The King's ReturnCh245.1 - Mojue VS Graceful Beauty

translator: Oyen

In the first round, Mojue won at home without suspense. In the second round, although the home and away games would be exchanged, the audience was not optimistic about Graceful Beauty team. Xu Sizhe’s consciousness was far from Qin Mo. Even if Graceful Beauty was a comprehensive team with a complete eight sects lineup, he didn’t know how to deal with Qin Mo. Pb4WRj

Many audiences were distressed for Sizhe on screen. While sitting in the soundproof room, Xu Sizhe listened to the cheers from the fans outside and was upset for a moment. He had been prepared before the game, but he suddenly lost confidence and always felt that no matter how he played in the second round, he would lose…

At this time, Tan Xi suddenly came over and seriously suggested. “Captain, our Graceful Beauty team have always been scored at bottom, and there is no hope in fighting Mojue. It’s better for us to go all out, even if we lose, don’t lose too much.”

Xu Sizhe was stunned. Looking at her eyes, he felt ashamed…

At the beginning, Graceful Beauty team was set up because he was resentful after leaving Dragon Song and could not get used to Qin Mo’s approach. He wanted to find a few teammates to beat Mojue’s face. When he set up Graceful Beauty team in Netcom district, he offered a high salary in order to recruit experts, but not all the players came for money. Most of these players joined Graceful Beauty with the thought that they could play well. g4EGLf

The strength of the temporary team formed by folk players was not as strong as that of professionals club, but in the early days of the establishment of the team, instead of focusing on studying the competition system and training players, he had been staring at Twin Stars, looking for ways to defeat Qin Mo and Xiao Han.

He was blinded by hatred and forgot what he should do most.

Graceful Beauty team had fallen to today’s situation, the culprit was him as the captain himself. Unfortunately, the team members who followed him were in a fog for more than half a year. They believed in him all the time and did not hesitate to listen to his command. However, they did not know that he was a selfish and ambitious captain, he was not qualified to lead these young people with dreams!

Xu Sizhe still remembered that after the last three-players competition with Qin Mo, Graceful Beauty team was deducted into negative points. When Qin Mo shook hands with him on the big stage, he said —— Good luck, think more for the team members, don’t make them feel like they followed the wrong captain.

Qin Mo was open minded and didn’t mind about him targeting Mojue. In Qin Mo’s eyes, maybe Xu Sizhe was not worth caring about at all.

He realised this at the time and began to think of ways to change himself to fulfill the responsibility of the captain, but it was too late. The psychological shadow Qin Mo caused and made him always unconsciously target Qin Mo. For example, in today’s game, he tried very hard to consider the overall situation, but in the end, when banning secret books, he subconsciously banned Qin Mo’s most frequently used secret book first…

It was not that he couldn’t let go.

Rather, Qin Mo was like a mountain on top of his head, so that he could not get out of this shadow. b8lDT5

“That’s right,” The healer beside him smiled. “The worst-case scenario is that at the end of this season, we are still at the bottom. Next year, we can play in repechage and start new, there is nothing to be afraid of!”

Everyone’s comfort made Xu Sizhe even more ashamed——if it wasn’t for him, how could Graceful Beauty team become the bottom team that anyone could bully? The strength of several players in the team was still good. If they played well, they could at least win a few games, right?

After a long silence, Xu Sizhe gazed back at Tan Xi and whispered. “Xiao Xi, you are in charge of the second round.” ou6zIn

Tan Xi was the only female player in the Graceful Beauty team. She joined Graceful Beauty because she happened to be in Netcom district two and saw Xu Sizhe’s recruitment promotion. At the beginning, she fought against Xiao Han in the all-sect challenge arena, although she lost, her mood was very calm. As an assassin player, she probably played an invisible assassin for a long time, and her character was also very calm. Xu Sizhe knew that her consciousness was actually much stronger than himself. As she said, even if they lost, they couldn’t lose too badly.

In the second round, Xu Sizhe had no clue at all, and simply let Tan Xi try to command. Fortunately, Tan Xi was not the kind of person who would make a fuss, so she simply agreed. “Alright, then I’ll be the one who will give medicine to the dead horse, I’ll give it a try.”

The second round of the game soon began, and the players from both sides sat in the command seats. The audience was surprised to find that the commander of the Graceful Beauty team was actually replaced by the female player Tan Xi. 2Oke0Z

Qin Mo was also a little surprised, but at the same time he felt relieved.

Xu Sizhe did have extreme thoughts, always thinking that he was driven away by Qin Mo, so he still wanted revenge on Qin Mo, but fortunately, although he was extreme, he would not be stupid and hopeless. Probably after Graceful Beauty was scored negative, he realised his own problems and learned to change slowly. This was a good phenomenon. At least, other members of Graceful Beauty’s team were innocent, if Xu Sizhe played to his death by himself, it was indeed to reap what he had sown, but if the whole team was buried with him, Qin Mo thought it wasn’t worth it for the other team members.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Tan Xi’s thinking was indeed much clearer than Xu Sizhe. She lost the secret letter mode in the first round, and in the second round, she decisively chose the escort mode.

Choosing escort mode at home would automatically become the defensive side. The defensive side’s winning condition was to escort the escort team to transport the goods to the destination. The escort team included a chief escort and four escorts. The offensive side needed to kill all the escort teams and intercept the goods. It was not easy to kill so many NPCs, and with the protection of a meat shield and healer, they would have a chance of winning if they survive a certain period of time. IhXsuf

Seeing this, Ye Chao couldn’t help but comment. “After losing in secret letter mode in the first round, there’s nothing wrong with choosing the escort mode to play defensive in this round. Now, I wonder which map will she choose?”

“There are not many available maps for the escort mode.” Liang Ru replied. “Air combat and swamp maps are not available in this escort mode, the transport goods could only be carried on flat ground or waterways. Waterways are transported by ships, and the opponent may sneak under the water. The defensive side will be very disadvantaged, I prefer to choose a land transport map.”

Soon, Tan Xi submitted a map—— Mingzhou Suburbs.

“Sure enough,” Ye Chao commented. “This map is the shortest one among all the escort mode maps. The escort will start from the west gate of Mingzhou City and transport the goods to the foot of the mountain in the suburb. The total distance is only 800 meters. On the way through a forest, there are no traps in the forest, which is relatively simple terrain.” IHWkSv

“The lineup has also come out…” Liang Ru added, “Graceful Beauty’s lineup consist of a meat shield, milk, auxiliary, long range summoner, and mobile assassin.”

“It is indeed a very strong defensive lineup.” Ye Chao replied. “It seems that Tan Xi’s idea is very clear, that is, she wants to spend time with Mojue. As long as she lets the escort team deliver the goods, they will win.”

Seeing this lineup, Qin Mo was also in favor of Tan Xi’s approach—— compared to Xu Sizhe’s random fight, this Tan Xi could at least stabilise her mentality, so she wouldn’t be messed up because of losing a game. Her idea was no problem, choosing the map with the shortest distance, sending a large number of defensive players, and holding on until the escort team completed the task, this was their only chance of victory.

How would Mojue respond? The audience was guessing, then Qin Mo simply submitted the lineup—— Xiao Han, Qin Mo, Shen He, Pei Yu, Liu Hong. WMVYZX

Seeing this lineup, the audience screamed. “All output team!”

“God Mo really goes all out!”

Ye Chao also smiled helplessly. “Qin Mo is so straightforward. You are in defensive mode and want to drag the escort to the finish line, right? So, I will do all the output and kill you halfway!”

Liang Ru replied. “It seems that god Mo wants to make a quick fight, He doesn’t let Qingyue, Xiao He and Muran play. He directly sent out five crispy outputs. Obviously, he didn’t want to drag the rhythm with the opposite side. But…This kind of extreme pure output lineup has very low fault tolerance. If you don’t beat the other side to death and your own side dies first, it’s easy to collapse completely.” eEPnsr

“It’s not a problem to use ‘Quick sword cuts through tangled hemp’ ways to fight Graceful Beauty,” Ye Chao explained. “To be more objective, Graceful Beauty’s players are indeed slightly weaker, and the performance of the meat shield and healer in this competition is relatively average. If today’s opponent is replaced by Dynasty——master T Chu Jianxin, or replaced by Sky—— milk god Xuewei, if these two teams are in defensive mode, I don’t think Qin Mo would dare to move forward and send a crispy five players lineup. But against Graceful Beauty, Mojue’s crispy lineup still has a very big win.”

The game mode, map and lineup had been determined, and the next stage was banning secret books.

Because it was Qin Mo’s away game, he banned the secret books first, ‘Not Broken Deity’, ‘Vajra Sutra’, ‘Questioning Heart Sutra’ was banned by him, the first two were immunity to damage and set a defensive shield for teammates. The last one was a group healing secret book, which could instantly return the percentage of blood to the whole team. The blood volume of the escort and the chief escort was not low, and it would be very difficult to fight if they took this secret book and use it to return blood.

“Qin Mo’s brain is fast, facing the defensive mode, he banned all the defensive secret books! You can guess which one he’s going to grab first?” Ye Chao commented. CSbNdJ

After the banning stage, Qin Mo was given the priority to choose the secret book first, and he immediately selected ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’.

The audience understood his idea, and many people commented on screen to explain: “Because Qingyue doesn’t play in this round! If the opposite takes the ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’ secret book and uses it to Mojue five outputs, the chaos effect will be terrible!”

“Indeed, ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’ is a chaos secret book, and if the five outputs fight each other, they are likely to beat their own people to death. There’s nothing wrong with taking this one away first.”

When it was Tan Xi’s turn, she first took away the ‘Pivoting Heart Sutra’—— one of the two secret books from Fangcao Hall. ‘Questioning Heart Sutra’ was a team healing, while ‘Pivoting Heart Sutra’ abolished the healing effect. She took it away in case the healing was abolished at the critical moment, the escort might be killed by a wave of attack. If this still couldn’t be prevented, she took the second secret book of ‘Cleansing Heart Mantra’, which was a secret book for removing control. In case they were controlled by the opponent, in addition to the healing and auxiliary skills for removing control, one more secret book for removing control would provide one more guarantee. uzXnRt

Seeing Tan Xi’s idea of taking the secret book, Sang Jun, who was watching in Dynasty’s side, couldn’t help to comment. “Xu Sizhe should give up his position earlier. This girl is more reliable than him.”

Chu Jianxin smiled. “The most taboo thing in the competition is that the train of thought is not clear enough, rather than the opponent saw through your thought. Tan Xi is really thoughtful and has not been disturbed by Qin Mo. If it is changed to Sizhe, after seeing Qin Mo banned defense and healing secret book, he will be muddled and doesn’t know what to choose.”

“En,” Sang Jun agreed. “Graceful Beauty’s bottom rank is hard to change, and they may be eliminated next season. It’s a pity for Tan Xi to stay at Graceful Beauty. I have a hunch that after this game, Li Junru may be the first to dig her out to the National Grace.”

“Sangsang, it’s rare to see that you have such a high opinion of a certain player. You won’t take a fancy to this girl’s face, right?” Chu Jianxin joked. Nol1xA

Sang Jun: “…”

——No, I have a strong taste and have a crush on the fool you.

Sang Jun was helpless, still maintaining his calmness and replied. “Let’s watch the game.”
