In the end, Heavenly Fury fell. During his heroic struggle, he had managed to deal a bit of damage to Lord Grim. Lord Grim's health had also been reduced by 10%.
However, what made him even more satisfied was that he had done a good job in depleting Lord Grim's mana.
Lord Grim had taken a Mana Potion midway through the match. As expected, it was one of the best, recovering 20% of his mana. However, after defeating Heavenly Fury, Lord Grim only had 25% of his mana left.
At this moment, it wasn't just Team Everlasting who noticed Lord Grim's mana problem. Even the normal players had discovered that Lord Grim's mana consumption was truly frightening.
After all, 1v3 was a common occurrence, whether in the pro scene or in the game. This was especially true in the online gaming circle, where the gap between players was often even more exaggerated. One versus three situations were even more common.
If it was a 1v3 like a sandbag, mana definitely wouldn't be a burden. Lord Grim's fight against Heavenly Fury wasn't as exaggerated as a sandbag, but at least he had an overwhelming advantage. In this situation, Lord Grim had almost used up all of his mana. He still had 25% of his mana left after taking a Mana Potion. Lord Grim's mana consumption was a bit too high.
From the course of the match, the audience could more or less see it. The reason why Lord Grim's mana consumption was so high was because his attack power was too low. Mana consumption didn't give a lot of damage output.
Some of the smarter and more skilled players had already guessed Team Everlasting's intentions after seeing Lord Grim's leftover mana and thinking back on the course of the match.
Spellblade Go Forth was already standing on Team Everlasting's side. In the deciding round of the group arena, the characters on both sides were clear.
Spellblade's defensive capabilities were well known to the players. Fighting a Qi Master had already expended so much energy. Against a Magic Swordsman, how could 25% of his mana be enough?
Team Happy, we fell into their trap!
Needless to say, the face slappers were very excited when they realized this. It was a foolproof plan. They had finally ushered in a foolproof opportunity. This time, they could finally freely taunt him, right?
It was a pity that there weren't many face slappers here today. Even they thought that Happy wouldn't lose with such an advantage. Speaking of this, there was another regret. Even though the group arena was already set in stone, Team Everlasting still needed to win the team competition to tie. After tying, they still needed to win another round in the team competition to win for sure. If Team Everlasting was eliminated in the end, then the taunts would be extremely boring!
However, who cared so much?
Now that they saw that Happy had been tricked and that their loss in the group arena was a foregone conclusion, the face slappers could only wave their flags and cheer excitedly.
He An smiled at the mockery of the audience. Of course, he wasn't afraid that the audience would talk too much. If even the audience could sense it, how could Happy's experts not notice it? Unfortunately, it was too late for him to realize this now.
Seeing the three, two, one countdown begin, He An took a deep breath. After calming himself down, Go Forth loaded into the match. The fifth round of the group arena, the deciding match, finally began.
The map was still the same map. He An felt like he didn't need to do too much planning. A character with no mana, wasn't he just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered?
Go Forth casually played. He An even had the mood to look at the map's scenery.
Red Flower Pavilion?
He wasn't too familiar with this map. Red flowers filling the sky had a different style to it! However, this map didn't seem to have any special features. In the previous few rounds, Happy didn't seem to be able to use this map at all.
At the thought of this, He An suddenly felt a trace of apprehension in his heart.
Yes, up until now, this map hadn't shown any value as a home map. Happy wouldn't have chosen this map for no reason, right?
But … no matter how he used the map, what could he do with 25% mana?
Thinking of this, He Anxin calmed down. Go Forth continued to walk forward. He could faintly see Lord Grim's silhouette coming from the opposite corner. He passed through the sky full of red flowers and was hurrying towards him.
He came quickly. But then again, was he supposed to stall for time and rely on auto-regeneration? How long would it take for him to auto-regenerate at this rate? With this thought in mind, He Anxin followed Go Forth and went forward to greet them.
Spellblades were similar to Qigong Masters. Most of their skills were mid-range attacks. When encountering an unspecialized, they had to have a backup plan. But He An didn't care about this now. He rushed into Lord Grim's attack range without hesitation.
He An believed that Lord Grim wouldn't do anything with long-range attacks. That way, the chances of wasting mana would be higher.
Sure enough, when Go Forth entered Lord Grim's attack range, he only took a few normal shots from Lord Grim. He didn't even use a single skill.
He An didn't worry and continued to let Go Forth close in. The spectator channel was filled with laughter. Everyone could see Lord Grim's awkwardness and gave all sorts of suggestions in the channel for Go Forth to torture Lord Grim.
Of course, He An couldn't see these suggestions. He was still staring at Lord Grim's mana. He was staring at Lord Grim's health even more than he was staring at Lord Grim's health. However, Lord Grim was only using normal shots. He didn't use up much mana.
Normal attacks couldn't stop Go Forth's momentum. As soon as Go Forth entered his Spellblade's attack range, he immediately used a soul-stirring Ice Blade Wave Sword. A wave of ice swept across the ground.
He An was purely trying to disgust his opponent!
Go Forth had just entered his attack range. Ice Blade Wave Sword wasn't a fast skill, so how could it hit the target? He An was purposely wasting a skill to show off to Lord Grim, who was only using normal attacks because he didn't have enough mana.
Lord Grim dodged it. His character moved forward, still closing in on Go Forth.
You still want to get close? With your little mana, what's the point of getting close? Even though He An thought this, he couldn't purposely let Lord Grim come over and let himself be a punching bag. As a result, he immediately launched an attack. All sorts of Wave Swords and Wave Formations were thrown outwards.
Go Forth's Wave Formations took up a lot of space on the map. However, not a single one covered Lord Grim. Lord Grim's erratic movements and precise control of the range of the Ripple Formation allowed him to slip past the Ripple Formations every single time. In the end, he left one Ripple Formation after another behind him.
Brilliant!
Even He An couldn't help but admit that his Wave Formation technique was completely useless in front of Lord Grim. His opponent passed through them as if they were nothing. But, even if this was the case, so what? You think you can kill me just because you're in front of me?
Earthquake Sword!
Go Forth suddenly slashed. This low-level skill was quite fast, but unfortunately, Lord Grim nimbly dodged it. At this moment, Lord Grim finally used a skill to attack.
Anti-Tank Missiles!
Lord Grim dodged the Earthquake Sword. The tip of the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella opened up, revealing a muzzle that spat out a tongue of flame. Three missiles, three at three different points. It was a Triangle Cannon. At such a distance, He An didn't have time to control it. Go Forth barely managed to dodge, but was still hit by two of the missiles.
In the smoke of the explosion, Go Forth was pushed back by the shockwave. The Anti-Tank Missiles that hit him wouldn't blow up his character.
Sword light flashed. Lord Grim rushed over with a Colliding Stab. He quickly caught up to Go Forth and stabbed. After finishing, he followed up with an Upward Slash. While in the air, the combo was about to begin.
Falling Light Blade!
He An didn't want to let Lord Grim perform. The moment he was in the air, he used a Falling Light Blade. Go Forth twisted his body in the air and fell to the side. In the end, a sword light flashed and Go Forth's landing position was already within Lord Grim's grasp. With a Sword Draw, Go Forth was sent flying before he even hit the ground.
Slide Kick, Knee Strike.
Lord Grim chased after Go Forth with two skills in a row, not letting him land. Go Forth's Falling Light Blade was still on cooldown, but for a Spellblade, he didn't have any exquisite sword moves like a Blade Master. No matter if it was a Wave Formation or a Wave Formation, they were all open and aggressive, but lacking in detail. Against an exquisite attack style like a combo, a Spellblade would have a hard time controlling the situation.
What's more, the player right now was Ye Xiu and he was using an unspecialized. He An's brain couldn't keep up with the combos.
Go Forth was also sent tumbling and rolling. He didn't have the strength to defend himself. However, He An was still quite calm. Lord Grim's fierce attacks had consumed his mana very quickly. He looked at his own health and was confident that he wouldn't be wiped out by 25% of his mana. When you run out of mana, let's see what you can do!
That was what He An thought. However, being beaten up like this by Lord Grim was quite unsightly. He An tried a few times, but to no avail. In order to hide his awkwardness, he decided to just type.
"Is there any use? How do you think you can kill me with this little bit of mana? "Go Forth also sent a message in the channel.
"Haha." Lord Grim found the time to reply, but it was just a "haha". It seemed like he was mocking He An, as if he didn't agree with what He An said.
"You're still laughing? I think it'll be too late for you to cry. Your mana bar is going to turn red! "He An said. Of course, his mana bar didn't turn red like his health bar when it dropped to 10%. However, He An was pretending to be relaxed and humorous. He was hinting that he only had 10% of his mana left and that he was done for.
At this moment, He An suddenly noticed that Lord Grim's attacks had paused.
An opening!
Was he disturbed by what I said?
He An thought. He didn't miss anything. A Falling Light Blade quickly landed on the ground and then he jumped back a few times. When he turned to look, he was stunned.
Why was Lord Grim different from what he saw?
Yes, it was different. Because Lord Grim wasn't wearing the same equipment as before.
"Haha." Lord Grim laughed and said, "I changed my equipment. I'm almost out of mana!"
