Chapter 1029 YUNYUE VS SANGUIS (III)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
AS everyone was fighting, a certain elf was traversing inside the shadow world, holding a relic in his arms. He was on his way to the heart of the Tundra, as the game system had hinted.With the word 'heart', there's really only one direction that people would think when they heard it. The center. And that's where he's headed.
When they were formulating a strategy against team Sanguis, they had already considered a 1 vs 1 fight instead of a full-blown team fight. Of course, it would depend on what kind of battle they would have when they faced team Sanguis. And this glacial siege was just the right type of battle to use this strategy.
If this was some kind of tower defense or battle arena, it would be hard to execute that strategy. When they saw what kind of battle they would have, they all thought that it should be 1 vs 1, instead of facing them as a team head on.
Team Sanguis was a pain in the ass to deal with as a team. It's not just because of their skills, each of their avatar's race also had to do with it. The unique traits of their avatars only amplified their skills. And when they fought as a team, those skills shined even more.
Each and every one of them complement each other that even if the opposing team was technically stronger than them in terms of firepower, they would still win. Funnily enough, their teamwork was usually a mess. With one team member going off doing their own thing, and another doing the same. And yet, when it counted, they would exhibit team work that they usually wouldn't.
Team Yunyue had done enough research to know that team Sanguis didn't usually utilized this 'team work' at the start of a match. So, they knew they had to do what their planning at the very begginning. When the opposing team least expected it. They knew it would work since team Sanguis had no choice but to go over to where they were to win this match.
Team Sanguis' task was to destroy the relic. They couldn't accomplish that by staying at their starting point. They had to go where team Yunyue was to destroy the relic. And when they did, that's when the plan would start.
It's simple, really. They planned to use one of the items they got as a reward from being the first one to clear the newly added dungeon. The item was called [Riftward Key (Imitation)]. An SS rank item that could teleport an individual or a group to a desired location or different locations by the one who used it.
It could only be used once, since it was only an imitation of the real one. Once used, it would automatically turn to light particles.
The reason for its SS rank, despite it being just a one time used item, was because items that could do site-wide teleportation where the user could also control where they would send the people being teleported was very rare. Especially items that could be used in battles and dungeon raids. Heck, there wasn't even a skill that could do that.
Because having something like that could break the balance of a game, especially when it came to team battles.
They had already decided to use this item against team Sanguis if they ever met the other in the qualifiers. One might say that it's too much considering that they only had one of it, but if they didn't use it now, then when?
Granted that even if they lost in this match, they would still advance to the final tournament. After all, each bracket would have two teams that would advance on the next stage. But even so, it didn't mean that they should just give up this match.
Not that they couldn't win without using [Riftward Key]. They could, but it would take a long and complicated strategy to do it. If there's a much easier and faster way, why shouldn't they use it? This was a battle. Who cared about just winning with pure strength? The important thing was who won in the end. It's not like they're cheating or something, anyway.
When they were deciding who would fight with who, the first thing that they quickly decided was that Su Yuqi would take on Lilith. The latter being a Succubus, Su Yuqi was their only choice. After that, Luo Yan was tasked with getting the relic to the center of the Tundra. With his [Shadow Walk] skill, it would be easier for him to do it. Eclipse would, of course, help him along the way.
The remaining three didn't really care who they would fight. But in the end, they decided that Luo Jin would remain at the starting point of the team and would fight with the harpy Skywing. This was with the assumption that the teleportation would not affect the other, since she would be flying in the air. Which was what really happened.
And then Shen Ji Yun and Bai Ze would just fight whichever two who would remain. Why two and not three, you asked? It's because they suspected that one person would go to the center of the Tundra instead of going with the other members of the team.
Since there were two ways for the defending team to win, as the attacking team, they would have to consider which of the two the defending team would go for. If team Sanguis wanted to win, they had to assume that team Yunyue would try to do both. Then, they had to at least send one member of their team to ambush the person who would try to put the relic into the 'heart' of the Tundra. And the rest would go to the defending team's starting point base.
Based on the messages Luo Yan received from his teammates, the one missing from team Sanguis who went to the starting point of team Yunyue was Alucard.
Then he received a telepathic message from Eclipse.
[Master, there's a bit of a problem.]
