There was almost no need to ask. At that moment, Shi Ming could guess the thoughts of his teammates beside him.
Catching up to the strength of the Seven Kings and Four Emperors?
Compared to his teammates' disbelief, Shi Ming had no other choice but to smile bitterly in his heart.
In this match, the opponent he was facing …
An existence that once stood at the level of the Four Emperors, or perhaps even stronger.
However, even though Shi Ming thought so in his heart, he could only shake his head at his teammate's question. His tone was rather helpless and bitter as he replied, "Yes.
"Nothing."
I was careless … "
He paused for a moment and then added the last sentence in an extremely complicated tone.
"The captain on the other side is very strong."
In fact, Shi Ming's heart was also filled with incomparably complicated emotions at this moment. There were a few traces of regret and regret. Although he had already raised his spirit to 120,000 and carefully prepared for battle at the start of the match, the facts proved that …
He still underestimated his opponent.
Perhaps this had something to do with him not fighting with someone for too long.
Four to five years.
It had been so long that although he still firmly remembered the dazzling figure of a certain person who was almost invincible in the professional eSports circle, the memory of fighting with that person was inevitably a little vague.
Even in a corner of his heart, there was a faint thought —
After all, so much time had passed. The "person" on the other side had already left the professional eSports circle for many years. Perhaps his strength and condition were not as good as before?
There was nothing wrong with this thought at all.
Because according to common sense, after a professional player retired, they naturally could not continue to maintain their peak competitive state. Some players whose condition had deteriorated to an exaggerated extent were even less than 60% of their previous level.
However, the facts were placed in front of him like ironclad evidence. It made Shi Ming extremely regretful, and he once again deeply recalled a lesson:
No matter what the situation was.
Don't underestimate M-God in the slightest!
Because in the professional eSports circle back then, those who dared to underestimate M-God …
All of them were completely dead.
…
"One hit from the captain —"
Lv Zhong, the support of Team Seven Leaves, frowned slightly.
"And we have to lose at least one wave of minions?"
After experiencing the shock of his teammate, Shi Ming, being single-handedly killed by the opposing captain, Lv Zhong was the fastest to adjust his mentality. In his opinion, although this matter was shocking and unbelievable, it was not unacceptable after he calmed down and thought about it.
Even if it was Ah Ming, there would still be times when he made a mistake.
Of course, the fact that the enemy's captain was able to seize Ah Ming's mistake and decisively single-handedly kill him was already enough to show that the enemy's strength was not to be underestimated.
In that case …
Under such circumstances, Lu Kainan had lost a kill and a health. Even with Shi Ming's strength, he would not have an easy time in the following lane.
This was especially so in a high-level game where there was no support from teammates. The solo lane on the top lane allowed one side to take the lead, and it was very easy to snowball the advantage.
"It's a little difficult."
Lv Zhong frowned and made his judgment.
If the opponent's captain was just an ordinary passerby expert, then he could still believe that Shi Ming, with his strength, could still turn the tide even if he was one head behind. But now, his evaluation of the captain's strength had been raised to a whole new level, and the problem was a little troublesome.
Shi Ming smiled wanly and nodded when he heard his teammate's evaluation.
"Yes."
"It's my fault this time."
Indeed, as mentioned earlier, this round was his own mistake. No matter how careful he was, he still underestimated M-God's strength. He directly seized the opportunity and forced a kill.
That hand speed …
And the precise control of his skills and the ability to calculate damage.
Even now that he thought about it, it was enough to make Shi Ming, who was a top LSPL top laner, twitch his eyelids —
His condition had deteriorated after retiring from the professional circle for many years?
What a joke.
Even if he returned to the professional esports circle now, M-God's current condition was enough to directly compete with the top group of strong players in the world!
But then again, after losing a kill and a health on the top lane, he lost at least a wave of minions. His Kainan continued to face M-God's captain on the top lane, and he was really at an absolute disadvantage.
Looking for a jungler to help him gank?
Just then, the jungler of Team Seven Leaves' second team took the initiative to speak.
"Brother Ming, why don't I go to the top lane and help you gank a wave?"
Shi Ming shook his head and directly rejected the suggestion.
"Don't.
"It's useless even if you come."
After the lesson just now, his memories of the fight with M-God had been recalled bit by bit. Especially when one's strength level had reached M-God's level, a Captain would gain first blood to establish an advantage in the early game. Then even if he let his teammate's jungler Widow roam over to help gank, it would probably be useless.
In fact, with the current level and development of his Kainan and his teammate Widow, it was very likely that the captain would take a double kill in a 1v2.
"Then what should we do?"
Lv Zhong frowned.
"If you get snowballed on the top lane, it will be very troublesome for the captain to clear the map."
Shi Ming naturally understood this.
Moreover, the opponent was M-God's captain. He could foresee that the "troublesome" index would definitely increase by several times.
But —
Shi Ming took a deep breath. It was not completely impossible for him to solve the problem.
"Lu, don't go back to the bottom lane.
"Kill another wave of minions."
…
After the previous wave of intense 3v3 battles, the Blue and Purple junglers had already left the bottom lane of Summoner's Canyon and returned to the jungle to continue farming or to return to the city to replenish their supplies.
At the same time, the support players of both teams were still controlling their respective heroes to stay in the lane.
This was also relative.
After all, if one of the teams chose to return to the city before the minions were dealt with, then the opponent could immediately push the minions to the bottom of the tower. By the time the first team rushed back to the top lane, they would have lost more than one wave of minions for nothing.
Therefore, the players of both teams could either have their minions stay in the center near the river mouth and return to the city, or push the minions to the bottom of the tower and return to the city, while the other team quickly cleared out the minions at the bottom of the tower and return to the city.
Logically speaking, after the fierce battle just now, although the ADC and support heroes at the bottom lane did not have too much health left, they had also accumulated quite a lot of money to develop for such a long time. They could already choose to return to the city to replenish their equipment.
In the beginning, Tang Bingyao and Ceng Rui, who were at the bottom lane of Team Awesome Internet Cafe, had the same plan.
They could just leave the minions near the river mouth.
Everyone went home.
No one lost out.
Even Tang Bingyao and Ceng Rui saw that Hammerstone and Policewoman were channeling back to the city not far away.
But in the next moment, the duo at the bottom lane suddenly canceled their return to the city action and pressed forward again. It seemed like they wanted to push another wave of minions.
Ceng Rui frowned.
"They're still pushing?"
"Is it because their ADC is a bit lacking in money?"
This speculation was very objective and logical because there seemed to be no other possibility. The Widow Jungler on the other side was already at full health, and it was impossible for her to go down to the bottom lane and initiate a second gank.
Tang Bingyao nodded, agreeing with Ceng Rui's judgment.
However, the girl subconsciously felt that something was wrong. Although she couldn't tell the reason, there was a faint sense of insecurity.
