Chapter 108

Thus he nodded, a smear of a wicked smile on the corner of his lips. “There’s no point just playing solo, Captain, let’s make a bet.”

Mo Huaifeng appeared a little surprised, his brows lifted slightly as he asked, “Make what bet?”

“Whoever loses shall do something for the other, but it cannot be something too much.” Ji Zhiyao’s gaze carried provocation as he spoke. “How’s that, Captain?”

“No objections.”

Mo Huaifeng lifted his long legs and stood up, walking towards the side table in the hall. “Bring your laptop over, since it’s a solo, there should be an atmosphere of being front-to-front.”

Ji Zhiyao unreservedly agreed. “Okay.”

As if having thought of something, he looked towards his teammates in the training room who had witnessed the whole course of his bet with Captain with aghast stares and said, “I’m looking for a witness, who wants to volunteer.”

He had thought that everyone would be very enthusiastic to join in the bustle related to Captain, yet unexpectedly, other than Xiaofei gazing at him with a muddled look, the others were all shaking their heads madly.

Heng frowned. “Too tragic.”

Nuo did the same. “Too tragic.”

K sighed. “He is indeed still a child, really easy to deceive.”

Ji Zhiyao suddenly had an ill feeling, swallowing his saliva, he asked, “Brothers, what are you guys talking about?”

Nuo stood up, his large hand patted Ji Zhiyao’s shoulder, his words meaning to pacify. “Since you’ve bet, so be it, do your best, even if you lose you have to lose more gracefully.”

“Would a professional jungler like me not be able to beat the part-time little rookie that Captain is?”

“You probably don’t know much about Captain’s glorious history before he joined the team... never mind never mind, go experience it for yourself.”

Ji Zhiyao was even more dumbfounded, he took several more glances at Nuo and the rest who continued gaming, then had eye contact with Xiaofei who had an innocent expression for a moment, then pulled out his phone and asked Baidu about information regarding his Captain.

[What champions can Mix battleteam’s captain Fi-god play? ]

[Best Answer: About Fi-god, he’s the local top ADC, the type that can carry the whole team. Other than the newest released ADC champions, Fi-god is very proficient with the rest (of course this does not mean that Fi-god doesn’t know how to use the new ones, he only uses them less.) By the way, according to people in the scene, before Fi-god joined the team, he was very well-versed in both jungler and ADC positions, it was only because the club felt that an ADC was more suited to lead in a match as captain... this is merely hearsay, no hate if it’s wrong. ]

“...”

Do ADCs even have to be so talented?

Was there time to back out from the solo...

Seems like there wasn’t.

Because Ji Zhiyao clearly heard Mo Huaifeng’s voice coming from the living room. “NoHomo?”

“... I’m here, one second.”

He had on a mournful expression as he called out to Xiaofei. “Brother Fei, come save me.”

Thus Xiaofei who was still baffled was dragged by Ji Zhiyao to the living room and became the judge.

Ji Zhiyao turned on his laptop, looking towards Mo Huaifeng who was on the opposite side of the table. “Solo with the usual rules, two kills and a turret down?”

Mo Huaifeng nodded. “Okay.”

Ji Zhiyao squirmed for a while, then said hesitantly, “... How about, we remove the bet?”

Mo Huaifeng sneered coldly.

Ji Zhiyao instantly became frightened and flew into a rage out of shame as he slapped the desk. “We’re betting! It’s a must! If condition isn’t enough, bring two!”

Mo Huaifeng replied calmly, “You said it, I didn’t.”

“...”

Ji Zhiyao gave himself a harsh slap deep down, then asked seriously, “Begin?”

“Okay.”

“Pick your champion.”

Ji Zhiyao first locked in the assassin in black that he used most often, difficulty was moderate; very agile; not too vulnerable to damage. He was very familiar with this champion and was less likely to make mistakes.

Whereas Mo Huaifeng took his time to pick another assassin in silver. This champion was the oldest assassin in Heroes – strong abilities but handling difficulty was very high and vulnerability to damage was below average.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The match began.

Playing against Captain definitely could not be the same as going against those coy b*tches out there, he must be extremely careful. Ji Zhiyao thought to himself.

Hence he became even more attentive.

However being attentive was one thing, he wasn’t the least bit timid. Just like now, when Mo Huaifeng experimentally stood in the 1v1 middle lane, the only lane of attack, Ji Zhiyao carrying his two blades, pounced forward with some sense of dauntlessness.

With regards to the middle lane, both of their familiarity towards it were at about the same level. Thus, at the bottom of it all, they were still competing about their individual skills and level of familiarity in grasping their champions.

Ji Zhiyao stared fixedly on the screen, due to his nervousness, the veins of his right hand that was controlling the mouse stood out slightly.

His left hand’s fingers danced swiftly across the keyboard, throwing an ability, using an auto-attack. However, Mo Huaifeng’s movement speed was also very fast, he only took an ability hit with no stun and an auto-attack before he quickly jumped to the side and broke out of Ji Zhiyao’s range of attack.

What a pity!

Ji Zhiyao inhaled deeply, silently telling himself that he could not be impatient, then turned around and began wiping out the minions.

This was an exciting and pressing match, Xiaofei at the side had even started to breathe softer.

After the situation of nobody being able to do anything to the other lasted for more than ten minutes, Ji Zhiyao finally grabbed a chance as he found a flaw in Mo Huaifeng’s defense, abruptly throwing out a combination of attacks and took his first kill.

When he saw the assassin in silver fallen on the ground, Ji Zhiyao was so agitated that his hands were a little shaky and a light sheen of perspiration had formed on his palm.

Mo Huaifeng darted a look of surprise at him, slight approval present in his gaze. “Not bad.”

This sound of acknowledgment was a calming pill more than anything for Ji Zhiyao, he pursed his lips, promptly calming down.

Yet the moment he turned, Mo Huaifeng had struck him down at the same spot as earlier.

Ji Zhiyao watched the laptop screen that had turned gray and the thirty plus seconds of countdown timing on it, and rubbed his palms together for a while.

He’d still been too anxious and actually let Captain seize a chance.

At this point, the number of kills for both sides, was one to one, and no one had managed to first take down the other’s turret.

There’s still a chance, keep steady, I could win.

Ji Zhiyao gave himself a talk in his heart, sure enough, he felt much better.

Just then, when the respawn time was up, the assassin in black instantly reappeared alive and kicking with full health on the map. He set off once more, even more cautious this time.

Mo Huaifeng made use of his respawn time and had already destroyed half of his turret. Right them the fountain did not produce more minions, while two waves of Mo Huaifeng’s minions surrounded the turret. The situation wasn’t optimistic, but Ji Zhiyao was obliged to step forward to stop things.

He first prepared his abilities, then wiped out the opponent minions as fast as he could. Currently, Ji Zhiyao was tanking the damage from Mo Huaifeng, but when his health had dropped by half, all the minions under the turret were gone and the turret began to deal high damage to Mo Huaifeng once more.

His health was dropping too quickly, in addition Ji Zhiyao was under the turret. Mo Huaifeng had no choice and retreated, till he reached a safe range.

Both parties seemed to have sunk into a deadlock again.

Just when the onlooker Xiaofei thought that his solo match would still have to go on for quite some time, he realized that Mo Huaifeng was suddenly fired up.
