the entire top lane defense tower was bathed in a rain of blood.

He took the damage from the defense tower and made use of his shocking blood sucking ability. Wei Xiao’s health bar suddenly fell down to a seriously injured state, then soared back up to half health like a roller coaster, but he didn’t stop at all. His combo was overwhelming, his damage increasing wildly with the amount of health he sucked in.

The death knight and shadow thief who’d used up all their skills in order to kill Close could only wait to die!

System Announcement––

FTW.Quiet killed L&P.Marshal!

FTW.Quiet killed L&P.Gary!

FTW.Quiet double kill!

Heated applause broke out in the venue that had fallen silent when the great demon king fell to the ground!

This was a godly start to the match featuring a godly Quiet who’d gone beneath the tower to get a double kill like a dream, killing the strongest top-jungler combo in the world!

The little lunatic had avenged the great demon king!

This scene shocked many people.

Whether it was the live commentators and audience, the fans and haters in the lie broadcasting room, the melon seed eating gossipers on the internet, or even L&P’s hardcore fans back in North America,they were all shocked.

He became famous with one fight.

FTW.Quiet gained worldwide fame with this one fight!

No matter who it was, as long as they’d seen the scene just now, they would never forget this blood raven thief, and they would never forget this jungler player. They wouldn’t forget his decisiveness at pouncing on his opponents, and his ferocious killing techniques.

Regardless of his own life or death, the two of them had to die!

Forcibly bypassing the tower just to send the two of them back to the crystal!

In the backstage guest seats, Fu Li’s lips curved.

Although there was no camera present at the moment, they were also discussing the situation.

The retired player who’d been invited as a guest said, “The new generation is amazing!”

Fu Li hit the nail on the head. “Close is amazing.”

Everyone noticed the blood thief, and everyone saw that dazzling ray of light. Everyone saw the brilliant sun that illuminated the haze.

But there were others who saw the fallen shadow thief, the shadow thief who’d created enough opportunity for the blood thief. They noticed the vast and deep sky behind the scorching sun.

In the first wave of group fights between FTW and L&P, Quiet had traded one kill for three, and Quiet, who had taken three kills, was now far ahead of everyone else!

This was the result.

But without the initial setup, how could there be such results?

Taking advantage of this time when the game was proceeding steadily, the director opened up a small frame and quickly played back the group fight just now.

Close had been the first to make a move. He attracted Yuan Ze and Gary’s attacks and created the illusion that Quiet was about to go to the top lane. After VIVI relaxed his vigilance, Quiet’s kiss of the blood raven controlled him, and Ning Zhehan took advantage of his long range to continue the control, allowing the two of them to kill VIVI almost instantly.

In the top lane, Yuan Ze and Gary certainly wouldn’t give up until the very end. This move of Close’s had not only created opportunities for Quiet, but had also put himself in danger.

Based on the replay, based on Close’s strength, there was at least a 50% chance that he could retreat back under the tower and protect his own life.

However, Close hadn’t retreated!

He knew that at such a close distance, Yuan Ze wouldn’t give him the chance to brush out light arcs, but he still insisted on starting them up. It wasn’t for the sake of killing two people on his own, but to cheat the other side out of all their skills!

The death knight switched between the two forms, perfectly interrupting his marks. On the other hand, Gary had his captain to help him pave the way, and his own light arcs started up quickly. He brushed out eight light arcs, causing an overflow of damage that was enough to kill Close!

The great demon king fell to the ground. Yuan Ze and Gary had only just taken a breath of relief when the blood raven thief rushed over.

At the time, Yuan Ze had immediately yelled, “Withdraw!”

There was no way to fight. The blood raven thief hadn’t used its ultimate move just now. If he dove in, he would easily be able to kill the two of them.

Unfortunately, Gary was still up in the air. By the time he landed, the blood raven thief was already nearby.

And then… Quiet took a double kill!

During this series of events, it looked as though Quiet had done an excellent play, but in fact, it was Close who’d created this opportunity.

The old fans who understood this scene all burst out into tears.

How many years had it been?

How long had it been?

They were always looking forward to seeing the great demon king playing one against nine and winning the game, but they’d already forgotten that Close also needed teammates.

It wasn’t that Close couldn’t create the right conditions for his teammates, but that others couldn’t catch onto the opportunities he created!

Now, there was this god-like tacit understanding, this cooperation that didn’t need words!

Close just needed to let himself go and do it, and it was fine even if he was killed, because…

There was someone behind him.

He had a teammate who he could trust with his life!
