Hu Die Lan
Chapter 1103 Catch Him Before He Arrives
Because the terrain was too narrow, several guilds that might have been fighting at any second could only squeeze together intimately at this moment. Everyone looked at each other, secretly ready with their skills, aiming at their targets. As long as the team gave an order, they would definitely not be at a loss.
Yu Wenzhou originally wanted to consider a more secure method, but after listening to Huang Shaotian and Lu Hanwen's conversation, he deeply agreed with Lu Hanwen's judgment. Ye Xiu probably didn't have any information about the Shadow Army Advisor Shahan's respawn, and just casually sent a message to Huang Shaotian. As a result, this reply basically exposed him. Huang Shaotian ran to the Leping Mountains, what other reason could there be besides the Boss respawning?
"Happy has a great demand!" Yu Wenzhou muttered to himself. He was quite clear about the grassroots team's lineup, and knew that there were two dark night-based characters. Especially Windward Formation, which had quite a connection with Blue Rain. His current Soekarno was originally that person's account.
However, Yu Wenzhou was using an alt account at this time, so he didn't have too much nostalgia. He just thought about it and then considered how to deal with Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu was undoubtedly the number one enemy. In the current situation, this guy was simply a balance breaker. Being able to act early while he wasn't around would give them a bit more security, right?
Yu Wenzhou was about to speak when he heard a voice ahead of him, "I say, everyone, let's be straightforward, how about we negotiate a solution?"
Yu Wenzhou heard the voice coming from Thunderclap, and roughly guessed who was speaking. He smiled and casually replied, "Are you in a hurry?"
"While that guy isn't here, I think everyone understands what I mean," Xiao Shiqin said.
"Hmm… agreed." A woman's voice from Misty Rain stated, the Misty Rain captain, Chu Yunxiu.
"Hmph…" Someone from Howling Heights snorted coldly. Tang Hao knew who these people were alluding to, and he didn't take their fear seriously.
"What kind of plan?" Someone from 301 asked, their team captain Yang Cong. 301's strength was relatively weaker here, so they didn't have the upper hand if they were to fight head-on. Therefore, they were more hopeful for a negotiated solution.
At this time, the people from Blue Rain, Thunderclap, Misty Rain, Howling Heights, and 301 were present. So far, the captains had all expressed their opinions. Although Tang Hao's cold snort didn't explicitly agree, he didn't express any clear opposition, so everyone took it as a default.
"Let each team send one person for a solo battle!" Yu Wenzhou suggested first.
"Objection!" Xiao Shiqin immediately shouted. Solo battles seemed quite fair, but it also depended on the number of people on each side! Blue Rain had Huang Shaotian, an absolute solo powerhouse, so their chances of winning were naturally higher. Thunderclap could also fight, it wasn't like they would be crushed by Huang Shaotian, but their chances of winning would be less. The situation was similar for the other teams, right? Yu Wenzhou's proposal seemed fair on the surface, but in fact, Blue Rain had the advantage.
"Objection!" As expected, Misty Rain's Chu Yunxiu also expressed her objection, also out of the same consideration as Xiao Shiqin.
"A solo battle it is then!" Howling Heights' Tang Hao wasn't afraid and gladly accepted.
Yang Cong was quite hesitant at this time. His chances of winning a solo battle weren't great either, but compared to fighting as a whole, it was a plan that would increase their chances of winning for 301. Huang Shaotian and Tang Hao were much bigger names than him, but in a one-on-one fight, no one could say they could win for sure.
"We can't have a擂台赛 *lei tai sai* (擂台赛, a series of one-on-one matches), right? That would take too much time," Yu Wenzhou laughed. Seeing that two teams objected, he knew that solo battles would definitely not be accepted.
"Then let's do it quickly, roll the dice!" Xiao Shiqin said.
"It's too absurd to decide by luck. We should compete based on strength." Tang Hao immediately objected to the roll dice proposal.
"Hahaha, I seem to have heard that Tang Hao is particularly unskilled at rolling dice! I heard he usually hovers below 50 points, is that right?" Another voice came from Blue Brook Pavilion. Huang Shaotian speaking at this time was already quite restrained.
Originally, it was the captain-level figures who were talking, and the other players were being particularly careful to keep quiet. As soon as Huang Shaotian said this, a chorus of whispers rang out. Obviously, this was gossip that everyone had never heard of.
"What kind of skill is rolling dice!" Tang Hao said angrily.
"Haven't you heard that luck is also part of strength? For example…"
"Why don't we do it this way!" Chu Yunxiu interrupted Huang Shaotian mercilessly, if that guy finished his example, Ye Xiu would probably have arrived.
"Each of us sends a few people to form a team to kill the Boss, compete for output, and whoever has the highest output will get the Boss in the end," Chu Yunxiu said.
"Hmm, this method is good," Yu Wenzhou took the lead in agreeing.
"It's okay, in this case, I think each team should send five people," Xiao Shiqin said.
"Who will control the aggro? How will healing be calculated?" Tang Hao asked.
"The aggro will be handled by a dedicated person, and will not be included in the output statistics. Each team will be responsible for their own healing. Anyone who causes an *ot* (over-taunt, drawing the enemy's attention) will be disqualified," Chu Yunxiu was also a decisive person, and quickly explained the entire plan.
"Well, in that case, I think each team should only send three people to be responsible for output. Any more and it's likely to cause conflict," Yu Wenzhou said. Five people per team would be a 25-person output team. It would be fine if they were all ranged, but if there were more melee classes, they would need to coordinate to maintain their positions. But now it was a competition for output, so don't expect others to voluntarily give you their position. In this case, there would inevitably be a lot of collisions. Although they couldn't attack each other in the same team, there would probably be a lot of blocking and deliberate obstruction.
"That's just right! It's more interesting with more competition!" Chu Yunxiu said.
Yu Wenzhou's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Did this woman have some kind of trick up her sleeve? At the same time, Yu Wenzhou saw Xiao Shiqin's mechanic also turn his view towards his warlock.
They were just game characters, so there was no need for eye contact, right? But it seemed like you also had reservations about Chu Yunxiu's plan? Yu Wenzhou thought to himself, but he couldn't find any reason to object to Chu Yunxiu's plan, at least not like his solo battle plan, which had an unspoken bias.
"Then let's start quickly?" Howling Heights had already picked out their team. Just by looking at the classes, you could tell that they were all professional players from the Howling Heights team.
As soon as he saw the character classes, Yu Wenzhou suddenly realized what Chu Yunxiu was planning. The Misty Rain team had more ranged attackers! Although ranged attacks could also be blocked, it was much better than melee characters not being able to find a place to stand, so she was calculating this.
So, how should Blue Brook Pavilion be equipped? This duel couldn't be simply thought of as relying on the skills of professional players, it also needed to consider using the appropriate classes to deal with this situation. It would be a very tactical competition! It seemed quite interesting?
Yu Wenzhou thought, and had already decided on suitable candidates. It didn't necessarily have to be professional players, the right class combination was more important in this duel. Just as he was about to call out names, he suddenly heard someone in the team shout, "What's that?"
"Where?"
"Above!"
Yu Wenzhou heard the voice and just raised his character's perspective when he saw a figure falling from the top of the cliff.
"This is…" Yu Wenzhou was shocked, but someone with sharper eyes than him had already seen the ID above the figure's head.
Lord Grim!
Well-known in the circle, Ye Xiu's unspecialized Lord Grim.
Free fall, 9.8 acceleration, in the blink of an eye, Lord Grim was almost about to fall into the ravine, but no one believed that this guy would accidentally fall to his death. As a result, at this moment, there were three booming cannon sounds in the air. Lord Grim actually pulled out the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella and fired an anti-tank gun at the Shadow Army Advisor Shahan.
Three cannonballs, one after another, the recoil of the three consecutive cannon firings caused Lord Grim's figure in mid-air to suddenly stop.
Then, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella opened, and it was actually the mechanic's skill, Mechanical Wings. Instead of falling, Lord Grim rose straight into the sky.
Not good!
Yu Wenzhou's heart suddenly jumped, he had already realized what was going on.
"Quick, pull the aggro!" Yu Wenzhou shouted quickly. The others also reacted at this moment, and the ranged classes attacked one after another, while the knights quickly came over to use forced taunt.
But, it was too late…
To avoid alarming the Boss, each team was of course maintaining a considerable distance from the Shadow Army Advisor Shahan. At this time, Lord Grim suddenly descended from the sky and opened fire. Needless to say how agile the Boss's reaction was, especially since it was a level 75 dark night-based Boss? Which of the assassin, thief, and ninja classes in this class系 *xi* (system/classification) wasn't agile and lightweight?
The mountain cliffs on the left and right sides of the ravine were impossible for players to climb, but that didn't stop this level 75 Boss. With a stride, the Shadow Army Advisor Shahan had already stepped onto the mountain cliff, used its momentum to jump up, and kicked left and right. In an instant, it left all the players' ranged attacks behind. Those clumsy knights wanted to taunt it, but they couldn't keep up with Shahan's speed at all.
But, could they really pull the Boss away like this?
Everyone looked at Lord Grim in mid-air in disbelief. It was impossible for player characters to completely fly to the top of this cliff, right? Whether it was the assassin's Sky Leap, the mechanic's Mechanical Wings, the witch's Broom Mastery, or the summoner's Little Flying Dragon, these class skills could help the class reach a height that general classes couldn't, but it wasn't enough to fly to this high cliff, right?
Yes, these classes couldn't do it either. But the problem was, Ye Xiu's Lord Grim was an unspecialized character. If he used all these class skills, this height…
Although most of these skills weren't low-level skills below level 20, the fact that the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella could be equipped with different skills in different forms wasn't a secret anymore, right?
Sure enough, after Mechanical Wings, Lord Grim jumped again in mid-air, obviously using the ability that could only be used with Sky Leap. Then, he fired another shot, and the Gun Fu propelled the character diagonally upwards a bit. Lord Grim waved his hand, and the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, no one knew what form it was in, was inserted into the mountain cliff. Then, the character swung, stepped on it, used the momentum to jump, and at the same time, pulled, and the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella flew out of the mountain cliff.
Damn! This umbrella even has the function of a ninja sword? Everyone looked up, all with blank expressions.
