This area had just been explored by Blue Rain, so they had some understanding of it. This was precisely why Huang Shaotian had specially ordered Yu Wenzhou’s Troubling Rain to make a sneak attack from this side. It would be great if Happy were to surround and attack him. Huang Shaotian chose this area because he was confident that he couldn’t be surrounded and killed here.

However, he didn't dare to charge straight at Ye Xiu's Lord Grim. If he was entangled by this unspecialized, it might really become troublesome.

So, seeing Lord Grim blocking in front, and facing the sneering expression in the opponent's chat, Huang Shaotian quickly replied, "Oops, you intercepted me!"

After speaking, Troubling Rain turned around and retreated.

"Can you still run?" Ye Xiu shouted, and Lord Grim chased after him.

Everything was as expected. Next, it was just a little uncertain how Happy's other characters would choose. However, this was also within Huang Shaotian's calculations. He needed an environment with real risks. If it was too easy, it meant that the interception had no value, so why would the opponent make such a choice?

Opportunity always goes hand in hand with risk. Often, the greater the opportunity, the greater the risk. As the most famous opportunist, Huang Shaotian had a very real experience of this.

Boom boom boom!

Artillery fire suddenly rained down.

Huang Shaotian dodged as soon as he heard the sound, regardless of where the attack was coming from. Troubling Rain immediately performed two consecutive rolls on the spot, the sparks of the explosion almost touching his back. The surface of this Void Sand Sea was all fine sand. When the shells landed and exploded, the fine sand splashed up like water.

Two rolls, dodging the attack, and at the same time, finding the position of Dancing Rain.

Another one!

Huang Shaotian silently calculated the scattered positions of the two characters that had appeared so far, and then made a judgment.

This way!

Troubling Rain changed direction and rushed towards the other end. Judging from the time and the movement speed and arrival of the opponent's characters, this end should be an opening.

Huang Shaotian was experienced, and at this time he was no longer just bait. He really needed to escape. If his judgment was slightly off, he could really be surrounded and annihilated by Happy here.

Currently, he needed to deal with Su Mucheng's Dancing Rain's long-range fire pursuit, as well as Ye Xiu's unspecialized’s high-speed movement. Huang Shaotian was calculating in his mind when suddenly a message from Ye Xiu popped up in the public channel: "Leaving? I won't see you off!"

Huh?

Huang Shaotian was startled, but the sound of gunfire was still ringing continuously behind him. Huang Shaotian had no way to stop at this time, so he could only maintain his character's movement, while side-stepping and turning around.

In the distance, Dancing Rain carried a heavy cannon on her shoulder, her long hair fluttering. Ye Xiu's Lord Grim didn't chase after him either, and at this time just walked to Dancing Rain's side.

What about Fang Rui's Boundless Sea?

What about Qiao Yifan's One Inch Gray?

What about An Wenyi's Little Cold Hands?

Huang Shaotian scanned several possible encirclement points, but there was no trace of these people at all.

Behind him?

That was impossible. The opponent didn't have the speed to intercept him in this direction.

So, was the encirclement just an illusion?

Then where were the other three members of Happy? Could they possibly be fighting with the other four members of Blue Rain? Three against four? Where did they get such confidence? And if that was really the intention, then Ye Xiu's words would have been a bit too talkative, with a hint of self-exposure!

This guy wouldn't do such a thing! This was Huang Shaotian's deep-rooted understanding of Ye Xiu. And there was no way to stop the match to think slowly. This awareness immediately made Huang Shaotian make a judgment instinctively: he let me go willingly? Okay, then I'll really go willingly!

Huang Shaotian didn't change Troubling Rain's route and continued to rush in this direction. After he could no longer see Lord Grim and Dancing Rain behind him, he immediately changed direction, switched to another route, and cut back.

"Knew you'd come back." As a result, not far after cutting back, Lord Grim once again went around from the side and intercepted him.

A trap?

Huang Shaotian was extremely alert. He had been on guard against this. So when he saw Lord Grim appear, the opponent he thought of was not one, but five!

When Troubling Rain took the first step, he was carefully paying attention to the terrain, making predictions. At this time, he didn't even do his favorite thing of talking back, and immediately controlled Troubling Rain to rush towards the direction he had chosen.

This was what he considered the best choice to break out of the five-person encirclement.

"Don't run! One-on-one!" Ye Xiu shouted.

"Who believes you?" Huang Shaotian left a sentence, and Troubling Rain ran away quickly.

But next, he didn't encounter any obstruction.

This isn't right!

Even though this was the best choice he judged to break through, it didn't mean that he could get rid of them so easily. This situation could only mean one thing: there really wasn't an ambush here, it was really just Ye Xiu's Lord Grim alone.

Or... were they deliberately pretending not to have an ambush to lure him back?

Huang Shaotian tirelessly made this kind of riddle-like judgment. Glory matches were never just about the operations in hand. The operation of the brain was also a kind of speed. A brain that could sort out all the possibilities in an instant was as terrifying as a hand speed that soared to 500 APM. Why could Blue Rain's Yu Wenzhou survive in the professional circle with such a hand speed? It was because although his hand speed was a hard injury, his brain turned extremely fast, and he could make careful and detailed judgments in an instant.

Going back would mean re-entering the trap; running away directly would mean that no purpose was achieved.

So, detouring, Huang Shaotian's Troubling Rain detoured again, trying to find another direction to approach Happy and find out their tactical intentions.

"How is it?" At this time, Yu Wenzhou was also asking Huang Shaotian for front-line news in Blue Rain's team channel.

"Three people haven't been seen." Huang Shaotian knew that the competition wasn't child's play, and it wasn't the time to save face. Fang Rui, Qiao Yifan, and An Wenyi's characters had indeed not been seen since he detoured to lure the opponent. It seemed impossible to fight three against four, but he also had to remind his team to be careful. They had no intelligence about the whereabouts of these three people right now.

"What's the situation now?" Yu Wenzhou asked.

"I'm trying to find out," Huang Shaotian said.

This place was already considered the junction of the northern and eastern ancient city ruins that Blue Rain had refreshed, and it had almost the characteristics of both terrains. The incomplete traces of the ancient city were scattered in this not-so-dense small forest. Huang Shaotian guessed his current movement direction from Ye Xiu's Lord Grim's previous position. Troubling Rain weaved through the forest, rotating his vision to observe 360 degrees at all times.

This time, it seemed necessary to have a little substantial contact.

Huang Shaotian calculated in his heart. His previous two actions were relatively cautious because he didn't dare to try rashly. Running away as soon as he saw the opponent made him unable to figure out the opponent's reality. After two times, Huang Shaotian had begun to suspect whether the opponent was besieging him with the entire team. He needed to verify this, so the most direct way was to put himself in a more dangerous environment and completely trigger the opponent's ambush or trap.

Huang Shaotian remembered as many details and characteristics of the terrain he had passed through as possible. These would all be relied upon to solve thorny problems he would face next.

Almost, they should meet!

Huang Shaotian had also been mentally simulating the route and speed that Ye Xiu's Lord Grim would take to move in this direction. He estimated that they should be colliding in this area, unless Lord Grim had been chasing Troubling Rain's tail all along, but obviously he hadn't.

Over there!

A figure flashed out, and Huang Shaotian recognized it as Lord Grim at a glance. After a glance at this terrain, Troubling Rain immediately rushed up quickly.

Triple Slash!

Troubling Rain cut out diagonally, the faint blue sword light flashing, and blocked in front of Lord Grim in a blink of an eye.

Ground Fissure Wave Sword!

Lord Grim immediately drew his sword from the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella to counterattack, the sword wind rolling. And the ground in this small forest was still covered with fine sand. When swept by the Ground Fissure Wave Sword, it flowed with great delicacy.

Huang Shaotian wouldn't appreciate this. The Triple Slash had already been forcibly cancelled. Troubling Rain took a step horizontally and continued to block in front of Lord Grim, and the sword light of a Draw Sword had already flashed out with this step.

Clang!

Lord Grim hurriedly stood his sword in front of him, forcibly blocking the blow with the Guard skill.

Huang Shaotian didn't rush to add more attacks.

He wasn't here to decide the outcome. His purpose was to figure out Happy's entire team's tactical intentions. When he blocked Lord Grim's attack, he was more concerned about the surroundings. Were there any other Happy characters who immediately rushed out to besiege him?

No!

Even Su Mucheng, who had been following Ye Xiu before, had lost track at this time.

Four against four?

Were they preparing to launch an attack on the ancient city ruins?

Regardless of how Happy had determined that Blue Rain was hiding there, Huang Shaotian was already prepared to send a reminder message, but then he saw Ye Xiu say, "Now you have nowhere to run, right?"

Was there an encirclement?

Huang Shaotian subconsciously became alert and swept left and right again.

Damn it, more bluffing!

Huang Shaotian cursed inwardly and hurriedly sent a message back to his teammates: "Happy might be coming over, be careful."

Over here, Ye Xiu continued to say, "What are you looking around for? Thinking there's an encirclement? Too arrogant. Do I need an encirclement to deal with you? Isn't just me enough?"

Box-1?

Huang Shaotian just thought about it subconsciously, and immediately knew it was impossible.

The Box-1 tactic was not suitable for Blue Rain because their core player, Huang Shaotian, was different from the core players of other teams.

The tactical intention of Box-1 was to drag an important member of the tactical system out of the system. But Huang Shaotian was already wandering outside the tactical system. What was the point of dragging him away?

On the contrary, if Ye Xiu was held back here by Huang Shaotian, wouldn't the damage to Happy's team be greater?

Four against four, Blue Rain wouldn't lose to anyone casually because they were simply too used to this mode of four-person combat without Huang Shaotian. Many times, they even defended against the opponent's five-person charge with four people. Wasn't a simple four-on-four even easier?

But this obvious problem, could the guy in front of him not understand?

What exactly was Happy's intention? Huang Shaotian realized that his reconnaissance trip was really a failure.

Wait...

Reconnaissance failed?

Huang Shaotian suddenly woke up. Happy's intention was actually to counter-contain him! It was to prevent them from exposing their actions by containing his movements.

Yes, that was it! Huang Shaotian was depressed. He had come out to try to contain the opponent, but in the end, he was counter-contained by the opponent.
