Chapter 723
Directly Takes Chuan
Ten minutes later, Su Mo returned to the city.
He drew the Blade of the Ruined King!
The combination of Blade of the Ruined King and attack speed boots at just over ten minutes in is devastating in terms of damage output.
Back on the lane, Su Mo wasn't content with just taking down the first tower. He pushed the lane across the river, then turned and plunged into BLG's upper jungle.
Toads, three wolves, and even the newly refreshed red buff.
Wherever Su Mo passed, the monsters were completely looted. When Xun's monkey returned to the upper half of the map, it looked at the empty monster camp and fell into deep confusion, its level starting to be overtaken by A Chen's Sejuani.
The game lasts twelve minutes.
BLG has finally found an opportunity.
When Xiaoyue's Syndra was clearing the mid lane, she positioned herself slightly forward. Knight's Sylas decisively used his E skill [Escape/Kidnap] to close the distance, and at the same time used the stolen Sejuani ultimate [Frozen Prison] to accurately freeze Syndra in place.
The monkey lurking on the flank immediately activated its W ability to become invisible and followed up. With Sylas's burst damage, it successfully killed Syndra and managed to regain some momentum.
"Nice! That was a good kill!" BLG's morale improved slightly in the voice chat.
"Get ready to take the second dragon. We have lane priority in the mid and bottom lanes, so we can go for it!" Xun commanded.
At 13 and a half minutes, the second Hextech Dragon will spawn.
BLG's five players grouped up early and secured vision around the dragon pit. They knew that if they couldn't contain the incredibly fed Kalista in team fights, the game would remain a lost cause.
"When the fight starts, I'll flash and use my ultimate on that Kalista!" Xun said through gritted teeth in the voice chat. "Thresh, get ready to give the lantern. Bin, you TP in from the side to flank!"
Fourteen minutes later, the dragon spawned.
The EDG team gathered in the river. Achen's Sejuani was at the forefront, followed closely by Vamp's Ryze and Leave's Xayah.
Su Mo's Kalista hovered on the flanks of the formation, clutching Blade of the Ruined King and Berserker's Greaves, leaping lightly with every step. Because Su Mo had purchased a Black Spear at the start of the game, he had bound his contract to Chen's Sejuani.
"EDG is about to engage! But BLG's formation is excellent, and Sylas still has Riven's ultimate ready!" Miller spoke rapidly, his eyes glued to the screen. "If Wukong can engage Kalista, BLG has a chance to win this team fight!"
Just then, ON's Thresh hooked out from the shadows!
With a "crack," the hook struck Sejuani, who was trying to scout the area!
"Move to the front! Forget Sejuani, watch where Kalista is!" Knight shouted.
A team fight erupted instantly!
Xun's monkey immediately used Flash, then used his E skill to smash Kalista behind the crowd, while simultaneously activating his ultimate, "Havoc in Heaven"! His staff flashed, attempting to send Su Mo flying high into the air!
However, Su Mo's reaction speed completely exceeded human limits.
In the fraction of a second that the monkey used Flash, Su Mo clicked his mouse slightly backward.
Instead of retreating, Kalista used a basic attack on the river crab to her side, and then, using her passive martial arts stance, she slid and leaped diagonally backward in a very strange way!
The edge of the monkey's ultimate skill almost grazed Kalista's cloak, but it completely missed!
"He dodged it!! The monkey's Flash ultimate was slid away by the skateboard shoes!!" Guan Zeyuan shouted.
Before the BLG members could react, Su Mo pressed the R key – [Call of Destiny]!
Sejuani, who was hooked by Thresh and was being focused down by BLG, instantly turned into a ghostly green soul and was forcibly pulled back to Kalista's side. Not only was she saved, but she also became an invincible weapon!
"Ah Chen, smash Silas." Su Mo's voice was calm.
"Received, Brother Mo!"
The next second, the soul projectile that Achen transformed into shot out from Kalista's hand and slammed into Sylas and Aphelios, who were preparing to enter the fray to deal damage!
"boom!"
The massive knockback effect instantly sent BLG's two carries flying into the air!
"Perfect teamwork! Kalista's ultimate not only saved the jungler but also countered the team fight!!" Rita stood up excitedly in the commentary booth.
At the same time, Vamp's Ryle also activated her ultimate ability and entered the fray, completely disrupting BLG's formation.
Su Mo's Kalista, like a ruthless reaping machine, officially took over the battlefield.
Basic attack, jump!
Q skill: Pierce, Leap!
The passive effect of Blade of Ruin, combined with the triggering of Lethal Tempo, allows Kalista to reach a terrifying attack speed threshold.
In the video, all you can see is the eerie green marksman frantically sliding along the edge of the battlefield, leaving a trail of afterimages. Every basic attack lands precisely on the monkey and Sylas.
Bin's Jax had just used Teleport to land and activated Counter Strike, attempting to Flash and stun Su Mo.
But Su Mo didn't give him a chance at all.
The instant Jax used Flash, Su Mo used Healing Spell to accelerate, and then performed two blurry backward slides, causing Jax's stun to miss again!
He then turned around and unleashed a barrage of spears upon Jax.
"die."
A single, soft word escaped Su Mo's lips.
Press E skill [Tear]!
"laugh--"
A chilling sound rang out, and the monkey and Jax, whose bodies were covered with more than a dozen spears, had their health bars instantly depleted and collapsed on the spot!
"Double Kill!"
BLG completely collapsed after losing their top laner. Knight's Sylas managed to escape with Flash, but Aphelios was caught by Leave's Xayah's hook and ultimately taken down by Su Mo's long-range Q skill.
"Triple Kill!"
Fifteen minutes.
As the announcement of the triple kill echoed through the Rift, EDG not only won the team fight that sealed the victory, but also secured the second dragon.
Su Mo controlled Kalista to walk to the edge of the dragon pit, without even participating in the dragon fight. He picked up the thermos on the corner of the table, slowly took a sip of warm water, and his cold face remained calm as if he had just completed a trivial last hit.
Meanwhile, BLG on the other side was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
This team fight, which lasted fifteen minutes, completely destroyed BLG's defenses.
With a triple kill bounty and the Rift Herald pushing forward, Su Mo's Kalista went back to base and immediately bought her second core item—Runaan's Hurricane Split Bow.
In the commentary booth, Miller looked at Kalista's exaggerated equipment panel and couldn't help but gasp: "Fifteen and a half minutes, Blade of the Ruined King, Runaan's Hurricane, and Berserker's Greaves. This equipment isn't just leading the timeline, it's directly accelerating the game to twenty-five minutes! With Runaan's Hurricane, Kalista not only clears waves extremely fast, but her speed in team fights stacking spears on multiple targets is outrageous."
Guan Zeyuan chimed in, "And what's most terrifying is Mozi's performance. In that dragon fight just now, facing the double dash of Wukong's flash ultimate and Jax's flash E, he managed to avoid being hit by any fatal crowd control thanks to his extreme reaction and sliding. This kind of micro-management is simply challenging the physiological limits of human beings." In the match room, BLG's voice chat fell into a deathly silence.
Bin stared at the pitiful scattered [Divine Separator] items in his inventory and rubbed his temples hard. Fifteen minutes in, his Jax only had ninety CS, a full three levels behind. For a dueling champion who heavily relies on farming and items, this was tantamount to a death sentence.
"I can't play anymore. These skateboard shoes are so slippery, I can't even touch them." Bin's voice was filled with a deep sense of helplessness.
Xun sighed, then forced a smile and commanded, "Don't rush, our lineup can still fight in the late game. Let Aphelios farm, we'll avoid fights, and give up all the resources in the top half of the map. Bin, go to the bottom lane and push, don't die. We'll establish defensive vision around the bottom half of the map."
However, BLG's tactical retreat played right into Su Mo's hands.
"Chen, go control their top half of the map. Yue, stick close to the duo and push the mid lane tower." Su Mo gave instructions methodically in the voice chat, his voice calm and even. "Don't worry about me, I'll carry the top lane."
Sixteen minutes.
Su Mo led a large wave of cannon minions to the top lane high ground tower of BLG.
BLG's commander hesitated for a moment. If they sent someone to defend, they would be outnumbered on the front line, and the mid-lane tower would inevitably fall; if they didn't defend, this incredibly fed Kalista could demolish towers at an alarming rate, and the high ground might be lost.
"I'll defend him! You guys defend the mid lane!" Knight gritted his teeth, controlled Sylas to recall, and prepared to defend the top lane high ground.
Sylas is a champion who not only has mobility but can also steal ultimate abilities, resulting in extremely high burst damage. Knight is confident that with his current items, even if he can't win a fight, he can still clear minion waves under the tower without any problems.
Sixteen minutes and forty seconds.
Sylas appeared under the top lane inhibitor turret.
Su Mo looked at Silas below the tower, his eyes calm as still water.
"A delivery arrived."
He casually mentioned something in the voice message, and then something chilling happened.
Su Mo completely ignored the turret's aggro, crossed the minion wave, and started "kiting" at the edge of the turret's attack range!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The eerie green spears rained down on Sylas like a storm!
Knight was shocked and immediately used his E skill [Escape/Abduction] to try to create distance, while simultaneously attempting to counterattack with the second part of his E skill.
But Su Mo's sliding rhythm was too perfect. Every auto-attack's recovery animation was canceled out by a smooth movement, and Kalista was like an elegant dancer, shuttling back and forth between the turret's laser beams and Sylas's skills.
Sylas's second E grazed Kalista's clothes, failing to control her and instead exposing himself to deadly range.
Su Mo took two hits from the high ground tower, losing half his health, but Sylas was already riddled with more than a dozen spears.
"die."
With a single, understated word, Su Mo pressed his E skill, [Tear]!
"laugh--"
Sylas, who was at full health, had his health bar instantly depleted and died on the spot under his own defensive turret!
"EDG.Mo solo-killed BLG.Knight!"
"Holy crap!!! A tower dive kill!!!" Zz1tai jumped up on the commentary stage, clutching his head in his hands. "Sixteen minutes! An ADC! Under the top lane inhibitor turret, tanking the turret's damage, he single-handedly killed a full-health mid-lane mage assassin!!! Is he even human?!"
"That's outrageous! His damage calculation and kiting ability are simply breathtaking!" Guan Zeyuan shouted hoarsely. "Brother Mozi didn't even use a heal! He just used basic attacks and sliding steps to completely outplay Knight!"
Seventeen minutes.
With Sylas's death, BLG's top lane inhibitor tower collapsed, and the inhibitor crystal was destroyed as well.
"Top lane cleared! Seventeen minutes in, BLG's high ground crystal was destroyed!" Miller shook his head repeatedly as he looked at the economic panel shown in the broadcast. "The economic difference has reached 10,000. This game is no longer in doubt."
With the high ground breached, super minions poured into BLG's base in droves.
EDG displayed a very ruthless operational rhythm, giving BLG no chance to breathe.
At 18 minutes, EDG's five players gathered in BLG's lower jungle and, taking advantage of their vision, easily secured the third dragon (Hextech Dragon).
Nineteen minutes.
EDG's entire team returned to base to replenish supplies, and with the absolute advantage of the Baron buff, the five players gathered in the mid lane.
At this point, Su Mo's equipment had been upgraded to Blade of the Ruined King, Split Bow, Immortal Shieldbearer, plus a B.F. Sword and a pair of attack speed boots. This equipment set was devastating at this stage of the game.
He walked at the very front of the group, like an invincible god, his steps light yet carrying a despairing sense of oppression.
"Push forward, don't give them a chance." Su Mo's voice rang out in the voice chat, calm and firm.
EDG's five players, along with the super minions in the mid and top lanes, surged towards BLG's last mid-lane high ground.
BLG's five players retreated to the base of the turret, engaging in a final, desperate struggle.
Nineteen minutes and twenty seconds.
EDG's five players, along with the super minions in the mid and top lanes, surged towards BLG's last two inhibitor turrets.
At this point, BLG's economy was 11,000 gold behind, almost a hopeless abyss.
"Advance, one wave is done." Su Mo's voice remained calm in the voice chat, as if he were simply pressing a normal confirmation button.
Faced with EDG's overwhelming force, BLG's five players retreated to the base of the inhibitor turret.
"We can't retreat! Retreating means losing!" Xun's eyes were bloodshot and his voice was hoarse in the voice chat. "Kill their AD carry! Kill their two carries and we can survive!"
The moment the super minion stepped into the turret's firing range, BLG launched a desperate and fierce fight!
Knight's Sylas, while recalling to defend, still had the stolen Riven ultimate [Helpless Acquisition] in his hand. Without any hesitation, he used Flash and activated the stopwatch before Zhonya's Hourglass, crashing headlong into the very center of EDG's team!
"Sylas has entered the fray!! Knight is initiating the team fight with his life on the line!!"
The magnetic storm of [hostile takeover] spread instantly, pulling away Leave (Kasumi), Vamp (Rui'er), and Chen's Sejuani, who were positioned relatively close together!
Immediately afterwards, ON's Thresh decisively used Flash, and his E skill [Pendulum of Doom] interrupted the three of them again. His ultimate skill [Ghost Prison] followed, forming a terrifying chain of control!
But the truly fatal flaw was BLG's ADC – Elk's Aphelios.
He was holding the Mirror of Deflection (white blade) and the Soul Severancer (red blade) in his hands at the moment. This was Aphelios' ultimate weapon combination with the highest burst damage in melee combat and the most terrifying life steal!
"For the glory of the all-Chinese team!!!" Elk roared in the voice chat, then flashed to the enemy's face and unleashed his ultimate skill [Moonlight Gathering], slamming it into the three controlled enemies!
Countless flying wheels spun wildly around Aphelios, transforming him into a melee meat grinder, unleashing a torrent of damage like mercury spilling out!
"The damage is too high!! Elk's white blade damage is incomprehensible!! Xayah was instantly killed before she could even use her ultimate!! Riel is down too!!" Miller, in the commentary booth, held his head and roared in disbelief. (End of Chapter)
