Chapter 680

~6 min read 1,172 words

Guan Zeyuan's loud shout diverted everyone's attention to the battle in the lower‑right corner window that the director cut to.

「After the ignite time ended, Y4 gave a little heal, bringing Xiaohu's health back to a relatively safe state! Xiaohu created distance and then fired a big missile that blasted the three Dragon Pearl players for massive AoE damage! 」

「On this side of the small window, after Khan's teleport was interrupted he got angry, broke free from the taunt instantly, and with a reverse EQ knock‑up also interrupted Shen's ultimate teleport! 」

But Letme didn't get tangled with him, he just dropped another teleport onto the ward his teammate had placed! You could interrupt one, but you didn't expect that, huh! I still have teleport!

Ah?!

Hahaha~~~

After Letme's ultimate teleport effect was interrupted, without hesitation he immediately followed up with another summoner teleport, while Khan, having lost his crowd control ability, could only auto-attack him, causing the crowd to erupt in huge laughter.

It's a long story, but this scene was indeed hilarious, causing the LPL folks in the backstage lounge to burst into laughter nonstop.

Guan Zeyuan continued his teamfight solo:

"Khan's EQ has already been used; although the cooldown is short, it's still six or seven seconds and he can't interrupt again! He can only watch helplessly as Letme flies away!"

"Although Letme also lacks a taunt skill, his ultimate protected Xiaohu, and after he landed he became a thick wall!"

"Moreover he built Giant Slayer! This is a spiked wall! With the teleport down he casually slashed and killed Cuzz's spider, already low health from the plane's barrage! GorillA Bu Long raised his shield to block Letme's face, trying to stop his Hydra passive, but Letme pulled his sword aside and slashed twice, then cleaved the Hydra directly, killing it! Letme scored a double kill!"

"Wow, Letme snatched that kill so smoothly!"

Although the plane was also low health, Dragon Pearl used up too many skills when initiating the teamfight, so in a short time nobody could reach the plane; therefore no matter how low the plane's health, its output wouldn't be reduced at all due to low health.

Dragon Pearl's mid-game main damage and frontline player Khan's Prince, however, missed the teamfight because his teleport was interrupted.

It was already a 4v5, and then two more key players fell!

The outcome of this teamfight was already without suspense.

In the end only BDD's Clockwork remained, escaping alone—plus Khan who couldn't come down, making two.

Meanwhile, RNG didn't lose a single member!

What's worse, Khan even wanted to destroy an RNG tower to vent his frustration but couldn't, because the situation in the Shang Ban Qu was already settled, with only BDD left unable to stop RNG from taking Baron; therefore Xiaohu, after finishing the teamfight, immediately returned to base to heal and then teleported to Xia Lu, perfectly meeting the minion wave that Khan had pushed up to the tower— the minions ahead had already been cleared by the turret.

This is a plane with three items at 27 minutes.

A Prince with only two items and no ultimate, upon seeing him could only run, not daring to use his edge lightly.

RNG easily took Baron Nashor.

As the gold gap broke through the 8,000 mark, the match completely lost its suspense.

At 32 minutes, RNG again won a teamfight decisively, then pushed forward and flattened Dragon Pearl's base.

"Congratulations RNG!!!"

"Congratulations RNG! On this inter-regional final stage! Securing a precious first point for LPL!"

"RNG is so cool!!!"

LPL casters exclaimed in surprise.

But their faces couldn't be seen, as dense barrage after barrage piled up on the live broadcast screen.

【RNG is awesome!】

【I misjudged, from now on I won't badmouth RNG!】

【Who would have thought they could beat LCK's First Seed, so cool!】

【Those saying Jiao Shen misjudged the person, come forward! Loudly tell me, is Letme okay or not!】

【Letme really was key this game; that Baron teamfight directly rewrote the ending!】

【RNG is awesome, Jiao Shen is even more awesome!】

【To be honest, this match raised letme's value by at least several hundred thousand, possibly even a million……】

A million is a bit exaggerated, but several hundred thousand is plausible, after all letme's biggest flaw criticized by people is being unable to hold up in crucial moments, but today he made up for that shortcoming.

Assuming RNG advances to the S7 World Championships, if letme doesn't make too big mistakes when laning against top laners, raising his salary by several hundred thousand is absolutely no problem.

Getting back to the match, the live audience was enthusiastic, many cheered for RNG, and the live LMS commentary echoing in the arena was also full of surprise.

"Really now?! RNG actually drove the Dragon Pearl past?! Too divine!"

"Yeah, it's fake! This makes LCK's side have a big problem, my older brother hasn't even come out yet, just a younger brother showing up killed your region's big boss—how are we supposed to fight next? Should we call Faker to get out of bed? No matter how we line up, it feels hard; this unexpected result really gives LCK a tough problem!"

"Laughing to death, the Dragon Pearl isn't the LCK champion? How come upon touching LPL it got beaten like this, I feel Khan's whole face turned green!"

……

Backstage.

Dragon Pearl's members returned to the lounge with heads down and spirits low; upon entering, no one cheered for them, only stern and complex gazes greeted them.

The atmosphere in the LCK region is actually quite similar to the LPL's; during internal strife each wishes the other team would disband, but in this kind of match representing regional honor they are unusually united.

Although no one blamed Dragon Pearl's members, the atmosphere in the lounge was something everyone could feel.

However, it was only the Dragon Pearl members whose morale was a bit low; others were not affected much.

To the members of the other three teams, Dragon Pearl's loss to RNG was just a fluke, not indicating that LPL's strength is truly so strong that any random team pulled out would beat an LCK team.

The match is far from over; LCK only lost one game point, the outcome of this Bo5 still holds great suspense, which is the confidence LCK has built from years of excellent results in international tournaments.

As one of the LCK team's spokespersons, Kkoma spoke up to ease the atmosphere:

"Everyone needn't be nervous; although losing the first game puts us at a disadvantage, in terms of overall team strength we are stronger than them. What we most need to consider next is how to handle VG this point; as long as we settle them, the other two teams need not be worried."

"Based on our meeting last night, it's obvious that in the second game LPL is highly likely to send out VG. So let's discuss now: second game, who will go up?"

"How about we go up then?"
