Mo Fan had been playing at an extremely slow pace, using close to three minutes to close the distance between them, but now, he suddenly sped up. Step back, turn around, turn around, all of it was extremely smooth. Almost at the same time as the Shadow Clones disappeared, a new attack was launched.
As for Song Xiao?
Song Xiao was still looking around for traces of Deception. Just as he turned around, Deception had already arrived in front of him.
Flame Cut!
Flames leapt about. The humidity in the fog seemed to be boiling. The fiery attack was incomparably fast, directly cutting Receding Tides, who had just turned around.
Boom!
Flames instantly pounced onto Receding Tides, burning him.
One, two, three, four, five …
Following that was a five-part combo. Then, Deception disappeared into the fog.
The audience's hearts, which had just reached a climax, were suspended in midair, unable to move …
This guy, he's doing this again! The audience, who were already familiar with Mo Fan's style, sighed. This sudden burst of speed displayed a high level of skill, but it always disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was dazzling, but short, like fireworks.
"Smoke Flower Style." Pan Lin said. He hadn't come up with this name, but rather a metaphor for Mo Fan's strange playstyle from someone in the Glory forums. After Pan Lin saw it, he felt like it was very fitting. Seeing Mo Fan's performance, he immediately called it out.
"Oh, I've heard of this name before. It's very fitting." Li Yibo laughed.
Two consecutive attacks. The first Shadow Dance had been very beautiful, but Song Xiao's timely and accurate negation was also very outstanding. However, Mo Fan's second combo immediately made Song Xiao feel embarrassed. The five skills formed a beautiful five-part combo. After that, Song Xiao seemed to have recovered, but at this moment, Mo Fan had Deception go into hiding again.
Song Xiao couldn't just sit there and wait for death. He had his Receding Tides chase in the direction Deception had retreated.
But Mo Fan only used a large tree to play hide and seek with Song Xiao, and just like that, he was able to shake him off. Deception once again followed behind Receding Tides. This time, Mo Fan did not rest for long. He launched a new wave of attacks. Song Xiao was flustered by the sudden attack that appeared behind him. However, this time, he was able to defend against Mo Fan's combo. During the third part of the attack, Receding Tides accurately dodged.
But before he could counterattack, Mo Fan saw that his attack had missed and Deception immediately retreated.
"To be honest, Mo Fan is a lot more familiar with the strategy than Song Xiao …" said Pan Lin as he watched the match.
"I don't think there will be much suspense in the outcome of this round. I'm a little worried for Song Xiao now. He had fought with Ye Xiu for a long time in the previous round, so he had expended a lot of energy as well. Now, he's up against Mo Fan, and he's using the same strategy to keep his opponent on guard. Song Xiao … isn't he a little too exhausted in today's match? "Li Yibo asked.
"Ah … that's really …" Pan Lin couldn't find the right words to describe it. Blue Rain had wanted to wear down the Happy Ye Xiu, but not only had he failed, Song Xiao had also had a hard time trying to wear down Ye Xiu. Then, he had encountered Mo Fan, who was using the same strategy. Not only was he going to lose, he might even be affected by the fatigue from the group arena.
"Maybe Song Xiao should give up a little," Pan Lin said.
"But with his temperament, would he?" Li Yibo said.
Pan Lin was silent.
Song Xiao might not be a God, but he was known as Mr. Clutch. In matches, especially important matches, he would often shine and receive the attention of tens of thousands of people. As a result, Song Xiao's pride was definitely on the level of a God.
Now that he was facing the Happy rookie Mo Fan, facing Happy's strategy of wearing them down, if Song Xiao retreated, it would mean that he admitted that their strategy had failed miserably. It would mean that he had given up.
Song Xiao wouldn't give up. It was because he never gave up that he was always able to explode in adversity and become the so-called Mr. Clutch.
Retreat? Give up? Definitely not!
Receding Tides resolutely traversed through the forest. After experiencing such a long battle, Song Xiao was actually still able to raise his spirits. Receding Tides' movements seemed to have become even sharper.
Pu! Boom!
Mo Fan's Deception once again launched a sneak attack, which attracted Song Xiao's powerful counterattack. In the fourth wave of attacks, Receding Tides' surging qi exploded. A Flash Burst completely blew away Mo Fan's wave of attacks.
"Where do you think you're going!"
Song Xiao didn't give in. Receding Tides took advantage of the situation to chase after him. Only by stubbornly sticking to him like this could he break Mo Fan's rhythm of hiding and sneak attacking.
He only had three percent of his health left. Don't retreat. Go forward!
This Happy player called Mo Fan didn't seem to be used to trading. This was an opportunity for him, who only had three percent of his health left. He couldn't miss this last chance. He had to bite down. He had to bite down!
Spiral Qi Kill!
Receding Tides swung his arm, his qi twisting the air. Because of the fog in the map, the traces of the attack left behind by this skill were very clear. It was as if a pale white dragon was spinning and pouncing forward.
Boom!
The qi exploded, but what was torn to shreds was only a straw dummy.
Substitution Technique!
Song Xiao hurriedly adjusted his character's view, trying to find Deception as soon as possible. But he didn't expect Receding Tides' foot to loosen …
Underground Tunneling Technique!
Deception flew into the air. The Silver weapon in his hand, Ninja Blade Sixteen Leaves, once again looked like a leaf. But this time, it didn't fall. Instead, it danced with the wind. It floated up, bringing with it a splash of blood that sprinkled into the fog.
Down!
Receding Tides' health finally fell to zero. In the end, Song Xiao wasn't able to bite down on Mo Fan.
Scrap picker …
Song Xiao thought about this rookie's background. Ignoring everything else, when it came to running for his life, this guy really wasn't good at it. Song Xiao couldn't help but think of the match against Happy in the regular season. Happy's team had already lost, but in the end, Ye Xiu and this kid had played a crazy game of hide-and-seek with them.
What a troublesome brat!
Song Xiao shook his head. He stood up, left his seat, and walked out of the player booth.
Only Happy's fans in the west stands were cheering. The Blue Rain fans in the stadium had nervous and melancholy written all over their faces.
This was their home game, so they should have the advantage of choosing the map and trying to take the initiative. But now? Blue Rain's strategy on this map wasn't able to do anything to Happy. On the other hand, Happy's Mo Fan was able to take care of Song Xiao like a fish in water.
84 percent.
Deception still had so much health left. Would Blue Rain's next player be able to deal with him?
He was just a rookie, but right now, Team Blue Rain's fans were worried for their team. Mo Fan's strength had already been recognized and feared by everyone.
"Who will Blue Rain send up next?" Pan Lin said.
Song Xiao came down from the stage and returned to Blue Rain's bench dejectedly. He, Mr. Clutch, wasn't clutch today.
"You've worked hard. Hurry up and have a good rest! "But Captain Yu Wenzhou didn't scold him at all. He took the initiative to comfort him.
Blue Rain's players had an omniscient view of the match from the sidelines. They grasped the true situation of the match faster than the live audience or the TV commentators.
Song Xiao fell out of Ye Xiu's Bewitching Formation. Ye Xiu was slacking off, while he was fully focused on using his tenacious defense to wear down Ye Xiu. So from that point on, it was no longer him wearing down Ye Xiu, but Ye Xiu wearing him down.
After that, he was tormented by Mo Fan's delaying strategy. Song Xiao was truly exhausted. But he couldn't relax. The team competition, the more crucial team competition, Blue Rain still needed him. He could only follow his captain's orders and sit to the side to rest and recover his strength for the team competition.
"Let's go!" At this moment, Yu Wenzhou called out to Blue Rain's third player.
Li Yuan, Summoner Eight Notes.
Last round, he had coincidentally met Mo Fan in the group arena, and the other side had won spectacularly. Li Yuan was very satisfied with meeting him again in their home game. He needed revenge from last round.
"Li Yuan, you can do it!" The entire audience stood up and applauded for him. With the bad start, everyone was very worried and anxious about the match.
"Watch me," After Li Yuan high-fived his teammates, he waved at the Blue Rain audience and walked onto the stage.
The match soon began.
Li Yuan finally changed the rhythm of Team Blue Rain's two consecutive players moving strategically. His Eight Notes went straight for the center as soon as the match started.
Mo Fan still went around in a roundabout way, but he used a rather strange route. First, he had Deception move horizontally to the west. After walking a certain distance, he turned north and slightly east, rushing out in a straight line.
"What is Mo Fan trying to do?" Pan Lin asked curiously.
"This … it looks like he calculated the opponent's movement speed and came up with a plan to intercept and kill him," Li Yibo said.
"Intercept and kill him?"
"The route he chose at the start of the match was either to the west or the east, cutting straight for the center. And because of the fog in this map, the angle of the roundabout route can't be too big, or else it would lose its meaning. That's why Mo Fan had his character move tangentially. Most of the opponents cutting straight for the center will go south. The others will go west or east, and their progress will be slower if they go south. Mo Fan's tangential route is probably going down one route, creating two intersections with the center and the east. There are three possibilities. He's grasping all three first, "Li Yibo said.
"If that's the case, then he's grasped them! Will they meet in the center? "Pan Lin looked at the movement of the two characters on the map.
"That'll depend on Li Yuan's judgment," Li Yibo said.
Li Yuan's Eight Notes quickly reached the center of the map. He got Eight Notes to stop and turned to look around.
"If Eight Notes doesn't move, Deception might not be able to reach them," Pan Lin said.
"He can move!" Li Yibo said.
"Not only does he have to move, but he has to move forward," Pan Lin said.
As soon as he said this, Li Yuan's Eight Notes continued to move south. In Pan Lin's eyes, Eight Notes' body seemed to be bleeding.
= = =
Hurry up and sleep! He had to stick to his work and rest schedule!
