Chapter 206: Massacre, Asmodai’s True Colors II

Thanks to Caitlyn’s super long range, the wall was not a hindrance, but a natural shelter to her. The gap between the walls had also been shut tight by her teammates, and such a sniping position was the most comfortable one an ADC could ever dream of.

As Yang Ying dived toward Team Skycrown using Morgana’s ulti, Asmodai leaned behind the wall and attacked Riven with a flurry of shots. Riven in turn tried to escape, but was detained by Elise.

Right after he had snapped out of Elise’s stun, Thresh’s Death Sentence arrived next. Riven had just gotten out desperately from Morgana’s Soul Shackles, only to be dragged right back into the skill range.

The non-stop CC made Riven’s resistance futile, and she quickly succumbed to Caitlyn’s Headshot!

***

Morgana’s Soul Shackles did not catch a lot of targets as Team Skycrown always managed to disengage appropriately when struck by such an AoE CC skill.

When the 2.5-second invincibility granted by Zhonya’s Hourglass ended, she immediately became the main aim of Team Skycrown. Zyra’s Grasping Roots, Vayne’s ulti, and Brand’s skills with burst damage were all thrown at Morgana.

Yang Ying had placed Morgana in an awful position, and after giving up her Soul Shackles and stasis, Morgana’s death was inevitable.

Luocheng frowned after Morgana died in such a rapid fashion. He had not done much other than retaining the opponent’s jungler and the dead Riven.

Yang Ying had timed his charge and Zhonya’s Hourglass activation way too early making his death a little worthless, since his courageous attack had not even forced out Zyra’s ulti.

After Morgana had been killed, only Thresh, Elise, and Caitlyn, were left in the jungle.

Luocheng did not move forward recklessly as his remaining HP was not going to hold up against Team Skycrown’s high damage.

Xiao Jia was wiser too, this time, he did not charge forward but remained alongside Asmodai like Luocheng. This ensured Asmodai’s safety and allowed him to attack without worries.

Thresh and Elise’s control skills would create enough space for Caitlyn to deliver her maximum damage.

The four members from Team Skycrown began to close in on Team SHU after Morgana was killed. The first that rushed in was Jax, and he planned to break Team SHU apart with Counter Strike.

He was followed by Vayne, Brand, and Zyra that still possessed Stranglethorns. Thresh slid to the side the first time.

“Ha!”

Stranglethorns!

The vines intertwined like numerous mambas were twitching their bodies, and the thorns spread out and would knock any enemy they came into contact with up into the air.

Caitlyn immediately cast Protect and switched between attacking and moving proficiently, not stopping her barrage of attacks on Jax while evading the vines that reeled ferociously toward her. If Caitlyn was hit and stunned, Jax’s damage would be enough to take her life before she regained consciousness.

Nevertheless, she was fearless amidst the emerging vines and stood firm, maintaining her offense on Jax.

The Stranglethorns finally broke through the ground and Caitlyn lit the Soul Lantern at the final second and glided away from Zyra’s thorns as graceful as a spirit.

She landed beside Thresh once again and even across the wall, Caitlyn had not loosened up her attacks on Jax.

Jax had run out of options and could only save himself by casting another round of Counter Strike and retreated behind his comrades.

Caitlyn did not advance further as Brand was coming in quickly. However, she was not daunted by Brand, a well-known nemesis of ADCs. Ordinary ADC players would have backed off a long time ago when they saw Brand with a full arsenal lurching toward them.

Locked in behind the wall, Asmodai clicked on Brand furiously. Brand did not flinch despite the heavy fire, ignoring Thresh who walked past him and focused his skill on Caitlyn behind the wall.

The Pillar of Flame began to muster beneath Caitlyn and she used Caitlyn’s E-90 Caliber Net reflectively to evade yet another deadly skill from Team Skycrown.

The fiery Peacemaker coming out from Caitlyn’s gun penetrated Brand’s body, the latter instantly losing half of his HP.

Lin Dong looked at Caitlyn’s HP, which only had about a third left. He still had two skills available, so if Caitlyn dared to come forward, he could easily put the Sheriff down.

He marched on despite Brand being slowed, however, after two steps forward, Thresh’s Scythe suddenly flew in from the sidewall and hooked him right on his chest.

Lin Dong was startled at first, but then he grinned.

‘F*ck if I care! I don’t believe Asmodai has the guts to come out from hiding!’

Pew! Pew!

A headshot sandwiched by two normal hits pounded on Brand’s face. Lin Dong’s expression froze and he cursed, “How dare he!”

After those three hits, Brand was left with only a quarter of his HP.

Lin Dong pressed on the E-key nonstop, trying to cast Ignite on Caitlyn the moment Thresh’s CC time was up.

After securing the three hits, Caitlyn retreated to safety hastily. Brand chased after her but just as he was about to reach her, the cunning Sheriff made a sharp turn and stepped into the fog!

Nothing was more exasperating than this. She had disappeared from Brand’s sight just when he thought that he had gotten her with his lock-on skill.

What was even more annoying was that he had then been repelled backward by Thresh’s Fray, and not only that, he had been slowed once again. Before he could attempt to take his revenge, Thresh had long rushed back into the brush.

“Calibrating… Target marked.”

From a shade not too far away, a red aiming line suddenly pointed at Brand’s chest.

“Shit!” Lin Dong couldn’t help but bawl.

A second later, a bullet wrapped in raging flames was fired out from the dark spot, exploding right on Brand’s body.

Boom!

The clean shot snatched away Brand’s final bar of HP, and he turned into a pile of ash that floated miserably to the ground.

Thresh emerged from the brush and strolled above Brand’s burnt corpse with a HP amount that could have easily been emptied if Brand had still been alive.

Thresh purposely paused in front of Brand’s corpse and taunted him by swaying his Scythe, clearly mocking Lin Dong’s naivety.

Imagining the satisfaction on Luocheng’s face, while Lin Dong’s face turned gloomy and mumbled, ‘I should have thrown all my skills at your f*cking face, you son of a b*tch!’

***

Brand had been equipped with a blue buff, and after the buff had been transferred to Caitlyn due to the kill, she became even more daunting!

Suddenly, Caitlyn raised her hand and the Piltover Peacemaker was fired out from her shotgun without warning.

The Peacemaker whistled through the air, and while everyone was still questioning why she had released a random shot, the DOUBLE KILL announcement shocked everyone inside the room!

It was Jax!

Even when being threatened by the aggressive Brand, Caitlyn had not missed Jax’s movement, who had planned to sneak up from the flank.

His insight and prediction on the skill projectile was masterclass, and Luocheng, who was looking over at Jax’s remains, couldn’t hold back his smile.

Zhou Yan, just like Lin Dong, had underestimated Asmodai. They should not have tried to apply a bully’s tactic that was effective only against the commoners, on a true professional like Asmodai.

Watching Jax fall to Caitlyn, Lin Dong took off his earphones and gestured a thumbs down to Zhou Yan who was seated one seat away.

Zhou Yan could only respond with a bitter laugh. ‘This Asmodai is scarily observant. He definitely had no vision over me just now but he must have guessed my intention when I passed by Elise who had just been killed not too long ago.’

He had been planning to sacrifice himself so that when Xiao Bei and Wu Sen arrived, Vayne could harvest the kill easily…

‘Well, I am too naïve.’

“Xiao Bei, Wu Sen, we’re counting on the two of you,” Zhou Yan said.

Xiao Bei nodded, he was approaching the warzone fast after they had exterminated Elise.

Vayne was in a relatively healthy condition now, brimming with the confidence to defeat Caitlyn if they fought head-on.

Zyra led the way and they bumped into the heavily wounded Thresh first.

Flash!

Zyra was decisive, using Grasping Roots immediately as soon as he got close to Thresh.

Thresh was unable to juke himself away from the skill as the whole area had been infested by Zyra’s Stranglethorns.

‘That’s too much. You didn’t have to use Flash to kill me!’ Luocheng could only watch helplessly as Vayne came forth and ended his overdue survival.

Pew! Pew!

Caitlyn didn’t have much HP left but she still attacked valiantly. Zyra’s HP dropped insanely quickly within the short time frame that Thresh had been holding her at bay.

Wu Sen hastily dragged Zyra back to hide behind Vayne. He reckoned Asmodai would not be bold enough to move forward. After all, Vayne could have easily finished her off judging by Caitlyn’s limited HP. Unexpectedly, Asmodai was fiercer than he’d thought, ignoring the approaching Vayne and firing one last shot at Zyra.

‘Phew… That was close…’

But his luck did not last long, as the true damage from the red buff eventually reduced Zyra’s HP to zero.

“Argh~”

Zyra turned into a bud after letting out a painful shriek.

“Damn it! You two have gifted him double buffs!” Wu Sen scolded his teammates with great dissatisfaction.

The blue buff was from Lin Dong while the red buff had been given by Jax, and the double buffs had turned Caitlyn into a brutal killing machine. Asmodai was simply unstoppable!

Zhou Yan and Lin Dong immediately pretended that they were busy choosing equipment and didn’t hear or see Wu Sen’s angry expression.

TRIPLE KILL!

From being cornered to garnering a triple kill, Asmodai had completed an unimaginable comeback!

In fact, the kill on Riven also belonged to Asmodai, but it was not counted in the streak, as she was killed a tad earlier.

So theoretically, Asmodai had amassed a quadra kill!

Not to forget this was done in a 4v5 situation.

Asmodai’s strength as a top ADC in the country was laid bare in this match, and even the members of Team Skycrown with incredible personal skills had fallen one after another under his Caitlyn’s gunpoint.

Such was Asmodai’s true colors under his gentle appearance. He was showcasing a massacre here!
