Chapter 286: It began with CQ, and would end with CQ! |
The central zone was buzzing with activity! HdIigY
Outside the circle of light, restless ancient beasts were slamming their bodies against the shield in attempts to break into Sky Island.
The fighting players within the circle of light were displayed over three panels.
The director felt inexplicably relieved. Three grids or something similar was much easier to set up than a nine square grid!
The top left panel held Yuan Ze and Old G vs Xie He and Miller. 6a31kR
This was the ultimate PK between the strongest top-jungler and Glory’s strongest mage god. These two were already old opponents; even without mentioning the Team of Gods period, they had already fought countless times during L&P and Pro’s team competitions.
Old G was passionate about 2v2 and played fiercely with the help of his top-jungler combination. He often targeted EVE’s mid-laner in competitions, and he would reward himself with a Boston lobster every time he managed to kill God Xie!
But was Xie He afraid of others messing with him?
The one thing he and Kim Sung-hyun feared least was jungler kings. aMhIlG
When they soloed within their team, even Little Close could only tie with them. Where did other junglers get the confidence to try to suppress them?!
So… Old G wanted to kill Xie He, and Xie He also wanted to kill him.
What made this more interesting was that there wasn’t much difference in equipment, gold, and skill points between these four. One pair had suffered in the Moonlight Wetlands and had completely relied on God M to develop; the other had been yelling about fighting and killing in the Thousand Needle Forest, but Teacher Yuan never shared his resources. He snatched up whatever he could, and if Old G couldn’t do it, he should make way and wait for him to carry. mdJ71B
Coupled with their cost-effectiveness with support, the four of them were really in similar states.
As for who could kill who? This would all depend on their individual performance.
Xie He’s strategy for dealing with mad dogs was to be even crazier than they were. So, even before Yuan Ze and Gary could rush over, he’d already charged over first. Clouds covered his body, and thousand layers of clouds were poised to strike.
Miller followed up calmly, not at all surprised. He even seemed to be very used to it. nm2JQW
Not treating one’s own mid-laner as a petulant little princess was a basic requirement for EVE’s support.
What protection? Just prevent the pufferfish from self-destructing and be done with it!
Yuan Ze was quite skilled at dealing with immortal warlocks. He used his death knight’s heavy sword and had a 100% success rate with shooting down these flashy fellows.
What thousand layers of clouds? What light arcs or no light arcs? Had they asked Teacher Yuan’s sword? rnPMK5
Xie He didn’t panic either after his skill was interrupted, sidestepping to avoid Old G’s mark. He instantly switched to his spirit mage talent and quickly rolled five or six yards away.
Old G pounced over like a mad dog, wanting to stab the spirit mage. Xie He sneered and switched talents again. When the void mage landed, Old G instantly panicked and shouted, “Captain, help me!”
Yuan Ze: “Save you, my ass.” His words were full of curses, but the blood warrior had already rushed over with its sword and stabbed the void mage’s scalp-numbing tentacle.
Old G barely managed to stay alive, his heart filled with lingering fear. “The void mage is really disgusting.” PSE2ea
Yuan Ze: “Something’s wrong!”
The void mage fully demonstrated his advantage in reach even as Yuan Ze spoke. One attack was interrupted, but it was followed immediately by another. The void mage’s figure swayed slightly as his tentacle landed, and in a single second, he arrived behind Yuan Ze. It only took one shift in position to perfectly separate Old G from Yuan Ze!
The battlefield was split. Xie He switched to the immortal warlock again and aimed at Gary.
Old G didn’t have any skills that could send his opponent flying and didn’t have any way to interrupt the thousand layers of clouds. Based on Xie He’s speed… 6PGQcX
Gary gritted his teeth, “I’ll take him down with me!”
That was all that could be done. Xie He would raise thousand layers of clouds, and Gary would stack up eight light arcs. The goal would be to perish together!
And it really worked. Although Gary was 0.1 seconds slower, the damage from the light arcs overflowed due to how close they were to each other, and it was enough to kill Xie He.
As long as Xie He died, then it was easy for Yuan Ze to kill Miller. MBdylx
This was the reasoning behind it, but God M wasn’t just a decoration.
The elemental shaman tossed out a totem towards Xie He at maximum distance. Old G’s screen darkened and dimmed completely, while Xie He stood up again after two seconds of darkness.
Yuan Ze had prepared for this early on. He knew that Xie He could resurrect, so he’d never slacked off from the start.
He approached with his light form, then used his heavy form to strike. Xie He dodged the first hit, then switched to the spirit mage to attack instead of retreat. He rolled towards the death knight to unleash a flying combo that caused dizziness. Gkd9yR
The attack from Yuan Ze was amazing! Xie He, who’d only been at half health after resurrecting, was critically injured again in an instant. Just as he saw another incoming attack that would send him off-stage, Miller came over to block it.
