Chapter 1710: Chapter 1710: Coming and Going

The core group of the Blood Clothes League also consists of experts; for clearing these kinds of instances, they generally dispatch the most core and powerful team.

They are already considered top-notch game experts. In the eyes of ordinary players, they are like game gods, always capable of taking on multiple opponents single-handedly.

This Paladin is the same, although the arrows are extremely fast, he has calculated the arrows’ trajectory through their ricocheting.

Although he doesn’t want to admit it, he knows very well that he is no match for Li Yao in battle, but he is very confident in catching one arrow from Li Yao.

His seemingly conservative approach is actually meticulously calculated, having worked out the final ricochet trajectory of the arrows.

He calculated that the target is their leader, the warrior in charge of commanding.

But the warrior needed to deal with the crisis approaching him; if he were to dodge, or continuously dodge without commanding the team, it would disrupt their team’s rhythm.

The leading warrior discerned this, so he confidently let the Paladin take charge of defense, while he handled an even greater crisis.

Whether it’s the ice blades or the four Steel Arrows, the threat to them is immense.

However, when he took his place, the arrows did not follow the original trajectory.

The last ricochet point was way too close to them, and the speed of the arrows was extremely fast due to Li Yao’s terrifyingly immense power.

They can only make judgments based on predictions and then make their decisions; in the short distance between the flash of lightning, wanting to react and continue moving to block the arrows, not only was he unable to do it, but even if Li Yao’s spiritual power reacted, his body’s speed couldn’t keep up.

So the arrows flew past, not hitting the leader but directly hitting the engineer who was quickly checking the status of the cannons.

The engineer was proficiently checking the cannons, loading artillery shells.

No one expected the arrows to come at a bizarre angle, perfectly bypassing a few melee fighters and hitting him among the protected crowd.

The engineer’s mouth was agape, but from his mouth to the back of his brain, the arrows had already penetrated.

The arrows not only killed the engineer but also pinned a healer Druid against the wall behind him.

With one arrow, Li Yao achieved double targets; essentially, the core target had always been the engineer, and the healer was just collateral.

The engineer was too important; without the engineer, all those engineering machines on the scene lost their buffs, drastically reducing damage. Moreover, without buffs, loading, maintenance, and correction would take longer, but if their actions were quick enough, during the opponent’s second round of attack, they could kill everyone on the opposition.

It was only until the System prompted teammate death that they truly realized.

The Paladin stared blankly at the wall under the protection of the invincible Holy Shield, only then did he see that there was a small bump at the last ricochet point of the arrows.

It was precisely this small bump that changed the intended trajectory of the arrows, rendering the pre-calculated route obsolete, costing them dearly.

The intended target was naturally the leading warrior, but due to the bump, it directly killed the engineer and a healer.

If this was just a coincidence, then there’s nothing to say, only blaming their bad luck.

But if this was all calculated by Prairie Fire from the start, then it is extremely frightening.

However, the result proved that killing the engineer and the healer was perhaps even more severe than killing the commander, causing the team to lose its invisible core instantly.

The reason they managed to hold this place, killing several batches of players consecutively, even defeating teams of forty people, was essentially due to the sharp engineering machines boosted by the engineer, under the strikes of engineering machines, the opposing teams collapsed, leading to their easy victory.

But this time, their real core was killed, and they lost a healer as well; you could say their team was now crippled by a third.

Was this a calculated result in advance? For others, surely it’s just luck. But in Prairie Fire’s case, is it really just luck? The Paladin wasn’t sure anymore.

Thinking deeply is terrifying; if his guess is true, then how terrifying would the opponent be? He thought about it but didn’t want to admit it, for fear of losing the confidence to chase after the peak. Such manipulation and control were simply too terrifying to imagine.

"If you want to annihilate our team, these means are not enough."

The leading warrior suddenly tore open the scroll in his hand, causing a blue light to flicker.

The endless water vapor between heaven and earth gathered, forming a massive blue Magic Shield that protected their team.

They seemed to be in a giant bubble, watching the team leader launch the Water Blue Guardian, the members relaxed and continued methodically loading the Steel Arrows and cannons.

They didn’t believe that their defensive and engineering machines, which had always been successful, were somehow ineffective; they believed such means were consumable and couldn’t reverse the course forever.

They had encountered opponents using scrolls before; after all, any magical items here had their power multiplied.

No matter how formidable the opponent was, none could withstand three waves of their attacks.

At the same time, the Steel Arrows reverse-controlled by the magic serpent woman and the countless ice blades controlled by the blue dragon queen had reached them.

Papapapapapapa...

The ice blades fell like rain on the Water Blue Guardian, causing the Barrier of Water Blue Guardian to ripple, weakening its defensive thickness.

Seconds later, the ice blades all dispersed.

"Second wave, release!"

As soon as all attacks vanished, the warrior captain immediately ordered.

"Did the first try fail? Still going for the second? How naive and cute."

The magic serpent woman’s silver eyes were cold and merciless, still controlling four Steel Arrows. The blue dragon queen boredly yawned, and with a wave conjured two more ice dragons.

The result was the same as before: countless ice blades and Steel Arrows backfiring on the Water Blue Barrier.

Seeing the ice blades fall like raindrops, the black dragon queen laughed and said, "No need to continue; I’ll lend a hand to break their trash barrier. This barrier defends external attacks but allows internal attacks. Let me destroy it from the inside."

"Earth Vein · Volcano."

Bang!

A rumble seemingly from the Void enveloped everyone opposite with an illusory volcano.

At the same time, the ground began to crack, revealing scalding magma and exuding an impossibly intense heat.

"Damn it, abandon the Water Blue Barrier and dodge into the side passage," the leading warrior’s face changed dramatically.

While the Succubus Queen giggled, "Sweetie, now is the time to prove how obsessed you are with me."

With the Succubus Queen’s words, the Mage, who had been dazedly loading ammunition in the middle of the team, revealed a silly grin reminiscent of Tie Niu drooling at the sight of the pretty neighbor lady.

"For the Queen."

The Mage mumbled, and simultaneously, a ring of blue ice spread outward...
