Misty Rain and Royal Style's battle was drawing closer. It seemed like these two guilds were planning on faking a battle to numb Happy, then using the opportunity to close in and surround him. Unfortunately, Ye Xiu's numbness was gone, so he could guess their intentions. Of course, he wouldn't just sit there and wait for death.
Happy was sandwiched between three guilds, so he couldn't be any more passive. If Ye Xiu were Tyranny's people and saw through Misty Rain and Royal Style's intentions, he definitely wouldn't hesitate to join hands with them. A 3v1 would take care of Happy first.
What should I do?
Ye Xiu's brain was thinking at high speed. At the same time, he shifted his view to observe the situation. He suddenly discovered that Tyranny's five characters seemed to be retreating after discovering the battle ahead.
Retreat first? Then turn around and take advantage of the situation?
Too naive! Right now, they were right under Happy's nose. How could Happy allow them to sit back and watch? Right now, their actions would only push them into Happy's situation: being suppressed by the other guilds.
How could Tyranny and the other old foxes not understand such a simple logic?
In that instant, a possibility appeared in Ye Xiu's mind: these guys, don't tell me they still haven't figured out the situation in this Ghost Lair dungeon?
Because of this, Tyranny didn't know what the other teams were supposed to do in the dungeon, so they were still like before when they met Happy. They were more willing to retreat because they hadn't found a reason to fight yet.
Ye Xiu could only express his regret, even though it was a regret that made him burst with joy. Something like luck was really hard to explain. After obtaining the shards, the situation in Ghost Lair was clear at a glance. Happy, Wind Howl, Royal Style, and Misty Rain were clearly aware of this, which meant that all four guilds had obtained a shard. However, Tyranny … It seemed that they were very unlucky as they had yet to encounter a mini BOSS to obtain the fragment. Therefore, they were still clueless about the situation of this dungeon.
"Why are Misty rain and Royal Style fighting?!" Ye Xiu seized the opportunity, playing dumb while probing Tyranny and the others. That being said, even Mo Fan, Tang Rou, Bao Zi, and Mo Fan were not as experienced in battles, thus they would not be able to react in time. Ye Xiu quickly reminded them in the channel, just in case they were exposed.
"I'm not sure," Zhang Xinjie replied from Tyranny's side.
"There must be a special reason," Ye Xiu said.
"Of course," Zhang Jiale said.
"Retreat first. Hurry up," Ye Xiu shouted.
As expected, Tyranny and the others retreated without hesitation. It seemed that this was indeed their plan from the start. Ye Xiu let out a long sigh. They were too lucky! Happy that they had successfully become as clueless as Tyranny, they could temporarily hide together with them.
The two teams of ten left together in the opposite direction, quickly distancing themselves from the battle between Royal Style and Misty rain.
"Let them fight first, then we …" Ye Xiu sent a cheerful emoji.
"Despicable!" Zhang Jiale said.
"Wretched!" Lin Jingyan said.
"You guys aren't going?" Ye Xiu asked.
Tyranny and the others were all silent. This question was not easy to answer. How could they not go! They still had not figured out what this dungeon was all about. The battle between Misty rain and Royal Style should give them an answer. However, if they showed up now, it would be hard to avoid trouble. Thus, waiting for the other side to deal with the aftermath was indeed the best solution.
Thus, Tyranny simply avoided answering Ye Xiu's question.
"Why does it seem like they're still heading this way? How are these two teams fighting?" Lin Jingyan asked as he listened to the sounds of battle.
"Could it be that they've discovered us?" Ye Xiu pretended to say.
In reality, he knew very well that this was precisely because the other two teams had not discovered them. Royal Style and Misty rain received Fang Rui's message and knew where Happy was waiting for an opportunity. Thus, they pretended to be fighting fiercely and inadvertently approached, preparing to catch Happy off guard. However, when the two teams arrived, there was no sign of Happy at all.
Was Fang Rui lying?
Although this guy was very wretched, Misty rain and Royal Style missed. This kind of lie was meaningless. Thus, they could conclude that Fang Rui's final message was true.
Then there was only one explanation: Happy had discovered their intentions and avoided them.
This made the two teams uncomfortable.
Happy had avoided them, but would he completely avoid them? Knowing that these two teams would fight sooner or later, would he just keep an eye on them and wait for an opportunity? The two teams couldn't make up their minds. Without any new orders, the team members could only continue to pretend to fight. When they finally reached the hiding spot that Fang Rui had provided for Happy, the two teams looked at each other. Happy's path seemed to be the only one.
The two teams discussed. In this situation where they weren't sure if Happy would be there, they couldn't fight peacefully. However, at this point, there was no point in pretending to fight anymore. The two teams stopped attacking each other and rushed over together.
"Huh? They stopped?"
The sounds of battle suddenly stopped, startling Tyranny and the others.
"They're done? That shouldn't be! " Zhang Jiale said. Just before, there were sound effects of all sorts of skills. There were clearly quite a few characters alive. Could it be that one wave of focus fire killed all of the team's characters? That didn't make sense.
"They discovered us and chased after us!" Ye Xiu said.
"Who ran so slowly that they were spotted?" Lin Jingyan said. Tyranny was still in the dark!
"What's with the nonsense? What do we do? Keep dodging or? "Ye Xiu said.
"We'll have to fight sooner or later." Tyranny's captain, Han Wenqing, expressed his stance. Even though they didn't know the purpose of the battle, since Misty Rain and Royal Style were fighting, then they probably couldn't avoid this arrangement. Since they had to fight sooner or later, for Tyranny, retreating wasn't their style.
"If that's the case, then let's attack together. While they're distracted!" Ye Xiu shouted.
Tyranny and the others heard this and felt that it made sense. Since they were going to fight, then they might as well seize this opportunity and fight!
As a result, the ten characters turned around at the same time and suddenly turned around. Royal Style and Misty Rain also chased after them. The two sides clashed. Happy and Tyranny's momentum was like a rainbow, while Royal Style and Misty Rain were instantly stunned.
"Crap! It's a trap! "
This was what the two teams thought at the same time.
They had clearly chased after Happy, so why did Tyranny suddenly appear? Originally, they had planned to fight ten against five, which made the two teams feel no pressure at all. But now, it was ten against ten. It was so sudden, and they had to put in a lot of effort … … Even if that wasn't considered, just look at the other side's current lineup.
Ye Xiu, Su Mucheng, Han Wenqing, Lin Jingyan, Zhang Jiale, Zhang Xinjie … …
What kind of lineup was this? It was practically enough to make people cry, okay? In comparison, Royal Style and Misty Rain, who weren't considered weak among pro teams, suddenly became weak.
Could they even fight?
The two teams were still fearful of the other side's lineup, but Happy and Tyranny paid attention to speed. They didn't even greet each other and directly opened fire. Su Mucheng's Dancing Rain fired a Stinger into the air, and the small shells exploded and fell down like raindrops. On the left, Tang Rou's Han Yanrou directly used Dragon Breaks the Ranks to open up a path. On the right, Zhang Jiale's Dazzling Hundred Blossoms first used light and shadow to create a path, and then Han Wenqing's Desert Dust disappeared. When he came out again, he directly used Ferocious Tiger Flurry to sweep through Royal Style and Misty Rain's ranks.
Happy and Tyranny's teamwork was too fierce, too fast, too fierce. Royal Style and Misty Rain, who originally thought that they had the initiative, couldn't find the rhythm for a long time.
At this moment, Ye Xiu's Lord Grim also charged into the fray, but his vision wasn't locked onto his target. Instead, he constantly looked around, observing the entire situation. In this kind of passive situation, Ye Xiu believed that it would be easier to find out which character had the shard. This was definitely the focus of the two teams' adjustments.
Soon, Ye Xiu had already seen through the clues.
Even though they had been caught off guard, they were still pro teams, after all. There was order amidst the chaos. Misty Rain's side was doing their best to pull away from the battle. The three Sharpshooters and Chu Yunxiu's Windy City's Misty Rain were constantly retreating. The three Sharpshooters formed a crossfire, clearly intending to protect Windy City's Misty Rain. As for Royal Style, they didn't make such a targeted change, but they still placed great importance on protecting their healer Gentle Angel.
The answer was already obvious. And this point was a clue in Ye Xiu's eyes. At least Tyranny … Unfortunately, they still didn't know about the shard. From their point of view, Royal Style protecting their healer was a very normal and reasonable move. And Misty Rain's Sharpshooters covering for Windy City's Misty Rain wasn't out of the ordinary. Sharpshooters were much more mobile than Elementalists. In this type of retreat, the Sharpshooters naturally had to take care of the Elementalists more.
Ye Xiu made his judgment and immediately notified his five teammates in the team chat. However, they didn't make any tactical adjustments. They continued to coordinate with Tyranny, aiming to annihilate the opponent's entire army. Apart from this, they also increased the protection of their two key targets.
Without a healer, Misty Rain's current situation was much more dangerous than Royal Style's. Moreover, with twenty people fighting in a chaotic battle, their long-ranged attackers didn't have enough space to maintain their distance and move around. Ye Xiu saw that they were planning to retreat, so he immediately ordered Happy to go around and cut off their retreat. At the same time, he yelled at Tyranny to not let any of them slip through the net.
These words angered Misty Rain and Royal Style.
It was true that they were currently at a disadvantage, but up until now, not a single character had fallen. The battle could only be said to be in a stalemate. It wasn't clear who would win or lose, right?
Fish that slipped through the net? What fish that slipped through the net? Who was the net and who was the fish?
Their dissatisfaction with Ye Xiu's choice of words boosted the morale of the two guilds. Many of their players performed above their usual standards, stabilizing the situation.
"Can you shut up!" Tyranny was furious. This trash talk had the opposite effect! Misty Rain and Royal Style were originally hesitant in their disadvantageous situation. They didn't know whether to advance or retreat, but with Ye Xiu's words, they both had the thought of fighting to the death. This was because the two guilds knew that Wind Howl was finished. Now, it was a battle between the four guilds. Just relying on this battle to determine the outcome of the battle would be rather straightforward.
With this thought in mind, the two guilds had the intention to counterattack. Their players performed above their usual standards, causing a small explosion. In the end, in this change of pace, the two guilds both let down their guard against the characters that they had originally focused on.
Cloud Grasping Fist!
At this moment, Ye Xiu sinisterly unleashed his ultimate move.
