The King's Avatar: Reincarnation Genius Tactics

Chapter 656 Taking the First City (Please Subscribe!!!)

The sight of two dragons gathering and circling in the sky has perhaps become the most visually striking moment of this year's Zurich World Invitational Tournament.

Future viewers may forget, but the three of them – Lars, Q.P, and Schneider – will probably never forget them.

Boom boom boom!
As the magical energy exploded, the three were blown away by the powerful shockwave.

On the ground, Polk and Lord Grim were already entangled, and Germany's sixth man, Bismarck, also arrived at the front.

He then launched an attack on Yi Yu Xing Chen, who was still recovering from his attack, with his spear in hand. However, with Mu Yu Cheng Feng and Shi Bu Zhuan protecting him, Bismarck's attack was interrupted before it even began.

Holy fire!

"Focus fire on Lars!" Ye Xiu commanded through his headset while battling Porke in a one-on-one fight.

After Shi turned around, invisible wings appeared, helping him fly into the air. Then, a cross was placed in front of him, and after chanting, a beam of holy light descended and struck the landing Lalsh.

The light of the holy commandments!

With Lalshu's position exposed, Yi Yu Xing Chen and Yi Ye Zhi Qiu, having regained their senses, immediately charged towards him.

Behind them, Mu Yu Cheng Feng used the high ground to provide fire support for the two, while Zhang Xinjie's Shi Bu Zhuan, after releasing the Holy Commandment Light and healing Jun Mo Xiao, landed and retreated.

After the sacred fire disappeared, Bismarck rushed over, only to find that Shi Buzhuan was nowhere to be seen.

What about people?

Bismarck didn't have time to think much. After reporting the news of the enemy priest's disappearance in the team's voice channel, he immediately drew his gun and charged at Mu Yu Cheng Feng.

The responsibility of protecting Lalsh now rests on Q·P's shoulders, but how could he possibly stop the two battle mages who have gone mad?

"Can Bismarck get back to defend?" Q.P. asked.

“I’ve already captured Mu Yu Cheng Feng!” Bismarck replied.

Q·P glanced in Bismarck's direction and, sure enough, he had successfully gotten close to Mu Yu Cheng Feng.

But he had a bad feeling; he felt that the other party was doing it on purpose, but he didn't have any concrete evidence.

At this moment, Larsius had already been successfully launched into the air by Ethereal Stardust Strike, and Q·P could only focus his attention on his own priest.

Soul-Striking Technique!
The dark light flew towards Yi Yu Xing Chen, but Yi Ye Zhi Qiu suddenly appeared and helped Yi Yu Xing Chen block the light.

"Damn!" Zhou Yichen exclaimed, thinking to himself that Sun Xiang was truly a good brother, and that he had misjudged him before.

"Damn it!" Sun Xiang exclaimed. He had originally planned to flank from the side and deliver a fatal shot to Larsius, a move commonly known as stealing kills, but he was accidentally hit by Q·P's Soul Strike.

Then Ralsh's head also came into the possession of Ethereal Stardust.

Yiyu Xingchen killed Ralsh.
Lalci, out!!!

"Good brother, for life!" Zhou Yichen said with a smile.

Sun Xiang pursed his lips and remained silent.

With Larsius falling, the scales of victory tipped completely in China's favor.

Although Bismarck had brought Mu Yu Chengfeng to low health, just as he was about to unleash his ultimate move to finish off his opponent, a grenade suddenly interrupted his combo.

"It's Life Destroyer. Xiao Shiqin, the sixth player for the Chinese team, has arrived at the front line. While all our attention was focused on Yi Yu Xingchen, we didn't expect that Shi Buzhuan, the priest of the Chinese team, would go to the substitution zone to replace Life Destroyer." Li Yibo felt somewhat incredulous.

The Chinese team's actions were too audacious.

However, the arrival of the Living Destroyer helped Mu Yu Cheng Feng escape Bismarck's entanglement. On the most chaotic frontal battlefield, Schneider was the first to give up, but before he died, he successfully launched the Feast of Ghosts and Gods.

One Autumn Leaf kills Schneider.

Schneider Electric, out!!!

Before dying, the Ghostly Feast he unleashed successfully slowed down Yi Yu Xing Chen and Yi Ye Zhi Qiu, and Q·P reacted quickly, immediately targeting Yi Ye Zhi Qiu, who had a healthier body.

The reason is simple: Q·P is very confident in dealing damage in the next wave. Even if the opponent is Zhou Yichen, he can still cooperate with Porke, who has already focused his attention on this side, to forcefully kill him.

But killing Yi Yu Xingchen was no longer enough to help the German team out of their predicament; they needed to look further ahead.

If we can kill One Autumn Leaf at the same time and eliminate the weakened Stardust, then there is still a glimmer of hope for victory.

Q·P and Polk knew very well that they were two points behind the Chinese team before the team competition even started.

Even if the situation were to become a one-for-one exchange, that would be something the Chinese team would be happy to see.

Therefore, if the German team wants to win the first leg, they must think further ahead. Simply defeating Yiyu Xingchen and leaving a relatively healthy Yiye Qiu will not quench their thirst.

Q.P and Polk, longtime partners, understand each other's intentions with just a glance.

Q·P raised his staff and chanted, but Autumn Leaf was suddenly swallowed by a magic circle that appeared beneath his feet and was forced to move.

Devouring technique!
Before Sun Xiang could react, Polk had already teleported right in front of him.

Cloud body!

While using his cloud-like body to dodge Lord Grim's attack, Polk also closed in on One Autumn Leaf, achieving two goals at once.

To Sun Xiang's astonishment, Polk unleashed his iron fist.

The ultimate move for level 75 martial arts masters – Inch Punch!
The moment he released his Cloud Body, Polk pressed down on his Inch Force, so when he arrived in front of One Autumn Leaf, Polk was already in the activated state.

Under normal circumstances, the inch punch requires the boxer to clench both fists tightly and then shake their body to activate it.

However, Porker perfectly utilized the cloud-like movement to cancel the pre-cast animation and complete the skill release.

Once the Inch Punch is activated, the distance from which the punch is delivered will be shortened, and the speed of punching will be increased. The next punch or normal attack will unleash an enhanced shockwave.

One Autumn Leaf failed to raise his gun to block in time, resulting in a punch carrying an enhanced energy wave landing on his chest.

The powerful force knocked Autumn Leaf to the ground, and Q·P immediately followed up with his attack, chanting in place and planting many spells.

Warlock's level 75 ultimate skill - Ghost Coil!
While consuming One Autumn Leaf, it also trapped Ethereal Stardust.

However, this did not pose much of a hindrance to Lord Grim. He simply shuddered, activated his steel bones, and entered the magic array.

Q·P thought Lord Grim had come to save Autumn Leaf, but instead saw him turn around and charge straight at him.

By the time he tried to create some distance, Yi Yu Xing Chen's gun was already embedded in his shoulder.

With powerful magical energy poured in, Yi Yu Xing Chen forcefully stabbed Q·P to the ground.

Round dance sticks!
It was only then that Q.P realized that the Chinese team had already made a choice the moment Polk threw a punch at One Autumn Leaf.

Trading Q·P's life for One Autumn Leaf's life is a sure-fire win for the Chinese team.

It wasn't just a one-for-one exchange; Q·P was also the German team's main commander.

Now that Berti, Larsius and Schneider have been eliminated, the Chinese team has reached 8 points.

Conversely, the German team only has 3 points. If they want to win this game, the remaining three players must achieve a team victory while minimizing the loss of more than two players.

This condition is too harsh, after all, three players have to eliminate six while not losing two. But the German team won't choose to surrender; that's not their style.

So at the same time that Polk took down One Autumn Leaf, Lord Grim and Stardust worked together to take down Q·P.

Porker kills One Autumn Leaf.
A single autumn leaf falling is outdated!!!

Yiyu Xingchen kills Q·P.

Q·P, out!!!

"Wow, your K-head skills are quite something!" Ye Xiu teased, confident of victory.

When they played against Australia, he hadn't realized how good Zhou Yichen was at head-knocking.

"Hey!"

Only Polk and Bismarck remained on the court, and Bismarck was currently being attacked by a mixed doubles team of Life Destroyer and Rain and Orange Breeze.

The two worked together very well, after all, they had briefly teamed up at Excellent Era.

Xiao Shiqin believes that Su Mucheng is much better now than she was at Excellent Era, both in terms of playing style and mentality.

After eliminating Q·P, the Chinese team played steadily, with Lord Grim and Stardust retreating to launch a surprise attack on Bismarck from another direction.

Polk tried to stop them, but with Shi Buzhuan arriving at the front, the German team had no hope of turning the tide.

In the end, Porker risked his life to trade kills with the low-health Mu Yu Cheng Feng, but he himself was also focused down and killed.

glory!!!

"Let's congratulate the Chinese team on winning this team match! 11-5, they defeated the German team by such a large margin!" the cup announced passionately.

"You know, this was the map chosen by the German team, but we played so beautifully!" Li Ju was also very excited.

It's worth noting that the players who made up this German team are all very famous in Europe, but today, facing the Chinese team, they didn't pose much of a problem for the Chinese team, whether in individual matches or team competitions.

On the other hand, Ye Xiu's Lord Grim caught the German team completely off guard.

Facing two battle mages head-on, the German team's two ghosts had absolutely no way to deal with them.

The score was 1-0.

China is currently in the lead.

This match was quite unexpected for many people, at least in the eyes of European audiences, who acknowledged that the Chinese team was indeed very strong.

The German team was undoubtedly ranked No.1 in this World Invitational Tournament, but now it seems that this No.1 team is struggling to cope with the Chinese team.

"This dual battle mage is unplayable without any restrictions," said Lee Sang-hyeok, the Korean "Grand Demon King," who was watching the match.

The German team lost the team competition in this match due to two factors. The first was Lord Grim. Although they had prepared before the match, the role of the unaffiliated hero still exceeded their expectations.

The second is the shadow combat technique of Yi Yu Xing Chen and Yi Ye Zhi Qiu, which completely covered the front line.

The German team simply couldn't get past the two players to attack Shi Buzhuan and Mu Yuchengfeng in the back.

"Especially the point about Yi Yu Xing Chen, it's too strong!" Pei Xingxiong said next to Li Xianghe.

"Yes, we've made it to the finals. We need to be careful about this. Minxi, take a look."

"Okay Captain!"

Domestic viewers felt much more at ease seeing that the first match of the semifinals was won by such a large margin.

At least for my first time participating in the World Invitational Tournament, I've already practically got one foot in the finals.

"Perfect performance!" Ye Xiu stood up and said to his teammates after the match.

"So-so," Zhou Yichen waved his hand and said.

Back at the hotel, the Chinese team celebrated properly.

After the meal, some people went to smoke near the restroom, while others watched replays of the game on their phones.

Some people are showing off their love, while others are eating it.

And some people have already disappeared to who knows where.

"Old Ye, do you think we can win the championship this time?" Li Xuan asked, smoking a cigarette. Now, Li Xuan was calling him "Old Ye" just like Huang Shaotian.

Take a deep breath in, then exhale; it feels incredibly refreshing.

Li Xuan was actually very happy to be selected for the World Invitational Tournament.

He hopes to learn some of the Ghost Knight playstyles from foreign teams at this World Invitational Tournament and then bring them back to Void.

"Sure, can I borrow your lighter?" Ye Xiu patted his pockets and then held out his left hand to Li Xuan.

While Li Xuan was still thinking, he subconsciously handed the lighter to Ye Xiu.

After lighting the lighter, Ye Xiu skillfully slipped it into his pocket.

"What does it feel like to be a champion?" Li Xuan looked up at a 45-degree angle, into the void. He had never experienced what it felt like to be a champion, let alone reach the finals.

Since the first season, Void Team has been a regular in the playoffs, but their ceiling seems to have been stuck there.

Li Xuan debuted in the fourth season and made it to the playoffs multiple times, but he never made it past the first round.

Of the three previous playoff underperformers—Yan Yu, Lei Ting, and Xu Kong—the first two have already surpassed their team records, leaving only Xu Kong.

While the team performed well in the regular season, once they entered the playoffs, apart from Li Xuan and Wu Yuce who performed consistently, the other players were in a completely different state compared to the regular season.

Glory is not a game for one person, and even if Li Xuan wanted to, he was powerless to fight five opponents at once.

Therefore, many people believe that Void should change its lineup, but how should the lineup be changed while keeping the two Ghosts?

This is the question Li Xuan is currently pondering: what kind of future is the void?
Seeing Li Xuan's melancholy expression, Ye Xiu understood what he was thinking. He then finished his cigarette and walked over to Li Xuan.

"A world champion is still a champion!" Ye Xiu patted Li Xuan on the shoulder with a smile. "You'll understand what it feels like when the time comes."

"I hope so," Li Xuan sighed.

Ye Xiu didn't say anything and turned to leave the restroom. Li Xuan stubbed out his cigarette, and just as he was about to leave the restroom, he suddenly seemed to remember something and patted himself all over.

"Damn it, where's my lighter!" Li Xuan panicked immediately. What's the most precious thing for a smoker?
Is it a cigarette?

Do not!
It's a lighter!

He'd probably never been this panicked in his life. Who took his lighter?

"Where's my lighter?!"
