Chapter 131 - Cover Strategy (1/2)

Boneyard could be considered fairly s.p.a.cious and empty. Looking at the map: gravestones, coffins, and withered trees were the three most prominent scenery.

As pro-players, Tiny Herb’s four players weren’t scared. Seeing that their opponents had chased them, they immediately began seizing the strategic high grounds. Right now, the four were together. But if they still ran away, then it’d be quite difficult to explain.

The four characters each held their own positions. From an overall perspective, their coordination wasn’t bad.

Ye Xiu saw this and immediately blocked Steamed Bun Invasion from advancing: “Don’t rush.”

“My Brick has already been waiting impatiently for too long.” Steamed Bun Invasion said.

“This is a real team battle.” Ye Xiu said, “Have you watched any of the Pro Alliance’s matches?”

Steamed Bun Invasion obviously said that he hadn’t. Seven Fields said he did. Sleeping Moon said obviously. Tang Rou didn’t say anything. She had watched a total of one, so she didn’t know if that counted as having watched them or not.

“Remember their positions well. We’ll attack them one by one.” Ye Xiu said.

“Brother expert, you should set it up!” Seven Fields made a fist.

“Cross Formation. Steamed Bun Invasion at the front. Seven Fields on the left. Little Moon Moon in the middle. Tang Rou at the back. Myself at the right. Everyone follow me while staying in formation. Don’t break order.” Ye Xiu said.

Sleeping Moon heard “Little Moon Moon”! He didn’t want to cooperate, but he was at the middle. The others all depended on him as the center. The four instantly moved to their front, back, left, right position and he had no choice but to cooperate.

Lord Grim moved and the four immediately followed.

Liu Fei’s Fallen Angel was currently hiding behind a coffin. With regards to Gunners, those types of long-ranged cla.s.ses, using a cover when fighting with an opponent was a common strategy. But using a s.h.i.+eld had its advantages and disadvantages. When they hid, the cover blocked not only the enemy’s field of view, but also their own. So they had no way of knowing the entire situation.

However, in a team, this flaw was covered. Team members could communicate with each other to understand the parts they couldn’t see.

White Night Black Day and Ashen Moon weren’t considered long-ranged cla.s.ses, but they still found a place to hide. With their overlapping views, they could understand the field clearly. In the end, pro-players were still pro-players. This type of defense for attack strategy was quite simple for them.

“The other side is in a Cross Formation. The Brawler at the front, Striker on the left, Blade Master in the middle, Battle Mage in the back, Lord Grim on the right.” White Night Black Day informed everyone of their opponent’s positioning.

“They’re advancing towards Yifan.” Gao Yingjie said.

“Ah……” Qiao Yifan tensed up.

‘Fei Fei get their attention!” Zhou Yebai said. At this moment, Xiao Yun wasn’t there yet, so he acted as the temporarily leader for now.

“Okay!” Liu Fei answered. She suddenly moved. Fallen Angel rolled out from a coffin, crouched, c*cked her gun, and fired.

“Peng!” A gun sound rang out and blood blossomed out from Fallen Angel’s forehead.

Liu Fei was extremely astonished. She didn’t think that she would be the first one to be hit by a shot. On the opponent’s side, smoke slowly drifted out from the tip of Lord Grim’s umbrella-like thing.

Bullets affected the character’s positioning. Hand cannons had the largest push back and had the highest attack. Next was the rifle and last was the handgun.

The Thousand Chance Umbrella’s bullets belonged to the Rifle type. Its firing rate wasn’t as fast as the revolver or handgun, but it had a higher impact.

Fallen Angel staggered back after being hit by the bullet. Liu Fei’s intended surprise attack flew off.

But as a pro-player, she obviously possessed the ability to adapt. Liu Fei controlled Fallen Angel to run back to position, while continuing to fire back.

“Peng!” A second shot rang out and more blood blossomed from Fallen Angel’s body. Her body was. .h.i.t askew and her counterfire missed again.

Liu Fei was even more astonished.

Her opponent’s timing was too perfect, just happening to hit the instant she fired.

If she had been hit slightly earlier, then Liu Fei would have had time to adjust her shot, so it wouldn’t go crooked. If she had been hit slightly later, then obviously, Falling Angel’s bullet would have already flew out and both of them would be hit.

In the end, her opponent’s bullet had hit her twice in the instant her Fallen Angel had fired, making Liu Fei unable to adjust in time.

As a Gunner, Liu Fei knew how difficult it was to pull off such precise timing. She had always thought that that type of legend that could only be done in theory, yet she had just been hit twice like that just now.

The opponent’s Cross Formation had already adjusted towards a new target. They were now rus.h.i.+ng towards her. No matter what had happened, on a whole, she had grabbed the enemy’s attention.

Liu Fei didn’t dare remain out in the open. She hastily ran towards another hiding place.

“Peng Peng!”
