"You cowardly Leo!" Baozi sternly reprimanded Huang Shaotian in the chat.
Huang Shaotian was furious!
In the team competition, there was no one who would challenge someone in a 1v1 under these circumstances, right? Yet, this fellow was so serious about this matter. What was going on? That malicious intent was unbearable!
Downwind Sword Slash!
The swift sword light represented Huang Shaotian's current mood. Even though he wouldn't lose his judgement because of trash talk, it just so happened that the person spouting trash talk today was the most suitable target to attack. As a result, he didn't feel any pressure at all. His entire mood was perfectly released. This Downwind Sword Slash's timing, angle, and speed had all reached the pinnacle. There were no openings to be found.
Hit!
No one would be able to dodge or block such an attack.
Bright red blood splashed out along with the sword light. Baozi Invader was forced to roll and crawl away from this slash, cutting a sorry figure. But this time, he had rolled far away!
"You have some skill, kid!" Huang Shaotian said in the chat. Pro players were very sensitive to distance. This would determine which skills were most suitable for them. Baozi Invader's sorry figure of rolling and crawling made it seem like he was at a loss for what to do from the Downwind Sword Slash, but in reality, he was borrowing the force of this slash to pull away. His posture was a bit ugly, but he had achieved his goal.
This Downwind Sword Slash, just from the usage of this skill, was truly impeccable. But this wave of attacks was like a banquet. It was made up of many dishes, not just one.
Baozi Invader borrowed the momentum of Downwind Sword Slash to quickly pull away. The melee Blade Master needed to close in again, and the Brawler, who had mid-range attacks, could use this opportunity to counterattack. From this, it could be seen that although this Downwind Sword Slash was impeccable, it wasn't perfect. It guaranteed an accurate hit rate, but it didn't seem to take into account the following skills.
In the end, had Huang Shaotian been too impulsive?
This Downwind Sword Slash had vented Huang Shaotian's gloominess, so it was inevitable that people would think this way. But those who thought this way ignored the fact that this was a team competition, not a 1v1. In this banquet, Huang Shaotian wasn't the only one in charge. Downwind Sword Slash had left an opening in a 1v1, but in a team competition, his teammates could fill in the gaps. The reason why Huang Shaotian had used Downwind Sword Slash was not because he had been impulsive or miscalculated. It was because this was a team battle, and he believed that he had enough people around him to fill in the gaps.
Curses!
Ammo!
When Huang Shaotian's Blade Master was temporarily unable to attack because of the distance, Yu Wenzhou and Zheng Xuan, as long-range attackers, were the first to provide support.
After Downwind Sword Slash, the skills of the two characters followed closely behind, and they even intersected with each other.
Baozi's reaction speed and mechanics were not bad, but the attacks from these two characters once again sealed off all of his dodging space.
A Warlock's Curses and a Spitfire's Ammo.
Two skills. In the end, one had to be hit. Baozi was very decisive. He turned his body and charged towards Bullet Rain's bullets.
Under normal circumstances, of course, he would choose the skill with lower damage, but the problem was that the attacks from these two classes were more painful than the damage.
Swoksaar had used a Bind Skill. It didn't deal any damage, but it would imprison the character.
As for Bullet Rain's side? It was an Ice Bullet with a freezing effect. Although there was a chance of triggering it, the Gunner job classes, other than the Launcher who could take down a crater with one shot, all used continuous shots to attack their opponents. The Spitfire's Ice Bullet skill could be considered a buff skill. When it was used, the action was to change the magazine. After changing the magazine, normal bullets would become Ice Bullets. Under the effects of the class advancement skill Ammo Expansion, this magazine had as many as 20 Ice Bullets.
If the Freeze effect of one bullet had a chance of triggering, then it would be very difficult to not trigger it with 20 consecutive bullets. Under the circumstances where all of the attacks hit, the Complete Freeze effect would often occur.
At this moment, the barrage of bullets arrived. Baozi charged towards this side. In an instant, he was hit several times. The Freeze effect triggered, and his movements immediately slowed down. However, in the end, he wasn't completely frozen. This was also why he chose to charge towards this side instead of Swoksaar's Bind Skill. Being slower was better than not being able to move at all.
However, how could Team Blue Rain not have thought of such a simple logic? When Yu Wenzhou and Zheng Xuan launched their pincer attack, they had already predicted that Baozi would charge towards the side covered by the Ice Bullets.
Sword light flashed.
When Troubling Rain used Downwind Sword Slash, Lu Hanwen's Drifting Cloud rushed forward to coordinate with him. In the end, the place where his sword light swept towards was precisely where Bullet Rain's Ice Bullet was pointing at. Team Blue Rain's attack wasn't launched by one person, but by all four of them. They attacked Baozi in a well-arranged pattern.
However, Blue Rain had four people, and Happy wasn't the only one who attacked Baozi. Yu Wenzhou didn't relax his focus on Happy's other four when they focused their attacks. Su Mucheng's Dancing Rain covered the entire battlefield, providing support at the first moment. And her judgment seemed to be in sync with Blue Rain's. Her artillery fire covered the area where Drifting Cloud was charging towards.
Precise prediction.
Prediction of Team Blue Rain's coordination, prediction of Blue Rain's player awareness.
Su Mucheng's attack and Lu Hanwen's attack arrived at practically the same time, except that Su Mucheng's target was Lu Hanwen's Drifting Cloud.
Boom!
The shockwave from the explosion rolled, and Drifting Cloud's sword light was immediately deflected. All of this happened so quickly, in just a few seconds. It was as if everyone had rehearsed it beforehand, extremely precise. Drifting Cloud arrived, artillery fire arrived, leaving no room for Lu Hanwen to dodge.
An opening!
Drifting Cloud's attack was broken by Dancing Rain's attack, and an opening immediately appeared in front of Baozi's attack. However, Yu Wenzhou, who was calmly paying attention to the entire battlefield, had predicted that Drifting Cloud's attack would be broken when he noticed Dancing Rain's attack. Swoksaar cast a curse to fill in this opening ahead of time.
Claw of Darkness!
A black claw exuding the power of the demonic world drilled out of thin air, clawing at Baozi's Invasion. This attack was also a predictive attack. A prediction of the opponent's movements.
Unfortunately, Yu Wenzhou's predicted opponent was Baozi.
The Claw of Darkness swiped down, and the power of the demonic world bloomed like a flower. But what about Baozi's Invasion?
Baozi's Invasion rolled, and actually rolled back to his previous position.
The so-called opening was a direction where he could receive the cover of Dancing Rain's artillery fire, and continue to escape Blue Rain's attack range. But not only did Baozi not walk in this direction, he actually retreated to his previous position of being surrounded.
Had he also predicted Swoksaar's attack?
People who liked to think deeply about problems would inevitably think this way. And even those familiar with Baozi weren't sure how Baozi had come to this sudden realization.
"It's probably because it's more convenient this way?" Happy's players, who hadn't gone on stage, guessed.
But even though this was an unexpected move, other than dodging Swoksaar's Claw of Darkness, there wasn't anything else that stood out about it.
Baozi's Invasion's Frozen status hadn't been removed yet. Being hit by a Frozen attack while in Frozen status would greatly increase the chance of being completely Frozen. Bullet Rain's 20 Ice Bullets hadn't even finished yet. Baozi's Invasion's retreat to his original position allowed Zheng Xuan's shooting to become incomparably smooth, and the Ice Bullets chased after him.
It was just a little bit of a surprise …
Even Yu Wenzhou thought so too. Being unexpected didn't necessarily mean that he would be able to seize the initiative. If this sword slashed down, and the opponent didn't dodge at all, that would be very unexpected, but could it be said that the person being slashed would have the upper hand?
Baozi's Invasion, apart from dodging the Claw of Darkness, was an incredibly terrible move.
However, Bullet Rain's bullets were all intercepted midway.
Prediction, another prediction.
And this time, the person who made such a precise prediction was Ye Xiu.
The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella opened up, and the Ice Bullets were all intercepted. In front of Baozi, a bright path suddenly appeared.
This time, Steamed Bun Invasion didn't jump away. He controlled Steamed Bun Invasion to charge towards the main road. Baozi's Invasion, still in Frozen status, seemed to move in slow motion. It looked quite funny. But with the cover of his teammates, he was able to move forward resolutely. Lord Grim helped him intercept Bullet Rain's attacks. Su Mucheng's Dancing Rain fired a Firing Line around him, making it extremely difficult for Huang Shaotian and Lu Hanwen's Blade Masters to catch up to him.
A suicidal escape, but in the end, there was a turning point. Why?
Yu Wenzhou's view fell on Lord Grim.
He had never understood why Happy would use a player like Baozi, who wasn't very reliable, in such an important match. But now, he somewhat understood the reason.
The reason was very simple. It was because of Ye Xiu's existence.
Even though he couldn't predict Baozi's movements, his experience and awareness allowed him to do his best to help Baozi fill in the gaps.
Perhaps this would become a miraculous move, or perhaps he would just barely be able to keep the situation under control. However, Baozi was a ticking time bomb. Happy had a bomb disposal expert, but what about Blue Rain? Did they have anyone who could deal with the danger that Baozi could bring at any time?
Ye Xiu's experience and awareness of all classes wasn't something that everyone had.
Baozi was a player who easily exposed openings, but Happy had consciously taken advantage of this point. With this guy's unpredictable control of the pace of the match, who would ultimately control the pace of the match?
In Yu Wenzhou's mind, behind Baozi's invasion, Lord Grim and Ye Xiu's incomparably clear silhouettes appeared.
Was this another plan to beat them at their own game?
