Five minutes.
A 1v1 match lasting five minutes was quite common in the pro scene. But the problem was that this 1v1 match didn't end in five minutes. It had already been five minutes, and it was still the same as it had been at the beginning. The two characters hadn't taken any damage. The bit of health that Swoksaar's Chaotic Rain and Sandstorm Trap had taken away from Lord Grim had long since been healed by Lord Grim's own Healing.
At this moment, the two characters appeared near the coordinates that Ye Xiu had reported, but neither of them revealed themselves.
"Where are you? Come out!" Ye Xiu shouted.
"I'm here, but I don't see you," Yu Wenzhou said.
"Last time, I came out first. This time, it's your turn," Ye Xiu said.
"Which time?"
"What are you pretending for? Last time, I purposely let you hit me. Did you forget?" Ye Xiu said angrily. He made it sound like he hadn't wanted to bait out his opponent's position, but rather had genuinely exposed himself. Even though it had already been five minutes, the audience hadn't forgotten. At that time, Ye Xiu had made Lord Grim shoot behind his back. Was that something he should do just to expose himself?
"Oh." Yu Wenzhou replied. Not long after, he added, "Did you see the curse I just cast?"
"I! Didn't! See! See! Yu Wenzhou, behave yourself!! "Ye Xiu warned his opponent.
Finally, the referee couldn't take it anymore. "Both sides, you've been talking too much nonsense. Please focus on the match!"
The referee's message was in the form of a system announcement. It was just like how in the online game, no matter how strong a player was, they couldn't beat the system. In a pro match, no matter how talented a player was at trash-talking, they wouldn't dare to trash talk the referee. With the referee's shout, the two captains fell silent. Offstage, the players of the two teams looked at each other. Happy on their side, they were more or less used to it. After all, Ye Xiu had led them out of the game's wilderness. They weren't unfamiliar with this kind of nonchalant attitude. But on Blue Rain's side … When had they ever seen their captain talk so much in a match? Because of their captain's hand speed problem, he didn't have the time to gossip in an official match. But today, using this map, he was able to chat to his heart's content.
Actually, when the two of them were talking, they didn't stop playing. No one stood out from the coordinates that Ye Xiu reported. The two of them were some distance away from the coordinates. At this moment, they maintained the same radius and started to rotate. The audience could see clearly that one of them was moving counterclockwise while the other was moving clockwise. It was only a matter of time before they met. It all depended on who had better eyesight in this thick fog to discover them first.
Both sides didn't move very quickly. They paid particular attention to where they landed and didn't want to make the slightest sound.
Just like that, little by little, they got closer, closer, and closer.
All of the audience's hearts immediately jumped up and down.
Commentators Pan Lin and Li Yibo didn't say anything either. The entire Glory world was silent at this moment, as if their voices would affect the judgment of the two players onstage.
On the big screen, the two players' viewpoints were also shown. They kept spinning in the fog, and then, almost at the same time, the two viewpoints froze.
Charge!
Lord Grim immediately charged out. His direction was unusually accurate, precisely where Swoksaar was at this moment. Yu Wenzhou's Swoksaar wasn't so proactive. As soon as Lord Grim took the first step, he turned around and hid behind a tree. The audience, who had been watching from their omniscient view, saw clearly that Swoksaar had been paying special attention to his path the entire time. He had been on guard from the start for this kind of situation where the two sides suddenly met.
Gunshot!
After Charge, Lord Grim immediately fired as he ran. The bullet hit the tree that Swoksaar was hiding behind. But at this moment, Swoksaar was no longer behind the tree. Lord Grim took two steps to the side, but as far as he could see, he still couldn't find Swoksaar's figure. Lord Grim didn't stop. He continued to charge in this direction, tossing out another grenade with all his might as he did so.
Boom!
The sparks from the grenade's explosion were more intense. In this fog, it could also serve as a reflection of the characters' figures. But he still couldn't find Swoksaar.
The Blue Rain home crowd let out a sigh of relief at this moment. Because the coordinates of this area weren't something that Ye Xiu had casually given out. This guy had studied this area thoroughly before, so he was clearly familiar with the terrain.
When they saw him call Yu Wenzhou over, everyone silently cursed him for being treacherous. In the end, Yu Wenzhou didn't refuse and happily went over. Of course, everyone was worried that Yu Wenzhou would fall into Ye Xiu's trap, but now it looked like …
"Haha, this is Blue Rain's home map, after all! It looks like Ye Xiu's few minutes of study still can't compare to Yu Wenzhou's understanding of this map! "Li Yibo said with a laugh.
Yu Wenzhou's response to the sudden collision had been so calm and confident. Swoksaar didn't stop moving one step at a time. The entire audience was on edge as he walked, but in the end, Ye Xiu didn't notice. This really wasn't easy to understand. After a while, the system finally sorted out a simple image. The image showed Lord Grim's movements and changes in perspective, and then Swoksaar's movements, as well as the obstacles he was using as cover. From this simple image, it was very clear that the path that Yu Wenzhou had chosen was in Lord Grim's blind spot. Yu Wenzhou's familiarity with this map was indeed far above Ye Xiu's. With Ye Xiu's ability, he could have discovered many things that could be used in that short moment of study, but to be able to do it as easily as Yu Wenzhou, to be able to make such a successful response without even thinking about it, he probably wasn't at that level yet.
"Amazing! No wonder Yu Wenzhou stood up to challenge Ye Xiu one-on-one, "Li Yibo praised.
"But if this continues, how is he going to beat Ye Xiu?" Pan Lin said.
Although Yu Wenzhou was dodging calmly, he didn't dare to directly clash with Ye Xiu. From this perspective, it really couldn't be said that he had the upper hand. Dodging as soon as he saw the opponent wasn't going to be able to defeat him. He had to organize an effective attack!
"Let's keep watching!" Li Yibo said.
After a series of moves, they still lost Swoksaar. Ye Xiu could only helplessly let Lord Grim stay where he was.
"Hey, you're always dodging. How are we going to fight like this?!" Ye Xiu said in the channel.
The crowd instantly booed. This guy couldn't find Captain Yu, so he started pressuring the referee, hinting that Captain Yu's behavior was inappropriate?
"This is a tactic," Yu Wenzhou replied. It sounded like he was explaining to the referee.
"What a troublesome guy," Ye Xiu said. Lord Grim began shooting randomly again.
"I'm right here! Bring it on! "Ye Xiu shouted.
"No rush," Yu Wenzhou said. He didn't stop playing, but it really didn't seem like he was in a rush. From the moment he let Swoksaar escape Ye Xiu's pursuit, to the moment he turned around to find an angle for a sneak attack, everything seemed so orderly.
Not long after …
"Hey!" Ye Xiu expressed his dissatisfaction. Chaotic Rain again? No new moves? But his response wasn't anything new. He opened his umbrella, crouched down, and used Shadow Clone Technique. But this time, Yu Wenzhou didn't use Hexagram Prison. Chaotic Rain pattered down in the fog of the forest.
This kind of skill couldn't determine a character's specific location. At most, it could only define a range. There was no way to find it. Ye Xiu's Lord Grim could only stand in the forest, staring at the rain.
And then, and then there was no more and then …
Blue Rain's home stadium was booed. This was Blue Rain's beloved captain, Yu Wenzhou, in a match, and it was a one-on-one that hadn't been seen in many years. But in the end, there were boos.
The crowd couldn't take it anymore.
We're already so nervous, and this is what you two are showing us?
The two players on the field were completely unmoved.
The Chaotic Rain skill stopped, and the forest became quiet once more.
Lord Grim suddenly dashed out, using Charge to move.
But the direction …
The audience had an omniscient view, so they immediately knew that the direction wasn't right. But Ye Xiu's controls didn't stop. After Charge, Lord Grim immediately changed directions, using Colliding Stab and another high-speed movement skill. This time, the direction was somewhat close. But it wasn't enough!
After watching their previous encounter, although their eyesight wasn't as good as theirs, many of the attentive audience members had noted down the distance between the two characters. This was probably the limit of their vision in the fog of the forest. Lord Grim's Charge was in the right direction, but the distance that Colliding Stab could cover didn't seem to be enough to enter their field of vision …
Keep moving forward! Many people prayed in their hearts. But after Colliding Stab, Lord Grim changed directions again, Shining Cut …
It was off!
Many people cried out in their hearts.
But those who saw through the trick had their eyes light up.
"Got it!" Li Yibo yelled.
"Ah?"
In the time it took for Pan Lin to say "Ah," Lord Grim's Shining Cut had already flashed past. It wasn't towards Swoksaar's position, but it had passed by Swoksaar's field of vision. This also meant that he also had a chance to see Swoksaar's position in that instant.
"Through high-speed movement, he can expand his field of vision!" Li Yibo explained loudly to the audience.
"Did you notice?" Pan Lin yelled.
Lord Grim's reaction gave him the best answer. Shining Cut was still in motion, but it was already a shadow clone. Lord Grim's real body had already appeared precisely where Swoksaar was.
Boom boom boom!
Three anti-tank missiles flew out, spitting out tongues of flame and spreading out at a wide angle. They didn't aim to injure the enemy, but they needed light to lock onto Swoksaar's figure.
Yu Wenzhou repeated his old trick. He always stood in a prepared position, and with a turn of his body, he hid behind a tree again. But this time, Ye Xiu was prepared. Lord Grim stopped and chanted, and a Goblins appeared beside the tree.
Lord Grim shot forward, and in his field of vision, Swoksaar disappeared again. Yu Wenzhou's use of the forest was truly exquisite. But the Goblins were still in Ye Xiu's field of vision. Lord Grim shot forward, sprinting in the direction that the Goblins had staggered out of.
The audience was dumbfounded. Today was too much knowledge! Was he f * cking using a summoned beast as a hunting dog?
