GTRSH Chapter 53

While waiting for the game to load, Yu Xinche imagined several possible ways of playing the game, and came up with solutions one by one.

“I’ll steal Rain’s damage later, right?” he communicated with He Ci.

DEATH won the last game with Rain, so he continued to choose the same hero this time. Eclipse’s ultimate skill could also add an extra layer of protection for Rain, which was a good choice.

He Ci’s Lunar Eclipse had better endurance, and Rain would become heavier and heavier, and the final burst damage of the rainstorm’s damage was considerable.

If you can grasp the timing well, stealing Rain’s damage is indeed the best choice.

However, the difficulty of the hero Hourglass laid in judging the timing of releasing skills.

Should I steal a few seconds of damage from now, or wait one second and then steal back? Or should I steal two seconds, or three or five seconds… The longer the stolen time is, the longer the skill CD will be.

In this case, most Hourglass players would tend to steal He Ci’s damage, because his Eclipse was a hero with stable output, and even if the timing of stealing was off by a second or half a second, it would not make much difference.

“It’s all right. Just pay attention to her ultimate skill.” He Ci said.

He Ci was willing to let him try playing Hourglass in the deciding game, and was also willing to let him have fun in the game. Yu Xinche was grateful for his trust, and he was in particularly good condition this time.

After playing four games, the current laning match with DEATH was the first time that Yu Xinche felt the pressure from his opponent.

DEATH and He Ci were equally capable, but their styles were very different.

During the last solo, Yu Xinche could feel that He Ci was like a dormant predator when laning against him. He seldom launched attacks, giving people the illusion that both sides were stable and peaceful, but in fact everything was under his control.

He was just waiting, waiting for the moment when he could kill with one blow.

DEATH had a radical blood exchange style. He would directly come up and exchange blood, keeping both sides in an extremely dangerous state.

He was not as patient as He Ci, always wanting to attack someone first, and that’s how he got himself killed in the last game.

He was much more restrained in this round. He had been playing for six or seven minutes, and was just quietly attacking the soldiers.

Not only the bottom lane, but the other members of both teams also played very cautiously. Although there were several exchanges, no kills happened.

Comments on the show were full of complaints about it being “boring” and “making me sleepy”, but the contestants were actually very focused.

Yu Xinche stood beside He Ci to help take damage. Suddenly, a figure flashed in his sight, followed by a beam of light and ran straight towards He Ci.

He didn’t have time to think about whose skill it was. His hands were faster than his brain and he flashed to cover He Ci!

He Ci did not flash this time. In the blind vision situation, it was impossible for him to predict the opponent’s skill direction in advance. It would be too late for him to move after seeing the skills clearly.

From the God’s perspective, everyone thought He Ci was already a corpse, but the next moment Yu Xinche actually appeared in front of him.

The commentator exclaimed: “This is BREEZE’s blindspot and he flash! Help FIX block the fatal control!”

Four people came from the opposite side, and Yu Xinche was controlled and unable to move, and was quickly killed by the concentrated fire.

He Ci took the opportunity to retreat to a safe distance and escaped.

“The opponent was clearly well prepared this time. BREEZE’s reaction was too fast. I didn’t even see him use flash.”

“Is this the reaction speed of an 18-year-old?”

“Haha. Let’s get back to the point. Although BREEZE died, it was the best result for TZ. SUG stayed here for a long time, wasting two flashes and one ultimate, only to kill one support. It was even a small loss.”

【!!】

【What a quick flash!】

【Classic move, it’s is not bad】

【18-year-old’s reaction!!】

“It was a good move just now.” He Ci praised him, “Otherwise I would be dead.”

“There are too many people.” Yu Xinche was waiting to be resurrected, and switched his view to other people. “The mid laner just killed me with his ultimate skill. How about we go and catch him?”

CONTROL: “Sure. Come on.”

After Yu Xinche was resurrected, he went straight to the middle lane. The opponent stayed under the tower vigilantly, but it was useless. Yu Xinche took CONTROL and went directly over the tower to kill the opponent.

The high tower damage was very painful, and both of them were left with low health. Seeing that the opponent’s support was arriving, Yu Xinche decisively used his ultimate skill.

The hourglass turned over on its left hand, and the fine black sand around it also floated up and condensed into the shape of a clock. The minute hand turned backwards, and their health status was turned back to 5 seconds ago.

After his health was restored, Yu Xinche switched to White Sand state, clearing CONTROL’s skill cool down time. Then he immediately activated his [Rock] to form a stone wall to block the road to delay time.

Xiao Ou arrived shortly afterwards and a 3v3 melee ensued, during which other teammates also came to support. The team battle lasted for nearly a minute before it showed signs of ending.

At this time, 4 people from each side died, TZ only had Yu Xinche with half blood left, while SUG only had the mid laner who had just been resurrected but was injured again.

At the same time, Yu Xinche’s flash happened to refresh.

When his teammates who had revived also saw it, Xiao Ou called him in the microphone: “Chase, chase, chase.”

BURN said calmly, “He’s a support, man.”

Yu Xinche turned a deaf ear to their conversation.

He stared at the other hero, unable to hear anything else, and completely immersed in the role of Hourglass.

A support’s damage was relatively low, so he must concentrate if he wanted to fight this round.

Seeing a support chasing him relentlessly, the opponent might have also become murderous, so he found a suitable terrain halfway and started to counterattack.

Yu Xinche’s positioning avoided all the damage he could and he only took damage from one ultimate skill.

The opponent’s ultimate skill [Waterfall] sent a burst of water bombs. Yu Xinche opened a shield for himself and took the huge attack calmly, with only a little bit of health left.

Then he didn’t wait for even half a second and stole the damage of the past second and returned it to Waterfall.

The transmission of damage takes time, and the specific time depends on the distance between the two parties.

Seeing this, Waterfall activated a small skill in an attempt to be immune to damage. The moment he released the skill, Yu Xinche’s lips curled up.

Just what he wanted.

In a flash, he flashed to Waterfall just before Waterfall finished casting the spell. The distance between them shortened, and the damage transmission distance was infinitely close to zero.

The water waves turned turbulent, and Waterfall had no time to struggle, and was killed by his own damage.

“Awesome!!”

“66”

“That’s so impressive, Xiao Yu.”

“I was so nervous and excited watching it!”

His hearing returned to normal, Yu Xinche’s eyebrows relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief: “I’m nervous too.”

He Ci also breathed a sigh of relief: “Great, this round is support carry.”

Both teams suffered heavy casualties in this round of team battles. The final confrontation between the support and mid laner had little impact on the situation, but it had a strong appeal to the team’s morale.

TZ became more and more courageous as the game went on. Yu Xinche appeared and disappeared mysteriously everywhere to join the team and helped his teammates get a lot of map resources.

SUG’s mid laner was silent and his performance was mediocre.

Unsurprisingly, TZ won.

The winner had to stand up and shake hands with the loser. Yu Xinche walked at the end of the team and shook hands with SUG’s mid laner PAIN. PAIN nodded to him and said, “The future is promising.”

Yu Xinche was too focused during the game, and now his mind suddenly relaxed and confused. He didn’t know what to say to him, so he just smiled at him. It was a very reserved and polite smile, and he looked obedient: “Thank you.”

This smile was captured by the camera, and the comments were full of comments saying it was so handsome.

【Handsome!!!!!】

【This is the support MVP, I said】

【Baby is cute】

【Do you guys have such a support?】

【Wow, we TZ now have a support that can be a C.】

【Looks handsome, fights even more handsomely!】

【No, he looks like a handsome scholar, so why is his game so bloody?】

【Hahahaha, He Ci found a treasure】

【Alas, looking back now, He Ci asked him if he wanted to play professionally when they first collided. How perceptive he was】

【Awesome, your vision is really sharp】

【FIX also debuted as a genius boy, so it’s normal for him to recognize another genius】

After shaking hands, Yu Xinche’s lost sanity finally returned when he was packing up his peripherals.

He asked He Ci: “Was my Hourglass handsome?”

He Ci lowered his head to wind up the keyboard cable, but didn’t respond. It was too noisy around him, so he might not have heard it.

So Yu Xinche took a step towards him with the keyboard and mouse in his arms, and lowered his head to meet his gaze.

He Ci reacted: “Huh? What’s wrong?”

Yu Xinche pulled away and stood up again, raising his head: “How is it? Handsome?”

He Ci didn’t answer immediately, but looked at him quietly for a while.

Yu Xinche rarely showed such an expression. His dark eyes sparkled, and the smile on his lips was relaxed and unrestrained. He even raised his eyebrows at him while speaking, looking a little proud.

Of course he was handsome, but he was more than just handsome.

He involuntarily took a half step back, but couldn’t help but look over again.

Yu Xinche tilted his head and looked at him.

Behind Yu Xinche was the flashing spotlights, the surrounding cameras, and the solo kill scenes replayed on the big screen all became the background colors, together forming BREEZE who was in high spirits at the moment.

“What do you mean? You can’t even praise me for this. Are your requirements so high?” Yu Xinche hit him with the keyboard.

He Ci came back to his senses: “Handsome, of course you are handsome.”

The answer was a little late, and Yu Xinche didn’t seem very satisfied. He Ci saw him narrow his eyes, nodded reluctantly, and then turned and walked backstage.

He Ci followed him, and thinking back to his expression just now, he couldn’t help but laugh.

His heartbeat had started to speed up a little bit, and He Ci raised his hand and pressed it on his chest.

He thought that it was no longer important whether he had been attracted by Yu Xinche’s beauty at the beginning, because he attracted to more than his beauty now.
