Hu Die Lan
Chapter 1328 Despair and Terror
In the first half of the season, although they repeatedly failed to win against strong teams, the H嘯 team's strength was still very solid and powerful against mid- and lower-tier teams. This allowed people to retain a glimmer of hope for them.
But now, Team Magical.
Even if this team had some unexpected performances, it could only show that they had a certain level of strength. With 102 points and a 12th-place ranking halfway through the season, such a record was hardly deserving of the title of "strong." This was a typical mid-tier team's performance.
But now, against such a mid-tier team, H嘯 had lost.
This was tantamount to tearing off their last fig leaf. The question of whether the H啸 team could achieve results was growing larger and larger. At the post-match press conference, H嘯 captain Tang Hao was furious, severely criticizing the team for not working hard enough.
But was the H嘯 team's problem really something that effort could solve?
The matter was probably not that simple! Glory was not something that could be solved with effort alone. In addition to effort, you also needed the right methods. What the current H嘯 team lacked was not effort, nor a belief in victory, but the method to win. Especially in team competitions.
The original H嘯 team's key to victory was their waisuo liu (ambush/dirty play) style. Now they had thrown away that key, but had not equipped themselves with a new key that could continue to unlock the lock. A bunch of locksmiths were busy tinkering there, but they just couldn't open the door to victory.
"Come on, work hard, cheer up, we can't lose!" These morale-boosting words could not fundamentally solve the problem.
What should H嘯 do?
In the pre-match edition of the Electronic Athletics Weekly the following week, H嘯 appeared on the front page with such a large headline. After discussing the personal strengths of An Wenyi's weakness and Bai Shu's strength, the team's strength began to become a new topic of concern.
The H嘯 team itself was also receiving a constant stream of protests from fans. The H嘯 team urgently needed a convincing victory. Then, their chance came. In the twenty-fifth round, the H嘯 team would face the Samsara team at home.
Was this convincing power... a bit too much?
Some of the H啸 team's players were feeling the urge to eat their account cards.
"This is the best opportunity." Their captain, Tang Hao, appeared before them fearlessly.
"What could be more convincing than defeating the Samsara team?" Tang Hao said.
"Everyone cheer up. Let's use this battle to show everyone what our H嘯 team is really like." In the pre-match preparation room, Tang Hao motivated his teammates.
But the H嘯 team's players were already a little numb to these words.
On the stage, individual competition, three matches, lose, lose, lose.
Boos filled the stadium. Was it going to be this bad already in the individual competition?
Tang Hao's face was ashen, but what could he do? He no longer knew...
Soon, the stage competition ended. The scene was no longer just booing. Some viewers had already begun to leave early. They were unwilling to even watch the main event, the team competition, and used this method of leaving to give the team the strongest protest.
After the individual events, the H啸 team was behind 0-5.
Following the match with Xingxin, was this another time they were going to be swept 10-0? At least last time it was Xingxin's home court, but this time, this time they were being swept on their own doorstep. They had completely lost face.
When the team competition began again, the cheers for the Samsara team drowned out those for H嘯. What made the H啸 team even more disgraced was that these cheers for the Samsara team actually came from their own H啸 team's fan base. What kind of disappointment and anger was this? The team competition finally kicked off...
At the same time, on another competition field...
"Here it comes again..." The entire audience was stunned as they watched the Zhao Hua team's healer character, 2 minutes and 34 seconds into the team competition, being killed in one hit by the Three Zeros One team's assassin, Landscape Killer.
Sheming yiji (life-consuming strike)!
And what was even more terrifying this time was that Landscape Killer did not die immediately after Sheming yiji. He was actually protected by Bai Shu's knight, Tide. Then, the Three Zeros One team's healer, Guardian Angel 007, used a bunch of healing skills, instantly pulling back Landscape Killer's life...
An assassin who completed a fatal blow with Sheming yiji didn't die?
Everyone was stunned. This was definitely a first in Glory Alliance history.
To what extent did this Three Zeros One team intend to practice this assassination tactic?
The Zhao Hua team, which was already weaker than the Three Zeros One team, collapsed even more in the team competition after losing their healer. The two sides quickly decided the outcome. The Three Zeros One team won a complete victory in this round, scoring a perfect 10-0.
Later, the match between H啸 and Samsara also ended. Samsara "lived up to expectations" by defeating H啸 in the Samsara match, sweeping them 10-0.
The Three Zeros One team and the H嘯 team, whose gap was originally only 8 points, immediately completed the exchange of rankings. Whether the H啸 team could stay in the top eight would depend on the final outcome of another team's victory or defeat.
The Hundred Flowers team, in this round, was playing against Lightweight Cut at home.
This match-up made the H嘯 people basically despair.
In the end, the Hundred Flowers team defeated Lightweight Cut 8-2, rising to seventh place. The Three Zeros One team rose one place, squeezed into eighth place, and finally entered the season's competition area. And all of this came quite terrifyingly. At the end of the nineteenth round, at the end of the first half of the season, the Three Zeros One team only had 98 points, but now, six rounds have passed, and the Three Zeros One team has 150 points. They have taken 52 points in six rounds, an average of 8.7 points per game, far higher than the league-leading Samsara team's average of 8.3 points per game.
In the nineteenth round, the Three Zeros One team won the team competition because Yang Cong used Sheming yiji to blow up Xingxin's Little Hand Cold. But to really say that they have become strong, it has been since the twentieth round. Bai Shu, the arrival of this player, has allowed the Three Zeros One team to truly have a set of tactics that has never existed in the league, built around the assassin's Sheming yiji. And Bai Shu's speed of integrating into the team is so fast that it is not difficult to see that he is a player with extremely high Glory intelligence. And the system he brought has obviously not completely released its light. The Three Zeros One team is still exploring, still running in. But even so, they have already achieved a terrifying scoring rate. If this set of tactics is completely refined, what kind of terrifying lethality will it have?
People then realized that Bai Shu's arrival brought not only an unknown master, but also an unknown tactic, which would eventually cultivate an unknown team.
"This is really a headache!" Everyone was complaining. But right now, some people don't even have the energy to complain about this.
"This is really a headache, when are we going to be ready to fight?" Ye Xiu said.
"You guys lost a long time ago. If you weren't so wretched and hiding there playing hide-and-seek, this match would have ended long ago! Is it interesting? Is it interesting? Just come out and I'll duel with you! Let's have a fair fight and decide the outcome, dare you, do you dare?" Huang Shaotian of the opposing team scolded.
Just as the various matches were ending one after another, the match between Blue Rain's home court and Xingxin had also been going on for more than forty minutes. Currently, one player from the Blue Rain team was out and five were on the field, while on Xingxin's side, only two remained, but in this situation, these two from Xingxin didn't gg (give up), nor did they come out to die quickly. They actually patiently wrangled with Blue Rain.
"This is really a bastard!" Seeing this scene, many guild leaders of the teams felt sad.
Once upon a time, in the Realm of Gods, they sent out a large force, but they were also tricked by these two guys! Seeing that the Blue Rain team was also dragged down by these two for so long now, everyone suddenly felt a little comforted.
Lord Grim, Deception.
At this time, the Xingxin players who were still alive on the field were these two. There was no doubt that facing the well-organized Blue Rain, Xingxin no longer had any chance of winning. But these two just wouldn't give up, hiding here and there, prolonging this match, which should have ended in 31 minutes, to the current 42 minutes.
"The match isn't over until the last moment." Ye Xiu seriously reprimanded Huang Shaotian, "Duel? Is that the way a team competition should be played?"
"You... what kind of way is it for you to hide here and there now." Huang Shaotian used very strong skills to forcibly turn a dirty word into an ellipsis.
"This is practice, do you understand? In the playoffs, this is to count the number of kills. Our Xingxin has already begun to adapt to the rhythm of the playoffs, are you convinced now!" Ye Xiu said.
"Convinced your..." High-strength operation was once again performed, "Do you two still want to take down any number of kills?"
"That's not necessarily true! If you have the ability, come out and fight the two of us!" Ye Xiu shouted.
"Okay! I'll fight the two of you!" Huang Shaotian said.
"Everyone else, retreat a hundred spaces." Ye Xiu said.
"Retreated, retreated." Huang Shaotian said.
"How can you retreat so quickly?" Ye Xiu questioned.
"Retreating." Huang Shaotian said.
"Okay, let me see." Ye Xiu said.
The Blue Rain team all became alert, and the five-person field of vision surrounded them 360 degrees. As long as there was a slight flicker of a figure, it would not escape their shadow.
"There's no retreat! Liar!" Ye Xiu was furious.
"You're not watching, you're a liar!" Huang Shao was also angry. They didn't notice anyone poking their head out at all. This guy wasn't in this area at all.
"I guessed!" Ye Xiu said.
"Despicable!" Huang Shaotian shouted.
"Don't waste time, find us quickly. Aren't you annoyed by playing a match for so long?" Ye Xiu shouted.
Everyone was in tears. This situation should obviously be caused by you two!
"It's about time, they should be in this area." In the Blue Rain team's channel, Yu Wenzhou had already made a judgment.
"Split into two groups, Shaotian and I will take the left narrow intersection, Song Xiao and Zheng Xuan, you will take the right, go around that big rock." Yu Wenzhou continued to arrange.
"Eh! What about me?" Guardian Angel player Xu Jingxi asked in surprise. His name was not in the split into two groups.
"Well, the left and right sides are ambushes, so you just walk up like this, as bait." Yu Wenzhou said.
"Too cruel." Xu Jingxi was in tears.
