Chapter 294 The Evil Cultivator's Cannon Cart Traps the Tiger General, the Experienced Driver Traverses the Helan Mountains
General Pang has spent his life on the battlefield. As the mid-laner of last year's World Championship, countless professional players have fallen before his eyes.

As the absolute core of Samsung White, Fat General's individual skill can be considered one of the strongest mid laners in the world.

However, at this very moment, even this top-tier mid-laner who had dominated countless professional players felt a profound sense of powerlessness when facing a sports car.

In the live stream, viewers were already losing their composure.

Holy crap, this siege engine! It feels like it could take down the fat general in a one-on-one fight!

This magic immunity is insane!

The fat general possesses exceptional martial arts skills, but lacks the opportunity to utilize them.

[This is unbelievable. Is Li even human? He's using a cannon truck to punish Pawn, huh?]

I admit, Li is intelligent, especially when it comes to unethical means.

Being fat is so pitiful, it breaks my heart to see it, hahaha.

They put in all their strength to shoot down that artillery vehicle.

At this point, Fatty finally realized that he probably couldn't handle the cannon vehicle.

After all, LeBlanc's basic attack damage is terribly low.

So he had no choice but to turn around and try to kill Sion, who was still destroying the tower.

The fat general unleashed a full set of skills, dealing some damage, but not much.

Both Zz'Rot Portal and Banner of Command can provide Sion with some dual resistances.

Most importantly, Sion's W ability allows his health to continuously grow.

So even though Zhou Li hasn't built any health items yet, his health and dual resistances are not low!
While LeBlanc has extremely high burst damage and Fat General is also doing well, LeBlanc lacks sustained damage output, making her very weak against tank champions like Sion.

"Wow! What are we going to do? It feels like the fat general can't hold off this Sion by himself! Li is still pushing hard, completely ignoring Pawn's damage output!"

In the commentary booth, Miller was already shocked by Zhou Li's outrageous forced demolition.

"The most critical issue right now is that, besides LeBlanc, EDG doesn't have anyone who can split push! Only Deft can take down Sion and the cannon minion buffed by Banner of Command. But as an ADC, Deft can't possibly split push an entire lane by himself!"

At this moment, the fat general felt the greatest humiliation of his career.

The opposing Sion, right in front of him, demolished the second turret in the top lane, then turned and tried to run away.

The fat general naturally couldn't let Sain leave so easily, otherwise it would be too humiliating.

Although LeBlanc lacks sustained damage, her mobility is sufficient to chase down and kill this clumsy Sion.

Faced with the Beast's relentless attacks, Sion appeared extremely clumsy, without even a chance to retaliate.

"Wow! You can tell Pawn is really angry! Today I'm going to kill you, Sion, to vent my anger!"

"Li didn't even have the courage to fight back when Pawn was chasing him. He could only run, but it felt like he couldn't escape!"

Watching Pawn beat up Zhou Li, the viewers in the live stream felt a sense of satisfaction and shared in the moment.

Go Pawn, kill this bastard!

This game is so disgusting, I'd chase him all the way to the fountain and kill him.

[This is hilarious! They were fearless when demolishing towers, but now they don't even have the courage to fight back against Pawn.]

[As expected of the worst Korean import, getting beaten so badly they're running away with their heads in their hands.]

[Because I'm too incompetent, all I can do is resort to unorthodox cultivation methods.]

At this moment, Sion had already run to the top lane riverbank. Pawn's LeBlanc stepped on him with Phantom Dancer and then tried to control Sion with her E skill Chain, but Sion twisted it away.

In fact, after chasing for so long, General Pawn had already sensed that something was amiss.

The positioning of this kid on the other side is just too good.

His chains haven't hit a single time so far, otherwise he would have killed this Sion long ago.

This time, however, was different from before. Perhaps knowing that he couldn't escape, the low-health Sion finally put up a fight for the first time.

He turned around and started charging up his Q.

The fat general didn't take it seriously and simply pressed W to reset.

However, the next second, Sion suddenly made a diving motion!
"boom!"

The thunderous roar of the train of the times echoed once again between the canyons!
Without any hesitation, the fat general used Flash to teleport behind Sion!
He wanted to physically block Sion's ultimate attack!

If this disgusting guy gets away like this, the fat general probably won't be able to sleep at night!

Everyone assumed they would use their ultimate attack to escape in their own direction.

The Zhou Dynasty even deliberately used a 45-degree angle as the starting direction.

But to everyone's surprise, instead of running towards home, Sain rushed towards the river!
Miller was about to speak when Clearlove arrived in the river to block him. The next moment, Sion turned around and plunged into the tri-bush in EDG's jungle!
"Hey! Where is this Sion going?!"

Sion, who had charged into the triangular bush, made another right turn and headed straight for the blue buff.

After passing the blue buff, immediately make a left turn!
"My God! What is he doing?!"

"Sion charged straight to EDG's top lane inhibitor! That was such a smooth ride, how many years of experience must he have been driving!"

"Oh!!"

A gasp of surprise erupted from the audience!

No one expected that Sion, with low health, would not use his ultimate to escape, but instead charge towards EDG's high ground!
And his smooth driving skills along the way were truly eye-opening!

Most importantly, General Fat had been chasing Zhou Li, and the hero Yao Ji didn't have any AOE skills, so the minion wave was missed!

And the artillery vehicles that had been reinforced by the Banner of Command are still alive!

Units buffed by the Banner of Command will retain the Banner of Command buff as long as they do not die.

Meanwhile, the Zzrot portal that Zhou Li had previously placed was still working, continuously producing ethereal minions!

Before Zhou Li's Sion even returns to EDG's high ground, he can start building immediately without even waiting!
"They've gone mad! They've gone completely mad!!"

On the commentary panel, the child was completely dumbfounded by Zhou Li's actions.

"No way, who plays games like that! This is practically forced demolition!!"

The live stream room was completely buzzing with excitement!
【6666! 】

That's amazing driving skill!

[Holy crap, is this a human?]

【unbelievable! 】

At this moment, everyone on the EDG player bench was stunned by Zhou Li's actions.

Even the usually mild-mannered Fat General couldn't help but unconsciously swear.

"Damn it, why is this person playing the game like this?!"

The big tree with braised pork belly immediately rushed to support the high ground tower.

But he soon discovered that his tree was less effective against Sion and the siege minions enhanced by Banner of Command than even a super minion.

"Damn it, this won't do! I can't handle him by myself!"

The braised pork belly shouted loudly.

Deft, who was in the bottom lane, had no choice but to recall.

Because if they don't go back and deal with Sion soon, their top lane inhibitor tower might be demolished!

EDG finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

The Banner of Command grants immunity to magic damage, yet their lineup has four champions who primarily rely on AP damage output!
Aside from Kog'Maw, the other four heroes find it even harder to defeat the siege minion buffed by Banner of Command than to take down Baron Nashor.

Only Nunu's Q skill can deal significant damage to cannon minions.

However, even at max level, Nunu's Q only deals 1000 true damage and has a 9-second cooldown. Crucially, Clearlove doesn't max Q, and most importantly, he needs to be in front of the cannon minion to cast it. Banner of Command, on the other hand, grants the cannon minion an additional 600 health, which, combined with its base 900 health at that time, amounts to a total of 1500 health.

Therefore, even getting the snowman to handle this cannon is extremely difficult.

As the situation developed, EDG realized that, facing Sion's tower-pushing, their lineup only had Deft's Kog'Maw to deal with it!

But why is an ADC being constantly pinned down in the side lane by a tank?
Their original lineup in team fights was designed to have four players surround one enemy to create an opportunity for Kog'Maw to deal damage.

If this person can't join a group, how can the group fight?
"Sion's split-pushing is really causing a lot of trouble for EDG! We can only let Kog'Maw deal with Sion!"

"Li! Even after seeing Big Mouth, he still shows no sign of leaving!"

"Right now, all he can see is EDG's top lane inhibitor turret!!"

"What's the use of life? It's already been given away!!"

As a late-game carry hero with mixed damage, Kog'Maw can take down tanks very quickly.

Zhou Li's Sion was quickly melted when facing Kog'Maw's damage output.

But it doesn't matter.

As everyone knows, Sion is a true demolition expert after he dies.

"eighty!"

"eighty!"

Even with the big mouth pulling him away, Zhou Li still managed to reduce the high ground tower's health to half by relying on his passive ability!

This is because the high ground tower in Season 5 changed its mechanism and became a laser tower, which significantly increased its damage.

If it were the previous defensive tower, it could have taken at least another half of its health.

While EDG appeared to have defended their high ground and even killed Sion, they actually suffered an economic loss in this exchange.

Because at this point, Sion was practically worthless.

Because most of EDG's players were tied up in the top lane by Sion, LGD directly secured the dragon, cleared EDG's bottom jungle resources and vision, and also took down EDG's already crumbling mid-lane turret.

EDG may have gained a kill, but they actually lost nearly a thousand gold in the process!
The factory manager realized that he could no longer be held back by LGD, so he targeted Baron Nashor.

When in doubt, fight the big dragon.

As a late-game team, they now need to proactively speed up their pace.

However, LGD had already taken precautions, and as soon as EDG made a move, LGD detected the movement.

Given EDG's lineup, it's very difficult for LGD to engage in team fights head-on.

In particular, most of their economy is now actually in Sain's hands.

EDG clearly understood this, and they performed very strongly against LGD's defense.

Hirano Aya glanced anxiously at the panel, and seeing that Sion was about to respawn, she quickly said:

"If you revive, just charge straight in front..."

He was halfway through his sentence when he realized that the other person had already turned off the sound in their headphones.

So he could only type.

[The tank has been resurrected and is coming to regroup.]

Hirano Aya pressed the send button, only to discover that Zhou Li had somehow blocked her even in the game!

At this moment, Zhou Li was not in a hurry at all.

Although EDG looks aggressive right now, as if they are determined to get this Baron.

But he knew the factory owner too well.

When in doubt, fight the big dragon?
This could happen to any team, but it's extremely unlikely for EDG.

Who is the factory owner? A steady, reliable guy in the wild.

If LGD still has one player with Smite, they won't choose to fight Baron.

EDG appears to be aiming for Baron Nashor, but their real goal is to force LGD into a head-on team fight.

Although he was well-developed, the equipment he wore was all from evil cultivators.

Given the current disparity in rosters between the two sides, sending T to the front would be utterly suicide.

Moreover, once the "suicide attack" strategy is initiated, there's no turning back.

EDG and LGD were still sparring near the Baron pit when Zhou Li, who had just respawned, immediately chose to teleport!

In the commentary booth, just a second ago, Wawa was nervously analyzing the situation.

"EDG isn't going to drag this out with LGD anymore; they're pushing for Baron! So now, Sion has to go head-to-head and engage, otherwise LGD won't be able to win a team fight..."

The next second, he saw Sion's Teleport activated!

"Hey!! Li! What are you doing! Why did you teleport to the bottom lane?!"

Zhou Li's teleport left the commentators, the audience, the netizens, EDG, and even LGD stunned!
"What are you doing, Zhou Li?!"

The voice message contained Hirano Aya's helpless roar.

But Zhou Li obviously couldn't hear it.

He had already destroyed EDG's bottom lane inhibitor tower before, and this time he didn't even need to worry about the minion wave, and started to destroy the inhibitor crystal directly!

If it were any other team, their first instinct would be to rush Baron Nashor and force the rest of LGD to engage.

However, the factory's choice is that they must initiate a strong team fight first before they can go back to take down Baron!

Left with no other option, Kou Rou's tree had to resort to using Flash to force an engagement!

However, LGD wasn't stupid. Although Zhou Li's choice to teleport to the bottom lane shocked them, they also knew that they couldn't engage in a team fight at this point.

Hirano Aya's Nami immediately activated her ultimate skill, preventing EDG from rushing in.

The Centaur, who was controlled by the tree, escaped without even having to use his ultimate ability, thanks to his high movement speed.

EDG's offensive has been thwarted, and they are once again in a dilemma.

At this point, the fat general finally couldn't stand the pointless pulling anymore and quickly spoke up:

"Attack Baron! Just go for it! Just go for it!"

Left with no other choice, the factory manager had to agree. At least this wave could be considered as having triggered Nami's ultimate skill. In the Baron pit terrain, Nami's ultimate skill still has a very strong deterrent effect.

Seeing EDG turn around and immediately rush Baron, Zhou Li glanced at it and said:

"Never mind that, just go and grab the Taobao rights, you guys just push the line!"

Taobao Quan was taken aback when he heard Zhou Li suddenly speak.

"You're even giving orders now? Why aren't you coming for Baron?!"

Faced with accusations from Taobao, Zhou Li acted as if he hadn't heard them, continuing to dismantle the crystal while saying:
"Push forward along the central route and shift your vision to the upper half of the area."

"Didn't you hear me talking to you?"

Taobao Quan couldn't help but question again.

However, Zhou Li still did not react.

At this point, Taobao finally understood.

This kid must have turned off the radio, but the mic is still on.

Now he's just a broadcaster, he doesn't receive anything, he only broadcasts!

That's fucking despicable!
