"Where's your guy!" After giving his account card to Ye Xiu, Lou Guanning's confidence soared and he roared with Reach for the Rainbow.
"You've got a lot of fighting spirit, Old Lou. Don't worry, your opponent will be here soon." The person said as he walked towards Lou Guanning.
"Don't come over! I won't give you that one in a million chance! "Lou Guanning acted as if he was worried that the other side would peek. In reality, he really was afraid that the other side would peek. If they did, the fact that he asked Ye Xiu to substitute in would be exposed.
"Oh my, you're so serious? The more serious you are, the more pitiful you are! "The person shook his head and sighed.
Even though they were bad friends, they were familiar with each other and understood each other very well. Lou Guanning was a bit startled by this person's appearance. This guy was very confident this time! Even though this person didn't play Glory much, he often talked with Lou Guanning and the other Glory fans. Now that he was eager to attack Team Heavenly Swords, he had a good eye. He was very clear about Lou Guanning's current skill level. Any random expert would be no match for Lou Guanning's team. All he could hope for was for Lou Guanning's team to make a few mistakes and then laugh at them for only looking at the results and ignoring the process. For him to be so confident right from the start, could it be that he had found someone amazing this time? Otherwise, with the high loss rate of expert players, wouldn't his confidence be equivalent to putting his face on the table and waiting to be slapped?
Lou Guanning was suspicious, but when he remembered that it was a God who would substitute in, he immediately calmed down. However, in order to not let the person see through him, after seeing his unexpected confidence, Lou Guanning pretended to be surprised and asked: "Who did you find?" Friends were mutual. While Lou Guanning was familiar with the other side, how could the other side not be familiar with him? The other side was overly confident, but Lou Guanning didn't need to be overly confident in order to not arouse suspicion.
"Ha ha, let's talk after we fight." The person said.
This guy couldn't have found a way to invite a pro player over, right?
Lou Guanning muttered to himself. After all, it was the All Star Weekend. All the pro players in Glory were gathered in City B. If this guy was willing to pay any price to attack him, then it was possible that he invited a pro player over!
Just as he was guessing, a figure suddenly appeared at the door. Lou Guanning stood up to take a look. He didn't recognize him … He wasn't a pro player.
"Alright, I'm coming. Let's get started then. " His bad friend had an expectant look on his face, and he didn't treat himself as an outsider at all. He casually arranged a seat for the newcomer.
The person didn't say much. He went over and sat down. He took out his account card from his pocket and swiped it to log into Glory.
"Room number." Lou Guanning secretly sent a message to Ye Xiu. After receiving a reply, he reported it out loud.
The player logged on and quickly arrived at the Arena and found a room. Everyone had already opened their accounts and waited in the room. Using their accounts to view the game from a spectator's point of view was much clearer than watching from behind the players. Lou Guanning himself had also created a sockpuppet account to mingle with the crowd. He saw the person enter the room with everyone else.
Sleep for another summer.
The character's name was a little interesting. Looking at his class, Lou Guanning suddenly understood why he had been challenged. This Another Summer of Sleep was also a Berserker.
"Same old rules. Random map. One round." Lou Guanning said.
"Don't I need to give you more chances?" His bad friend laughed.
"I don't have that much time." Lou Guanning wasn't in a good mood. "Start."
As he said this, Ye Xiu immediately chose a random map and the match began. The countdown ended and both sides loaded into the map. In the end, the map was a 1v1 indoor map: Tavern.
A 1v1 wouldn't be too big, but it was still much bigger than the Arena, which players often used to save time. For indoor maps, the many rooms were even more annoying than the many obstacles. For this Tavern, apart from the five connected rooms, there was also an underground wine cellar. There were a total of six rooms.
Ye Xiu's Loulan Slash and Another Summer of Sleep each appeared in a different room. They didn't know where the other was, so they walked towards the entrance of their respective rooms.
The spectators all looked at Another Summer of Sleep's equipment. The equipment of a normal player couldn't compare to that of a pro character. However, the game was currently undergoing a large update, so normal players had a chance to get closer to pro characters.
However, this chance only existed. Level 75 Orange equipment wasn't something that just anyone could get.
However, when everyone looked at Another Summer of Sleep's equipment, they were all astonished. He already had four pieces of Level 75 Orange equipment, including an Orange weapon: Edgeless Greatsword. Not only did it have a bunch of eye-catching Level 75 Orange equipment, it also had an additional effect, Shatter, which doubled the damage to equipment durability.
This effect was quite sinister.
What was equipment durability? That was money!
In Glory, if you directly looked for a blacksmith to repair equipment, each repair would lower the upper limit of the equipment's durability until it was at its lowest point. As a result, in order to not lower the upper limit, you needed to find the appropriate materials to repair the equipment. The better the equipment, the more expensive the materials needed to repair it. In other words, the better the equipment, the more valuable its durability was.
And this weapon that increased durability was simply stabbing into the opponent's money bag! What was even more frightening was that if they were caught in a stalemate, with the increased durability, it was possible that the opponent's equipment durability would be reduced to 0. In Glory, the lowest durability of equipment was 1. If the durability was 0, the equipment would be considered destroyed, turning into a pile of trash and exploding...
"Could it be that this guy purposely got this weapon to destroy our equipment?" Lou Guanning guessed in his heart. He knew that even though Heavenly Justice's equipment was very poor in the pro scene, it was still much better than normal players. As a result, in the past, when this bad friend of his hired thugs, he would often provide some equipment. Even though this guy didn't have much of a background in Glory, as long as he had money, equipment wasn't too difficult to get. In order to make Lou Guanning suffer, this guy was very willing to make this kind of investment.
It must be that guy's bad idea. Lou Guanning glanced at his bad friend. However, with a God watching over, Lou Guanning believed that this kind of scheme wouldn't succeed.
The two Berserkers shuttled back and forth in the tavern. Neither of them ran to the underground wine cellar, instead going back and forth between the five rooms, searching for each other. Finally, in one of the rooms, the two characters each rushed in from a different door and met.
Collapsing Mountain!
The first to attack was Ye Xiu, a very normal Berserker opening move.
The other side was very adept at dealing with this type of common move. Another Summer of Sleep jumped back and swung his greatsword in a circle, using a Sword Draw. Collapsing Mountain's priority wasn't any lower than Sword Draw, so this Sword Draw wouldn't be able to send Loulan Slash flying, but the damage would definitely be taken. After using the Sword Draw at the closest distance possible, Another Summer of Sleep leaped backwards again, accurately dodging the AoE impact of the Collapsing Mountain.
Ye Xiu was astonished. However, this guy's counterattack was only for these two jumps back. The first jump was to avoid the edge of the attack, and the second jump was to avoid the Sword Draw that couldn't be stopped by Collapsing Mountain. The timing of the two backward jumps was extremely precise. Just such a small detail would depend on one's skill. It couldn't be a coincidence twice.
Ye Xiu's expression suddenly became more serious. If this was any random opponent, he probably wouldn't care if the Collapsing Mountain hit him or not, and would continue to attack. However, seeing the other side's two precise jumps, Ye Xiu realized that if he continued to attack like this, he would definitely receive a powerful counterattack. As a result, he didn't wait for the Collapsing Mountain to land and forced a Parry in midair.
With a clang, the Sword Draw hit Loulan Slash's Parry, and Loulan Slash used the momentum to fly back to the ground. The first time the two Berserkers clashed with their heavy swords, they both used Blade Master skills. The sound of the greatswords clashing made Lou Guanning's heart palpitate. Who knew how much of Loulan Slash's weapon's durability had been shaved off with this sound?
As soon as Loulan Slash landed, he immediately used Colliding Stab. His movements were so fast that it felt as if his character hadn't even touched the ground yet, but was already floating through the air.
The other side clearly didn't expect such a brilliant response, and dodged the Colliding Stab in a somewhat awkward manner. Ye Xiu had Loulan Slash turn around and follow up with a Whirlwind Slash, but the other side moved quickly and used a Whirlwind Slash as well. The two Berserkers swung their greatswords wildly. The sounds of weapons clashing could be heard endlessly. At the same time, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and their health dropped.
When Whirlwind Slash was used, it depended on the player's mechanics to adjust the angle of the sword in order to maximize the damage dealt to the opponent. The two were clearly micromanaging Whirlwind Slash, sometimes hitting the other side, sometimes parrying. When the two skills ended at the same time, the damage they received was about the same. As for the health of their weapons, which was their durability, Loulan Slash was definitely at a disadvantage.
Not bad!
The two of them thought to themselves. This sort of clash of skills was the best way to show who was better. If the result was about the same, it more or less meant that the skill level was about the same.
Who was this person?
Ye Xiu had no choice but to seriously consider this question. In the entire Glory scene, how many players could be on the same level as him? At first, Ye Xiu hadn't thought much of it. When the person arrived, he hadn't even glanced over. Now that he realized that the person wasn't simple, he wanted to look again, but the screen was between the two of them, so he couldn't look.
As for the person who had arrived, he wasn't as surprised as Ye Xiu. After all, he thought that his opponent was Lou Guanning, and Lou Guanning was a pro player. For them to be on the same level wasn't too surprising.
"Again!"
The two sides didn't say anything. They both thought to themselves and attacked at the same time. The greatswords in their hands turned into a red blur as they slashed towards the other side. Then, with another loud bang, the two swords collided. This was a Wild Blood Strike. The two had both attacked at about the same angle, so the attack had turned into a parry.
Lou Guanning's heart was about to break!
God, you can't play like this! If you fight like this, you're clearly ruining my equipment! Hurry up and be more flexible … …
