When Liu Zeshen returned to the bench, he received unanimous applause from his teammates.
“Well played.” Shen Changyu said with a smile, standing up from his seat, and on the other side, Chen Anqi also stood up at the same time.
“Yo, you two lover birds, fight hard. If you don’t score these two points, don’t dare to come back, Vice Captain Shen.” Xu Yiming said teasingly.
“Ahem, I’ll do my best, I’ll do my best!” Shen Changyu glanced at Chen Anqi and cleared his throat.
“These youngsters.” Lin Xiao massaged You Jing’s arm to loosen his muscles, grumbled with a smile, then turned around and asked, “How is it? You should be almost recovered, right?”
You Jing glanced at him: “You’ll know in a minute.”
Zou Qiguan’s soft voice was heard: “Master, come on! We will definitely win this game!”
At this moment, the big screen in the center of the arena was displaying both lineups. When the Black Rose player ID appeared, it created quite a stir.
You Jing! For the first time since the start of the competition, You Jing was finally officially playing!
The wait was over! The Chinese fans were so excited that all their attention fell on the Black Rose bench and they started shouting deafeningly in their excitement.
Faced with such enthusiasm, You Jing just took a deep breath and said to the other two, “Let’s go.”
In this small team match, the players sent by Team UG were the gunners Song Won Ki and Jung Joon Young, as well as the priest Lee Sung Hwa.
Gunners, gunners again!
Team UG has always been famous for having many gunners, but in this kind of small team competition, it was very rare to have two playing at once.
I’m afraid there’s a conspiracy! Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes when he saw such a lineup, then glanced at the pics of their own players, and suddenly smiled again.
So what if there is a conspiracy? No matter how big the conspiracy was, it can’t defeat our Miss Chen.
Players from both teams entered the battle room and began the map selection process. Everything seemed to be in order, but when the last map remained, there was a big commotion in the arena.
Polar Icefield! After the UG team’s last ban, the map left for the battle was actually the Polar Icefield!
After seeing both sides’ configurations, the fans who supported the Black Rose team fell silent. This kind of snowfield map with almost no natural obstacles undoubtedly maximized the advantages of the opponent’s two long-range gunners. Furthermore, the Black Rose team had an assassin who was supposed to use the terrain to carry out a sneak attack.
As the map was imported, players were refreshed at the spawn points on both sides. At the same time, they all began to move very actively, quickly approaching the center of the map.
The most important feature of the Polar Icefield map was that it was extremely repetitive. Almost no matter which position was captured, there was the same scene of heavy snowfall, ice, and snow, very similar everywhere, and it was extremely difficult to find a distinct landmark.
When the two sides came into each other’s sight, the gunners took advantage of their attack range and started shooting immediately. The gunshot that shook the sky became the official signal to start the small team match showdown.
Faced with the opponent’s crazy volley, Chen Anqi’s assassin jumped out of the way, glanced around, and said on the voice channel: “Hurry up.”
“Understood!” Shen Changyu did not stop for a moment. With a wave of the summoner‘s staff, some mounds rose around, and several gophers suddenly appeared, hopping comically in place for a few moments before bending down and drilling straight into the snow.
“I’ll go, you cover!” UG team players, followed the opponent’s movements, and Song Won Ki made a decision. After arranging for his teammates to perform cover operations, he raised his gun and fired without stopping, and even increased the firepower by a few points.
This powerful offensive belonged to the group attack category, so the blood volume of the three opponents was constantly decreasing.
You Jing always kept an eye on the opponent’s direction and released his healing skills without hesitation. After applying a continuous blood recovery skill on Chen Anqi’s assassin, he gave Shen Changyu’s summoner a small bonus skill. Then he applied a defensive special effect to himself, and after stabilizing the status of the three of them at the same time, he slowly released a group bonus to ensure the stability of the overall status value.
These series of operations were as smooth as flowing water. Even if Jung Joon Young’s gunner was harassing him unscrupulously, it did not affect his healing operation while moving and dodging at all.
The opponent’s priest must be killed, otherwise, it will be absolutely impossible to kill the other two characters! The UG team’s players quickly realized this. After a moment of hesitation, the two gunners moved forward quickly, with full firepower. This time, the target coordinates were all on You Jing’s priest.
The beasts summoned by Shen Changyu also rushed one after the other, forming an airtight wall of flesh between the two sides. After blocking the offensive of the two gunners for a while, it became difficult to withstand the indiscriminate line of fire, and cracks began to appear.
“Be careful, their assassin is gone!” Lee Sung Hwa, the priest of the UG team, was watching the battle from the rear. Looking at the overall situation from this position, he had already spotted Chen Anqi, who had disappeared from view.
“Copy that!” The two people on the front line responded, slightly adjusting their positions in a straight line, one on the left and one on the right, so that they could cover each other in the face of sudden attacks at any time.
After forcibly charging through Shen Changyu’s Summoning Array, they continued to frantically force their way toward the priest, who had already begun to retreat.
In You Jing’s parameters, the blood volume was fluctuating somewhat alarmingly. His fingertips rapidly tapped on the keyboard as he looked at the camera on the big screen, but his face remained calm and serene. At this moment, his eyes scanned his surroundings and he asked in a quiet tone, “Haven’t you finished yet?”
“It’s done!” After a short pause, Shen Changyu’s voice came through the voice channel with a sigh of relief. In just the first minutes of the game, his back was drenched in sweat, as if he had gone through an exhausting battle.
As his words fell, the snow in front of the two gunners suddenly shook, and collapsed a moment later, thus adding a huge pit to the boundless plain just like that.
“Chasing like this, you’d better watch out not to fall into a pit.” Chen Anqi’s words, half-smiling, came out softly.
As soon as the words fell, there were two loud bangs in quick succession. The live broadcast on the big screen showed that the gunners,Ā caught off guard, failed to brake in time and fell straight into the snow pit, ending their fierce pursuit.
Song Won Ki: “…”
Jung Joon Young: “…”
The audience: “⦔
Lin Xiao: “Hahahahahahaha!!!”
Xiao Li, who had already regained his spirit after Liu Zeshen had scored a point, felt that Lin Xiao’s unabashed laughter had attracted a lot of hateful eyes, and he hurriedly poked him twice with his elbow: “Brother, keep a low profile!”
“Low profile, cough, keep a low profile!” Lin Xiao smiled and coughed as a cover, then happily continued to watch the game.
Compared to the pleasant atmosphere on the Black Rose side, the air pressure in the UG team’s battle room at this time could be described as extremely low.
Lee Sung Hwa was dumbfounded as he witnessed the entire process of his teammates being “ambushed”, and the corners of his mouth twitched, “How the hell is this even possible?”
Song Won Ki gritted his teeth and said, “Think of a way out quickly!”
His words came to an abrupt end when he realized that it was better to solve the issue of the horrifying sea of ‘zombies slaughtering the city’ in front of them than their desire to get out of the pit.
If Shen Changyu’s Summoning Array was half-focused before because he had to control the gophers to dig holes, now he could start showing his true abilities without any worries.
With the summoner‘s command, the summoned beasts one after another began to obediently crawl into the ice pit. Because the opponent could not move, this vast array looked particularly calm and fearless, as orderly as a military parade.
The first rows of summoned beasts fell one after the other under the gunfire, but soon another wave came, and this scene gave a sense of déjà vu as if they were in Plants vs. Zombies.
“There is no end to this!” Looking at the ice pit that seemed overcrowded under the wave of summoned beasts, Jung Joon Young already felt like he couldn’t stand it much longer.
Being the only one on the UG team who could still move freely, Lee Sung Hwa’s priest approached at a fast pace, trying to give his teammates a boost to their blood limit to ensure that they were still in good enough condition to seek a breakthrough.
However, he hadn’t taken two steps when a figure suddenly materialized in front of him and a scarlet dagger flashed in his eyes.
Lee Sung Hwa suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Chen Anqi’s assassin had been wandering around the edge of the battle, waiting for an opportunity after becoming invisible. At this time, she finally started the offensive. The target naturally fell on the isolated opponent, the priest.
On one side was the mighty summoning beasts’ “zombie army”, and on the other was the ferocious assassin who preyed on him.
Looking at the deep ice pit in front of him, Lee Sung Hwa grimaced.
To jump or not to jump? This was an extremely difficult question, completely unsolvable!
