This had been premeditated from the very beginning.
After realizing the two's intentions, the pro players immediately grasped the meaning behind their actions.
Su Mucheng had repeatedly pretended to attack Jiang Botao's Empty Waves in order to lure him forward. Against a Launcher, the closer the distance, the safer it would be. Any pro player with close combat skills would have made this choice.
As for Ye Xiu?
Lord Grim had been looking for openings to maneuver in order to lure Zhou Zekai. Zhou Zekai knew where he could get around the cover, so Ye Xiu also knew where he could get behind cover to lure Zhou Zekai's Cloud Piercer to his desired position.
Then, he would rush out, force his way forward, and close in.
In order to give Lord Grim more pressure, Zhou Zekai would naturally have Cloud Piercer retreat to maintain the distance between the two sides.
No one could say that Samsara's response was wrong. If it had been any other player facing the same situation, they would have responded in the same way. No one would have thought that these two had planned this attack.
The instant the mushroom cloud rose, the entire stadium was shocked.
No one had seen Dancing Rain's trigger. By the time they realized it, the Heat-Seeking Missile had already whistled through the air.
Dodge?
It was really just a subconscious instinct when facing an attack. To completely dodge the Heat-Seeking Missile, the trigger was the key. Once the trigger was set, the Heat-Seeking Missile would fall at a speed far faster than a character.
Dodging was the most that could be done. At most, they would be able to avoid the center of the explosion and slightly reduce the damage.
At this moment, Samsara's three players were more focused on attacking.
Their suppression on Dancing Rain would definitely be broken after this attack, and they would be heavily injured. Right now, they had to kill Dancing Rain at all costs.
Dancing Rain's original suppressive position still had an effect in the end. Dancing Rain still didn't have any room to dodge the three's attacks.
The audience couldn't see clearly what was happening inside the mushroom cloud. They could only see the shadows of people moving and the flashing lights of skills. At this moment, Samsara's three players didn't care about crowd control. They all used powerful offensive skills. Then, the health of the four characters rapidly decreased.
Whose life would slide to the end? Whose life would stop sliding?
Everyone's heart was hanging in the air as they looked at the four bloody lines. At this time, whether it was the television broadcast or the big screen in the stadium, the health bars of the four characters were displayed in close-up.
It was cleared!
Out of the four, one of them had already emptied out at the fastest speed.
Jiang Botao's Empty Waves?
After all, he had the lowest HP at 11%, so he shouldn't be able to withstand the Heat-Seeking Missile's attack.
But, no!
The name on the health bar was Dancing Rain. Samsara's all-out focus fire during the explosion of the Heat-Seeking Missile had actually killed Dancing Rain first.
Cloud Piercer and One Leaf Of Autumn's health were still falling. The two of them only had around 30% of their health left. The Heat-Seeking Missile wasn't enough to kill them. As for Jiang Botao's Empty Waves?
Empty Waves' health was the first to stop falling. 0.7%. 0.7% left!
Empty Waves was still alive. In other words, Ye Xiu was facing a 1v3?
He lost.
Countless people had the same thought in their minds. Although Ye Xiu had faced a 1v3 in the last round of the team competition, he had only been protecting himself. It was only because Samsara's three players thought that a 3v1 would be no problem. They would definitely be able to take care of it quickly. That was why he had been able to keep the three of them in check. He hadn't been able to truly control the three of them, let alone defeat them in a 1v3.
And now, he truly needed to defeat the three of them. How could he possibly do that? Everyone thought this. Happy had worked so hard, but in the end, he still couldn't do anything. Everyone couldn't help but feel some regret.
And for Samsara, this was truly fortunate.
After such an unexpected wave of attacks, they were still the ones who had the advantage in the end.
The Best Partners had been disbanded. Happy was only left with Ye Xiu, while Samsara's three strongest players were still there.
We won, right?
At a time like this, it was time to think like this, right?
Jiang Botao, who only had 0.7% of his health left, was the one who felt the most fortunate. He had walked out of the gates of hell. Empty Waves was still alive, thanks to the adjustments he had made when Lord Grim had closed in. At that time, he had been prepared to protect his life. If he stuck close to Dancing Rain, he wouldn't have been afraid. But when Lord Grim closed in, he had to retreat and put some distance between them. In addition, Su Mucheng's Heat-Seeking Missile wouldn't target Empty Waves, who had the lowest health, so in the end, Empty Waves was the one closest to the edge of the explosion. In addition to his plate armor and his reflexive dodging when the missile fell, Empty Waves had taken the least damage.
It's good to be alive. Only by being alive can I enjoy victory!
This was Jiang Botao's true thought at this moment. But it was just a thought. He didn't even have time to express his emotions before Empty Waves' health jumped again.
Reset!
Empty Waves died.
Jiang Botao was dumbstruck. He was certain that the Heat-Seeking Missile's explosion damage had stopped. This was an instant burst skill, not a continuous damage skill.
What is this?
Jiang Botao's camera floated up. In the gray screen, Jiang Botao saw a shuriken sticking out of Empty Waves' chest.
Finishing blow …
The Heat-Seeking Missile hadn't killed him, but Ye Xiu had finished him off.
This attack had come so quickly, less than a second after the Heat-Seeking Missile's damage. Even if Jiang Botao had realized it, he wouldn't have been able to dodge such a quick and accurate finishing blow.
He hadn't won yet.
It wasn't over yet.
The Heat-Seeking Missile was just the beginning. Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng had anticipated this. In that kind of situation, even if Dancing Rain had used that attack, she wouldn't have been able to escape. Samsara would have definitely focused all their firepower on her and killed her.
But Ye Xiu had already made preparations to finish her off.
0.7%. Empty Waves was only 0.7% away from dying. It was such a small difference that even Jiang Botao didn't dare to be certain that Empty Waves would survive. But Ye Xiu had accurately predicted it. The shuriken's finishing blow had been so precise and flawless.
Be careful!
It's not over yet!
Now it was time for Ye Xiu to finish her off!
Jiang Botao really wanted to send this message to his other two teammates, because he knew that the Heat-Seeking Missile still had a powerful attack effect. And in that instant, the three of them had been focused on attacking Dancing Rain. Apart from instinctively dodging, they didn't have the energy to do anything else. Right now, they were definitely affected by the shockwave of the explosion. Ye Xiu wanted to take advantage of this time to finish off the three of them in an instant.
1v3 was an impossible task, but in this special situation, Jiang Botao felt a great sense of danger. Because he felt the trust and confidence between Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng. Ye Xiu believed that Su Mucheng would definitely be able to land an AoE attack. Su Mucheng also believed that Ye Xiu would definitely be able to finish off the finishing blow after Dancing Rain fell.
Glory wasn't a one-man game. This was Ye Xiu's belief. Even now, when he was the only one left on the battlefield, he still carried out this belief. In a situation where everyone had worked hard to pave the way, he put a full stop to everyone's efforts.
"Be careful!!" Jiang Botao hated that his voice couldn't be heard. The light from the explosion hadn't faded yet. Jiang Botao, who was already in the air, saw a figure flash like lightning, overlapping with another figure.
Even under the cover of the light and smoke, Jiang Botao could recognize that figure. It was the figure he was incomparably familiar with, Zhou Zekai's Cloud Piercer.
Powerful Knee Strike!
Aerial Twist!
These two skills were both created by the Fist Mage's weapon.
When the Powerful Knee Strike approached, Zhou Zekai had already sensed it. He quickly adjusted Cloud Piercer's position, which had been lifted into the air by the shockwave of the explosion, and prepared to shoot at the incoming Lord Grim. But when the gunshot rang out, Lord Grim's legs were already wrapped around his neck.
Spin!
Lord Grim twisted his body in the air. Cloud Piercer's bullets all hit the ground. Ye Xiu didn't wait for the skill to hit the ground. He had already unlocked the skill. His body was still spinning as he swung his sword. Collapsing Mountain.
There was no leverage in the air, so Collapsing Mountain naturally didn't have any jumping effect. It was just a direct hit, striking Cloud Piercer.
The two figures continued to fall. But then, Lord Grim changed his skill again. His sword suddenly flipped upwards. Upward Slash!
Cloud Piercer seemed to be on a roller coaster, going up and down. Lord Grim rapidly changed his moves, constantly changing the direction of his attacks. Cloud Piercer's body didn't stay on the same trajectory, not even for an instant. Even Zhou Zekai couldn't adjust to this rhythm.
How fast was this?
In the eyes of normal players, this was simply unimaginable. Even the game's settings had been broken. In their eyes, such a skill shouldn't have been able to be fully used in such a short amount of time.
But the pro players knew that the reason he could use such a skill so quickly was because Ye Xiu was constantly canceling skills. Every skill used the shortest and most direct path to hit the opponent. Then, without waiting for the skill to finish, he would immediately cancel it and use the next skill, repeating the cycle. The damage from these skills might not be complete, but the changes were extremely fast. And this extreme change made it impossible for Zhou Zekai to deal with.
In theory, this was the case. But how accurate was his judgement? How fast did his hand speed have to be?
Using a skill, canceling it, Lord Grim even had to change the shape of his weapon.
This hand speed, how fast was it?
The pro players were dumbstruck. They had all experienced unspecialized blitz before, but this was the first time they had seen such a fast and concentrated blitz. The level of a Great God was simply an insult. This was the level of a Super God!
Falling Flower Palm, Anti-Tank Missile, Gatling Gun.
In the blink of an eye, another four skills had been used. They were just as dense, just as fast. The instant that Falling Flower Palm was used, those who weren't pro players wouldn't have noticed it. And then, Cloud Piercer was engulfed in the flames of the Anti-Tank Missile's explosion. At this moment, the high-speed bullets from Gatling Gun had already embedded themselves in his flesh. Together with the knockback effect from Falling Flower Palm, Cloud Piercer was sent flying.
Zero!
Cloud Piercer's health fell to zero!
He didn't give Zhou Zekai any chance to adjust. The high density of skills made it so that Cloud Piercer couldn't adjust as he spun and swayed at high speeds.
Dead!
Cloud Piercer was dead.
3.5 seconds ago, Ye Xiu had 1v3.
3 seconds ago, Ye Xiu had 1v2.
Now, 1v1.
Jiang Botao, Zhou Zekai.
The captain and vice captain of Samsara, who had led Samsara to two championships, Ye Xiu had only needed 3.5 seconds to kill them both. Even if the two characters were at critical health, even if the two had been greatly affected by the Heat-Seeking Missile, to kill them in 3.5 seconds was enough to be called a miracle.
There were no words to describe it. The crowd was filled with screams of surprise. Because the changes were too fast, everyone saw different things in each instant. While one person was still screaming at what he saw, another person saw something different from the rhythm of his vision.
But no matter what, Empty Waves and Cloud Piercer had fallen. They had fallen without any strength to fight back. And then, One Leaf Of Autumn, the character that Ye Xiu had created, would be his final target.
