Chapter Seventeen Wu Sheng 2009

  "No way? Can you actually transform into a hero from DOTA directly? That's so cool! I'm getting more and more interested in this game!" The bespectacled university student looked at Su Hong, who had just walked out of the Fountain of Life, and couldn't help but whistle and shout excitedly.

  "Wow! This is Magina, indeed handsome and majestic, not disappointing as the perfect man!" The sexy woman was like a flower idiot, if it weren't for the pair of crescent moon blades in Su Hong's hand flashing with a chilling cold light, she would have probably rushed to Su Hong's side...

  The other two people saw that they could directly choose a hero to transform into, and their eyes lit up at the same time. They quickly rushed to the Hero Tavern next to the Fountain of Life.

  "I advise you one sentence, try to choose the heroes that you are good at and have control skills, also don't choose heroes with low health, okay, forget I said that..."

  Before Su Hong finished speaking, the two of them hastily chose their heroes. The World Tree swayed, and a radiant light enveloped everything. A small, delicate dragon emerged first, followed by a man wearing light armor riding a winged bird, who also charged out with a flourish, flying elegantly in mid-air.

  Alright, a Naga Siren Puck and a Lifestealer Anti-Mage, two heroes with some control abilities but extremely low health, can be called absolute glass cannons, unless you have very good operation skills, it's hard to bring out the power of these two heroes.

  At this time, the sexy woman couldn't help herself either, and ran to the Hero Tavern, choosing a hero who was surprisingly the sexy and fiery Fire Girl Lina. Her image matched her own quite well, but what left Su Hong speechless was that this was also a glass cannon hero, not much better than the previous two...

  "Although I also want to come up with a hero who can show off, but we already have three fragile ones here, and the other side is an extremely oppressive attacking lineup. Considering the overall situation, I'd better come up with a powerful control hero." The bespectacled university student stroked his chin thoughtfully.

  "Half-human mammoth? Not bad!"

  Seeing the hero chosen by that bespectacled university student, Su Hong's eyes lit up and he let out a slight sigh of relief. The three guys in front had already been categorized as useless teammates, not worth expecting much from. Fortunately, there was still one relatively reliable teammate left. This half-human, half-mammoth's ultimate skill, "Two Extremes Reversal", might just be able to turn the tide of battle if used properly.

  Ignoring the three guys who were having a blast, Su Hong seriously took a look at the slightly greenhorned bespectacled university student beside him and mentioned: "It seems you have a pretty good understanding of DOTA, knowing how to choose heroes based on the lineup, and even choosing the best hero that counters the opponent's lineup. However, I want to remind you that it's not enough just doing this, you need to do more and better."

  "Hehe, thanks for the reminder, Enemy Law brother. Although I've been retired for a while, I believe that with my own strength, I won't be a drag on the team. I'll work hard to perform at my best." The university student with black-framed glasses smiled lightly, his face showing gratitude, and his eyes flashing with strong confidence.

  "Have you ever been a professional player? What's your ID?" Su Hong asked.

  "Wu Sheng 2009." The university student with black-framed glasses replied.

  "Wu Sheng 2009? The legendary captain of the FTD team?" Su Hong's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, having studied a lot of DOTA data recently. Although professional players were not on his mind, the ID Wu Sheng 2009 often appeared before him, and in the e-sports circle, he was considered a top-notch player, even after retiring, his popularity remained high. It was no wonder that he could find a hero to counter the opponent's lineup so quickly, because this guy had originally relied on his excellent overall view to win the world championship title.

  Su Hong was slightly surprised, not expecting to actually meet a top professional player from the DOTA esports circle in this Xuan Yue space. However, after his initial surprise, his expression quickly returned to its usual calm state, and he didn't seem too astonished. This was because he still vividly remembered the awkward performance of that blond-haired, non-mainstream fashionable young man back then. Without sufficient courage and the ability to overcome inner fears, titles like DOTA god, top professional player, and world champion would all be useless.

  However, there were already three teammates who were not pulling their weight, and Su Hong didn't want to dampen Wu Sheng 2009's enthusiasm. After offering a few words of encouragement, he controlled the enemy mage to buy a set of equipment from the store, including a Tree Eater, three Iron Branches, a Big Medicine, and a Dagger Axe, before heading out.

  As this time didn't delay for too long, Su Hong arrived at the lower road highland when the first wave of soldiers from their own ancient tree barracks just started to advance, and didn't miss the opportunity to fight.

  "Enemy Faguo, if no one is in the middle road, I'll go solo to the mid lane!" Wu Sheng 2009 transformed into a half-human mammoth, waving his battle-axe and greeting.

  "Hehe, Wu Song 2009, the former world's number one mid laner, I hope your performance won't be too disappointing." Su Hong smiled slightly and didn't say anything else, instead striding with strong and powerful steps towards the battlefield.

  At this time, the other three people on Su Hong's side also rushed out of the base in a swarm. The sexy woman transformed into Huo Nv Li Na and the young man transformed into Xian Nv Long walked shoulder to shoulder up the road, chatting happily and quickly becoming inseparable. Meanwhile, the middle-aged successful man who was left behind looked rather depressed, pouting as he controlled Tian Nu Fa Shi to rush down the lower road towards Su Hong.

  "Kid, are you going to do it or not? If you don't put in the effort later on, I'd rather have developed myself. Don't look down on me just because I'm not as young as you guys, but my DOT A skills are definitely not weak and I won't lose to you guys." The middle-aged successful man didn't get to run off with that sexy beauty, so he suddenly vented his frustrations at Su Hong's head.

  Su Hong just gave a cold smile, too lazy to say anything more. For these newcomers, he had already given them enough advice. Since they all took it as a breeze in their ears, then they could only use bloody lessons to make them understand.

  But Su Hong didn't expect that Tian Hui would send out the first blood at a speed much faster than he had anticipated, and before the two armies' lines of battle could fully clash, the first blood had already been exchanged.

  “Firstblood！”

  Suddenly, a cold and merciless voice echoed through the entire ancient relic battlefield, like a thunderclap, making everyone's ears buzz, and then the host's cold voice sounded again: "Double kill! Double kill!"

  "Double kill? You actually gave the opponent two heads at once? It's really a pit! " Su Hong was stunned, and his mouth twitched slightly. Now he finally understood how Li Dairen and others felt back then. This wasn't even the official start of the battle, yet their side had already generously given away two heads to the Nightmares team. If he hadn't misseen it, those were also the heads taken by the opposing team's late-game hero, Ghost Reaper. The situation was at a disadvantage from the very beginning, how could they play like this?

  "Haha, that pair of self-righteous dog man and woman thought they were so good, even volunteering to go to the disadvantaged road to resist pressure, looking all arrogant and domineering. But in the end, they got knocked back into shape so quickly, after all, they're just a couple of novices." The middle-aged successful man sneered, wanting to mock them some more, but the words that had already reached his lips were thoroughly stunned by the bloody scene that followed.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  As they spoke, the Treefolk battalion of Tianhui and the Ghoul troops of Ye Wei had already clashed, quickly drawing blood with their bayonets and engaging in a fierce battle. A Treefolk soldier was torn to shreds by a ghoul, but before dying, the soldier also heavily struck the ghoul's skull with his thick, tree-like arm.

  Fierce bird DeRui wielded the natural law staff in his hand, launching one magic ball after another for a long-range attack. The death spirit mage opposite him was not to be outdone, and a cruel smile appeared on his cold face as he sent out one after another of the evil death spirit magic, whistling through the air above the battlefield.

  Blood, a thick bloody smell fills the air, soldiers keep falling, green natural blood and black polluted blood of the dead are mixed together, splashing everywhere on the battlefield.

  Bang! Bang!

  That middle-aged successful man transformed into a Heavenly Fury Mage, his face turned deathly pale, eyes wide with terror, body trembling non-stop. A stream of yellow liquid dripped down from the winged bird under him... he was actually scared to the point of urinating in his pants...

  "You don't seem to be much better than them." Su Hong turned his head and gave a cold glance, then didn't say anything more. Instead, he took advantage of the time before the opposing hero could aim their spear at him, and quickly started fighting back.

  The situation is very severe, the late-game hero Yōgui on the opposite side has already opened up a big gap in economy after taking first blood and second blood consecutively, with a difference of about 1,000 game gold coins. Su Hong knows he must make a comeback, otherwise this battle will not only be lost, but will be lost very badly, and at that time, although he won't be mercilessly killed by the Master, he will definitely lose a large amount of Ladder Points and Blood Coins, which is absolutely not what he wants to see.

  "I hope the former world champion can give some support...” Su Hong said while making a last-ditch effort to catch up, using the Bloodthorn Tattoo's battlefield 3D projection function to glance at the mid lane, but what made him extremely shocked was that the black-framed glasses-wearing university student named Wu Sheng2009 did not appear on the battlefield, instead hiding behind the ancient tree in the outer tower, no longer having his former sharpness and confidence.
