The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

"Why did you stop ahead?" Sun Hou asked, as Han Cheng and the others had already stopped.

"Why don't we just go and take a look..." Sima Yi said, jogging over. He found it strange to see Sun Wukong and the fat man; this guy was really acting strangely...

"Brother Ma, you've come at the right time. We're on holiday today, and we just won another 50,000 yuan from Xing Batian. We've all decided to find a place to have a good meal..." Han Cheng said.

"Stop!" The fat man ran over. Although he was a bit muscular, he was quite fast. "Brother Ma, didn't you say you'd treat us to dinner and you'd pay? Let me treat you, Brother Ma, pay!"

"Uh... I'm surprised you, little fatty, still remember..." Sima Yi thought to himself, but out of pride, he didn't say it aloud. Instead, he said against his will, "Fine, when has Brother Ma ever gone back on his word? I'll pay the bill!" At the same time, Sima Yi secretly regretted saying that in the first place; now the fat guy actually remembered...

"That's great! Brother Ma is really great! I'm going to eat my fill today!" Sun Wukong said.

Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Sima Yi thought to himself, "This monkey is so thin, how much can it eat? Let it eat as much as it wants. But that little fat boy is different. I'll have to talk to him to distract him and get him to eat less so we can save money..."

however……

It was the same hotel Sima Yi had treated them to last time, the Huarongdao Hotel. Sima Yi focused his energy on talking to the fat man in order to distract him and get him to eat less. But Sima Yi never expected that Sun Wukong could eat even more than the fat man!

Han Cheng, Xu Xiaomeng, and Ye Bing smiled without saying a word. This place was recommended by Fatty, who said the service was good and they'd come back here. Sima Yi readily agreed. Although it was a hotel, the prices weren't high, but it was enough for Little Ma to have a good time...

"That'll be three thousand eight in total!" the waiter said to Sima Yi with a smile.

"Only three thousand eight? I say, little fatty, why didn't you eat more? You've only eaten so little! You can't even eat as much as a monkey. You're just a fatso with no use for it..." Sima Yi scolded the fat man to show his magnanimity, while secretly feeling a pang of heartache. Three thousand eight! Luckily, this place wasn't one of those shady restaurants. If it were, one dish would probably be enough, and a really bad one at that. Otherwise, three thousand eight would be a real struggle. But three thousand eight is still a lot...

"Wait, why three thousand eight?" Sima Yi was a little confused; it seemed that "three eight" wasn't a very auspicious number...

"Brother Ma, are you going home?" the fat man asked.

"Hmm, where should we go?" Sima Yi asked, while inwardly cursing the fat man a thousand times.

"Why don't we come to my house? Little Ma, your AD Ying Zheng was amazing today. Come to my house and teach me how to play AD Ying Zheng properly..." the fat man said shamelessly.

"Sigh, never mind, I have things to do at home. I can teach you how to play AD Ying Zheng now..." Sima Yi said, thinking to himself, "Does this little fat guy think I'm handsome and want to be gay with me?"

"Is something wrong at home? Little Ma is already married?" Xu Xiaomeng asked.

"Hey!" Sima Yi sighed, "I don't even have a girlfriend yet."

"I guess Brother Ma has too high standards. Someone as handsome and rich as Brother Ma would never look at those ordinary girls..." Sun Wukong said, even bringing up the idiom "ordinary girls".

Hearing that he was praised for being handsome and rich, Sima Yi was quite pleased and immediately offered to teach everyone how to play AD Ying Zheng.

"Actually, AD Ying Zheng isn't anything too special. It's just that some equipment has been changed, and basic attacks have become the main source of damage, replacing skills as the primary means of output... The core of AD Ying Zheng's gameplay relies on Ying Zheng's passive, which grants penetration to basic attacks, along with magic power scaling, and the damage dealt is also magic damage." Sima Yi paused after speaking, "The first item is usually Shadow Blade, followed by Infinity Edge. AD Bian Que is the same. Shadow Blade paired with Infinity Edge is a very aggressive build. With these two items, attack speed can be greatly increased. Then, the next item..." Then you can consider magic-based equipment, such as the Bloodthirster. With this item, you can heal yourself not only when using skills but also when using basic attacks. With this build, using critical strike runes, and building Shadow Blade and Infinity Edge, Ying Zheng's critical strike chance can reach over 60%. Once a critical strike occurs, the Shadow Blade passive is triggered, allowing you to continuously use basic attacks on the opponent. Prioritize leveling up the second skill. The first skill is useless; it's hard to hit anyone, and the damage isn't very high. It's okay for clearing minions, but useless for fighting enemies. Prioritizing the second skill increases magic power, making basic attacks more powerful. The shield and speed boost ensure Ying Zheng's survivability, and kiting becomes much better.

"Phew... I'm exhausted. That's basically it..." Sima Yi said.

“But you only talked about the equipment and runes, and you haven’t even finished talking about the equipment. What about the gameplay…” Xu Xiaomeng interjected.

"How to play? Just use basic attacks, land critical hits and then go all out, frequently use your second skill to reposition and absorb damage, then use your ultimate to initiate or finish off enemies. AD Ying Zheng's ultimate damage is quite considerable. After that, you can build Ice Staff to make the ultimate even more effective. Boots, Shadow Blade, Infinity Edge, Bloodthirster, Ice Staff, and the last item can be Resurrection Armor, or Pure Sky, or even another Infinity Edge, depending on the situation..." Sima Yi continued (This chapter is almost over, AD Ying Zheng is a build the author has tested and it's indeed effective, usually the author builds...) The build is semi-AD, just like Xiao Ma Ge's build, and the gameplay is as Xiao Ma Ge described. The author once soloed against a King-ranked player using Diao Chan against my Ying Zheng. Diao Chan has a lot of mobility, especially with her ultimate active, making her an AP assassin. She shouldn't have much trouble against Ying Zheng, but my AD Ying Zheng completely dominated her. That time, my Ying Zheng had a lot of AD items, immediately using his ultimate and then spamming basic attacks. Also, it should be noted that that King-ranked player was genuinely skilled, not one who got there through boosting or smurfing...

"I understand what you're saying, but I don't fully grasp it yet. It would be best if you, Brother Ma, taught me personally..." the fat man said.

"Get out of here, I'm not gay..." Sima Yi said, "I need to go home and work out, my abs have gotten a bit rusty these past few days..."

"What's gay dating?" The fat man looked at Sima Yi with feigned confusion. "And Little Ma, you even have abs?"

"Alright, alright, I'm speechless... I'm leaving now..." Sima Yi said, "This little fat guy is still pretending to be innocent with me..." He got into the car, then realized something was wrong and quickly stuck his head out of the window, saying, "Anyone want a ride? I can give you a lift..."

"Yes, me!" the fat man said.

“And me!” Sun Wukong said.

“We…” Han Cheng, Xu Xiaomeng, and Ye Bing exchanged glances. “Let’s just walk back ourselves…”
