Hu Die Lan
Chapter 1467 Nearly Perfect
"Freezing? How can this be? Is it Falling Ice?" Pan Lin exclaimed in surprise. Falling Ice was a skill of the ice-type great spirit, but the camera wasn't on Deceitful Ripples, who was running the furthest away. His figure was lost in the mist, and from Yinpifu's perspective, he was already somewhat blurry. But Falling Ice? From the audience's God's-eye view, no ice-type great spirit had made this attack. Moreover, the freezing effect of Falling Ice attack was also a probability, and to trigger it at this critical moment, the luck was too explosive, right?
What exactly was it? Everyone was still in a daze, when *bo*, another sound rang out, and the second Deceitful Ripples to rush out also became an ice block...
Two? Everyone continued to be stunned, and Mo Fan also became hesitant. The remaining scattered Deceitful Ripples became somewhat at a loss. Then, the shadow clones that had been separated were obviously not strong enough in combat and were quickly cleared by the spirits. Mo Fan hesitated slightly, but he also knew that there was no other choice. The scattered Deceitful Ripples shadow clones still all ran out.
*Bo bo bo bo...*
The sound kept ringing, as if by a miracle, all the fleeing Deceitful Ripples turned into large ice blocks.
At the same time, three shadow clones were obviously out of the control range of Shadow Dance's heart. *Bang bang bang*, they shattered together with the big ice blocks.
The scattered ice shards on the ground, together with the two standing Deceitful Ripples ice blocks, formed a circle. And this circle didn't seem so casual. It blocked Deceitful Ripples' escape while also pulling away the distance from Shadow Dance's heart, causing three shadow clones to disappear directly.
"It's Ice Line!!" Li Yibo finally reacted and shouted.
Everyone who heard this answer instantly understood.
Ice Line, a skill of the Elementalist.
Wherever the ice-type elemental mana passes, an Ice Line will be left behind. The Ice Line forms a magic barrier within one second. From then on, anyone who touches the Ice Line will be 100% frozen...
Li Yuan's Yinpifu, this time the skill attached to the magic wand was no longer Instant Movement, but Ice Line. Both were Elementalist skills, but at this moment, Ice Line had become a reversal move to save the situation. The skill attached to the weapon could play such a crucial role, it was really worth the money!
With only two frozen Deceitful Ripples, Yinpifu's spirit legion could completely surround them together. Li Yuan obviously understood the time of these ice blocks very well, surrounding them while replenishing his summoned beasts.
He didn't take this opportunity to summon the Spirit King, perhaps because he felt it wasn't necessary, or perhaps he felt that the gap created by summoning the Spirit King would be too large at this time.
When the two large ice blocks shattered and two Deceitful Ripples rushed out, the spirits immediately surrounded them.
The program director thought there was nothing to see and quickly switched to the replay that had been found earlier of Li Yuan controlling Yinpifu to release Ice Line, which was when Deceitful Ripples began to try to escape with Substitution Technique, he immediately made preparations and had Yinpifu chant to draw the Ice Line. Everyone, including Mo Fan, was paying attention to the spirits' encirclement battle, but they didn't notice Yinpifu. This Summoner himself, who seemed quite useless during the battle, became the key to finally saving the situation.
"Switch back, switch back!!" As a result, just two seconds after the director switched the screen, a colleague roared at him to switch back to the match scene.
"What's wrong?" The director was flustered, knowing that there must be some exciting battle on that end that he had missed.
Two seconds were enough for many wonderful things to happen.
The screen switched back to the battle.
One of the Deceitful Ripples who came out of the ice block was gone, and the other was disappearing...
Shadow Clone Technique!
The Deceitful Ripples who had just come out of the ice block immediately used a Shadow Clone Technique. The one trying to escape was undoubtedly the real body, so two shadow clones were left behind. One disappeared immediately because the Shadow Dance's heart was out of range, and the other shattered immediately under the spirits' siege.
However, Deceitful Ripples' real body didn't escape smoothly because of this.
After experiencing that scare just now, Li Yuan didn't relax because of his luck. Instead, he was prepared for danger in times of peace. This time, the spirits' encirclement took into account the ninja's possible escape skills from the levels.
The shadow clone was instantly shattered, but the real body couldn't completely escape either.
Lightning!
Falling Ice!
Under Li Yuan's personal control, the light and ice-type great spirits immediately launched ranged attacks on Deceitful Ripples. Both attacks were predictive attacks, blocking Deceitful Ripples' path. Especially the light-type great spirit's lightning attack, which was a row of lightning strikes, immediately resembling a wall of electricity.
Force through!
With no other choice, Mo Fan's attitude was exceptionally firm at this time. Deceitful Ripples rushed out against the lightning without hesitation. The lightning struck, but Mo Fan was lucky, and the probability of causing a stiffening effect didn't occur. But immediately afterward, a series of ice fell from the sky. This attack came right after the lightning. Deceitful Ripples forcefully endured the lightning and took this step. This Falling Ice attack was unavoidable no matter what...
A chill enveloped him from head to toe. 100% freezing effect? No. But this attack at least triggered a 50% freezing effect. Deceitful Ripples could continue to move, but the speed was reduced by 50%...
In such a dangerous environment, there was no room for him to leave slowly. The spirits immediately surrounded Deceitful Ripples again. Not the kind of thoroughness that was airtight, but the kind of thoroughness that gave no chance to escape. This time, Li Yuan took all the escape methods that the ninja could do into account and set up this formation.
"Probably... that's it..."
Deceitful Ripples' life was finally about to run out, and Li Yibo finally made the judgment.
Even under Li Yuan's careful and proper encirclement arrangement and operation, Deceitful Ripples' life was being exhausted, but it was still heartbreaking to watch.
He didn't give up, he never gave up.
In the spirits' encirclement, Deceitful Ripples charged left and right, using all kinds of possible ninja methods. Squeezing through gaps, forcefully killing, Crossing the Sea Under Camouflage, Feinting to the East and Attacking in the West... Mo Fan really deserved to be an escape expert, with endless methods. Several times, he had already rushed out of the encirclement, but recently, because he couldn't completely get rid of the spirits, he still couldn't completely escape.
Deceitful Ripples fell, but the match wasn't perfect. When he was using various methods to try to escape, he even threw a shuriken at Yinpifu from time to time.
At that time, it was a very critical moment to control the spirits to intercept Deceitful Ripples, and Li Yuan's judgment was clear. If he controlled Yinpifu to dodge this attack at this time, and relaxed his control over the spirits by one step, Mo Fan would get a chance. Therefore, he didn't avoid this shuriken and let Yinpifu take it head-on. The damage from this attack wasn't anything at all. What people felt sorry for was only that it ruined the perfect of this match. But Li Yuan didn't pursue this perfection, but chose to play the match in a more stable way, which was praised by the commentators Pan Lin and Li Yibo.
This attack became the only damage Yinpifu suffered in this match, losing two percent of his life.
Blue Rain won, a very exciting victory. There was no perfect displayed by the system, but a two percent life loss was probably no different from perfect in the eyes of the audience. The value and advantage that perfect can embody really wouldn't be lost much because of this two percent life loss.
The scene was filled with cheers. Blue Rain finally swept away the slump of the previous two defeats and took a very exciting victory.
"Unfortunately, Mo Fan lost this match by a relatively large margin." Pan Lin said.
"The gap is in the results. If we really want to talk about the field, although he didn't create any damage, what was our impression of this match? Tense! Very tense. From this point of view, we can see that this was actually an evenly matched match. Although his results fluctuated greatly, and when facing the Summoner, it was possible that if Mo Fan completed a beautiful sneak attack, he would have won a big victory." Li Yibo said.
"That's right. Although Mo Fan ultimately lost, his performance in this match was really outstanding." Pan Lin said.
"Yes, in this kind of evenly matched match, what will be the decisive factor? Home field advantage! Li Yuan's victory in this match lies in his full use and mastery of the map. His play style and his tactics are all based on this map, and his performance didn't miss anything. A wonderful match." Li Yibo said.
But the audience at the scene obviously couldn't be as objective as these two.
Mo Fan, in the previous round, used a tree to smash their top god Huang Shaotian to death, and then narrowly defeated Li Yuan. A new player, one-on-two, and Huang Shaotian was among them. For Blue Rain, this was really an extremely sad and morale-damaging result. Today, against Song Xiao, he won, making Blue Rain fans even more upset. At this time, seeing him defeated so beautifully by Li Yuan, when would they not mock him?
Li Yuan was still in the competition seat, and he couldn't hear the applause. Therefore, the Blue Rain fans at the scene only became excited for a moment when the result came out and then ended. When Mo Fan walked out of the competition seat and off the stage, the sarcastic applause, boos, and strange mocking all came.
For a new player, this kind of scene was always very difficult, especially losing a nearly perfect match to the opponent in the individual competition, which was also a burden on the whole team and put a lot of pressure on them. But Mo Fan, he was still expressionless, as if everything had nothing to do with him, just like a passerby, following the route he took when he came on stage, he walked back like this. His reaction made the audience who were booing him gradually lose their temper.
The boos for Mo Fan weren't just because of the match. The people who were distributed in the stands to guide the fans were all high-level elites from Blue Brook Guild. And the scavenger Deceitful Ripples had also caused trouble for them, and some of them had even had their equipment picked up by Mo Fan, and they still hadn't taken revenge.
Now that they had the opportunity to retaliate like this, they were of course guiding with great enthusiasm, but Mo Fan's reaction made them feel bored.
"You did a good job." The boos from the audience didn't shake the people of Happy at all. Ye Xiu stood up and said to Mo Fan who had returned, "The damage to his life isn't high, but you've maximized the damage to his mana!"
"Yeah." Mo Fan nodded, hmm'd, and went back to his seat.
