Quadruple split.

Chapter 2281: Preparations for War

"call--"

In the temporary meeting room of the haunted church, Mo Tan, who was staring at the screen intently even in the boring middle and late stages of the game and did not want to miss any frame, finally breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes, leaned back, and let himself sink into the super luxurious and soft sofa that cost at least 100 or yuan outside of the game. He looked as peaceful as a social animal who had been working all night for more than hours and finally died suddenly as he wished.

"Thank you for your hard work. Thank you for your hard work."

Yu Chen immediately raised his hand and touched Mo Tan's head, saying softly, "It's really not easy."

Yi Dong, who had been distracted since the tenth minute after the game entered the "hide and seek" stage, spent the next two hours watching the racing video in a small window and laughed dryly: "Why don't I think it's hard to watch hide and seek for two hours?"

"agree."

Yuying leaned against Gu Xiaole and watched an idol drama while complaining weakly, "It was quite interesting at the beginning, but it was really boring later. I definitely won't say unreasonable nonsense like [Windbreaker] is a rogue, but to say how hard it looks... Tsk tsk, maybe this is the difference between the commander and me and other mortals."

Gu Xiaole, who was leaning against Yuying and holding Ji Xiaoge in his arms, blinked and turned to look at Mo Tan, who was lying on the sofa without saying a word. Then he cast his gaze to Yu Chen, who was patting the latter's head: "So how did Tan Jiang make himself so tired?"

"I don't know either, but I can tell he's been thinking about something."

Yu Chen replied very honestly, and then continued to pat Mo Tan's dishonest hair, and said seriously with a stern smile: "Anyway, it feels very hard!"

Ji Xiaoge pursed her lips and suddenly muttered, "Damn it, I want to touch someone's head too!"

Gu Xiaole chuckled and said happily: "I don't think Chenchen will give it to you!"

"I don't want her head either!"

The winged girl flapped her wings, then began to daydream, humming and saying, "I also have a brain that I can play with."

Yi Dong: "..."

Obviously, although a certain clever young master wanted to curse at something right now, due to the extreme consequences that might result from complicating the situation, he could only painfully suppress his urge to complain, hold back his curse words in his heart, and wait until he was alone with that bastard to curse him to his heart's content.

"Let's stop talking about this for now."

At this moment, Mo Tan, who had cleared his mind for a moment, slowly opened his eyes, then straightened up and turned to look at Yu Chen, who still had his hand on his head with an innocent look on his face, and asked with a subtle expression: "...Do you want to touch me?"

Yu Chen blinked, nodded very honestly and replied: "Yeah, it feels good to touch."

"Don't touch it even if it's nice."

Mo Tan helplessly grabbed Yu Chen's wrist and 'plucked' the latter's little claws off his head, then looked around at his teammates and pigeons as seriously as possible, and said solemnly: "It's our turn in the next game. Have you remembered what I told you before?"

Ji Xiaoge: “What?”

Yi Dong, Gu Xiaole, Yu Chen and Yu Ying all nodded in unison, which was very encouraging.

"That's good."

Mo Tan smiled, then suddenly turned to look at Yu Chen: "In the next game, use more dark magic."

Yu Chen: “…Huh?”

"Also, I remember you should have a priest robe in your bag, right?"

Mo Tan asked in a rather confident tone, and then added: "It's the black priest robe that I usually wear."

“I have it!”

Yu Chen nodded immediately, blinking her eyes, and asked curiously: "Do you want me to give it to you after the game starts? Can I give it to you?"

"Although it's only limited to the game, and if it's not returned after the game it will be destroyed, but you can give it to me."

Mo Tan, who was familiar with the specific rules of [Guilt Battle], first carefully explained it, and then smiled slyly: "But you don't have to give it to me, just put it on yourself. I remember that you can change equipment during the preparation stage."

"oh oh!"

Yu Chen nodded obediently and did not continue to ask questions. He just meekly said that he would definitely do it.

What needs to be mentioned separately here is that although the Saint's Clothing and the Nun's Clothing that Yu Chen usually wears have gender restrictions and can only provide pure visual effects for male players in most cases without any attribute bonus, the priest's clothing, priest's robes, pope's clothing and standard paladin armor have no gender restrictions. Except for the standard paladin armor that some female paladins cannot wear normally because of their too proud bust, all of them are equipment that can provide complete attribute bonuses regardless of gender.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the wearer must meet the basic requirements. After all, with Mo Tan's current strength, even if the current Dawn Pope Saint Ambrose is willing to give him the clothes to wear, he will not be able to activate any equipment effects because his wisdom attributes, Dawn School, and the upper limit of faith power are completely unsatisfactory. It is useless except for looking intimidating.

However, there is absolutely no problem for Yu Chen to wear Mo Tan's equipment, even though the latter's ordinary priest robe is only of excellent quality, and the attribute bonus and defense are pitifully small, far inferior to the epic equipment [High-level Nun Robe·Bai Qi] that Yu Chen often wears, but it definitely has everything it should have, even though those bonuses are not much different from having no bonuses for Yu Chen's existing basic attributes.

In fact, apart from Mo Tan, no one would think so much. It's not that everyone has no ability to think and only knows how to rely on Mo Tan, but in the [Haunted Church] team, everyone has his own position, and at this moment Mo Tan is just fulfilling his duties.

In his own words, since he couldn't make any contribution in terms of 'strength', he should use his brain more and try not to hinder everyone too much.

The result of his core idea of ​​"not holding everyone back" is that the [Haunted Church] has unknowingly become the team with the least exposed information and the most mysteries in the [Guilt Battle·Group Battle].

Although they are not very conspicuous and are not as well-known as teams like [Red Constellation], [Wind-Breaking Bird], and [Card Master], many astute people have realized that this seems to be the only team besides [Red Constellation] that has reached the quarterfinals with less than three members!

……

"Tsk tsk, [Haunted Church]..."

In the meeting room of Heavy Metal, Zhu Lan took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth: "To be honest, although their strength on paper does not seem to be as good as that of Card Man and Wind Breaker, I would rather fight with those two teams."

Musalo, who was an orc and a front-line fighter and drummer in the Heavy Metal team, stroked his stubble and asked curiously, "What about Sailor Moon?"

"We also know those Sailor Moon characters."

Zhu Lan rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Huo Yanyang has taken a fancy to that Berserker sister. If we fight them, this kid might even turn against us."

Huo Yanyang, who was sitting next to him, was immediately furious and shouted angrily: "Bullshit! If I really turn against you, Yu Na will definitely look down on me for the rest of my life."

"What Yuna? Are you talking about Kasena from Sailor Moon?" McCay, who is a lizardman and a bassist in the Heavy Metal team, is also a shaman like Huo Yanyang but focuses more on elemental attacks. He smacked his lips and said meaningfully, "Dude, you even found out her real name."

Huo Yanyang's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, it's none of your business. Sailor Moon is in the upper half, and we have to make it to the finals to have a chance to meet them."

“I am pessimistic about this.”

Signisius, a guitarist and healer who was a flower elf and had an extremely handsome appearance, sighed and said with a melancholy look on his face, "I don't think we can touch either the Haunted Church or the Wind-Breaking Bird."

"really."

Musalo also nodded and said seriously: "To be honest, the reason why we can make it to the quarterfinals is mainly because of you, Zhulan and Huoyanyang. The tough battles ahead... are really hard to fight."

"Stop talking sour words."

Although he didn't have the qualities of a leader, Zhu Lan, who had built up considerable confidence in the individual competition, shook his head and said seriously, "It's true that it's difficult to play, but there's no need to dampen your spirits. Putting aside the [Wind-Breaking Bird], I know the [Haunted Church] we're going to play in a while. Apart from Sister Xiao Le who is really good, none of the other four are too abnormal."

Signisius rubbed his hands nervously, and while paying attention to the system time, he said to Zhu Lan for the umpteenth time: "Then introduce them to you in detail."

"I've said it a thousand times..."

Zhu Lan sighed, and then patiently explained for who knows how many times: "First, there is Captain Heifan. Haven't you all read the "Misha Diary" on the forum? In short, his personal strength is ridiculously weak. Huo Yanyang can whip him to death, but his command and dispatch ability is ridiculously strong. The more units he can control, the scarier he is. In addition, he has a deep understanding of all aspects of this game. It is very likely that he can analyze the background and general trend of the times through geological or cultural environment. This is the shortcoming of [Haunted Church]."

McCay pulled the corner of his mouth with a forced smile and said dryly, "You call this a shortcoming?"

"That's right, because Hei Fan is the type of person whose performance ceiling increases as the size of the team grows."

Zhu Lan nodded vigorously and said in a deep voice: "Luckily, Huo Yanyang on our side is also of this type. Even if outsiders don't know, you should understand that his auxiliary ability is undoubtedly legion-level. The previous competitions were far from his true limit!"

McCay, Musalo and Signisius exchanged glances, and finally nodded at the same time, agreeing with Zhu Lan's statement.

After all, as teammates, no one knows Huo Yanyang's strength, potential and upper limit better than them. It is no exaggeration to say that his supporting ability that drove countless professionals crazy before was just the tip of the iceberg and a stopgap measure. In essence, as Zhou Lan said, it is a legion-level support with an insanely high upper limit, the kind that the more people there are, the stronger it is.

"What if there are a lot of NPC teammates on the other side, and there are only five of us?"

The legion-level auxiliary with an insanely high upper limit asked curiously.

"Then I will kill you, the crow's mouth, before they kill me."

Zhu Lan glanced at him in annoyance, and after Huo Yanyang shut up, he continued to analyze, "Then there's Yu Ying. I've had some brief contact with that girl. She's a pretty good assassin, but only pretty good. Her level is slightly lower than ours."

"But she seems to have done a good job with her fatal attack."

Signisius, the healer, touched his chin and said hesitantly, "Did she take the Greek milk away in the last round? I'm afraid my small body can't withstand her poke."

Zhu Lan nodded slightly and said seriously, "So you'd better not leave my side after the game. The threat of the life-threatening attack is very strong, but the activation conditions of this skill are too harsh. Not only does it take a long time to prepare, but if you fail to hit it, you will basically die. With my vigilance, Yuying probably won't dare to play like this, unless she wants to give us a kill for nothing."

"Okay, keep talking."

Signisius breathed a sigh of relief and agreed with Zhu Lan's logic. After all, the latter's unreasonable "Future Vision" could indeed be regarded as the natural enemy of assassin players. As long as he didn't stay too far away from him, at least he wouldn't have to worry about being taken away directly by a skill like a fatal blow.

"Winter, although he looks like an ice mage, he is actually a necromancer. He has strong coordination, support, and range attack capabilities. His weaknesses are mobility and weak resistance to 'lawful' magic."

Zhu Lan stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "His individual strength is not that strong, but I personally think that the characteristics of the Necromancer profession can easily be used by the [Haunted Church]. Don't forget that we just said that Hei Fan, like Huo Yan Yang, needs a large number of friendly units to ensure the upper limit. So even though there is no evidence, I think we should be wary of this direction. So I bought a lot of high-level divine scrolls with no threshold in advance, and we will share them later. If we see anything unclean, we will just kill it!"

Musalo's eyes widened immediately, and he asked in surprise, "High-level divine scrolls? So many? Are you that rich?"

"I made a lot of money in my individual tournaments. Although I spent most of it because of the premium wholesale, we can all make a lot of money after today's tournament. I should spend this money. If I can play one more round, I can make more money later."

Zhu Lan waved his hand nonchalantly, then his face became serious and he said seriously: "Finally, it's Chen Wangyu and the great Yin-Yang Master Gu Xiaole. These two are the most difficult ones in the Haunted Church team!"

"We have all seen that great Yin-Yang Master. As for Chen Wangyu, you two said she was the Saint of Dawn, so she is very good at adding blood, right?"

"Extremely powerful? Let me put this out there right now. Speaking only from the players' perspective, Chen Wangyu's healing skills are unquestionably the best, but..."

"but what?"

"But this is just data. Her actual combat experience should be relatively poor. Not only did she have little gaming experience before, but she was also well protected by the church most of the time in the [Realm of Innocence]. Therefore, disrupting her healing rhythm is the key!"

"learn."

"Also..."

"Just what?"

"As I mentioned before, she is not only a healer, but also a DPS player."

"We know. You said that before."

"I did, but..."

"But what but? Let's be frank. We know she is your friend and we will definitely not publicize her privacy."

"Well, you know she is a favored one from God, right?"

"I know. She is the favored one of the Goddess of Dawn."

"Yes, but besides that, she is also the favored one of the Dark Goddess."

"???"
