Chapter 183 Final Showdown Map

Cangqiong Waste Capital (Cangqiong Feidu).

When the live audience saw the final team competition map information, Team Happy and Team Samsara also received the map information simultaneously in their respective preparation rooms.

The electronic big screen, holographic projection, TV broadcast, and the small screens in the two teams' preparation rooms were all synchronized at this time, first showing the overall view of this map.

The whole venue was amazed!

Under the holographic projection, a circular island quietly floated in the air on the competition stage, bathed in starlight.

The professional players immediately began to discuss what they saw.

"A killing map?"

That was their first impression.

The so-called killing map refers to a map with a scene that can instantly clear a character's life. The map used in the individual competition, "Narrow Road Encounter," had a "trespassers die" setting at both ends, which looked a lot like a killing map. However, because the "trespassers die" zone did not directly kill the character in seconds, and players could resist and resolve the NPC's attack, "Narrow Road Encounter" could not be considered a killing map.

At this time, the team competition map, Cangqiong Waste Capital (Cangqiong Feidu), floated in mid-air. If a character reached the edge of the map, they would fall, which was a killing design that instantly cleared their life.

The final battle, a killing map?

The professional players discussed.

The more important the match, the more conservative and cautious the teams tend to be. Killing maps have a lot of unexpectedness, so if the teams were to choose on their own, they would rarely choose a killing map in an important match. Everyone wants to rely on their own strength and effort to grasp victory, and they don't want to be constrained by this kind of unexpectedness.

But now, the final battle of the grand finals is actually a killing map?

While everyone was talking, a light curtain suddenly unfolded above the island, falling in a spherical shape, and finally connecting to all the boundaries of the map. A simple introduction also appeared, and the first sentence ended the professional players' discussion.

This is not a killing map. The shroud of the light curtain can ensure that the characters will not fall off the island.

The professional players booed.

Should have said so earlier! Everyone was discussing it for half a day.

Then the camera zoomed in and began to show the scenes on the island.

A desolate and lonely ruin appeared before everyone's eyes. Two buildings in the style of Aztec pyramids were the most intact remains in these ruins. A quiet river passed behind the two buildings, and on the other side of the river was a quiet forest. Bathed in the starlight, the trunks and branches were gray-white with a hint of light blue.

On the front of the two buildings, trees emerged from the ruins of the ancient city, quietly erasing the remaining traces of the ancient city.

The players of each team looked at the map and couldn't help but subconsciously began to formulate tactics and strategies based on their team's style and professional composition. After looking at the map, Team Happy and Team Samsara will also officially determine their team competition's roster.

The atmosphere in Samsara's preparation room had been somewhat dull. No matter how strong or confident they were, after being reversed by the opponent's one-versus-three performance, the morale was inevitably hit. At this time, everyone felt depressed.

At this time, someone needs to say something. But Samsara's captain is Zhou Zekai. He had an impeccable performance in the individual competition, but it was really difficult to get him to say something.

Samsara's pre-match mobilization is often done by the vice-captain Jiang Botao. However, in the individual competition just now, he was the one who ultimately failed to stop Tang Rou, allowing Tang Rou to achieve a one-versus-three victory and complete the reversal. He himself was the link that caused Samsara to lose morale. At this time, anything he said would probably not have a good effect. Jiang Botao obviously understood this, so he didn't open his mouth rashly.

So, as soon as they returned to the preparation room, it was Sun Xiang who spoke first.

"Everyone, cheer up! It's just one point. We can take it back in the team competition," Sun Xiang said.

That's the word, and that's the reasoning. Everyone nodded after listening to Sun Xiang, but then... there was no then.

Everyone listened to Sun Xiang's words and tried to cheer up, but the depression in their hearts could not be resolved.

At this time, the final map to be used for the team competition was transmitted.

"Let's look at the map first," Fang Minghua said.

The preparation room fell silent, and everyone first looked at the map.

Soon, the map display was over, and the simple introduction ended.

Cangqiong Waste Capital (Cangqiong Feidu) is floating in mid-air, and is very close to the stars. However, the scenes within this map are not too novel or strange. It is just another unfamiliar arrangement and combination of scenes.

However, for this unfamiliar arrangement and combination, there still needs to be some explanation and deployment. Before that, determining the starting lineup will obviously be more targeted.

Everyone realized what was about to happen. Samsara's backup players knew that it was very unlikely for them to play in this kind of grand final, but at this time, they inevitably had a glimmer of expectation in their hearts.

Who will play in the final battle?

Fang Minghua finally spoke again at this time: "Boyuan, your condition is not very good today."

Lu Boyuan was stunned.

He knew what Fang Minghua's words meant, and he felt a little sad. Of course, he didn't want to lose the chance to play in the final battle, but he knew that Fang Minghua was telling the truth. His condition was not good in the last match, and he had reflected deeply during the two days of rest, determined to play well today, but the result was still not ideal.

The team did not immediately abandon him just because his condition was not good once. They gave him time to adjust. But now, the team competition that determines the final victory or defeat, this is really not a suitable time to bet on whether he can find his condition.

"Yes..." Lu Boyuan was sad, but he had no objection. He couldn't let his poor condition drag down the team indefinitely. He accepted Fang Minghua's judgment, which meant that he would also respect the decision that might be made next.

Fang Minghua then discussed a few words with Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao, and finally announced the decision.

"Then Boyuan, you can rest for the team competition first!" Jiang Botao, as the vice-captain, finally made the decision.

"Understood," Lu Boyuan nodded. No matter how unwilling he was, the team's victory or defeat was the most important thing. Personal gains and losses could only be put aside for later.

"For the team competition, Wu Qi, you will replace Boyuan as the starter," Jiang Botao announced.

"Okay," Wu Qi nodded.

Before Sun Xiang joined Samsara, Lu Boyuan, Wu Qi, and Du Ming were all mainstays of the team. After Sun Xiang joined and firmly occupied a position, there were only two positions left for the three of them.

Lu Boyuan is an All-Star, and his popularity is higher than the other two, so his position is naturally more stable. Wu Qi and Du Ming then entered the rotation lineup.

Wu Qi did not play in the previous round of the competition. This time, with Lu Boyuan in poor condition, this player, who was also a key member of the consecutive championships, finally got the opportunity to play in the final battle. His popularity is lower than Lu Boyuan, but in the team, everyone's trust in him is the same as in every other player.

"Good luck!" Lu Boyuan was the first to go up and pat Wu Qi on the shoulder.

"I will," Wu Qi nodded, not showing too much excitement.

Du Ming felt a little uneasy at this time.

Wu Qi has been confirmed. The positions of Zhou Zekai, Jiang Botao, Sun Xiang, and Fang Minghua are difficult to shake. So, will the only remaining position let him play?

Although Du Ming often enters and exits the main lineup, his position is not stable. Lu Boyuan has been replaced, which made him feel uneasy. In the individual competition, he was defeated one-versus-three...

"Du Ming."

Just as he was worrying, he suddenly heard his name being called. Du Ming immediately stood up.

"You will play as the sixth player in the team competition."

"Ah? Oh!" Du Ming was overjoyed, but considering Lu Boyuan's mood after being replaced, he secretly clenched his fists.

After that, the arrangement of Zhou Zekai, Jiang Botao, Sun Xiang, and Fang Minghua's appearances was basically a formality. No one would think that these four would be benched in such an important match, unless their condition was truly unbearable.

"Then, let the six of us go and win back that one point!" Fang Minghua said after the final lineup was decided.

There was no passionate speech or relaxed humor. Just in the ordinary process of looking at the map and arranging the lineup, the emotions of the Samsara players gradually calmed down. When the lineup was formed and they announced that they would win back this point, everyone's spirits lifted.

For the championship, they fought all the way here. What they are pursuing is clear to everyone.

Is there a need to say more?

No need.

All that is needed is to walk onto the stage and win.

They have done this once, twice, three times, many, many times. They have been the team in the league that knows how to win for the past three years.

"Let's go!" The silent captain Zhou Zekai only said these two words in the end. From this level, he really can't be considered a qualified captain. But after saying these only two words, he walked to the front, leading all the Samsara players, those who were going to play and those who were not, through the not-too-long or short player tunnel, and returned to the competition venue.

Booing?

There was no more booing.

Booing expresses dissatisfaction with the previous situation. But now, Samsara is about to move towards the final decisive moment. What is needed is encouragement, and the Samsara fans are giving encouragement.

Applause and cheers welcomed the Samsara team players.

Not long after them, the Happy players also returned to the competition venue from the preparation room.

The final team competition will begin soon. Everyone is watching the players' seats of the two teams, guessing the lineups of both sides.

The referee appeared and began to summon the players from both sides to the stage. Six people from each team's player seats stood up.

Samsara: Zhou Zekai, Jiang Botao, Sun Xiang, Wu Qi, Du Ming, Fang Minghua.

Applause, no matter who is appearing for Samsara at this time, the only thing that the Samsara fans will give is encouragement and blessings.

What about Happy? Six people have also walked towards the stage.

Ye Xiu, Su Mucheng, Tang Rou, Qiao Yifan, Bao Rongxing, An Wenyi.
