Chapter 100: -99- Subdued
Camille was genuinely considering making a run for it.
After all, her most powerful assets were these specially crafted legs, and with the enhancement of Hextech, she believed her legs were among the world's top-tier weapons.
However, now she couldn't even cut through this purple-clad woman's flesh? How could Camille accept this?
As a spy, she was feeling a sense of retreat. Her mission was supposed to be capturing Vander, the father of Zaun, but unexpectedly, she encountered Vander's daughter, the head of weapons department.
Camille initially planned to take Vander away, kill or even take Powder with her. The latter's existence would undoubtedly yield considerable benefits for the Ferros family.
However, Camille was totally unprepared. Zaun had such a powerful individual?
Watching Kai'Sa charging at her, driven by the urge to retreat, Camille shifted from offense to defense.
However, in close combat, Camille realized how uncomfortable it was. Kai'Sa's speed was much faster than she expected. Under the power of Hextech, Camille could barely keep up with Kai'Sa's movements and counterattack accordingly. But there was a problem.
Camille's attacks caused minimal damage to Kai'Sa. Despite the agility of her legs, whenever the blades touched Kai'Sa's body, it only resulted in a slight frown or a gritted teeth from the latter. Soon, Kai'Sa would charge back, delivering a flurry of chaotic blows.
Kai'Sa's close combat skills were truly lacking. In Camille's eyes, who was proficient in various martial arts, Kai'Sa seemed like someone who hadn't learned any combat techniques—a person relying on instinct in a fight. Therefore, Camille could block all of her attacks.
Even so, as Kai'Sa's speed increased and she became more familiar with Camille's tricky leg techniques, Camille started feeling pressured. Especially those light projectiles fired at close range, those attacks were the most bothersome for Camille.
The shield's energy was severely depleted, and she couldn't find a way to counter it. As Kai'Sa entangled Camille, planning to wear her down, another figure sneaked in. Powder bent down, quietly moving forward. Her target was the laser gun under a broken stone.
Powder was here to help. She wanted to assist Kai'Sa in subduing Camille, considering Kai'Sa had been taking a beating from her perspective.
What could she do—Powder didn't know, but she didn't realize that, although Kai'Sa looked somewhat battered, she was currently in the advantageous position, and it was Camille who was feeling overwhelmed.
Avoiding Camille's gaze, Powder finally got hold of her previously lost laser gun. Camille was entangled by Kai'Sa, unable to pay attention to Powder.
Right now, Camille dared not to distract herself; Kai'Sa's attack speed was increasing, and in close and long-range alternations, Camille only needed one moment of inattention, and the shield's energy would be massively depleted.
Camille didn't know how long she could hold on.
But escape?
Camille tried that just now, but the moment the grappling hook was launched, Kai'Sa directly reached out and grabbed Camille's hook, then tossed her along with the instrument away. If Camille hadn't reacted quickly, cutting off the grappling hook with her leg blades, she would likely be under Kai'Sa's control by now.
Kai'Sa was faster than her, much faster! This woman might lack Camille's skills, but her physical qualities far exceeded Camille's. Camille felt a sense of powerlessness for the first time in her life.
Previously, she had always used her mechanical legs and body to bully others. Now, she was the one being bullied.
Unknown to Camille, while she was entangled in the struggle with Kai'Sa, Powder had already taken up the laser gun, lying on the ground, squinting her eyes, and aiming at Camille.
"Ugh.... I can do this."
Powder took a deep breath, giving herself encouragement. The speed of these two was too fast, and in Powder's eyes, they were even leaving afterimages.
But as a sharpshooter, at this distance, although the actions were fast, as long as you grasped the rhythm of their movements, it was manageable.
Powder earnestly observed for a good half minute.
Then....
"Boom!"
"Kai'Sa!"
Powder shouted loudly. Kai'Sa, hearing the call, glanced and quickly reacted, both hands aimed at Camille. Kai'Sa gathered her power.
"Damn it!"
Camille also noticed Powder's attack. Her eyes, shifting between blue and yellow, finally settled on blue.
The energy shield could only respond to the same type of energy each time. This was why Camille's shield was so powerful—precision.
However, Powder's laser attacks had been analyzed by Camille's energy shield. That wasn't magical power! Although the laser gun borrowed the power of Hextech gems, the portion occupied by Hextech was not significant.
Camille tried to dodge Powder's attack, but Kai'Sa's palm was already pressed against her waist.
Shortened by a considerable margin, Kai'Sa aimed both hands at the blue shield that appeared in front of Camille and quickly exerted force.
"Bang!"
A crisp sound echoed. Purple light accompanied the shattered blue barrier, and Camille flew backward heavily. Behind her was the laser beam fired by Powder.
"Sizzle!"
The blue-snake-shaped light entwined Camille's body. The "sizzle" sound continued, and Camille's body couldn't help but tremble.
A sense of powerlessness surged. Although her heart and most of her body were mechanical, Camille knew that to become a top warrior, sensory perception was an indispensable part. Therefore, Camille's brain was not mechanized, and she did not eliminate her own sense of touch.
In response, a massive electric shock plunged Camille into a state of paralysis.
But with a strong will and a robust physique, Camille quickly regained her composure.
But it was too late.
Kai'Sa stepped on Camille's stomach, bent down, and placed her palms in front of Camille's eyes.
"Don't move."
Kai'Sa said.
"."
"That scared me. I thought I had hit you just now." Powder also ran up, holding a small pistol, and ran to Kai'Sa's side, saying with a smile, "I made a contribution!"
The scene that appeared earlier made Powder have a bit of goodwill towards this woman brought back by Linwin.
Of course, just a bit!
"Let's tie her up first, then show Vander and the others."
Powder suggested. Kai'Sa nodded, pulled out Camille's grappling hook, and with Powder, they used Camille's grappling hook to tie her up tightly.
During this process, Powder noticed something unusual.
So she asked Kai'Sa, "Why do you keep kicking her butt?"
Kai'Sa immediately said, "Nothing! I absolutely wasn't retaliating!"
