With sufficient health, successful laning, and a level advantage, Chen Mu gained leverage for his squad in this entire match. He could farm CS and harass others whenever he wanted to. A white layer of armor surrounded his Rockman’s body that destroyed all of Bladesman’s hopes to poke Rockman.

Disgusting! It’s simply too disgusting! Zhao Yin suddenly realized how disgusting it was to come face-to-face with a mid lane Rockman.

After three minion waves, Chen Mu managed to farm eighteen minions with an additional siege minion without missing out. Meanwhile, Bladesman only managed to farm a pathetic six minions. On top of that, his health had been reduced by more than a hundred points.

Was Chen Mu supposed to let Bladesman off just like that? Impossible! Whenever a champion got suppressed, their player would begin getting anxious and panic, leading to reduced thinking speed in their brains. With that thought in mind, Chen Mu began calling out to his teammates.

“Blind Monk, gank the mid lane. Come from the top lane, he doesn’t have a ward,” Chen Mu said.

“Ok.” Blind Monk tried camping throughout a wave on the top lane but failed to see any kind of opening. Meanwhile, the jungle creeps had also been completely cleared. He was more than happy to try when he heard Chen Mu’s words.

Moreover, it was not a tryout when Chen Mu asked Blind Monk to gank the mid lane—it was a surefire gank!

The AP Bladesman build was trending extremely well recently. Using his Q to sweep up minions while waiting to reap kills whenever their targets’ health went low. However, this function was all built on the condition that the champion was equipped with items.

Without any items equipped, this Bladesman could not even cut through Rockman’s skin. How was he supposed to reap anything?

Therefore, whenever Zhao Yin saw the opportunity to farm CS, he would not let it slip.

League of Legends was a game that was crueler than reality. It was the actual embodiment of the truth that “money can buy anything”.

If you managed to get one maxed out item, you could go up alone against two or three champions at a time and even dive their towers to secure your kills. Then, you could recall to the Fountain to rejuvenate.

However, you could only submit to Fate without gold. You would only be able to watch as others take your lane away from you, bully your friends, and flirt with your girl!

Every invested League of Legends player placed greater importance on the economy and experience than their own lives—as what many game commentators would have mentioned when explaining the matches to the audience.

“Even if I die, I’ll have to bring this wave of minions with me to the grave!”

Therefore, when Bladesman noticed more than two minions’ health dropping super low, it was as though Bladesman was a hungry weasel looking at chickens; its drool pooling on the ground.

Even if it was at the cost of getting harassed by Rockman, there was no way Bladesman was missing out on last hitting these few minions.

Zhao Yin’s eyes were fixated on the low health ranged minions like a man who had lost his mind. ‘Twelve creeps. I’ve been suppressed by twelve creeps. Imagine how much gold this will give me.’

That in mind made him completely unaware of his surroundings. When he attempted to Q the minions, Chen Mu’s Rockman began shifting into a forward position.

Chen Mu moved into the position that he carefully chose. It was a position next to one of the minions furthest but still within the range of Bladesman’s Q. Chen Mu chose this position because he knew Bladesman would definitely end up in this position.

Moreover, Chen Mu took another two more steps forward and walked on the Bladesman’s path home. This way, when Bladesman started to run away, Chen Mu could throw in two more normal attacks.

The moment Bladesman landed on the ground, he was instantly bombarded by Chen Mu’s cruel beatings.

However, Zhao Yin consoled himself that it was fine. He could always just return, cast W, and consume some potions.

Yet, a flurry of Tempest that came crashing down destroyed all of Zhao Yin’s dreams.

“Eff me, why is the Blind Monk here?!’ Zhao Yin panicked.

Shi Geng had proven himself to have a strong mastery with Blind Monk. He first approached his target by casting W and due to his apt choice of position, he began with his basic attacks strengthened by the red buff. Then, he slammed the ground to increase his damage further, followed closely by more basic attacks as he awaited Bladesman to use his Flash to prevent him from using it to dodge Blind Monk’s attack when his attack animation started.

As long as Shi Geng had no slip of the hand, Shi Geng was sure to hit his target with Q regardless of what happened afterward. This was because Bladesman was hit by the red buff and Blind Monk’s Cripple simultaneously. His reduced movement speed would not even be enough for him to dodge the spell by moving out of range.

It was clear that Bladesman did not put as much thought into this as Chen Mu and Shi Geng did. As expected, Bladesman surrendered his Flash naively in his attempt to dodge by leaving the spell’s cast range.

However, Blind Monk who followed behind Chen Mu cast Q accurately at Bladesman and continued the fight from there onward. Meanwhile, Bladesman coincidentally stepped into his tower range while channeling.

Yet, Chen Mu walked forward and cast Ignite without hesitation before turning back confidently. He left the near-dead Bladesman who could not recover from the triple stack of damage from Ignite, the red buff, and Blind Monk’s damage. Chen Mu boiled Zhao Yin’s Bladesman with Ignite and earned first blood.

“We’re quite the match,” praised Shi Geng.

“You can farm their jungle now. Our opponents would not be able to send reinforcements for now,” said Chen Mu.

“Naturally!” As a player with a thousand nine hundred ELO points, Shi Geng would not be dumb enough to return to his own jungle like an idiot after seizing the mid lane. At this point, their enemies would not be able to catch up to his level and could only resort to farming CS in their own lanes. Intruding into the enemy jungle would be much safer right now. At the same time, Rockman could easily assist him after pushing his lane at any time. If he chose not to intrude on the enemy jungle, it would be such a great waste of resources.

Once Chen Mu recalled back to base, he instantly purchased the Fiendish Codex that provided an increase in ability power while reducing CD effects. Regardless if you were at home or traveling, murdering or robbing, it was a household item everyone should have!

At the same time, Chen Mu brought along a Vision Ward and a Stealth Ward. According to the System, the Vision Ward would no longer be invisible in the future while a Stealth Ward would no longer be available for purchase. It would be a decorative light instead. These changes were taken to reduce the gap between professional and newbie players; to prevent players who knew how to use wards from crushing players who chose not to buy wards.

This made Chen Mu feel like things would not be as impressive in the future. The strong would have to depend on grasping at the details and in-depth understanding of game mechanics to widen the gap between normal players. This was a mandatory principle in every field of business. It did not matter if they could purchase wards or otherwise because the strong would remain strong. When they removed wards from the equation, the noobies could finally be at par with pro players.

In his lane, Chen Mu continued farming his CS to suppress Zhao Yin. With more suppression from equipped items and a level-advantage, Chen Mu could reduce Zhao Yin’s Bladesman’s health by more than a hundred with a single cast of Q. It meant that there was no way Bladesman could farm CS other than using his Q.

As for Chen Mu, attacking once he reached Level 6 was already an inborn skill. Every experience value granted by each minion had been embedded into Chen Mu’s brain. The instant the melee minion died, Chen Mu’s Rockman crashed into a newly Level 5 Bladesman before the gleam indicating a level-increase even disappeared.

“Hit him!”

The ground shook. In fact, before Bladesman saw clearly that he had been lifted into the air, Chen Mu’s spell swept over Bladesman who only had four hundred health points left. Before the animation of Chen Mu’s spells ended, Bladesman had already been sent to the Fountain.

“Heck! Didn’t he need to use more spells? Why did he come flying once he reached Level 6?!” Zhao Yin screamed. He knew that he would be instantly dead at his current health. However, if he could not get the last hit on the minion, he should at least get the experience! If he could not gain any experience, he would have been a total failure. Since Bladesman died once, how would he know how long it would take Rockman to reach Level 6? Chen Mu crashed into him in a flash of golden light as he was about to retreat. This was something that he never expected to happen.

At that point, Zhao Yin’s teammates started thinking about how much of a noob Zhao Yin was. Forget not being able to kill Rockman with the game’s current version’s most OP champion — AP Bladesman. Zhao Yin actually got solo killed! Did he not realize that getting solo killed was something worth getting insulted for even in the world championships?

“Big Bug1, how can you still be farming? If you’ve come to help me sooner, nothing like this would have happened. Now that he’s leveled up so much, I’m useless now.” Zhao Yin started throwing the blame around.

“It’s my fault. It’s my fault.” His teammate was already used to Zhao Yin throwing the blame around. He understood that once they started arguing, it would be endless. It would be easier to submit to Zhao Yin’s woes. In all honesty, Zhao Yin’s teammate had gotten harassed by Blind Monk in the jungle for a while now and was extremely tilted about it. He wanted to blame Zhao Yin for losing the mid lane but he did not dare to.

In nine minutes, Rockman scored eighty-three CS and two kills. He was so fed he was like a silver mine—not some mountain of rock—he was covered entirely in silver!

Once he returned to the Fountain, Chen Mu purchased a legendary item that would soon be removed in future versions of the game.
