Li Cheng, a dark horse newcomer dormant in the jungle, regards league legend Qi Tan as his only target.
He stayed up late reviewing every game Qi Tan played and replaying every move he made, just so that one day he could stand on the same field.
But when Li Cheng stepped on the threshold of the qualifiers and parachuted into the Ember team to become the substitute jungler, he discovered that——
If you are too close to your idol, you will be tempted.
The team ban was posted in the most conspicuous place in the training room, but Qi Tan's eyes always stayed on him.
"Li Cheng, I will teach you the rules of the jungle."
"Captain, there is another rule you didn't teach me."
Li Cheng raised his head and looked into those amber eyes. His voice was as soft as a whisper, "It is forbidden to fall in love in the team, does that count?"
——————————————
1. Sheng Shi Ling
-Position: Mid laner (the core output position of the team)
- Personality: He talks little but is meticulous in his actions. He is Qi Tan's old partner. He initially had a wait-and-see attitude towards the newcomer Li Cheng, but later he was impressed by Li Cheng's hard work and would silently cooperate with him to find rhythm in training matches. Privately, I like to tinker with mechanical keyboards, and I am the "tech geek" in the team.
- Relationship with the protagonist: In the early stage, he was Li Cheng's "technical quality inspector", and in the later stage, he became the "people eating melon" between Li Cheng and Qi Tan. He occasionally used cold humor to tease the interaction between the two.
2. Wu Ang
-Position: Top laner (anti-pressure position/group opening position)
- Personality: A cheerful Northeastern guy with a loud voice who is responsible for the atmosphere of the team. Especially protecting his shortcomings, when Li Cheng was questioned by other youth trainees when he first joined the team, he was the first to stand up and speak for him. In the game, he has a fierce style and is good at fighting physical battles.
- Relationship with the protagonist: He regards Li Cheng as his younger brother, often dragging him to have late-night snacks with him, and secretly sharing Qi Tan's "dark history" with Li Cheng (such as the meal preparation operation when he first started playing professionally).
3. Chu Luyou
-Position: Auxiliary (roaming position/command support)
- Personality: The only female player in the team, she is thoughtful and one of the "tactical brains" of the team. She works well with Qi Tan and can accurately understand his jungle rhythm. She looks gentle on the outside, but is decisive and ruthless on the field, and is called "Sister Lu" by her fans.
- Relationship with the protagonist: He is Li Cheng's "assistant teacher", teaching him the details of coordination between jungler and support. He has also long seen Li Cheng's feelings for Qi Tan, and occasionally deliberately creates opportunities for the two of them to be alone.
4. Yan Xu
-Position: ADC (core bottom lane)
- Personality: A bit arrogant, with extremely high requirements for his own operation. At first, he disliked Li Cheng's jungle rhythm because he couldn't keep up with his own. Later, he was impressed by Li Cheng's progress and became the person in the team who relied on Li Cheng's jungle the most besides Qi Tan.
- Relationship with the protagonist: From "mutual rivalry partner" to "reliable teammate", he often bets with Li Cheng on ranking points, and if he loses, he invites the whole team to drink milk tea.
Purpose: Rules cannot bind sincerity, and love will naturally cross the line
