Hu Die Lan
Chapter 710 Focus
The Whistling Heights elite squad's fourth tank was in a panic, hearing the two calls simultaneously. The fates of the main tank, off-tank, and third tank had taught him that standing out like a brick wall at this moment was definitely not a good idea. So, when people on both sides shouted "Fourth Tank" in unison, he decisively shrunk back.
However, his actions weren't criticized by his own people, because the commander immediately changed tactics. As the saying goes, to fight the outside, first settle the inside. If internal conflicts between players weren't resolved, how could they deal with the system Boss?
The commander quickly instructed the Whistling Heights players to delay the Righteous Swords, while hastily contacting Guild Leader Mata Xifeng to report the emergency.
On Mata Xifeng's side, Zhan Lou Lan had already fallen.
His foolproof healing, as he believed it to be, failed to raise his health bar after Mata Xifeng's decisive Charge and Stab. Zhan Lou Lan, who had been arrogantly preparing to kill that Fenyan Jing to avenge himself, quickly realized that something was wrong. He realized the problem: he had charged in too recklessly. Zhan Lou Lan hurriedly thought of retreating, but it was too late. How could the Whistling Heights people let him go? His Guild Leader title was too eye-catching; Whistling Heights was determined to keep him!
They had originally thought that the other side would desperately try to save him, but they didn't expect their opponents to ignore him and throw their Guild Leader away.
Mata Xifeng wasn't like Zhao Yuzhe, who had simply come to show off. Seeing such an unusual move, he was immediately shocked.
"Could this be a diversion?" Mata Xifeng couldn't help but think. After quickly finishing off Zhan Lou Lan, Mata Xifeng also received news that there was a problem at the Boss.
"Damn!" Mata Xifeng was depressed. Using the Guild Leader as a decoy was a bold way to attract attention! But how much time could it take to kill Zhan Lou Lan after he charged in? In such a short time, they had already caused chaos at the Boss—the newcomers were very troublesome!
Although he hadn't seen Lord Grim in the enemy ranks, it was always a shadow in Mata Xifeng's heart. Their major guilds had been tormented by Lord Grim since the tenth server, and they had never gained an advantage even in the Realm of Gods. Now that he knew this alliance was started by that guy, Mata Xifeng was worried that these guys far surpassed the big three guilds from the very beginning. Compared to Ye Qiu, what were the big three guilds?
"Speed!" Mata Xifeng commanded the team to quickly return to the rescue, while finding Zhao Yuzhe's Fenyan Jing, "Perhaps Ye Qiu is still mixed in with them." Fortunately, he had a professional player to help him this time, which reassured Mata Xifeng a lot.
"Oh? Really?" Zhao Yuzhe was disappointed when he heard that Ye Qiu hadn't been seen, but he immediately perked up when he heard this. This guy was obviously more interested in dazzling targets. For example, the Guild Leader of Tyrannical Ambition, or the Guild Leader of Righteous Swords just now, but the weight of these people couldn't compare to Ye Qiu.
"Where is he?" Zhao Yuzhe asked impatiently.
"We still haven't seen his character, Lord Grim, but maybe he's using an alt." Mata Xifeng had no evidence, but he had a feeling that the opponent's aggressiveness was extraordinary. Having Ye Qiu in command was a very reasonable explanation.
"Okay, let me ferret him out." Zhao Yuzhe said proudly. This time, Mata Xifeng wasn't annoyed, but rather felt relieved. He really needed to rely on this Best Rookie at this time.
Mata Xifeng led his team back to support quickly. The two sides were not far apart, but by the time he returned, the situation at the Boss battlefield had already changed. Gladiator Vitalius was no longer in the hands of Whistling Heights, but was being led around by the nose by Righteous Swords.
"How could this be?" Mata Xifeng was shocked. They had taken the Boss from Tyrannical Ambition and killed it for a while. It was impossible to steal the Boss's aggro in an instant! But how did Righteous Swords manage to do it?
Mata Xifeng took a closer look and realized that Righteous Swords hadn't actually taken over the aggro. They were using the Paladin's Taunt and Roar, forced aggro skills, to drag Gladiator Vitalius to their side. The main tank, who was responsible for aggro, was constantly following Gladiator Vitalius, attacking like a damage dealer. Mata Xifeng knew that they were building aggro, and once the Boss's aggro was transferred to the Paladin, Righteous Swords would have really snatched the Boss.
The situation was obvious, and Mata Xifeng saw it at a glance. He didn't believe that his commander and so many elite players here couldn't do anything about it. Looking closer, he saw that the Whistling Heights people knew the key and wanted to take it back, but they just couldn't.
Their attacks couldn't break through the opponent immediately, and their Paladins' Taunts seemed to be useless. The Paladins were confused. They were experiencing this level of meticulous observation and peak rhythm control for the first time. How would they know that under Ye Xiu's command, Righteous Swords had perfectly timed their Taunts and canceled their skills?
Mata Xifeng was anxious, but Zhao Yuzhe ignored him. He continued to jump, leaping onto a high stone pillar with incredible fluidity, and shouted, "Ye Qiu, come out and fight me!"
While speaking, he also spammed the chat. Everyone present saw it, and Mata Xifeng immediately searched the Righteous Swords' ranks, wanting to know where Ye Qiu was hiding! With such a great god commanding, Zhan Lou Lan was just cannon fodder. That's what Mata Xifeng thought.
"Ye Qiu, come out and fight me!"
"Ye Qiu, come out and fight me!"
Zhao Yuzhe didn't stop shouting, but the current text channel was being spammed very frequently. Everyone saw that someone was calling out like this. Ye Xiu, while commanding and using Boundless Nature to perform the duties of a Priest, and with Ahead of the Tide wildly bombing spells nearby, couldn't help but remind him when he saw the great god was especially busy, "Great God, someone is calling you out!"
Zhao Yuzhe was too arrogant, even Mata Xifeng himself wasn't comfortable, let alone his opponents? No one wasn't expecting him to suffer a big loss. This guy was so ignorant as to provoke the great god. Ahead of the Tide felt that this kid was simply dying too slowly.
"Okay," Ye Xiu responded.
"Tanks up! Berserkers, move to the front, Guardians, press on the rear! Where are the Holy Knights? Don't count on the Holy Knights!"
"Thieves, keep placing traps, along our retreat route."
"Mages, don't think about outputting! Use more crowd control and slowing spells."
Ye Xiu simply responded, but continued to watch the battle and command the team, while the cross in Boundless Nature's hand kept flashing, and beams of white light fell.
"Great God, someone's calling you!" On the other side, Qianye Lihua also came over and reminded him again.
"Hey, we're here to kill the Boss. Why are you guys paying attention to that psycho? Focus!" Ye Xiu scolded.
As he scolded, the battle seemed to be in a lull, without a chaotic burst of skills. Ye Xiu didn't deliberately lower his voice, but shouted with his commanding voice, which was quite penetrating in the small war, so many people heard it.
The battle seemed to have entered a stalemate. Zhao Yuzhe was standing so high and using text to spam, so it was clear who was calling out. Now, everyone knew who the "psycho" Ye Xiu was talking about. At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to the high-up Fenyan Jing, who was still spamming the chat and occasionally shouting.
The scene seemed to be a bit silent.
Of course, there was a reason for this. The Whistling Heights people all knew that this was the Best Rookie of the season, their team's hope, Zhao Yuzhe, but now, he was being called a psycho, which was a bit of a shock.
On Righteous Swords' side, they didn't know who this person was, but they were thinking, "What kind of idiot doesn't know his place, daring to call out to the great god? See, he's not even paying attention to you."
What about Zhao Yuzhe? At this time, he heard these words clearly and was furious! Professional players were extraordinary after all, and they could discern the general direction of the voice. Looking in that direction, Ye Xiu's Boundless Nature was a bit conspicuous.
Everyone had a guild title above their heads, but he didn't. People might not notice this during the chaos, but now, when Zhao Yuzhe was intentionally observing, this different character was immediately spotted. Zhao Yuzhe finally found his target. He operated Fenyan Jing, and with a point of his staff, he used Thunderous Explosion.
This skill was fast to cast and had a quick projectile speed. Not many ordinary players could dodge it. The lightning flew out, and Zhao Yuzhe was a little stunned when he saw that Boundless Nature didn't seem to move. Hitting the target was gratifying, but if it was so easy to hit, then this person probably wasn't the Great God Ye Qiu. Even if he was older and retired, his game level should still be much higher than ordinary players.
Zhao Yuzhe was a little disappointed, but at this moment, Boundless Nature suddenly turned around, and the cross in his hand continued to shine, spreading the white light of healing to the other side. At the same time, the lightning brushed past him and hit the ground.
No way?
Zhao Yuzhe's first thought was to treat this as a coincidence. Boundless Nature's natural turn to change targets and cast spells didn't look like a dodge. But it was a dodge...
If this wasn't a coincidence...
Zhao Yuzhe's mind turned, and Fenyan Jing casted a moving spell and jumped off the stone pillar, just like he did against Jiang You's Wanderer Gale back then.
