Chapter 513: Formidable Monkey King!

Lianda was enjoying his dominance over Nidalee when he suddenly saw Vi with a pair of giant gauntlets dashing out from the southwest position.
He would have escaped through the river on the right if Nidalee had not conveniently moved there and blocked off his escape path.
However, Lianda did not panic. It was common for him to deal with this sort of ambush when playing Ziggs. He calmly walked past Nidalee and scattered a handful of proximity mines to hinder Vi’s march. He wouldn’t allow Vi to close the distance gap easily.
Zuoshen was vigilant and maneuvered Vi to avoid the minefield, her fists charged up at the same time.
“Boom, baby!”
Vi leaped and turned into a giant fist that rushed toward Ziggs face.
Lianda who was retreating suddenly came to an abrupt halt and turned back. This sudden change of direction allowed him to evade Vi’s punch. He then stepped leisurely into the minefield right in front of Vi and Nidalee, as though he was provoking them to chase after him. ‘Step through it if you dare. I will skin you alive.’
Ziggs did not stop moving and Nidalee was determined to kill him, so she stepped fearlessly through the minefield.
The Hexplosive mines not only slowed her down, but also dealt a ton of damage on Nidalee. Soon, she was left with half of her health after struggling through the explosion.
Vi swiftly followed. She avoided the mines by taking Nidalee’s path and caught up to Ziggs quickly.
Her punch that was embedded with the red buff hit Ziggs solidly, slowing him down while burning him with true damage. Vi then threw another punch and further reduced Ziggs armor.
Lianda reflectively cast his W-skill to release Satchel Charge when Vi came close. The Satchel dropped right under him, which was also stepped on by Vi.
Ziggs W-skill would work wonders if it was executed perfectly. A pre-calculated explosion not only would bounce himself out of danger, but also knock back and damage his immediate enemies.
Lianda’s mastery of this champion was top-notch. The Satchel exploded immediately and launched Ziggs far away from Vi.
Despite that, Walker’s Nidalee was persistent. Her Javelin flew across the air and hit the bull’s eye right where Ziggs landed. The toss took away a large chunk of HP from Ziggs.
Seeing the kill opportunity, Zuoshen marched on dedicatedly and kept up his attack. Nidalee also Flashed in to maintain her damage output on Lianda.
Lianda had used his Flash earlier when he was pressuring Nidalee. He accepted his fate after both the enemies had surrendered their Flash to put him down. This did not mean that he was going to let them have their way without putting up a fight.
He first fell back slightly and cast the Bouncing Bomb on the two pursuers.
With his life reducing fast, Lianda activated his Barrier to delay the inevitable and landed another flurry of attacks on the two enemies.
Bam!
Another punch hit Ziggs in the face and Lianda was out of tricks this time. He could only watch as Ziggs groaned in pain and turned into a pile of ash.
Walker finally put up a smile after they managed to finish Ziggs off.
‘Dang it, it cost us two Flash to kill him. This guy is quite good at kiting and repositioning.’
Zuoshen had taken a kill at the top lane and this was his second. The opponent’s Wukong, meanwhile, had been MIA so far. He used the tab button to check on the Monkey King’s status and it showed Level 1.
‘That’s really odd. Why has this Jungler still not shown himself when those at the lanes have already reached Level 4 or 5? His presence can hardly be felt.’
Zuoshen sneered, but just as soon as he had finished chastising Wukong for hiding his tail in the jungle forever, the Doran’s Staff promptly appeared on the screen.
Pow!
The staff hit on Vi’s face mercilessly. Vi had been kited away and drained of quite a lot of HP by Ziggs earlier, and she dropped to the ground after another two hits from Wukong and died bitterly.
‘Where did he come out from?’
Zuoshen looked at Vi’s corpse sullenly and realized that he had to warn Nidalee. However, it was already too late. Wukong had dashed toward Nidalee on its Nimbus Cloud in under a second.
Walker’s Nidalee was low in health as well. Wukong’s abrupt entrance terrified him and he instinctively worked his fingers to shield and heal his champion.
The Monkey King was in no rush and he “escorted” Nidalee all the way back to her turret.
He did not attack Nidalee because her Barrier would last for 2 seconds, but as soon as the Barrier was down, Wukong instantly launched his staff right onto her face. He followed that up with an auto-attack, the Q-skill for armor break, and then another auto-attack.
The Monkey King was ferocious, never once leaving Nidalee’s side even after she had re-entered the turret’s range.
Walker’s Nidalee only had one last drop of HP left, and he paced around the turret, hoping that Wukong would be killed first.
“Jeez, he’s going to get himself killed! Why is he so persistent?” Lianda exclaimed as he watched Wukong sustain the heavy damage from the turret just to get Nidalee killed.
This was unnecessary. Wukong still had the blue buff although it was going to wear off soon.
Moreover, the price would be too hefty if he was counter-killed. Not only would he lose his life, he would also be handing the blue buff over to the opponent.
Lianda didn’t know who was the player behind Wukong. He watched him tower-dive at a mere Level 4 and assumed that he would not be getting out of this alive.
Finally, Wukong was able to take the last hit and wrapped up the kill. He started to walk out from the turret with extremely low HP, there was no way he could take another hit from the turret.
Bam!
He Flashed!
The turret had lit up and was about to release the beam, even the sound effect had rung out. Nonetheless, Wukong had managed to Flash across the wall in that final moment and successfully escaped the turret’s attack range.
The timing and position of the Flash were at its very limit. A tad slower and the tower would still attack, a tad earlier and he would be hitting the wall. Lianda couldn’t believe his eyes as he witnessed Wukong survive the certain death that he had predicted.
As the “Double Kill” announcement echoed in Lianda’s mind, his eyes were beaming with admiration. ‘This Wukong is legit!’ He himself would have given up the moment Nidalee entered the turret range with her Barrier on.
‘Formidable, truly formidable!’
