On the afternoon of the second day of the individual competition, the group match between Group E and Group H was still scheduled. Shen He's Group G kicked off at 3:30, and his opponent today was Nie Yuzhu, the captain of the Lihuo team.
Team Nie is the most low-key and stable captain among all the captains. He is also the oldest. He usually doesn’t talk much. In the WeChat private group built by Lin Shuangcheng, Nie Yuzhu occasionally pops up to line up and grab a red envelope. He never actively seeks out topic, like a calm bystander. His style of play on the field has completely inherited the characteristics of the Bronze Sparrow Club. His style of play is fierce and tough, which can pose a great threat to crispy players.
In order to prepare for today's game, Shen He played against Liu Hong last night until after ten o'clock before going back to the hotel to rest. He learned a lot of skills from Liu Hong to deal with the masters of the Xuanbing Palace. The pressure was much higher than that of Liu Hong. Team Nie's violent melee suppression made the summoner with weak defense almost breathless.
In the first game, Shen He failed to adapt to the rhythm of the game and lost very quickly. In the second round, Shen He calmed down and persisted for five minutes, but was finally defeated by Nie Yuzhu.
After returning to the lounge, Shen He walked up to Qin Mo and asked, "Master, is my level far behind Team Nie's?"
Qin Mo said calmly, "Yes."
"..." Shen He scratched his head in frustration, "Oh, when will I reach his level? I always feel that he has guessed many of my ideas. Today's fight is so tiring!"
"It's okay." Qin Mo encouraged, "Nie Yuzhu has been the captain of the Tongque Club for many years. He has experienced much more storms and waves than you. He can rely on his rich experience to defeat you, a rookie. You just learned to play the game, but you can't beat this It’s normal to be a veteran player, and when you have more game experience, you won’t be so flustered against him.”
Hearing this, Shen He immediately cheered up, grinning, revealing a pair of dimples. Qin Mo endured the urge to poke his dimples, and patted his apprentice on the shoulder lightly: "Continue to work hard for tomorrow's game, don't be discouraged."
Shen He nodded vigorously: "Yes, I know!"
After being encouraged by his master, Shen He suddenly felt full of energy, sat in the lounge and raised his head to watch the next game seriously.
The biggest highlight of Group H is the duel between Li Junru, the captain of the new Guose team, and Liu Hong, the former Guose vice team.
This afternoon, the match between Li Junru and Liu Hong happened to be arranged, and more importantly, Xu Lin, the manager of Guose Tianxiang Club, happened to come to the scene to watch the match.
However, Xu Lin did not sit in the players' lounge, but sat in the VIP auditorium at the scene.
The director pointed the camera at her very face-saving, and gave her a close-up. The commentator Liang Ru immediately cooperated and said: "National manager Xu also came to the scene in person. It seems that she is very concerned about today's group match!"
Ye Chao said very bluntly: "Liu Hong was originally a player of the Miracle Red Fox team. He should take over her sister Liu Xiang's class and become the next captain of Red Fox. Later, Red Fox was acquired by Guose Tianxiang Club, and Liu Hong followed My sister only played for more than half a year before being transferred to the martial arts project as the main treatment. Liu Hong took the initiative to terminate the contract with the club, and her contract with the club has not expired."
The meaning of this sentence is actually very obvious. Liu Hong took the initiative to pay liquidated damages and terminated the contract because he was dissatisfied with the club. The decision of the club's top management.
Ye Chao’s commentary is venomous and bold, and no one is afraid of offending anyone. Dare to say such words during the commentary will obviously anger Xu Lin, the owner of Guose Club, but he doesn’t seem to care about these things at all. He just tells the truth. Leave it to the netizens to judge.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the barrage on the live broadcast platform exploded in an instant—
"I feel sorry for Sister Hong! If you take the initiative to terminate the contract, you will lose all the income from the competition for several years!" "No wonder she terminated the contract as soon as Liu Xiang retired. It turned out that she couldn't stay in the club anymore!" "The captain of the Red Fox team should have Let Ah Hong be the leader! The new captain selected by Xu Lin has too little consciousness!" "The female boss of the domineering president Fan Er called our sister Hong around, and she simply quit, she is so domineering!"
The bullet screens became more and more fierce, Liang Ru saw the fans' emotions were intense, and hurriedly smoothed things over: "Hey, Li Junru was actually brought out by Liu Xiang himself. Although she didn't win the best newcomer award when she debuted , but the gods of the alliance spoke highly of her, and Liu Xiang also praised her every time she was interviewed. We thought she would succeed Liu Xiang's class and become the captain of the Red Fox. Unexpectedly, she would lead the team to the unique Jianghu development."
Regardless of the grievances between the club's senior executives and Liu Hong, but Li Junru is innocent, Liang Ru quickly brought the topic back to life: "Aside from the factors behind it, the two players need to show their strength in this match. For a fair duel, let’s first analyze the characteristics of the two players. Li Junru is the champion of the Fangcaotang Poison Attack Style Competition. She plays very calmly and calculates skill damage quite accurately. Her weapon 'Iris' is a green The medicine basket has engravings of iris flowers on it, and the additional attribute is 'increasing the duration of the negative state of poisoning by 2 seconds'."
Ye Chao said: "This additional attribute is very useful. As long as you stack a few layers of poison on the opponent, the negative effect will increase the damage for 2 seconds, and the damage will be very impressive."
Liang Ru nodded and said: "Li Junru is using the typical poison attack style of constantly superimposing poisoning, while Liu Hong's weapon 'Spirit Bird' is a rare gold and silver double ring, and the big and small rings have protrusions similar to birds. The part can be held in the hand, and the shape is very beautiful. Her weapon uses attack speed and deceleration, which is obviously a speed flow route."
The director just called up the pre-match prediction platform, and the audience found that Liu Hong's support rate was as low as 20%.
Liang Ru explained: "Liu Hong's popularity is not low. The low support rate in this competition is obviously because she used to be a healer. Many netizens are still skeptical about her transformation. In addition, Li Junru won the sect group arena. Liu Hong did not win the championship of Fangcaotang's Poison Attack Stream, and most netizens felt that Li Junru had a better chance of winning."
Ye Chao echoed: "After all, Liu Hong has been a healer for three years, and I don't really believe in her strength because of the sudden switch to output. Whether she can win against Li Junru depends on her performance today."
At this moment, Liu Hong and Li Junru walked onto the big stage one after another, shook hands with each other politely, and went back to the soundproof room to sit down.
Although Liu Hong and the top executives of the Guose Club are not at odds, she is not disgusted with Li Junru, and there is no need to act like an enemy in front of everyone.
***
After the two men adjusted the equipment, they began to cast points. Liu Hong randomly rolled the dice and cast 95 points, Li Junru only rolled 60 points, and Liu Hong chose the map first.
Liu Hong chose a classic trap map "Purple Bamboo Forest". This map is full of purple bamboos and purple bamboo leaves on the ground. The biggest difference between it and ordinary bamboo forests is that the bamboo leaves are There are actually many giant pit traps on the ground under the cover. Once you step on it, you will fall into the trap.
After the start of the game, the two sides refreshed at the corner of the map. Liu Hong quickly came to the center of the map with his martial arts, and Li Junru was not far behind. !
The effect of this set of poison attack combos is to blind the hostile targets within the range. Affected by the state of blindness, Liu Hong's computer screen is immediately blacked out.
But Liu Hong did not panic, but continued to walk five meters forward.
The Zizhu Forest map is densely covered with traps, and it is easy to step on the ground and fall, but professional players have an extraordinary understanding of the map. Even in the state of blindness, Liu Hong knows where there are traps and where is safe near this coordinate. Driving forward quickly with lightness kung fu is to narrow the distance with Li Junru.
Li Junru quickly pressed the double combo of Heartbroken Grass and Tripterygium vine, and the poisoned state on Sandianshui's body was superimposed to four layers in one breath!
Four layers of poisoning will lose 8% blood per second, which originally lasted 4 seconds, but Li Junru's weapon bonus will last 6 seconds, that is to say, Liu Hong will lose 48% blood after the damage is calculated!
The first-mover advantage of this wave of poisonous attacks is still very large.
After the blindness effect ended, the purple bamboo forest appeared in front of Liu Hong's eyes. Li Junru immediately backed away when she saw her approaching. However, Liu Hong decisively threw out the silver ring in his hand—the still water flows deep!
In addition to causing a lot of damage to the opponent, this skill also has another purpose - to disable the opponent's light work for 5 seconds.
Li Junru, who was banned from lightness kung fu, couldn't move quickly, Liu Hong immediately chased her, and quickly circled around at the speed of the wind, and threw the big golden ring in her hand to her feet at the same time, laying down a series of traps around her!
With the explosion of the trap, Li Junru's blood was also exploded by 60% in one breath!
What makes Li Junru even more uncomfortable is that Liu Hong has set up traps behind her, forcing her to fight head-on with nowhere to go.
Li Junru had no choice but to use the poison attack skill with the shortest cooldown time, Tripterygium vine, to stack poison on her body. This time, she only stacked three layers before being interrupted by Liu Hong's "interlocking" move!
Compared with Li Junru's calm long-range kite style, Liu Hong's style of play is obviously more vicious.
The audience saw her throwing the gold and silver double rings one after another extremely fast, and the left and right weapons cooperated very tacitly. The gold ring placed traps on the ground to control the opponent's movement, and the silver ring hit the opponent's weak point like a torrential rain. In the blink of an eye, Li Junru's HP was hit to 35%!
At this time, Liu Hong's blood volume was very low, only 40%, and she was still in a state of five layers of poisoning!
When the five layers of poisoning effects are over, her blood should be lost immediately.
But poisoning is a slow process after all, and she will definitely be poisoned to death after 7 seconds, so she must deal with her opponent within 7 seconds.
Li Junru also knew this, and immediately used the poison explosion skill "Arsenic-Frost Kills"!
Fangcaotang's "Arsenic-Frost Death" will detonate all the toxins on the target's body, making all poisoned states take effect immediately. If this move is hit, then all five layers of poisoning on Liu Hong will be detonated, and 45% of blood will be directly lost!
Liu Hong reacted very quickly, the moment Li Junru made the big move, she flew up immediately, and retreated a full 10 meters in a straight line with the teleportation and lightness kung fu of "Floating Light and Gleeful Shadow"!
Backing away from this position by 10 meters is just right to avoid Li Junru's big move, but what's worse is that she will fall into the giant pit trap.
After stepping into the trap, countless purple bamboo leaves fell down, almost burying Liu Hong. Moreover, falling into the trap also caused her to lose a lot of blood.
The audience was laughing at her, as if she thought it was funny that she chose a trap map and cheated herself.
But Ye Chao didn't laugh, instead he said: "If she didn't retreat just now, she would have fallen now. Compared with being directly killed by the explosion and falling into the trap, she chose the latter. It's just that she jumped out of the trap before going out." Attacking an opponent is a waste of time, will Li Junru give her such a chance?"
On the arena, Li Junru stepped forward and pressed her finger on the shortcut key of the poison attack skill "Crane Dinghong" in advance, intending to kill Liu Hong with a single move at the moment when she jumped up with Qinggong to avoid future troubles.
However, the angle of Liu Hongqinggong's take-off was very tricky. The woman in blue jumped up like a big roc spreading its wings, and jumped into the sky, like a giant blue bird. Under the shining light, this ingenious reflection of light actually just rightly affected Li Junru's vision.
People will close their eyes reflexively under the glare of light, perhaps only for a short 0.5 seconds, but Liu Hong seized this opportunity.
- Interlocking, snake bead sparrow ring!
Yinhuan's storm-like attack was used as a pre-skill, followed by the single-target attack thrown by the upper double ring, and the gold and silver double rings quickly approached Li Junru like snakes intertwined with each other, and hit her chest accurately!
With the sound of "bang", Li Junru fell directly to the ground.
—[Three Points of Water] killed [Loutai Gaosuo]!
This result caught many viewers by surprise, but everyone quickly found the reason: "When Liu Hongfei got up, the light refracted by the weapon flashed into Jun Ru's eyes. This should be a coincidence!" Flow is more beneficial!"
The audience subconsciously attributed Li Junru's loss in the first game to a "coincidence", but Ye Chao felt that Liu Hong's performance today made him admire.
The scene just now was probably not a coincidence, but the experience summed up through repeated training. If this is the case, then Liu Hong will become a very terrifying attacker in the Mo Jue team.
***
The second game started soon, and it was Li Junru's turn to choose a map, and she chose a relatively rare map "Deep in the Snow Field".
The biggest feature of this snow scene map is that, in addition to the many obstacles made of ice and snow, there is also the fact that the thick snow on the ground will slow down the movement speed of the players.
Liu Hong's Xuanbing Palace double circulation is a mid-range trap attack style, while Li Junru's Fangcaotang Poison Master's attack range is obviously farther than hers. Under this premise, it is very good to choose a deceleration map and fight a war of attrition at a distance. train of thought. Moreover, Liu Hong is best at playing fast and slowing down her pace, so Li Junru can find more opportunities.
At the start of the game, Li Junru spawned in the northeast corner of the snow field, while Liu Hong spawned in the southwest.
Liu Hong quickly came to the center of the map. Sure enough, he saw a poison master carrying a medicine basket standing on the roof of ice and snow from a distance. The moment she saw Liu Hong appearing, she immediately threw a blood-red Poison powder!
— Crane Crown Red, this is one of the poison master's basic poisons, which can superimpose the poisoned state in a combo.
Li Junru's hand speed was extremely fast, and he stacked the poisoned state to three layers in a blink of an eye, then turned around and flew down the roof lightly, hiding his figure.
She occupied the commanding heights at the beginning and poisoned the opponent first, plus the 2-second negative effect bonus of her weapon "Iris", this wave of poisoning lost blood, causing Liu Hong's blood to drop all the way to 80%.
Liu Hongguo chased after him with his lightness kung fu. The woman in blue flew across the roof and floated in front of the poisoner like the wind. The gold and silver rings in her hands shot at the same time, which was the most powerful close-range trap control technique in Xuanbing Palace. Hit - Shuanglong Xizhu, Shuanggui Lianfang!
The large-scale traps on the ground successfully pinned Li Junru, and Liu Hong immediately followed up with a "interlocking" violent combo!
Li Junru was not to be outdone, and used the basic poison attack of "Heartbroken Grass" to give Liu Hong two layers of poison status.
The poison on Liu Hong's body has stacked up to five layers. In order to avoid Li Junru's big move of poison explosion, Liu Hong had no choice but to retreat and hide in the house.
The two sides conducted the first wave of skill exchange, Li Junru had 60% of his health left, but Liu Hong only had 55% of his health left after the poisoning effect was resolved, a gap of 5%.
Liu Hong went into the house to hide from the poison explosion, but Li Junru did not go into the house to chase her, because there must have been a trap in the house.
Li Junru calmly flew up with the martial art of Qinggong, and once again crossed the roof and disappeared into Liu Hong's sight.
Ye Chao commented: "Although Li Junru's weapon only has a 2-second poisoning bonus, after several consecutive bonuses, the gap in blood volume will widen. If Liu Hong wants to win, he must burst out in a short period of time and kill his opponent , but the snow on this map is very thick, walking on the ground will be slowed down, and the lightness skill bar is consumed too quickly when flying in the air, Liu Hong will actually be very difficult to fight against long-range players on this map."
As Ye Chao explained, after Liu Hong came out of the house, he chased Li Junru with lightness kung fu, and his lightness kung fu points dropped rapidly.
However, the player Li Junru was so calm that she would pull away as soon as she had a slight advantage. The distance from each other has been precisely maintained.
Liu Hong's longest distance skill is 15 meters, and Li Junru's is 20 meters. As long as the distance between the two sides is stuck within the range of 15-20 meters, Liu Hong will be very uncomfortable.
In this round, Liu Hong seemed to be playing quite passively. He kept chasing behind Li Junru but couldn't catch up. The opponent consumed a lot of blood in vain.
After a while, Liu Hong only had 40% of his HP left, Li Junru still had 50%, and the gap in HP between the two had widened to 10%.
Li Junru was shocked, and quickly superimposed five layers of poisoning status on Liu Hong, and then activated the poison explosion skill "Arsenic-Frost kills"!
This time, the angle of her shot was quite tricky, Liu Hongbi couldn't avoid it, and when the big move hit, all the poisoning effects took effect immediately, directly exploding Liu Hong to 5% of his blood!
Three Dots of Water's health bar kept flashing red, but correspondingly, Li Junru's poison master skills were all in cold blood, and he could only rely on basic attacks to grind the opponent's blood.
With 5% blood skin, it only takes a few seconds to grind to death with basic attacks.
Li Junru stood calmly on the roof, planning to use normal attacks to hit Liu Hong. Just when the audience thought that Liu Hong was doomed, Liu Hong suddenly flew to Gao Close the distance in the air, followed by the Dalian move "Snake Orb Sparrow Ring" and "Lengyue Flower Soul"!
This set of lightning-fast combos actually reduced Li Junru's blood volume to 15% in one go!
Liu Hong had been very passive before, but the huge damage caused by the terrifying explosive power at this moment made people feel terrified!
Li Junru was obviously startled, seeing Liu Hongfei approaching, she immediately frantically pressed the basic attack, but Liu Hong flew behind her very cleverly, so she had to turn the camera.
She stood high on the roof and turned around to look back, but unexpectedly found that she couldn't see Liu Hong at all.
——Liu Hong cleverly blocked her vision by using the cover of the eaves!
The audience who discovered this immediately began to scan the barrage: "This angle calculation is really amazing!" "With such a card of vision, Li Junru has to jump down to fight!"
Liu Hong hid under the eaves so that Li Junru on the roof could not see her, so Li Junru turned around and jumped down.
She knew that Liu Hong must have set a trap on the ground, but Liu Hong only had 5% of his blood left, and her basic poison attack, Hedinghong, had just reached the cooldown, and she still had 15% of her own blood, as long as Liu Hong didn't lose her blood. In a wave of sudden death, she can directly kill the opponent with a single stroke of Hedinghong.
After analysis, Li Junru calmly jumped off the roof—as expected, Liu Hong was standing under the eaves and fixed her with a trap. Li Junru immediately used the poison attack skill "Crane Dinghong", but at this moment, Liu Hong suddenly teleported behind Li Junru with a "flying light" light skill, and while avoiding the skill, Li Junru couldn't see her. Location!
Li Junru was terrified, and immediately turned the camera, and then she found out in embarrassment that Liu Hong walked into the room, blocking her attack line again.
A normal attack on an opponent requires a straight-line attack. There is a house between the two of them, and she is immobilized, so she can't reach the opponent at all.
But the trap that Liu Hong set up on the ground began to explode at this moment—
As the traps exploded one after another, Li Junru's blood volume was also exploded to the point where there was only a trace of blood left.
The blood volume of the two, one is 3%, the other is 5%, and the blood bars are flashing red!
At the last critical moment, the audience held their breath nervously, for fear that they would miss this wonderful scene.
After the immobilization effect was over, Li Junru immediately adjusted his angle of view and hit Liu Hong with the cooldown of "Broken Heart Grass". This is an area group attack skill, and Liu Hong couldn't dodge it even if he was in the room. At the same time, the silver rings in Liu Hong's hand flew out one by one like a chain.
Heartbroken grass, interlocking!
The two skills were played almost at the same time, but it was Li Junru who fell first.
—[Three Points of Water] killed [Loutai Gaosuo]!
The prompt that popped up on the big screen proved that at the last moment, Yinhuan's skill judgment was faster than the poison master's poison attack!
Audiences:"… "
The audience fell into an eerie silence.
Unexpectedly, Liu Hong has been passively beaten in this round, but at the last moment, with 5% blood skin, he used the ingenious operation of the card position and the card vision to kill Li Junru!
Ye Chao was also stunned for a moment, and then explained: "Liu Hong didn't attack the opponent just now, so he wanted to let Li Junru relax his vigilance after widening the gap in blood volume, and then stuck the angle of view and killed her violently with a combo of moves."
Liang Ru smiled and said, "I never thought that Liu Hong would be able to fight psychologically."
The map of this game was not good for Liu Hong. Liu Hong seemed to be playing passively, being dragged by Li Junru to fly the kite all the time—but in fact, she was just waiting for an opportunity.
As soon as Li Junru opened the Dalian move, although she was beaten to a bloody skin, Li Junru's own skills also fell into a cooling down.
It takes time to grind blood with basic attacks. As long as she seizes this time to deal the highest damage, and then gets stuck and uses traps to trap opponents, she will have a chance of winning.
This style of play is extremely risky, but fortunately, Liu Hong's operation is fast enough. The lightning-like burst of combos actually crippled Li Junru's blood volume in one go, followed by the operation of using the card's vision to trap and kill the opponent.
The audience finally came to their senses, and the sparse applause rang out from the audience, which gradually became more and more enthusiastic. Many people even shouted Liu Hong's name!
Liu Hong, who had a 20% support rate before the game, unexpectedly killed Li Junru, the new captain of Guose, 2:0
This news immediately became the headlines of the major e-sports websites, and many people took the opportunity to analyze the reasons why Liu Hong left the Guose Tianxiang club.
Although Xu Lin in the VIP auditorium pretended to be calm, he clenched his fingers vigorously.
Ye Chao smiled and said: "Liu Hong's performance today really surprised us. Maybe we are all wrong. She is no worse than those players who have been playing damage from healing. And, the most important thing One thing is—she understands Li Junru's style of play, but Li Junru doesn't understand her."
Liang Ru also reacted, and said excitedly: "The so-called 'know yourself, know your enemy, and win a hundred battles', Liu Hong must know the players in the same club like the back of his hand, but Li Junru only knows how she plays healing, but doesn't know how she will fight after changing the output. First of all, in today's match, Liu Hong relied on his skills and understanding of his opponents to win two games in a row!"
Ye Chao didn't have a deep impression of this female contestant when she was a healer before. He only knew that she had the same style as her sister Liu Xiang, and her treatment level was slightly weaker than her sister's.
When people mention Liu Hong, the most popular sayings are "Liu Xiang's younger sister", "the same healing player as Liu Xiang", "very high level, but slightly worse than her sister Liu Xiang" - because of the existence of Liu Xiang, a world-class healer , as the "sister of the god milk", Liu Hongguang, who is also a healer, has been covered up a lot.
But today, she is standing on the big stage as a DPS player. Her aggressive style, decisive and crisp style of play, and her calm and delicate operation at critical moments have all opened the eyes of the audience!
— This is obviously a rare and sturdy output!
Many professional players who were watching the game in the background were surprised, and at the same time felt sorry for Liu Hong. If she had played DPS earlier, she might have been a super first-line player now, right
Seeing this scene, Qin Mo couldn't help giving Liu Hong a thumbs up in his heart.
— He really did not misread the player.
In the past, Liu Hong had been living under the cover of his sister's brilliance. He served as the vice team of Guose as a healer, and silently accompanied his sister. But after her sister retired, she decisively left the club that disgusted her, regained her freedom, and chose the path she wanted to go the most.
Once Liu Hong picked up the weapon in his hand, many male players would be afraid of her ferocity. Qin Mo had experienced her sharpness in the game at that time.
Now, she finally proved herself on the field.
She is not only "Liu Xiang's younger sister", she is Liu Hong, Liu Hong, the powerful output player of Team Mo Jue.
