The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

"Haha, little sister, you're quite the altruist! Well then, I won't stand on ceremony." Liu Ruchi said as she began setting up the room and pulling everyone over.

"Jinglan: Liu Ruchi..." Han Cheng muttered to himself upon seeing Liu Ruchi's game ID.

"Could this person be from that team?" Qin Li muttered to himself.

"It's very likely, otherwise she wouldn't be so arrogant," Leng Rancheng muttered.

Han Cheng reluctantly sat down next to Liu Ruchi. After all, he was a jungler, so it seemed reasonable for him to sit next to the mid laner.

"Young man, be sure to do your best later!" Liu Ruchi said with a smile.

"Okay..." Han Cheng replied with a wry smile.

Finally, the game began.

Enter the ban/pick interface, where Leng Rancheng will conduct the ban/pick process.

Leng Rancheng glanced at everyone, and after discussing it, decided to ban Luna, while the opposing team banned Diao Chan.

Han Cheng didn't pay much attention to these ban/pick issues. After all, he didn't know the opponent and could only ban/pick based on the situation. It would be awkward if the banned hero wasn't one that the opponent was good at.

Han Cheng was puzzled when the opposing team banned Diao Chan. After all, it seemed that no one on his team liked to use Diao Chan. Although Diao Chan was often banned, Han Cheng would also pick her when she was available. Despite being a popular hero, she was not without weaknesses. If Diao Chan's equipment was not fully developed, she would be basically useless. Moreover, she was quite dependent on runes. If runes such as spell vamp and cooldown reduction were installed, Diao Chan's combat power would be greatly improved.

So, everyone began to choose their heroes. Leng Rancheng didn't choose Miyamoto Musashi, and Han Cheng guessed that he was going to use Miyamoto Musashi as his ultimate move. Instead, he chose Xiahou Dun. Liu Ruchi chose Zhen Ji with Flash. Han Cheng pursed his lips. Zhen Ji was indeed a very strong hero, but her pick rate was not high. She was considered an unpopular hero, but she was indeed powerful. However, her control skills required prediction. Her ultimate and first skill both required good prediction to achieve better results. When it was Han Cheng's turn, he thought for a moment and chose Li Bai.

"You can drive them to the brink, but you can't wipe them out completely!" Han Cheng is now considered a tycoon, having already soared to Noble 7. He couldn't resist taking a small portion of his prize money to deposit into it...

"Hey bro, you play Li Bai?" Liu Ruchi asked in a gentle tone. Han Cheng felt a little uncomfortable. Damn, luckily he had good self-control and managed to stay composed.

"Yes," Han Cheng replied in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.

"Haha, that's amazing! Keep it up!" Liu Ruchi laughed.

Although Liu Ruchi seemed quite approachable, Han Cheng had a strange feeling that she wasn't a good person. After all, this rabbit wasn't a good person either. Since she was her subordinate, he believed that if the lower ranks were corrupt, the upper ranks would be crooked as well. Moreover, she exuded a hint of evil, which Han Cheng couldn't describe, but it was definitely there...

"A femme fatale..." Han Cheng couldn't help but think of this idiom, then secretly glanced at Liu Ruchi and suddenly felt it was quite fitting...

Subsequently, Qin Li chose Marco Polo, a hidden hero. Marco Polo is the hero with the highest burst damage, bar none. His first skill damage is among the highest in King of Glory, and he also has mobility, so he can be very flashy.

Finally, it was Sima Yu's turn. She chose Da Qiao again. There was no other way; this hero was just too strong and had to be taken, at least to prevent the opponent from using her. After all, she had four skills, and there wasn't a single hero with four skills yet. Although Hua Mulan would have two sets of skills after her rework, she only had one set before level four. It was also said that the new hero Pang Tong also had four skills, but he was recently withdrawn and reworked, probably due to design flaws. But who cares? The designers have the final say!

As for the opposing team's lineup, Lu Bu in the top lane has Execute. Speaking of which, the summoner spell changed from Execute to Annihilate, and finally to Execute. That's pretty unbelievable. But it seems like Execute looks even cooler...

As for the mid-lane, it's Zhuge Liang, who borrows the east wind and fights Zhen Ji; they all seem to be heroes from the Three Kingdoms period...

Then the opposing jungler is Nakoruru, a hero who has recently become popular due to her high damage, large percentage of health reduction, and great mobility. She is no longer as unpopular as before.

Finally, there's the opposing bottom lane duo: Huang Zhong and Zhong Kui. Both Huang Zhong and Zhong Kui have Flash.

Han Cheng glanced at their IDs; he hadn't seen them before, so they probably weren't a team from KP1. But then Han Cheng thought that they might have created smurf accounts to hide their identities.

Finally, the game began. Han Cheng was very curious about just how strong his opponent was, that Liu Ruchi was so confident.

However, Han Cheng soon realized that even if the team, as Liu Ruchi had said, did not have a captain or her, but instead fielded two substitutes, its strength was still formidable.

The opposing Zhong Kui and Huang Zhong invaded Han Cheng's blue buff together at level one. Han Cheng naturally noticed their movements, pretending to attack the buff while actually attacking the small jungle monsters on the side. He chose to start with the blue buff last. If the opponents tried to invade, he would let them do so. In any case, they wouldn't be able to easily steal the blue buff from him anytime soon.

"Whoosh!" Zhong Kui threw out his hook. If Han Cheng had started normally and chosen to start with the blue buff, either the low-health blue buff would have been hooked away, or he himself would have been hooked away. In that case, he wouldn't have been able to get the blue buff, and he probably wouldn't have been able to save his life.

While secretly praising Zhong Kui's accurate estimation, Han Cheng also manipulated Li Bai to charge out.

However, Zhong Kui and Huang Zhong were taken aback to find that Zhong Kui had pulled out a full-health Blue Buff instead of the low-health Blue Buff or the half-health Li Bai they had imagined. It seemed they had been tricked by Li Bai, who knew that if the Blue Buff was pulled out and not killed in a short time, it would return. The two left dejectedly, while Li Bai began to farm the Blue Buff without any worries.

After outmaneuvering the opponent, Han Cheng began to realize how formidable they were. He wanted to warn his teammates, but realized it wasn't necessary. He then saw Leng Rancheng using Miyamoto against Lu Bu, leveling up his second skill first. Lu Bu's first skill couldn't hit Miyamoto Musashi at all, yet he still took several hits for nothing. Meanwhile, in the bottom lane, Marco Polo and Da Qiao went to the bottom lane to face off against Huang Zhong and Zhong Kui after taking the red buff. Huang Zhong and Zhong Kui had failed to invade the enemy jungle, and their economy had been surpassed by Marco Polo and Da Qiao, so they dared not play too aggressively. That's how it is with invading the enemy jungle: if successful, you gain a huge economic advantage in the early game; if you fail, the opposite happens.
