court.

Phoebe walked down the high steps of the Vatican step by step in her blood-stained round-toed leather shoes. Tang Erda and Mu Sicheng were kneeling on the ground with burn marks on their bodies. Liu Ji, who was also burning, was covering his abdomen that was shot and trying hard to get up. The ground was full of howling demons and a mess, and it was obvious that they had been through a fierce battle.

"That's really strange." Phoebe raised her hand to the right, slightly spreading her five fingers. She tilted her head and looked at Mu Sicheng, who was kneeling on the ground and trying to stand up again. "Aren't you a thief known for your speed?"

"Under these circumstances, it's normal for you to escape from my clutches and join the main team, right?"

"Why do you have to stay here and fight with us?"

Phoebe turned her eyes and looked at Tang Erda who was pointing his gun at her. She raised her hand and said, "Our time is precious. We don't want to waste it on a new thief."

[System prompt: Player Phoebe uses skill (Skeleton Armor)]

Tang Erda's eyes were cold, he raised his hand and pulled the trigger, the moment the bullet left the gun, layers of skeletons crawled out from the ground and blocked Phoebe's way, like a layer of hard armor. The bullet penetrated through several layers of skeletons and fell to the ground when it was about to hit Phoebe.

Blocked again.

——This should be Phoebe’s defense-enhancing skill mentioned in Wang Shun’s intelligence.

Phoebe has two skills, one to increase defense and the other to increase damage, which makes her perfect for assisting the main attacker. Even a main attacker like Liu Ji, whose skills are not very strong, can almost suppress them after Phoebe's skills are enhanced.

Tang Er gritted his teeth, looked at Phoebe who was hiding behind the skeleton armor, and raised his gun again.

viewing pool.

Wang Shun, who was sitting at the front of the audience, watched the situation on Tang Er's side and secretly clenched his fists. The major teams slightly behind the audience watched the current stalemate and kept discussing. The host's commentary also became much more cautious and no longer had the mocking tone towards the wandering circus at the beginning.

The fact that they were able to force out all the hidden cards that the second-placed King team had hidden for the playoffs last year and still end up in such an unpredictable situation speaks volumes in itself.

——This is a very strong new team.

Killer sequence team party.

Lu Yizhan suddenly appeared from nowhere and patted Liao Ke on the shoulder: "I'm back."

Liao Ke glanced at Lu Yizhan and made room for him: "Is everything settled?"

"Well, I went out to talk to Georgia and I'm working on it." Lu Yizhan said in a steady tone. He looked up at the big screen in the middle of the viewing pool. "What stage has the competition reached?"

"Look." Liao Ke shook his head. "In the current situation, I can't tell what cards the tacticians on both sides have in their hands and what they will do next."

"Really?" Lu Yizhan smiled with a smile on his face. "Even you can't understand. These two girls are really good at fighting."

Liao Ke sighed helplessly and patted Lu Yizhan on the shoulder: "Don't make fun of me for not understanding a game. Analyze it for me quickly, Grand Master of War."

When they heard that the game was going to be analyzed, the other two people, Bai Jiamu and Bai Yi, who had been watching the game with great hatred, came over quietly - they couldn't understand it either!

The Nishen who can be a commentator is finally back!

Spades, on the other hand, was still watching himself, with no expression on his face, and he crossed his arms, looking very clear and indifferent, as if he knew all the tricks played by both sides on the big screen. He was very good at fooling people. Spades was always so quiet when watching the game. If they hadn't become teammates and reviewed the game with this guy after the game, no one would know that Spades was actually just staring at one place and daydreaming while watching the game.

After watching it, if you ask this guy what tactics both sides used, he will only tell you - [I don’t know].

If you ask him what he knows after watching the game, Spade will say: "I know I can beat them."

[Is this enough for the competition? ]

All the team members were speechless at Spade's answer. They had no way to deal with this lizard with a strange way of thinking. It was not until Lu Station arrived that Spade was suppressed by Lu Station's various tricks and honestly participated in the team's game review - although he still would not review seriously, but at least he would attend the review meeting for the sake of courtesy.

"I don't deserve it." Lu Yizhan smiled. He looked at the big screen with a calm expression, and supported his chin with two fingers, thinking, "...both sides have split up the team."

"The nun's intention is very clear. She knows that the weakness of the king's team is that they don't have a strong main attacker, so they want to work together to send away the opponent's main attacker. So she lets Liu Ji burn his health points, and she directly uses her ultimate skill to quickly send Tang Er and the hunter away. Even if Liu Ji dies in the process of burning his health points, the situation becomes controllable."

"After the one-for-one trade, she restrained the little witch who could restore health. The pressure on Qi Yifang, a weak control player, was greatly reduced. He only needed to team up with Titan to hold off the newcomers Mu Ke and Mu Sicheng."

"But this..." Liao Ke frowned and asked, "It can't be said to be a sure win, right? She sold out her team's only main attacker, sacrificed everyone's special skills, and only sent Tang Erda away, but didn't get an advantageous position, and put herself in a passive position."

"That's not a very good tactic."

Lu Yizhan thought for a moment and said, "No, this is a good tactic."

"Why?" Liao Ke asked, "I also think there must be some advantages in this tactic, otherwise we wouldn't have fought like that with Bai Liu and the others, but I can't figure out where it is."

Lu Yizhan answered the question irrelevantly: "Who do you think is the most important person for a team?"

Bai Yi, who was listening intently, quickly raised his hand and answered, "Of course it's the tactician!"

"Well, thank you for praising me, Bai Yi." Lu Yizhan accepted Bai Yi's compliment with a smile, and then continued, "I don't deny the importance and core position of the tactician in the team, but if you ask the tactician of any team who is the most important part of the team, he will most likely not answer you are the tactician."

Bai Yi put down his hand in confusion: "Who is that?"

"He's the ace player." Lu Yizhan explained gently, "Have you forgotten? Last year, there wasn't even a tactician in Spade's team. He won in the end relying only on his own ace."

"For a tactician, the most important thing is the ace player on the field. This player can be a control, shield, main attacker or roaming player, but making good use of this card will definitely have a game-breaking effect."

"But..." Bai Jiamu frowned and asked, "Isn't the King's Guild's trump card this year the nun? She has already used her ultimate skill, but it didn't have much effect."

"No." Lu Yizhan raised his eyes and looked at the big screen, "When the tactician is the heart, the ace is indeed the nun."

"But now the tactician is a nun, and the trump card is the most useful player card in the tactician's hand, so the trump card in the King's Guild should be hearts."

"And Hearts is on the island."

Lu Yizhan turned his gaze back to the others. He asked with a smile, "Do you understand the nun's tactics?"

Bai Yi and Bai Jiamu: "..."

Damn it! I feel like I should understand it! But I don’t! Is there really anyone who can understand it after hearing this sentence?

Liao Ke nodded suddenly. He clapped his hands and said, "So that's how it is! I understand!"

Bai Yi: “…”

Bai Jiamu: “…”

You smart people don't need to explain everything to the end, right? Explain it to me to the end!

For some strange reason, Bai Yi didn't want to ask Lu Yizhan why. Of course, it wasn't because he didn't want to expose his own stupid shame! He just didn't want to ask again!

So, with some kind of evil thought in mind, Bai Yi nudged Hei Tao, who seemed to be watching the game but was definitely distracted, with his elbow: "Hey! Hei Tao, did you understand? You definitely didn't even listen, you definitely didn't understand!"

If you don't understand, please ask Nishen for us! Thank you!

This kind of desire was in the eyes of Bai Yi and Bai Jiamu when they looked at Hei Tao.

Heitao glanced at the two teammates indifferently and said, "I understand."

"I told you, you definitely didn't understand. Nishen, please explain it more carefully..." Bai Yi paused in the middle of his sentence. He turned his head in disbelief and looked over there. His voice broke, "What did you say!!"

Bai Jiamu couldn't hide his surprise on his face. Even Liao Ke was a little surprised - not only was he surprised that Hei Tao would say that he understood such words, but he was also surprised that Hei Tao would really listen carefully to Lu Yizhan's analysis of the game!

This guy was always dozing off on the league field before!

This time, no one knew where he came from. After returning to the team, he lay face down all night. The whole lizard looked particularly depressed. He refused to tell him why he was depressed. Liao Ke even gave Hei Tao a mental diagnosis, but he only found out that the reason for Hei Tao's depression was that he was not allowed to stay at home alone and had to return to his own team. He was only a little more positive when he came to watch the challenge match today.

Everyone thought that Spades would sleep through this challenge, but he remained expressionless until now. To be honest, Liao Ke felt that Spades had already given these two teams a lot of face.

"You said you understood..." Bai Jiamu could hardly hide the subtle expression on his face, "Then you, explain it to us?"

Spade only glanced at Bai Yi when he poked him, and quickly turned his eyes back to the big screen, explaining in a neither fast nor slow voice: "Hearts stay on the island, and the nun uses a trick to delay others from going to the island, which will leave enough free time for the ace Hearts. The nun believes in her ace player, the Queen of Hearts. She thinks that Hearts will definitely escape from the prison on the island, so she is squeezing out time for him."

"The Heart is the player closest to the mission completion location. As long as they drag the Heart to a point where it can move, the advantage will easily return to them."

"This is the ultimate purpose of her tactics."

"That's right." Lu Yizhan nodded with a smile.

Bai Yi was stunned and turned to look at Bai Jiamu in a daze: "Did I hear it correctly? Hei Tao actually understood it."

"...Did he actually watch the game seriously today?!" This was what Bai Jiamu couldn't understand even more.

Isn't this lizard always reckless when playing games? Is he the kind of force-based player who even skips NPC dialogues? Why is it that he suddenly seems to have discovered something and is actually seriously analyzing the tactics of other teams?

And the analysis is so thorough!

"Why do you look so surprised?" Lu Yizhan smiled and spread his hands. "I've said before that Spade is not ignorant of these things. He's just used to a more direct approach, so he doesn't want to understand humans' circuitous tactics."

Bai Yi was still confused: "Then why...are you suddenly willing to understand?"

Lu Yizhan looked at Hei Tao's profile, who was staring at the big screen without missing a beat. He smiled, looked away, and said with a sigh, "Maybe he wants to understand a certain human who likes to express himself with these convoluted tactics."
