Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 186: Angry? Not Angry
"Thor's Wrath" is equivalent to a human bomb, and to a certain extent, it is even more dangerous than the earth magic array set up by the wolf in sheep's clothing. After all, the speed and flexibility of a single Fearless Warrior are naturally beyond the reach of nine earth magicians. He is also a super strong man with extremely rich practical experience. Once he is determined to die with his opponent, everyone will be fighting fiercely and it will be even more difficult to guard against him. If the Yamato spirit of the Sun Never Sets in the previous quarter-finals seemed a little insufficient and might not be willing to give up, then the defending champion Tongxin League in the semi-finals will definitely be a strong opponent worthy of the Fearless Warriors to use "Thor's Wrath". As long as the right opportunity appears, they may fight us to the death at any time.
Mercenary groups in the northern continent, especially those established earlier, almost all of their official members are from the local area, with dwarves and elves as the main body, and most of the masters are naturally from them. The tactics used in the team competition are also different from those of the other three continents, with their own professional characteristics. The Fearless Team is no exception. Most of its members are dwarf warriors and elf shooters. Whether it is close combat or long-range sniping, they are quite strong and relatively balanced. Although the arms seem to be a bit single, and the means of attack and routines lack changes, they have cooperated with each other quite skillfully, and the combined power of dwarf warriors and elf shooters has been maximized. It is not easy to deal with, especially with the Fearless Warrior, a super strong man and human bomb, which makes the opponent more cautious. When formulating tactics, this must be fully considered, which is a lot of trouble.
In previous matches, if they encountered a strong opponent, most of the Fearless members would usually gather together and set up a "Stars Surrounding the Moon" battle formation - this is one of the few mixed formations of multiple professions in "Tianxia". It is said that Fearless spent a lot of money to get this formation. It consists of five people, no more than nine melee professional players, and an equal number of long-range attack shooters or magician professional players. It has a balanced offense and defense. The medium and short-range combat ability within a hundred meters is not as good as the magic formation with melee professions, but it is more flexible and can threaten enemies farther away. It is also not easy to break. The Fearless Warrior, with nine other members, was operating at a place a hundred meters away from the main team. They formed their own group and looked for opportunities to cooperate with the main team in launching attacks. They themselves possessed considerable strength, and could get long-range support from the elf archers in the "Stars Surrounding the Moon" battle formation. In addition, the "Wrath of Thor" could erupt at any time. It was difficult for them to pose too great a threat with just enough people to deal with them, but they did not dare to risk sending out their main force for siege. They were caught in a dilemma and could not exert their due strength.
Faced with the threat of "Thunder's Wrath", the United Alliance naturally would not choose to stick to one place to cover me and activate "Death's Touch" to replenish my mental power. They also dared not form a specific battle formation to give the Fearless Warriors a chance to catch them all in one fell swoop. They could only disperse and move. Even when launching an attack, they must pay attention to the positions of other teammates and not gather too many people in one area. The most important problem is to find a way to deal with the Fearless Warrior as soon as possible. As long as the threat of him is eliminated at the same cost, it is equivalent to cutting off one of the Fearless's arms. They can fight to the death completely based on their strength, and no longer have to worry about the influence of additional factors.
Originally, the most suitable person to fight against the Fearless Warrior was Afeng. If the two of them died together, we would not suffer any loss. However, considering that there were other players gathered around the Fearless Warrior, we had to send several other teammates to assist Afeng. "Crazy Thunder Prison" against "Three Heads and Six Arms", Bloodthirsty against Electric Shock Paralysis, Afeng was not as good as the Fearless Warrior in cooperating with his companions in battle. The equal number of people might not give him any advantage, and it was probably difficult to tempt him to use "Thundergod's Wrath". Moreover, facing the threat of the "Stars Surrounding the Moon" battle formation, especially the threat of multiple elf archers, the giant magician will no longer have the same effect as against the earth magic formation. The expensive holy bow with high-level holy arrows will also be unable to withstand a few more arrows. I may not be able to get the opportunity to activate the "Touch of Death", so I volunteered to take the task of restraining the fearless warriors - instead of being forced to dodge around by those archers, it is better for me to come forward and exchange the opportunity to die with the fearless warriors with as little investment as possible, and eliminate the uncertainty of "Thunder God's Wrath" early. Anyway, even if I die, there is still Afeng, the "Top Ten" new noble, who can take charge of the overall situation. Compared with the fearless warriors who have lost their fearless warriors, we definitely have a greater chance of winning.
Eight dwarf warriors, seven elf archers, and fifteen players formed a "moon surrounded by stars" battle formation. The Fearless Warriors, with two human knights who joined later, a dwarf warrior, and an elf archer, quickly approached us on the left wing, a little over a hundred meters away from the main formation. We had no way to form a battle formation, and mainly relied on individual performance, so we selected the most combat-capable members, and Xue Wuxia coordinated and commanded them to attack the Fearless Warriors. The Fearless Warriors were mainly left to me to deal with. In addition to Xiaoyue who volunteered to fight, there were two melee players and a shooter. Although the number of people on both sides was equal, with me, a super undead wizard, and Xiaoyue, a knight riding a level nine upper-level wind unicorn, who was willing to be buried with the "Wrath of Thunder", the Fearless Warriors should have taken a little advantage.
I didn't use "Blood Transformation" - I couldn't catch up with the time to replenish my mental strength. I used "Summon the Dead" many times. It would be a waste to use "Blood Transformation" after only summoning once. In addition, I might face the Supreme Honor and the Glory of Holy Heaven in the finals. I also wanted to preserve my strength as much as possible to increase the chances of successfully defending the title. In addition to Shaman and Taotao, I also summoned two bone dragons. The giant magician is not suitable for such a battle. Although he has an earth-attributed physique and a strong body, he is still a magician. He is more for the need to throw "Torch Stone Bomb". He has strong strength, but his defense ability is definitely not as good as that of the bone dragon. Facing melee professions, especially the perverted "Thor's Hammer", the bone dragon can still play a greater role.
"Sacrifice", "Unparalleled Protection", we still need to do a good job of protecting ourselves, otherwise we will fall into the hands of the Fearless Warrior before we can release the "Wrath of Thundergod". Then, riding Taotao, Xiaoyue and the other three people, we will face the five-man team led by the Fearless Warrior. We will try our best to contain them and see if they will choose to die with us.
Although the pet is stronger than the person, and cannot better exert the real strength of the knight, Xiaoyue is still a threat to the fearless warriors - faster than Shaman and the white bone dragon, and not too worried about being locked by the "Crazy Thunder Prison". Even if her own fighting ability is a little worse, she is equipped with a white bone dragon, and there is also the threat of the little white dragon's "blood explosion", so the fearless warriors cannot act too recklessly - if they cannot dodge in time, once they are affected by the "blood explosion", even if they don't die, they will be seriously injured, and the "returning necklace" must be used. The less his health, the less threat the "thunder god's wrath" will pose to us. I moved dozens of meters away, dodging the arrows shot at me with all my strength, and paying attention to moving constantly to prevent the sudden attack of the "Crazy Thunder Prison". At the same time, I used the "undead magic ring" to cooperate with teammates in attacking on behalf of the "death ray". Moreover, from time to time, they would suddenly swim to the periphery, and the two water magicians Shui Yunjian and Yin Zhuang Suguo would find opportunities to replenish my mental power. The actual effect was not very obvious, but it could increase the pressure on me and prevent them from hurting me. However, they could not leave me alone, so it was five against five, and a temporary stalemate was formed.
Xue Wuxia and Afeng were entangled in the "Stars Surrounding the Moon" formed by the 15 people of Wu Wuwei. They were advancing step by step. We had no way to form a "Seven-Star Arrow Formation" and dared not to concentrate too many melee professions to attack. We could only scatter in all directions to fight and echo each other from a distance, so that they could not find the focus of the attack. For a while, no one could gain any advantage and could not cause serious damage to the other side. The breakthrough point of the war still had to be on my side. If we did not solve the threat of "Thunder God's Wrath" first, we would never be able to exert our full strength.
The Fearless Warrior paid close attention to the coordination with the "Stars Surrounding the Moon" formation, which not only kept a constant deterrent to our attackers, so that they dared not be careless, but also kept moving reasonably according to my movements, putting me under the threat of the elf archers in the formation, and unable to activate the "Touch of Death" to effectively replenish my mental power. The power of "Thor's Hammer" also made it impossible for Xiaoyue to entangle him to death, and he could only chase him and move, unable to take the initiative in the battle. If it weren't for my presence, the Fearless Warrior would have to devote a considerable amount of energy to precautions, and the situation would probably be even more unfavorable to us.
I gave up on activating the "Touch of Death" and relied entirely on the "Transformation" magic cast by the two water magicians to replenish my mental strength and compete with the Fearless Warrior in patience - if I don't use the "Wrath of Thundergod", he won't be able to stop me effectively. If I use the "Wrath of Thundergod", I won't gain much advantage. In comparison, the remaining personnel don't have any advantage, and the chances of winning are also slim. I throw him a dilemma and see how he will deal with it.
Either rely on Taotao's speed, or transform into a bat. Although Shuiyunjian, Yinzhuangsugu and I have all received special care from the fearless shooter, with the help of my teammates, I can always find opportunities to replenish my mental strength. After a stalemate, I can use the "Summoning of the Undead" again. However, this time I did not summon a bone dragon or a four-armed giant magician. Instead, I summoned more than fifty ground night shadows, and prepared to use their sacrifice as a price to see if I can break the deadlock.
For top masters like the Fearless Warrior, who are holding the artifact "Thor's Hammer", the mid-level Ground Night Shadows of only level eight are naturally vulnerable. One skill attack is enough to seriously damage them, and the attack power of the Ground Night Shadows is also a little weak, and they can no longer cause too serious damage to the level eight professional players. But in addition to demolishing walls and breaking down houses, there is a skill that is quite practical, that is, "Swallow Whole". The direct damage is still not great, but it can spray the target out to a distance of ten to twenty meters, and has a certain effect of trapping the enemy, which is enough to buy us a good opportunity to hurt the enemy.
I secretly informed Yun Wuying and the other seven archers to move to a suitable attack range and prepare to cooperate with my actions. Then I activated the "Touch of Death". Shui Yunjian and Yin Zhuang Su Ku also moved closer to me at the same time and cast the "Transformation" magic for me to attract the attacks of the other archers as much as possible. I took the opportunity to arrange for the ground-walking night shadows to escape to the vicinity of the battle circle and suddenly rushed out from the ground. Five people in a group, one against one, launched a surprise attack in batches. Facing the expert players of the eighth-level profession, the first few waves of attacks naturally could not pose too much threat to the fearless warriors, so they did not launch the "Swallow Alive". The main purpose was to rush into the middle of the five of them, cooperate with the attacks of Xiaoyue and others, and try to separate them to prepare for the next real attack.
The first target was the Elf Archer. As a long-range attacker, she was naturally a little overwhelmed by the close-range attack. When she was trying to evade, most of the Night Shadows had already locked onto her. They rushed out one by one in order and performed the "Swallow Her Alive" move. One, two, five, ten... With her high sensitivity and agility, the Elf Archer dodged the attacks of a dozen Night Shadows, but was forced to get farther and farther away from the Fearless Warriors. Several arrows with paralysis effects shot at her at the right time delayed her movements at the critical moment, and she was eventually swallowed into the belly of the Night Shadows. The Fearless Warriors wanted to rush over to rescue her, but they were desperately intercepted by Xiaoyue and the others, the White Bone Dragon, and the rest of the Night Shadows. They even used their dozens of meters long sturdy bodies to block their way. They were unable to rescue the poor Elf Archer, who suffered from one of the tortures of "The World" - being swallowed alive by the Night Shadows.
The elf archer was covered with mucus and lost her ability to move during the short period of time when she was sprayed out. She was fiercely attacked by Yun Wuying, Nan Feiyan and the other seven who were waiting in line. All the arrows they shot hit her, killing her instantly, and she became the first casualty in this semi-final.
Without waiting for the Fearless Warriors to regroup, I launched a surprise attack on another dwarf warrior in the same way. With the strong cooperation of Yun Wuying and the others, almost all the ground-walking night shadows were killed, and Xiaobailong, who was constantly attacking to better protect Xiaoyue, was also seriously injured. Xiaoyue evaded the attacks of the archers skillfully, but tried her best to fight with the Fearless Warriors in close combat, and put on a posture ready to use "blood explosion", which posed a great threat to the Fearless Warriors. He was afraid and could not give full support, and finally succeeded in killing the dwarf warrior again. Killing two enemies in one fell swoop gave us the initiative. Even if we dragged it to the time limit, we could still win by relying on the advantage in numbers.
With two fewer enemies, it became five against three, and we were constantly facing the threat of the little white dragon's "blood explosion". The situation was already somewhat unfavorable for the fearless warrior. Would he "go all mad"? The result disappointed me. The fearless warrior still insisted on not using "Thunder God's Wrath" and tried his best to deal with us with conventional tactics. However, relying on the cooperation with Shuiyunjian and Yinzhuangsuku, I cast "Summoning the Dead" again, this time with two white bone dragons, further increasing the advantage. Although the two water magicians had no more mental power to replenish me, they effectively restrained the fearless warrior, which was equivalent to restricting the movement of the "Stars and Moon" battle formation. In order to cooperate with each other, the main formation and the detachment could not be too far apart. I could take the opportunity to hide far away under the protection of a white bone dragon and Shaman to activate "Touch of Death". Unless "Stars and Moon" abandoned the fearless warrior, it would not be able to stop my action in time.
Until the end, the Fearless Warrior did not use the "Thunder God's Wrath". It seems that when he could not gain much advantage and could not help his teammates gain an advantage, he chose to continue to retain this powerful deterrent force and strive to win the third place in the team competition, which can also qualify him to compete for the "Prince Order". Our Tongxin League won the semi-finals and successfully advanced to the finals, and will soon begin our defense battle.
The other semi-final between Glory and Blood Moon was also very intense. The "Nine-Star Continuous Arrow Formation" combined with the "Magic Forbidden Bow" caused a lot of trouble for Supreme Glory and Holy Heaven. Their attacks were repeatedly frustrated and they were unable to seize the opportunity to deal a heavy blow to Blood Moon at the critical moment. However, this was a team competition with many participants. There was only one "Magic Forbidden Bow" but many priests of light. The "Purification" magic could effectively remove the "Magic Sealing" effect suffered by their companions. Moreover, with the "Speed Wing Light Armor", "Angel Robe" and the "Body Protection Holy Light" protection of the angels attached to the Knights of Light, the success rate of the "Magic Sealing" effect could be further reduced. In addition, the angels summoned by the priests of light, like the White Bone Dragon, had no combat skills and were not greatly affected. As a result, Blood Moon was unable to continue its dark horse status and stopped in the semi-finals. In the end, the veteran team Glory made it to the finals.
Just like the last team competition, the two teams in the finals are still Tongxin League and Glory - the two teams with the closest strength in "Tianxia", and both are considered the strongest contenders for the "World's No. 1 Mercenary Group". However, after witnessing my performance in the individual competition, seeing the powerful strength of the six-armed giant magician, Ibola and Khufu, and the fact that I have not yet used the "Blood Transformation" that can summon higher-level undead in today's team competition, I still have two chances. More and more players believe that our Tongxin League has a greater chance of winning the team championship again. As long as there is no way to curb my performance, or show a stronger strength than Ibola and Khufu, the final victory will definitely belong to our Tongxin League.
