Chapter 129: Ultimate (3)
[50% of HP reduced!]
Beep!
The damage Valkyrie received was so critical that a warning appeared on her screen. Fifty percent of her HP disappeared in one hit, which was unfathomable, especially for a tank.
She screamed in anger, "Fuck this game! Why do I always get a shitty team!"
Her allies fed the enemy Raina as if she were their only child. Raina\'s attack had more than 100 stacks.
"How does Raina have 150 stacks already?!"
Raina needed to have reached at least 150 stacks to achieve great damage.
She glared at the bottom duo behind her and couldn\'t contain her anger, "How many times did you let her hit you!? 150 stacks in 7 minutes? Are you kidding me? Even bots wouldn\'t get hit this much!"
The useless bottom duo were the ADC and support.
[Cuifan - Sorcerer of the Sulfur Swamp]
[Lv.4]
[Paul - The Gunner]
[Lv.4]
Cuifan and Paul opened their mouths, trying to give an excuse, "W-What... we only died twice!"
"It\'s because mid and jungle died to them! We only died before she turned Level 6! So the stacks have nothing to do with us!"
“Sigh.”
Smebu was speechless. This wasn\'t an excuse. It was more like a confession.
"You guys died twice before Level 6? Are you guys inbreds?"
Pung!
Smebu felt a striking pain on the back of her head. It was Raina\'s shots.
\'Huh? Ignoring the turret?\'
Raina was approaching and shooting at them despite their turret being up. Most champions\' range was smaller than a turret\'s, except for Raina\'s during her ultimate. Thanks to Raina\'s help, the mana arrows could fly further.
\'Right, Raina\'s ultimate... her normal attack range grows longer too. It\'s been so long since I\'ve seen her that I almost forgot.\'
Valkyrie decided to block the attacks for now.
Charrrr.
The large wings covered her back to protect the summoner. The sharp blades covered her openings and blocked most of the projectiles.
However—
"!"
Pung!
The arrows continued to hit.
\'What?\'
It came in between the tiny openings in the wings. Raina was aiming at those small openings from far away.
\'I-Is this a bug…?\'
Sometimes in a game, there was a bug where the skills went through the map. The scene resembled just that.
Pububung!
She lost 10% more of her HP. It was a one-sided encounter.
Swoosh!
Another blue light flashed.
Pung!
No matter how she blocked, the arrows found their target.
Pubung!
Now, two arrows came at once. The damage was two, no, three times stronger because Raina was shooting in her summoner\'s pose.
Puung!
[HP is below 40%]
The arrows hit her not only once, but several times this way. Valkyrie had no choice but to admit the skill gap. She felt a wall between them. Valkyrie blanked out for a moment, immobilized. It looked like she was stunned as if a truck was about to run her over.
[What are you doing, Summoner? Aren\'t you going to fly?]
The champion, Valkyrie, couldn\'t hold it in any longer and scolded her summoner.
[You\'re going to use me and lose to that annoying blue girl?]
Smebu came back to her senses.
"Yeah, I\'m in my ultimate!"
She forgot that she was in her ultimate after witnessing Raina\'s skills. She was playing as the most OP tier 1 champion in the game, Valkyrie. When Valkyrie used her ultimate, she turned into a giant with wings of blades attached to her back.
She descended as her legendary icon instead of coming down herself, but that was enough because these wings could do anything. It could defend the summoner, attack, and above all...
Fly.
Flap!
Valkyrie clapped with the back of her hands and activated a Link Skill.
[Flight]
Flap...
The iron wings started to flutter. The summoner would normally be too heavy to carry, yet the wings carried them into the sky.
Witnessing these giant, eerie wings formed with hundreds of blades fluttering in the air like feathers was a sight.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
A large circle formed on the sand beneath them.
Swoosh!
It fluttered once more.
Taaak!
The figure sparked up into the sky.
\'I\'ll show you why Valkyrie is so OP.\'
She flew into the sky, but that wasn\'t all. She moved her fingers and did another Link Movement.
[Hail of Blades]
Charrrr.
The blades in the wings lined themselves up one by one and pointed toward the ground.
***
\'She flies…?\'
Almond was a little taken aback. He didn\'t expect her to fly. This situation was unusual for him, who only played realistic video games.
"Ah, shit. It\'s the flight and hail of blades combo! Let\'s just run... we can push this turret later!"
"Mr. Soldier? I think we should just back off for now. We\'re lucky to have survived Valkyrie\'s OP ultimate, especially with that idiot feeding her..."
Almond could hear his allies screaming in fear to flee. Judging from the situation, he understood because the enemy seemed like a hassle. Hailing blades while in flight?
\'Should I run?\'
He could run if he wanted to, but what was it? He recalled some advice his coach used to tell him.
‘The old tales speak of a legendary archer able to shoot even a bird from the sky.’
Archery skills good enough to hit a bird in the sky. This was a common saying even to those unfamiliar with archery. People didn\'t take it seriously as it was a common idiom.
An archer who could hit a flying bird. This saying was famous because of one reason. It was much more difficult to hit an object mid-flight than on the ground. Since the dawn of archers, the excitement of hitting a flying target had been prevalent.
\'A flying bird...\'
Valkyrie\'s shadow loomed over Almond from the sky.
\'I\'ve never even thought about... shooting something in the sky.\'
Almond imagined shooting something on land multiple times, but never anything flying in the air.
Thump-
His heart thumped loudly.
"Mr. Soldier, hurry! If you die, she gets a lot of gold because of your bounty!" the support kept persisting. "There\'s no point in fighting during her flight and hail of blades!"
He was right. Fleeing was the correct choice. The enemy was in her ultimate form and using her skill, Hail of Blades, which rained down blades. Running away from the rain was the right play.
But why was his heart pounding?
Thump- Thump-
\'I want to shoot.\'
If he fled here, the enemy\'s flight would stop and his excitement would too.
He wanted to shoot while she was in the air. Almond didn\'t want to lose this opportunity. He aimed into the air toward Valkyrie, who looked like a speck of dust.
"M-Mister?!"
"I don\'t want to lose this opportunity."
"Oppor...tunity?"
The support was dumbfounded. What he saw as a danger, Almond saw as an opportunity.
"If you want to run, run."
Almond recalled the first time he stood before a target and readied his blue mana bow.
Bzzzt…!
He couldn’t hear anything else anymore.
Kwang!
With a loud noise, a red text appeared before him.
[Hail of Blades]
\'It\'s coming.\'
Chaarrrr!
The blades started raining down on him. The falling blades covered the sky and fell all at once.
"Dammit! I don\'t know what you\'re talking about, but I\'m going to try blocking it for now!"
The supporter had no choice but to run at Almond and raise his shield.
Chuk!
However, none of the blades landed on the shield. Almond started flicking his bowstring.
As he fired arrows one by one, they grew quicker and quicker. Countless mana arrows were in the air. It looked like the bow was spewing blue flame. Raina\'s bow also fired rapidly beside him. All the arrows started to deflect all the falling blades.
Kang! Kang! Ka-gang!
Countless arrows deflected the countless blades. The clashing of the red blades against the blue arrows created a spark of flames.
Fwoosh!
The sparks rose up higher and higher.
"... What?"
The support couldn\'t believe it. Valkyrie\'s hail of blades was being pushed back!
Kagagagang…!
Countless arrows clashed against countless blades.
— Damn
— What am I even watching right now?
— I\'m going to report this as a bug.
— Wow...
— Jesus Christ
— I gave up trying to understand. I\'m just going to report.
— I\'m going to play Raina today...
The sparks eventually reached the top. The arrows pierced through the blades and one arrow finally struck Valkyrie.
Pung!
An explosion occurred as a blue target was hit. Valkyrie\'s figure, flying majestically, started swaying.
"!"
She looked like a fly losing balance. Even from this distance, Almond could tell she was panicking. Even then, it was difficult to hit her.
Trying to hit a target flying all over the place in this 3D environment was also a new challenge for Almond.
— Damn, that champion is too OP
— Acting up again...
— So annoying...
— Look at her skills! How\'s that allowed?!
— Even if she fucks up, she\'s still OP
‘Valkyrie was OP?’
Almond slowly smiled. If he killed her, he\'d be praised even more.
Creak…?
He made a quick, soft, and motionless full draw and release.
Pang…!
Valkyrie lost her balance and flew in circles.
Pung!
Another merciless arrow struck her as Almond\'s release continued.
Once, twice... five times.
Pung! Pububung!
All five hits perfectly landed on the blue targets appearing on her.
"T-Teacher! What is your identity?!"
The top laner kneeled on his own. At the same time, Valkyrie fell to the ground.
Thud!
[LazySoldier is legendary!]
[LazySoldier -> Smebu]
Legendary, it was the biggest compliment he could receive in the game.
— Look at the top groveling, LOL
— LOL. We\'ll give you a pass, top.
— Wow... I can\'t believe I was able to witness this LIVE. My Life is Legend...
— Almond is legendary! Almond is legendary! Almond is legendary!
— It\'s so dumb, but it works because he\'s so good
— How can you just deflect them all... you\'re not supposed to do that...
— I\'m actually going to report him. This HAS to be a bug.
— Game knowledge: 0, mechanics: 100, game: victory. Any complaints?
Almond\'s account was Level 1, but he was legendary in this match. From this point on, the game took a pivotal turn.
***
Afterward, Almond couldn\'t figure out what was happening.
‘It\'s good to kill the epic monster now.’
‘Now let\'s go mid and push it out.’
‘Be careful. It\'s the two turrets defending the enemy nexus.’
He just followed around and listened to the support\'s advice. The game was almost over.
"The end is near!"
"Wow... can\'t believe we\'re going to win this. Hahaha."
Crumble…?
The last two turrets guarding the enemy nexus crumbled as well.
‘Now, if we just break the nexus, we\'ll win!’
Almond was about to achieve his first victory. A smile started to form on his face.
[First victory]
[350,000 won]
The mission reward was large as well.
— Kya, a no-death victory in the first game... Is this talent?
— Bubblegum: At least I\'m better than Almond at LIL!
— Poor Bubblegum…
— Gummy…
Baaam!
A trumpet noise that hadn’t been heard in a while resounded.
[IUrFather has donated a whopping 700,000 won!]
[Wow, Almond! ^^ I love watching your streams! It\'s my payday and you got your first victory as well. Congratulations!]
700,000 won. Combined with the mission reward, it was a total of 1.05 million won. If a large donation like this happened, Almond couldn\'t just let it slide.
"Wow! IUrFather, thank you very much!"
The viewers were shaken in fear of his excited voice.
— A no-death victory? Impossible. Kill him with the donations!
— Don\'t end the stream!
— Stop the stream from ending!
— Wait... this amount is...
— Almond... the only thing that can kill you is donations.
— Almond\'s suicide ending? Amazing.
— But how\'s he going to kill himself in LIL?
— I wonder how he\'s going to die this time…
Their fear was confirmed. Almond was thinking the same thing.
\'But this arrow disappears mid-air...\'
He was trying to figure out how to have the arrow land on his head. It was the hardest Almond thought since the game began. While thinking, he glanced at his stacks.
[Pride of an Archer x 114]
"Oh ho."
Almond\'s eyes looked eager.
[W-What are you trying to do?] Raina asked him after catching on.
Almond summoned her.
[Ultimate - Evil Archer]
