Glory [e-sports]-Chapter 246.2: A very light ticking sound could be heard.

Wei Xiao double kill!
The bulk of his damage had landed on AA, but Yue Wenle’s combo had been aimed at VIVI. The weak mage who didn’t yet have his ultimate move was sent home after shooting out three beams.
“Wonderful!” Commentator Brother Mouth spoke quickly: “FTW cooperated perfectly in this wave. Bai Cai started up the fight, accurately bypassing Mo to control AA. Wei Xiao is worthy of being an old teammate of his, and his damage was on point. The two of them reacted so quickly that it was as though they started at the same time. On the other side, Yue Wenle was calm and silent, his flying arrows stabbing at VIVI. Although VIVI was able to deal a huge amount of damage before he died, scraping away Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle’s health, it was FTW who won a double kill first. Only Mo and Gary are left alive from L&P, and two fists can’t beat four hands. They…”
The commentators couldn’t keep up with the speed at which the situation changed. The swarm of people who’d originally been killed by FTW suddenly turned into a counter attack in the next second!
Two of his teammates were dead, but Gary didn’t show the slightest intention of shrinking back. He locked onto Ning Zhehan with a scythe, then used a basic attack to take away the fire mage’s remaining health.
After killing, his passive ability was triggered, and the berserker thief who entered a berserk state was like a bloody phoenix, burning up everything in his path.
Another scythe went out. Yue Wenle shifted positions, and Bai Cai gritted his teeth to step forward, taking the hit for him.
The berserker thief didn’t hesitate and pulled Bai Cai over, beating him to half health.
Bai Cai’s heart pounded like crazy. “F*ck him!”
He didn’t really need to speak. Yue Wenle and Wei Xiao had already focused their fire on Gary.
Mo used his physical body to block the damage for Gary. He was already at half health, but he still found an opportunity to control Yue Wenle. Brother Cai was also no longer the salted fish he’d been in the past. Although he was being passively beaten up, he wouldn’t miss any opportunities. He used his own control skill and landed it on Gary’s head.
Although the skill hadn’t yet gone out, Wei Xiao could already see the results. “Not bad, Old Bai.”
The skill would definitely land. Gary was done for!
And almost at exactly the same time, Wei Xiao tossed out all the damage he could deal in Gary’s face the moment Gary was locked into place. They watched as Gary’s health bar dropped like a roller coaster, but then a very light ticking sound could be heard.
Wei Xiao: “!”
Bai Cai heard it too. “F*ck, the space-time prophecy!”
That ticking sound was the sound of time, the sound of a stopwatch moving from zero to one, and it was a crucial second.
The space-time knight had reached level six!
He’d managed to rush to the dragon pit at the very last second and given his space-time prophecy to Gary!
The space-time knight’s ultimate move––space-time prophecy.
To explain, this skill had two effects. One effect was that it allowed players to turn back time to two seconds ago. It was targeted at skill cooldowns. For skills that had already been used which were on cooldowns for over ten or even dozens of seconds, as long as time was turned back, they could be reused immediately.
The other effect was that it would return a player’s health back to how it had been one second ago. If it was used well, it was like bringing the dead back to life.
These two effects needed different trigger mechanisms. The reason why the space-time knight was always left on the bench was that this mechanism was too difficult to control.
No matter how strong the skill was, professional teams would consider it very weak as long as its stability wasn’t good enough.
The high yield was accompanied by high risk, and gambling for one or two seconds was fatal in a rapidly changing battlefield.
Obviously, Yuan Ze had it under control.
He arrived as fast as he could and triggered the health recovery mechanism, putting it into play just one second before Gary fell to the ground. If he’d been just a little earlier or later, then it wouldn’t have been effective at all.
Gary, whose health had fallen abruptly due to the burst of damage, resurrected on the spot!
He didn’t need his skills to go back in time. The berserker thief in its berserk state already had cooldowns that were almost nothing. The scythe danced, and locked onto the immortal thief’s throat.
Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. “Old Yue, run!”
Anyone who managed to survive was better than none. Each life was worth something.
Brother Cai quickly gave Wei Xiao a shield, attempting to save him.
Wei Xiao felt his body go cold when he saw the shield on his body, but he didn’t say anything. He’d always known where Brother Cai’s problems lay, but this wasn’t something that could be changed. Or, it should be said that there was no need to change it.
In emergency situations, Bai Cai would only believe in him.
At the most dangerous point, his instinct was stronger than his mind, and he would first attempt to protect Wei Xiao.
There were disadvantages to this. For example, it was absolutely impossible for Wei Xiao to live at this time, so Bai Cai had given out his skills for nothing. It was better to give them to Yue Wenle.
There were also advantages. Why did Brother Cai protect Wei Xiao so carefully? Why did they have such tacit understanding in their jungler support linkage? Why was their combined rhythm so strong? It was because of this belief.
There were advantages and disadvantages, but the advantages generally outweighed the disadvantages.
There was no absolute beauty in the world.
Gary killed Wei Xiao and locked his next scythe onto Bai Cai.
Brother Cai let out a breath of relief. At least they’d saved Yue Wenle. But then…
Yue Wenle: “F*ck!” He’d managed to pull away from Gary while seriously injured and close to death. Originally, he’d thought that he could survive. Unexpectedly, a countdown appeared above his head––the countdown mine.
Yuan Ze had managed to hang a mine on his head at some unknown point in time!
The mine exploded two seconds later. Even if Yue Wenle had left the center of the battle, he still had no way to escape this damage.
Two seconds wasn’t enough time for him to return to the fountain.
Two seconds wasn’t even enough for him to suck some health back from the lane soldiers.
Two seconds wasn’t enough for his recovery skill to come off cooldown.
Two seconds…
L&P.Gary killed FTW.Quiet!
L&P.Gary killed FTW.White!
L&P.Marshal killed FTW.Le!
In a group fight where FTW would definitely win, this ‘one second’ was enough to destroy their entire army!
At this moment, the audience held their breath and stared at the space time knight and berserker thief on the field like they had just seen something absurd.
What kind of bugged skill was this? What kind of out of control group fight was this!
How had he managed to send out his space time reversal?
When had the countdown mine ended up on Lele’s head?
How did Old G get a double kill!
The only good thing was that Lu Feng had managed to take down the top lane’s first defense tower, giving FTW a small advantage.
Gary’s transmission skill was now off cooldown. He directly went to the top lane’s second tower and cleared out the lane. Seeing that their resurrection timers were almost finished, Lu Feng didn’t try to rush forward any further and stopped while he was still ahead.
L&P, who’d been under pressure, was now on the rise.
The space-time knight that had reached level six had become the most difficult existence to deal with in the whole arena.
Bai Cai gnashed his teeth. “One ultimate move every thirty seconds, is that even logical!”
Ning Zhehan: “He…he can also backtrack his own skills QAQ!”
Although the countdown mine cooldown was short, the cooldown time for the second and third skills were very long. Using backtracking on himself was really overboard. They’d only just blasted through his shields when he’d gotten another one, and they’d just seen him on the bottom lane when he showed up again in the mid-lane.
No one had ever thought that a support talent could be used so… so flashily!
Other than this word, everyone couldn’t think of any other adjectives!
With the space-time knight driving the pace, Gary wasn’t the only one who benefitted. President V and President A who’d been beaten up by these younger brothers in the earlier match were also on the rise.
This was especially true for VIVI. This smiling tiger took very good care of granny gray, and the arcs of his beams almost always located the small fire mage. Two beams, three, four…
Little Ning was about to cry. “Does he have to use six beams to kill me! Do I deserve it!”
Obviously, he deserved it. He deserved to be killed with damage to spare.
AA and Yue Wenle had developed relatively peacefully in the previous match, but when it came to marksmen, being suppressed was more rage-inducing than being killed.
Being killed at least meant that someone was targeting you. What did being suppressed amount to?
Being inferior to others?
President A refused to accept that!
In this game, neither of them had taken showy talents, and both of them had talents who would deal massive damage in the later stages.
However, President A had two ‘supports’, so Lele didn’t even have a chance!
Nearly thirty minutes into the game, both the berserker thief and immortal thief had already passed their strongest period. Both of them had been reckless in the early stages, fighting and killing, and it was best if they could end the game in the early or middle stages. Once it dragged into the late stage, their effect in the group battles would plummet.
The berserker thief was better off than the immortal thief. After all, he could refresh his passive through killing and could deal enough damage.
The immortal thief started to feel like it was just scratching elbows with its attacks. When the thousand blades skill hit the ground and he wanted to go again…
What are you thinking? You don’t have the space-time knight to rely on!
Wei Xiao was getting frustrated. Seeing that the situation had already gone astray, he clenched his teeth and said, “I want to practice the space-time knight too!” Just this? Laozi could play it too, and laozi could show off just as well!
The others didn’t react much, but Bai Cai started trembling first. “About that…”
He was a support. He really didn’t want to be forced into a gong role… cough, he didn’t want to be forced into a jungler role!
At this time, Lu Feng said quietly, “No need.”
Wei Xiao sighed, “I was just saying…”
The space knight wasn’t like the soul warlock, and it was too strange using it to fight in the jungle. This could very likely drive Brother Cai to death.
Unexpectedly, Lu Feng’s next sentence was: “I can use the space-time knight.”
The author has something to say:
In fact, Lulu knows everything.
xiin: ahhhh, the blades in their history T_T
