BXBX NOVEL Chapter 374 - Sona Double Kill!
Chapter 374: Sona Double Kill!
In her panic, Xiao Ya cast her ultimate skill, stunning Xin Zhao, however, Leona had saved her own crowd control for instances like this, and with Graves using his E-skill to follow up, Sona was killed in one swift combo!
They were suddenly faced with a 2 vs 3, and Xiao Ya hadn’t contributed anything except an ultimate that briefly stunned Xin Zhao, and she became a graceful sacrifice once again.
“Demacia!”
Zhou Yan had been withholding his ultimate for the longest time and the window of opportunity when he chose to use it was nothing less than perfect, which was exactly when all the three enemies were focused on killing Xiao Ya. His ultimate was able to surround Graves, Xin Zhao, and Leona, and after blocking them in, Jarvan Flashed out hastily.
Simply trapping enemies in Jarvan’s ultimate didn’t guarantee a win, in this type of situation, for him to stay in the Cataclysm that he had created with the three other enemies would only be digging his own grave!
Ulti-ing in and then Flashing out, it was all to create a wall in front of Luocheng, giving him the perfect vantage point to deal the most damage.
Boomerang Blade!
The three of them had nowhere to run, taking in the damage of the attack in its entirety.
Activating his W-skill, Ricochet, all 3 extra hits were just enough to hit the three helpless enemies.
Jarvan himself turned to poke with his Q-skill, skewering the three trapped champions, and before long, all the enemies only had about half of their health remaining!
“Nice ulti, Zhou Yan!” K and Xu Ben’s eyes lit up.
A single trap enclosing three people and then Flashing out to let the ADC toy with his opponents outside the barricade, that move was simply spectacular!
Scrawny Monkey’s Leona had had enough, finally Flashing out and stunning Zhou Yan’s Jarvan with her Q-skill.
Jarvan was doing pretty well, and even after getting stunned, the short-ranged Graves and Xin Zhao with no dashes left couldn’t retaliate at all. This left Leona to take the brunt of the damage dealt while Luocheng hid behind Zhou.
“Whoosh~”
Suddenly, a blue-colored energy began to whirl and collect itself around a blue minion!
The next thing you knew, Malphite dropped from the sky, jumping up again as soon as it landed and turning into a massive meteor with its targets being the two poor champs that were still stuck in Jarvan’s Cataclysm.
“BOOM!”
Graves and Xin Zhou were knocked high into the sky, both of them dying to a single Boomerang Blade that had been sent out by Sivir!
DOUBLE KILL!!!
They had gotten a double kill!!
There was still a Leona left, don’t even think about getting away!
Combined with Da Luo’s slow from his Q-skill, Luocheng chased down the Leona with a new-found fervor.
Xiao Ya was already dead, no one would kill-steal him, right?
TRIPLE KILL!
Things had been looking a little dicey before Malphite’s arrival, but after he came, the enemy was wiped clean off the rift, the sound of their ADC’s triple kill ringing in their ears for quite some time.
Qinjin’s face had turned red in anger.
“Why didn’t you f*cking Teleport down! D*mn it!” Qinjin scolded their Top, Coconut Head!
“I…I used up all my mana using my Q-skill…” Coconut Head replied in a regretful tone of voice.
He had stayed in the lane for too long. Teleporting down without any mana would just give Luocheng a quadra kill, so he had decided to just standby and watched as Malphite flew down to the bottom lane.
“Yay, yay!” Seeing Luocheng get a triple kill, Xiao Ya exclaimed excitedly.
She was still worrying whether or not she had cost them that fight, but who knew Zhou Yan could pull off such a cool trick, trapping 3 people with his ultimate skill and then Flashing out. Da Luo had also followed up magnificently with a quick Teleport, cleaning up their mess with a single ulti.
To be honest, even if Nasus had had any remaining mana to spare, teleporting down wouldn’t have done much. A Malphite that had passed level 6 contributed way more to a team fight than a post-level 6 Nasus ever could. Graves and Xin Zhao would have still died regardless of whether he had teleported down or not, at most, all he could’ve done was help to peel for Leona.
“So much synergy! Waiting for them to use up their Flash and movement abilities, trapping them in Cataclysm, following up with a Teleport…” K and Xu Ben couldn’t believe their eyes.
If their team had this level of synergy, they would’ve easily become the kings of Hangzhou and Zhejiang! Their master was indeed on a different plane of existence.
In actuality, this should’ve been a classic level 6 5 vs 5 team fight as Team Zhejiang had been holding up pretty well with their Jungler sensing danger and counter-ganking in response, not to mention both teams Top’s had brought Teleport, and also, the mid laners had been on their way down to support them.
Unfortunately, 4 of Team Skycrown members were there and their Top had run out of mana and decided not to teleport down, which was a smart choice. Teleport had a pretty long cool down, at least now if there were any other fights, Nasus will be able to rush over while the Malphite wouldn’t be able to help his own team.
On the other hand, the mid laners weren’t there because they were having a skirmish of their own in the river, and Wu Sen had successfully sent the enemy mid laner all the way back to base.
***
“Xiao Ya, you got the assists, right?” Luocheng asked.
“Yup.” Xiao Ya nodded, she had indeed gotten a portion of the gold from all 3 kills.
“Don’t buy anymore wards, buy a few mana potions so that you can keep healing me, then just keep the rest of your gold for now,” Luocheng instructed.
Xiao Ya was a bit confused but obediently followed what Luocheng had told her to do.
Xiao Ya had gold generating runes, so, even without getting a Philosopher’s Stone, she was gaining gold at a relatively fast pace, added on to the couple of assists she had gotten, she was now sitting on quite a pile of gold.
After getting a triple kill, Luocheng bought two wards.
The spectating Lin Dong had a realization as he saw what had transpired.
When carrying girls, you shouldn’t even hope for them to ward at all, because for them, warding a bush was no different than just face-checking, basically giving the enemy team a free kill. It had been like that when Lin Dong had played with Xiao Ya as well.
So, class, Mr. Luocheng has a new lesson for us nerds, being, when carrying girls, make sure you “look” out for yourself.
***
With 3 kills, Luocheng had a clear advantage in the lane. He knew the cooldowns of his enemies’ ultimates, plus with Sona giving him unparalleled healing, he was invincible!
“Xiao Ya, your ultimate should be up soon, right?” Luocheng asked.
Xiao Ya look at the cooldown on her ultimate, it only had 5 seconds left, and she was a bit taken aback by how Luocheng knew that without even so much as glancing at her screen,
“When I cast my ultimate later, I want you to run up to Graves and use your ultimate, remember to get closer to him before using your ultimate!” Luocheng said.
“Okay!”
Xiao Ya had at least some skill when it came to Sona, thus, when Luocheng counted down from three, Xiao Ya rushed forward!
Luocheng in turn activated his ultimate to speed up Xiao Ya.
The girl could never hit using her ultimate skill, but with a 60% movement speed buff, she couldn’t possibly miss Graves when she was right in front of him, right?
The enemy Leona used all of her abilities in a vain attempt to CC Sona, but Xiao Ya still managed to cast her ultimate.
Luocheng quickly circled over, walking past Leona in favor of taking down Graves!
A single Boomerang Blade that carried frighteningly high damage cut almost half of Graves’ health, followed up with her passive to help run him down!
“Xiao Ya, focus on Graves, not Leona!” Luocheng reminded.
Xiao Ya’s hands shook as she tried to target Graves, finally taking him down with an auto attack just as he turned to run away.
You Have Slain an Enemy!
“Ah, sorry, I didn’t mean to take the kill!” Looking at the Graves that she had just killed, Xiao Ya hurriedly apologized.
Lin Dong shook his head solemnly, thinking to himself, even if you’ve had experience carrying girls, Luocheng, you still couldn’t avoid getting your kills stolen by them, huh?
“It’s okay, hurry up and heal yourself, there’s still Leona,” Luocheng said.
Xiao Ya wasn’t bad at Sona, and after healing herself, she even managed to use her power chord Tempo to slow Leona down.
All this while, Luocheng continued to deal out major damage onto Leona, As Xiao Ya also continued auto attacking, she didn’t quite know why her Sona was healing far less today, but on the other hand, she was also dealing more damage, accidentally KO-ing Graves who had had decently high health, even going as far as to dishing out a decent amount of damage on Leona.
The both of them chased Leona to the enemy turret with Luocheng tanking in front.
“Xiao Ya, one more auto attack and she’s finished!” Luocheng said.
Xiao Ya didn’t hesitate any longer, using their combined speed boosts to rush under the tower and attack. Indeed, Leona was just one hit away from death, Xiao Ya didn’t even need to use her Q-skill!
Double Kill!
Xiao Ya majestically stole two kills!!
In the back, Xu Ben, K, Lin Dong, and Jian Feng, were all shaking their heads in unison.
If those two kills had been given to Luocheng, Luocheng would be practically invincible, killing anyone he would come across, but alas, they were both stolen by Xiao Ya.
“Ahh… How did I get the kill again, I…I really didn’t mean to.” Xiao Ya was almost on the verge of tears.
She couldn’t believe she had stolen the kill again. This match wasn’t like any of the previous ones she had participated in before where she could feed with no worries. This time, if they lost this, it would be a matter of her dignity as a girl.
Xiao Ya was scared, she had only realized that she’d messed with the wrong person when Xu Ben told her that even the cops wouldn’t be able to solve their problem. Thus, she had been playing very, very carefully this time, not attempting to do any cute stuff, and yet somehow, she still managed to steal their ADC’s kills.
“How much gold do you have now?” Luocheng asked.
During their previous fight at level 6, their team had taken the Dragon as well, boosting their team economy quite a bit.
With Xiao Ya getting two more kills by accident in the bottom lane battle, she was probably pretty rich now.
“Quite a lot,” Xiao Ya replied.
“Okay, then buy this,” Luocheng said.
“Huh!?”
“Just buy it.”
“Okay…”
“Zhou Yan, Wu Sen, pay more attention to the bottom lane, we’ll need your help,” Luocheng requested.
Wu Sen and Zhou Yan both nodded their heads in unison.
***
Team Zhejiang’s second red buff would be up soon and Zhou Yan had obviously planned on invading, gaining control of the vision on the bottom side map on the way, snagging the second Dragon while he was at it.
But the enemy team could foretell Zhou Yan’s intentions and so, their Mid, Jungler, and bottom laners quickly appeared in the jungle.
Zhou Yan was able to steal the red buff, but he also caused an unavoidable war!
The skirmish at the buff happened very suddenly, and both top laners weren’t able to react immediately.
However, Nasus still had his Teleport, whereas Da Luo’s hadn’t come off from it’s cooldown from his previous support at the bottom lane.
In a 4 vs 4 situation, Team Skycrown would have the obvious advantage seeing as Team Zhejiang’s bottom lane were already at a 0/5 deficit, but if Nasus were to teleport down, the tables would be turned!
“Sh*t, Nasus is teleporting!” Xu Ben yelled.
