The second round of the competition concluded as Li Ruoshu uttered those words.
The Night Owl Squad was once again the last team standing, securing the championship score for the second match.
The kill score also belonged to Night Owl.
Yu Ye once again claimed the individual score with his unparalleled personal strength.
Currently, on the scoreboard,
the Night Owl Squad topped the list with 51 points.
The Black Horse Squad followed closely with 37 points.
Below them were Red Flame, Ghost Shadow, and so on.
However, thankfully, the Tidal Squad was not at the bottom. Even with two instant kills, they still ranked 19th.
This was thanks to Li Shenyu's outstanding performance in the second match.
Although it wasn't recorded on the big screen, this battle record was indelible.
It hung on the total score ranking, incredibly glaring in the eyes of several high-ranking officials in Baiye City.
Ma Lingzhi immediately sent a system communication to his Tide Town Leaders below him.
He said angrily, “What exactly are you doing? Forty people surrounding four, and you still get counter-killed?”
“It's one or two deaths, but eight or nine? You let them counter-kill eight or nine people at once. I played better than you when I was young.”
“This is only the second match, and the opponent has already gotten such a score. If it happens again, how can we suppress them? How can you even say you are elites chosen from hundreds of thousands of people? Is this how elites perform?”
Ma Lingzhi immediately started a furious rant.
He ranted so much that the Tide Town Leaders below him couldn't even lift their heads.
It was no wonder he was so angry.
This time, Baiye City had completely lost face. The encirclement began at the start of the match. What was it for?
It was to suppress the Tidal Town's score and foil Tidal Town's plan to gain ownership of the competition. As long as Tidal Town's team didn't perform well in this competition, even if they gained ownership of the competition in the end, it wouldn't add any town rating to them.
Suppressing the development of Tidal Town was of utmost importance in Ma Lingzhi's eyes.
But now...
If Tidal Town continued to score like this, then the score would be completely unsuppressable.
Wouldn't their plan be completely ruined?
Ma Lingzhi was still thinking about how to keep Tidal Town at the bottom.
And on Tidal Town's side...
Li Ruoshu and the others were thinking about winning the final championship.
The third match officially began.
During this period,
Tidal Town announced a temporary player change.
This news surprised everyone else in the competition. After all, the resources consumed for training in this competition were enormous, and there were no resources available for others to train.
Therefore...
Their behavior of temporarily replacing players shocked them greatly.
In their opinion, the Dungeon system was very new. Without certain training, it was impossible to unleash true strength.
Replacing players temporarily, wasn't this a surrender?
Everyone agreed that substitute players were definitely not as experienced as main players.
Ma Lingzhi also thought this way. When he heard that Tidal Town was going to change players, he felt a little secretly pleased.
In his opinion, after changing players, their chances of encircling and killing Tidal Town would be even greater.
For this reason...
Ma Lingzhi even specifically added a match rule: once a player was changed, they could not be changed back.
Regarding this match rule,
naturally, no one had any objections. Tidal Town's roster was quickly finalized.
What puzzled the audience was that
the captain had also been replaced, which made them feel even more absurd, especially since they had already witnessed Li Shenyu's strength.
Captain: Li Ruoshu.
Team members: Chen Yuxuan, Qi Maosong, Li Shenyu.
The people of Baiye City were unfamiliar with these individuals and had never heard of them.
However, Chang Wenhao, who was in the Ghost Shadow Squad, felt a strong shock in his heart when he saw this player list.
That memory belonging to Resident Evil also surfaced in his mind.
It's them...
This time, even they came?
Others might not know, but Chang Wenhao was very clear: when it came to firearms and similar weapons, they had not had as much exposure as these three people.
After all...
This was created by the opponent's Lord!
The third match,
also began after the team members were changed.
On the aircraft carrier deck, the sea breeze carried a salty smell.
Li Ruoshu stood at the forefront of the Tidal Squad, her lithe combat uniform making her posture as tall and straight as a pine tree.
On the huge projected map, the flight path cut diagonally across the middle of the island from west to east. Resource-rich P City, School, and R City were all along this flight path.
“Jump!”
Four parachutes with Tidal Town's unique wave logo blossomed at the edge of the aircraft carrier, diving rapidly towards the school area below the flight path.
“Follow up.”
The 10 Baiye City teams had great tacit agreement at this moment. After exchanging glances, they all jumped down.
Night Owl, Black Horse, Red Flame, Ghost Shadow... A cluster of 40 Baiye City Strategy Group parachutes, with even faster speed, surrounded the school area.
“Deep Sea Squad!” Zhang Qinghe's voice immediately followed, “For Tidal, jump with me...”
At this moment,
the sky above the school was incredibly lively.
Even Zhang Qinghe's cursing could be heard echoing.
“You Baiye City scumbags, your grandpas are here!”
The Deep Sea Squad chose the most open and dangerous playground area on the outskirts of the school for a forced landing.
The landing sounds were muffled and urgent.
“Grab guns, grenades! Take whatever you can, create chaos, and buy time for our Tidal brothers!”
The Deep Sea Squad quickly sprang into action.
Zhang Qinghe didn't even have time to pick up equipment. Seeing a Baiye City parachute not far from him, he picked up the frying pan in his hand and rushed over.
“Damn, are you sick...”
It turned out that person was Han Ying, the captain of the Ghost Shadow Squad. Seeing Zhang Qinghe rush over with a frying pan, Han Ying also panicked a little.
Close combat was his weakest point.
But there was no choice. With no way to retreat, he could only grab his frying pan and duel the opponent with frying pan skills.
It was a contest of who could wield the frying pan more skillfully...
On the other side,
a Deep Sea Squad member played even more aggressively. He picked up two grenades, threw one that didn't kill anyone, and then simply held the remaining one in his hand, rushing over to perish together with a Black Horse team member.
An explosion on the edge of the playground sent up smoke and fire.
The Black Horse member's health bar was instantly depleted.
The nearby Deep Sea Squad member quickly finished him off to prevent him from being revived.
【System Announcement: “Deep Sea - XXX” eliminated “Black Horse - XXX.”】
Almost simultaneously, the next announcement appeared.
【System Announcement: “Black Horse - XXX” eliminated “Deep Sea - XXX.”】
Mutual destruction!
The playground area quickly devolved into chaos, attracting a lot of attention.
The Deep Sea Town accomplished its mission in the most extreme way, buying a lot of time for Tidal Town.
Zhang Qinghe was also eventually overwhelmed by the frying pan attacks of the others, one frying pan unable to contend with four, and was ultimately killed.
During this time,
Li Ruoshu and the others had completely taken control of the school and collected enough equipment.
“Bang!”
A crisp gunshot rang out, sounding the horn of counterattack.
It came from Chen Yuxuan on the top of the skybridge.
