Jiang Botao was very happy that he hadn't made any extra choices this time. He was very happy that Ye Xiu and Baozi only had one path left.
Dodge! Protecting their characters from the damage of Nebula Wave Slash was already the greatest reward they could achieve. Trying to break through Nebula Wave Slash to interrupt the focused attacks? Impossible, because they didn't have enough time. Samsara was currently focusing their attacks. Soft Mist's health was dropping every second, every half a second, and even shorter. Her health was dropping lower and lower.
Happy that they only had one chance to find a path, but in the end, they failed. They could try again, but Han Yanrou probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long enough for them to try again.
Get out of my way!
Jiang Botao stared at Lord Grim and Baozi. He didn't relax in the slightest. After killing Han Yanrou, the attacks would immediately focus on these two.
Who should I kill first?
Jiang Botao observed the movements of the two characters, but then he discovered something strange sneaking into his field of view.
What was it?
Something had floated into Han Yanrou's group, which was protected by his Nebula Wave Slash.
Grenade?
Jiang Botao's pupils suddenly contracted. He didn't have time to think. Without hesitation, a sliver of Nebula Wave Slash sliced towards the grenade.
The grenade exploded. The sound wasn't loud, and the light didn't seem to be very bright, but a shockwave seemed to spread outwards.
Implosion Grenade!
Cloud Piercer, One Autumn Spear, Cruel Silence. No matter how strong they were, they were blown away and pushed back.
Jiang Botao's heart went cold. He turned his camera and quickly saw Dancing Rain. She was very close, much closer than her previous position.
Ye Xiu and Baozi had failed to break through Nebula Wave Slash. They had failed to find a path because Jiang Botao had noticed their intentions. But what he didn't realize was that the path didn't end there. It continued to extend from Baozi to Ye Xiu and finally to Su Mucheng...
By attracting their attention and creating an opening, Su Mucheng had the opportunity to throw the Burst Grenade through the Nebula Wave Slash.
No, not only that …
He wasn't the only one who hadn't noticed this grenade. The other four on Samsara hadn't noticed it either.
His attention had been drawn away by Ye Xiu and Baozi. Because of their intentions, an opening had appeared in his Nebula Wave Slash.
But what about Samsara's other three?
It was Tang Rou and Su Mucheng.
Han Yanrou's struggle against the focus fire and Dancing Rain's support from afar weren't just to create a way out of the encirclement. From the very beginning, this had been their goal. They squeezed in on Samsara's three players.
This sort of cover …
It was a classic tactic used by One Leaf Of Autumn and Dancing Rain. It was used by all teams as a textbook example of how to coordinate between a close-ranged and long-ranged character.
This tactic was very well hidden. The close-ranged characters in the middle of the battle had no way of noticing it. As for Jiang Botao, who had a certain distance, most of his attention had been attracted by Ye Xiu and Baozi.
"That's why it's never a good thing for a Sharpshooter to get too close."
If Zhou Zekai's Cloud Piercer was a long-ranged character, this tactic wouldn't have been able to escape his notice. As Ye Xiu spoke in the chat, he had Lord Grim rush out towards Cloud Piercer.
Cloud Piercer didn't stop attacking even after being pushed back by the Burst Grenade. He was still attacking Han Yanrou, trying to lower her health even further. In the end, this wave of focus fire wasn't able to kill Han Yanrou, but the gains weren't small. Han Yanrou only had 28% of her health left. She was the player with the lowest health on the battlefield.
Another wave of attacks might be able to kill her.
A few attacks towards Han Yanrou could easily tie down Happy.
The following attacks should focus more on Han Yanrou.
These were all very logical thoughts. This was the advantage of having more health. This was the burden and pressure of having less health. Without a healer, this advantage was obvious. Lord Grim's healing wouldn't be able to change this.
The advantage was still there, and it was very clear.
That was what everyone thought. But it was only for a second.
Because the character with the lowest health was Han Yanrou, and the player for this character was Tang Rou.
That girl who had dared to call for a 1v3 when she had just entered the Alliance.
That girl who hadn't compromised despite being condemned by everyone.
That girl who hadn't had enough of the 1v3 in the finals.
Low health? That counted as a problem?
Lord Grim rushed towards Cloud Piercer. Han Yanrou also rushed towards Cloud Piercer, even more fiercely than Lord Grim. The Implosion Grenade had knocked away the three Samsara characters, but it couldn't knock away the Nebula Wave Slash. Han Yanrou was actually still within the range of the Nebula Wave Slash, but as soon as there was no one around to restrict her, she rushed out. Her speed was almost faster than Cloud Piercer's rebounding speed. Cloud Piercer was still shooting at her, but she didn't retreat. The Nebula Wave Slash was still attacking her, but she didn't dodge.
Without the shackles on her, she rushed forward. Her goal was to attack, and she rushed forward without hesitation.
This decisiveness allowed her to take less damage from Cloud Piercer's attacks. This decisiveness allowed her to escape from the Nebula Wave Slash as quickly as possible.
Attack, attack, attack!
Attack in place of defense?
It wasn't that complicated. Because she was still alive, she had to attack.
As long as she didn't die, the battle wouldn't stop. Only by attacking could she be considered a battle, because only by attacking could she obtain victory.
Draconic Crusher!
Han Yanrou brandished the spear in her hands. The fire-type Dancing Fire Flowing Flame seemed to burn the air red.
Tang Rou understood the current situation very well. She also understood the situation that her Han Yanrou was facing. In order to ensure that they weren't at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, she should exercise more restraint, be more on guard, and fight under the protection of her teammates.
Most teams, most players, would do this in a situation like this, especially in such a crucial match.
But Tang Rou wasn't like this. Her personality was very strong. She didn't like to be careful, and she wasn't good at being protected. To have her compete in this kind of situation wasn't good news for Happy. It was more like she was adding to the chaos. Tang Rou would truly become a burden.
Tang Rou knew this, and so did the team.
As a result, Han Yanrou rushed forward and attacked.
Ye Xiu's Lord Grim quickly coordinated with her.
Their target was Cloud Piercer. The two didn't hesitate at all to find the same target.
Because this long-ranged attacker was the only one who could continuously damage Han Yanrou. They needed to hurry up and restrain him. And because he was the strongest, Tang Rou always liked to fight the strongest.
Draconic Crusher came crashing down!
Cloud Piercer rolled to dodge, but was immediately blocked by Lord Grim's attacks.
There's an opening in the middle. Charge forward!
Just as this thought flashed through Zhou Zekai's mind, Baozi rushed in front of Cloud Piercer.
Baozi didn't have as clear a plan as Ye Xiu or Tang Rou, but he followed his boss. Wherever his boss attacked, he would attack. Baozi's willpower was top-notch. As a result, when they focused their fire on Cloud Piercer, Baozi wasn't much slower. Ye Xiu was fast, so was he.
Powerful Knee Strike!
Baozi's Invasion arrived in front of Cloud Piercer in the blink of an eye. The opening was blocked. Zhou Zekai could only have Cloud Piercer quickly roll back to dodge this attack. A grenade seemed to have accidentally fallen to the ground.
Boom!
The grenade exploded. Baozi jumped back. Lord Grim dodged to the left. Han Yanrou dodged to the right.
Lord Grim's Sword Draw and Han Yanrou's Tyrant's Destruction didn't stop there. The two attacks intersected.
Front, left, right, he couldn't. Cloud Piercer could only continue to retreat.
Boom!
Another grenade exploded.
When his Cloud Piercer "accidentally" dropped a grenade, Ye Xiu's Lord Grim also accidentally dropped a grenade. The timing was just right.
Cloud Piercer was pushed forward by the shockwave of the explosion. Even then, the two guns in his hands were still firing bullets at the two characters pincer attacking him from the left and right.
The two characters dodged and attacked again. This time, the front, back, left, and right were completely sealed off. Cloud Piercer was sandwiched in the middle. Seeing Baozi's Invasion, the one who acted the most recklessly rushed forward and grabbed Cloud Piercer by the throat.
Strangle!
With his defense down by 50%, this was the perfect opportunity to deal damage. Dancing Rain's artillery shells landed.
Amidst the explosion, a cold light flashed. Samsara's reinforcements had still come. Cruel Silence had rushed into the fray. He followed up with a "Rend", a Level 75 skill that chopped towards Han Yanrou. Empty Waves' Fire Wave Slash also swept towards her.
Regardless of Tang Rou's attitude, whether she fought or retreated, Samsara still targeted her, who had the least health, as their first target.
Tang Rou obviously wasn't afraid. If one came, she'd fight one. If two came, she'd fight two. It didn't matter how much health she had. Right now, she didn't have the time to think too much.
Dragon Breaks the Ranks!
At close range, Han Yanrou directly used this skill. She collided with Cruel Silence's Rend, threw aside Fire Wave Slash, and rushed towards Cloud Piercer.
Cloud Piercer dodged, Thunder Snipe, super close range. He wanted to hit Han Yanrou's head.
Before the gun could fire, the muzzle of the gun had already tilted to the side. Han Yanrou's spear swept towards him.
Zhou Zekai was astonished. What kind of awareness and judgement was this?
The awareness to attack first! The awareness to deal the most damage possible!
Tang Rou knew that she would very likely be the next one to leave the stage. She wanted to do as much damage as possible to weaken Samsara before she left.
Samsara's Empty Waves had the least health. He was the easiest target to kill. However, Jiang Botao also knew this. He wasn't as fierce as Tang Rou. What he did was what a low health character should do. He kept his distance and attacked, not pressing too hard.
The current tempo was pretty good. It would be a pity to give up on Empty Waves.
Tang Rou's thoughts were simple. She didn't want to waste even a second. She wanted Han Yanrou's next attack to deal damage.
As a result, she used Dragon Breaks the Ranks, collided with Cruel Silence, and rushed towards Cloud Piercer.
Cloud Piercer dodged. Tang Rou didn't want to waste any more time on Cruel Silence using Dragon Breaks the Ranks. She immediately canceled it and chased after Cloud Piercer.
Zhou Zekai's Cloud Piercer had just pulled out his sniper rifle. Just as he was about to aim, the attack had already arrived …
