Chapter 1495 Fireworks Style

Just now, the pace was extremely slow, and it took almost three minutes for Mo Fan to close the distance. In this instant, he suddenly sped up. Retreating, turning, back-cutting—all were incredibly fluid. Almost at the instant when several Shadow Clones disappeared, a new offensive had already begun.

What about Song Xiao?

Song Xiao was still frantically adjusting his view to find Deception's tracks. Just as he turned behind him, Deception had already rushed in front of him.

Flame Slash!

Flames leaped, and the humidity in the mist seemed to boil. The attack, filled with hot air, was swift and fierce, striking Tao Luosha Ming, who had just turned around, head-on.

Boom!

The flames instantly engulfed Tao Luosha Ming.

One, two, three, four, five...

Then came a five-stage combo, and after that, Deception disappeared into the mist.

The audience's heart, which had just leaped up in excitement, was now hanging in mid-air, unable to move...

This guy, is he doing this again! The audience, already somewhat familiar with Mo Fan's style, sighed. The rapid pace he had just unleashed was of a very high standard, but it was always so fleeting. Brilliant, yet brief, like fireworks.

"Fireworks style," Pan Lin said. This name wasn't his own; it was an apt metaphor coined in the Glory forums for Mo Fan's peculiar style. Pan Lin found it fitting and immediately used it to describe Mo Fan's performance.

"Oh, I've heard of that name; it's very apt," Li Yibo said with a smile.

Two consecutive offensives. The first, Shadow Dance, was executed beautifully, but Song Xiao resolved it accurately and in a timely fashion. However, Mo Fan's subsequent change of pace in the second wave immediately put Song Xiao in a difficult position. The five-stage combo formed by five skills was beautifully executed, and by the time Song Xiao seemed to have recovered, Mo Fan had already made Deception disappear again.

Song Xiao couldn't sit still and wait for death. He controlled his Tao Luosha Ming to chase in the direction Deception had retreated.

As a result, Mo Fan simply used a large tree to play a game of hide-and-seek with Song Xiao, tricking him. Deception once again got behind Tao Luosha Ming. This time, Mo Fan didn't rest for too long, and a new wave of attacks was launched again. The sudden attack from behind caught Song Xiao off guard, but this time, he defended against Mo Fan's combo, accurately dodging the third attack.

However, before he could counterattack, Mo Fan saw that the attack had missed and immediately withdrew.

"To be honest, Mo Fan is much more skilled in this kind of style than Song Xiao," Pan Lin said, watching the match.

"Judging from this round alone, I don't think there will be much suspense about the outcome. I'm a bit worried about Song Xiao now. He tangled with Ye Xiu for so long in the previous round, and his consumption wasn't small. Now he's facing Mo Fan, who uses such a grinding style that doesn't allow his opponent to relax at all. Will Song Xiao's consumption in today's individual competition be too great?" Li Yibo said.

"Ah... this is really..." Pan Lin couldn't find the words to describe it for a moment. Blue Rain wanted to wear down Happy's Ye Xiu, but not only did they fail, Song Xiao himself was very tired in the process of wearing down Ye Xiu. Then he encountered Mo Fan, who used a consuming style of play. Not only was he about to lose, but he was also likely to be affected by the fatigue from the individual competition in the upcoming team competition.

"Perhaps Song Xiao should give up appropriately at this time," Pan Lin said.

"But with his temperament, will he?" Li Yibo said.

Pan Lin was silent.

Although Song Xiao wasn't a god-level player, he was known as a clutch player, and he often left flashes of brilliance in matches, especially in important ones, attracting the attention of thousands. As a result, the pride that Song Xiao possessed was definitely at the god-level.

Now, facing Happy's newcomer Mo Fan, facing Happy's attrition warfare used against them, Song Xiao retreating would mean admitting that their tactical arrangements for today had been a complete failure, meaning a certain degree of surrender.

Song Xiao would not give up. It was precisely because he never gave up that he always exploded in adversity, becoming the so-called clutch player.

Retreat, give up? Never!

Tao Luosha Ming resolutely traversed the jungle. After such a long battle, Song Xiao was actually able to muster his spirits again. Tao Luosha Ming's movements seemed even sharper.

Poof! Boom!

Mo Fan's Deception's sneak attack once again drew Song Xiao's strong counterattack. On the fourth attack, Tao Luosha Ming's surging energy burst out, and a Flash Hundred Strike completely blew away Mo Fan's wave of offense.

"Where are you running!"

Song Xiao pressed his advantage and wouldn't allow him to escape, Tao Luosha Ming took advantage of the situation to pursue and kill. Only by biting down hard could he possibly disrupt Mo Fan's repeated hiding and sneak attack rhythm.

Only three percent of his health remained, but he would not retreat; he would move forward!

This Happy player named Mo Fan seemed very unaccustomed to choosing exchange-style tactics, which was an opportunity for him with only three percent of his health left. He couldn't miss this last chance; he had to bite down and hold on tight!

Spiral Qi Kill!

Tao Luosha Ming's arm spun and swung out, and the qi twisted the air. Because of the mist in this map, the attack marks left behind by this skill were so clear, like a rotating pale dragon, rushing straight ahead.

Boom!

The qi exploded, but it only tore apart a substitute straw doll.

Substitution Technique!

Song Xiao quickly adjusted his character's view, trying to find Deception as soon as possible, but he didn't expect Tao Luosha Ming's feet to loosen...

Underground Tunneling Technique!

Deception soared into the air. The silver weapon in his hand, the Ninja Blade Sixteen Leaves, seemed like a leaf again. But this time, it wasn't falling, but dancing with the wind, fluttering and rising, bringing out a splash of blood, sprinkled in the mist.

Down!

Tao Luosha Ming's health was finally completely depleted. Song Xiao ultimately failed to cling to Mo Fan.

A scavenger, huh…

Song Xiao thought about the newcomer's origins. Putting everything else aside, this guy was really skilled at escaping. Song Xiao couldn't help but think of the match against Happy in the regular season. Happy was already destined to lose in the team competition, but it was Ye Xiu, plus this kid, who played hide-and-seek with them like crazy.

What a troublesome kid!

Song Xiao shook his head, stood up, left his seat, and walked out of the player booth.

Only the Happy fans in the west stand were cheering happily. The faces of Blue Rain fans throughout the stadium were filled with tension and melancholy.

Fighting on their home field, they should have had the advantage of choosing the map and worked hard to take the initiative on the field. But what about now? Blue Rain's strategy on this map completely failed to affect Happy, while Mo Fan, on the other hand, was like a fish in water, taking care of Song Xiao.

Eighty-four percent.

Deception's health was still so high. Could Blue Rain's next player handle him?

He was just a rookie player, but now, Blue Rain's fans were worried for their team. Mo Fan's strength had been valued and feared by everyone.

"Who will Blue Rain send up next?" Pan Lin said.

On the sidelines, Song Xiao came down, dejectedly returning to Blue Rain's player bench. Their clutch player had failed to come through today.

"You've worked hard. Get some rest!" However, Captain Yu Wenzhou didn't blame him at all, proactively comforting him.

The Blue Rain players at the side, with their God's perspective, grasped the true situation of the match faster than the spectators or the commentators.

Song Xiao had fallen out of the maze set up by Ye Xiu. Ye Xiu was slacking off, while he was focusing 100% on using his tenacious defense to wear down Ye Xiu. So from that moment on, it was no longer him wearing down Ye Xiu, but Ye Xiu wearing him down.

After that, he was tormented by Mo Fan's stalling tactics for another round. At this time, Song Xiao was really exhausted. But he couldn't relax yet. The team competition, the even more critical team competition, Blue Rain still needed him very much. He could only follow the captain's instructions, quickly sit to the side to rest and relax, accumulating strength for the team competition.

"Let's go!" At this moment, Yu Wenzhou called for Blue Rain's third player to go on stage.

Li Yuan, Summoner Eight Notes.

In the previous round, he happened to meet Mo Fan in the individual competition and was defeated by him in a brilliant fashion. This time, he was facing him again at home, and Li Yuan was very pleased. He needed to avenge the previous round.

"Li Yuan, add oil!" The audience stood up and applauded him. The unfavorable start made everyone very worried and anxious about the competition.

"Watch me," Li Yuan said, high-fiving his teammates. He waved to the Blue Rain audience and walked onto the stage.

The match started quickly.

Li Yuan finally changed Blue Rain's consecutive tactical positioning rhythm. His Eight Notes cut straight to the middle after the start.

Mo Fan, however, still detoured, but he used a rather strange route. He first made Deception move horizontally to the west. After walking a certain distance, he turned north by east, and then he dashed out in a straight line.

"What does Mo Fan want to do?" Pan Lin asked strangely.

"This... it looks like a plan to intercept after calculating the opponent's moving speed," Li Yibo said.

"Intercept?"

"The route choices at the beginning are nothing more than going west, east, or cutting straight to the middle. And because of the fog in this map, the detour angle cannot be large, otherwise it will lose its meaning. So Mo Fan is making the character do this kind of tangential movement. Opponents who cut straight to the middle will go the furthest south, while others who go west or east will progress south slightly slower. Mo Fan's tangential movement is probably to create intersection points with the middle and east routes along a single route. He first grasps three possibilities," Li Yibo said.

"In that case, he has already grasped them! Will they meet in the middle?" Pan Lin looked at the movement of the two characters on the map.

"That also depends on Li Yuan's judgment," Li Yibo said.

Li Yuan's Eight Notes quickly reached the center of the map. He stopped Eight Notes, turning his view to observe his surroundings.

"If Eight Notes doesn't move, Deception's tangential movement might not intersect with the two of them," Pan Lin said.

"He'll move!" Li Yibo said.

"Not only will he move, but he has to move forward," Pan Lin said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuan's Eight Notes began to continue moving towards the south end. In Pan Lin's eyes, Eight Notes seemed to be bleeding.
