Chapter 1446 Encirclement and Annihilation

The two melee classes from Thunder were both committed at this moment, with Xiao Shiqin watching intently, not even blinking. However, Thunder's offensive didn't weaken as a result, and Xiao Shiqin didn't neglect his command.

Perhaps Happy was just feigning, trying to divert their attention to relieve pressure. Xiao Shiqin had considered this possibility. Therefore, Sui Suifeng and Guimei Cai, who had pressed forward, weren't just looking for Lord Grim; they maintained their offensive against Happy's characters. Instead of relieving pressure, Happy had increased it by having to fight five against four due to Lord Grim's silent disappearance.

Appear!

Xiao Shiqin thought to himself. In this situation, Ye Xiu couldn't keep playing like this forever.

"Two o'clock!" Dai Yanqi suddenly called out in Thunder's channel, about to cast a spell in that direction.

"Don't get distracted, leave it to me!" Xiao Shiqin immediately shouted. He was afraid of this situation – everyone shifting their attention too much to target Ye Xiu's Lord Grim would ruin the hard-earned advantage. Seeing Dai Yanqi's Luanlu Yinchen turn its view to chant, Xiao Shiqin truly admired Ye Xiu.

Just a small trick, but it could cause major trouble for Thunder's tactical execution. Ye Xiu really understood the players' psychology and reactions. At this moment, anyone suddenly spotting Lord Grim would probably attack immediately, disrupting Thunder's tactical rhythm.

"But unfortunately, Ye Xiu's opponent is Xiao Shiqin." Seeing Xiao Shiqin's instructions in the team channel, Li Yibo said with a smile. They, with their God's-eye view, were far clearer about Lord Grim's actions than Xiao Shiqin. He had the same idea as Xiao Shiqin, but after seeing Xiao Shiqin completely see through and guard against it, Li Yibo was too lazy to admire Ye Xiu.

"Mm..." Pan Lin echoed from the side, his thoughts already wavering. This round, it seemed Happy really couldn't do it. Should he start singing praises for Thunder?

Pan Lin was still hesitating when the situation on the field changed again.

Lord Grim, exposed, suddenly began to move. Dai Yanqi's intended attack was stopped by Xiao Shiqin, but now he was charging towards Dai Yanqi instead.

"Don't panic, it's a Mechanical Tracker," Xiao Shiqin called out.

"Haha, he's seen through again." Li Yibo laughed. "The Mechanical Tracker is a different size than the character, and the traces it leaves when moving are naturally different. Many people might not be able to tell, but Xiao Shiqin is a mechanical expert!"

The little trick was useless again. Ye Xiu seemed helpless, and Lord Grim finally charged out, heading towards Zhang Jiaxing's healer, Hui Yun.

Surround Wei to rescue Zhao? (besiege Wei to rescue Zhao - relieve the siege of one place by attacking another)

Xiao Shiqin smiled. He had considered this possibility long ago!

Fang Xuelai's assassin, Guimei Cai, turned around and used an Arc Flash to intercept Lord Grim's movement. Everyone didn't realize it until it happened, but then they discovered that Thunder's team had maintained excellent coordination while constantly moving and attacking. The team's tactical execution was as precise as a machine.

Zhang Jiaxing wouldn't just stand by and do nothing. He aimed at Lord Grim's trajectory and quietly ignited a Holy Fire, hidden beneath the grass.

Will it hit?

Zhang Jiaxing had no confidence. He was too familiar with this opponent and knew how terrifying he was. This little trick probably wouldn't work, right?

Before he could finish thinking, the spot where he placed the Holy Fire suddenly flashed with a white flame.

It hit!

Fang Xuelai was overjoyed. Not wanting to miss this chance to seal a skill, Fang Xuelai had Guimei Cai use Swift Run and Sprint, instantly arriving and using Piercing Heart Thrust.

This is?

Fang Xuelai was stunned. A green-skinned goblin waved a large club, swinging it towards him. Its excited state showed that it had been whipped, otherwise how could it run so fast?

It's a trap!

"It's a goblin!" Fang Xuelai quickly sent the message. He wouldn't care about this lowest-level summoned beast, cleanly killing it in a few moves.

Goblin!

Xiao Shiqin was shocked. It wasn't surround Wei to rescue Zhao; it was... feinting east to attack west!

Xiao Shiqin, who had just understood, saw the grass tremble rapidly again. This time, Ye Xiu didn't even bother to hide Lord Grim's figure, because there was no one around him to stop him.

Sliding tackle, Charge, Colliding Stab, Arc Flash...

A series of low-level skills with movement from various classes were used by Lord Grim. Relying on the movement effects of these skills, Lord Grim's movement speed in that instant was unmatched even by assassins, let alone the Grappler, who was far inferior to assassins.

Cheng Tai's Sui Suifeng was unable to block, watching as Lord Grim instantly rushed to his target.

"Captain Xiao, are you having fun?"

Lord Grim attacked, Dragon Tooth!

After learning that the movement was a goblin, Xiao Shiqin immediately realized that he was Ye Xiu's real target. He was already on guard, but Lord Grim came too fast, so fast that Xiao Shiqin regretted it: Lord Grim could rely on skills to move so quickly; he really shouldn't have fallen for the goblin trick.

Roll!

Sheng Lingmie rolled to the side, dodging the Dragon Tooth attack. His hand reached out of the mechanical box and threw a magnetic field coil onto the ground.

Boom!

Before the magnetic field coil could release its magnetic force, Lord Grim's battle lance had already stabbed it, directly exploding it. The battle lance followed with a jump, flashing in front of Sheng Lingmie again.

Ye Xiu was the most familiar, precise, and sharp with the battle lance. His years of playing Battle Mage One Autumn Leaf weren't for nothing.

Xiao Shiqin could only make Sheng Lingmie dodge again, but the current Lord Grim wasn't just a simple Battle Mage. The distance was too far for the battle lance... the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella transformed into gun form, and an Anti-Tank Gun was fired!

Boom boom boom!

The fire of the explosion engulfed Sheng Lingmie, but at this moment, Xiao Shiqin still sent a message in the channel: "Don't worry about me, maintain the rhythm."

The Thunder players who were about to rush up to rescue were stunned, but they quickly understood their captain's intention. Ye Xiu's strong attack on Xiao Shiqin was also a link in his attempt to break the current situation. If Thunder's players swarmed to rescue him, Happy's trapped situation would be resolved, and it might even be possible to launch a counterattack based on this. To put it bluntly, it was also a variation of the "Box-1" tactic. Thunder's players had high tactical literacy and instantly understood.

"Maintain the rhythm, provide appropriate support." Someone from Thunder spoke again. It was Fang Xuelai, Xiao Shiqin's teammate for many years in Thunder and the vice-captain of Thunder. He knew that Xiao Shiqin probably didn't have much energy to command, so he supplemented the tactical plan.

They couldn't gather the strength of the entire team to save him, but they couldn't not save him either. Maintaining the rhythm and providing appropriate support meant including Lord Grim and Sheng Lingmie in the overall tactical rhythm, which was a reasonable solution to the "Box-1" tactic.

However... Xiao Shiqin's role in Thunder wasn't just as a combat core; he was also a commander. Especially in this match against Happy, he needed high-density command to adjust tactics and attack rhythm, forcing Happy's weakness, An Wenyi. But at this time, under the rain-like offensive of Ye Xiu's unspecialized Lord Grim, which could instantly destroy countless strong players...

"How is it? Do you still have time to type?" Ye Xiu even found time to ask.

The audience was silent, unsure how to express their feelings at this moment.

Xiao Shiqin... is he being punished?

When fighting Blue Rain, he took advantage of Yu Wenzhou's lack of hand speed to cope with too many changes, deliberately commanding the team to make a lot of changes in combat command, and finally defeated Blue Rain.

And at this time, Ye Xiu, this Glory textbook, gave the Blue Rain team, who had to sigh helplessly after the game, a good lesson. Was there no way to deal with Xiao Shiqin's tossing?

Of course not. The solution was simple: an eye for an eye, treating others as they treat you!

To create complex and changing tactics, Xiao Shiqin also needed to rely on a lot of command. His hand speed wasn't a problem, but when faced with such a storm-like strong attack...

"Life or command?"

Ye Xiu's question was the most difficult choice Xiao Shiqin had to face at this time.

Thunder's players also quickly felt that, with the lack of Xiao Shiqin's extensive scheduling and command, the quality of their attacks had dropped significantly, and Happy's weakness, An Wenyi, seemed to be able to support himself. After all, he had followed Happy through the Challenger League and played nearly half a season as Happy's main player. He hadn't neglected any practice on weekdays. Perhaps his talent was limited, but after a year and a half of growth, he wasn't a mediocre person either.

Thunder's tactics were broken!

The audience finally reacted at this time, applauding and cheering. And when An Wenyi could support the situation, Happy's counterattack finally came. In terms of player quality, Happy was better than Thunder, which many people had recognized before the match.

"We must save the captain!" Dai Yanqi said in the channel.

The others were also struggling, but they wanted to wait for Xiao Shiqin's instructions. At least they could type a "save," right? In the process of entanglement with Ye Xiu, Xiao Shiqin still occasionally sent out some commands.

Life or command? This was the problem Xiao Shiqin faced.

Save or not save? This was the choice Thunder's players needed to make.

But Ye Xiu seemed to know that Thunder was facing a difficult crossroads, and he launched a full-scale offensive. Lord Grim's attack was so fierce that it made people feel that Sheng Lingmie might really be killed if he made a slight mistake.

Could it be that they had reached the point where there was no space to type even a single word? Thunder's players were shocked.

"Dai, support me!" Finally, Fang Xuelai couldn't bear it any longer and instructed Dai Yanqi to provide attack support, even if it was just to create an opening for Xiao Shiqin to make a command and set the next direction!

"Understood!" Dai Yanqi's Luanlu Yinchen turned.

The audience saw everything. Xiao Shiqin was suppressed, and Dai Yanqi had to go over to help. This... this was a scene that often appeared in team competitions of top-tier rich teams, a star dragging two opponents.

This Ye Xiu, when others had stars, he played tactics with them; when others played tactics, you played stars with them?
