Following the scent of the devil, Li Minhao spotted Dafei from afar. The rumored China player did not move. Was he fighting a wild monster? That's right, this was a good opportunity for a sneak attack!
Li Minhao calculated the rate at which his stamina was decreasing. He activated Rapid Charge and quickened his pace.
As the distance closed, Dafei still did not move. Li Minhao believed that if the other party was still relying on the vision of the Detection Spell to detect and warn him, then sorry, in this dark environment, his only outcome would be defeat and death! Even if he activated his Celestial Equipment!
Li Minhao's confidence came from his hero's special skill, Rapid Strike!
— — Rapid Strike: At the start of the battle, all troops' first round of attack increases by 50%.
Rapid Strike was the famous specialty of the God-tier Ranger during the open beta. It maximized the Elves' ability to strike first, ensuring that all the Elves, including the LV6 Dryads, would be able to strike first. Of course, the Dryads were not long-range and did not charge first, so there was not much point in striking first. However, this special skill only applied to the troops' first attack. After that, their attack speed would be normal. In other words, once the troops attacked for the first time, it was equivalent to the hero losing its special skill.
In other words, the key to this special skill was to cripple the opponent in the first round of battle! To cripple the opponent, not only did one have to attack first, but one had to attack more. The prerequisite for attacking more was that the Rapid Strike's Attack Speed was at least twice that of the opponent.
For example, the Level 3 Elf Jungle Hunter's basic Attack Speed was 13. Any equipment that increased Attack Speed by 50% could exceed 20 points. On the other hand, the average attack speed of the human army was 10. This meant that once the human army was attacked by Ferocious Assault, the Jungle Hunters would have already attacked twice before the human army could react. The human players could only watch helplessly as the Jungle Hunters insta-killed their archers and then insta-killed their spearmen! If the Rapid Strike was a Zombie with a 6 Attack Speed, then the Zombie players could only stare in shock as the Jungle Hunter attacked three times in a row! Or even four times!
Hence, Rapid Strike combined with the strongest Level 3 Elf Jungle Hunter had an overwhelming advantage over the other races in the early stages of the game. Because of this, the Jungle Hunter was worth as much as a Level 5 Soldier during the open beta.
The reason why such a powerful hero wasn't referred to as a god-tier hero was ultimately because the Nation Wars in the later stages of the game were too much of a scam. They consumed too much equipment and relied too much on long-range soldiers. This was because the Swift and Violent Striker's Attack Speed was at least double that of the opponent's in order to guarantee an extra attack. So, if the opponent equipped a treasure that increased Attack Speed by 1, then the Swift and Violent Striker would need to equip a treasure that increased Attack Speed by 2! At the same time, treasures that increased Attack Speed usually didn't provide very high Attack and Defense. Some even didn't provide any Attack or Defense at all. As a result, an army's overall Attributes were quite low.
At the same time, if the enemy was crippled, their first reaction would be to throw a few lightning spells at the Forest Hunters to kill them. This made it difficult for the Forest Hunters to accumulate numbers.
However, the so-called trickery was only for normal players and normal troops. For a top-notch expert like Li Minhao who had the background of a world-class professional team, this specialty was fully deserving of being a god-tier specialty!
The Demon Hunter, a Level 4 Elf special soldier, had a terrifying base Attack Speed of 16 points. Li Minhao's Speed Cloak, Speed Gloves, Speed Necklace, Speed Ring, Speed Bow, and other tactical equipment that increased Attack Speed gave around 10 points of Attack Speed. His Ranger and Archer's combination skill, "Archer's Agility", gave ranged soldiers + 1 Attack Speed. His Logistics and Attack's combination skill, "Nimble Aura", gave the entire army + 1 Attack Speed. Now, with the 20% Speed Increase from Corrosive Frenzy, it was 33.6 points.
What did 50.4 mean? It meant that when fighting against a human army with 10 Attack Speed, Li Minhao's Demon Hunter would be like a machine gun firing 5 times. The human army wouldn't even have a chance to retaliate. It wasn't a joke to say that the Elves could insta-kill people. Even if this Dafei had a Secret Archer and a Banshee, as long as his Attack Speed didn't exceed 17, he would still be shot three times. There didn't seem to be anyone in the professional world who could turn the tables after being attacked three times by him.
To be honest, even Li Minhao himself felt that this unbelievable 50.4 Attack Speed was inconceivable. He was even a little excited.
Now, his prey was right in front of him and he didn't even realize it. Li Minhao could already start attacking, but he couldn't. There was a huge problem, and that was the terrain.
The opponent's army was lined up in a long and narrow tunnel. Once the battle started, he could only shoot at the tail of the army. If he couldn't reach the front, he wouldn't be able to insta-kill people. That's right, Rapid Strike had to attack the moment the battle started. Once he moved, it would be equivalent to losing his power. This was also the scam of this specialty.
Therefore, Li Minhao had to continue moving forward, even if it was shooting at zero range. Only a top pro player like Li Minhao, who was skilled and daring, could do such a thing!
This was also the time when Dafei's radar alert found him.
— System Notification: Detection Warning! You have entered contestant Dafei's alert range!
Li Minhao's heart skipped a beat. He was discovered. He was much more vigilant than he expected. This meant that his Detection skill was at least Grandmaster. Being able to reach Grandmaster as an amateur player, his skill was not bad.
Li Minhao immediately took out a scroll with black smoke curling around it and crushed it. A cloud of black smoke instantly enveloped his army.
— System Notification: You have used the Grandmaster Dark Magic "Curtain of Darkness" Scroll. Both sides will have 80% field of vision within the Curtain of Darkness. Dodge chance of enemy's physical attacks + 30%, dodge chance of enemy's magic attacks + 50%, duration of 5 seconds!
That's right. The Demon Hunter's built-in dodge skill, plus this kind of god-tier scroll, this was the reason why Li Minhao could shoot at zero range. Although both sides' vision was reduced by 80%, Li Minhao used his "breath" to kill people. He could fight even with his eyes closed. Now, Dafei was being chased and couldn't escape.
。。。。。
The Curtain of The Dark Heavens appeared just as the red dot on Da Fei's radar flashed and disappeared.
The sudden appearance of the enemy scared Dafei out of his wits. What the hell! Someone actually dared to come right under my nose. How could I not see it when it was right under my nose?
Hurry up and turn around!
In that instant, Dafei knew that he was in big trouble. Dafei's army was arranged like this. The first row consisted of five Level 7 Storm Druil as a meat shield. Behind them were the Cannon Emperor, who had heavy firepower and HP and Defense. Behind them were the fragile Banshees, Druil, Secret Archer, Forest Goddess and so on. Now that they had turned around, the rear became the front. What was this? If he had known, he would have sent the five Storm Druil to hold the line at the back.
Now, even if he was unbeatable and lucky enough to kill the enemy and obtain victory, and resurrect the dead soldiers, what use were these soldiers? They were already infected with two major plagues. They couldn't even hold on when they were alive. Now that they were in a weakened state after resurrection, it was even more impossible for them to hold on. They would probably be begging for mercy the moment they resurrected. Not to mention, there was no way for the dead Banshees to resurrect.
In other words, his plan to attack the final BOSS had gone down the drain. If he had known, he wouldn't have waited here. He would have charged in with snot on his face.
For a moment, Dafei was filled with regret. At that moment —
— System prompt: You have infected the "Super Black Plague" to the Korean contestant "Arirang".
— System prompt: You have infected the "Insect Plague" to the Korean contestant "Arirang".
— System prompt: You have been infected by the Korean contestant "Arirang". Your army's movement speed has been reduced. Your army's Stamina, maximum Stamina, and maximum HP will continue to decrease. The Ptomaine Plague may spread to other players. Duration is unknown.
— System Notification: You are currently in the state of "Zombie Plague". If you can completely overcome the effects of the plague, or collect 10 Hero's Proofs while in the plague state, you will receive the achievement "Zombie Plague Antibody" as a reward for the competition.
Dafei's eyelids twitched in shock. F * ck you. Not only did you ambush me, you even used a plague to trick me. But — do you know that I already have two big clusters of plague? If you want to trick me, you should first ask yourself if you don't have the Limitless Survival Technique and the Divine Lizard Weapon! I don't believe you can withstand the Triple Plague for more than a few seconds! Brother, I'm going to destroy you!!!
。。。。。
— System Notification: You have been infected by China contestant "Dafei" with the "Super Black Plague".
— System Notification: You have been infected by China contestant "Dafei" with "Insect Swarm Plague".
In an instant, the stamina of Li Minhao's troops, which was running low after their rapid march, was instantly depleted. They were unable to move forward at all! At the same time, his HP dropped at an unbelievable rate!
The answer was that Li Minhao didn't even last a second against the sudden triple plague! Li Minhao was dumbfounded! In his current situation, he couldn't even walk, let alone fight! Although Li Minhao had experienced countless difficult situations during the open beta, this was the first time he encountered three different types of plague at the same time!
Should we continue fighting?
Of course it was to fight! As a professional gamer, as long as he was breathing, he would fight to the bitter end!
— System Notification: You have launched an attack on China contestant "Dafei"! Battle begins!
Unfortunately, even with a 50% speed boost, what was the use when his troops were so tired that they couldn't even lift their hands?
At that moment, a strong gust of wind swept through the tunnel!
— System Notification: Contestant "Dafei" sub-hero "Serbia" has cast the "Storm Assault" spell on your troops. Your flying troops are unable to attack, and your long-range troops are unable to ensure an effective hit rate!
Li Minhao was shocked. I've been attacked first! Storm Assault! His sub-hero actually knew the Master-level Light Assault spell, Storm Assault!
Then, flames flashed in the darkness. Flaming chains, arrows, and magic bullets whistled through the air!
