Chapter 622 Gods' Game: Blocks and Me 8
Five seconds later, the invisibility and blurring effect that Yu Xunge had borrowed had not yet ended, but the 19th round of the game had already begun.
She wasn't in the treasure chest this round, but she wasn't in a hurry to remove her skill.
Tulan has already gone to hunt for treasure chests.
In the first few rounds of the game, she couldn't grab any treasure chests at all, but Yu Xunge gave her an idea: to transform into the size of a space pirate ship and jump onto the ship while lying down. As long as the treasure chest didn't leave the ship or become ethereal, she could eventually grab it after a few tries.
Furthermore, since crew members attacking each other is ineffective, this tactic also eliminates the risk of being targeted by a united crew.
So after these 18 rounds, Tulan got quite a few blocks, conservatively estimated at 20.
Just as Yu Xunge was about to fly over and open the treasure chest, he suddenly looked up at the sky—the moon had risen in this world.
It was an "L"-shaped moon, but when Yu Xunge looked at it, it turned into a square, just like a building block that kept deforming.
While gripping the seat to steady himself, Yu Xunge used [Who Will Cut the Moonlight] on the blocky moon.
She can only cut during gameplay, since players cannot use skills outside of the game area.
Although it hasn't been a month since she last cut the moonlight at the Mischief Restaurant, she did so before using the [Phoenix] skill.
[Phoenix] not only refreshed the cooldown time of her combat skills, but also refreshed this skill whose cooldown time was not specified but did have an invisible cooldown time.
Yu Xunge, with her right eye still throbbing with pain, ran towards the top of the stern. The ship was already tilted at 90 degrees. She planned to use the [Romantic Tourist] skill to mark a sightseeing teleportation point when the stern reached its highest point, just in case.
Now her pain tolerance is many times higher than before. Every combat course she takes includes training on how to maintain combat effectiveness when facing severe pain, whether in close combat or ranged combat.
When the boat reached its highest point, Yu Xunge stood at the bow and looked down at the amusement park. Since no one knew how to play those rides, he could only choose the vending machines.
After designating a vending machine as a tourist attraction, Yu Xunge changed direction and went to find the treasure chest.
However, this round was far from smooth.
Just as the two space pirate ships were passing each other, the player with the 19th round of treasure chests jumped between them and used a skill. An ice magic aura spread out and rapidly expanded upon contact with the ship's hull.
At this rate of spread, it would probably take less than 3 seconds for the two space pirate ships to be encased in a thick layer of ice.
Every player who touched the ice was grabbed by an ice claw that extended from the ice surface and thrown into the air.
The ice ship was still rocking, and players with a keen sense of combat, like Yu Xunge, almost immediately realized the treasure chest player's plan.
The player with the treasure chest must separate the players from the spaceship. She must force all players to "leave" the spaceship for 3 seconds. If they cannot reach the ship within 3 seconds, all players who violate the rules will be teleported to the middle of the ship to receive a 5-second immobilization penalty.
This 5-second stun not only allows the player holding the treasure chest to escape the danger of being attacked by multiple enemies, but also enables them to turn the tables and eliminate the crew members.
what to do? !
Using Teletubbies? No use.
Even if she is ignored, it doesn't mean she doesn't exist. Once she's gathered and immobilized, the players in the treasure chest just need to keep casting skills; it doesn't matter whether they can see her or not.
Yu Xunge stood at the stern of the boat, the ice floes moving toward her like serpents.
She looked at Tulan on another ship, where the blocky ice dragon was staring at the ice.
Tulan may have already sensed something was wrong, but the time from when the player in the treasure chest jumped into the middle of the spaceship and used their skill to when the ice started to spread was too fast and too short. Tulan might not be able to figure out the player's intentions in such a short time.
From Yu Xunge's perspective, the best way for Tu Lan, as an ice dragon, is to let the tip of its tail merge into the ice layer.
This way, one can stay on the ship while maintaining maneuverability and dodging incoming attacks in time.
That player who opened the treasure chest is the best example; as an ice dragon, Tulan could definitely do it too.
But at this moment, Yu Xunge did not directly tell Tu Lan the answer.
Instead, she mentally told Tulan the problem: "She needs to prevent all players from touching the ship, triggering a game mechanic where players who are away from the ship for more than 3 seconds will be sent back to the ship and immobilized for 5 seconds."
She believed that Tulan could find the answer, and even if she couldn't... it was just a few building blocks, and she could afford the tuition!
While speaking to Tu Lan, Yu Xunge turned and ran, using a skill.
—【The Fog Arrives】!
In an instant, the miniature block figures transformed into a thick fog, which clung tightly to the hull and dissipated towards the bottom of the ship.
She cannot be frozen on the deck, otherwise, when players attack other crew members, the scattered skills will fall onto the frozen fog surface, which will be very dangerous for her.
She has the "family bucket" strategy, and other players can also have their own unique methods.
The thick fog spread downwards, and the ice followed, freezing it inch by inch.
The fog and ice merged together and froze at the junction of the hull and side of the ship.
Yu Xunge knew she had been hit, and the notification sounded in her mind: "You have lost a gray block." But she also knew that she had not left the ship.
She knew that B8017913 had left her, but the loss was acceptable. B8017913 was small, and if it fell into the player group, it might not be able to attack it.
She silently asked Tulan, "Is it resolved?"
Tu Lan: "Hehe, I just merged into the ice layer."
Yu Xunge: "Did your entire body merge into the ice layer? Which ice layer did you merge into?"
Tu Lan: "...the stern"
She paused before giving her answer, her voice sounding somewhat guilty. Clearly, with the attack outside underway, Tulan had already realized the flaw in her choice.
Tulan: "But I flew out quickly, but... I'm sorry, I didn't leave in time and lost a piece..."
Now is not the time for self-reflection.
Yu Xunge began remote command: "We'll talk about that later. Are any treasure chests also frozen in place? If so, go and attack them now! Just make sure the tip of the tail merges into the ice and touches the hull."
Time ticked by, and Yu Xunge couldn't leave the ice rashly, fearing that she wouldn't be able to come back if she left.
Since the players left the ship at different times, the start and end times of the stun also differed. In total, the player had at least 7 seconds to attack the treasure chest.
If the ice layer remains, the first player to be unsealed might be immobilized again if they don't immediately come up with a solution.
This is the time for treasure hunters to reap the rewards, but it's also an opportunity for crew members.
She couldn't direct Tulan's every offensive and defensive move and choice, but she also couldn't just let Tulan play recklessly.
Yu Xunge: "Attack the chest that is immobilized, not the player who released the ice layer."
Yu Xunge: "How to attack, how to choose, it's all up to you."
Yu Xunge: "From now on, I'll be your stopwatch, 1...1.5...2...2.5..."
