At this time, Darius was a pure kill-stealer.
(Actually, I forgot the exact time of the rework, so just treat this as his most overpowered patch.)
Old Kuai's wails hadn't even ended before bad news came from the mid lane.
"Ah! He's here! He's here! He's coming to the mid lane with his axe! I don't have Flash! I don't have K..."
Guzimiao's Ryze didn't even get to finish his sentence before Darius, catching up with Ghost, took him out with a single strike of his axe.
Another crisp "crack" echoed out.
Kill +1.
Ultimate, refreshed once again.
However, Darius left heading towards the mid lane.
The two streamers in the bottom lane saw Darius heading back towards the mid lane on the map and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After chopping down those three, he can't come chop us now.
Right at this moment, the enemy Ashe suddenly started playing aggressively.
This was extremely, incredibly suspicious.
But they still went up to trade health.
They couldn't just back down.
But right then, a Darius appeared behind them out of nowhere.
Seeing Darius sprinting madly towards them, the two bot lane streamers were scared out of their wits. They decisively abandoned the minion wave and shrank back behind their tower.
But they forgot that there were two other people in the bottom lane.
Taric directly activated his ultimate and charged into the tower to draw aggro.
Darius tanked the damage and charged straight under the tower.
Apprehend!
Crippling Strike!
Decimate!
Noxian Guillotine!
Double Dunk!
Pseudo-Pentakill! Achieved!
From the top lane, to the jungle, to the mid lane, and then to the bottom lane.
Killing gods and buddhas alike if they stood in his way.
The entire Summoner's Rift seemed to have become Lin Mo's personal slaughterhouse.
In Guzimiao's streaming channel, the chat had gone completely crazy.
[??????]
[What did I just watch? Trekking all this way just to chop you? Chopping from top lane all the way to bot lane?]
[This is insane! Does he think this is the path from the South Heaven Gate to Penglai East Road? Just chopping his way through!]
[This guy even deliberately took a detour, playing pure mind games!]
[Streamer Team: We're getting serious. Darius: Oh, and then?]
With a massive economic advantage, Lin Mo's Darius directly completed his second core item.
Facing a soft persimmon like Malphite, as long as he didn't constantly obsess over freezing the wave, pushing and roaming was the right way to play.
Lin Mo didn't hog all the kills either; he would generally pass them over to his teammates.
In this match, the Streamer Team's experience was far from good.
But it wasn't completely terrible either.
Lin Mo's Darius was like a mobile god of war, split-pushing in the top lane, completely unstoppable.
The key was that this god of war hadn't died a single time from start to finish, and his bounty was terrifyingly high.
"This won't do, we have to make a play!"
Guzimiao watched their top lane tier 2 tower's health drop rapidly and felt extremely anxious. "Let's rush mid! While Darius is far away, we'll burst down those four first. It's a 5v4, there's no reason we can't win!"
His voice carried a desperate, do-or-die resolve.
The others didn't say a word, silently agreeing.
If they didn't risk it on this play and waited for Darius to push through all three lanes, they would die anyway.
By risking it, there might still be a glimmer of hope.
Their eyes unanimously turned to the minimap. That Darius icon, showing off in the top lane, was separated from the mid lane by half a jungle.
Walking over? It would take at least thirty seconds.
That was enough!
"I'm going in! Watch my position!"
In the team voice chat, Shiba's voice was rough and powerful, revealing a sense of solitary courage.
Shiba's Malphite was hiding in the shadows of the bottom lane tri-brush, and the figures of Lucian and Thresh appeared in his vision.
Now was the time!
"Crash!"
Accompanied by a furious roar, Malphite transformed into an unstoppable force, blasting towards his targets.
However, in that hair-raising moment.
A flash of golden light gleamed, and the support Thresh shifted laterally by hundreds of units out of thin air.
And that Lucian, even more elegantly, slid to the side, using his E as smoothly as flowing water.
The 18-year-old's reaction speed was absurdly fast.
Shiba's ultimate crashed squarely onto empty ground, only kicking up a useless cloud of dust.
He whiffed his ult!
The entire team's voice chat fell dead silent in an instant.
Immediately following that, Lucian mercilessly unleashed a rain of bullets from his twin guns, which, combined with his teammates' abilities, were all dumped onto Malphite.
"Bang bang bang!"
The Culling washed his face, dealing explosive damage.
Shiba's health bar instantly evaporated. He only had time to burn his Flash, fleeing backward in a pathetic state.
A perfect initiation had turned into the beginning of a rout in the blink of an eye.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat! Kite back a bit!"
"We can't retreat!" Guzimiao practically roared. "The enemy used all their abilities! If we back off now, we lose everything! We have to chase! Fight to the end!"
Before he even finished speaking, an even more scalp-numbing piece of news exploded in the voice channel.
The jungler Old Kuai's voice trembled: "Darius... Darius is missing! He's heading towards us!"
On the map, the icon that had been occupying the top lane for ages disappeared into the fog of war.
On the other side, Fang Jun's commands were clear and calm, completely unaffected by the chaotic battlefield.
"Hao Qiang! Don't worry about whether they run or not! Keep them here! Your Thresh, it all comes down to this move!"
"Understood!"
Hao Qiang didn't hesitate in the slightest.
His Thresh boldly flashed right into the center of the enemy formation.
Green light flared brightly as "The Box" erupted from the ground, its five ghastly green walls instantly trapping the enemies inside.
A reverse "Flay"!
The chain in Thresh's hand swung violently, forcefully sweeping the few people trying to retreat right back into the walls of the prison.
Slowed! A massive slow!
Immediately after, without pausing for a moment, he whipped out his scythe chain with a howl, aiming straight for the enemy's core damage dealer—Ryze.
The old version of Ryze was very violent; when he popped his ultimate, he gained extra ability power and spell vamp, and his abilities even had an AoE splash effect.
But now, accurately hit by this hook, Ryze was nailed to the spot, unable to move.
"Ah——!"
Right at this moment, a shrill scream came from the rear.
It was Shiba's voice!
Guzimiao's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly turned around.
At the edge of his vision, a figure burning with blood-red rage, carrying a massive battle axe, was charging over in great strides with Ghost activated.
Darius!
He was here!
Guzimiao only saw a flash of red before his eyes as that terrifying figure pressed right up to his face. A "Crippling Strike" landed, and the Hemorrhage symbol instantly lit up above his head.
It's over.
This was his last thought.
The next second, a giant axe descended from the sky, cleaving down viciously.
Brains bashed in!
Except he was hit by Thresh's Q, meaning he couldn't move at all.
"Ah!"
In the distance came Shiba's screams.
Guzimiao looked over, only to see a blood-enraged Darius already charging towards him.
The remaining scene was him being hit by a Crippling Strike, getting stacked with Hemorrhage, and then getting his head chopped open.
Guzimiao's screen turned gray.
Immediately after, the fleeing Xin Zhao was yanked back by an "Apprehend" and similarly taken out with a single axe strike.
The bot lane duo had nowhere to run; they were slowed and turned into mere tools for Darius to refresh his ultimate.
Double Kill!
Triple Kill!
Quadra Kill!
Pentakill!
The cold female voice of the system rang out in rapid succession, as if composing the final movement for this massacre.
Aced!
The streamer team was crushed once again.
"Push!"
"Let's end it in one wave!"
The remaining players on Lin Mo's side, leading the minion wave, surged mightily toward the enemy's Nexus.
A few seconds later, Guzimiao and his teammates had just respawned in the fountain.
All they could do was watch helplessly as their base Nexus shattered under the fierce barrage of attacks.
In the center of the screen, a bright red word slowly emerged.
Defeat.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
