1025 THE SEVENTH MATCH
IT'S Monday, another start of the week. It's also another round of fighting for the participant of Arcadia Cup. Of course, it was no different for Team Yunyue. Today was their scheduled seventh match. It's an afternoon match, so everyone came at the headquarters just after lunch.
Shen Ji Yun felt very relaxed. Not because he's overly confident that they would win this match, but rather because the afterglow of his birthday still resonated with him despite two days passing by. It's like the happiness he felt carried over the weekend, and until now, he still felt like he's floating on cloud nine. Showing just how happy he was.
He glanced at Luo Yan. Just looking at him could make his heart flutter. He remembered all the things the other did for him for his birthday and he was immediately filled with happiness. Especially when he thought of the watch Luo Yan gave him. Because it's like a mark that he belonged to Luo Yan.
If he could, he truly wanted to carry over the watch to the game. So, he could look at it whenever he wanted. But that's impossible since no matter how realistic this game was, it's still not reality. Although he could probably ask someone to make an accessory that looked exactly like it.
Should he ask Yu Jiao? With her skills, it would probably be easy to do it.
Speaking of gifts, the gift that his uncle and Brother Zhao gave him was also extraordinary. Of course, not on the same level as Luo Yan's gift. But rather, it was something that Luo Yan would probably appreciate more. He had a feeling that that's the reason why the two gave it to him.
"Do you think we will finally face team Sanguis today?"
Luo Jin's voice cut off Shen Ji Yun's current thoughts. He looked at his teammates. They seemed to be discussing who their opponent would be in this coming match.
"Well, there's only three teams left that we have yet to face, so we have 33.33% chance of facing them," Bai Ze said.
"Brother Ze bringing in the numbers," Luo Yan said in a teasing voice.
"The big lion is acting smart!" Eclipse followed, pointing at Bai Ze as if the other had done something not in character of him.
"Hey, what acting? I am smart," Bai Ze said, raising his chin a bit.
Su Yuqi scoffed at that, as if Bai Ze had just said something funny. Before the other could retort back at her reaction, she said, "If we faced team Sanguis today, can you leave that annoying vampire to me?"
"Me too. I want to beat that vampire up!" Luo Jin followed up, raising his hand like some elementary school child. With his gnome avatar, he definitely looked like one.
"You know that's not how things work," Shen Ji Yun said, toning down his happiness a bit, so he could properly act like the team captain. "We already have a strategy for team Sanguis. Remember that we should take into account not only team Sanguis' captain but also his team members."
Aside from Alucard, which was obviously the focal point of the team, the other main members of team Sanguis were also players that could not be ignored.
The vice-captain, Lilith, was a Bard and known to be a great debuffer. Which was also affected by her race, Succubus. She weakened her enemies, charm them briefly, and provide strengthening or protective spells to allies.
The wolf beastkin, Sylvan, was a pretty competent Berserker. Although he's a bit new compared to the others, he meshed well with the team. Abyss, the Basilisk, was a Mage specialized in petrification and curse magic. He's an annoying enemy, especially if he had the proper support. The last one was the Harpy, Skywing. An incredible Archer that had a huge range because of her flight ability.
Of course, Alucard should not be forgotten. A vampire assassin that had abilities that focused on quick strikes, life-stealing, and evading detection. And he's not just a run-of-the-mill Assassin. He had the strength, the agility, and also the brain to back it up.
In short, the whole team Sanguis could be a very annoying opponent. Especially if they were faced without any plan.
Su Yuqi clicked her tongue. She understood the situation, so she didn't further insist on doing things the way she wanted to. Luo Jin also showed a disappointed look. Their strong desire to beat up Alucard was undeniable.
"It's not only team Sanguis, we should also consider the environment we'll be sent to and the type of game we'll be playing," Shen Ji Yun added.
"I think as long it's not an underwater setting, we'll get by," Luo Yan said.
"Yan, don't you think you just jinxed us?" Luo Jin said with a raised brow.
"Hey, gnome little brother, Master is not a jinx," Eclipse quickly said indignantly. "If Master turned out to be right, then it's because of his amazing foresight."
Luo Yan chuckled hearing that, while Luo Jin only rolled his eyes.
"It's time," Shen Ji Yun said after looking at the time. "Let's go."
----------
When team Yunyue opened their eyes, they were first greeted by an expansive and stark white landscape stretched out in every direction. The terrain before them appeared vast and pristine, dominated by a thick layer of snow and ice. Towering glaciers loomed in the distance, their icy facets reflecting the pale sunlight. The ground beneath their feet felt frozen and solid, and the air was crisp and bone-chillingly cold.
"Well, at least we're not underwater," Luo Jin commented.
Yes, they were in some kind of glacial tundra instead. Which was slightly better than underwater.
Soon, virtual screens appeared one after another in front of them.
[Yunyue vs Sanguis]
When that first announcement appeared, both Su Yuqi and Luo Jin showed an almost feral smile. Which didn't really suit their cute avatars.
[Glacial Siege!]
[Objective: One team defends an ancient, ice-encased artifact while the other team tries to capture it. If the team managed to capture or defend the artifact within the time limit, they would win.]
[Time limit: 20 minutes.]
[Match will start in five minutes. Good luck!]
