Dai Yanqi switched targets to Lord Grim. Fang Xuecai thought that as a long-ranged player, switching targets was faster and more convenient. He didn't need to get close, so it would save him time and make it easier to take care of both sides.
This idea wasn't wrong, and it was also the best way to take care of the balance. But running between both sides would be weaker than focusing on one side. Happy and the others quickly noticed the difference.
Happy, who were the players that would be fighting in the team battle today?
Ye Xiu, Su Mucheng, Fang Rui, Wei Chen, and An Wenyi.
Besides An Wenyi, they were all experienced players. As soon as Thunderclap's balance fell, the three of them scrambled for that fleeting opening.
Thunderclap's players immediately felt a chill in their hearts. In that instant, they felt like they had caught a net full of fish, but when a small hole appeared in the net, all of the fish desperately tried to squeeze into the hole. In just a moment, the hole had been filled up even more, giving them no chance to salvage the situation.
"Hold it in, hold it in!" Fang Xuecai roared.
But Thunderclap's players were powerless. The opening had been exposed, and they couldn't hold it in. Everyone's gazes simultaneously turned towards their captain. If Xiao Shiqin's command hadn't been interrupted, this definitely wouldn't have happened.
How could Xiao Shiqin not feel bitter in his heart? It wasn't that he didn't want to command. Even if there was only a one in a thousand chance, he would definitely give his teammates instructions. But he didn't. He could only watch as their perfect offensive formation collapsed bit by bit due to the lack of accurate command and adjustments. There were too many crucial moments. Xiao Shiqin wanted to give some pointers, but he couldn't. Because he suddenly realized that every time this happened, Ye Xiu's attacks would suddenly become more urgent.
Ye Xiu... wasn't just looking at the opponent in front of him. He was also keeping an eye on the overall situation and making adjustments to his individual attacks based on the situation on the other side. If Xiao Shiqin were to type out a command at this time, then what awaited him would be an all-out attack. Under the violent and swift attacks of the unspecialized, he might not even have the strength to retaliate and be taken away.
If he was alive, at least there would be hope. If he was dead, then he would not be able to give any orders.
In that moment, Xiao Shiqin also hated the Alliance's rule that forbade voice transmissions. He could feel the helplessness and bitterness in Yu Wenzhou's heart.
Fang Xuecai instructed Dai Yanqi to provide support. Xiao Shiqin knew that this decision was not a good one. It could be worse, but there was no other way. If they continued fighting like this, it would be worse. Change could always create something. For example, what if Dai Yanqi suddenly unleashed a burst of power and had a flash of inspiration to multitask and still take care of Zhou Quan?
Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Dai Yanqi had just switched targets. She hadn't even revealed whether or not she would unleash a burst of power. Happy had already broken free from Thunder's attacks. Happy's players were all too experienced and ruthless. They would not miss such a good opportunity.
Was it over?
No!
Not yet.
After Happy broke free from his attacks, Dai Yanqi did not hesitate. Instead, she was even more determined to support Xiao Shiqin.
Very well done!
Xiao Shiqin was very pleased that Dai Yanqi had made such a decision. When it came to tactical decisions, the biggest taboo was to be sloppy. Thunder, who relied on tactics as support, was indeed not an indecisive person.
Piercing Lightning!
A bolt of lightning flashed. The attack landed slightly in front of Lord Grim. This predictive attack clearly had the mentality that even if it didn't hit, it would still obstruct him. As long as he blocked this step, Xiao Shiqin would at least be able to break free from the passive. There would be openings for him to counterattack or give out orders.
However, Lord Grim stubbornly took a step forward.
Endure the damage? The stun from Lightning damage wasn't weak. If he endured it, there would still be openings. But when Lord Grim took a step forward, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella swung to the side. When the Piercing Lightning struck, the umbrella opened with a whoosh.
With a bang, the lightning struck the umbrella. Before it could scatter, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella had already retracted. Or rather, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella had never stopped. This was simply a continuation of the attack towards Life Extinguisher. It was just that when it swung to the side, the umbrella opened and blocked the Piercing Lightning. Life Extinguisher's attack hadn't been interrupted in the slightest.
For a moment, Dai Yanqi was actually frightened by such precise control. She couldn't even execute the follow-up attack that she had prepared. Ye Xiu's response didn't conform to any of her expectations.
Only when she saw her captain's Life Extinguisher continue to roll and dodge on the ground did Dai Yanqi come back to her senses. She hastily controlled her spells to attack. However, Ye Xiu wasn't fighting alone. Happy had already responded to him. Before Luan Sound Dust could cast her spells, the sound of cannons rang out. Su Mucheng's Dancing Rain had already begun to provide support. Not only did she interrupt Luan Sound Dust's cast, but she also assisted Ye Xiu with her next cannon, blasting it towards Life Extinguisher.
Fang Xuecai's Assassin Demon rushed forward, attempting to tangle with Dancing Rain. However, Su Mucheng had already seen him. Dancing Rain was roaming around with Aerial Fire. No matter how fast the Assassin was, he couldn't catch up in a short amount of time. At this time, how could he have the time to calmly chase after someone? He wasn't like Dancing Rain, who was a Launcher. While roaming around, she could attack and support the entire battlefield. As an Assassin, he had to get close to her to attack. If Dancing Rain led him around, he would become nothing more than air.
Fang Xuecai was helpless. He treated it as a distraction for Su Mucheng. His gaze wandered around the battlefield, but in the end, it locked onto Little Cold Hands.
There's an opening!
Fang Xuecai keenly discovered that Happy had probably been suppressed by being trapped. Now that he had broken free, he was especially wild and unrestrained. He had actually neglected to protect his healer. If he could kill Happy's healer in one go...
Of course, killing him in one go was possible because Fang Xuecai's Demon was an Assassin. He also had Life-Risking Strike. Even if he didn't use it as much as Void's Li Xun, no Assassin would completely abandon Life-Risking Strike. The existence of Life-Risking Strike itself was a type of intimidation. In certain situations, it could also be used for a gamble.
Now... was that moment...
Fang Xuecai continued to have his Demon Talent pretend to chase after Dancing Rain. Suddenly, he moved diagonally as if he had predicted Dancing Rain's movements and was preparing to circle around her. But halfway through, his figure suddenly flashed. He had used the Ninja's Shadow Clone Technique. His real body had already floated towards Little Cold Hands. Immediately afterwards, he used a Shining Cut and suddenly appeared beside Little Cold Hands.
Life-Risking Strike!
Fang Xuecai directly used this high-level skill. Little Cold Hands's health wasn't full. Previously, he had been pressured by Thunder's varied attacks. The result of this pressure was that Happy's health wasn't safe. Every character, including Little Cold Hands, had lost quite a bit of health due to An Wenyi's frantic healing.
That's enough!
Fang Xuecai had calculated everything clearly, and he was very confident in this attack. They had already analyzed An Wenyi's characteristics. His reaction speed and hand speed weren't too outstanding. Fang Xuecai's sneak attack was too sudden. He definitely wouldn't be able to deal with it.
Go die!
Fang Xuecai screamed in his heart. Even if he sacrificed himself afterwards, it wouldn't matter. His character would trade for Happy's healer. No matter what, it wouldn't be a loss.
In the end, just as the dagger was about to pierce through, Fang Xuecai suddenly discovered that Little Cold Hands' Priest robe suddenly fluttered and swept towards him. A pulsating current of air circled around Little Cold Hands' side and cut into Ghost Talent's waist.
Qi Blade!
This was Fang Xuecai's last thought. Demon Talent, who had used Life-Risking Strike, couldn't take any attacks. A single Qi Blade was enough to take his life.
He actually used a Cleric's body as a shield, and so perfectly too. Fang Xuecai's intentions had been seen through long ago! But he dared to use it at the last moment. If the Qi Blade had come a bit later, his dagger would have already stabbed into Little Cold Hands's chest! It's over. Even if the Qi Blade took him away, what could he do?
This person... is too daring, too dirty!
Demon Talent fell with Fang Xuecai's unwillingness. Fang Rui, who had succeeded, was currently shouting in the public chat: "My Golden Right Hand is definitely just one word!"
"This little trick. I don't know who he's trying to fool. Is this even a tactic?" Wei Chen was also mocking.
No one would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Thunderclap would actually lose a player. It was a 4v5. Thunderclap could no longer restrain Happy. Happy immediately found the center of the attack. Everyone focused their attacks on Life Extinguisher, and before Thunderclap's sixth player could arrive, Xiao Shiqin was sent out of the match. Xiao Shiqin's significance to Thunderclap wasn't as simple as just a participant. Without him, Thunderclap's momentum plummeted, and they finally lost to Happy in the team competition.
9 to 1. It was another hearty victory. Everyone was dumbstruck by this reversal. Pan Lin and Li Yibo looked at each other with lingering fear. Especially Li Yibo. He had practically been certain that Thunderclap would win. He had almost said it out loud. But it was this that he didn't say out loud that helped him save his face. As for Pan Lin, he felt a sense of relief. His caution had finally paid off. Happy had finally played a trick.
"The match was very exciting..." Li Yibo said. At this moment, he felt as if he had just escaped death. For a moment, he couldn't find the words to comment on.
"Yes, Thunderclap played very well in the first half of the match. They demonstrated to everyone how Happy's team could cause trouble."
"Happy's response was also very exciting. Yes... they... also demonstrated how to restrain Team Thunder's outstanding tactics." Li Yibo followed up on Pan Lin's words. There was a bit of hesitation in his voice because the method Happy was demonstrating was similar to the method Thunderclap had used to defeat Blue Rain. It was a bit of an unorthodox method, so it shouldn't be recommended.
After Team Blue Rain lost last time, they could complain about the ban on voice chat. But what about Thunderclap? They had suddenly become victims. They had no choice but to suffer in silence. There was nothing they could do!
