Chapter 39: You wouldn't really want to eat my minion wave, would you?

Amid laughter and cheers, Liang Yan once again cut across mid lane in front of the enemy defense tower.

Watching the spider's silhouette vanish into the shadowed path behind the blue side's F4, the GIA duo pushing lane felt a nerve start to tense in their brains.

Liang Yan indeed had his eyes on them, while fighting the F4 and switching screens to watch the bot lane minion wave.

However the GIA duo chickened out, preferring to lose some last hits rather than give an opening; Ezreal withdrew to a safe distance just to last hit for experience, until Bu Long cleared the vision behind his back and returned to lane, only then did they step forward again.

Seeing that, Liang Yan had no interest in a forced grab; he cleared the river crab on the way, then returned to his own jungle, starting with the Magic Swamp Frog and clearing the third wave of jungle monsters, passing mid lane again along the way, clearing two control wards on both sides of the river, and incidentally scaring the vampire.

Night had already been scared witless, hiding under the tower and refusing to come out.

Watching the spider return to the jungle to farm the second red buff, AP yawned boredly and complained:

"Jungler, you're holding it in! I'm so bored laning I want to go AFK!"

Liang Yan instantly delighted:

"There's such a good thing? Then go AFK quick, I'll watch mid lane for you!"

"???"

Even the bot lane was unbearable to watch, Mithy laughed hahaha:

"Never mind the kills, you still want to eat the mid lane minion wave? Jungler, act like a person!"

Liang Yan smiled without speaking.

He remained silent, and AP suddenly sensed a subtle flavor, exclaiming:

"No, I was joking, you wouldn't really want to eat my minion wave, would you?!"

Liang Yan then gave a light chuckle twice:

"No, do you think I'm that kind of person?"

After clearing the last group of Stone Armor Beetles, the entire red side jungle was spotless, but the fourth wave of Magic Swamp Frogs was about to spawn.

Liang Yan pressed recall in place, and the moment he arrived home he walked out while buying equipment in bulk:

Hunter's Talisman directly upgraded to a Level 2 Jungle Blade.

Also bought an Ethereal Essence.

Also bought two Control Wards.

His money was spent seven-eighths (i. e., mostly spent).

Yet he didn't swap his trinket for a Sweeping Lens, but kept the Warding Totem equipped.

Worth mentioning, the Ethereal Essence besides giving 30 ability power also grants 5% movement speed, priced at 850 gold; for heroes needing movement speed, this item's cost-effectiveness is off the charts.

Liang Yan headed out, and the director switched the camera back to him.

The two commentators, having learned from past experience, instantly understood the camera language; glancing at the spider's equipment slot, they immediately started exclaiming again:

"My goodness, he bought another item that increases movement speed!"

"I'm curious what his two movement speeds are now, director, give me the data!"

The director was thoughtful, immediately giving the spider's stat panel.

Human form movement speed: 453

Spider form movement speed: 474

The two commentators instantly screamed in shock.

The audience below also burst into a chorus of gasps.

In the Europe Region official livestream, the screen was full of question-mark comments.

Nearly five hundred yards per second of movement speed!

Damn, it's faster than someone sprinting!

What is this?

A monster!

The camera followed the spider-form Elise as she headed out.

From the high ground gap entering the lower jungle, following the jungle path down, turning at the five-way junction above the blue buff camp into a transverse path, then along the small path behind the right side of mid lane's mountain wall heading to the river, finally crouching in the grass at the end of the right side river wall of mid lane.

This journey could be described as a thousand miles long, yet the spider took only 16 seconds.

Mithy's Bu Long happened to be roaming mid lane; seeing the situation, he silently ran over to crouch alongside Liang Yan. Moreover this guy is quite the joker, with Bu Long under his control constantly clinging to Elise's back doing weird motions; the scene was incredibly……uh, lifelike?

The director was in a dilemma.

Looking at the situation, a fight would surely break out soon; if we switch, we'll definitely miss the start of the battle, but if we don't switch, this footage is really……

Fortunately, in the next moment Bu Long suddenly stopped.

Because Liang Yan said in the headset:

"Brother, I'm older than you."

In a calm tone, dealing heavy damage, Mithy almost choked on a mouthful of air, and his antics instantly stopped.

The instantly erupting battle eased Mithy's embarrassment.

Liang Yan suddenly struck.

With a puff, a white blob shot out from Elise's body, accurately hitting Bard coming down the slope from the opposite river bank.

Elise then transformed into a giant spider, stepping out of the brush and lunging forward, while Bu Long let out a shout and lunged in with 【Stand Tall】.

AP, aiming for an assist, flashed his ultimate from mid lane rushing in.

He was clear-headed, came over, unleashed a Q-E-W combo, then left without looking back.

As expected, the spider bit down Bard's head with one 【Deadly Venom】.

Three kills, a double kill, the game system merely announced lightly that the spider had taken a kill. Yet the GIA members felt a pressure as heavy as a mountain.

Too fast...

This spider's tempo, too fast!

While they were still guessing where his next wave of attack would come from, trying to get some vision to feel out his movement path, the next moment his skill smacked them in the face!

SONSTAR, uneasy, walked alone down Xia Lu, when the edge of the screen suddenly flashed red, drawing his attention back.

But it was already too late.

「Ohmyword! SONSTAR sleepwalked into Scorched's Lotus Trap! Then he was also hit by Deadly Splendor! Scorched wearing three-speed shoes rushed to his face and dealt damage! One shot followed by a bouncing grenade! Two shots! 」

「SONSTAR jumped away to escape! 」

「Deadly Sniper Field opens! 」

「One shot! 」

「Two shots! 」

「Three shots! 」

「All hit! 」

「SONSTAR! 」

「Just gave it away! 」

With a clamor, the venue erupted in noise.

The commentator wasn't exaggerating at all; SONSTAR's play looked like a pure free gift, like sleepwalking, he didn't dodge a single skill, and took all of the scorched's bullets.

【His play was like bronze】

One comment on the bullet screen said so.

Liang Yan, while stealing the enemy's red buff, generously gave Zven a "Well done".

Zven, however, after two seconds of silence, said doubtfully:

「No, I really didn't mean to kill him... 」

He inexplicably got a solo kill; Zven himself hadn't even come to his senses, amazing!

The two enemies down in Xia Lu were both soaking in Quan Shui, so Mithy simply didn't return to lane and followed behind Liang Yan to invade the enemy jungle.

After also wiping out a group of Stone Armor Beetles, the two went straight to Xia Lu to tower dive and cut off the minion wave.

The resurrected Bade set out to chase down, yet dared to come up and provoke; Liang Yan threw a sneaky-angled Cocoon unexpectedly, hitting precisely.

Bu Long threw out Bite of Winter, applying its passive.

Scorched contributed a long-range Deadly Splendor.

The three controls then directly locked down Bade to death.

「Oh dear, I'm really sorry, but the kill is still mine~」

Liang Yan feigned modesty with a remark, but in fact only his spider and Mithy's Bu Long could have touched Bade, so him taking the kill was completely justified.

AP made a retching sound to show contempt; the system announced Liang Yan's Killing Spree, which actually made him quite envious…

But wait.

The new jungler was recklessly killing everywhere.

I, as G2's mainstay, gained nothing……

This scene, why does it look so familiar?!
