Chapter 140: Team Up

‘Caitlyn, you’ve won!’

After he had a taste of Caitlyn’s ferocity at Level 6, Yu Luocheng decided to ignore other champions and focused solely on nuking Caitlyn during the mid-game team fight.

But this Caitlyn was truly versatile. The player had utilized Caitlyn’s longer attack range than other champions to its perfection. Her attacking position and timings were simply flawless.

Kennen’s Flash-Ulti combo had little effect on Caitlyn because by then, he would already be too far away from his teammates. Depending on his own damage to finish Caitlyn off was even more unrealistic. After all, Caitlyn’s SP was a healer—Soraka.

Two of their earlier losses (once, a triple kill and double buffs, another time, a double kill when Yu Luocheng had tried to gank at level 6) had turned the opponent’s Caitlyn into an unstoppable force. She was like an ultimate boss that conquered the towers and Baron Nashor freely without much resistance. None of Yu Luocheng’s teammates could match or sustain her merciless shots now.

Most importantly, this Caitlyn had not made a single error in her positioning and control. Yu Luocheng being the better-farmed top lane was also unable to limit Caitlyn’s growth effectively.

They stood no chance to make a comeback in this game after two of their high grounds were breached so badly. Yu Luocheng bitterly discovered that Caitlyn had not died at all so far.

“F*ck it. This must be a subsidiary account of a top tier ADC. She must be having fun bullying us,” TTYA said resentfully.

“This ID looks familiar, I must have seen it somewhere...” Sitcom chipped in.

They had basically lost this match. The opponent’s team was gearing to end the game with the Hand of Baron. It looked like his teammates had already thrown in the white towel.

“Oh, which team is that player in?” TTYA asked.

Yu Luocheng checked the ID of Caitlyn’s player and figured this person might be a she as the ID was named Shallow Dream 1 .

‘What an elegant ID. Still, the in-game Caitlyn feels more like a nightmare rather than a dream. I wonder what kind of ugly pervert is hiding behind this beautiful nickname.’

“She is not from any teams but I may have heard some senior players mentioning her before,” Sitcom said.

TTYL and TTYA were speechless. They felt humiliated after being trashed by a player that wasn’t even in a professional team. While they were lamenting, the opponent team had swiftly reached their front door after taking down the Baron.

Yu Luocheng was on a mission. He saw that Soraka had left Caitlyn’s side so he decided to intercept her from the side, and finally, Kennen managed to shut down Caitlyn for the first time in this game.

Of course, her death had little impact on the game at this point. Caitlyn had already dealt enough damage to his team and killing her made no difference to the outcome.

Defeat!

‘Sigh, a loss. Ten points deducted. It seems that I need a couple more days before I can reach 2000 League Points.’

The problem was, he would not have much time to spend on LoL once military training 1 began next week. Yu Luocheng looked at the time. It was only 9 pm so he clicked continue and queued for another game.

High tier ranked games usually took a while to assign players. Yu Luocheng peeked at Bai Feifei who was sat beside him as he waited in boredom. Bai Feifei had never moved her eyes away from her own screen, paying no attention to Yu Luocheng.

“What are you doing?” Yu Luocheng asked casually.

“I’m searching for information regarding the postgraduate exams,” Bai Feifei replied.

“...” Yu Luocheng did not know what to say.

‘Gosh, you have only just gotten into university, the military training has not even started yet, and you are already checking for the postgraduate exams? What a freak!!!’

She had come to the lab for real-world knowledge, while he was here to promote virtual-world ranking. Yu Luocheng instantly felt inferior as a result of their stark contrast.

After a brief moment of introspection and reflection, Yu Luocheng’s eyes suddenly brightened up as if he had just made a new resolution. He solemnly typed in a line of words to motivate himself—”Fourth floor, request for bottom lane!!!”

‘D*mn! I am not going to give up the bottom lane this time. I don’t want to lose another game because of someone’s incompetence.”

“First floor, ban Brand. Second floor on the opposite team is the number three Brand in the national server,” The player with the ID “Seal” reminded.

After the first floor player had banned Brand and two other META 1 champions, the player instantly picked the Sheriff of Piltover.

Caitlyn was no doubt the popular ADC this season. It was not because she was overpowering in this patch, but rather, the other ADCs had been nerfed ridiculously.

Since the ADC role had been taken by the first floor, Yu Luocheng had no other choice but to play the SP role. Yu Luocheng was more than happy to take on that position anyway.

‘After all, I might switch to a carry build halfway, hehe!’

“First floor, which support champion do you prefer? I don’t play passive support,” Yu Luocheng asked.

“Up to you,” The player from the first floor answered.

“Then I will go with Thresh...” Just as he wanted to key in those words, his hands suddenly came to a halt. His eyes stared closely at the ID of the player on the first floor.

‘Shallow Dream!! Isn’t this the charming Caitlyn who tortured my entire team single-handedly in the last game?’

‘We are assigned to the same team this round!’

It was common to encounter the same player in a high-end ranked game. In just a single night, one might bump into the same person three times or more. Sometimes they might be your teammate, and sometimes, they might be the opponent. This was also another reason why you could tell who was in the opponent team easily from the start.

“First floor, your Caitlyn was pretty daunting,” Yu Luocheng greeted with a grievous tone.

“Yea,” Shallow Dream replied coldly.

“Are you a professional ADC? Your playstyle doesn’t look like those of a pub player,” Yu Luocheng continued to question.

Shallow Dream was definitely a brilliant player. At least her Caitlyn was way better than his.

“Just for fun.” It appeared that Shallow Dream was not a talker. All her replies were short and straightforward.

Yu Luocheng’s face darkened.

‘Just for fun? You thought you are me?’

He or she must be an ADC from a Tier 1 professional team unlike what Sitcom had claimed in the last game. There was no other plausible explanation for his or her supremacy in the game otherwise.

However, this time they were both on the same team and were even paired at the bottom lane. Yu Luocheng naturally fancied teaming up with a pro player and he hoped he could cooperate smoothly with Shallow Dream.

The bottom was a dual-champion lane and personal skills could only go so far. They would still lose out if they were unable to work seamlessly with each other.

***

The Caitlyn-Thresh tag team was quite commonly seen at the bottom lane nowadays. An effective combo would be Caitlyn putting a snap trap behind the enemy champion once he or she is caught by Thresh’s Death Sentence. This was usually enough to force the captured enemy to escape with Flash.

“Which team are you in?” Yu Luocheng asked automatically.

To be frank, Yu Luocheng did not think highly of many players. Even the ADC from Team Liaoning in the semifinals of the national stage did not pose much of a threat to him. Yu Luocheng was determined to get an answer since they were now on the same team.

Shallow Dream ignored Yu Luocheng and returned to the lane after she had retrieved the red buff. Yu Luocheng, unhappy with the negligence decided to threaten her. “I am going to feed brainlessly if you don’t tell me.”

Shallow Dream merely continued to CS calmly and did not miss a single minion, her foundation was solid.

“I’m going to start feeding now!!”

“Bottom lane, stop fooling around, be serious.” The jungler tried to defuse the situation.

“But this ADC is ignoring my existence,” Yu Luocheng whined.

“D*mn, are you a 3-year-old kid?”

***

“The opponent jungler is around, fall back.” Yu Luocheng put a signal on the tri-bush.

‘Humph, I know you are there even without having to place a ward!’

Caitlyn retreated quickly after she killed a minion. As usual, she ignored Yu Luocheng’s warning and did not reply to a single word.
