Fire Bullet!
It was a very low-level Elementalist skill. Jiang You obviously didn't care about it. He easily dodged to the side while having Wandering Peak counterattack. But that Mage called Hazy Scene had already jumped down from the stone pillar.
Even if he jumped down, he would still fight!
Jiang You didn't hesitate. He cast a spell and was just about to attack Hazy Scene, when he suddenly heard a boom. A pillar of fire shot into the sky. Elementalist skill: Raging Flames.
The spell wasn't aimed at Wandering Peak, so Jiang You didn't need to dodge it. However, this Raging Flames made him lose his target. The pillar of fire enveloped Hazy Scene. Not even a corner of his clothes was exposed. Jiang You had already moved his cursor, but he suddenly didn't know where to click.
However, Hazy Scene was still there. Jiang You relied on his experience to guess where to click and cast the spell he had just cast.
Elementalist skill: Piercing Lightning!
A bolt of lightning shot out from the tip of Wandering Peak's staff. It crackled and flickered. It didn't seem to be moving in a straight line, but it instantly pierced through the pillar of fire and hit the stone pillar behind it.
It didn't hit!
Just as Jiang You had this thought, he suddenly felt something strange in his view. The air around Wandering Peak flickered with tiny electric sparks, as if it had been pierced by lightning. The color of the ground around his feet seemed to be darkening, and it looked a little blurry, as if there was some kind of steam separating them.
F * ck!
How could the experienced Jiang You not know what was going on? He immediately used Teleport, but … …
The spell was ineffective.
All of Wandering Peak's skill icons turned gray. Under his health and mana bar, an abnormal status symbol appeared.
Elementalist skill: Magic Seal.
It interrupted all spell chants and prevented the spellcaster from using any spells for 4 seconds.
4 seconds sounded very short, but at this moment, Jiang You knew that let alone 4 seconds, even 1 second was enough.
Lightning and raging flames instantly surrounded Wandering Peak.
Elementalist skill: Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire. Jiang You had already seen the signs that this spell was about to explode, but he still wasn't able to dodge it. This was because the other side had been prepared and had used Magic Seal to seal all of his spells. It was impossible to dodge the Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire with his legs when he noticed it.
Under the light and fire spells, Jiang You saw that the pillar of fire had disappeared. Hazy Scene stood firmly on the ground, but the staff in his hand was still pointed at him.
This was an expert! A super expert!
Jiang You still had some foresight, not to mention this was the class he was most familiar with. That opponent had actually cast two spells in the short time he had taken to jump down.
Heavenly Lightning, Earthen Fire, Magic Imprisonment …
No, it might be because of the three spells and that Raging Flame Impact!
Casting while jumping wasn't anything new. As long as there was a Casting While Moving, the chanting of any spell would be the same. The problem was the casting speed. From that height to the ground, it only took a blink of an eye. Whether it was three skills or two, Jiang You was certain of one thing. If it was him, he definitely wouldn't be able to do it.
To be able to do something that he was far from being able to do, what kind of level did such an expert have?
There was only one answer in Jiang You's mind: a pro player.
As the guild leader of a Club guild, he obviously knew that during the summer when there weren't any matches, pro players would run into the game. They would either take the initiative to help the guild or pass time. If a pro player came, how could they not participate in the boss fight?
A pro player from Team Wind Howl?
An Elementalist from Team Wind Howl?
In the blink of an eye, a name came to mind: Zhao Yuzhe.
Season 8's Best Rookie, Team Wind Howl's pro player Zhao Yuzhe. Wasn't his character Beautiful Light an Elementalist?
Jiang You himself played an Elementalist, so he paid special attention to other pro players of the same class, whether it was Tyranny or not. As a result, he instantly guessed the opponent's background.
Jiang You's heart sank. He hadn't expected Howling Heights to have a pro player participate. When a pro player came, of course they would immediately provide an account. Moreover, the best equipment would be equipped, so wearing some Orange equipment was natural.
Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire made it impossible for Jiang You to dodge. The opponent didn't hold back either, continuously bombarding him with spells. By the time the Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire disappeared, Wandering Peak was already on the verge of death. Jiang You had just used Wandering Peak to fight Misty Rain. The other side knew his identity, so they obviously took care of him. His character's health wasn't full yet. But now, he was being taken care of by a pro player.
Run!
The instant the Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire disappeared, Jiang You wanted to do this. He hastily used a Teleport to charge into the crowd. But before he could complete the skill, his character had just turned around when a bolt of lightning pierced through Wandering Peak's back and came out from his chest.
"F * ck … …" Jiang You cursed. Wandering Peak's health instantly fell to zero. He fell, killed by the opponent's Piercing Lightning. It was the skill that Jiang You had used to counterattack the opponent.
"Hmph … …" Wandering Peak fell. Hazy Scene didn't even glance at him. He coldly harrumphed and then blasted away.
Jiang You's guess wasn't wrong. The person behind Hazy Scene was Team Wind Howl's rookie, who had just finished Season 8's Best Rookie, Zhao Yuzhe.
Season 8's Best Rookie award wasn't as easy as Season 7's. Season 7's Best Rookie, Sun Xiang, was already on the level of a God. The other rookies in the same season all kneeled in front of him. That year, Sun Xiang was even a strong contender for the MVP award. However, the MVP award wasn't just based on the individual's stats. It also depended on the team's performance. At that time, Sun Xiang's Team Conquering Clouds was a weak team. They didn't even make it into the playoffs. How could they qualify for the MVP award? But for the Best Rookie award, even a blind person would vote for Sun Xiang.
And in Season 8, Zhao Yuzhe had won against two competitors to win the award. His lead wasn't very big either.
But Zhao Yuzhe didn't think about that. Winning this award was enough to prove that he was this season's most outstanding rookie. Zhao Yuzhe was very excited to win this award. Because of this award, he gained a lot of confidence. He felt like his position in the team would definitely rise. And with Team Wind Howl's current situation, he was filled with anticipation for the future.
The team's original ace player, captain Lin Jingyan, had been on the decline for a long time because of his age. Last season, he had been defeated by Tang Hao at the All Stars Weekend. His personal reputation had fallen by quite a bit. Even his prestige in his own team was declining by the day. Zhao Yuzhe's respect for his captain was only superficial on the surface. In his heart, he had never accepted him.
As for the team's other All Star player, Fang Rui, his skill level wasn't low. His character, Doubtful Demon, was also known as Glory's number one Thief. But the problem was that Fang Rui was the epitome of playing dirty. Besides playing dirty, he played even dirtier. Playing dirty was a relatively unorthodox playstyle. There were many supporters, but there were also many people who hated it. Making a player like this the ace player meant that while winning the support of a portion of the players, they would also lose a portion of the players.
It was a good idea for a new team to use this method to gain a portion of the players' support, but Team Wind Howl already had decent strength and popularity. Using such an unorthodox playstyle was too risky for them. As a result, Fang Rui was limited by his playstyle. He definitely wouldn't be the ace player.
Then who should be the ace player of Team Wind Howl?
Being chosen as the Best Rookie seemed to give them an answer.
After being chosen as the Best Rookie, Zhao Yuzhe's mind was filled with countless fantasies. He even fantasized about the team buying the number one Elementalist, Windy City Misty Rain. In addition, he felt that this possibility was very likely. Right now, it was widely rumored that Team Hundred Blossoms was going to buy their number one Brawler, Three Hits, for Tang Hao. Then why couldn't their team use this income to buy Windy City Misty Rain?
Zhao Yuzhe was excited. He was thoroughly excited by his own fantasies. He, who had boundless expectations for the future, gave up his vacation and ran to the game to work hard for the team. He already viewed himself as the ace player. On days when he wasn't competing, he ran to the game to contribute.
Aside from the fact that buying Windy City Misty Rain was a bit of an exaggeration, Zhao Yuzhe's other ideas weren't out of line. Lin Jingyan was old. Fang Rui's playstyle wasn't suited for being the ace player. A team with the Best Rookie would raise the Best Rookie as the ace player. This line of thinking was completely reasonable. Zhao Yuzhe wasn't the only one who thought this way. There were many others.
For example, the guild leader of the in-game guild, West Riding Wind, thought this way. As a result, when Zhao Yuzhe rushed into the game to support him, he really did view him as a future ace player. This made Zhao Yuzhe feel comfortable from head to toe. He took the character and equipment that West Riding Wind gave him and energetically helped the team snatch the boss.
As a result, in their first battle, they met Tyrannical Ambition.
Zhao Yuzhe disdained West Riding Wind's description of Tyrannical Ambition's elite team. What did they have? They were just in the game. Even if they were elites, how strong could they be? To catch bandits, first catch the ringleader. He would directly kill the other side's boss and see what they could do.
As a result, Zhao Yuzhe's Hazy Scene stood very high. He was looking for an opponent to take the lead and directly kill him to break their morale.
It was clear that he had succeeded. Jiang You had been killed in a single exchange. At this moment, Zhao Yuzhe was even more pleased with himself. How could such a small matter in the game stump the Best Rookie, Team Wind Howl's future ace player?
