Although Imperial Sky Shenming had the Eagle Eye's astonishing eyesight, it was too difficult for him to count the squirming crowd at the foot of the mountain. To count the moving targets, he needed a certain sense of direction. If Imperial Sky Shenming had a sense of direction, he wouldn't be a directionally challenged person.
Staring back and forth, he didn't know how many times he had to count, but the group of people had already circled the foot of the mountain, and Imperial Sky Shenming still hadn't gotten a result. Just in time, Zhan Wu Shang became impatient and asked, "You still haven't finished counting?"
Imperial Sky Shenming acted as if he had been pardoned, and coldly roared at Zhan Wu Shang, "What are you shouting for, hurry up and finish counting, you've forgotten where you were with all this noise!"
These words also reminded the Han Family Young Master, this was a rare oversight on his part, and he immediately patted Imperial Sky Shenming, "Alright, don't force yourself."
The squirming Black Hand Mercenary Group stopped at the foot of the mountain, and after finding the path, they began to climb.
"Wa, is there a need for this? Everyone is going up the mountain? "Imperial Sky Shenming exclaimed.
"This mountain is closer to our spawn point, and we have fewer people, so we are more mobile. If we all had the intention of taking the high ground, we would already be at the top of the mountain, and would be surrounded by them." The Han Family Young Master said.
"Oh!" When everyone heard this, they looked at the movements of the Black Hand Mercenary Group, as expected, they were not climbing the mountain freely, but were advancing in a formation, as if they were ready to receive an attack from the top of the mountain.
"Our forces won't split up! This is the first habit our opponents have developed over the course of the Mercenary Competition. "The Han Family Young Master sneered.
The Black Hand Mercenary Group were halfway up the mountain, and after a few more steps, the archers at the front of the formation suddenly began to shoot.
"What are they doing!" Imperial Sky Shenming was shocked.
The Han Family Young Master smiled indifferently, "This is the second habit they've developed: they are worried about our formation mages' ability to instantly kill. So you see, when a group advances, it should be the warriors acting as meat shields at the outermost edge of the group, protecting the archers or mages, and the weaker ranged professions like them when they are ambushed. But now, they feel that our formation mages can instantly kill everything, and the protection of the warriors won't help, so they might as well have the archers at the outermost edge, relying on their distance advantage to take the initiative. That place wasn't within the range of a mage's spell, right? They shot first, not giving you a chance to show yourself! "The Han family's young master turned to look at Gu Fei.
Gu Fei was silent for a moment before saying, "Actually, my area-of-effect spells might not be able to instantly kill a Warrior right now. Using a Warrior to attract the firepower is more correct."
"You're a freak. Dual Flame Flash's power is the greatest, while the other techniques are weaker!" Imperial Sky Divine Cry looked at him in disdain. If he was a Mage, seeing Gu Fei like this, he would also think: Since the Double Flame Flash is so powerful, other spells can only be even more powerful.
Gu Fei shrugged, "Dual Flame Flash has a physical attack, and it's more practical!"
Imperial God Ming spat out a mouthful of blood. In the eyes of all Mages, Dual Flame Flash, the skill that they could ignore the most, became the most practical in Gu Fei's hands. Moreover, it was a physical attack. If it weren't for the fact that you had the Dark Night Streamer Sword that dealt damage to both physical and magical attacks, what kind of physical attacks would you have?
The Han Clan's young master smiled. "I just hope that they will have this kind of exaggerated and mistaken thought process."
At this time, the Black Hand Mercenary Group had already successfully occupied the top of the mountain under the continuous attacks of the archers. Such a large group of people had been so careful and put in so much effort, even using the same vigor as when they attacked the Wolf Ivory Mountain's five warriors, but in the end, they found that the mountain was empty, so they couldn't help but feel disappointed. If they were to find out that their actions had been treated as a joke by the six people in the small forest not far from the foot of the mountain, then they would have spat out even more blood.
After the Black Hand Mercenary Group settled down at the top of the mountain, they began to look around.
"Next up will be more difficult for them." The Han family's young master said, "We can't give up the view of the mountain, but they will have to send people to find us, so they will have to split into two groups. Whichever group has fewer people, it will be an opportunity for us to take advantage of. In this way, splitting into two groups seems to be the most effective and reliable plan. "
While the Han family's young master was speaking, the people at the top of the mountain had already begun to move. Although they couldn't accurately count the number of people, they could roughly estimate the number. Just as the Han family's young master said, almost everyone had rushed down the mountain.
"Hahahaha, you guessed wrong! They've all gone down the mountain. " Everyone was laughing and ridiculing, but they heard the Han family's young master sigh, and said unhurriedly: "This is their third habit. Although there are only six of us, no one knows how much energy the six of us have. Can we fight against ten people? Twenty people? Thirty? Or even more? Therefore, when they have to split into two groups, they won't use the method of splitting the points equally, which seems safe, but is actually risky. They will sacrifice the rook to protect the general, leaving two or three people at the high ground to enjoy the scenery, while the others continue to concentrate on searching. This way, even if the people at the top of the mountain are ambushed, they will only lose two or three points, and have a chance to turn the situation around. "
"Since they guessed that we might ambush these two or three people, what if they set up an ambush there?" Imperial God Ming said.
"That's a good question, so we are currently lying in the forest, do you think they set up an ambush there?" The Han family's young master said.
Imperial God Ming was speechless. The other side rushed to the top of the mountain and dispersed not long after, and because they were all neatly piled up together, they didn't see any private movements, so it didn't seem like they were going to set up an ambush.
"Right now their main target is definitely the forest, this kind of blind spot from the high ground, our forest is the closest, I'm afraid they'll be here soon?" Brother You shouted.
The Han family's young master nodded.
"Up the tree?" Zhan Wu Shang asked doubtfully. The previous battle in the forest to wipe out the Waterflower Mercenary Group could be said to be more daunting than dangerous, and after everyone's analysis, they felt that in that environment, only Gu Fei could use Blink to maintain his position, and then use area of effect spells to ambush the people at the bottom of the tree, it seemed like the other side was completely helpless.
"No, the method from that day can't be used today. That requires perfect terrain conditions, today's forest isn't good enough to hide people. "The Han family's young master said.
Indeed, the forest they were in was small to begin with, and the trees were not luxuriant enough. They could still be used as cover from a distance, but if they were to really get under the trees and look up, they would definitely not be able to hide anyone in the trees.
"Retreat, we'll be discovered if we move any closer." The people at the top of the mountain were already halfway down, and the Han family's young master was the first to move after shouting. "This way."
"Won't we be discovered by the eyes at the top of the mountain if we leave the forest like this?" Brother You was always worried.
The Han family's young master smiled and didn't reply. Everyone was already used to his arrogant manner of keeping them in suspense. Anyway, they knew that the arrangements he came up with would be daunting but not dangerous in the end, so they didn't ask any more questions and followed him out of the forest. The view from the top of the mountain was temporarily blocked by the forest, and the Han family's young master led them around a small part of the forest. Suddenly, a half-tall broken wall appeared, and the Han family's young master crouched behind the wall and waved at them.
The few of them followed in surprise. This cover naturally blocked the view from the top of the mountain. Zhan Wu Shang was stunned. "Did you draw this map?"
"Don't speak first." The Han family's young master led the way. This wall was actually quite long, but due to the different degrees of damage, some places could be walked straight, some places had to squat, and some places even had to lie down. In any case, everyone followed behind the Han family's young master and walked in the appropriate positions. The ground in front of them suddenly lowered, and the Han family's young master turned around and said, "Move faster!" With that said, he flashed and scrambled down into the depression.
The postures of the people behind him didn't look beautiful either. When it was Gu Fei and Sword Ghost's turn, one of them used teleportation and flashed down, while the other used stealth and swaggered down. They looked at the four of them and smiled foolishly.
The four of them didn't have any temper. Zhan Wu Shang raised his previous doubt again. "Did you draw this map?" Although he knew it was impossible, how did the Han family's young master know that there was a wall here that could block the view from the top of the mountain?
The Han family's young master answered Zhan Wu Shang's question lazily by saying, "Observe carefully."
"Where does this lead to?" Brother You immediately began to observe carefully, first observing the path in front of them.
"We can almost reach the bottom of the mountain. We'll wait for the rest to go far before moving." The Han family's young master said.
"You've already observed it?"
"I didn't observe, I searched." The Han family's young master had a lecturing look on his face. "I've been paying attention to the height of the mountain and the surrounding terrain from the start. That's why I purposely found this path that's basically a blind spot at the top of the mountain."
"So that's how it is!" Brother You admired the Han family's observational skills.
The Han family's young master was naturally very pleased, but when he looked at the other four, they didn't listen to him at all. Zhan Wu Shang and Sword Ghost were in a daze, not knowing what to think. On the other side, Gu Fei held the straw hat that Imperial Divine Ming had woven in the forest. "You're quite skilled, who did you learn this from?"
"Heh, it's nothing!" Imperial Divine Ming was also very pleased!
The Han family's young master was furious, but he couldn't let it out. He glared at the four and said, "When they're done searching the forest, move further away, and we'll ambush the top of the mountain."
"Since this is a blind spot at the top of the mountain, they'll probably search here, right?" Brother You said.
"This is a blind spot that only I would have noticed. From the top of the mountain, they'll definitely overlook this place. " As the Han family's young master spoke, his eyes casually glanced around, and he suddenly roared at Gu Fei. "Qian Li, stand closer to the inside, stick close to the side!!!" His perfect plan was almost ruined by this fellow's careless positioning.
"Teleportation, move!" Gu Fei said, moving a little further in, and continued to speak to Imperial Heaven Divine Ming. "How is this connected?"
"Oh, like this, and then like this …" Imperial Divine Ming took off his straw hat to demonstrate.
