Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 852: Monster Harvester

FRY’s team sounded confused.

“There’s no mid-laner on the other side at all. This Specter Blacksmith is a support, and the Storm Swordsman eats everything in the middle lane and the jungle!”

“What should we do? The Storm Swordsman dominates two lanes, and the Specter Blacksmith can passively give him more money and experience. He can fight five by himself in a while!”

“Can the mid-laner push the tower?”

“We can’t. The Storm Swordsman can rush back based on the situation. The next wave of troops under the tower will be cleared very quickly. If the mid-laner is pressed down too deeply, we might be caught!”

“My top laner has suppressed the Ancient Lava Tree well. Don’t let anything happen to it!”

“Can our jungler help to push their junglers into the jungle together?”

“That won’t do. Let’s not talk about whether you can beat him after entering the jungle. You won’t be able to catch Storm Swordsman even if he wants to run. What’s more, he’s farming the jungle with two people. How are you going to catch him so quickly?”

“What if the support wanders around?”

“No, the pressure at the bottom lane is too great. I can’t leave.”

FRY’s team members discussed a few plans, but after some research, they realized that they did not have a good solution for the current situation!

Initially, he thought that the Specter Blacksmith was going to take the bottom lane, so FRY chose a wanderer as support. FV team moved the Specter Blacksmith to the middle lane unexpectedly and changed the bottom lane to a strong support.

This way, the pressure on the bottom lane would suddenly increase. If FRY forcefully allowed the support to wander, the pressure on the bottom lane would not be able to withstand it. It might even fall directly.

The top laner did not want to leave either. The Fierce Gale Martial God chased after the Ancient Lava Tree and developed very comfortably online. If the Fierce Gale Martial God went to support his teammates, it would be equivalent to letting the Ancient Lava Tree, the team battle hero, develop without any pressure. If the support failed, wouldn’t he be playing himself useless?

The Fierce Gale Martial God was a rather unique hero to begin with. He had to eat his own resources to carry them. It was impossible for him to leave.

FRY’s jungler was more powerful but he did not dare to rashly invade FV’s jungle in the early stages. After all, it was easy for something big to happen if their level was low. If their level was high, they could consider invading, but they realized that the level and economy of the Storm Swordsman had already risen. They might not necessarily win even if it was two against two.

Storm Swordsman might be weak in the early stages, but as long as he was in the lead in terms of economic and experience, he was a godly weapon to torture noobs. What’s more, he was a very mobile hero. Multiple segments of displacement allowed him to fight very agilely. It was very difficult for FRY to deal with him with the Specter Blacksmith as a nanny.

What’s more, Storm Swordsman was a hero FV used well. It was impossible to count on mistakes in the operations.

Thus, FRY fell into a situation where they could not do their best.

The mid-laner and jungler were still playing the game, eating wild monsters, their development was completely unaffected.

However, the problem was that the development of Storm Swordsman in FV was better!

It had eaten the middle lane and the jungle by itself. It also had additional economic and experience. How could it not develop well?

FRY’s members also felt that the current situation was not good. They had not seen it in competitions but it was still very common for the Storm Swordsman to fight one against five in more novice competitions.

FRY’s other heroes might not be enough for them to kill if they were really defeated by the Storm Swordsman, especially with Spirit Blacksmith’s ultimate move. They could forget about playing the game as long as they were defeated by the Storm Swordsman.

FRY team’s voices became anxious.

“No, we have to speed up. We can’t continue developing so steadily. Otherwise, when the Storm Swordsman comes out, it will be difficult for us to fight. Let’s go to the bottom lane!”

“Alright, I’ll go after pushing the line.”

FRY took a look and could only take the bottom lane.

The top laner Ancient Lava Tree was meaty and had control. It was easy to fail in a 3v3 under the tower. There was no one in the middle lane at all. The Storm Swordsman would run after clearing the minions. It would definitely not fight with them and was basically impossible to catch anyone in the jungle.

Thus, they could only make a killing in the bottom lane after some serious thoughts.

FV’s bottom lane might be considered a strong combination, but they can still make a killing if they were to carry out a four protect two formation.

What’s more, FRY team had played a petty trick. They moved downwards immediately after deliberately storing some troops in the middle lane and advancing into FV’s middle lane.

Storm Swordsman from FV might be able to move faster, but he would definitely arrive late if he took the mid-laner. If he did not, he would be at a loss.

The Specter Blacksmith and the Storm Swordsman were conjoined twins. It was impossible for them to go to the bottom lane on their own to provide support. Thus, both of them were tied to the middle lane at once. They would not be able to cross in a short time.

They should be able to kill two people at the bottom lane and retreat safely as long as the four from FRY team could handle it well.

Indeed, everything was going according to FRY’s plan.

The Storm Swordsman could not bear to part with the experience and money of this large group of soldiers as expected. He returned to the middle lane to eat. Meanwhile, FRY’s mid-laner took the opportunity while the Storm Swordsman was eating the soldiers to reach the bottom lane and directly decided to cross the tower at FV’s bottom lane.

The two people at the bottom lane of FV Team were obviously mentally prepared as well. They had been working hard to take on the troops before they were bagged. The fully-controlled support had been delayed for a period of time under the tower. Even though both of them had died in the end, most of the soldiers had been taken in by the tower. The opponent’s bottom lane was also average. The damage suffered by the defense tower was limited, and they did not lose too many soldiers.

The FRY team heaved a sigh of relief. No one died on their side. The tower crossing was still completed without any mishaps.

However, someone shouted, “Hurry back to the middle lane!”

Previously, the fight at the bottom lane had been so intense that the four of them had not had time to pay attention to the situation in the middle lane. The Storm Swordsman did not intend to support the bottom lane at all now that they looked at it from the perspective. Instead, he was attacking the defense tower crazily!

The Storm Swordsman waved his hands wildly, and his huge sword slashed at the defense tower. Every slash cut off a large portion of its health bar.

The reason why the Storm Swordsman was so popular in the low-end game was not only because it had multiple displacements, could reap, and could show off, but also because it could steal towers.

What’s more, this hero cleared his troops very quickly. If no one took care of it, there would be a continuous stream of soldiers. The central tower would probably be cut down very soon.

FRY’s mid-laner quickly returned to the city and prepared to defend the mid lane.

The strategic location of the defense tower in the middle lane was too important. Their vision would be restricted and the jungle would fall if it fell so early. The situation would be very passive later on.

Storm Swordsman saw FRY’s mid-laner return to the city and calculated the time he would arrive at the base of the tower. Then, he and the Specter Blacksmith entered the upper half of FRY’s wilderness and began to trample on the newly spawned monsters on FRY’s side.

FRY battleteam’s jungler went from the top to the bottom, the top lane monsters were just refreshed when they went to the bottom lane to gank.

After eating so many resources, the Storm Swordsman was almost one big item ahead of the opposing jungler. The jungler monsters were simply like a lawn mower, not a single blade of grass grew wherever they went.

FV’s strategic intentions were very obvious. If you want to capture people from the other lanes, just do it. The Ancient Lava Tree on the top lane and the archers on the bottom lane were functional heroes anyway. They would still be of use even if they died a few times.

The Storm Swordsman would tear down the tower and eat the wild monsters if you went to catch them. Let’s see who would lose more.

FRY Team might have successfully killed the bottom lane of FV, but the finances of both teams were still on par. There was no gap at all. Instead, the economic difference between the jungler positions was getting more and more ridiculous!

FRY did not have any good ideas to deal with Storm Swordsman even as they saw it enter their own jungle and eat until it was full.

“Forget it, let him eat in the upper half of the jungle. It’s too late to rush over now. I’ll eat the lower half of his jungle in exchange.” FRY’s jungler might as well continue to farm in the lower half of the jungle on FV’s side.

“Alright, I’ll go to the bottom lane after pushing this wave. We’ll catch them again.” FRY’s mid-laner agreed.

They would probably be showcased if they went to catch this Storm Swordsman now. Thus, the best choice was to continue the battle at the bottom lane and push down the defense tower at the bottom lane as soon as possible. Then, they would switch the two-person team to the middle lane and catch the Storm Swordsman together.

FRY’s top-laner was stunned. “What about me?”

The jungler was silent for a moment. “Take care of yourself.”

FRY’s top-laner was speechless. What happened to me carrying this game?

He chose the Fierce Gale Martial God to fight the Ancient Lava Tree. It was originally quite comfortable but he did not know why the team went to fight the second half of the area as he played on. He was abandoned again!

A fattening Storm Swordsman and Specter Blacksmith were wreaking havoc in his upper half of the jungle. Coupled with a controlled Ancient Lava Tree, FRY’s top-laner knew very well that if he was not careful, he would be controlled and killed directly.
