Chapter 413 The Incompetent Husband
If the Dragon Ball team was still communicating with each other when they were at a disadvantage in the first game, and everyone still had the idea of stabilizing the situation and finding opportunities to turn the tide, then now Dragon Ball has completely entered a silent phase.
After killing the Khan, Li Chen did not immediately return to the city, but continued to farm minions and control the lane.
With the healing array from his ultimate ability helping him recover, Li Chen was almost fully healed by the time Khan returned to the lane.
At this point, although the Khan had barely caught up with the equipment Li Chen bought on his first trip home, his level had fallen far behind, being two levels lower than Li Chen, and he still had no chance to fight back.
Nine minutes into the game, Li Chen suddenly used his Q ability to push forward, crossing the minion wave and applying his passive to Khan at the perfect distance.
This move startled Khan, who quickly used his E ability to retreat, saying, "Gragas might be up, Fiora is trying to make a move."
This is just a very ordinary hint. After all, someone in Li Chen's position cannot kill him alone, or even catch up with him. The fact that he suddenly made a move now most likely means that someone else has arrived.
But at the same time, a barrel suddenly flew out from the blue team's raptor pit in the middle lane, landing right behind Karma.
Having just received Khan's message that Gragas was on top, Karma was completely unprepared and didn't even use Flash before being blasted right into Tristana's face.
The rest is history: Scout used his E skill followed by a basic attack and a double jump, securing the kill on Karma.
BDD looked at his 0-2-0 score and his face darkened. He then typed two question marks at Khan in the top lane.
"Hey, didn't you say the barrel was on top? Why is he behind me?"
"I meant the barrel might be on the top lane..." Khan tried to defend himself.
After being caught in the mid lane, Cuzz felt he couldn't just do nothing, so he turned his attention back to the top lane.
He was farming the blue buff when, after confirming the location of the Gragas, he had a sudden inspiration: "Brother Qinghe, let me help you clear the minion wave and push it in."
After saying that, without waiting for the Khan's agreement or refusal, Cuzz picked up his halberd and ran towards the upper road.
The Khan opened his mouth, but ultimately did not refuse.
Seeing Cuzz walk straight out of the river, Li Chen didn't go back to buy items and didn't have his ultimate ability, so he didn't choose to fight head-on and obediently went back to the tower to wait for the minion wave to enter the tower.
After quickly pushing the lane into the tower, Cuzz turned and left without lingering in the top lane for even a second longer.
"I'm still short of money for the factory."
Li Chen calculated the economy in advance. After clearing the minion wave under the tower, he would still be a little short. He would definitely use teleport this time. He wouldn't feel comfortable until he completed his equipment.
The factory manager rolled his eyes, but he was too exhausted to refute anything. He simply ran to the upper half of the map and started attacking the monsters.
After clearing the minion wave and taking down a few low-health jungle monsters that no one wanted, Li Chen quickly accumulated enough gold coins and went home to buy Cloth Armor Boots and Ravenous Hydra from the shopkeeper in full.
Seeing Camille still struggling to control the lane, Li Chen smiled slightly and teleported directly to the minions.
"Khan, have you forgotten? Only the strong can control the lane!"
After landing and quickly clearing the minion wave with a few basic attacks, Li Chen led the minion wave into the tower, completely ignoring the prince who might not have gone far.
With his current abilities and Flash, it might be difficult for him to take on two opponents under the tower and kill them, but he can easily kill one and escape without any problem.
Seeing Fiora completely ignore him and carelessly start attacking the turret, Khan felt like an incompetent husband.
"Cuzz, come here, we have to kill him this time!"
Before taking action, Khan decided to call for help first, because he was no match for Fiora right now, not even under the tower.
"Here, take my head!"
Upon hearing Khan's last sentence, Cuzz immediately turned around and said, "I'll be right there, Donghe."
It's a little embarrassing to admit, but there's actually some unspoken competition within the Dragon Ball team right now, namely, who can get the first kill in this quarterfinals.
After all, we were already defeated by Linglong Tower in the last round, so we can't afford to be wiped out again in this round, right?
Moreover, Cuzz secured the first dragon in this game thanks to the advantage of the bottom lane, already far surpassing his teammates in terms of "contribution" to the team. If he gets another kill, his contribution will be so great that he can hardly believe it.
Cuzz quickly arrived at the triangular bush behind the first tower and marked Li Chen.
Khan did not hesitate and decisively stepped forward to initiate with a basic attack followed by his ultimate move.
His thinking was simple: if his ultimate could force Li Chen to use his W, then he and the prince could then maximize their crowd control.
If Li Chen doesn't use his W to tank the ultimate, he can leave Fiora under the tower.
Miller quickly explained: "C is pushing the tower, Cuzz is back, Dragon Ball is about to make a move, Khan auto-attacks followed by his ultimate, C didn't use W to block and got locked under the tower, Jarvan IV also came out, who will make the first move this time?"
"C-God didn't fight back. He was taking Camille's auto-attack damage head-on, trying to survive until his ultimate expired and get out of the tower. Jarvan IV came up, used EQ to attack, C-God used W to block, stunning the Camille next to him, and then the ultimate, when did the ultimate apply to Camille... and he was killed?"
Guan Zeyuan suddenly shouted, "What happened? Camille, who was almost at full health, was instantly killed and even used her Death Flash?"
Outsiders didn't see what just happened; they only saw the prince use his EQ combo to try and knock Li Chen away, but instead, it was Qing Gangying who was stunned.
Then a sword array appeared beneath Camille's feet, and she suddenly died, even using her Death Flash.
AEARWAQA闪EA!
Li Chen's fingers danced across the keyboard. He didn't retaliate at first, but instead adjusted his position until the prince approached, ready to make a move, so as not to give the Khan a chance to react.
A then initiated with EA to break the original vulnerability, and then initiated with RW when Camille was auto-attacking. Using Jarvan IV's skill to stun Camille, they quickly destroyed four vulnerabilities and completed this counter-kill.
Even without Camille, Cuzz still didn't want to give up and used his ultimate on Li Chen, hoping to kill him with the tower's damage.
At this point, Li Chen was standing on the healing array, attacking the newly arrived minions to heal himself. The turret couldn't suppress Li Chen's health at all. When Li Chen finally used his Q skill to leave the turret, he still had about 400 health left.
Cuzz watched Li Chen leave the tower and dared not pursue him any further, since he hadn't actually done any damage.
Knowing that the Khan still had teleportation, Li Chen didn't linger with the prince for too long. After quickly clearing the minion wave to recover some health, he turned and entered the river.
At this moment, Khan, who was waiting to be resurrected at home, stared blankly at the screen, unable to utter a single word.
