Chapter 44 - Chapter 157: Treasure Chest Battle

The first Treasure Chest Battle officially began.

Unlike the usual ranked matches where players pick heroes from the 1st to 5th floor on the left and right sides, in this Treasure Chest Battle, three queues for the Red, Yellow, and Blue teams appeared on the left, bottom, and right sides of the match room respectively, while the center was a fully open hero pool.

After the 10-second countdown ended, everyone would choose their heroes simultaneously. Heroes picked by others could not be selected again, so it was all about hand speed at this moment.

Ye Shaoyang watched the 10-second progress bar, and the moment it ended, he quickly locked in the hero [Abyssal Lord]; Xie Weiyu locked in [Wind Elf], Xie Yuan took [Blood Kin Princess], Zhao Xin'an took [Vampire Duke], and Chen Qianhua took the tank support [Shield of Glory].

Their Red Team had discussed the lineup in advance, and the 5 of them snatched their heroes with flying hand speeds.

They pressed confirm almost within 1 second.

This lineup was very comprehensive, with a tank, warrior, mage, and marksman, capable of both tanking and dealing damage, combining offense and defense.

On the Blue Team's side, Chi Shuo instantly locked [Stealth Rogue], Yan Yan took [Ninja], and Captain Liu Luo of Luoshendian took [Charm Demon]. Fang Zhengqing took his signature hero [Cobra King], and Zhao Xinping took a warrior, [Rose's Edge].

Their lineup was overall squishy, without even a single frontline tank. However, the three assassins had extremely strong burst power, playing a rhythm of insta-killing whoever they glared at. Assassins generally had multiple displacement skills, making them very suitable for ambush attacks and guerrilla warfare.

On the Yellow Team's side, Qu Jiang took the healing support [Forest Messenger], Li Yunmo took the protective support [Light of Blessing], Sean took [Dark Witch], Xu Zhuo [Kung Fu Master], and Zhou Jiawen [Frost Goddess].

After the three lineups were selected, the master analysts in the bullet screen area began to quickly guess the result—

[I think the Red Team has a high chance of winning; their lineup is very comprehensive!]

[This isn't tower pushing mode. For snatching treasure chests, the Blue Team should be better, right? Three assassins kill someone, grab the chest, and run; you can't even catch them!]

[I actually think the Yellow Team is better. With a healer and Light of Blessing's protection, a pure team fight lineup with strong sustain, the 5 of them can stick together all the time.]

After seeing such a lineup, Ye Shaoyang immediately said in the voice channel: "Avoid engaging the Yellow Team head-on first. The opponent has healing and shields; we won't be able to kill them even after fighting for ages."

Chen Qianhua said: "One shield, one healer; indeed too tanky."

Zhao Xin'an couldn't help complaining: "The Blue Team is pure squishy, but they can turn invisible! We need to guard against assassins flanking from behind."

Ye Shaoyang said: "Later, each of us should only take one treasure chest, don't take more. Whoever takes more treasure chests will become the target of public criticism."

In this kind of battle, carrying four or five treasure chests on you was equivalent to writing a line on your forehead: "I'm very fat, come kill me quickly." It was better to develop low-key in the early stage, and then unexpectedly wipe out a team in the late stage; snatching their treasure chests would lead to victory.

The gun hits the bird that pokes its head out; Ye Shaoyang didn't want to be that "bird."

The match started quickly. The map loaded, and the 15 players spawned at the Red, Yellow, and Blue resurrection points according to their respective groups, which happened to be the three vertices of the triangular map.

According to the game rules, 5 treasure chests would randomly refresh on the map every minute, and killing jungle monsters would drop a fixed 5 treasure chests. Randomly refreshed chests depended on luck, but the chests dropped by wild monsters were fixed.

When the rules were introduced just now, the big screen showed the entire map structure and wild monster distribution from a God's eye view. Not far in front of the Red, Yellow, and Blue spawn points, there was a wild monster similar to the Baron for each.

Ye Shaoyang said: "Kill the Baron at our own doorstep first."

The pace of the Treasure Chest Battle was very fast. At the start, everyone automatically leveled up to 6, directly learning their ultimate skills, and automatically obtained 1000 gold. Everyone quickly bought equipment and headed to the Red area's Baron. Chen Qianhua's [Shield of Glory] tanked damage in front, while the two marksmen output damage frantically. Ye Shaoyang hid in the nearby grass to observe movements.

The Baron was quickly killed, dropping 5 glittering golden treasure chests on the ground.

Ye Shaoyang said: "Everyone take 1."

The 5 people quickly picked up the treasure chests.

Immediately after, information popped up on the big screen, which was the real-time updated treasure chest ranking.

[Treasure Chest Ranking]

Blue Team – Stealth Rogue × 5

Yellow Team – Light of Blessing × 2

Yellow Team – Forest Messenger × 3

Red Team – Abyssal Lord × 1

Red Team – Wind Elf × 1

The three teams had different strategies.

The Red Team distributed the treasure chests, with everyone taking 1, so even if someone died, the loss wouldn't be too great.

The Yellow Team had the supports take 2 and 3 chests respectively. One support was a healer and the other had shields; they were very hard to kill. As long as they protected the chests, they would win in the end.

As for the Blue Team, all the treasure chests were concentrated on one person.

Seeing this, Yao Mu couldn't help but say: "The Blue Team's approach is very extreme! The 5 treasure chests from the first wave of wild monster kills were all taken by Shuoyue's [Stealth Rogue]. Once he dies, won't all the chests drop?"

Brother Dong smiled: "They say don't put all your eggs in one basket; if the basket breaks, all the eggs break. But there is another situation where putting eggs in one basket is safer… For example, if the basket can turn invisible?"

Hearing this analogy, Yao Mu couldn't help laughing: "Makes sense. Stealth Rogue can stay invisible for a long time. Running away invisible with the treasure chests, others won't be able to find him."

At this moment, Chi Shuo was roaming the entire map with 5 treasure chests.

Viewers with the God's eye perspective noticed that he first roamed to the Red Team's side, took a look from afar, and then went to the Yellow Team to observe the situation. Along the way, encountering randomly dropped treasure chests, Chi Shuo picked up two casually. Thus, on the treasure chest ranking, Chi Shuo's [Stealth Rogue] topped the list with 7 chests.

Ye Shaoyang said: "Find Chi Shuo, kill him, and these 7 treasure chests are ours."

At the same time, the Yellow Team's Xu Zhuo also said: "Acting like a BOSS right from the start, really bold. Let's go find Chi Shuo."

So, both the Yellow Team and Red Team searched for Chi Shuo on the map simultaneously.

In the end, they didn't find where Chi Shuo was, but the two sides met in the jungle first.

Ye Shaoyang: "…"

Xu Zhuo: "…"

To fight or not to fight?

Currently, both the Red Team and Yellow Team had 5 treasure chests. Fighting wouldn't determine a winner immediately. If the Blue Team watched the tigers fight from the mountain and came over to reap the low-health players with their many assassins, they would suffer a huge loss.

So Ye Shaoyang took the initiative to step back, and Xu Zhuo also stepped back. The meaning was obvious: Let's not fight first; the Blue Team is the real BOSS.

Meeting in the jungle, the two sides greeted each other and continued searching in different directions.

The two commentators laughed: "The Yellow Team and Red Team seem to have reached some consensus and didn't start a fight."

"After all, the Blue Team has three assassins. If they fight and get reaped by the Blue Team, it would be a loss."

Meanwhile, the Blue Team was rapidly collecting treasure chests.

Chi Shuo had 7 chests on him, and A'Yan's [Ninja] also found 2 chests. In other words, all 5 randomly dropped chests in the first minute were found by the Blue Team.

Yao Mu said: "The Blue Team has good luck. The first wave of chests refreshed near them, giving them a big advantage at the start, with a total of 10 chests obtained; Red and Yellow teams both have 5. Next, the jungle Baron refreshes every 4 minutes and 20 seconds, while randomly dropped chests in the wild refresh 5 every 1 minute. The Red and Yellow teams still have a chance!"

The Treasure Chest Battle was limited to 20 minutes, with 5 chests spawning per minute. The randomly dropped chests in the wild totaled 100. The jungle Barons refreshed 4 times, dropping 5 each time upon killing, totaling 60 for the three Barons.

That is to say, there were a total of 160 treasure chests in the entire match. It was just the beginning, no need to rush.

Chi Shuo's [Stealth Rogue] could turn invisible, but his stealth time always had a cooldown. It wouldn't be too late to snatch chests from him when he appeared. Currently, it was more important to search for randomly dropped chests on the map as much as possible to accumulate their own trump cards. Thinking of this, Ye Shaoyang said: "Let's group up and search the map."

The Red Team's 5 members started searching the map clockwise, while the Blue and Yellow teams were also searching.

Soon, the match reached 2 minutes, and the second wave of random chests refreshed.

Refreshed chests would appear as golden dot markers on the minimap. One of them was very close, and Ye Shaoyang immediately led the team to take it. For the other 4, the Yellow Team had better luck this wave, getting 3, while the Blue Team got 1.

Ye Shaoyang glanced at the ranking.

Currently, the Red Team had a total of 6 chests, Yellow Team 8, and Blue Team already had 11.

Yao Mu said: "The Red Team is lagging behind too much, right? Almost falling behind by one round."

Brother Dong said calmly: "In a three-way battle, the team lagging behind is actually safer because everyone will stare at the first place; no one will think the third place is a threat."

Yao Mu thought about it and agreed: "True. Developing low-key in the early stage and snatching chests in the late stage can also win."

Ye Shaoyang was very calm and continued: "Group up and search, no rush, take it slow."

The Red Team continued to search everywhere on the map.

Soon, the third wave of chests refreshed.

They bumped into the Yellow Team in the jungle again. On the minimap, two glittering golden chests appeared in this patch of grass. Both teams happened to be nearby; Red Team wanted them, and Yellow Team also wanted them.

Give them directly to the opponent? That would be too cowardly.

This time, the two sides didn't reach a consensus; meeting meant simply starting a team fight.

Li Yunmo cast a Blessing Shield on a teammate. Xu Zhuo's [Kung Fu Master] dashed over unceremoniously with the shield, aiming precisely at teammate Xie Weiyu!

Xie Weiyu often PKed with Xu Zhuo during team training. He respected Captain Xu very much. Xu Zhuo debuted two years earlier than him and was his senior, taking great care of him.

But…

Today, on different teams, Old Xu showed no mercy hitting him, flashing directly to insta-kill him.

Xie Weiyu immediately flashed to escape. [Wind Elf] flashed and jumped behind a wall where Xu Zhuo couldn't catch him. He activated his ultimate and output damage frantically, reducing Xu Zhuo's [Kung Fu Master] to half health in the blink of an eye.

Xie Yuan shot rapidly from the side. The two marksmen positioned themselves in a "V" shape left and right, joining hands to beat Xu Zhuo down to a sliver of health. Just then, a gentle green light lit up—it was Qu Jiang activating his ultimate to heal.

Xu Zhuo's health quickly recovered.

Ye Shaoyang commanded: "Shield duration is over, kill Light of Blessing first!"

Killing Xu Zhuo was meaningless as he didn't have a single chest on him. He just came to harass the backline and create opportunities for teammates.

Hearing this, Zhao Xin'an decisively shouldered his big blade and jumped over to force-kill the support.

Ye Shaoyang's black shadow followed closely behind.

After activating his ultimate, [Vampire Duke] had extremely strong burst power. Combined with [Abyssal Lord]'s continuous stacking of marks, Zhao Xin'an and Ye Shaoyang joined hands to instantly force-kill Li Yunmo's support.

Zhao Xin'an said excitedly: "Beautiful!"

This was his first time teaming up with Xiao Bai to insta-kill someone, and their coordination was quite tacit.

The 2 treasure chests on the Yellow Team's support automatically transferred to Ye Shaoyang.

—[Abyssal Lord] obtained Treasure Chest × 2.

After killing the opposing support, Ye Shaoyang quickly swapped places with his shadow, hiding behind his own support. Chen Qianhua activated his shield to protect, and Ye Shaoyang said: "Quit while we're ahead; retreat!"

However, the Yellow Team wouldn't let them retreat just like that after snatching chests for free.

Xu Zhuo said decisively: "Leave those two squishy marksmen behind!"

Ye Shaoyang's [Abyssal Lord] could swap with shadows for flexible displacement. However, Xie Weiyu's marksman flash skill was already used. Although he activated his ultimate to jump quickly, before he could jump away, Sean's Witch released the "split" puppet, instantly following him. A "Lich's Bane" ultimate crippled him, and Xu Zhuo, healed to half health, dashed over to harvest Xie Weiyu's head with one slash.

Zhou Jiawen had been hiding in the grass nearby and took the opportunity to freeze the retreating Xie Yuan, insta-killing him with a full combo.

—[Kung Fu Master] obtained Treasure Chest × 1

—[Frost Goddess] obtained Treasure Chest × 1

Xie Weiyu and Xie Yuan died, and their chests were snatched by opponents.

The two public chests refreshed in the grass were picked up by Chen Qianhua in the chaos.

In this wave of jungle encounter between Red and Yellow teams, Red Team lost two marksmen and dropped 2 chests; Yellow Team lost a support and dropped 2 chests. But Red Team snatched the refreshed chests in the jungle, so overall Red Team profited.

Currently on the treasure chest ranking, Yellow Team was 8-2+2=8, still 8 chests. Red Team was 6-2+4=8, quantity equal.

But Blue Team went from 11 to 14.

Ye Shaoyang said: "Retreat to spawn point to heal, don't let Blue Team pick off stragglers…"

Just as his words fell, an exclamation mark "Invisible Hero Nearby" appeared above his head, and a sharp bloody light suddenly emerged from behind him.

[Stealth Rogue] breaking stealth would have significantly increased critical damage.

Ye Shaoyang trained with Chi Shuo every day and was very clear about Chi Shuo's burst power. Almost the instant he saw the exclamation mark, he flashed reflexively!

And Chi Shuo's understanding of Ye Shaoyang almost reached the level of brainwave synchronization.

He knew Yangyang would definitely flash to escape upon seeing him. So, at the moment Ye Shaoyang flashed, he suddenly appeared, using two consecutive dashes to chase quickly, the sharp blade in his hand piercing straight at the opponent's throat.

Abyssal Lord's E skill (swap with shadow) had a cooldown. When Chi Shuo chased over, Ye Shaoyang's skill happened to be on cooldown. He could only burst his hand speed to let three shadows besiege Chi Shuo.

The dazzling shadows could confuse enemies but couldn't confuse Chi Shuo. After all, Chi Shuo understood Ye Shaoyang's positioning style too well and could quickly predict Ye Shaoyang's location.

Chi Shuo wasn't polite with him either. Hand raised and blade falling, he quickly bypassed the shadows and killed the Abyssal Lord main body.

—Shuoyue (Stealth Rogue) killed Lieyang (Abyssal Lord)

—[Stealth Rogue] obtained Treasure Chest × 3

Ye Shaoyang: "…"

The livestream bullet screen area was very lively.

[Captain Chi killing Yangyang? This scene is rare to see!]

[Domestic violence scene confirmed.]

[Yangyang quickly kill him back!]

[Captain Chi is too arrogant, carrying 10 chests on him, more than the entire Red Team combined.]

At this time, Chi Shuo carried 10 chests, ranking first in the whole field.

Second was the Blue Team's [Ninja]; A'Yan picked up 3 public chests.

Fang Zhengqing still had 1 on him.

The Blue Team's total chest count had reached 14.

Ye Shaoyang laughed: "This Chi Shuo, reaping benefits while we started a team fight, too much."

Zhao Xin'an said: "Exactly. Beat them a wave after respawning, win it back!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a female warrior suddenly rush over from the side. The blade in her hand was covered with blooming blood-colored roses. With a crisp and neat slash, she accurately pierced through Zhao Xin'an's chest!

Zhao Xin'an: "…Fuck, why is my sister also hiding here!"

Chen Qianhua said calmly: "Their entire Blue Team is here."

Four small green snakes quickly surrounded Chen Qianhua. In the blink of an eye, five layers of poison were stacked on him. Fang Zhengqing detonated the poison; even a thick-skinned tank couldn't withstand it.

Beside them, A'Yan's [Ninja] brought Luo Team's [Succubus] over. Two assassins acted simultaneously, quickly harvesting Zhao Xin'an and Chen Qianhua's heads.

—[Rose's Edge] obtained Treasure Chest × 2

—[Ninja] obtained Treasure Chest × 3

—Red Team wiped out!

Seeing this message pop up, Zhao Xin'an couldn't help complaining: "Damn! All our treasure chests are gone."

Chen Qianhua was helpless: "3 vs 5, did our best."

After a hero died, the treasure chests on them would automatically transfer to the killer.

Red Team and Yellow Team encountered in the jungle just now. In the 5v5 team fight, Xie Weiyu and Xie Yuan were killed. When the remaining 3 retreated, they encountered the Blue Team's 5-person ambush and were directly wiped out.

This way, the 8 treasure chests Red Team picked up before were all gone.

Respawning took time. Ye Shaoyang thought calmly for a moment and suddenly had an idea: "How about this, next, let's not take chests for now, let's play a big game."

Xie Weiyu quickly understood his meaning: "Not looking for chests, specifically picking off kills?"

Ye Shaoyang smiled and said: "Correct. Having no chests on you is the safest."

Why did the Blue Team ambush them?

Not only because they lost two marksmen and were outnumbered, allowing the Blue Team to easily harvest their heads in a 5v3. More importantly, it was because the 3 of them had 8 treasure chests on them just now.

In the Treasure Chest Battle, the most important thing was the number of chests.

As long as the Red Team had no chests next, the Yellow and Blue teams wouldn't waste skills to force-kill them. After all, killing opponents with 0 chests was meaningless, and they might even die themselves, having their chests snatched by opponents instead.

Then next, the Yellow and Blue teams would fight fiercely for chests. Red Team could watch the tigers fight from the mountain and then reap the benefits. However, this strategy was very risky. Once they failed to kill the Blue and Yellow teams in the late game and ended the match with 0 chests, the Red Team would have played themselves and become the third place.

Chen Qianhua said: "I have no objection. It's an entertainment match anyway; winning or losing doesn't matter."

Zhao Xin'an said with a bitter face: "If we lose, just don't make me perform talent. I danced last year and lost 100,000 followers directly. If I sing a song this year, my followers will be all gone!"

Ye Shaoyang laughed: "Don't be afraid, we won't necessarily lose."

The match continued, Red Team waited to respawn.

At this time, the second wave of jungle Barons refreshed. Yellow Team went to do the dragon, Blue Team also went, but Red Team didn't even fight the dragon at their doorstep, wandering collectively in the jungle.

Yao Mu was stunned for a moment: "What does Red Team mean by this? Not fighting the dragon?"

Brother Dong said: "Red Team currently doesn't have a single chest in hand; have they given up treatment?"

Yao Mu said: "I'm actually quite looking forward to Xiao Zhao doing another street dance."

A burst of laughter erupted from the audience. Most viewers watching the All-Star knew about Zhao Xin'an's dark history of losing 100,000 followers from dancing. The bullet screen area was swamped with messages—

[Xiao Zhao hurts eyes]

[Danced well, don't dance in the future]

[Is Red Team giving up treatment? Why do I feel it's not like that]

[I reckon Red Team wants to strike at the last moment, kill people and take chests?]

[I think so too. Yangyang is so stubborn in matches; no reason to be cowardly in an All-Star, right?]

The match continued.

After some recuperation, Yellow Team's chest count quickly accumulated to 12, while Blue Team reached 23. Due to the large map size, the two sides didn't encounter each other this wave.

As time passed, the data on the treasure chest ranking kept changing.

When the match reached 12 minutes, Yellow Team and Blue Team encountered in the jungle. After a fierce battle, Yellow Team relied on the protection of two supports for Xu Zhuo to forcibly kill the opposing mage Fang Zhengqing; but Chi Shuo, A'Yan, and Luo Team, three junglers, quickly flanked and insta-killed Yellow Team's Sean and Zhou Jiawen.

The chest count became 44:36, Blue Team still leading.

Red Team wandered in the jungle all along, picking up chests casually. At this time, their chest count was only 5, 1 per person, not worth mentioning compared to the other two teams.

At 15 minutes, all three teams encountered in the jungle simultaneously.

Because this wave of 5 random chests actually spawned in the same location.

Ye Shaoyang said decisively: "Retreat, go do dragon."

Red Team gave up the contest and returned to their doorstep to fight the Baron.

Yellow and Blue teams engaged in fierce slaughter again. Blue Team's 3 assassins + 1 warrior had strong backline cutting ability. Although Yellow Team had two supports protecting them, Sean and Zhou Jiawen, the two mages, had limited output capability and were squishy. Being cut by 4 members of the Blue Team simultaneously, they couldn't withstand it even with two lives.

Once Sean and Zhou Jiawen fell, Yellow Team only had Xu Zhuo as a damage dealer.

The healer and support had no output capability, so the three could only flee back to the spawn point quickly.

Blue Team won this team fight beautifully, and their chest count suddenly became 70.

Yellow Team only had 36 left in hand.

Red Team casually took the dragon for 5, plus previous chests, only 15, still not worth mentioning.

Yao Mu said excitedly: "The match has reached the late game at 16 minutes. The last Baron is about to refresh. We see that Red Team still hasn't killed the Baron, while Blue and Yellow teams are killing Barons at top speed."

Brother Dong said: "Blue Team now has 70 chests. After killing the Baron, 75. The chance of winning is very high."

Just then, viewers with God's eye perspective suddenly saw Ye Shaoyang leading his teammates, quietly flanking from the jungle to near the Blue Team's dragon pit.

Yao Mu was stunned: "Wait a minute, Red Team is… going to steal the dragon?"

Almost as soon as her voice fell, Red Team's support Chen Qianhua suddenly flashed into the dragon pit. [Shield of Glory] raised his shield, an AoE stun, stunning Zhao Xinping and A'Yan who were doing the dragon in the pit simultaneously!

Xie Weiyu activated the Elf Princess's ultimate, positioning quickly and dealing damage.

Since hero levels and experience increased automatically in the Treasure Chest Battle, at this time, everyone's equipment was about the same. Xie Weiyu already had 6 god items; every arrow shot crit, hurting very much.

A'Yan was a squishy assassin. Although Zhao Xinping was a warrior, she couldn't withstand this set of burst from a late-game marksman.

In the blink of an eye, both were at low health. Xie Yuan collected their heads with two sharp arrows from a distance.

The output capability of dual marksmen was indeed terrifying.

—[Blood Kin Princess] obtained Treasure Chest × 20!

A burst of screams erupted at the scene.

[Fuck, earned big this time!]

[Red Team's strategy is a bit wretched; not doing their own dragon, suddenly coming to snatch the opponent's chests?]

Because Ye Shaoyang calculated clearly. There were 160 chests in the whole field; 70 were not enough to win. Blue Team would definitely do this dragon. The Baron had strong attack power; one person couldn't solo it, at least 2 people needed to do it together.

Then, Blue Team's strategy would definitely be Warrior Zhao Xinping plus one jungler doing the dragon, while the other 2 junglers and mage stayed out of vision to support nearby.

Red Team's unexpected ambush caught Blue Team off guard.

But Blue Team's reaction was also fast.

Fang Zhengqing's small snakes immediately chased Xie Yuan. He flashed over to catch up with Xie Yuan, surrounded him with four snakes, stacked five layers of poison at top speed, and Xie Yuan activated his lifesteal ultimate to trade AAs with him.

Team Jingzhe's dual carries usually coordinated tacitly, but today they hacked at each other without mercy. Seeing Xie Yuan's health about to recover, Fang Zhengqing cleanly detonated the poison to insta-kill him.

—[Cobra King] obtained Treasure Chest × 22!

Xie Yuan had 2 chests himself. The 20 he just snatched hadn't even warmed up before being snatched back by the captain.

Once Xie Yuan died, Zhao Xin'an immediately turned to chase Fang Zhengqing.

At this time, Fang Zhengqing's [Cobra King] ultimate was on cooldown. A mage could hardly withstand a warrior's hacking. In the blink of an eye, Fang Zhengqing was hacked to low health. He coordinated with [Charm Demon] to fight back against Zhao Xin'an. However, Zhao Xin'an activated his lifesteal ultimate and couldn't be killed immediately.

Xiao Zhao was like in a berserk state, fearless even in a 1v2.

In the blink of an eye, all 3 were at low health. Seeing Fang Zhengqing and Liu Luo about to die, Chi Shuo, who had been invisible nearby, suddenly appeared, collecting Zhao Xin'an's head with a neat backstab.

—[Stealth Rogue] obtained Treasure Chest × 2.

Blue Team kept the chests, but this wave wasn't over yet!

Chi Shuo immediately said: "Quickly return to spawn point."

He had a hunch that since Ye Shaoyang hadn't shown his face, he must be camping nearby.

At this time, Blue Team's Fang Zhengqing and Liu Luo only had a sliver of health left. The Blue Team's spawn point was nearby; as long as they returned there, they could heal to full. But once they were harvested, the chests might all drop.

The three headed to the spawn point at top speed.

Unfortunately, they had just taken two steps when a shield suddenly stood in front of them—League's Number One Support Chen Qianhua, the thick-skinned Shield of Glory, stood at the narrow intersection, blocking their way.

At the same time, three black shadows sprang out instantly—

Abyssal Gaze, Abyssal Mark!

Black eyes appeared above Fang Zhengqing's head. Before Fang Zhengqing's small snakes could be operated, he saw [Abyssal Lord] suddenly swap with a shadow from behind the wall to appear in front of him. The mark detonated, instantly killing the low-health him.

—[Abyssal Lord] obtained Treasure Chest × 25!

Fang Zhengqing carried 3 chests himself, plus the 22 snatched back just now. This death transferred all of them to Ye Shaoyang!

After [Abyssal Lord] killed someone, all skills refreshed immediately.

Liu Luo's [Charm Demon] and Fang Zhengqing's [Cobra King] happened to be not far apart. After all, they were going home collectively to heal, and this was the only way home.

Ye Shaoyang blocked their way home in advance, killed Fang Zhengqing first, followed by an E skill swap and Q skill mark, instantly insta-killing the low-health [Charm Demon] as well.

—[Abyssal Lord] obtained Treasure Chest × 20!

Ultimate refreshed again, Ye Shaoyang set his sights on Chi Shuo.

Chi Shuo had only used a Q skill when collecting the low-health Zhao Xin'an just now; his ultimate was still saved. Seeing this, he immediately stepped forward, the sharp blade in his hand stabbing cleanly at the [Abyssal Lord] main body.

Ye Shaoyang dodged Chi Shuo's attack with a shadow swap and struck back at Chi Shuo, but was dodged by Chi Shuo using a displacement skill. The two exchanged skills back and forth, dazzling the audience on site.

[Watching domestic violence scene!]

[Fuck, Sun and Moon duel is really good to watch!]

[This lightning-fast hand speed, my eyes don't deserve to understand.]

[A bunch of skills missed? Indeed know each other too well~]

[Yangyang is so fierce, flashed over directly!]

Ye Shaoyang was indeed fierce.

Because he knew that if he gave Chi Shuo more than 2 seconds, he would definitely die. And Chi Shuo's displacement skills: the first stage was used to kill Zhao Xin'an just now, and the second stage was used to dodge his shadow.

[Stealth Rogue] displacement on cooldown, Q skill on cooldown. This was his best chance to kill Chi Shuo!

Ye Shaoyang tapped the keyboard rapidly with his fingers, flashing decisively in front of Chi Shuo.

[Abyssal Lord]'s black shadows stacked marks at top speed. Immediately after, the Abyssal Vengeance ultimate detonated. 7 marks exploded instantly, and the squishy [Stealth Rogue] was insta-killed directly!

—[Abyssal Lord] obtained Treasure Chest × 30!

Deafening screams erupted throughout the venue.

[Yangyang killed Moon Moon, successful revenge~]

[Let's give applause to the domestic violence winner Lieyang!]

[This is the final boss!]

[Yangyang is awesome, triple kill in one wave, snatched 75 chests directly, fuck!]

[Red Team giving up treatment? No, Red Team was holding back a big move!]

[Have to say, Yangyang is so black-bellied; is the master tactician's stomach full of ink?]

Chi Shuo: "..."

The ellipsis popping up on the public screen represented Chi Shuo's mood.

On Yellow Team's side, Xu Zhuo was also confused: "Grass? What situation, Red and Blue teams are fighting?"

Qu Jiang said: "Let's hurry to Red Team's spawn point! Otherwise, it'll be too late."

In fact, it was already too late.

Ye Shaoyang's [Abyssal Lord]'s biggest advantage was being able to swap with shadows to travel quickly. On Yellow Team's side, neither Dark Witch nor Frost Goddess could travel as fast as Ye Shaoyang's mage assassin.

Ye Shaoyang burst his hand speed, sending shadows over walls and swapping the main body with shadows. He flew over eaves and ran up walls in the jungle to take shortcuts, arriving at the Red Team's spawn point at top speed.

The spawn point, similar to the base in the game, had an "invincible" protection effect and quickly restored heroes to full health. When Yellow Team's 5 members arrived, they saw Ye Shaoyang had already walked into the red spawn point.

Ye Shaoyang carried 10 chests himself, plus the triple kill on Blue Team in the last wave, snatching 75 chests.

At this time, Ye Shaoyang alone held 85 chests, exceeding half of the total 160 chests in the field. According to the rule of determining victory by chest count, Red Team must win.

And Yellow Team couldn't do anything to him.

Ye Shaoyang stood at the spawn point, looked at the 5 Yellow Team members in front of him, and typed a symbol: "^_^"

This meant: Come kill me. Too late, right?

Players of Yellow and Blue teams: "..."

You are simply a devil!
