Chapter 2245 It’s not the same after all, young man’s journey

  Game time PM13:29

Public Space, Tokiwa Meeting Room

"Haha, they ran away. I knew the two elder sisters would have to retreat!"

A'Du, who is well-known as the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings of Evergreen, clapped his thigh happily, looked up at the big screen, and said with great joy: "Those kids are also unlucky. They have no practical experience to compare with the opponents, and their equipment is a big level behind. As a result, they have an advantage of three more heads, but they can only barely guarantee that they will not be defeated. They can't even keep their people alive."

"Still too young."

The gray-haired man in a loose white robe, who was tall but looked very intellectual, and who was also one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Tokiwa, smacked his lips and sighed, "Why can't they see that the two elder sisters ran away not because they wanted to let them go, but because Da Zhuang's mother had run out of mana."

The short blue-haired elf standing next to the giant tree with his arms folded, King Agatha shook his head the next day: "Because they didn't see Da Zhuang's mother drinking the mana potion. Think about it carefully. According to the logic of diminishing returns, even if it is a mid-level mana potion available on the market now, the first two bottles can at least restore 30% to 40% of the mana value for regular high-level professionals. In other words, in the eyes of those children, that senior can at least restore at least half of the mana."

"what?"

Jumu was slightly stunned, and said in astonishment: "That's not right. Didn't Dazhuang's mother drink three bottles of mana potion? When Nuannuan's mother started fighting, her health dropped like a floodgate. The blood loss in a quarter of an hour has exceeded three times her original health value. Even if the healer takes care of her one-on-one, there is no way she can keep up without taking drugs to death."

Agatha rolled her eyes and didn't explain. She just cursed expressionlessly, "Idiot."

"no……"

Ju Mu opened his eyes wide with an innocent look and said in surprise, "Why? Da Zhuang's mother drank the medicine! She drank three bottles! I saw it clearly!"

"cough."

Lorelai, the cool and beautiful lady who ranked fourth among the Four Heavenly Kings of Evergreen and always wore an OL outfit, coughed lightly and reminded him, "Brother Jumu, is there a possibility that although you saw Dazhuang's mother drink the mana potion, the children didn't see it?"

Upon hearing this, the giant tree froze in place as if struck by lightning: "Ah, this..."

"Hey."

Although he is not one of the Four Heavenly Kings, Shinmen Musashi no Kami Fujiwara no Genshin is also eligible to enter the meeting room because he is the sixth substitute in the [Tokiwa Team], and he lowered his voice to the little Thorn Wolf who ranked fifth among the Four Heavenly Kings next to him and asked: "Can you understand?"

"Yes, I am not a female gorilla like you who only fights on instinct."

The little thorn wolf grinned, and immediately explained quickly before Musashi grabbed his neck: "In short, the reason why Big Brother Jumu saw that Dazhuang's mother drank the mana potion three times is mainly because we, the audience, have a god's perspective. But even if we don't have a god's perspective, we can still ensure that there are no blind spots in our vision by moving around. In this way, if the other party drinks the potion, at least one or two people on our side will observe this detail and synchronize it to the whole team at the first time."

Musashi blinked and asked, "So if we fight those two, we won't be fooled?"

"Uh……"

The little thorn wolf pulled the corner of his mouth, and after a long while he shook his head and said, "Brother, you think too much. If we fight these two, they won't have a chance to drink the medicine."

Musashi was stunned and asked curiously, "No way, judging from what the old man said, the five members of the parent team are all masters. How could they not even have a chance to drink medicine when fighting with us?"

"if not?"

A'du, who had strolled behind the two of them at some point, grinned and held their shoulders at the same time: "Little Musashi, you have to know that although these uncles and aunts are indeed masters among masters, they are people of the last era after all, and generally have not chosen to become professional players. We are real active professional players. We need to do at least two hours of reaction training and tactical coordination every day. How can we fight five against two? Even if we only let Ju Mu and Agatha go, those two aunts can't last more than three minutes."

Musashi was stunned again, and continued to ask: "But those children are not weak, why are they suppressed so badly?"

“Because of experience…”

A'Du looked at Musashi with a look of disappointment, and said helplessly: "Those kids play well, and their potential is also visible to the naked eye, but their gaming experience is simply terrible. Even the strongest one, Huohong, always focuses on breaking moves and killing. It may be okay in a one-on-one fight, but as long as the opponent has more than two people, he can't play well."

The giant tree that came over laughed and said happily: "Actually, you are quite good at it, but you can only do ineffective output and consume yourself."

"The experience gap..."

Musashi looked at the equally melancholy children on the screen with a bit of melancholy, and sighed like an artistic girl: "I feel more and more like I am nothing."

The little thorn wolf responded with a reflexive ridicule: "If you are ugly, you should read more books."

bang——

"Oh, oh, brother Adu, let me ask you something."

While stepping on the little Thorn Wolf that he had knocked to the ground, Musashi asked A'du curiously, "Since you said before that the difference between the two sides lies in experience, then why are there still many non-professional players who can achieve good rankings?"

A'Du smiled and asked, "When did I say that 'experience' is something that only belongs to professional players? Don't forget, except for Da Zhuang's mother who seems to have been in the industry for a short period of time, those uncles and aunts are not gamers either, but the fighting style they show is still very experienced."

"Compared to those kids, we have more experience. Compared to the uncles and aunts, our biggest advantage is actually our powerful characters. After all, they only have good equipment, but our characters have been specifically upgraded. Take this idiot for example, he is also a berserker, and his style is obviously not as crazy as Nuannuan's mother, but his impact is much stronger than theirs."

Agatha shrugged and said quietly, "But I always feel that although those parents play seriously, they don't really think about winning."

"Why?"

The little thorn wolf, who was being stepped on and stomped on by Musashi, raised his head with difficulty and struggled to ask this question.

"Because of the division of forces."

The giant tree squatting next to the little thorn wolf chuckled and raised an eyebrow, saying, "If you think about it carefully, you will know. If those parents really want to win, they can basically win the game by just rushing together. Don't talk about dreams like splitting up to find a place more efficient. The children may think so, but you have to know that they ran into an old thief head-on before that. It is simply a fantasy to expect them not to be caught."

A'Du beside him nodded slightly and added, "Looking back, you will know that no matter whether it is the combination of Xiaotian's father and Nannan's father, or the combination of Nuannuan's mother and Dazhuang's mother, they were able to beat up those children and then retreat safely. Although they did not show mercy, they retreated only because they would suffer a great loss if they continued to fight, but what if the four of them stick together?"

"The first wave will at least reduce the number of children by one, and maybe even provide treatment."

Agatha sneered and said calmly, "If the quality of those children is good, and Fire Red is even better than the average level of their parents in a one-on-one duel, then in a 4v4 team battle, even if there are four Fire Reds for the children, there is no way they can beat the parents who have maxed out their experience."

Lorelai stroked her chin and continued, "But the fact is, although the quality of the parents is obviously much higher than that of the children, they did not choose a sure-win strategy. Instead, they split themselves up and ended up in a situation where they couldn't defeat the other five even if they tried their best. I would say... they probably don't have any desire to win."

"And they don't want to be looked down upon by the kids."

Agatha looked at the boys and girls on the screen with a kind look and smiled, "According to what those children said, it's clear that they didn't know the true level of their elders before this game. Tsk, a classic case of playing dumb and then eating the tiger. In the end, it should be the performance of the foodie dad. Then he will lose naturally, and the other two groups will be defeated one by one by the children with their numerical advantage. It's a perfect loss in battle but not in person."

Adu, who had the same idea as Agatha, nodded: "Very insightful."

Then--

"wrong."

Sitting in the middle of the long table, Sakaki, who hadn't said a word since the game started, took a deep breath and shook his head slightly.

"Those kids, they can't win."

……

  Game time PM13:36

The training ground is codenamed 'Scale', with an open area in the central area.

"So, this should be what you think?"

Nannan, who was not only a healer but also a staff officer, stood at the front of the team. She faced the foodie father in front of her, who had his hands in his pockets. Although he looked quite handsome, his temples were already a little gray, his hair was a little sparse, and his eyes were full of stories and vicissitudes. He said seriously, "We have discussed this on the way. Although I personally don't mind, they mean that they don't want to take advantage of you. So instead of cooperating with you to play a game of defeating one by one, it's better to have a good fight. It's better to lose happily than to win shamelessly."

"It's a happy loss... but a shameful win..." The foodie father softly repeated his daughter's words, his eyes swept over the five children in front of him one by one, and then shook his head under the serious gaze of the boys and girls: "You only guessed half right."

Huohong frowned, took a step forward and stood at the front of the team, holding the [Fierce Slash] and [Thunder Slash] of the six long swords at his side with both hands, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that I want you to see the true strength of the adults. That's right."

The foodie dad slowly pulled his hands out of his pockets, the tenderness in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a kind of... numbness, as if everything was burning.

That's right, it's numbness, which is what children occasionally see in Huohong. The numbness and the unexpressable fighting spirit in Huohong are far stronger than those of most of their peers.

"And you are wrong to ask you to start from me and refute our guesses one by one."

The foodie dad slowly tightened his right hand, and said in a calm and indifferent and arrogant tone: "This is your final destination."

"Be careful!!!"

The fiery red pupils suddenly shrank the moment her father finished speaking, and she immediately used the handle of [Reizhan] to smash towards Nannan who was within a few feet of her, and even used the skill [Iai] in the process, preferring to hurt someone accidentally in order to help her companion escape from danger as quickly as possible, but——

[Inherent barrier: the insurmountable silver mountain]

As a chill as if falling into an ice cellar passed through the body, Huohong's movements inevitably slowed down for a beat, and then... he watched helplessly as Nannan was hit by a navy blue giant beast that fell from the sky, and in an instant it turned into white light and dissipated on the spot.

[Your teammate: Nannan, has died]

"Spread out!"

There was not even a moment to be shocked by the healer's elimination. Huohong realized that he was standing on the top of the mountain. Without any hesitation, he dodged the giant beast's attack and rushed towards the three teammates behind him.

"Turn around."

However, the next moment, his father's cold voice suddenly rang in Huohong's ears: "Now is the time for a duel."

The next moment, three flying bird shadows, one golden, one red, and one blue, flashed by like lightning.

Under Huohong's horrified gaze, Zhaohao was engulfed by a deep and fierce flame, Tianjibian was 'blown away' by a sharp ice storm, and Nuanyu Chuqing was blasted into white light by a golden thunder that fell from the sky after she was thrown a 'Blessing of Justice' that could gain a buff in a duel.

[Your teammate: Zhao Hao, has died]

[Your teammate: Tianji Bian, has died]

[Your teammate: Nuanyu Qingfeng, has died]

"Damn it!"

As the system prompt sounded in his ears, which was as cold as his father's words just now, Huo Hong, who almost gritted his teeth, turned around and looked at the relative who was standing with his hands behind his back in the howling wind. He was standing on the same plane and was even a few centimeters shorter than him, but he seemed to be looking down on him. He drew his sword with hatred -

【Tranquil Slash·Swallow Returns】

[Fierce Slash: Burning Heaven and Earth]

【Thunder Slash·Lightning Strike】

[Ice Slash: Snow Covers Three Thousand Temples]

Four long swords were unsheathed at the same time, and the fiery red man held the end of the hilt with his index, middle, little and ring fingers of both hands. With the blessing of skills, his body was as fast as lightning. In a flash, he shattered the three flying bird phantoms in mid-air and sealed the already sluggish giant beast phantom in the hilt.

Then--

"Don't underestimate people!"

Huohong approached his father and squeezed out these words from between his teeth, then pulled out the last two long swords.

【Death Slash: Dark Night Shadow】

[Evil Slash: Abyss Thrust]

At the same time, the man in front of him slowly raised his right hand and his eyes became serious.

[Beyond the Boundary - The End of the Dream]

The training ground is codenamed 'Scale', the central open area, [Inherent barrier - Insurmountable Silver Mountain], the top of the mountain

"really……"

The man covered his lower abdomen with his right hand, where the bloody wound almost cut him in half. He lowered his eyes to look at the arm on the ground that was originally on his shoulder. He shook his head helplessly and sighed, "It turns out that people still have to accept that they are old."

"Neuropathy."

Huohong, whose chest was pierced, shook his head, cursed angrily, and then fell to the ground with his back facing the sky.

"What do you know."

The father chuckled and said leisurely, "If it were more than 20 years ago, you wouldn't even be on the top of the mountain."

"Where would that be?"

Huohong, whose health was rapidly decreasing, chatted with his father in a rare calm manner.

"At the bottom of the mountain, he was crushed to death."

"That's awesome."

"Haha, yeah."

……

Reeds cover the sandbanks, cold sands carry shallow currents. I have been to the South Tower again after 20 years. The boat is tied to the willows but still not stable. How many days will it take? It will be Mid-Autumn Festival again.

At the Yellow Crane's Broken Rock, is my old friend still here? The old mountains and rivers are all filled with new sorrows. I want to buy some osmanthus flowers to carry with me, but it doesn't feel like the days of my youth.
