After the Transfer, I became the Team’s Favorite

Chapter 18

The opposing mid-laner attempted to use a dart to stun Jiang Min’s Chaos Angel, but Jiang Min expertly sidestepped, evading the attempt. Immediately after, the Chaos Angel turned around and unleashed a combination of abilities, enveloping the enemy mid-laner in darkness and applying the Dark Curse debuff, causing the opponent’s mid-laner to lose some health.

At this moment, Jade God’s Giant God Priest rushed in and summoned a divine wall in front of Jiang Min’s Chaos Angel, blocking their path.

Seeing their number 4 player arrive, the enemy mid-laner confidently used basic attacks on the Chaos Angel, completely ignoring the Dark Curse debuff on themselves.

The Dark Curse debuff lasted for ten seconds, causing damage over time. Initially, it might not be lethal, but as time passed, the stack count increased. When it reached ten stacks, if triggered by the Chaos Angel, it would explode in damage.

With his escape route blocked, the Chaos Angel remained calm and slipped into the forest.

Within the WOC forest, vision was lost, restricting heroes to a small range of sight after entering. Even if you and your opponent were separated by just a tree, you might not notice their presence.

Jade God’s Giant God Priest instinctively followed the Chaos Angel into the forest, and the two engaged in a forest chase, drawing upon their experience to maneuver.

In a quick maneuver, Jiang Min controlled the Chaos Angel in the forest, perfectly evading Jade God’s sight, suddenly placing the Dark Curse debuff on the enemy mid-laner, ready to trigger it.

Jiang Min calculated the time carefully. As the Dark Curse reached ten stacks and was about to expire, he detonated it.

The unsuspecting enemy mid-laner was directly eliminated by the sudden burst of damage.

“Can I join the game? I’m super reliable and just took down Pikachu Chu.” The system notification scrolled on the left side of the screen.

Jade God was momentarily stunned. The JW mid-laner had precisely timed it. Ten stacks of the debuff, exactly when the buff was about to expire, he turned around and eliminated their mid-laner.

Even while being chased, he remained calm and accurately timed the debuff’s progression. This guy was definitely not ordinary!

However, Jade God wasn’t one to be underestimated either.

Since he had come to the mid-lane, he wouldn’t leave empty-handed.

The Giant God Priest emerged from the forest, ensnaring Jiang Min’s Chaos Angel.

Just when he thought he could take down the fragile and low-health Chaos Angel with a skill combo, the Chaos Angel suddenly shifted attributes, immobilized but still able to use skills.

It switched to the Light attribute, activating Light Shield, an ability that consumed a significant amount of mana but generated a massive shield.

Jade God executed a skill combo on the Chaos Angel, failing to kill it as the shield absorbed a considerable portion of the damage.

The effect of the Giant God Priest’s ensnare disappeared, and the Chaos Angel instantly switched to the Dark attribute, using its ultimate ability to control the Giant God Priest. Taking advantage of the stun, Jiang Min used his remaining mana to unleash a damaging skill, applying the Dark Curse debuff once again.

The Dark Curse couldn’t be dispelled by individual hero abilities and wouldn’t vanish until it dissipated on its own.

Unfortunately for the Giant God Priest, he lacked a dispel ability.

Jiang Min and Jade God engaged in an impressive exchange of positioning, neither falling under the control of the other’s abilities.

As time ran out, the Dark Curse detonated.

“Can I join the game? I’m super reliable and just took down Jade.” The system notification appeared once again.

Cen Yu stared at his black-and-white screen, still processing what had just happened.

The ensnarement lasted just two seconds. The new JW mid-laner acted decisively, immediately shifting attributes to sustain his health, then swiftly transitioning back to the Dark attribute to engage in a combo. His positioning was superb, and his reaction time, hand speed, execution, and strategy were all top-notch. Where did JW find this gem?

OVO’s number 1 player, Ice, glanced at his captain’s black-and-white screen, remaining silent as he focused on last-hitting minions in his lane.

Their number 2 and 4 players on OVO’s side consecutively died. The new JW mid-laner on the opposite side seemed to be growing stronger by the moment. If he couldn’t regain control, their victory was slipping away.

However, he forgot that their number 4 player, who was facing Jade God, was someone even Jade God acknowledged as an excellent JW team captain, Yu Hao.

Supporting Ice wasn’t a professional 5th player, just a regular player. He was at a clear disadvantage against Yu Hao in their lane. Yu Hao’s Ambusher, along with their number 3 player, constantly pressured the 5th position player on the same lane as Ice, putting immense pressure on him.

Farming minions became a challenge for Ice.

As he waited to respawn, OVO’s team manager happened to pass by Cen Yu from behind. Observing Jade God’s black-and-white screen, he couldn’t help but quip, “Is Jade God watching the fountain again today?”

Jade God turned around and saw the manager’s smug expression, which only fueled his frustration. “What do you mean by ‘again’ at the fountain? I’ve only taken a few breaks to watch during the live broadcasts!” Cen Yu stood up abruptly, grabbing the manager’s collar. “Ah, so I’m saying, look at this! The JW duo of Yu Hao and the new number 2 player – they’re incredibly strong! You didn’t manage to find out where Sugar God went, fine, but how can you not recruit such an overpowering new talent? Huh?”

The manager chuckled awkwardly. “Sugar God, well… CC is being secretive about it…”

CC was handling things behind the scenes, and Ji Xiu Yan had spent a high price of 30 million to buy Jiang Min. Ji Xiu Yan promised not to disclose Jiang Min’s transfer to JW, and he strictly forbade any of CC’s players or staff from leaking the information. On this matter, Lin Hongzheng was keeping his word.

So, even after hearing about Jiang Min’s departure, various teams desperately tried to pry information from CC about his whereabouts or contact details, but CC’s people didn’t utter a word.

Among them, the most troubled was Xiang Mian.

In these past few days, his phone had been blowing up with calls and messages.

He was truly stuck in a difficult situation, and other friendly team managers were blaming him for not being loyal enough, even though he was innocent. This was a hot potato he had to carry himself.

All he could do was wait for JW to officially announce it and then go apologize to his friends.

Returning to the OVO team’s side, Jade God still had a grip on the manager’s collar, expressing his discontent. “What’s the use of you…”

The manager managed to free himself from Yu Shen’s grasp, straightening his somewhat disheveled collar. “Jade God, don’t blame me for not warning you, but you’re still live streaming with your webcam on.”
