Breakthrough!
The two characters brushed past each other at high speed. Sun Xiang, controlling One Autumn Leaf, executed a sudden stop with the Collapsing Mountain Strike and then turned around. The two were already some distance apart. Lord Grim didn't wait for the Collision Stab to finish before switching skills again.
Sliding Tackle!
It was still a skill with movement, though its speed was slower than skills like Charge or Collision Stab. However, Sliding Tackle was a Gunner skill, and with the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella in gun form, he had already begun firing.
Floating Bullet, Stiffening Bullet.
Both were skills that could disrupt the rhythm of attacks, and they couldn't be ignored. But Zhou Zekai had been paying attention to Lord Grim's movements, and both shots were dodged by Cloud Piercer.
Lord Grim was closer. Zhou Zekai had already prepared to engage when he saw Lord Grim leap up from his sliding tackle.
Using the same skills repeatedly made it too easy to be predicted. Forced cancellation was a skill that every professional player was particularly adept at, using it to create different rhythms.
Lord Grim's sliding tackle was canceled early, and the leaping Lord Grim waved his hand and tossed.
Ninja Tool. Smoke Bomb.
A large cloud of purple smoke quickly spread out, enveloping Cloud Piercer and obscuring his vision. Zhou Zekai quickly had Cloud Piercer emerge from the smoke, but Lord Grim had disappeared.
In the smoke…
Zhou Zekai didn't need to ask to know the answer. Cloud Piercer immediately raised his gun and fired wildly into the smoke. But Ye Xiu clearly didn't plan to use the smoke bomb for any complex purposes, only using the cover to continue rushing forward as undisturbed as possible.
Target, Cruel Silence!
Lord Grim's approach was also very clear. He entered from one end of the smoke and emerged from the other. The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella transformed into a gun again. He fired two shots at Jiang Botao's Wave Sword, and he sent a message in the Happy channel: "Steamed Bun, keep up!"
Not just him, but Steamed Bun as well. Happy focused their firepower on Cruel Silence.
With a clear intention, Team Samsara had to adjust their response. Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao didn't immediately move their characters forward. They flew to the left and right, continuing to attack while maintaining their distance. Sun Xiang's One Autumn Leaf had been left behind after brushing past Lord Grim, but was now turning around to chase directly after him. However, the smoke covered a large area. Had Ye Xiu done anything in this area? Lord Grim, who had all the low-level skills, could have dropped a Thief's trap or a Ninja's caltrops in the smoke.
But Sun Xiang didn't hesitate. One Autumn Leaf charged straight in, charged out.
There were no obstacles in the smoke. Sun Xiang didn't know if Ye Xiu hadn't set anything up, or if he was just lucky enough not to trigger anything. He only knew that choosing to bypass the smoke would only waste more time, making One Autumn Leaf, who had already been left behind, arrive even later. This was what Ye Xiu wanted.
Resist with all your might what your opponent is hoping for. This was a very simple way of doing things on the field. The fastest way to catch up was to charge directly through the smoke, so Sun Xiang had One Autumn Leaf do just that. It was still an unknown he could gamble on.
Out!
When he emerged from the smoke and saw the scene before him, Sun Xiang's heart felt bright. Ahead, Wu Qi's Cruel Silence was also ready to deal with this situation. He and Sun Xiang supported each other, with Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao on the left and right wings. This was a standard crossfire formation. This was Team Samsara's response. At this time, they weren't afraid of any kind of collision with Happy, because they had the advantage of having one more person.
Charge!
One Autumn Leaf didn't slow down. Sun Xiang only regretted that he had just used Collapsing Mountain Strike and couldn't charge more fiercely. But the ultimate skill he launched while sprinting wasn't weaker than Collapsing Mountain Strike either.
Soaring Dragon Rises!
The ultimate skill that Soft Mist had used on the stage was now being used by One Autumn Leaf. The magic battle aura created by Evil Destroyer was black, roaring as it burst forth.
Neither Lord Grim nor Steamed Bun Invasion could possibly dodge this ultimate skill. Sun Xiang didn't insist on hitting with this ultimate skill, but only wanted to use it to tear apart the two-man control of Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion. Cruel Silence didn't have much health left. Focusing fire from three characters could kill him quickly. Team Samsara needed to preserve their numerical advantage as much as possible. Especially if they easily lost this numerical advantage, then their health disadvantage would become obvious.
Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao strengthened their attacks from the flanks at this time. While maintaining their numerical advantage, lowering the opponent's health was also crucial, and it could also serve as a foundation for any possible changes later.
All kinds of attacks were converging towards the center.
Happy didn't have many ways to stop Cloud Piercer and Wave Sword's ranged attacks. Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion originally wanted to quickly control Cruel Silence and kill him quickly, but they couldn't ignore One Autumn Leaf's Soaring Dragon Rises. One to the left, one to the right, this dodge created an opening. Wu Qi had been waiting for this moment. He immediately cut through the middle, breaking through in the opposite direction of Soaring Dragon Rises.
Dragon Rises Head, or even, Dragon Turns Head?
When they saw Sun Xiang's One Autumn Leaf unleash this Soaring Dragon Rises, Team Samsara's fans immediately had this expectation.
But no.
After successfully receiving Cruel Silence, Sun Xiang decisively canceled Soaring Dragon Rises. This level 75 ultimate skill didn't hit any target and was abandoned.
The audience let out many disappointed sighs, but the pro players knew that Sun Xiang's cancellation was the most efficient use of this Soaring Dragon Rises, because his focus was not on attacking the opponent, but on protecting Cruel Silence.
Forced cancellation. Without a long recovery, One Autumn Leaf stepped forward.
Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion had to turn around in the crossfire between Cloud Piercer and Wave Sword and continue chasing after Cruel Silence. It seemed like they had no other choice.
Double Stab!
One Autumn Leaf stabbed at two angles with one strike, determined to take on both of them at once. Cruel Silence took the opportunity to move behind One Autumn Leaf. Wu Qi prepared to adjust his rhythm and re-establish his attack coordination. He didn't intend to fight as hard as Tang Rou, but wanted to establish himself beside and behind One Autumn Leaf, becoming a supporting attacker.
Flash!
Again, one to the left, one to the right. Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion were hot on Cruel Silence's heels, one cutting off his retreat, and the other going around to the front. It seemed like they were treating One Autumn Leaf as an obstacle. They didn't seem to be deliberately dodging Cloud Piercer and Wave Sword's attacks.
Team Samsara had a numerical advantage, and Happy also had one of their own advantages: more health.
Because they had more health, they dared to sell their health, so in this situation, they dared to be more aggressive.
Don't even think about it!
Sun Xiang had been broken through by Ye Xiu once, and this time, he had to face the breakthrough of two people, and there was also Su Mucheng's firepower support on the other side. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was fighting one against three.
But Sun Xiang's belief was still firm. He had to guard this point, he had to let Wu Qi complete his adjustment.
Battle Spear Evil Destroyer, held in front of him. Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion suddenly switched positions.
Switch positions?
Sun Xiang was stunned.
What's the meaning?
Dodging the attack? The two changed positions so that One Autumn Leaf blocked Cloud Piercer and Wave Sword's attacks.
But…
Were they taking him for granted? Changing positions right in front of his One Autumn Leaf, treating him as if he was dead?
One Autumn Leaf attacked.
But Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion attacked even faster.
Not switching positions, focused fire!
Their joint target, One Autumn Leaf!
Selling health to withstand it?
For a moment, Sun Xiang had such a thought, after all, his One Autumn Leaf still had a lot of health and could withstand it.
But this thought was quickly deleted. Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion, both were characters with control skills, and they couldn't withstand it by selling their health.
They had to use attacks to resist, to use attacks to delay time. Weren't these two selling their health? Then use attacks to consume more of their health.
Sea-Parting Dragon!
Evil Destroyer trembled, and magic battle aura scattered like water droplets.
Lord Grim's Myriad Manifestations Umbrella immediately opened up, using its shield form to forcefully take the Sea-Parting Dragon, and the umbrella surface slammed straight into One Autumn Leaf.
Shield Strike?
This skill could cause dizziness, so he had to dodge it. One Autumn Leaf retreated in a panic.
The umbrella shield was retracted, and then a hand was swung out.
Steamed Bun Invasion, Throat Lock.
"Be careful!" A teammate's reminder popped up in the Team Samsara channel.
Sun Xiang didn't panic. Shield Blind Attack, he had already realized it and was prepared to dodge it. One Autumn Leaf dodged to the side.
Steamed Bun Invasion's hand missed, but One Autumn Leaf was locked in a throat lock, Lord Grim's throat lock…
The retracted Myriad Manifestations Umbrella shield directly transformed into a Tonfa form. Lord Grim's hand climbed straight up the pole. It wasn't that Sun Xiang hadn't guarded against the possibility of Lord Grim launching a Shield Blind Attack, but he didn't expect such cooperation.
One Autumn Leaf was locked, but Steamed Bun Invasion's movement hadn't stopped, and his hand was still reaching out.
Not good!
Sun Xiang suddenly realized.
Lord Grim supported his Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, and used Shield Blind Attack to lock his throat. At this time, Steamed Bun Invasion's attack was also a Shield Blind Attack for Cruel Silence, blocking his view with One Autumn Leaf.
Hit!
Cruel Silence, who was closely circling One Autumn Leaf, mostly saw One Autumn Leaf's back. Just as he suddenly saw clearly, a hand grabbed out.
Wu Qi's reaction was too late. Cruel Silence had moved too fast before. Even if he stopped suddenly or used any skill, the inertia would have sent him directly into Steamed Bun Invasion's hands.
Boom!
Satellite Beam descended from the sky at this time.
Wind Following Waves, because there hadn't been a suitable opportunity, Team Samsara could be said to be quite relaxed about her. This allowed Su Mucheng to cooperate with Happy's offensive very freely. A big move, perfectly timed, enveloped One Autumn Leaf and Cruel Silence together. Both characters were also under the control of the Throat Lock, with a 50% reduction in defense.
Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion, while locking their opponents, were still applying various punches and kicks.
Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao hurriedly wanted to break the siege, but Stone Skin, the two Monk class characters, had Stone Skin activated at this time. Their actions could not be interrupted, making this a competition of output.
