Chen Runyu felt as if he had walked along the edge of death.
The ceaseless flow of spiritual power told him that it was Ghost Wood that had taken the damage for him.
Shi Qi had been waiting for an opportunity to attack. Hidden on the flower of the Seven-Star Butterfly, she knew Chen Runyu was in a critical state. Anxious to act, she nevertheless dared not move without a command from Wen Jiang.
It was only after Lamia had inflicted heavy damage on the Seven-Star Butterfly that Shi Qi heard Wen Jiang’s command, "Shi Qi, Lamia!"
In an instant, Clueless Da, whose shadow was not too conspicuous, soared into the air and swiftly thrust towards Lamia.
Lamia, on her guard, cast a quick glance towards Clueless Da. Having just used her ability, she quickly chose to retreat.
As Clueless Da pursued, the dense fog of Demos suddenly changed direction towards her, accurately pinpointing her location.
Shi Qi did not dare to take the control head-on and had to co to an abrupt halt. Wen Jiang also made a decisive call, "Retreat."
Clueless Da chose to fall back, continuing to lie in wait amidst the spreading flowers of the Seven-Star Butterfly.
She glanced unwillingly at the opposing Demos. Their control is so effective! They didn’t even need to use a Strong Control Card like Circe, managing to shift targets with just Demos. Clueless Da is fast, yet they could still predict her movents and control her so precisely. This realization filled Shi Qi with both anger and fear, solidifying her understanding of the world’s top-ranked professional players.
At that mont, she truly felt helpless. We can only rely on Wen Jiang. Our objective is clear: to defend Wen Jiang even at the cost of our lives. If Wen Jiang’s Hou Yi can’t break this stalemate, we’ll inevitably be dragged down to defeat. We have no way to break through this situation ourselves.
For the first ti in a competition, Shi Qi felt like crying because of her own inability.
But she rembered they were still in a match and tried her best to adjust her state of mind. Fortunately, I just need to lie in wait, she reasoned. My emotional fluctuations won’t affect my performance as long as I follow Wen Jiang’s orders.
The opposing team is firmly targeting my Hou Yi, allocating three cards to deal with him. This is indeed a form of high regard for , Wen Jiang thought.
Almost a minute had passed since the match started, and this was the first ti Zero Egg had witnessed such a tense situation. It was also yelling in Wen Jiang’s mind.
Zero Egg shrieked internally, "Jiang Jiang, what should we do? Those bastards from the Temple of the Gods are really tough!"
Wen Jiang curled her lips. "Why the rush? The opportunity is now."
She narrowed her eyes. Three cards, huh? Could there be a mistake?
With a slight flicker of her will, the Dandelion drifted leisurely, once again puffing out several small dandelions that began to fly towards the enemy’s cards.
This tense situation was exhilarating for the comntators.
Cyrus was especially animated. "The Temple of the Gods’ decision is wise! Three cards are dragging down the offensive card, Seven-Star Butterfly, leaving only Hou Yi with any power to counter. With three cards guarding Hou Yi, he can’t move either. What can Mount Flower do? What can Wen Jiang do?"
"The Seven-Star Butterfly won’t last much longer," Lillian said with concern. "The attack from three cards is too intense. The Temple of the Gods’ offense is ferocious, and Mount Flower doesn’t seem to have any life-saving asures left."
The Jade Rabbit Pestle dicine also required cooldowns. An Assassin Card like Oneri, designed for sustained damage, was already troubleso. Now, with support from Ourelitaya, one glance at the Seven-Star Butterfly’s fragile Card Spirit revealed it couldn’t hold on for much longer.
And Chen Runyu kept blooming continuously.
It was precisely because of the Seven-Star Butterfly’s actions that Sirens and Demos, one an offensive card and the other a Control Card, had not rushed forward.
"How can they break this situation?" Cyrus asked with malicious glee. "To be honest, I don’t see any chance for Mount Flower to win. What’s the use of a card that can’t deal damage, even if they manage to seize it?"
The audience watching the live stream was so anxious they were breaking out in a cold sweat.
[Damn, this matchup is making look like an idiot!]
[Wen Jiang controlling three cards with such ease is impressive, but why pick a late-ga card like Dandelion under these circumstances?]
[Clueless Da’s attack was nullified by their control! Goddamn, these Temple of the Gods players are outrageous!]
[I’m losing all hope watching this; there’s no way to break the stalemate. What can Wen Jiang’s Hou Yi do? Any move will be targeted by Eros and Circe!]
[To be honest, if this wasn’t already a seven-versus-nine fight, there’d be no suspense. And Temple of the Gods still has three cards that haven’t moved...]
[Seriously, Seven-Star Butterfly is still blooming flowers even now. Has he gone crazy?]
[Is their commander braindead? In this situation, why aren’t they thinking about saving Seven-Star Butterfly? What are they doing instead?]
[rlinuo isn’t a control card, she’s an offensive one! River Maiden is still holding up, so why not continue to use Skills to save teammates?]
[Clueless Da’s attack failed, but she could still attack rlinuo! Why not attack rlinuo to stop her from continuously targeting River Maiden? What’s the point of Clueless Da just lying in wait?! This is so frustrating, I feel like I’m about to have a stroke!]
This wasn’t just a question from the audience; those watching the match intently were also sweating bullets.
Inside the Guiqing Association, Chen Runyu’s cousin, Chen Yunbai, was cursing as he watched the match. "Why isn’t Control saving Seven-Star Butterfly? He could release Flower Mist right now, which would affect Oneri within range. At least temporarily force Oneri out and give them a chance to breathe, couldn’t he? Are they just relying on Ghost Wood to hold on like this?"
Another person interjected, "But what about rlinuo then? If she changes targets to attack Seven-Star Butterfly, won’t it fall even faster?"
Right now, rlinuo’s role was to temporarily suppress River Maiden.
Chen Yunbai cursed again. "And Clueless Da, what the hell is she doing? She clearly has the best chance to attack rlinuo!"
But instead, she had just chased Lamia, imdiately switching targets when she saw the enemy’s control card make a move.
Chen Yunbai’s teammate, noticing the problem, shrugged and said, "rlinuo’s position is too safe, with Eros and Circe by her side. The surface plan is to watch Hou Yi, but in reality, they’re also keeping an eye on these other cards. If Clueless Da tries to charge rlinuo, it’ll be very difficult."
"But..." soone else mused, "if she made a move, couldn’t she cause so trouble for rlinuo? Maybe their commander has other considerations?"
Another scoffed, "Is their commander braindead or just scared stiff? Why aren’t they doing anything?"
Because there were prior rumors that Ruan Chunen was Mount Flower’s commander, they assud Ruan Chunen was also directing this match.
In reality, inside the arena, everyone on the Mount Flower team was holding their breath, daring not to relax or be careless. Just as Lamia recovered and they braced for another assault, Wen Jiang suddenly made a move.
"Now’s the mont! Dou Yuan, get close to them!"
Dou Yuan, who had been continuously eroded but not yet afflicted by any negative states, wasn’t feeling well. Hearing Wen Jiang’s command, he didn’t hesitate. He imdiately controlled River Maiden to move closer to the opponent’s Card Spirits and released his ability again!
Stunningly beautiful and vibrant flowers blood once more, releasing a potent and intoxicating fragrance. This was accompanied by a flower mist that condensed into a tangible substance, sweeping over most of the arena.
Even Demos and Lamia, who had been preparing for another action, were forced to temporarily retreat from its edge.
The assassin controlling Oneri was taken aback. They’re ignoring ?
The next second, he heard Alva’s intense shout, "Watch out for those Dandelions! The Dandelions!!"
