Chapter 219: Then I'll just feed

~7 min read 1,307 words

Actually, Liang Yan had been clearing camps all along, with no intention of engaging.

Xia Lu and Zhong Lu both lacked lane priority, so Liang Yan, after clearing three camps in Shang Ban Qu, first ate the upper river crab, then continued clearing downwards.

When he was clearing the red buff, Leopard Woman engaged in Zhong Lu; AP played safe, directly used Flash, aiming to give no chance at all.

After Liang Yan cleared the Stone Armor Beetle, he glanced at top lane; Lao Zhang had already teleported back to lane and had just pushed a big wave into the turret.

Ekko, in order to save a teleport, chose to walk up to lane, causing him to miss a large half-wave, including the cannon minion.

Moreover, the next wave was also a turret-pushing wave.

Liang Yan judged that Ekko had no opportunity to teleport and cause trouble; although he was likely already spotted by RNG's wards, Xia Lu should be safe.

So he pressed recall in place.

The result was that Liang Yan never expected: although RNG had no opportunity, they insisted on causing trouble, and just as Liang Yan arrived home, RNG directly attacked Xia Lu.

Moreover, they brought a 4v2 with the top laner.

Looper didn't even want the big wave that had just entered the turret, directly teleported to the ward Leopard Woman placed behind enemy lines, coordinating with three teammates to surround and trap the G2 duo inside the turret.

At first, RNG's poke was decent; four members threw all their abilities at Ezreal, Zven used both summoner spells but was still killed by Ekko and Flash.

But trying to engage the Robot was absolutely impossible, because the Robot has a passive; in the early game, those several hundred shield points that appear out of nowhere can make one feel hopeless, and moreover Ekko is only level 4; before he has his ultimate, RNG's lineup simply cannot withstand two turret shots overheating, so after killing Ezreal, RNG immediately retreated.

Just then, the Robot suddenly threw a hook.

In a pleasant mechanical sound, mata's Thresh was hooked back to under the turret.

RNG members dared not turn around, only able to watch as the low-health Thresh was beaten to death by the Robot.

"Even though we traded a 4v2 for one kill... this doesn't seem very profitable."

"Actually it's fine; although we used a lot of summoner spells, the enemy also used four, and after all it's a support for an AD carry trade, we still came out ahead!"

Guan Zeyuan silently glanced at the minimap; on the top lane, the turret was frenetically burning minions, and Bo Bi was happily hammering the turret with his hammer, eighty, eighty, eighty...

You call this profit?

Even without a trade, this wave couldn't be called profitable, let alone after trading one.

However, if we ignore the top lane, RNG did indeed profit.

Liang Yan headed out toward the lower high ground gap, while signaling his own F4 and communicating with teammates over the mic.

When Leopard Woman just retreated, she disappeared from the blue side's lower second turret jungle gap; Liang Yan judged that Malaxiangguo should be able to time the respawn of the blue side's second group F4, and would likely pass by to counter-jungle this camp.

Liang Yan entered the lower jungle from the high ground gap, met Mithy's Robot at the four-way intersection opposite the red buff camp, and proceeded to envelope the F4.

At the same time, Perkz's Ryze placed a ward through the wall in Zhong Lu.

Sure enough, a leopard appeared.

The three small birds were already dead, leaving only a large bird with a little over half its health.

Liang Yan immediately realized that Malaxiangguo hadn't watched his Leopard Woman jungle clear video; otherwise, this large bird would already be dead.

Malaxiangguo is also bold; after being revealed by the ward, he still lunged at the large bird, seemingly intending to finish this F4 before fleeing.

Thus, when the Man Gun and Robot appeared from the direction of the red buff camp, he could no longer escape at all.

"Damn! Damn it... I'll stall for time, you guys push the lane quickly!"

In RNG's team voice channel, Malaxiangguo's frustrated curses rang out.

After the turret dive ended and he went home to replenish stats and change equipment, Uzi immediately shouted:

"Holy shit, don't feed the Man Gun!"

It seems the previous game, Liang Yan's Man Gun repeatedly 1v2 burst killed him, leaving a psychological shadow; Uzi, upon seeing the Man Gun go for a headshot, immediately started to panic.

Malaxiangguo remained silent for two seconds:

"Alright, then I'll just feed."

Saying that, he marked Ryze through the wall and then lunged after him.

Ryze retaliated with a Q-E-W-Q combo, killing the Leopard Woman who had survived a turret shot during the turret dive, leaving her with only one-third health and no Flash.

Before the Leopard Woman fell, Liang Yan scored an assist with a single wall-penetrating smoke grenade.

Meanwhile, Mithy's hook could only fly over the Leopard Woman's corpse, ultimately not even getting an assist, and was then criticized by Perkz:

"Shit! Mi Xi, are you crazy? You actually dared to steal my kill!"

Mi Xi retorted indignantly:

"Damn! Did I get the kill? I was just afraid your skill would miss and he'd run!"

"Damn damn, I won't miss a point-blank skill even with my eyes closed!"

"Damn damn damn, this is called a safety measure! Do you understand safety?!"

"Damn damn damn damn, you just want to steal my kill!"

Liang Yan ate the large bird and then continued clearing upward, while listening to the mid laner and support bicker; playing the game was like listening to a crosstalk, his life was extremely comfortable.

Even better, he had just finished clearing the Magic Swamp Frog when the second group of river crabs also spawned, conveniently appearing in the upper river lane; Liang Yan picked it up along the way, and at the same time lamented over the mic:

"Hey guys, am I hacking or something? Why do these river crabs keep farming right into my face?"

Instantly, he drew unanimous contempt from his teammates.

Even Lao Zhang couldn't help but complain:

"Don't take advantage and act cute; if the System God hears you, it'll make you farm the opposite direction and you're dead, I'm telling you!"

Liang Yan immediately shut up.

Although it feels unrelated to his own system, but what if?

After finishing the river crab, he placed a ward for top lane, then recalled in place.

On the LPL commentator desk, Wawa also complained indignantly:

"This Man Gun's luck is really good; the river crabs always seem to spawn on the lane where he has priority!"

The camera panned away from the Man Gun and switched to Perkz's Ryze in Zhong Lu.

At this moment, Ryze, who had gone home to buy items, arrived after the mid lane's first tower; the minion wave had already been pushed into the tower by xiaohu's Varus, and this wave includes a cannon minion that can drain much health from the incoming blue-side minion wave reaching the tower. If Perkz doesn't push hard, the next wave will still favor the red side, meaning it won't be possible to push through for a while.

Liang Yan, who had already arrived home, pinged a signal upward, marking a clear position:

Lu Ka, control the wave here.

AP hesitated:

Isn't this a bit hard to act?

No need to act, just come.

Then it's simple!

Perkz laughed twice, stepped forward and used his body to hold back the red-side minion wave that had reached the front line, preventing it from entering the tower, and only let the minions take over the aggro after his own minion wave emerged from below the tower.
