Chapter 1906 1906: <> Is Not a One-Person Game
As the Holy Apostle dove in for an attack, his impact was not weak. Taking advantage of the Apostle's momentum, Wang Yu leaned back, freeing himself from the Guardian's control.
"Clang, clang, clang, clang!"
Arrows struck the air and landed on the Guardian's shield.
But at that moment, Rockabye also raised his staff towards Wang Yu.
As the commander of the Holy Hall team, Rockabye's gaze was sharp and unforgiving; he would not allow Wang Yu to escape his control. Seeing Wang Yu lean back, Rockabye immediately cast a gravitational spell on him mid-air.
Before Wang Yu could land, he was bound in mid-air by Rockabye's spell.
Seeing this, the Holy Apostle and the Guardian rushed forward and grabbed the already captured Wang Yu.
"Poof!"
Witnessing this scene, the audience collectively spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Is this really a battle between experts? How can it be so shameless, just like street thugs, even involving hugging?
The True Alliance members were also dumbfounded.
"Could it be that the Holy Hall team is really this shameless?"
"Unbelievable, unbelievable! I didn't expect them to be so ungentlemanly."
Sticking to the opponent, commonly known as a desperate tactic...
In the early stages of the game, players might instinctively resort to such tactics when they first start playing a holographic simulation game. However, now that everyone's average level was above sixty, and all professions had perfected their skills, players had gained insights into various combat techniques, and such early-stage fighting methods were looked down upon.
After all, in the eyes of the vast majority of players, only desperate beginners would act this way. It was truly surprising that a top-tier team like the Holy Hall resorted to such underhanded tactics in an S-class top professional league.
This was essentially akin to throwing a tantrum at the Olympics...
"Is this guy that hard to deal with?"
Compared to the mockery and disdain of ordinary people, professional experts remained much calmer; different levels lead to different perspectives.
To deal with a mere Pugilist, the Holy Hall team first used a continuous control combo and then resorted to such a desperate tactic, which clearly showed that the Holy Hall members were not as composed as they seemed.
Mentality determines victory or defeat; what kind of formidable person could force a seasoned top-tier expert team into such a situation?
...
Although the Holy Hall team's tactics were indeed underhanded and unappealing, they were still effective against Wang Yu.
Having already been bound, with only his hands and feet able to move, Wang Yu was truly captured when the two Holy Hall members held him tightly.
In fact, the Holy Hall team also valued their dignity, as face was still important. However, there was no other option—once Rockabye's gravitational spell faced resistance, his mana would automatically increase its output. If they did not hold onto Wang Yu, given his fierce spirit, a few struggles would deplete Rockabye's mana.
Although the wind-thunder motion effect on Wang Yu had disappeared, the fiery steps effect remained, and his strength was formidable.
After being embraced by the two, Wang Yu instinctively began to struggle fiercely. Even though the Holy Apostle and the Guardian were heavyweight tank professions, they were still shaken by Wang Yu's powerful force. However, this level of struggle was still bearable for Rockabye's mana supply.
Rockabye could endure it, but the two Holy Hall members were not so lucky.
As Wang Yu struggled, it felt as if their arms were about to be pulled off. Even if they couldn't feel pain, the sensation of being pulled was unbearable.
Moments later, the Holy Apostle turned red in the face and shouted, "Jeff, hurry! We can't hold on much longer!"
To catch Wang Yu, the Holy Apostle was willing to give up even the dignity they valued most. If Wang Yu managed to break free, it would be a complete loss of face.
"Alright! You guys get back!"
At that moment, Jeff, who had been silent, spread his arms, and a massive space rift appeared above Wang Yu's head.
Then, as Jeff's arms fell, the rift began to envelop the three of them.
Seeing this, the Holy Apostle and the Guardian hurriedly released Wang Yu and moved aside, while Wang Yu, under Rockabye's control, had no way to dodge.
With the situation crystallized, everyone on the Holy Hall team let out a collective sigh of relief.
The Holy Apostle gave Wang Yu a thumbs-up and sincerely admired, "Goodbye, expert! 'Rebirth' is not a one-person game!"
As he spoke, Jeff brought his arms together, causing the space rift to shrink rapidly.
Everyone on and off the stage fixated on the trapped Wang Yu, their minds racing.
A single person taking on seven top experts and still managing to gain the upper hand, even forcing the opponent to resort to underhanded tactics to trap him—it was truly lamentable for such a master to meet his end here.
If only he had a good team of teammates, if only they could help him... the outcome of this battle would have been unpredictable.
The world's number one expert might not be the champion, but his strength was firmly etched in everyone's hearts.
Even if the Holy Hall team took home the championship, Wang Yu would undoubtedly be the uncrowned king in everyone's eyes.
However, just when everyone thought Wang Yu was doomed, suddenly a hand reached out from beneath Rockabye's feet, grabbing his ankle.
Rockabye felt a sudden weight beneath him as he was pulled into the ground.
"Poof!"
At the same time, a cold gleam flashed, and a black dagger pierced through Rockabye's head.
Shamans are not particularly resilient professions; a single critical hit to a vital area resulted in Rockabye's instant demise.
By the time Rockabye reacted, he found himself outside the arena, where he saw a black figure quickly disappearing and sprinting away from the battlefield without looking back.
"What... what is this?"
With a successful strike, the figure made a swift retreat. Everyone in the arena was stunned by the sudden appearance of the black hand.
Darknorth Fisher! The guy who vanished the moment he stepped onto the stage.
Darknorth Fisher naturally had a stealthy quality and had little presence even within the Crowd of Misfits team, becoming even more inconspicuous on the battlefield.
Before the match began, Fearless had instructed Darknorth Fisher that in this competition, he had two tasks: first, to hide and not die; second, to take advantage of the situation and eliminate Rockabye.
Rockabye was the commander of the Holy Hall team and the main control figure, but his skills were quite grotesque, making it nearly impossible for ordinary people to get close. The only time to strike was when he was least vigilant.
Initially hiding, Darknorth Fisher was overlooked by everyone, including Rockabye.
At that moment, all of Rockabye's attention was on Wang Yu, and he naturally did not consider the assassin beneath him. Moreover, with Wang Yu on the verge of death and the enemy about to be eliminated, it was precisely when the Holy Hall team's vigilance was at its lowest.
Darknorth Fisher decisively struck, killing Rockabye with a single blow.
"Hehe!"
Seeing Darknorth Fisher succeed, Wang Yu smiled slightly and said, "That's right, 'Rebirth' has never been a one-person game."
