Chapter 1900 1900: The Bull Catching Plan

As the Holy Apostle completed their map selection, the scene in the arena began to change.

What was initially a lush and dimly lit dark forest instantly transformed into a vast and endless stony desert.

The stony desert was covered with shattered rocks and various bizarre stone formations, aptly named the "Forest of Shattered Stones."

A flash of white light passed, and both teams appeared in the arena, instantly lifting the audience's spirits.

This battle concerned the fate of both teams and was destined to be a battle for reputation.

As the match began, both teams quickly assumed their formations, tension palpable as they readied themselves for action.

When the countdown ended, the match commenced, with the Holy Hall team striking first.

As Fearless had predicted, the first target of the Holy Hall team was none other than the core member of the Crowd of Misfits, Wang Yu.

Rockabye lifted his staff, and with a gesture towards Wang Yu, he unleashed a gravitational spell.

The power of the gravitational spell depended entirely on the number of manipulable objects present in the scene.

In the dark forest, which was full of wood, Rockabye's gravity ability could exert tremendous force, and now, on this stony desert, it was even more effective.

Rockabye, the first commander of the Holy Hall team, was renowned as a world-class tactical master. He understood the principle of attacking the enemy's weakness with his strength, and as the match began, he centered the battle around the final contest, which he had meticulously planned.

Since the main target this time was Wang Yu, the tactical core of this battle was the Bull Catching Plan, and this map was specifically designed to complement that plan.

"Whoosh!"

Under Rockabye's control, countless stones soared into the air, momentarily obscuring the members of the Crowd of Misfits above with a dense cloud of rubble.

"Gather!"

Immediately, Rockabye brought his hands together, and the stones rained down, crashing towards Wang Yu and the other members of the Crowd of Misfits.

The Crowd of Misfits reacted swiftly. As the stones fell, they quickly regrouped into a tight formation. At that moment, Crotch Lord flashed a red light and transformed into a giant over four to five meters tall, his shield also expanding to an enormous size.

He raised his shield, protecting the members of the Crowd of Misfits beneath it.

However, at that instant, the air around the Crowd of Misfits twisted, and two assassins appeared, one on each side, brandishing daggers and launching a swift strike towards Ming Du and Spring Halo's lower backs with their signature move, Instant Hell Kill.

The Instant Hell Kill was a special ultimate move for assassins, characterized by its quick activation and short preparation time.

Unlike other classes' flashy ultimates, the Instant Hell Kill was a single strike, seemingly no different from a backstab, but it dealt the highest damage among all classes' ultimates, representing an explosive burst of damage.

Given that these two assassins could appear in this arena, their output was undoubtedly formidable.

"Watch out, dodge!"

The two assassins' targets were not Wang Yu. By the time Wang Yu sensed their presence, their blades had already pierced through to Ming Du and Spring Halo's backs.

"Thud, thud!"

Everyone only saw two flashes of light; Ming Du and Spring Halo had no time to evade and were each knocked out of the arena by a single strike.

"You bastard!"

The audacity of the two assassins charging in had exceeded the Crowd of Misfits' tolerance.

Ming Du, being a mage, naturally stood closest to those who could protect him. Upon seeing Ming Du killed, the nearby Evil Rampage roared and struck the assassin who had attacked Ming Du on the head, killing him instantly.

The other assassin, seeing this, turned to flee, but Wang Yu leapt up and delivered a thunderous stomp from the sky, crushing that assassin to death.

"Smash!"

But just as Wang Yu crushed the assassin, he suddenly heard a crisp sound beneath him. Looking down, he saw that a trap had been laid at his feet without him realizing it.

"Hmph!"

Seeing this scene, Rockabye revealed a sly smile.

Mages are area damage dealers, while Shamans specialize in area control; these two classes are the most terrifying presence in team battles.

Among the Crowd of Misfits, Rockabye was most troubled by Wang Yu, but in team fights, Wang Yu was not necessarily more impactful than these two classes.

Rockabye knew that Fearless would surely think his target was Wang Yu, so he took the initiative to strike from the side, directly eliminating two core team members of the Crowd of Misfits.

As for the fates of the two assassins, they were of little concern to Rockabye. After all, while assassins excel in duels, they have limited effectiveness in team battles. Being able to take out two core team members from the opponent was already worth it, especially since the second assassin had laid a trap at Wang Yu's feet before dying.

"Jeff!"

With the trap binding Wang Yu for over three seconds, Rockabye commanded Jeff, who was behind him.

Jeff spread his arms and unleashed the Dimension Space Slash towards the ensnared Wang Yu.

"Ha!"

Wang Yu had seen the lethal attributes of the Dimension Space Slash before, so he didn't underestimate it. He shouted loudly, channeling his internal energy, and suddenly exerted force with his feet.

"Smash!"

The trap shattered under his foot, and Wang Yu rolled backward to evade Jeff's attack.

At this moment, the Holy Apostle had already charged to the front lines against the Crowd of Misfits.

Without Spring Halo's crowd control and Ming Du's area damage, the Crowd of Misfits' team-fighting capability indeed diminished significantly. Faced with the oncoming opponents, they could only withstand the assault with their front line.

The Holy Hall team's Warrior, Slaughter, and Guardian, Guardian, held the line against the other members of the Crowd of Misfits with the cover of archers and artillery. The Apostle of the Holy Hall thrust his staff into the ground, releasing a halo of light, and his massive fist, glowing blue, slammed towards Wang Yu, who was still rolling.

Before Wang Yu could get up, the Apostle's gigantic fist had already struck his back.

Wang Yu quickly pushed against the ground with both hands and forcefully kicked backward.

"Bang!"

A loud noise erupted.

Wang Yu's feet collided with the Apostle's fist.

As a paladin, the Apostle had a remarkably high judgment, and even the full power of a Pugilist could not suppress him, let alone Wang Yu.

When fist met foot, the Apostle staggered slightly but remained rooted in place, while Wang Yu pressed down against the ground and propelled himself forward, soaring away from the scene.

"Now's your chance!!"

Seeing Wang Yu flying away from the Crowd of Misfits' formation and creating distance from the others, the Apostle of the Holy Hall immediately shouted in the team channel.

Rockabye, observing this, moved his arms in a sweeping motion.

"!!!"

Wang Yu suddenly felt a heavy pull in mid-air as a tremendous gravitational force ensnared him. Before he could break free, stones from the ground were already flying toward him from all directions.
