Chapter 243: Chapter 241: Unorthodox Way of Advancing
Translator: 549690339
Shuihua successfully pulled Lance out of the danger zone.
Because at the beginning, players were rushing into the inner circle, and coupled with the change in the way the circle was shrinking, its area was reduced by a quarter again, which resulted in a high density of players in the inner circle now.
The team that ambushed them didnât come over for the two kills.
This gave Shuihua and Lance critical breathing time.
Lance looked at Shuihua with gratitude, but she didnât seem to care as she shook her shot arm to see if the negative status of not being able to exert force was greatly affected.
âThank you,â Lance expressed his gratitude.
But Shuihua skipped over the meaningless small talk and asked directly, âAre you out of danger?â
âProbably not far enough, not yet.â
âThen what are you waiting for?â Shuihua puzzled.
âWhat do you mean?â Lance was even more confused.
âRevive your teammates!â Shuihua scolded in frustration, âWhere are your teammates?!â
She didnât believe that Lanceâs teammates were all wiped out; they were a team of professional players! If they hadnât been ambushed, it wouldnât be so easy to die, right?
After Lance revived his teammates, Shuihua decided to leave: âIâm leaving, I wonât bother you at work anymore.â
âAlso, no shooting me in the back!â
âWait!â Lance hurriedly stopped her, âWhy donât you join us?â
âHuh?â It was Shuihuaâs turn to be at a loss, âIs that possible?â
âIt should be.â Lance explained to Shuihua, âCloud Dreamâs competition rules donât forbid players from different teams to cooperate.â
âWouldnât that meanâŠâ Shuihua immediately used the example, âIf you have strong communication skills, you can form an alliance with 10 teams, creating a brigade that sweeps the battlefield and monopolizes the top 10?â
âUh, this⊠probably wonât work, right?â Lance was unsure too.
Intuitively, he felt that such an outrageous thing was certainly impossible.
Yet, based on the rules alone, Cloud Dream indeed didnât forbid it; theoretically, there was a possibility for it to happenâŠ
Lance convinced Shuihua to join their team, and relying on his teammatesâ covering fire, they left the dangerous area.
They didnât think of avenging their fallen teammates, for the same reason â it was too dangerous. Who knew if there were several more ambushers lurking in the corner, waiting to catch them off guard.
It just wasnât worth it.
So by fate, Shuihua clung to the thighs of professional players.
The audience watching the live stream was completely baffled. Whatâs going on? Did they miss some special event happening?
How did these two turn from enemies to friends?
Especially that female player, who had just been eager to kill Lance. How did she suddenly start risking her life to save someone?
And hey, your teammates were all killed by your opponents. Arenât you at all angry? You just joined the âenemyâ team like that??
Donât you feel guilty?!
Of course, Shuihuaâs conscience wasnât hurting. She used the etiquette reserved for outsiders, politely greeting Lanceâs teammates and expressing her gratitude.
She didnât forget to stress repeatedly: If there are any special circumstances, please donât worry about my safety. Iâm just here to play games; I donât have any attachment to qualifying.
âDonât let me affect your performance.â
Actually, Lanceâs teammates, who had been training with him all the time, were already aware of Shuihua. It was only the substitutes and second team members who needed to get to know her anew.
Shuihua joined Lanceâs teammates in the latter half of the competition.
At the same time, inspired players had already begun to take action.
Still on the veteran player forum âWhirlpool,â one hot post after another appeared as players posted the specific time slots of their participation in the competition, calling for friends to form a âGrand Allianceâ in advance.
After all, the idea Shuihua described of âforming a brigade, sweeping the whole battlefieldâ was truly tempting!
Some players even started a thread aiming not to qualify but to form the largest-scale army and experience the thrill of steamrolling. As long as they had fun, it didnât matter if they qualified in the end!
It couldnât be random, right?
Or would there be extra games?
Some players were very confident in their strength and had already begun to plan for the final day after the preliminary selection.
They were trying to communicate with some experts they knew, expressing their intentions to cooperate in advance.
On the final day, if they were grouped together, they would cooperate to compete for the final ranking.
In fact, before this, some eSports club managers were already doing this sort of thing.
In short, the casual conversation between Lance and Shuihua completely inspired the players to start exploring more and more complex gameplay!
And these gameplays were actually what Lincoln had expected the players to come up with when he first designed the event.
Otherwise, there was no need to put so many players in one map.
If it was just a small team melee, there wouldnât be any essential difference between having 1000 or 10000 players on the map.
As players began scheming both inside and outside the game, the exciting plot was just about to start for Lincoln!
He had even prepared a special surprise for the players on the final day!
The collapse sequence of the earth later on was exactly as Super Tomato predicted: it collapsed in segments clockwise.
Super Tomatoâs team, taking advantage of their early start, managed to secure a prime location despite losing two people during the first circle shrink, thanks to their ample supply of weapons and ammunition.
Afterwards, they executed a perfect trench warfare strategy, successively repelling 15 waves of enemy attacks and surviving until the end.
However, they started to realize that the tactical advantage of âtrench warfareâ was coming to an end as teams began throwing Molotov cocktails at them, making it increasingly difficult to hold on to their position.
This made Super Tomato realize that the subsequent players who participated in the competition were likely to have Molotov cocktails with them while assaulting the inner circle.
If there were still players emulating their trench warfare strategy, they would probably have a miserable end.
âBut itâs none of my business now.â Super Tomato thought unscrupulously,
âAnyway, we have already advanced.â
The esports club team that Lance belonged to also successfully qualified due to their strong ability.
Shuihua, under the protection of a bunch of professional players, basically did nothing and qualified.
Well⊠it couldnât be said that she did nothing. After each battle, Shuihua would clap applaudingly to celebrate and exclaim how amazing they were, providing considerable emotional value for everyone.
When it was confirmed that they had advanced, her teammates were so excited that they almost wanted to shout for their mothersâŠ
They never thought they could qualify like this!
What a great stroke of luck! They were going to buy lottery tickets as soon as they logged out!
The audience felt the same way, having never seen such an absurd way to
qualify!
