Just like that, Tang Hao became the first member of Wind Howl to be eliminated, but Fang Rui didn't have the time to pay attention to Tang Hao's expression. After understanding Team Happy's strategy, a wave of dizziness almost made him lose his grip on his mouse.
If this was a match, Wind Howl would have an overall advantage even though they were down by one player. In order to kill Demon Subduer, Happy had lost a lot of health. Let alone the fact that they didn't have a healer, even if they did, with their low health, their healers might not be able to keep up and they would be killed one by one.
But the problem was, this wasn't a match.
As a result, Happy, who hadn't cared about anything before, was now running away to his heart's content.
"Where do you think you're going!" Zhao Yuzhe roared. How could he allow Happy to escape unscathed? An Elementalist with high damage and a powerful AoE cannon was the perfect counter to Happy's shaky health.
Their captain's sacrifice couldn't be wasted!
At this moment, Zhao Yuzhe was quite confident. His Elementalist charged forward like a Battle Mage.
"Careful!" Fang Rui hastily shouted.
He couldn't tell what kind of strategy Happy had planned. But since their intentions were so clear, how could they not have made any plans to escape unscathed? Let Wind Howl chase after them? If that was the case, it would be no different from seeking death.
Intuition told Fang Rui that Happy's retreat meant that they had a backup plan. If they rashly chased after them, they would definitely fall for it.
But Zhao Yuzhe couldn't hear anything at this moment. Even though Fang Rui was the senior of the team, a famous God, in the eyes of many, playing dirty wasn't something that could be seen in public. What Zhao Yuzhe liked more was Tang Hao's "the junior succeeds the senior" and counterattacks. As for Fang Rui's dirty playstyle, he didn't appreciate it from the bottom of his heart. Even though he didn't dare act rashly in front of his senior most of the time, right now, his blood was boiling and there was a bunch of low-health players waiting for him to kill. It wasn't hard to understand why he ignored Fang Rui's warning.
Teleport!
Zhao Yuzhe was afraid that any of Happy's players would escape, so he directly teleported his Elementalist into the enemy formation. He wanted to kill all five of them without leaving a single one alive. As soon as he finished teleporting, he had already prepared an instant cast spell. His character, Beautiful Light, raised his staff and was about to cast it. (Zhao Yuzhe's character name was slightly different from the beginning to the end … Looking back at the previous article, I'll lock it in as "Beautiful Light Changing" to be accurate!)
Fang Rui was dumbfounded by Zhao Yuzhe's boldness. His opponent's HP was low, but he wasn't dead yet. Did he really think that the five monsters in front of him were Instance Dungeon monsters that could be dispelled by fear? Perhaps he would think that his bold move would be a surprise blow to his opponent ….
Okay, Fang Rui admitted in his heart. From the perspective of reverse psychology, such a stupid move was indeed unexpected. He could only hope that the Happy Ones were too wise and farsighted to notice that such a stupid thing had happened! What if Zhao Yuzhe's movements were so fast that the opponent couldn't react in time?
But at this moment, Beautiful Light was already on the ground …
Fang Rui felt that it was a pity that he couldn't see Happy's expressions. Right now, would they be very surprised? Would they be admiring Zhao Yuzhe's courage? However, it looked like they didn't relent. Beautiful Light was knocked over, but he was quickly knocked into the air again. Then, Lord Grim and Soft Mist worked together to send him back with a Falling Flower Palm, followed by Dancing Rain's artillery shell.
Happy didn't have much HP after all, so he didn't dare continue fighting. He quickly defeated Beautiful Light and used his body as the first line of defense. Then, he used long-range attacks to suppress them. The team's Knight player wanted to charge forward while enduring the damage, but in the end, he was stopped by Fang Rui.
"Why aren't you going up!!!" Zhao Yuzhe, who had just been sent flying, had his Beautiful Light climb up from the ground and roared furiously. In this instant, his dissatisfaction with Fang Rui, the master of playing dirty, had reached its peak.
"The opponent was prepared. What awaited us was a trap," Fang Rui said.
"How would we know if we didn't try!" Zhao Yuzhe yelled.
"Didn't you try?" Fang Rui asked back.
Zhao Yuzhe was speechless. He had tried, but he really wanted to say that what he had tested didn't seem like Happy's meticulous preparation. But why was it like this? Because he was an idiot! His impulsive, hot-blooded, domineering actions didn't need any meticulous preparation. His actions had been too careless, so much so that the opponent had immediately pinched him. But Zhao Yuzhe wasn't willing to admit to Fang Rui that he had been an idiot all along. He still felt like if he had been just a split second faster, the ones lying on the ground would have been Happy's five.
"Hurry and chase!" Zhao Yuzhe avoided answering Fang Rui's question. He only called for the other two to follow.
Captain Tang Hao wasn't here, so there was a clear divide in Wind Howl's battle strategy. The Knight and Cleric weren't completely focused on the game. They were both sneaking glances at Fang Rui and Zhao Yuzhe, who were outside the game. In the end, they didn't move. Zhao Yuzhe was currently the future of Wind Howl, but Fang Rui was currently the most senior member of the team. In addition, he was the vice-captain. The two didn't move, which meant that they agreed with Fang Rui's decision.
Zhao Yuzhe's Beautiful Light rushed out, but found that the other two weren't with him. This time, he didn't dare to charge into Happy's formation by himself. He could only have Beautiful Light stop. Outside the game, he glared at the two players like he was going to eat them. He didn't dare to be too arrogant towards Fang Rui, but he wasn't afraid of these people at all.
The entire practice room was silent. There were only five people who could form a team and come to the Nest. However, the other players who weren't part of the five-man team didn't leave either. They also wanted to see what this Easter egg was all about, but what they saw was their own team's players having a conflict in an in-game event.
Most people felt uneasy, but there were a few people who were interested in what was happening in front of them.
Liu Hao.
Liu Hao, who had given up on Thunderclap and transferred to Wind Howl on a free transfer.
He hadn't been in the team for long, so he wasn't in a hurry to become active. He was carefully observing this new team. Because this time, he truly wanted to achieve some results, unlike his time with Thunderclap. In his eyes, Thunderclap was just a springboard. He didn't feel like that team could contain a big Buddha like him.
Speaking of which, Liu Hao felt that with his own skill, he could definitely replace Jiang Botao in Team Samsara. Unfortunately, Samsara was very satisfied with Jiang Botao and Zhou Zekai as partners. They had strongly attracted Liu Hao's former teammates, Sun Xiang and One Leaf Of Autumn, from Excellent Era, but they had never made any moves to replace Jiang Botao. In the end, Liu Hao was accepted into Team Wind Howl. Liu Hao was very satisfied with this team that had risen to prominence last season. He decided to do well here.
However, in Team Wind Howl, Tang Hao was the absolute main force and core. Zhao Yuzhe was the team's Best Rookie, a future star whose talent and growth had been recognized. Fang Rui was currently the most experienced All Star player in the team. In addition, he was an indispensable healer in the team competition. In the blink of an eye, there was only one spot left in the starting five.
Was this spot just for Liu Hao?
At least for now, Liu Hao didn't feel that Wind Howl valued him that much. They didn't seem to have determined that Liu Hao was an important piece of the puzzle for their team. They were still fumbling around, looking for the most suitable combination. As for Liu Hao, as a player with skill and a free agent, they were more of an experimental mindset. They would sign him first and think about it later.
This experimental mindset made them not particularly eager to chase after Liu Hao. In fact, there were many teams more sincere than Wind Howl. For example … Team Myth.
This team, which currently had three players from Excellent Era, had contacted Liu Hao at the very beginning, and had made a very sincere promise. Core, captain, a fully prepared plan, clearly presented to Liu Hao. But he rejected it without even thinking about it.
Myth? In Liu Hao's eyes, it should be a joke. They wanted him to play for a newly promoted team that had just entered the Alliance? Then he might as well stay in Thunderclap! Core? Captain? Do you really care about the core and captain of a team like yours?
Liu Hao ignored this kind of sincere gesture. In the end, when Team Wind Howl expressed their interest in him, he immediately threw himself at them in high spirits. This kind of strong team with a chance of winning the championship was where he wanted to end up!
Liu Hao was only one of Team Wind Howl's options at the time. Rather than saying that their sincerity moved Liu Hao, it was more accurate to say that Liu Hao's enthusiasm made them accept him in the end.
Free agents didn't need to pay a transfer fee. They only needed to pay a salary. For the sake of becoming stronger, for the sake of winning the championship, it wasn't difficult for any team to make such an attempt. As a result, Wind Howl had acted quickly. As soon as the transfer window opened, they immediately signed Liu Hao.
Wind Howl looked forward to the changes that Liu Hao could bring, but they didn't have a clear plan for now. They were still researching and imagining Liu Hao, so Liu Hao could feel that he didn't have a stable position in Wind Howl yet. As a result, he paid attention. As someone born in a powerhouse, he obviously knew how to find opportunities to climb up the team's ladder.
And at this moment, conflict erupted within Team Wind Howl. Liu Hao observed all of this with great interest.
Fang Rui.
Zhao Yuzhe.
It really wasn't strange at all for the new player to argue with the old player. The new player felt that the old player was blocking his path forward, while the old player felt that the new player was a threat to his position … this kind of opposing feeling wasn't just in the pro teams, but in every level of society.
It was just that Wind Howl had already made it public. But whether it was Fang Rui or Zhao Yuzhe, neither of them had the most authority in this team! The direction of this conflict ultimately depended on whether or not Wind Howl's captain, their core, Tang Hao, would change his mind.
Yes, Tang Hao, the Tang Hao who had risen to fame because the junior had defeated the senior. Liu Hao discovered that the answer to this question was too simple.
