Chapter 623: Changzhang, hurry back and clean up the house!

What is he trying to do?

Seeing Mang Seng walk into the red buff camp, Ai Luoli thought for a moment, then instinctively felt that Mang Seng was going to place a ward over the wall into the brush where she was.

— Mang Seng got first blood, went home and directly crafted a tier‑2 green blade, added his accessories, and went out with three fake eyes already equipped.

Ai Luoli didn't have time to think it over; as he approached the scouting fruit, a light wave suddenly flew from behind the wall and Pa— hit him.

Ai Luoli wasn't panicked, nor overly wary; he just felt the other side was casually throwing out a skill out of habit, because he himself had that habit.

As for Mang Seng actively starting a fight, Ai Luoli hadn't even considered it, because in his view that was basically suicide—after all, Mang Seng had no flash.

The result was that, in the instant the light wave hit, Mang Seng immediately kicked over.

When that kick took off more than one chunk of his health, Ai Luoli was dazed, and his gaze instinctively flicked to the minimap.

Gragas had already passed Triangular Grass, being less than two thousand yards from Ai Luoli, while Flandre's Kennen had just entered the jungle; the vision from the ward placed in Triangular Grass when Gragas came to support showed that the point of battle outbreak was nearly three thousand yards away.

Below, Scout's Kassadin had already entered the river brush, also less than two thousand yards from Ai Luoli, while Zyra was estimated to have just come down from high ground!

Comparing junglers, although Rengar hadn't gone home, he still had a jungle knife, his health had dropped a bit, but after all a level‑4 versus level‑3 fight makes their health roughly equal! Moreover, the tier‑2 jungle knife Mang Seng crafted at home only serves to place wards and increase jungle‑clear efficiency, giving no stat bonuses.

So Ai Luoli couldn't figure it out—

Bro, did you misclick?

Even in a 1v1 I'm not afraid of you, let alone I still have teammates!

Isn't this just pure feeding?!

Besides that, Ai Luoli couldn't find any other explanation.

No sooner said than done—after Mang Seng's kick came a flurry of punches and kicks, but Ai Luoli's reaction wasn't slow either; he quickly began to counterattack.

"Q landed, it would go straight to m... wow! Jiao Shen kicked up!"

"But Ai Luoli's reaction was also fast—after AQ he pulled back and turned for another AQ! Both are burst‑damage champions, their health dropping extremely fast; it even looks like Jiao Shen lost more health, now down to less than half!"

"Can't win! Jiao Shen used W to scout the eye and ran toward F6, but it was useless—because Rengar was right in the brush! He lunged straight out of the brush!"

"Danger! It feels like Jiao Shen is going to die!"

"Gragas hit the Explosive Fruit, the projectile bounced back and landed, a body‑slam impact pulled him in, then followed by a rolling barrel explosion! Jiao Shen is down to a sliver of health!"

"Nautilus rushed over with Swiftness! I tried to shield Jiao Shen with a skill‑shot, but didn't manage to apply it! Jiao Shen was killed by Rengar's basic attack! Ai Luoli's health was also low and he had no flash! He was blown up instantly by Nautilus's Q‑W combo!"

"Oh what a pity! It feels like we were just a tiny bit short of putting on the shield—otherwise Jiao Shen should have survived!"

In the EDG players' section, Ai Luoli looked at the screen that had turned black‑and‑white, his expression a bit dazed. He exclaimed in surprise: "No, how is he so fast?! I shouldn't—damn, how did he get here so fast?!"

Scout, who hadn't even had a sip of soup, clicked the second summoner‑spell slot of Zyra, silently turned back to mid lane. A Guang's Gragas also withdrew from the river.

Ai Luoli froze for a moment, then slowly uttered: "What the hell? What is this, coming over with Swiftness?!"

Scout didn't respond to him, just returned to lane with a dark face, preparing to clear the wave with all his might; otherwise, when Zyra comes back later, he feared the hard days would have a silver lining.

Only Meiko blandly said two lines: "Ai Luoli, don't stir up trouble—we'll just take it slow; we have something to fight you at every stage, so why rush?"

Ai Luoli gave an embarrassed laugh and dared not make a sound.

The fans of both sides at the venue were shouting loudly, the arena buzzing extraordinarily. The commentators' voices kept echoing, exchanging their thoughts on this play at breakneck speed and with excitement.

"Another one‑for‑one! And it feels like EDG is slightly at a loss again—because Ai Luoli is a two‑kill‑zero player, so he has extra bounty! Although the split gives each VG member only a little, VG actually gains more team benefit from this kill than EDG does!"

"Yes, and in the kill distribution VG is also better—VG's mid laner Zyra took the kill, while EDG's jungler took it; it's obvious that Zyra taking the kill would be more useful!"

"Not only that, but the most crucial thing you know? Look at Zyra—Rengar's two buffs have been transferred onto him!"

"Ah!"

"Oh! This!"

"So Scout's lane matchup from now on will be extremely unpleasant!"

Miller glanced at the lower part of the big screen, and just then the EDG players' view switched to Scout's webcam. Seeing Scout's expression, Miller couldn't help but chuckle:

"No wonder Scout's face is all black—Kassadin versus Zyra is inherently a disadvantageous lane, and up to now Scout had been holding on with his own skill, but then the jungler handed the enemy a double buff! Who could stand that?"

"Yes, and given Zyra's champion traits, he will perfectly make use of the two buffs—his basic attacks already hurt, and with red buff they hurt even more; his cooldowns are naturally fast, and with blue buff they become even faster! Plus, he doesn't need to worry about mana, giving him limitless firepower!"

"And Zyra even took the kill!"

"I can't take it anymore—how do you play this? Mid lane feels impossible to handle!"

"It's just too painful… this wave… Ai Luoli the teacher brought a bad rhythm."

EDG fans hearing this were naturally unhappy.

What does that mean?

EDG is clearly ahead—well, objectively speaking one could call it a tie—but how did it become, in your commentators' mouths, that EDG has no chance of winning?

Your bias is sky‑high!

Add some troublemakers who enjoy the chaos and stir things up, and the chat in the livestream is bursting with joy.

Thus the chat started arguing.

【Hahaha, dying of laughter】

【Scout: Ai Luoli, your family's gone】

【Is the commentators' bias too huge? Shouldn't commentators stay neutral when casting a match? Too professional!】

【Guan Zeyuan is the most professional—let Guan Zeyuan come give EDG two mouthfuls of healing, please, I can't stand EDG anymore, sob sob sob】

【That said, this wave of Ai Luoli really whets the appetite】

What the hell, you bastard second prince, Changzhang, come back and clean up the sect!
