Volume 1: The Beginner's First Cry Chapter 53: General Assembly (14)
We were nervously following the live broadcast of the game. Long Xing Tian Xia was obviously stronger than his opponent, but in order to avoid serious injuries that would affect the next final, he missed several opportunities and kept looking for the opponent's flaws, trying to win the game at the lowest cost. This was also due to our good confidentiality. No one knew the details of the "Summoning the Dead" skill. Otherwise, if they knew the importance of time to me, I'm afraid they would have to fight for a quick victory even if they had to pay a little more.
"Counterattack quickly, be careful to dodge, and hold on." Little Pepper kept cheering for the Goryeo warriors, encouraging them to hold on a little longer and not be defeated too quickly. It was six against two. The most powerful Goryeo warrior had already left the field, and failure was certain. Long Xing Tianxia, Bai Yunjian and Ba Jiugaoge were already standing aside to rest and did not participate in the attack. The other three teammates also mainly fought in a mobile manner, trying to delay time as much as possible. It seemed that they were also making reasonable use of the rules to recover the losses and wanted to retain their best condition to enter the next final.
We defeated our opponent in the last minute and won the semi-finals. We will compete with us for the first place in the finals. This is a contest between the team with the highest chance of winning the championship and the biggest dark horse of this competition. Although many critics believe that Longxing Tianxia has the upper hand, we have the advantage of numbers and there is still the possibility of an upset.
The Guardian of the Heart sighed, "The Goryeo warriors are still a little weak. If we can create more trouble for Long Xing Tian Xia, and if we can destroy one of Bai Yun Jian and Ba Jiu Gao Ge, we can feel more relaxed."
"In fact, the Goryeo warriors fought quite well. Except for the three absolute main forces of Long Xingtianxia who preserved their strength, the other five were badly injured. It is estimated that it will be difficult for them to play in the final against us. In fact, their strength has been damaged. We are led by Ah Dai, and the opponent has been very cooperative. They have given us enough time to recover. My absence has not had a big impact. As long as Ah Dai commands his undead warriors well and pays attention to avoiding Bai Yunjian's 'Thunderbolt' attack, we still have a chance to win." Yun Wuying's analysis was very thorough and he correctly pointed out the power comparison between the enemy and us.
"Yes, Brother Dai still has some zombies that have not been summoned. When the time comes, the other party will be surprised and we will have the opportunity to take advantage of them." Little Lajiao has full confidence in me, but I don't have such confidence yet.
"The opponent's strength is above ours, there is no doubt about that. Our advantage is that the enemy knows clearly while we do not. The opponent's approximate strength has been exposed, and we still have the last killer move to use. Whether we can create an unexpected effect and better exert the power of the undead troops is the key to our victory. So..." Xue Wuxia looked at me solemnly, "A-Dai, while commanding the undead to fight, you must pay attention to protecting yourself. You must leave a few undead for self-defense, and be especially careful of attacks from the sky. If there are zombies blocking the way, Long Xing Tian Xia and Ba Jiu Gao Ge may not be able to rush over. The 'Thunderbolt Lightning' between the white clouds is hard to guard against, and it is your biggest threat."
I nodded silently, feeling a little heavy in my heart. This was the first time in my life that I had to shoulder such a heavy responsibility on such an important occasion. It was a big test for me. It was easy to say, but when I really faced it, how would I perform? I really wanted to know, but I was afraid to know...
A Feng smiled and hooked his arm around my neck. "Alright, alright, my brother A Dai is just a rookie and can't stand your threats. Don't make it so serious. We have already made it to the finals, at least we are second place, we have already proved our strength. Even if we really lose, it doesn't matter. Long Xing Tian Xia and the others are really good! Besides, we are all compatriots. No matter who wins first place, it will be the pride of Chinese players! As long as we have tried our best, that's enough."
The smile on Afeng's face froze immediately. Xue Wuxia stared at him expressionlessly. These words were openly contradicting her, which was a serious "violation". I was secretly worried about Afeng, but unexpectedly she smiled and her icy expression thawed. "You are right. I am too competitive and I was a little anxious. Everyone should just try their best. Winning or losing is secondary. The important thing is not to leave any regrets for ourselves. We have fought hard and we have no regrets!"
As Xue Wuxia showed a spring-like smile, Afeng let out a long sigh, "Wuxia, don't use so many expressions when you speak next time, it's scary." This boy used to call Wuxia sister with me, but later he somehow found out that Xue Wuxia was younger than him, so he just called her Wuxia. Although he would get a cold eye every time he called her that, he still insisted on doing so. He is really thick-skinned. A pure and innocent young man like me can't compare to him!
Everyone laughed, and I felt much more relaxed. Wherever Afeng was, the atmosphere would never be dull. I really couldn't understand why that woman gave up on him. Could it be that the magic of money was so powerful? Does this mean if you don't have wealth and status, you can't find an excellent woman to accompany you for life? I once longed for love, but in the face of all this, I lost faith in love.
The much-anticipated "World Heroes Conference Eastern Division Group Finals" is finally about to begin. The contest between the most powerful team and the most mysterious dark horse has excited all the players on the scene. The cheers and cheers are endless, showing unprecedented enthusiasm. According to the latest opinion poll by Tianmei, more than 80% of the players believe that the powerful Longxing Tianxia team will eventually win the game, and that my skeleton warriors cannot withstand the joint attack of Longxing Tianxia and Bajiugaoge. Faced with such a one-sided result, we all laughed it off. Two hundred skeleton warriors are not enough, but what about one hundred zombies? One zombie can single out four or five skeleton warriors. Regardless of the outcome, we will definitely present a wonderful game.
Both sides were in a 2:5 formation. We were still led by Afeng and Xinzhishou in the front, and I was the rear guard. Two archers and three magicians stood in the middle in a diagonal pattern. The other side was led by Longxingtianxia and Bajiugaoge, and Baiyunjian was the rear guard. Three axe warriors and two knights stood side by side in the middle. It seemed that they had also learned from the experience and lessons of the previous games, and mainly used axe warriors and knights who were good at defense to fight against my army of skeleton warriors.
With the referee's order, the final officially began. The opponent quickly changed their formation, Bai Yunjian rushed forward, and the five people in the middle circled back to protect him in the center, and moved forward steadily in a circular formation. Long Xingtianxia and Bajiugaoge in the front row rushed towards us, flashing black and red light on their bodies, and had already displayed their "demonization" and "madness" abilities. Their speed increased rapidly in an instant. They were really skilled and daring. They wanted to disrupt our formation with the strength of the two of them and hit us hard with their outstanding personal abilities.
Facing this strongest opponent, we were ready to fight as soon as we entered the arena. Before the opponent charged, we had already retreated to avoid the enemy's attack. We were all afraid of the doubled agility and could not let the tragedy happen again. I hurriedly cast "Summon the Dead". Fortunately, it was successful at once, and the black light flashed smoothly on the arena. This seemed to have a 70% success rate. If I failed again at this critical moment, I would really cry.
Long Xingtianxia and his men were well prepared. They did not slow down their advance, but instead swung their weapons vigorously in all directions, trying to deal a head-on blow to the suddenly appearing skeleton army to avoid being squeezed and unable to move. This was a new tactic they invented, and it should be more effective against the crowded skeleton warriors. As expected, they were all masters and found a way to deal with it so quickly.
It's a pity that we had already prepared for this move. What we summoned were not more than 200 skeleton warriors roaming all over the field, but 100 zombies. This is also the limit of my current ability. If I could summon twice as many zombies, we would definitely win without having to do anything.
