Chapter 105: A Comeback or Defeat?

“Team Scarlet’s members have stood up from their seats.” The host’s voice rang out. “It looks like they’ve admitted defeat.”

The audience had regretful expressions on their faces, it looked like they wouldn’t be able to see a Support Lux with Mejai’s Soulstealer at 20 stacks after all. Even though she had reached 16 stacks, they had still lost the game.

It was such a pity.

“Oh? Look here, Lux is still resisting!” The host said suddenly.

The audience glanced at the big screen, and sure enough, they could see Lux still moving, flinging her skills toward her opponents.

“Is there any use?” The host wondered out loud. “Team Dawn is ignoring her existence and going straight for the tower.”

Light Binding!

Prismatic Barrier!

Lucent Singularity!

The light burst from her wand as she launched her skills, her slim figure constantly on the move. She was facing four full health opponents after all.

Xiao Dao, Huang Yu, Xiao Tongtong, and Xue Haiyang from Team Scarlet were almost out of their seats. However, when they saw Yu Luocheng still seated and playing, they were filled with doubt.

Was there any use in resisting?

The enemy team had already managed to break past the walls of their base and a huge wave of Super Minions were at their door. The skills that he was launching wouldn’t be able to defend against them at all.

On the other side, Yang Qianqian was also looking at Yu Luocheng, her face full of doubt. She couldn’t see his face very well due to the glass panel in front of the players and she couldn’t make out the expressions on his face. Even if anyone could see his face, they wouldn’t be able to tell what he was thinking at all.

Wasn’t it time to admit defeat?

When other players were playing, their eyes always show freedom, entertainment or indifference, but when Yu Luocheng was playing, his eyes were never serious. Yang Qianqian had known Yu Luocheng for a few months, and he always gave off the vibe that he was casual about everything.

He was a lazy person, no different than most otaku. On one hand, he had refused to participate in this E-sports tournament. On the other hand, he kept coming back to it, more persistent and serious about it than anyone else on the team.

It was already a lost game, but he was still resisting.

His hands were flying over the keyboard, fingers clicking on the mouse rapidly, eyes unmoving and focused on the screen. Yang Qianqian felt that it wasn’t about the tournament prize, rather, it was ingrained in his bones that he had never lost on screen before.

This was not temporary stubbornness, it was a deeply rooted belief from long ago!

***

Your tower has been destroyed!

Your tower has been destroyed!

Your tower has been destroyed!

The announcements came one after another, their towers were being destroyed. The Nexus was finally at the mercy of their opponent. The Super Minions were climbing up the path to the Nexus, and they were only left with a few melee and ranged minions to defend the crystal building.

“Lux has returned to the well, looks like they have to give in. We still have to salute Team Scarlet for getting... Oh wait a second, Lux is coming back out!” The host’s voice changed from solemnness to excitement within a split second. “She’s running out fast with Homeguard in effect!”

“This really is a persistent player! Oh, beautiful, that bind has successfully rooted Team Dawn’s key champions, Fizz and Varus!”

Light Binding!

It had caught Fizz and Varus!

Lucent Singularity!

Followed up by an ulti—Final Spark!

Fizz and Varus who were focused on attacking the Nexus could not avoid her skills, and their health was reduced by two thirds. Yu Luocheng had grasped this chance and managed to momentarily halt their movements.

“Demacia!”

A long beam of light shot out from Lux’s chest, shooting straight at Fizz and Varus’ face. They had quite a substantial amount of health, but Lux’s damage was unexpectedly high, and their health bar was emptied!

Double Kill !

It was a double kill! Both Fizz and Varus weren’t able to react, and they died to the sudden assault from Lux!

“This is terrifying, this Lux... it’s Rabadon’s!” The host bellowed. “Lux had bought a Rabadon’s Deathcap!”

When the announcement for the double kill appeared, the audience were stunned. Instantly killing the opponent’s AP and ADC, the two main damage dealers. Was she even a Support?

After getting the two kills, her Mejai’s Soulstealer was now at twenty stacks!

20 stacks were equivalent to an additional 160 AP!

A Void Staff with Athena’s Unholy Grail had 130 AP, including Rabadon’s Deathcap of 120 AP and the Deathcap’s additional overall 30% AP, Lux had about 650 AP. With 650 AP together with the magic penetration effects, it wasn’t surprising that she could instantly kill Fizz, what more that he wasn’t at full health.

Nobody knew when Yu Luocheng had bought a Rabadon’s Deathcap, but with the Rabadon’s Deathcap and Mejai’s Soulstealer stack at 20, this wasn’t a Support anymore. She was a terrifying existence in the game now, surpassing even Fizz’s damage!

***

Yang Ying and his teammates stared at the screen, dumbfounded.

‘What the fuck, is this a Support?’

That burst had changed Yang Ying’s perception toward this player. Noting that Volibear and Taric were still alive, he also noted that their health was not as high as he previously saw.

This was not good.

With Lux’s stats right now, once she threw up a Prismatic Barrier, Volibear and Taric wouldn’t deal much damage to her. That is to say, if they didn’t retreat now, they might actually be killed by Lux!

Yang Ying’s face twisted, looking again at their health bar. It wasn’t even half, it was lower than that!

“Just hurry and hit the Nexus! Ignore Lux! Hurry up!” Yang Ying hurriedly ordered.

Lin Laowu noticed how the situation with Lux was, and he didn’t dare to hesitate, bashing his keyboard to attack the Nexus. As long as the Nexus fell, they would win this game!

***

“Oh my god! With these items, you really can’t look away!” The host exclaimed, and the audience stood up from their seats.

The Nexus had less than half a health bar left.

Lux had twenty stacks on her Mejai’s Soulstealer and a Rabadon’s Deathcap. With these two items, it was enough to dispose of Taric and Volibear, who had less than half a health bar left too.

Now it was a race against time to see if Lux would manage to kill the two champions, or would the two champions manage to destroy the Nexus first.

They only needed about ten more basic attacks!

“It’s almost time for Team Scarlet to revive!”

“Team Dawn’s Volibear and Taric doesn’t intend to retreat, they need to bring down the Nexus in the next few seconds!”

“But if Lux manages to defend the Nexus, Team Dawn will be completely annihilated.’ The host announced hurriedly. “If that happens, the full members of Team Scarlet will likely be able to counter attack all the way to their base!”

There was no way anyone could keep calm and silent in this situation.

Team Dawn had underestimated the damage from Lux. Facing her destructive skills, they only had the option of destroying the Nexus at all costs.

As for Team Scarlet, as long as they could hold their ground this time with one champion defending the base and the others pushing straight into Team Dawn’s base, with Singed and Jarvan’s health as well as Jayce’s E to speed everyone up, combo-ed with their attack speed, it was possible to go all the way!

It was hard to believe that just a moment ago it was confirmed to be Team Dawn’s victory, and yet now, they were fighting in a life or death situation.

Will it be Team Dawn’s close call victory, or Team Scarlet’s comeback? This would all be determined in the next few seconds.

The audience held their breath, hearts beating furiously in their chests. Yin Qin’s nails were digging into his palm as he clenched his fist. Yang Qianqian and Wang Qin were also standing, and they didn’t dare to even blink as they watched the screen.

No one had expected that Yu Luocheng’s determination and stubbornness to give them a show that would make everyone’s heart feel as if it were about to jump out from their throats! The arena lapsed into a tense silence, and a knife could have cut through the tension in the air. Everyone was concentrated on the screen before them.

Light Binding!

Lucent Singularity!

The white lights were bursting, and she resembled a pure, innocent woman with her skills. However, as a Demacian Senior Cadet, she had another side to her. She would use her holy skills to bind enemies, attacking them with blasts of light and protecting her team with a shield, destroying everything with a beam of light.

She was an aggressive, battle-hardened warrior on the field!

Even without her ulti—Final Spark, the burst damage from her other skills could easily deal a devastating blow to her opponents.

Their Nexus was left with only a few drops of health, and it felt like it would collapse with just a touch. Yu Luocheng calmly controlled Lux’s movements.

An exhaust reduced the damage by Taric.

A skill extinguished Volibear.

The Nexus stood with that last bit of health left, no further damage to it.

It wasn’t destroyed! It held!

The announcement of the quadruple kill came suddenly in the background.

Quadra Kill!

The announcement sent everyone watching the screen into stunned amazement. In the previous match, Yu Luocheng and Huang Yu with Twisted Fate and Evelynn respectively had put on a performance in the Baron Pit that had claimed a quadruple kill that was hard to forget.

And in this round, Yu Luocheng was a Support and his Lux had clearly expressed what an unyielding force she was. Even when the tower was destroyed, he didn’t give up, and had even claimed a shocking quadruple kill instead.

Not forgetting that she had killed Riven previously, it was actually a pentakill.

A solo pentakill.

There were no words to describe this Support.

***

The five players from Team Dawn all had both eyes wide open, their faces filled with disbelief. Ian was faring the worst of them.

How could this happen?

How did it happen?

It was clearly a victory for them.

He had had a solo match with Lux before the tournament, and his skills were nothing at that time. But in this match, his moves and knowledge left Ian feeling like he was playing against someone better than a professional player! More importantly, he wasn’t even playing AP, he was just a Support who had no way to earn a high gold income!

What was worse than that?

***

A thundering applause rang out through the arena, followed by shouts of ‘Oh my god!’ as the audience’s excitement boiled over.

This was an outcome that no one had expected!

A Support Lux had turned the tides!

He wasn’t using Twisted Fate, but his determination and perseverance on Lux had touched everyone’s heart and left an unforgettable impression on them.

***

Team Scarlet was also in shock.

Aced!

They had aced their opponents!

This was a once in a lifetime opportunity! Xiao Tongtong, Xue Haiyang, Xiao Dao, and Huang Yu sat down immediately, not even bothering to wear their headphones. Their champions were going to be revived.

Break!

They had to push and break Team Dawn’s base!

They were going to win!

However, just as the four of them sat down, Yu Luocheng took off his headphones and stood up from his seat. The audience was silent as they watched Yu Luocheng. Why was he standing, the match was not over yet, they had to push Team Dawn’s base and finish it.

“We’ve lost.”

Yu Luocheng turned slowly, uttering those words.

Lost?

The remaining of his teammates could not comprehend his words. Their opponent was dead, how could they lose, doesn’t that mean they had won?

Yu Luocheng didn’t explain, the corner of his lips quirked up, a bitter smile on his face.

***

At the same time on screen, three Super Minions raised their hammers in unison, waving it above their heads together. The four members of Team Scarlet watched with wide eyes.

Super Minions!

They slammed their hammer downwards, crushing the crystal and taking away the last of their Nexus’ health.

The screen froze.

Then crystal exploded outwards, just as Yu Luocheng smiled bitterly.
