Chapter 996: TEAM YUNYUE'S FIRST QUALIFYING MATChapter (V)

THE Archer, the one who had been knocked down from his back, tried to get up and see the person who had just passed by him. But his surroundings suddenly turned blurry, like it was glitching or something, until it completely changed. As if he had been transported to a different place altogether.

If, a while ago, he was in front of a butcher show and was trying to finish off the bandit leader before he was attacked, now he was in the middle of a forest being attacked by a swarm of bees!

What this poor soul didn't know was that he was subjected to certain kitsune's illusion skill. This illusion would only last for 10 seconds. But by the time it ended, the match would have probably also ended.

Because the one who passed by the Archer just now was none other than Luo Yan.

He and Eclipse had been following the Archer and Assassin since earlier. The two of them were assigned to locate the bandit leader, and they just happened to come across them.

The moment Luo Yan saw the two, he knew that they were much more experienced than him or Eclipse in tracking. So, he didn't hesitate to follow them. Hoping to turn it into a situation of 'catching the mantis while hunting the cicada, but unaware of the oriole behind'.

Of course, he and Eclipse were the 'oriole' in this situation.

And just like Luo Yan predicted, the two members of the opposing team really managed to track the location of the bandit leader. He was even slightly surprised when he saw one of them activating some kind of 'invisibility' skill to enter the butcher shop.

He didn't rush forward and waited. He wanted to make sure first if the bandit leader was indeed in this place. Not long after, an explosion sounded and the butcher shop was completely blown off. But a huge figure remained amidst the burning butcher shop.

It was a male NPC whose whole body was burning from head to toe. Just by the sheer size of this NPC, Luo Yan could tell that the other was most likely the bandit leader. And the fact that the NPC was on fire right now with that other player with invisibility skill nowhere in sight meant that the latter most likely sacrificed himself to deliver a huge blow to the former.

If his guess was right, then the player who remained outside would now be preparing to deliver the finishing blow to the bandit leader. And just like he thought, the player was pointing an arrow at the huge NPC.

So, he told Eclipse to stop the other. While he rushed forward to attack the bandit leader.

And this was the situation now.

Luo Yan was almost in front of the bandit leader. His two daggers were already both in his hands. He knew that this NPC should have taken a lot of damage from the explosion earlier. So, all he needed to do was attack the other with a powerful skill to ensure that it would be quickly eliminated.

He used [Strike Kill].

It's one of his more powerful skills against a single enemy. It's like a one-shot move that only got stronger the higher his level was.

He didn't mind the flame surrounding the bandit leader. He jumped in front of the other and slashed at his neck. As soon as he did that, the bandit leader's head flew and fell to the ground with a thud. Then it quickly turned into light particles, as well as his headless, burning body.

Right after that, an announcement appeared, accompanied by fireworks.

[The bandit leader is defeated.]

[Calculating the scores...]

[<Yunyue - 1327> <Valor - 124>]

[Winner: Yunyue]

[Congratulations!]

[LOL what did I just watch?]

[I suddenly feel sorry for team Valor.]

[That was savage. It's like team Valor was completely playing under team Yunyue's palm from start to finish.]

[Morganite captured that watchtower like she was only walking in a park.]

[Amazing Master Jin is so cute! Did you see him bombard that watchtower? It's like watching a kid pretending to be cool. Hahaha!]

[YUN is still the best.]

[Have you seen White Marsh's face when he's the only who hasn't captured a tower? Hilarious. LOL.]

[Noctis and his pet fox are definitely the MVPs here.]

[Nah, things would definitely not turn out the same if White Marsh didn't defeat team Valor's captain.]

[This match was definitely just the result of team Yunyue's individual members' abilities. If the strategy they made was put into action by some unknown team, it would definitely not succeed like that.]

[I agree. It also didn't help that team Valor was basically a rookie team that didn't have much experience.]

[Right? It's an unfair match from the beginning.]

[Don't they feel ashamed of bullying others like this? Look just how Noctis stole team Valor's chance to defeat the bandit leader. If he's not being so sneaky, team Valor would have won.]????????.???

[Hey, these people barking, are your brains not working?]

[What kind of dumb shit are you saying? How can Noctis 'steal' something that didn't belong to the other? The chance to kill the boss NPC belonged to both teams! Do you honestly think that team Valor were the only ones allowed to kill the bandit leader?]

[And what's sneaky about it? This is what you call 'working smarter, not harder'.]

[I bet these people complaining were the same ones who constantly call team Yunyue fallen champions. Now that they won so easily, these people probably felt like being slapped in the face.]

[Or they could also be people who bet against team Yunyue winning and were now suffering financial loss.]

[It's definitely the latter. There's no way they would be this bitter if not. LOL.]

[Congratulations to team Yunyue for winning!]

[Yes, congratulations! Don't mind the nonsensical comments. You guys definitely deserve this win.]

[Please, continue to do your best for the upcoming matches! We'll definitely cheer you on!]

[Team Yunyue, number one!]

[Congrats, congrats!~]

And that's how the first qualifying match of team Yunyue ended.
