National Fortune Golden Shovel: I Can See Hidden Bonds!

14: Chapter 014 Ximen Yeyue and Gucheng Jinxiu?Stage 1-1 (No Portal)!

The shop refreshed, and five uniquely posed pieces appeared before Shen Mo.

”Warwick, Twitch, Lillia, Seraphine, Ashe!”

Shen Mo glanced at the shop casually and grabbed Ashe!

Portal Trait!

After defeating the three experience-giving monsters, four blue orbs dropped three items, and Shen Mo’s eyes lit up.

Bloodthirster is ready... B.F. Sword, Negatron Cloak, Recurve Bow, now I just need a Needlessly Large Rod...

What a perfect start!

Shen Mo thought for a moment.

He dragged Ashe directly to the front row, sold the two-star Lillia he’d gotten for free from the three rounds of monsters, and seeing his gold count reach 12, he casually bought two Zoes and threw them onto the board.

Three damage dealers, all placed right at the front!

This set of actions was incredibly suave, smooth as flowing water, without a hint of hesitation!

It’s just selling health to get items.

Basic operation.

But the audience didn’t know that!

They were completely baffled by Shen Mo’s move!

”What is Player Shen Mo doing? He actually put ranged pieces in the first row. This is going to be a disaster!”

”Indeed! Player Shen Mo is still too inexperienced. The ranged pieces clearly can’t withstand the firepower; they are suited for backline damage. But then again, Player Shen Mo didn’t even pick up any pieces that could tank!”

”As expected, he’s lost!”

Stage 2-1, the first round of duels!

Shen Mo’s matched opponent was from the Philippines, Soran! He was the gay guy wearing big shorts, exposing his sexy chest hair!

When the chest-haired gay guy saw Shen Mo’s lineup, he grinned widely and started jabbering away. Shen Mo couldn’t hear anything anyway, just saw the guy’s lips moving...

What?

You’re asking how Shen Mo could see that from so far away?

Damn it... The chest-haired guy was dancing around like a gorilla in heat, frantically trying to attract Shen Mo’s attention.

It’s hard to ignore!

Only a blind person wouldn’t see that, alright!

”Referee! Can I mute this guy? It’s seriously eye-searing. I feel like my mind is under attack,” Shen Mo said with a straight face. ”I suspect this is a strategy targeting me!”

”They want to disrupt my thinking with this eye-searing attack.”

Referee: ”...”

”Request denied. The match continues.”

”You’re not even approving that? You’re an unqualified referee... I’m going to summon the Roaring Venerable...”

Shen Mo shook his head and grumbled internally.

He certainly wouldn’t dare say that directly to the referee, but that didn’t stop him from saying it in his heart!

On the arena.

The chest-haired guy’s lineup was: Warwick + Nunu + Nilah + Ashe!

A lineup like that against Shen Mo’s little Zoes... *Ahem*, the scene was quite bloody and cruel for a moment!

Warwick’s eyes flashed with a blood-red glint as he pounced on Ashe’s petite frame. His bloodthirsty fangs bit hard into her, and he added a few ’Hasaki’ strikes, causing Miss Ashe to perish on the spot.

Not to mention Nilah, swinging her little red whip, beating the two Zoes like she was beating her own sons.

Left hand, right hand, a slow-motion move.

She hit the twin Zoes until they spun in place, turning them into two little whirlwind tops.

In a few seconds, the match was over.

[Rank: 8th, Dragon Country, Shen Mo, Health: 92!]

”Hiss, that hurts...” Shen Mo winced, feeling a bit pained as he dragged one Ashe to the back. Damn it, these people have no martial ethics at all... Hitting so hard?

Although health is the most useless thing in TFT... but this is Gods Arena!

Steady, be steady.

”These guys are terrifyingly straightforward! In my past life, everyone would sell health to get items. Unless the Hextech was good, the early-game quality was usually average. What the hell is this ’getting fully entered’ business!”

Shen Mo was speechless.

I’ve made an error of empiricism!

Before, everyone was as shrewd as a ghost—empty board strategies, benching high-cost cards, playing low-quality ones, pursuing exquisite loss streaks... In short, they were full of tricks! Now, these guys are desperate to pull quality at level 4.

They don’t give Shen Mo any face at all; they just grab him and beat him to death!

”The Dragon Country person is too ridiculous.”

”Baka, this kind of person is my enemy; it’s practically an insult to me!”

Kim Soo-jun and Yotsuki Kami laughed. The two gave Shen Mo a sinister look and started whispering.

Gods Arena allows voice chat, provided both parties agree.

Now that these two idiots were sniping Shen Mo, they naturally colluded. They opened voice chat at the start of the game, paid points to have Gods Arena act as a translator, and started teaming up unscrupulously.

”Kim Soo-jun, I’ve already gotten a two-star Seraphine.”

”Yotsuki Kami, you really are impressive, but I’ve already gotten a Katarina!”

”Soka! Kim Soo-jun, you have good luck. Later we can get Kalista and use Shen Mo’s lineup to defeat him!”

”Yotsuki Kami is truly wise, samida!”

”Kim Soo-jun is still the better one, hahaha!”

”Yotsuki Kami is too modest! Gagaga!”

”What are these two idiots laughing at?” Shen Mo was full of question marks. He couldn’t understand their thought process; he could only see the two idiots whispering from far away, then giggling lewdly.

”Forget it, whatever. Anyway, I’ll beat you until you can’t laugh later.”

Shen Mo couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to them.

After being heavily damaged for three consecutive rounds, Shen Mo achieved his wish of reaching 8th place, and his health dropped to 86!

Three-game losing streak!

Stage 2-4, Carousel!

”It’s finally here...”

The hero pieces started refreshing, and when he saw the familiar attack speed item, Shen Mo’s eyes lit up!

[Kassadin, holding: Recurve Bow]!

Shen Mo almost wanted to sigh up to the heavens!

”Even the heavens can’t stand it anymore. If this doesn’t kill you, what will?”

Successfully getting Kassadin, Shen Mo was completely energized!

Carousel over!

Shop refresh!

Shen Mo didn’t hesitate at all and directly grabbed Jax from the shop!

Roll! Refresh! Two-star Jax!

Roll! Refresh! Two-star Lillia!

Leveled up to 5 population, grabbed another Nunu, and threw the crafted Guinsoo’s Rageblade and bloodthirster onto Kassadin. Shen Mo slowly stopped... Very good... Ashe + Kassadin + 2-star Jax + 2-star Lillia + Nunu!

3 Mowar + 2 Bastion!

Kassadin has two god-tier items!

It’s time to turn up the intensity on the opponents!

Outside the arena.

Sakura Country and the Korean team had already started clamoring!

After all, Shen Mo had lost three games in a row at the start, and now his health was in 8th place; it looked like his defeat was certain.

So.

”Hahaha!! Stupid Dragon Country person! Someone with this level dares to challenge the great Sakura Country!”

”Yotsuki Kami is already on a three-game winning streak!”

”As expected, the fate of Dragon Country is sealed this time!”

”Kim Soo-jun is equally powerful! Two-star Katarina is so strong, one ability hits a whole area!”

”Is this Kim Soo-jun’s true strength? Samida!”

On the arena.

Kim Soo-jun looked arrogant: ”Yotsuki Kami, it seems this game will be a duel between you and me.”

Yotsuki Kami also had a serious expression: ”Kim Soo-jun, experts are always drawn to each other like this. Very well! Since you requested it... I accept your challenge!”

Both of them were at 100 full health.

They hadn’t met in the first three rounds of duels. Now, seeing Shen Mo in 8th place, they were clearly getting a bit carried away.

They started putting on airs.

It was fortunate that Shen Mo wasn’t in the chat group, otherwise he definitely would have said: Are you two playing Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng?

Experts drawn to each other?!

Full moon night, Forbidden City summit, right?

Ximen Yotsuki? Gucheng Kim Soo-jun?

Stage 2-5!

Yotsuki Kami looked serious: ”Kim Soo-jun, it seems you’ve encountered the enemy first!”

Kim Soo-jun stood with his hands behind his back, looking arrogant: ”Yotsuki Kami, there will always be small obstacles on the road to ascending to godhood. Just wait a moment and watch how my two-star Katarina slaughters the stupid Dragon Country person...”
