MMORPG: Martial Gamer

In the other resting room, the members from the Kyushu Squad weren’t calm either.

In the past few years, Kyushu Squad had always outclassed the other squads. This was the first time that they were facing an opponent like the Team A Murder Of Crows, thus they were naturally feeling restless as well.

This was especially so for Boundless Ocean. After having exchanged blows with Spring Halo, Boundless Ocean had become more fearful of the Team A Murder Of Crows’ strength.

Initially, Boundless Ocean thought that the opponent only had three experts amongst their ranks. So long as they used the appropriate battle strategy, the battle would be easily won.

However, with the appearance of another new expert, Spring Halo, their current situation was a headache for Boundless Ocean.

Even though the difference between three and four experts was just one additional headcount, the difference in the overall team strength was tremendous.

In terms of battle strategy, when more than half of the team were experts, they would be able to make up for the shortcomings of the other half of the team.

Even though Ming Du’s abilities were a little lacking, he could barely be considered to be an expert-class player, bringing the number of experts in the Team A Murder Of Crows to reach the halfway mark.

Furthermore, Spring Halo’s job class was that of a support controller.

It should be known that the scariest role in a team fight wasn’t that of the damage dealer, but rather than of the controller.

Even if the damage was high, if the abilities were unable to land on the opponent, it would still be useless. However, a controller, on the other hand, could control the tempo of the battle and thus, control the entire fight.

Therefore, if the enemy team only had Wang Yu and the few other damage dealers, Boundless Ocean could still deal with them. However, with the addition of Spring Halo, the battle would become a headache for him.

After all, in terms of battle strategy, Boundless Ocean was fearful of Fearless’ ingenuity. In the past, countless of players in the Termination Manor had been played by him, much less a small team fight like this. Thus, Boundless Ocean wasn’t confident that he was a match for Fearless when it came to battle strategy.

“Boss, so what’s the battle strategy for the next round?”

Upon seeing Boundless Ocean not uttering a single word ever since they returned to the resting room, Sacred Mountain couldn’t help but take the initiative to ask the question.

Boundless Ocean muttered under his breath and said, “In the last round, we should fight while leveraging on our advantage.”

The members of the Kyushu Squad were stunned speechless and said, “Our advantage? Individual strength? This is a team fight, not a PK battle!”

“Not individual strength, but the map location!” Boundless Ocean clarified and said, “Since we are able to choose the map location in the final round, this will be our geographical advantage!”

Indeed, all the professional experts were of the same nature. When they were not confident of finishing off the opponent, they would do their best to leverage on the location to take them out.

Boundless Ocean knew that he may lose to Fearless when it came to formulating a battle strategy, thus he decided to leverage on their right to choose to map location.

“Map location?” Sacred Mountain pondered over it for a while before asking, “Which one do you think is more advantageous for us?”

“Didn’t everyone witness it themselves?” Boundless Ocean smiled and said, “Why were we unable to pull apart the point gap?”

“The previous round?” Sacred Mountain suddenly came to a realisation and said, “Are you talking about Overlooking Peak?”

“That’s right!” Boundless Ocean nodded his head and said.

Overlooking Peak was a map with an extremely high geographical terrain and only possessed a narrow pathway up the mountain. Ranged job classes situated at the top of the mountain would be able to possess additional vision and attack range, thus it was easy for the team occupying the higher ground to leverage on this terrain advantage.

In the previous round, the only player that had some ability was Spring Halo. The reason why the rest of them were able to obtain some points was because they had leveraged on this.

…

According to the system in <<REBIRTH, the home team would always spawn at the peak of the mountain. In the previous round, Team A Murder Of Crows was the home team and thus they had managed to occupy the higher ground and leverage on this terrain advantage. In the next round, however, Kyushu Squad will be the home team, and thus the advantage will be passed to them.

With such a terrain advantage, the players that were sent from the Team A Murder Of Crows, with their amateur player standards, were able to emerge victorious. If the Kyushu Squad, which comprised of experts in all of their ranks, were to have this advantage, they would naturally be undefeatable then.

Upon hearing Boundless Ocean’s explanation, the people from Kyushu Squad finally understood what he meant.

After realising this, Sacred Mountain smiled pridefully and said, “Haha, Boss is truly great! Those people would never expect that we would use their own tactics against them.”

“Haha, Old Sacred is right!”

The rest of the members hurriedly gave their praise for Boundless Ocean, causing Boundless Ocean to reveal a smug expression.

…

The moment the break time ended, both teams returned to the arena.

Kyushu Squad would be the one to choose the location this time around.

Boundless Ocean went forward and ultimately chose Overlooking Peak once more!

In the professional tournament, there has never been the case in which the same map was selected twice in the same match-up. Thus, Boundless Ocean choice this time around was beyond the expectations of the audience.

The audience couldn’t help but exclaim, “To use the enemy’s tactics against them? No wonder they are Kyushu Squad!”

On the other hand, however, when Fearless saw the choice of map, he didn’t reveal any trace of shock. But rather, a sly smile crept up on his face.

“F*ck! Shameless!”

Ming Du cried out in panic and shouted, “They copied us! I object!”

The referee firmly replied, “Objection overruled!”

The audience gleefully cheered and said, “There’s no restriction when it comes to choosing the map location, copy your sister!”

“F*ck!”

If it were not because he was afraid of receiving the red card and getting sent out of the stage, Ming Du would have already hurled a string of vulgarities over.

Fearless hurriedly comforted him and said, “Relax, everything is under control.”

“Bullsh*t!”

Ming Du frantically said, “You do know the advantage brought about from occupying a higher ground. If they were to occupy the mountain peak, how do we stand a chance against them?”

After having tasted the fruit of occupying the higher ground in this map, allowing him to triumph over Innocent Playmate, whose skills were leaps and bounds above his, Ming Du would naturally not dare to slight this advantage brought about from occupying the higher ground.

Spring Halo at the side fondled his chin and said, “That’s right, Fearless, so long as they are able to occupy the higher ground, they have basically won the battle.”

“Heng heng!” Fearless cheekily smiled and said, “Has Brother Spring ever watched the Battle of The Three Kingdoms?”

“I have seen it…” Spring Halo nodded his head and said.

“Ma Su also had the same thought in the past…” Fearless added.

Spring Halo, “…”

F*ck, in the past, there was nothing wrong with Ma Su’s strategy, just that he happened to overlook the need for a water source, resulting in him losing a battle of attrition against his opponent despite him occupying the higher ground. The battle this time round was within a game, did Fearless plan on trapping their opponent on the mountain for a few months?

Even though Spring Halo had countless questions in his heart that he wanted to ask Fearless, Spring Halo knew that Fearless this brat was extremely crafty and always liked to act mysterious. He definitely had a reason for his confidence and if even Fearless’ plan doesn’t work, no one else’s will. Thus, they could only choose to trust their leader and follow his intentions.

With a flash of light, both squads were sent onto the arena stage.

Upon seeing Boundless Ocean and his team entering into their formation at the peak of the mountain, Spring Halo involuntarily sighed and said, “Fearless, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us how are we supposed to attack out way up.”

“Hehe!”

Fearless said, “The reason why Ma Su was trapped to his death in the past, apart from the lack of resources in the battle of attrition, the most important factor was because they didn’t have a route to escape! The key to how we will attack our way up depends on this pathway up to the mountain!”
