Ye Xiu's prediction wasn't baseless.
The Launcher's melee combat ability was one of the last of the 24 classes. They were never absent from the "Which class is the weakest in close combat?" polls, and their votes were never low. Currently, they were on par with Summoners.
Now that they were being stepped on by Lord Grim, an unspecialized with numerous low-level skills, no one thought that Ye Xiu's declaration of victory was exaggerated.
"Not necessarily!" But Guo Shao disagreed.
After the end of Punisher, as soon as Lord Grim's foot left, Beckham immediately rolled to get up. But the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella had already transformed into a spear, stabbing forward like a viper.
Clang!
It was actually the sound of metal colliding. This sound was most commonly heard during parries.
As for a Launcher, there was only one skill that could be used to parry an attack.
Pull!
Each of the 24 classes had a knock-up skill that could be learned at birth. The Launcher's skill was this hand cannon Pull. Guo Shao used this throw to parry Lord Grim's Dragon's Teeth.
Beckham took advantage of the momentum to jump up. The cannon shot out, and under the recoil, he quickly retreated.
But Lord Grim had too many low-level skills. Even if the skill that could be used as a fast movement skill was still on cooldown, he still had other options.
Berserker skill: Colliding Stab!
Lord Grim raised his sword and attacked. Beckham, who was sent flying by the Aerial Cannon, couldn't compare to the speed of this skill and was immediately pierced by the tip of the sword. Then, a series of combo attacks followed.
The unspecialized who had beaten Zhang Jiale and defeated Sun Zheping in close combat was now facing a rookie, a Launcher who wasn't good at close combat.
There really wasn't any suspense.
But …
"Not necessarily!" The rookie Guo Shao still hadn't given up.
"Your spirit is commendable!" Ye Xiu praised. "If that's the case, I'll have to be more careful …"
The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella kept changing, and skill after skill piled onto Beckham. Guo Shao was looking for an opportunity, but he couldn't find one. Every possibility of escaping had been completely blocked by Ye Xiu.
"How terrifying." He was still lamenting, and his morale didn't seem to have suffered at all, but at this moment, his Becker had already fallen.
Guo Shao didn't give up, but he didn't find an opportunity either …
Guo Shao walked out of the competitor booth and looked at Ye Xiu on the other side.
"Senior, you're amazing!" Guo Shao shouted and gave him a thumbs up.
"This lunatic, he actually praised his opponent!!" He Ming and the other two were about to jump up as they nervously watched the audience's reaction. As expected, the audience went into an uproar. As for Ye Xiu, he waved at Young Master Guo and left the stage.
Happy won 3-0 in the individual competition.
However, Guo Shao, who had returned to the player area, didn't seem to be affected by the bitter defeat.
"Everyone, do your best!" Even though he had just lost, he was still cheering for his teammates.
"You bastard!" He Ming's face darkened. As the captain, he had to say a few words.
"How can you praise your opponent like that? Aren't you boosting your opponent's morale? Destroying your own team's morale? "He Ming reprimanded.
"Because he's really too good, so I didn't think too much about it," Guo Shao said.
"…" Guo Shao's magnanimity without any excuses made He Ming unable to continue lecturing him.
"Don't do that next time …" He could only say weakly.
They had lost all three rounds of the individual competition …
He Ming and the other two old teammates looked at each other. According to their initial expectations, the first round of the individual competition would be given to Ye Xiu to win, then Wang Ze would defeat Su Mucheng in the second round, and Guo Shao, who was pretty good, would take the lead in the third round. If they played well, they might even have a 2-1 lead. But now, it seemed a little different from what they had expected!
"It's up to you guys in the group arena," Wang Ze said.
He Ming and Shen Jian were going to play in the group arena.
"Why do I feel like Happy's condition doesn't seem to be affected by the magazine!" Shen Jian looked at Happy's seat. Did those guys not read the magazine after they got it?
"Wei Chen, Su Mucheng, and Ye Xiu are all experienced and mature players, so it's not surprising that they've adjusted their mental states well." He Ming pretended to be calm as he said, "Tang Rou will probably play in the group arena, so she'll definitely be affected."
"Maybe she won't play today?" Shen Jian said.
"Uh, then the other young players will more or less leave some openings," He Ming said.
"There's still Fang Rui," Shen Jian said.
"Fang Rui's Qi Master isn't very skilled, so his strength will be reduced," He Ming said.
"Yeah …" Shen Jian nodded. In fact, they had already analyzed these things who knew how many times before the match.
"I'll go first. Jia Xing will be in the middle, and you'll be the guard." He Ming finally announced the lineup. Jia Xing was Miracle's Battle Mage player, and his character was called Prideful Mage.
There was a short break between the individual competition and the group arena, and it quickly passed. Under the prompts of the electronic screen, He Ming stood up and walked onto the stage energetically. Happy's first player wasn't Tang Rou, who had been leading the way, but Fang Rui.
After all, he was an All-Star player, so when he saw that it was Fang Rui, He Ming still felt a bit of pressure.
Relax, he's still in the transition phase. Focus, don't be impatient, he'll definitely have a lot of chances to win.
He Ming muttered to himself as he walked up the stage and entered the contestant area for Miracle. On the other side, Fang Rui also entered his seat. The projection began to slowly display the map for this round in the middle of the arena.
Wuchuan Road was a small, wuxia-esque map. It wasn't a difficult map for Miracle's three player classes, and the maps for the group arena were usually chosen like this.
The two characters quickly spawned at the two ends of Wuchuan Road. In the middle of the map was a wine shop with a large flag outside the door. The scarlet flag had a large "wine" embroidered in gold on it. It fluttered in the wind, looking especially ostentatious. And this wine shop lived up to its ostentatious flag. The wine shop had three large courtyards inside and outside, majestically occupying the center of the map. In terms of area, it took up one-ninth of the map. Outside the wine shop was a desolate, yellow earth. When the wind blew, the sand and dust would turn the sky yellow.
With the wine shop in the middle, the two characters wouldn't meet directly. The wine shop also became a location that could be used to carry out ambushes or sneak attacks. As soon as he remembered that his opponent was the master of playing dirty, Fang Rui, He Ming suddenly felt that the wine shop was filled with countless dangers. However, for this map to be chosen, Miracle's three players couldn't not be familiar with it. And the structure of this map required one to understand was the structure of the wine shop. He Ming controlled his Elementalist, Rullo, to approach the wine shop without rashly. Although the two characters were the same distance from the wine shop, there was a difference in their movement speeds. If the Qi Master wanted to seize this time, after activating Wind Drifting Cloud to increase his speed, he could still sneak into the wine shop before the Elementalist.
Fang Rui would definitely take advantage of this terrain. He Ming was certain of this, so before entering the wine shop, he stopped Rullo's footsteps and clearly thought of the entire wine shop's layout. After organizing his thoughts, He Ming's Elementalist, Rullo, walked in through the side door of the wine shop's large courtyard.
After entering, there was an extremely large courtyard with several long and square tables. The base of the courtyard wall was densely packed with wine shops. However, there wouldn't be any NPCs in PvP maps. This place, which should have been bustling with activity, was completely empty. The atmosphere was a bit strange.
He Ming didn't linger in the courtyard any longer. He controlled Rullo and was about to head deeper when he suddenly heard a "pop" sound.
What was that sound?
He Ming's judgment was quite accurate. He immediately turned his view in the direction of the sound. However, that side was separated by a courtyard wall, so the sound must have come from behind the wall.
Did he really accidentally reveal a flaw? Or was it a trap to lure me in?
He Ming's mind spun quickly. Rullo walked over, but didn't immediately pass through the courtyard. Instead, he stuck close to the wall.
After passing through this door, there was a relatively narrow corridor. He Ming thought of the terrain here and had an idea.
Rullo flashed to the door, waved his staff, and pointed. An Ice Wall was erected in the corridor behind the door. Only then did He Ming let Rullo fly in.
"You're really careful!" Fang Rui's teasing appeared in the channel. In the corridor, Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang was indeed here, but at this moment, he was separated by an Ice Wall that was suddenly cast.
"If that's the case, you won't be able to hit me!" Fang Rui sent an emoji of laughing while pounding the table, as if He Ming's Ice Wall was very retarded.
He Ming was completely unaffected by Fang Rui's trash talk. He was glad that he was cautious. If not, he might have been ambushed by Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang.
"Neither of us can hit each other. I'm leaving!" Fang Rui said as Hai Wuliang turned to leave.
He Ming couldn't tolerate the fact that he had caught a wretched opponent so easily. The Ice Wall could obstruct movement and attack, but it couldn't obstruct an Elementalist's control of Elemental Power.
Rullo raised one of his hands. Numerous Elemental Forces rose from the air and from the ground before finally converging in Rullo's mind. Skill: Full Concentration. After activation, the next spell of an Elemental Mage will definitely be an instant-cast spell.
He then pointed his staff, and the Level 70 Elementalist's ultimate move, Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire, was instantly summoned through the Ice Wall. Fang Rui, who was escaping, saw that the situation wasn't right and hurriedly controlled Hai Wuliang to do a backflip. At least he was only slightly injured. Looking at the front again, the Thunder-Fire Formation had completely sealed off his escape route. Forcefully passing through was definitely illogical. Under the operator's intentional control, forcefully passing through Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire would not only cause damage, but it would also be blocked and imprisoned. In the end, he still wouldn't be able to go anywhere.
"Shameless, I'll fight it out with you!" Fang Rui sent a message. Hai Wuliang turned around, dashed forward, and slammed his palm on the Ice Wall.
Flash Burst!
If the Ice Wall wasn't destroyed, it would exist for quite a long time, much longer than Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire. However, Fang Rui didn't let Hai Wuliang leisurely enjoy the scenery and wait for time. Being sealed in such a small space and letting He Ming cast a few AoE spells, he wouldn't even have the chance to dodge.
The Ice Wall had to be destroyed instantly. Fang Rui didn't hesitate to use this ultimate move.
