Mana regeneration wasn't something that could be done with just one or two pieces of equipment. With the current stats of the equipment, a full set of equipment was required. Even though Lord Grim had a lot of Level 80 Silver equipment, the stats of which couldn't be seen, it was still easy to tell whether or not they had healing or mana regeneration.
Right now, Lord Grim clearly didn't have it.
Bringing an extra set of equipment to a pro match was something that hadn't been done in a long time. The added weight of an extra set of equipment would become a burden in a high-level pro match, let alone the playoffs, the highest level of Glory.
However, Li Yibo didn't dare to use common sense to deduce this.
Ye Xiu's return to the pro scene with Happy had already brought too many surprises. It was possible for him to do anything that went against common sense. Perhaps, Ye Xiu's unspecialized Lord Grim could handle the added weight of this set of equipment?
Li Yibo didn't say anything. Everyone was waiting to see what would happen.
Lu Hanwen left the stage and returned to Blue Rain's bench.
Song Xiao was the first to go onstage and took away 30% of Lord Grim's health. Lu Hanwen's performance this round looked better than Song Xiao's, but in the end, he only took away 26% of Lord Grim's health, which was even worse than Song Xiao's.
From this, it could be seen that the performance and the final stats were two completely different things. Song Xiao looked like he was taking a beating and was swept away by One Wave Rush. However, in this process, he relied on his tenacious defense to wear down Ye Xiu. On the other hand, Lu Hanwen seemed to be more aggressive. He even managed to counterattack and seize an opportunity to attack. However, in the end, he didn't wear down as much as Song Xiao.
However, Team Blue Rain's players didn't care about this problem.
"Not bad," Captain Yu Wenzhou said.
Lu Hanwen nodded. He didn't take these simple words to heart. This was because he knew that their captain would never use polite words to comfort his teammates. Regardless of success or failure, right or wrong, he always spoke very gently and sincerely. There wouldn't be too much stimulation or too much protection.
Therefore, even though he did not win, his performance was correct and recognized. When he thought of this, Lu Hanwen felt even more courageous. He couldn't wait to rush back and fight with Ye Xiu again.
Of course, this was impossible. The only thing Lu Hanwen could do was to shout at Team Blue Rain's third player, Huang Shaotian, who was already walking towards the stage, "Go Huang Shaotian!!"
Huang Shaotian heard it, but he didn't turn around. He just waved his right hand and raised his index and middle fingers, making a victory "V" shape.
"Ah, Team Blue Rain already sent out Huang Shaotian as their third player!" Pan Lin said.
In the five-man group arena of the playoffs, it wasn't enough to just win the final match. The key was to win more points. Therefore, the more mainstream view was that the ace player should be sent out as the third or fourth player. They should strive to win in these two positions. That way, they could at least win two or three points. If they were sent out as the fifth player, then even if they won the overall match, they would only win one point. A single point would have a much smaller impact on the team battle. It was rare for a team battle to end with only one person alive.
"However, the current situation should be very disadvantageous for Blue Rain," Li Yibo said. Even with a 1v2 lead, Li Yibo's attitude was very cautious. It could be seen how cautious he was.
Ye Xiu's Lord Grim still had 44% of his health, but more importantly, he only had 11% mana left. This bit of mana definitely wasn't enough to kill an opponent like Huang Shaotian. What would Ye Xiu do? Did he bring equipment, or did he use a skill like Hope Prayer?
However, even with Hope Prayer, with Lord Grim's low level skills and intelligence, his mana recovery would only be around 10%. 21%, that probably still wasn't enough to deal with Huang Shaotian, right?
However, Ye Xiu had already defeated two opponents. At this point, no one had high expectations for him anymore. In this match, no matter how much health Huang Shaotian lost, it was still a victory in everyone's eyes.
Huang Shaotian entered the stage, took his seat, and loaded his character. Soon, the third round of the group arena began.
"You actually came up so quickly. You must be under a lot of pressure to face us, right?" As soon as the match began, Ye Xiu started talking in the chat. The audience looked and saw Lord Grim raise his Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. His body was enveloped in blue light. Chanting runes flew everywhere. Sure enough, he had started using Hope Prayer. However, no mana recovery equipment appeared. It looked like even Ye Xiu wouldn't be able to carry such a heavy burden in the playoffs.
"I don't have much mana left. You picked up that wallet pretty easily!" Ye Xiu continued.
"Why aren't you saying anything? I saw that it was you, so I said more. What's wrong with you? Were you muted? Or are you so scared that you're speechless? "It was still Ye Xiu talking. In a short amount of time, Ye Xiu had already sent out three messages, making everyone very hopeful. What was going on? Huang Shaotian didn't say anything, while Ye Xiu kept chattering. Did these two exchange souls or something?
"F * ck, you're so annoying!"
Just as everyone was puzzled, Huang Shaotian finally exploded.
"Who wants to talk to you? We're enemies right now. Enemies! Do you understand? "
"You were very arrogant when you knocked out the two of us! Are you trying to get mana back or are you trying to use Hope Prayer? If you have any dirty tricks up your sleeves, then bring it on! "
In the blink of an eye, Huang Shaotian had already replied three times in a row. In this aspect, he truly surpassed Ye Xiu.
"Oh, that's more like it. If you don't shout, the entire atmosphere of the match won't be right," Ye Xiu said.
"Atmosphere my ass. Even if you play tricks, you won't have much mana left. Stop wasting time. Hurry up and come out to die!" Huang Shaotian yelled.
"Don't be in such a hurry. As you wish, I'm recovering mana!" Ye Xiu said.
"As expected, you're dirty and despicable," Huang Shaotian said.
"Hehe, you're jealous, aren't you?" Ye Xiu retorted.
The casting time for Hope Prayer was long and the casting time for the skill was also long, so Ye Xiu had cast the skill from the start. Huang Shaotian had guessed that Ye Xiu would be like this, so as soon as the match started, Troubling Rain rushed over without any fear.
While the two of them were busy with their work, they were still chatting in the channel. Everyone who saw this was stunned. No matter what, this was the playoffs! How nervous was this? Who would chat like this in the previous two rounds? Speaking of which, Ye Xiu really was worthy of being called a super God. His attitude was really good. He could even chat with Huang Shaotian …
Everyone thought silently, but the two of them were still talking about irrelevant things. Although Hope Prayer was slow, it was still faster than Troubling Rain rushing over. Happy that this arena map wasn't the smallest one. Perhaps it was for this moment.
Finally, Hope Prayer finished casting, and Lord Grim recovered 11% of his mana. He was currently at 22%. With 20% of his mana, Ye Xiu could easily crush a normal player two or three times. But against a pro player, it depended on the situation. Against a strong player like Huang Shaotian, no one had much hope for Ye Xiu. Happy's supporters just hoped that he could whittle away as much of Troubling Rain's health as possible. When Ye Xiu defeated Blue Rain's first player, Song Xiao, there were even people shouting for a 1v5. But now, there weren't any people shouting for a 1v3.
Shouting for a 1v5 sounded like a fantasy. So when people shouted for a 1v5, they knew it was a joke and didn't take it seriously. But now they were shouting for a 1v3? In theory, 22% of mana was enough to defeat a character. But the opponent was Huang Shaotian. If they shouted like that, it would seem very ignorant. The fanatical fans suddenly became rational and didn't shout out inappropriate slogans.
After ending Hope Prayer, Ye Xiu didn't let Lord Grim take the right path. Just like last time, he cut to the right flank. This wasn't unexpected. In a situation where they were at a disadvantage and the opponent was such a strong player, they obviously needed to use some tactics.
Troubling Rain continued to rush forward. Lord Grim circled around the right flank and quickly cut into the middle. Everyone took a look and realized that this was simply a replica of the previous match! Ye Xiu wanted to cut into the opponent's back and launch a sneak attack!
Sure enough, it was as expected.
This time, Ye Xiu had calculated Troubling Rain's movement speed. Lord Grim circled around the right flank and cut in. His rhythm was in sync with Troubling Rain's. This time, of course, it wasn't as coincidental as last time. However, there were enough hiding spots for Lord Grim to ambush.
Roll, slide, these low movement techniques. Not long after, Lord Grim rushed to the side of the road.
But at this time, the live audience could see from Huang Shaotian's perspective that he was looking at Lord Grim's ambush spot.
The TV broadcast was a little slow, but it quickly showed a small image of Huang Shaotian's perspective.
"Ah, it seems like Ye Xiu's ambush spot has been discovered!" Pan Lin shouted.
"Blue Rain already has a good understanding of the map. Plus, Ye Xiu is repeating the same strategy as last time," Li Yibo said.
"Will he directly attack?" Pan Lin shouted. As soon as he finished speaking, Troubling Rain stopped.
Silence.
There was a sudden silence.
Originally, Troubling Rain's footsteps were constantly hitting the ground. Ye Xiu was relying on the sound to determine where he was moving. If he showed his head now, Lord Grim would be directly seen by Huang Shaotian.
But Huang Shaotian suddenly made Troubling Rain stop …
This guy found out!
Ye Xiu immediately thought. Now, he could roughly determine where Troubling Rain's last step was, but it was possible that Huang Shaotian had already made Troubling Rain make small jumps, rolls, slow moves, and other silent movements.
If he couldn't determine the position, he would only be passive if he made a move now. This was definitely not what Ye Xiu wanted.
Ye Xiu instantly sorted out his thoughts and acted decisively.
Slide Kick!
Lord Grim moved low and then rolled to the right twice in succession. Ye Xiu actually made Lord Grim move away in an instant.
