"Oh my, the seniors are really …" Dai Yanqi was also dumbstruck. She had originally prepared to defend, but who would have thought that Happy would change targets so decisively? Was the reason just because she had said something? No matter how she thought about it, this kind of reason didn't make sense! But the problem was that it had actually happened. This made Dai Yanqi feel a bit of fear. She couldn't have ruined the team's rhythm, right?
"Focus, guard your positions, set the rhythm!" At this moment, Xiao Shiqin's message came in Team Thunder's team channel. Seeing her captain's words, Dai Yanqi immediately felt as if she had eaten a calming pill. She immediately controlled her Elementalist, Luan Ying Dust, to rush forward.
"Be careful of them changing targets again." Xiao Shiqin followed up with another message.
"Changing targets again?" Dai Yanqi was startled for a moment, but then reacted.
The audience was in an uproar, because as soon as Xiao Shiqin's voice fell, Ye Xiu had already sent a message in Happy's team channel: Turn!
The entire team suddenly turned around. Their target was still Dai Yanqi's Luan Ying Dust. As a result, the change in targets to Xiao Shiqin had only been a tactic to trick him. Unfortunately, this trick had been seen through by Xiao Shiqin. His timely warning prevented Dai Yanqi from cutting too deep. She had originally prepared to use a Teleport, but in the instant she stopped, she saw Happy suddenly turn around and charge towards her.
"How crafty." Dai Yanqi wasn't a chatterbox, but she still liked to chat a bit during a match. As she complained, Luan Ying Dust quickly retreated. Lightning flashed on her staff, and a bolt of lightning shot out. This was the first attack of the team battle.
Lightning spells were very fast, but it wasn't as sudden as a Gunner's bullet. Lightning condensed from Light Elemental Energy. Although it happened in the blink of an eye, it was still a process, leaving a bit of reaction time. Pro players had this bit of time to react, as well as enough distance for them to fully execute their moves. Everything was more than enough.
Phoenix Sound Dust's lightning pierced through Happy's formation without hitting anyone. However, Dai Yanqi activated Full Focus on Phoenix Sound Dust. The Level 75 skill, Firebird, spread its wings and flew out from Phoenix Sound Dust's staff. As the heat wave swept across the grassland, the originally crisp and straight green grass immediately withered. Every single one of them bent down, becoming half the height of their companions.
Compared to the Lightning Penetration, the space covered by the Fire Bird was much larger. Happy, everyone could no longer casually let the spell pass through like before. It was no longer possible to maintain their formation. Happy and the other four split up and dodged to the left and right. The Fire Bird flew past them, and the heat wave it created made their screens blurry.
Behind him, a mechanical sound rang out. They hadn't found Xiao Shiqin, but Xiao Shiqin's Life Extinguisher had taken the initiative to find them. The knee-high grass hid many of the walking machines. Happy's members could only see the grass tremble violently as the machines ran over it, but they didn't know what was hidden underneath the trembling.
Phoenix Sound Dust was retreating, while Life Extinguisher was pressing forward.
However, Phoenix Sound Dust didn't retreat too much, while Life Extinguisher didn't press too hard. They seemed to be purposely leaving some space for Happy. The two long-ranged classes carefully controlled the distance between them, maintaining this space.
The unknown mechanical props coming from the underbrush were getting closer and closer. They were coming from several directions at varying speeds.
Landmine Quake!
Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang suddenly leapt up and slapped the ground with his palms. The Qi Master's normally invisible qi became especially clear because of the grass. A wave of grass spread out in all directions with Hai Wuliang at the center.
Boom boom boom boom!
The crazily trembling grass immediately burst into flames when it came into contact with the wave of grass. In the blink of an eye, smoke rose from the grass. Fang Rui grasped the opportunity. He didn't care what the machines were and destroyed them all with Landmine Quake.
But … this wasn't all.
Xiao Shiqin had used who knew how many self-propelled machines. There were still three trembling tracks on the grass. Perhaps they hadn't arrived yet, or perhaps they were under Xiao Shiqin's control. In any case, they had all avoided Hai Wuliang's Landmine Quake and once again charged forward.
Qi Bullet!
Hai Wuliang punched out towards one of the trembling tracks.
However, the Qi Bullet's flying speed wasn't very good. The machines moved quickly and avoided it.
Bang! Bang!
Lord Grim's Myriad Manifestations Umbrella switched to gun mode and fired two shots. However, under the cover of the grass, no matter how skilled he was, he couldn't be too accurate. After two shots, the trembling tracks were still there.
Ta ta ta ta ta …
A high frequency of gunshots rang out. Su Mucheng saw that Lord Grim's shots weren't hitting, so she simply had Dancing Rain throw out Gatling Gun. A string of bullets flew towards the trembling tracks. Finally, with a bang, it exploded into flames. Su Mucheng didn't stop. Taking advantage of the fact that the skill's duration wasn't over, she immediately swept towards another location. However, Xiao Shiqin was clearly on guard against being wiped out by Happy in one fell swoop. His remaining three attacks put a large amount of distance between them. Even though Su Mucheng quickly turned her gun around, her skill had reached the end of its cooldown. After a few rounds, she was unable to clear out her target.
But …
Ta ta ta ta ta …
Lord Grim's Gatling Gun was thrown out. The attack tracks completely followed Dancing Rain's previous rhythm. If one didn't look at where the bullets were coming from, it would be almost impossible to tell that this was a coordinated attack.
Boom! This path of attack was also destroyed. When Lord Grim turned his gun to the next step, there was still half of the skill's duration left. Bullets quickly swept past, chasing after the mechanical item. Who would have thought that it would never hit. Everyone clearly saw that the bullets had hit the trembling part of the item, but who would have thought that the item would be completely fine!
The mechanical items of a Mechanic did not have as much HP as the summoned beasts of a Summoner. They would break with a single hit, and a single bullet was more than enough to clear them out, not to mention a few consecutive shots. The only explanation was that they did not hit the target. However … the bullets had clearly landed in that position, unless …
By the time Ye Xiu reacted, it was already too late. The trembling tracks had already closed in on them, and suddenly jumped out from the grass.
This wasn't a mechanical item that needed to walk on the ground, but a flying mechanical airdrop. However, Xiao Shiqin had it fly at an extremely low altitude, also hiding under the grass. However, it didn't touch the ground when moving, so Ye Xiu's previous attacks had all missed, because there was a fundamental error in his judgement of the location. At this moment, the mechanical airdrop suddenly flew in front of them. Its big belly opened, and just as it was about to throw the bomb …
Boom!
The mechanical airdrop suddenly exploded in the air, not even having the time to release the bomb. Amidst the black smoke and flames, a white flame could clearly be seen leaping about.
Sacred Fire!
Prediction and seizing the opportunity were An Wenyi's specialties. At the crucial moment, a calm Sacred Fire blocked the mechanical airdrop.
The crowd applauded.
This wave of mechanical attacks only happened in a few short seconds. Happy's entire team worked together to block all the attacks hidden under the grass. It was really too exciting and too beautiful.
"Attention, the opponent's Assassin has disappeared …" Fang Rui suddenly sent a message in the channel.
Fang Xuecai's Assassin, Demon Talent, was originally between Xiao Shiqin's Life Extinguisher and Cheng Tai's Shattering Wind, but at this moment, it had completely disappeared.
Was it crawling in the grass, or was it using the Thief skill Stealth on its weapon to silently move? Ye Xiu's team of five began to search the grassland. No matter what it was, although it was hidden, it would definitely leave traces if it moved. It was just knee-high grass. A Mechanic's mechanical props were hidden quite well, but a living person wouldn't disappear so easily.
Demon Talent temporarily disappeared, but Dai Yanqi and Xiao Shiqin's pincer attack didn't stop. While they were busy cleaning up the mechanical props that Life Extinguisher had sent over, Firebird Whisper took the opportunity to cast two large spells. The lightning and fire AoE spells didn't make any predictions at all, directly throwing them over the heads of Happy's team. From the looks of it, it wasn't to create obstacles for Happy to approach her, but to completely scatter Happy's formation.
With the pincer attack from the front and back, the Assassin disappeared without a trace. Cheng Tai's Shattering Wind was the closest to Happy's team. He continued to wander around. Although he hadn't attacked yet, the pressure he created wasn't small. Happy's team, while dodging the pincer attack, be careful not to send your characters into Shattering Wind's hands. If you were caught by a Grappler, your formation would definitely be broken. Shattering Wind was wandering around, clearly seizing this opportunity. Happy was dodging, but he was also trying to see if there was a chance to swallow Shattering Wind. However, Team Thunder had Xiao Shiqin overseeing it, so his judgement of the tempo of the battle was clear and accurate. Only the audience in the stadium knew how crowded Team Thunder's chat was right now. The frequency of messages was so high that it wasn't any lower than the match against Blue Rain.
Could it be that this guy wanted to use these complicated playstyles to drag down Happy's command?
However, Happy's command was Ye Xiu, not Yu Wenzhou. Regardless of how good or bad his tactics were, in terms of hand speed, Ye Xiu completely crushed Yu Wenzhou. Even Yu Wenzhou's biggest fan could only accept it with tears in his eyes.
Why was this happening? Why did Thunder have to play in such a complicated manner? Xiao Shiqin had a lot of commands, and there were many variations in the movement and attack tempo of each choice. Not only were they listening to Xiao Shiqin's commands, but they were also following this train of thought. This was clearly Thunder's predetermined tempo.
What was this?
"I got it!" Guest commentator Li Yibo suddenly shouted. In the end, his skill level was much higher than the average player's. In the end, he was able to see Thunder's intentions first. However, as soon as he finished shouting, he immediately regretted it. He had exposed himself too much! Why did he have to be so overjoyed? He should have calmly explained Thunder's strategy to everyone. That way, he would have shown his skill level!
Unfortunately, he had already shouted, and Pan Lin had already helped him guide the conversation. "Coach Li, did you see through Thunder's strategy?"
"Hehe, I noticed it a long time ago. Now, I can basically confirm that Thunder is just as I thought," Li Yibo said mysteriously.
"Coach Li, please explain in detail." How could Pan Lin not know about Li Yibo's cunning mind? He disdained him in his mind, but still praised him verbally.
"Thunder's playstyle this match is a bit similar to the one they used against Blue Rain. There are many variations. However, against Blue Rain, they mostly adjusted and changed their tactics. Now, however, they are more focused on the direction of their attacks and the changes in their tempo. "
"Their goal is the same. They are both targeting a specific player from each team. Against Blue Rain, they targeted Blue Rain. If he couldn't give out commands at the right time, Blue Rain might not be able to keep up with Thunder's changes in tactics. Happy for this match, they targeted An Wenyi. Happy healer!" Li Yibo said with certainty.
