In other words, the appearance of confrontation between Berghead and Flor can no longer be maintained, and one side must make a choice.
A bold idea suddenly and uncontrollably popped into my mind.
"Hill, contact Claire to coordinate with the event effect I set up. Instruct Sherlock to lead the army to retreat and temporarily hand over Berghead to Grantham. Let Irina lead the Blood Owl Legion to the lower half of the war zone to facilitate the coordination of subsequent operations."
There was a gleam in my eyes.
"We may have a situation where we can just take over the other's home."
Chapter 137 Top 100
Day seven of the round-robin tournament, MT071 map.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the open plain like the rays of light spread by the gods, coating the starry green sea with a layer of warm and dull color.
The level 117 shield warrior sighed and fell dejectedly on the ground covered with grass and mud.
His shield was already damaged, and his health was completely depleted by a death-like shadow that had pierced through him half a second ago, while the enemy was still standing dozens of yards away, safe and sound.
As long as he could defeat his opponent in the last points match, there was a great chance that he would be in the top 100. However, he did not expect that the system randomly selected a plain map, and the opponent he faced was the president Alice, who was dubbed the national sister, a loli player named Yitong.
When I watched the battle video earlier, it seemed that the young and cute appearance was so deceptive that I didn’t think it was a big deal. But when I really competed with the opponent, I found that the defensive ability that I was proud of was so fragile under the opponent’s powerful spells.
Even though he was the main shield warrior of the Empire's Epic Elite Group and had two legendary equipment on him, he had tried his best, but the opponent's equipment and awareness were among the top players, even surpassing the level of professional players. As a result, all his efforts were wasted.
It was said that the opponent had another profession as a thief, but it seemed that he couldn't even use his killer move as a dark magic.
He could only sigh like this as the view in front of him fell into endless darkness.
More than fifty yards away, I watched my opponent in the last points race fall in the dim sunset and breathed a sigh of relief.
Today's three matches were not as intense as the previous few days. The opponents in the first two matches were hopeless, and I was at the top of the points ranking, so I easily defeated them without much fighting spirit. The opponent in this last match was very strong in strength and equipment, and there was still a glimmer of hope, so I almost tried my best.
However, the opponent's luck was really bad. The system randomly simulated a plain map. Even if there were trees, the scattered trees could not provide much cover. In such a terrain, it was natural for a mage to win the game against a shield warrior.
After this game, I have obtained 60 points for victory in seven days. Adding the battle performance points, my ranking has reached fifth place, and there is no doubt that I have entered the direct promotion quota.
Apart from herself, Yuwen, Cecilia, Sister Qiuru, Sister Luoqing, Gray Liunian, Sister Yeyuan and Meicengchanmian also successfully entered the top 50 ranking. After a day of fierce competition, Sister Maple Leaf, Shiguangqian, Sugared Coffee, Makino, Cup of Wine, Mengyi, Wencun and Posa expanded Alice's list of top 100.
Sixteen people accounted for nearly one-sixth of the top 100, which was enough to prove Alice's strength. And even those who didn't make it to the top 100 also got very high rankings in the final ranking of the round-robin tournament. It can only be said that they were unlucky.
Yun Xian and Yun Qian ranked 861st and 325th respectively.
I expected them not to make it to the top 100. No matter how good their skills are, they are still a little behind the top players. This result is already quite good for them. Yun Qian aside, Yun Xian's profession alone is a big disadvantage. For example, only four priests made it into the top 100 this time, and only Shi Guangqian made it into Alice with difficulty.
Even if Gray Floating Light had the special inheritance of the Church of Light, it would be of no avail. In this kind of one-on-one battle, for a priest, only pure technology was the key to influencing the outcome of the battle.
However, the two sisters were also aware of their own strengths, so they were not too upset and instead became "cheerleaders" for us. Moreover, Xiao Qian also helped them a lot.
In the previous match with me, because Alola revealed too many cards, he finally finished 112th. But after being induced by my words and with Xiao Qian's consolation and Cecilia's assistance, he has expressed his intention to join the guild. I'm afraid that after the match, we will see another member of Alice's loli team.
Inside the Black Forest Tavern, everyone was waiting for the final result of the draw.
After two days of competition, the ranking of the top 1,000 has been determined, and what will follow is the more intense elimination round for the top 100.
According to the rules of the competition, the remaining 100 finalists will be randomly paired with three different opponents. If they win two of the three games, they will advance. If there is a tie, both sides will be deemed the losers.
The players who advance will participate in the most brutal and fierce single elimination match to determine the final top ten and even the champion, runner-up and third place. All the top 100 players have won the title of Sky Continent Pioneer. They will soon represent their respective empires to participate in the World Contest in early October and compete with players from other empires for national honor.
And now, they have to fight and strive for their final honor. Regardless of whether they win or lose, their names have been engraved on the monuments of great achievements in the capitals of major empires.
"An An, do you think we will face off?"
Yiwen suddenly asked while staring at the screen, looking eager to try.
"If we're facing each other, we'll sit face to face and randomly place four cards on the ground. Whoever gets 24 points first wins."
"Then An An is definitely no match for him."
Ivan, who was quite talented in mathematics, turned up his nose.
"I'm saying there's no such possibility."
I rolled my eyes.
For example, during the round-robin tournament, the Epoch officials basically did not arrange for the same guilds to clash with each other. This should be the same for the top 100 tournament. They will only meet each other in the subsequent single-elimination tournaments, otherwise it would be unfair.
Just as I thought.
After the draw results came out, not only Alice, but other guilds also did not engage in internal strife.
What he didn't expect was that his opponent in the first round of the draw was actually another acquaintance, and an old acquaintance at that.
Sister Hookah from Rose Heart.
"This is inevitable."
I didn't care too much about it.
Meeting Yueya Wanwan before was just a coincidence of probability, but now we have reached the top 100 competition. The circle of top players is there and the probability of meeting acquaintances is higher. It is normal to compete with the same guild in the later stages.
In the city of At, the arena was still bustling with activity. The thousands of eliminated players had now turned into spectators, cheering and paying attention to the top 100 protagonists who had entered the arena.
"Sister Feng, we'll be there first. We'll cheer you on then~"
"Come on, don't let us and Alice down!"
Including Ji Chen, Shi Xuan and others, the guild members who did not make it into the top 100 welcomed us. After leaving words of encouragement and cheering, they all returned to their seats, cheering us on with silent waves and lip movements.
When I stepped into the center of the arena with Sister Qiu Ru and the others, I vaguely felt a pair of gazes coming towards me from afar. I opened the beeping communication and found out the answer.
Hookah: 1
I was a little amused and went back to the same number.
The scene in front of me also changed as the countdown to the start of the game ended.
Chapter 138 Hookah Sister
系统提示:参赛选手【以瞳】进入DB086号比赛地图,限定时间【9:00—12:00】,匹配对手【水烟(117级重甲战士)】,目前共有【17072561名】观众选择收看比赛。
Both of them are ranked in the top ten in comprehensive points, so it goes without saying that this duel is very attractive to the audience.
In addition, the Top 100 competition has attracted more attention than the Top 1,000 competition. The already high number of viewers has now climbed to a new peak. After all, the popularity of the eliminated players is a huge base number, and it is a considerable amount when divided equally among the remaining people. This is also the hidden wealth that every Top 100 player obtains from the competition.
In line with the popularity, the map area of the Top 10 Championship has also expanded a lot, reaching an average of nearly 3 square kilometers, and the game time has also been extended to hours, divided into three time periods: morning, noon and evening. Although the time has been postponed, due to the rule of tie-breaking, I am afraid no one would be willing to drag it to the end, which is a good thing for the audience.
This DB086 game map is a plain terrain, but there are also many obstacles and shelters such as hills, woods, and shrubs on the map, so the mage's advantage in attack distance is not very obvious here. It is possible to move the main battle field to a suitable location, but the battle situation changes rapidly, so how can everything go as you wish?
Therefore, the mage's advantage over the top shield warrior profession in this kind of map is very small.
In addition, he knew Sister Shuiyan's strength well, especially since she had already inherited the War Lord's legacy. If he didn't use his trump card, he would most likely fall. It would be better to use a more flexible profession to resolve the battle.
Even in the general perception of players, thieves are restrained by warriors.
But with the degree of freedom in the era, how can there be any established rules?
call--
The plain was quiet, with only a few breezes blowing from afar, like a mother's palm soothing the earth, causing the leaves among the trees to rustle.
I turned on stealth mode, stood on the top of the tallest tree on a hill, tiptoed and looked into the distance to see if I could find any trace of Sister Shisha.
After searching for more than ten minutes from the initial position, and even sending out two Lawrence phantoms to search, there was still no result. Even this was so difficult for him, it would probably take at least half an hour for other matches just to find the opponent.
This is probably one of the disadvantages of expanding the map area. I don’t know if it will be a bit tormenting for the live broadcast audience. Anyway, I already find it a bit boring.
But just as I was about to jump down from the top of the tree and move forward a distance.
One of the phantoms suddenly felt something.
I teleported over immediately with a thought, and arrived at the hillside 600 yards north-west of my original position. After I repaired Lawrence's wings, the distance limit and recovery time of Lawrence's phantom were greatly improved.
I opened my eyes and looked up, and saw a vague shadow wandering in the distant sky.
Of course I didn't think this was an ordinary bird, so I asked Ahri to bless me with the Eye of the Wind. The black shadow came into view, and just as I expected, it was the pet I had given to Sister Shuiyan.
Flaming Snake Dragon (Pet): Level 110, HP: 280000/280000
Its appearance has changed a lot compared to before. Its size has doubled, and its fiery red scales sparkle in the sunlight. From a distance, it looks like dancing flames.
In addition, it has the ability to fly at high altitudes, which is different from other pets. It is obvious that it is well fed by Sister Hookah.
I don't know what the uncle's one is like.
I had this inexplicable thought, but quickly retracted it.
Sister Shuiyan must have sent the Flame Snake Dragon out to scout the surroundings because she couldn't find her own location.
If the player is not a summoner, the combat pet cannot be more than 300 yards away from its owner, and with the exception of Ahri, most combat pets have basically no telepathic ability. So according to this calculation, Sister Shuiyan must be in the woods under the Flame Snake Dragon.
But the forest is very large, and the flying altitude of the Flame Snake Dragon is about 200 yards. The horizontal distance difference is about 230 yards, and the radius of the circle drawn is not a small number. If the terrain inside is complicated, it will be more difficult to find the exact location. Even if there is no danger if you go in rashly, there will probably be some trouble.
Looking at the red shadow in the sky.
A thought vaguely emerged in my mind, as long as my expectation was correct.
"Ahri."
The flaming snake dragon hovering in the sky meticulously scans the surrounding movements to ensure that it can gain immediate insight before any accidents occur to ensure the safety of its master.
Just as it turned its gaze further to the south, it suddenly caught a glimpse of a flash of light on the opposite hillside. A green tornado carrying dozens of sharp wind blades gradually enlarged in its field of vision.
The Flame Snake Dragon did not move, because these attacks were limited by the spell range more than a hundred yards in front of it and turned into the most basic wind element and dissolved in the air.
The enemy is on the opposite hillside.
Not only did this spell fail to cause any damage, but it also exposed the opponent's position. The Flame Snake Dragon let out an excited hiss and swooped down from the sky, intending to inform its master of the news.
However, just when its body had fallen a distance.
A strange whistling sound was heard.
Several sharp ice spikes flew in from the edge of the woods. The Flame Snake Dragon barely dodged two of them, but was hit by the subsequent four attacks, leaving bloody wounds.
The previous tornado blade was just a delaying spell that I used to keep Ahri in place, but this attack is the real killer move.
Four damages worth tens of thousands emerged, reducing the Flame Snake Dragon's health by more than one-seventh in just the first contact. This Flame Snake Dragon was born from a leader-level pet egg. Even though it does not have the defense of a leader, it is far superior to ordinary pets and can be compared to the current mainstream front row. But unfortunately, it is facing the lord's offspring.
The flaming snake dragon let out a sharp wail, suppressed the pain, and flapped its wings as it fell toward somewhere in the woods.
I was waiting at the edge of the woods early, and I activated Shadow Step and Ahri's Blessing of Wind and followed the trajectory of its landing. It only took me more than ten seconds to find the target.
In an open space beside a stream in the middle of the forest, a slender and graceful figure had just put the injured Flame Snake Dragon into the pet space.
The huge shield with a gold-rimmed black background and a horn and thunder mark outlined on it shines brightly, and the knight's sword glows with a strange light in the sun, contrasting with the slender body behind him, like the difference between a beauty and a beast, but the existence of the beast also makes it impossible to ignore the threat of the beauty.
Shi Yan put away the Flame Snake Dragon's eyes and kept scanning the surroundings, with a rare serious look on his elegant face.
The fact that the Flame Snake Dragon was attacked meant that the opponent must be nearby or about to approach. She knew the latter's strength, so even as the chief shield warrior of Rose Heart, she had to be cautious.
In fact, it wasn't just her, someone else had the same idea.
Chapter 139: A Bad Start
Somewhat difficult to handle.
I hid behind a tree and thought about my attack strategy. The position chosen by Sister Shisha was very tricky.
The surrounding area was open with few trees or shrubs blocking the view. She was at a slightly higher point with a wide view, and the stream formed a small protective circle on her side.
For thieves, there is no terrain more worthy of defense than streams, snow, etc.
The sound of stepping on water when crossing the stream, the footprints left on the snow, these are physical traces that the thief cannot eliminate by simply sneaking. Even if he wants to approach silently, it is difficult, and the speed must be slowed down as much as possible, so that the thief cannot play the biggest advantage.
From this point of view alone, it is obvious that Sister Shuiyan is very experienced in dealing with thieves. This kind of terrain cannot be said to be completely defended, and it is very difficult for thieves to launch a sneak attack.
But you have to try to verify whether it is difficult.
While Shiyan's gaze was shifting elsewhere, I decisively launched a sharp blade attack, and my figure turned into a stream of light and attacked from the front.
A thief is a profession that keeps his sword hidden most of the time, and only shows his sharp edge when the target shows the slightest flaw, and he will do his best to make a stunning debut.
But the fact proved that I still underestimated my opponent.
Shiyan was the first to notice the movement behind her, and the Immortal Glory in her hand, which had advanced to the epic level, turned around at an incredible angle.
Clang, clang, clang, clang...
The blade and the shield collided with each other with a crisp sound, and actually blocked all of my sudden attacks.
Not only that, she took advantage of the situation and launched a counterattack without any pause or hesitation.
