Husband, Could You Come to My Aid?
[Qingqing: Jin played that very decisively, chasing Duoduobao relentlessly. She also got a buff at the start, so Er Lin's going to have a hard time.]
[Wu Hu: Yes, you rarely see a top laner stir things up right from the start. Jin's opened up a new path: the "don't treat the enemy jungler like a human being" tactic.]
Wu Jin recalled with a sliver of health to recover, and Clear swapped lanes with her to clear the minions.
"If it weren't for me, A-Jin, you'd have been done for just now. Hurry up and thank yours truly."
If Clear hadn't kept the enemy Cassia occupied, Wu Jin really would have been sent back to the crystal. That was the understanding GOD had built among themselves, and the attention to detail of top players: not a single skill went to waste.
"Thank you."
"I'm the best, aren't I? Hm?"
Wu Jin: ...
Shi Mu's light, gentle, magnetic voice traveled through the connection to everyone's ears.
"You're gonna die~"
After clearing the lane, Clear cast a skill into the brush to check it. The next second, two people sprang out, startling him into immediately using Flash and running back.
Er Lin activated Bridge of Rebirth, crossing the bridge unhindered by any obstacles. A dark purple soul-binding line latched onto Clear, and Er Lin was about to reach his back.
"Help! Help! Hurry up and save me!"
Shi Mu leisurely headed up. "Who's the best?"
"Bro, Brother Mu, you're the greatest! Come save me!"
Shi Mu chuckled. The adorable Pangda blew out a breath and sped over to Clear, then spat out a bubble that knocked Er Lin airborne and interrupted his skill. Seeing the enemy jungler coming up, Er Lin clicked his tongue and retreated.
Clear had a narrow escape and let out a breath. "Brother Mu, you actually took advantage of me at a time like that!"
"Oh, so what?"
"Pfft."
Wantonly laughed mercilessly at him. Who told him to compete for first place in front of the captain? He'd asked for it.
In the bottom lane, bin's Dragon Spirit cleared minions quickly, allowing Wantonly to comfortably go secure vision.
He crept into the brush by the enemy blue buff, lighting up the jungle. PP passed right by the brush without expecting anyone to be hiding inside.
The respawned Yuesa followed right behind the mid laner toward the bottom lane. What they didn't know was that their movements had been seen crystal clear.
"Yuesa and Cassia are coming down."
Clear activated his ultimate, keeping a safe distance as he sprayed fire into the brush and at Vivian under the tower. Dragon Spirit stood beneath their own tower and cleared minions.
Wantonly had also planted a bomb nearby. WSK didn't have the slightest chance of starting a team fight now, so the group took a small jungle monster and returned to their lanes, left to look for another opportunity.
Shiliu's Fiora was somewhat countered by Wu Jin's centaur. On top of that, Wu Jin kept swinging her blade and pressing toward his defense tower, leaving his palms sweaty with nerves.
The centaur kept the lane pushed hard. Shiliu was under tremendous pressure in lane, and his gold had fallen to second-lowest in the entire match.
After clearing his lane, PP, who also knew Shiliu was struggling, went top to support him.
"I'm here. Wait for me to make a play."
Even if they couldn't kill Wu Jin, they could wear her down and make her afraid to join team fights.
The girl in front of the screen remained calm. She saw Fiora slow his circling and show a faint inclination to leave the safety of the defense tower.
She dragged the map to focus on the brush beside the tower. To the surprise of the enemy top and mid laners, Wu Jin went around Fiora in front of her, activated her speed boost, and slashed at Cassia in the brush.
PP was shoved back and forth by the centaur, locked down completely. The best moment to use his second skill passed, leaving him desperately hammering his ultimate.
Wu Jin couldn't have been more familiar with Fiora's positioning and skills. She could predict Shiliu's every move, so while shoving Cassia around, she also deftly dodged Fiora's damage.
Shiliu couldn't get enough stacks of his passive to unleash the seven-pointed star. With his low gold on top of that, his damage now was like scraping someone with a gua sha board.
Cassia seized an opening and activated his ultimate, summoning a giant rabbit that opened its enormous, bloody maw. The centaur held her long blade across the horse's back, her bearing magnificent.
Wu Jin bypassed the giant rabbit and brought her ultimate down mercilessly on Cassia. Cassia's health emptied, and he fell to the ground. Before the giant rabbit could do much of anything, it was recalled into Cassia's hairpin.
Fiora didn't dare fight and could only retreat under the tower. Wu Jin controlled the centaur, watching Fiora's every step. The next second, she charged into the defense tower. Before Shiliu could use his movement skill, Wu Jin shoved him out from under the tower and struck him hard with her blade. Unable to fight back, Shiliu was disarmed and fell to the ground.
Watching the centaur disappear, Shiliu's face turned deathly pale. He could clearly feel that he was transparent in front of Wu Jin, as though she knew all his thoughts. Everything had become a dead end; he couldn't beat her.
After she secured the double kill, the cameraman turned the lens on Wu Jin. The girl's striking features were cool and aloof, in sharp contrast to the decisive, ruthless centaur in the game. The fans below the stage cheered even louder, and the viewers watching the livestream clucked in amazement.
"My husband's beauty is my glory. Jin, please ravage me."
"That felt so good to watch. Whip me, please, Jin, whip me hard!"
"Are you fans from a proper channel? Is this a game livestream? Did I come to the wrong website?"
"A goddess indifferent to the world, with an abyssal maw deep in her heart-aaaah, Jin fits that character perfectly."
"Person above, here's my pen. Please write it."
[Qingqing: Jin has a huge lead now. She just bought Grandmaster, and no one can solo her anymore. It's a devastating stomp.]
[Wu Hu: As expected of an ace team, their playstyle and players are much more seasoned and decisive. Just now, Jin clearly knew Shiliu's game sense and positioning inside out. It's hard to imagine just how well she knows Fiora as a hero.]
[Qingqing: Yes, but Shiliu really did his best too. There was nothing he could do.]
Qingqing wore a proper smile, but inwardly she was already cursing up a storm. Can my damn partner shut up? Is that something you can say?! Are you going to give WSK any face at all?
At fourteen minutes, Shi Mu finished clearing the jungle just as the dragon spawned in its pit. They had four people on their side in mid and bot now, so WSK didn't dare make a move recklessly.
"Come start the dragon."
WSK had anticipated that they would start the dragon and had long since made their calculations. Wu Jin was still in the top lane and couldn't get there in a hurry, while Shi Mu had a lot of gold and might not be killed even if they caught him. So they set their sights on Clear, who was playing a utility role this match.
Er Lin activated Bridge of Rebirth. He had chosen his position well and caught three people at once. Yuesa used his second skill to cut off Shi Mu's movement, stunning him for two seconds.
Fiora teleported to mid, used a movement skill followed by his first skill, and charged into the fight, hitting Wantonly. Shi Mu activated his shield and maneuvered around Fiora.
Even though bin stood to the side, he was too squishy to do anything and was taken down by Cassia and Yuesa's combined crowd control.
"A-Jin, are you coming?"
"I'm coming."
Listening to their conversation, Wantonly suddenly thought of a scene. He coughed twice and pitched his voice high.
"Husband, could you come to my aid~"
Clear's fingers flew across the keyboard as he grinned broadly and picked up the line.
"If you call me, I must always come."
They were all 5G surfers, after all.
Shi Mu curled his lips. "A-Jin and I have a proper ship name. Do you?"
"Oh, I guess you don't~"
Wantonly and Clear: They knew the boomerang would hit them, but they hadn't expected it to come back so fast.
So what? What's wrong with not having a ship name?!
Wantonly caught the enemy Yuesa out of position, spat out his tongue to latch onto him, and detonated his bomb, crowd-controlling three people at once. Wu Jin activated Sprint and cast her ultimate.
The frozen greatsword slashed into the crowd, and the health of three WSK players instantly fell to critical levels. Their previous advantage was snuffed out in an instant.
In the end, it was one for three, and they left the fight in disarray.
After that, GOD held the overall advantage. Before long, they were wiped out in a team fight and pushed back to the crystal. GOD won the second match, and the MVP went to Wu Jin again, without question.
