Chapter 7: A Magician-like Bizarre Fighting Style
Han Wenqing couldn't figure it out, but Su Muqiu wouldn't give him much time to think.
Soon, Qiu Musu slid in and stuck to him again.
Han Wenqing's more than ten years of glorious career were not wasted; his on-court reaction and awareness are among the best in the league.
Faced with Qiu Musu's close proximity once again, Da Mo Guyan raised his foot and used Eagle Stomp to stomp towards Qiu Musu.
If Qiu Musu were to attempt that inverted spinning kick again, he would inevitably face Desert Lone Smoke's Eagle Stomp head-on. A fully upgraded Eagle Stomp consists of five kicks, each stronger than the last, making it stronger than the Sharpshooter's spinning kick.
Unfortunately, Su Muqiu would not use the same move a second time.
"Bang bang bang!"
Qiu Musu fired several shots in quick succession, using the recoil to accelerate her slide, and "whoosh," she slid past Da Mo Guyan's defenses. Qiu Musu then swung both guns in a semi-circle, simultaneously slamming them down, her target: Da Mo Guyan's groin.
Han Wenqing instantly realized that this was the Gunner's level one aerial skill - Pull Strike.
Gunners can only use one gun or one hand cannon. What's with the two guns in front of you?
Is this skill usable like this? With both guns at the same time?
Many professional players in the league have their own unique skills. Han Wenqing is very knowledgeable and has seen most of these skills before, so he knows how to deal with them.
But this time, Han Wenqing was genuinely at a loss. His decades-long career in Glory had suddenly been exposed, revealing a blind spot in his knowledge. He had never seen this "pull-up" technique before.
Despite the danger, Han Wenqing remained calm and maneuvered the Desert Lone Smoke to half-turn in mid-air. He kicked Qiu Musu, hitting Qiu Musu's right hand squarely. This blocked Qiu Musu's right-hand strike, but it couldn't stop Qiu Musu's left-hand strike. The Desert Lone Smoke rolled smoothly into the sky.
Qiu Musu thoughtfully used all the aerial skills of the four gun-type professions.
Han Wenqing came to the online game today to fight for the BOSS, so Desert Lone Smoke wasn't wearing silver gear, but rather orange gear. Orange gear has attributes that are universal in the Glory game and doesn't offer resistance to being airborne.
Thus, under the watchful eyes of hundreds of players from both sides, Desert Lone Smoke absorbed all the aerial skills.
Qiu Musu moved slightly and immediately opened fire with his two guns, using his special gun-pressing technique to try to send Desert Lone Smoke to his own camp.
Han Wenqing could no longer hold back. If he were sent to Happy's camp, Desert Lone Smoke's life would be over. With no other choice, Desert Lone Smoke immediately used Steel Bones, gaining a 20-second invulnerability state, finally ending his floating state and landing safely.
Han Wenqing's expression was rather grim. He had suffered a major setback in the one-on-one fight.
Having gained the Invincible Body state, Desert Lone Smoke immediately launched a fierce attack, using the Cloud Body skill to flash to Qiu Musu's side and unleashing a series of attacks including Heart-Piercing Kick, Whirlwind Kick, and Double Tiger Palm.
With the invincibility buff, Desert Smoke rampages wildly, and the leather-armored gunner naturally cannot withstand it head-on.
Qiu Musu ran and jumped, using her flying gun skills to dodge the rampaging attacks of Da Mo Gu Yan.
Despite his best efforts, Han Wenqing couldn't gain a significant advantage. Once the invincible state of the Desert Lone Smoke disappeared, he was immediately put on the defensive again.
Han Wenqing had a headache.
Qiu Musu's fighting style is too bizarre. It's different from traditional gun-based combat techniques and traditional shooting styles. It doesn't belong to either ground-based or aerial combat styles; it's more like a fusion of the essence of several traditional fighting styles.
It can be used in close combat, long-range shooting, groin strikes while the opponent is lying down, or even handstand kicks to the groin. There are no set routines or fixed patterns. In short, use whatever moves work, do whatever it takes to break the opponent's defense, and you could even say do whatever is as insidious as possible.
There are no rules at all, no effort is required, all they want is to make people look good.
Han Wenqing thought about it and felt that this playing style was somewhat similar to Wang Jiexi's Magician style.
Both were incredible attack angles, and both involved unimaginable movement routes.
Just as a mage can fly, a sharpshooter can also use throwing guns. A mage can turn in mid-air, and so can a sharpshooter, and the flight trajectory of a dual-wielding sharpshooter is equally unpredictable.
Wang Jiexi's attack methods are tricky, and Qiu Musu's attack methods are equally tricky. Not only tricky, but also disgusting—what kind of good person always stabs their opponent in the crotch? Isn't that shameful?
This bizarre fighting style made Han Wenqing more and more excited as he fought. In the middle of the fight, Han Wenqing subconsciously activated the Fierce Tiger Dance.
This is the ultimate move of a level 70 boxer, and it's also Han Wenqing's signature move. This punch and kick has knocked down countless opponents.
As soon as the sound effect of the ferocious tiger dancing wildly came on, Han Wenqing was suddenly awakened and realized that he had used a skill of level 60 or higher.
So Han Wenqing stopped operating the game and let his character finish the Tiger Dance combo in place.
"Sorry, I just pressed the button without thinking," Han Wenqing said.
Damo Guyan stopped what he was doing, and Su Muqiu also stopped what he was doing.
"Shall we continue?" Su Muqiu asked.
"I'm not fighting anymore." Han Wenqing's answer was straightforward. "I promised you I wouldn't use any ultimate skills above level 60, but I did, so I consider this a loss."
"Your playstyle is too bizarre. It's hard for me to resist using my ultimate skill (which is level 60 or higher). How about this, I'll go back and watch the replay, and carefully study your strange playstyle."
"Alright, I also need some time to familiarize myself with the skills above level 60 and the new equipment. Next time, we can have a fair fight," Su Muqiu said.
"What about a month from now?" Han Wenqing asked.
"Okay, a month is enough," Su Muqiu replied.
"Alright, let's have another match in a month." The two reached an agreement.
Han Wenqing then led his men back to the main force.
"How are you feeling, Captain Han?" Zhang Xinjie asked.
"Very strong." Han Wenqing carefully considered his words. "If this person were with Ye Xiu, Excellent Era would probably have won more than three consecutive championships."
"What's even more terrifying is that I could tell from his tone of voice that he was drunk."
Zhang Jiale and the others gasped in shock: "If they can fight like this while drunk, it would be even more terrifying if they were sober."
Fighting generals was a popular way to compete for bosses in the early days of the Glory online game.
Back then, online game guilds were generally small; a guild with one or two hundred members was considered a large guild. Each time they raided a boss, they would typically send out only a few dozen people.
The fewer the number of players, the greater the impact of a skilled player. Players of Ye Xiu's or Han Wenqing's caliber can often deliver the decisive blow in most battles.
Thus, the game of "fighting generals" came into being and quickly became popular.
Later, online game guilds grew larger and more professional. More and more players joined in to fight bosses, ranging from one to four or five groups.
In this situation, the role of a skilled frontline fighter becomes less and less important, while the role of a master strategist becomes more and more important.
The game mode of dueling has gradually disappeared, and many new players have never seen it.
Many veteran players of the game "Overlord's Ambition" have witnessed the Duel of Generals. Han Wenqing's defeat in the Duel has dampened the morale of the "Overlord's Ambition" players.
If these players had a morale value displayed above their heads, then the message "Morale -1, -1, -1" would definitely appear at this moment.
