Among the five of them, besides Matzos, who he had met before, Li Huailin had a slight impression of, and that was the guy who was leading the group, Vargas. In the previous meeting, this guy had been particularly arrogant at the beginning. Then, he had been scared speechless by Saint Sothoth. Hence, Li Huailin still had some memories of him.
The other party had blocked his path, so it was obvious that he had been waiting for him here. Li Huailin thought about it for a while and had a rough idea of what the other party was planning. Yes, it was very likely that these Saint-level experts had agreed on a meeting method beforehand. Then, of course, they would gather much faster than Li Huailin's troops. Among them, Matzos had met Li Huailin before, so he had probably told the others about Li Huailin's information. After a brief discussion, they felt that they wanted to get rid of Li Huailin, probably because they were afraid of Li Huailin.
Yes, the actual situation was similar to what Li Huailin had guessed. The Saint-level experts had agreed on a meeting method beforehand, so they gathered and exchanged information. The information they received made them nervous. Yes, of course, there were also Li Huailin's men among them. According to the information they received, Li Huailin's troops were planning to gather. Although they didn't know what Li Huailin's plan was after his troops gathered, it was obvious that it was disadvantageous to them. Four of them weren't captains, and one of them was a subordinate of Li Huailin. If they waited for Li Huailin's troops to gather, they might be eliminated inexplicably.
If they continued waiting, they would be sitting ducks. Of course, they had to think of a way. They knew that Li Huailin's current troops had been weakened. They had seen with their own eyes those guys of unknown levels withdraw from the battle. However, Li Huailin still had Saint-level subordinates participating. Hence, if they waited for them to gather, it would be difficult for them to directly attack Li Huailin's troops.
Just as he was having a headache, Matzos came over and brought a piece of good news: Li Huailin's current location and Li Huailin's current situation. Yes, according to what Matzos said, Li Huailin was only leading his own team. The few people in the team didn't look like much, and many of them were adventurers. In their eyes, the adventurers were obviously at the level of being easy pickings. The rest were obviously soldiers, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
This timely news caused the eyes of all the Martial Saints to light up. Yes, as the saying goes, to shoot a man, one must shoot his horse. To capture the followers, one must first capture the leader. Now was the best time to capture Li Huailin. On the other hand, if they allowed Li Huailin to meet up with his troops, then they would obviously be the ones suffering. They reckoned that Li Huailin would not let them enter the next round no matter what. By the time he met up with his troops, it would be too late for them to make a move on Li Huailin.
To be honest, they were really a little afraid of Li Huailin. They didn't know why this guy had such a strong background. Not only did he have so many Martial Saints who listened to Li Huailin's commands, but there were also those guys of unknown levels. The previous peace talks had left a deep impression on these Martial Saints. Hence, if he successfully entered the next round, they felt that it would be too difficult for them to play even if they advanced to the next round. Hence, they definitely had to grasp this good opportunity.
Hence, after a brief discussion, they decided to make a move to stop Li Huailin. Of course, the location of the attack was quite easy to choose. This was because the direction in which Li Huailin was moving was very clear. They were definitely going to meet up with their subordinates. Hence, the route was easy to guess. They didn't have time to wait for the other Martial Saints to gather up. The five of them directly rushed to the route that Li Huailin was moving.
According to their plan, they decided to stop Li Huailin's movement. After all, four of them weren't captains. Hence, they could be resurrected. First of all, they weren't afraid of death. After being resurrected, according to their strength, as long as they didn't teleport too far away, they would still be able to rush to the battlefield in time. As long as the few of them continued to attack, they should be able to delay Li Huailin until the end of the game. Yes, the tiebreaker this time only had an hour. Now, almost 20 minutes had passed. Hence, there were still 40 minutes left. Hence, as long as they could delay for about half an hour, even if they didn't manage to delay Li Huailin's group and allowed them to meet up in time, they wouldn't be able to do anything in the remaining time.
Yes, this idea came to them when they saw Eopham. They didn't expect Li Huailin to have a dragon by his side. This was something they had never seen before. Moreover, this dragon didn't look like an ordinary dragon. It was a white dragon. They seemed to have heard of it in myths. It was the white dragon Eopham, the founder of modern magic. However, didn't this guy die a long time ago? They didn't know how this thing appeared and why it was standing next to Li Huailin. Anyway, the battle that they thought would be easy had now entered hell mode. Now, they just wanted to delay Li Huailin. If they wanted to eliminate Li Huailin … It would probably be a little difficult.
"It seems like they're waiting for you." Of course, Eopham had also noticed the few Saint-grade combatants from afar. Five Saint-grade combatants was nothing to Eopham, so of course, she didn't panic at all.
"Mother Long, I want to ask you a question," Li Huailin suddenly said.
"Can you change the way you address me? You're not my son, "Eopham said.
"That's not important. What I want to ask is … How does the back of a dragon count?" Li Huailin asked.
"Uh …" Eopham hesitated for a moment. Then … she silently transformed back into her human form. Yes, after being reminded by Li Huailin, she suddenly realized that the back area of her dragon form was too large. She was the team leader, and although the Saint-tier attacks weren't much of a threat to her, the problem was that she would still be eliminated if her back was touched. It would be too shameful for an Old God like her to fail in front of these juniors who had leveled up.
Of course, the Saint-grade combatants on the other side weren't stupid. They knew the situation when they saw Eopham's actions. It was obvious that Eopham and Li Huailin weren't on the same team. Eopham was obviously the captain. This also reminded them of the way to defeat Eopham. Although fighting head-on might not work, there were special rules now. If they couldn't win, they could try using underhanded means.
"The three of you hold off the dragon. The two of us will deal with this guy," Vagel said after some thought. Yes, they thought about it and decided that it would be better to start with Li Huailin. Matzos had already reported the situation on Li Huailin's side. Li Huailin was strong, but he wasn't that strong. After all, they had fought for two rounds. Li Huailin had indeed parried Matzos' attack and broken through his defense, but the other Saint-grade combatants could do the same. Hence, Matzos judged that Li Huailin's strength should be around the Saint-grade. Hence, now that the two Saint-grade combatants were working together to deal with Li Huailin, they should be able to take him down.
Eopham's side was a little troublesome. If this guy was really the legendary God of Magic, then the three Saint-grade combatants wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. However, there was nothing they could do now. Fortunately, the rules were in their favor. On one hand, they weren't afraid of death. On the other hand, they could threaten Li Huailin's back. Maybe they could force Li Huailin to be fearful. Although these Saint-grade combatants didn't trust each other that much previously, they could only do so in the current situation.
They nodded and began to move. Eopham instantly understood the other party's grouping behavior. She said to Li Huailin, "Leave these three to me."
Li Huailin really wanted to tell Eopham to leave them all to him. After all, it was really troublesome to deal with two Saint-grade combatants. Eopham probably didn't think much of it. After all, in her eyes, Li Huailin had defeated several Protoss in seconds. How could he not deal with two Saint-grade combatants? Eopham didn't believe it, so she just said it casually. However, Li Huailin couldn't really say that he couldn't deal with them. He and Eopham were only in a cooperative relationship. Of course, the necessary deterrence was still needed. He had to pretend to be an expert. However …
Li Huailin glanced at the opposite group. The people coming towards him were Vargel and Matsos. Yes, both of them … were swordsmen. When he looked at the other people who were going to deal with Eopham, Li Huailin's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wait, I'll deal with these three," Li Huailin said immediately.
"Oh?" Eopham was slightly stunned. However, after thinking about it, it didn't seem to make much of a difference. Yes, in her eyes, the Saint-grade combatants were about the same level. There wasn't much difference in numbers between two and three. She didn't mind if Li Huailin insisted on fighting three of them. Anyway, he probably didn't have many points on him. There was no point in beating him to death. Yes, in her opinion, if Li Huailin could defeat a Protoss in seconds, would it be a problem to deal with three Saint-grade combatants? It was obvious that he wanted to show off. It was probably a child's desire to win more battles than himself. Eopham didn't mind.
"Whatever." As Eopham spoke, she swung her fist to the side. With a loud bang, Vargel's figure suddenly appeared in front of Li Huailin. Of course, he had been sent flying by Eopham. Although he had the body of a human, he was still a dragon. Although Eopham didn't use magic, even a Saint-grade combatant might not be able to withstand her fist.
"Then I'll deal with these two," Eopham said calmly as she appeared in front of Matsos in a flash.
