< Psychic Wars - All-Star Game (7) >
Episode 208
As with the Korean team, the American team’s preparations for the match proceeded quickly.
The time it took for each individual to pick a psyker was shorter than that of the Korean team.
Unlike the Korean team that went through the final adjustment, the American team did not have to.
If you look at the psyker selection of the ten American All-Star teams gathered in front of the swordsman battle, you can see why.
“It’s a very contrasting scene with the Korean team, isn’t it?”
“That’s right. Unlike the Korean team, which prepared thoroughly and strategically, the American team chose to do what they normally do best.”
“It feels like they brought out their signature picks. Well, at least there are three tanks, but I wonder if they will be able to stop the swords with those people.」
-Is that ‘original test is taken with normal skill’ or something?
-Look at your self-confidence hahahaha
-Will it be three tanks hahahaha
-Spoiler: I can’t block the swords and cut them all.
“Actually, it’s usually a team combination of 10 people, that’s it. But the problem is that the chances of winning this event match with a normal combination are very low.”
Three tanks, five dealers, plus two healers for a total of 10 people.
This was a very traditional 10-person team combination, as Lee Han-soo commented.
Irregular matches played by a team of 10 people—like the All-Star game we are currently playing—were used to this kind of combination.
Because, it was the worst.
Although the numbers were sometimes changed to use an anomalous strategy, the most basic combination is 3 tanks – 5 dealers – 2 healers.
In a way, it was natural for the US team, lacking information, to form such a combination.
“Will it be able to last longer than the Korean team that brought a thoroughly prepared strategy? I think it’s worth watching!”
“How come you don’t think you’re going to clear it?”
“I think I’ve seen something before- haha. I believe the viewers will have the same thoughts as me.”
-Korea lasted 7 minutes, but what’s clear hahahaha
– This is right hahahahahaha
-I’m glad I got past phase 1 lol
– Except for the soup, this is correct;
While the broadcasters joked like that.
After the preparations were made, the American team entered the battlefield.
As with the Korean team, admiring the well-chosen battlefield, they soon arrived at the center of the swordsmanship, where they saw Dohyeon.
Sitting in the seat of the gods, he faced the sword god who was looking down at them.
“Hey, he’s handsome, isn’t he?”
“·········Yes. He was handsome.”
Feeling intimidated by the gaze of God looking down on them, Arta laughed and joked.
Her usual reaction relieved the pressure that was weighing on the American team.
The American team players, who were momentarily overwhelmed by the swordsman battle and the admirable visuals of their owners, coughed and prepared for the battle.
looking down on them
Dohyun raised his hand as if to confide in him.
As if ten eyes were clinging to each other, they gathered with his raised hands.
White and long fingers are perfect! bouncing out loud
make it a signal.
The sword statues placed around the throne awoke with the light and flew up.
Twenty swords wrapped in soft gold flew around Dohyun and floated.
“Twenty swords floating around the sword god! Looking at it again, it’s overwhelming.”
“If you just think about the numbers, it’s twice as many as the sword dancers wrote Sword Rise. Needless to say, the power of the swords is also strong.」
“It is true, however, that as the number increases, the difficulty of control also increases. To be honest, I don’t have the confidence to control 20 swords.」
– How do you control the real 20 bags??
– Big or not
– It’s strange lol
-I don’t know if it’s Tau, the king of China. Let’s use it well so that he can also become a sword dancer.
“Isn’t that why you were invited to the event match? Ah, the American team reacts right away!”
“All spread! Don’t be in the same field of view!”
As soon as he saw the twenty swords flying away, Arta quickly shouted.
According to her order, the American team players gathered in one place smashed the ground and scattered all over the place—of course, in the meantime, the healer and the tank moved together.
This was a basic countermeasure against a psyker with the ability to control external objects, including sword dancers.
For the average person, it is not easy to cope with what is happening in two places at once.
Wouldn’t it be easier to attack the enemy with the sword you control and at the same time block the attacks that were coming towards you?
‘If twenty swords-‘
What if there were twenty swords to control?
Plus, what if you had ten enemies to deal with?
It is possible to spread the battlefield to ten places simply by spreading it out.
A normal person would have given up on fighting altogether!
In any case, if you were a normal person.
Twenty swords swam freely in the air, chasing the scattered enemies.
Two bags per person!
You want to spread the fighting area over ten?
try it somewhere
I will accept anything!
It looked like it was screaming.
“I think this is Arta’s mistake, right?”
“I think he was trying to take advantage of Kratos’ multitasking ability by dividing the battlefield into ten… I don’t think it was an easy decision.”
“That’s right! It was Kratos who moved his sword to annihilate the back line while being attacked by Khan and Brad, right? I never lack the ability to multitask!”
As the broadcasters said, this was Arta’s mistake.
It’s also a fatal mistake.
Do-hyeon’s cognitive ability was something that far exceeded that of humans.
Especially when it comes to controlling a sword like now.
The exposed golden eyes sink so deeply that it is impossible to tell what they are looking at.
‘–‘
early.
Do-hyeon had once put everything in the three worlds around him under his own acknowledgment.
That was when I first fought the sword castle in ‘Samurai Hearts’.
At that time, he had every muscle and even a single hair under his control.
In addition, I was able to see and feel everything around me.
And now he was in a state where his skills were several times more advanced than at the time.
“Hey, damn it!”
“Help, ooh! Help!”
“No one has a hand left, oops!”
It is said that there is no such thing as a win for the American team that has been spread out.
Less than 20 seconds after the battle started, the sound of pain erupted from all sides.
That there were two swords attached to each person.
In other words, it is no different from the fact that one Do-Hyun per player is directly fighting.
The sword god who has no one to dare to fight against if he raises a sword.
How terrible it was, you could tell by looking at Khan’s expression as he went to another waiting room after the game was over.
Khan, who had a disgusted expression on his face as if he had seen something terrible, trembled and said.
“Hey. If we were like that, we wouldn’t have been able to even get past the first phase? I don’t know if we could last three minutes.”
“The problem is that it doesn’t end there.”
Brad, who was next to him, shrugged.
He was also watching an American team game with Khan.
“If one of them falls, it will crumble down. Like dominoes. I can’t even block two, but when there are four, I’ve done everything.”
“Yeah. Uh, I’m going to die now!”
“Arkan player! This is a very dangerous situation right now! I am enduring it somehow!”
“Is there anyone who can help?!”
“No! I’m too busy to live on my own!”
The first victims came not long after.
Arkan, who is considered the most physically lacking among the American All-Star team, was egged by two swords.
It was only less than a minute before the start of the battle.
Even so, he was able to stand up to that level because he was an All-Star level pro, and if it wasn’t for him, he would have suffered immediately.
However, the situation is in contrast to the Korean team, which survived without a single person dying for 5 minutes!
“I can’t last even 5 minutes, let alone 7 minutes like this!”
Cynthia, who drew her sword, shouted like a scream.
It was definitely what she said.
The gaps created by the death of one person will grow one after the other, and at the end there will be only annihilation.
‘Would it have been different if we had come together?’
Cynthia suddenly thought so, but then shook her head to shake it off.
Considering the current situation, even if we got together, nothing would have changed.
There were only three tanks that could withstand the onslaught of the swords, so there was a good chance that they would have been annihilated faster than when fighting in an open battle.
“Big!”
In the meantime, a second victim occurred.
It was the player who had two swords attached to me after killing Alcan.
Chris, who was barely holding on even with two sacks, was decapitated not long after reaching four sacks, which was twice the size.
“Damn it, Chris!”
“It will be annihilated at this rate! How!”
“The US team is in crisis! It’s a fork in the road between dying like this or trying something!”
“Actually, I was still very late to respond!”
– It’s only been a minute since the battle started??
-It’s already too late.
– No, hahahaha
-The 7-minute record of the Korean team suddenly looks great;
“Actually, considering what the American league and American All-Star teams have shown last year, there is only one way to come out now.”
“what is that?”
‘What do we do?’
While blocking the bulging swords with four swords, Arta, the captain of the American team, was troubled.
To be honest, she felt defeated.
The fear that the opponent’s power remains the same, but this one unilaterally continues to decrease.
Come to think of it, the opponent had not even risen from the throne at all.
It means full of energy.
‘How did the Korean team last for 7 minutes?’
A question like that popped up in my mind.
The players of the US All-Star team were usually banished in the professional league, so they were overwhelmed even though they picked a signature pick that they couldn’t use!
In less than two minutes, if this was the case, how did you survive for seven minutes against an enemy who could even hear the cry of annihilation?
‘Did you put up seven tanks?’
Arta got the right answer without knowing it, but she didn’t know that it was the right answer.
But think about it for a while.
Soon she clenched her teeth.
‘Even if I run away, I won’t last long anyway. I can’t show my fans that unsightly side! Then I’d rather!’
“power!”
Arta’s loud cry echoed across the battlefield.
She roared fiercely as she slashed the swords that were aimed at her with all her might.
With the strong energy characteristic of ‘Striker’ wrapped around him.
Kwaang between clashed fists! a sound rang out.
“Eat even one shot! Help me!”
move forward rather than retreat.
Rather than enduring forcibly, a splendid end.
That was Arta’s style, and at the same time it was the personality of the American league.
Upon hearing her roar, the faces of the American team players were filled with a deep sense of war.
“I knew it! Rather than sticking around like crazy, I decided to rush in splendidly. That’s the nature of the American league! That’s the US All-Star team too!”
“You chose to do something rather than dry up!”
“I’d rather have this. You must try something! Admiral Yi Sun-sin also said it! If you want to die, you will live; if you want to live, you will die! Now may be the time!”
-Record Immediate Live Immediate Copy!
-Yeah, if you want to die, you die.
-I’m sorry, but the opponent is bad.
-Sorry, but that only applies to Koreans;
All of the US All-Star team, including Arta, rushed towards Dohyun.
Of course, it wasn’t Dohyun who would sit still.
Twenty swords mercilessly pierced through the gaps exposed by the opponent’s overwork.
The American players who had been holding on to their swords while relentlessly holding on to their swords, thus paving the way for Arta, collapse one by one.
The road opened to death!
Arta ran down that road without hesitation.
While her whole body was creaking and screaming, Arta never looked back.
I don’t care if someone dies, I just run.
Only to give the god a shot on that high stairway.
Because those who sacrificed it would want it!
“Come on, Captain! Don’t stop!”
– Ah, ah…
-I lifted the veil and peered into the future, but there was only–
-It’s really miserable ㅜㅜ I know the result ㅜㅜㅜㅜ
-2 phase, in the near future
Even Cynthia, who protected Arta’s back until the end, collapses.
And finally, Arta arrived in front of Dohyeon.
In her hand, who passed all the swords blocking her with a ‘ship storm’, there was a ‘horn bomb’ with tremendous power.
A blow created by smashing down swords and stacking up ‘Three Honmu’!
“Eat it-!”
A golden light spreads out in all directions with the sound of an explosion.
At the same time, the interior of the Swordsinjeon was brightly colored with the three colors that came out of the explosion.
