61: The counterattack horn in the smoke! Smoke bombs, rising!

“Clear division of labor, everyone performing their duties! Emperor Gu’s command ability is absolutely amazing!”

“Ye Qiong takes the front as a shield, Ye Liuli snipes from a distance, Cang Xuan provides foresight, Ling Xi is the healer, and Emperor Gu himself is the main damage dealer... This setup is perfect!”

“Church offense and defense! Absolutely thrilling!!!”

“This is what a team game should be! Brothers! Have you learned anything?!”

“The ‘gold diggers’ outside: Weren’t we chasing five lone, fat sheep just now? How did we run into an alloy wall?”

“Hahahaha, look at the other side, they’re stunned! They were chasing so happily just now, now they know they’ve kicked a titanium alloy plate!”

“Asking for the psychological shadow area of the opponents!”

Outside St. Martin’s Church.

The once frantic gunfire temporarily ceased.

Yet, the killing intent in the air grew even thicker.

The few professional players who survived.

Were relying on their respective covers.

In the team voice channel.

There was no longer the previous fanaticism and greed.

Only solemnity and surprise remained.

“FNC, you guys just rushed in, what exactly happened?”

The captain of North America’s top team, TSM, asked with a frown.

“...I don’t know,”

FNC’s captain’s voice was trembling slightly.

“We threw smoke grenades and flashbangs, standard counter-terrorist assault tactics. But... as soon as our people rushed in, before they even clearly saw the situation inside, they were all gone. It was like... like hitting a wall.”

“We, G2, flanked through the cemetery and were also discovered. They seemed to know we were there in advance; we were picked off one by one as we climbed over the wall.”

“That sniper on the second floor is a monster! My spotter just showed his helmet for a moment and was headshotted with one shot!”

After a brief exchange.

A consensus formed in the minds of all professional players.

The five people inside the church.

Were definitely not ordinary players.

Their opponents were a ‘monster’ squad with seamless coordination and unfathomable strength!

“We can’t fight individually anymore.”

TSM’s captain took a deep breath.

And began to command in the public channel.

“All teams listen! We now have a common goal!”

“I suggest that TSM, G2, and FNC, the three teams, launch feints simultaneously from three directions to attract their attention!”

“All other teams, concentrate on using throwables, grenades, incendiary bombs, and flatten! Burn down the entire church for me!”

This simple, crude, yet incredibly effective tactic.

Immediately received a response from everyone.

A saturated destruction strike, jointly planned by top professional players from around the world.

Was about to descend upon this small church.

In three minutes... Inside the church.

The atmosphere was unusually calm.

Ling Xi was bandaging Ye Qiong’s arm wound.

The latter stood silently by the door like an iron tower.

Ye Liuli was wiping the barrel of her SKS.

Gu Yanci was checking the dwindling ammunition.

“They’re coming.”

Cang Xuan, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly spoke.

His voice reached everyone’s ears.

“Main entrance, feint. West cemetery, feint. East bell tower, feint.”

He paused.

And continued in his calm, unruffled tone:

“The real killing move will be throwables from all directions. They want to blow us up alive in here.”

These words.

Made Ling Xi and Ye Liuli, who were busy, stop their movements.

A hint of shock flashed in their eyes.

The enemy’s tactics.

Were revealed by him so casually and completely!

On Gu Yanci’s face.

A knowing smile appeared.

“As expected. The wisdom of mortals, after all, has its limits.”

He stood up.

And brushed the dust off his body.

His voice was not loud, but full of confidence.

“Since they want to see a grand fireworks display, then we... will give them one!”

“Ye Liuli, abandon the second floor, guard the entrance to the basement.”

“Ye Qiong, abandon the main door, retreat behind the pulpit in the nave.”

“Ling Xi, give me all the smoke grenades. Cang Xuan, continue to be our eyes.”

“Move out!”

As TSM’s captain gave the order.

Outside the church.

Gunfire erupted!

Three top teams.

Launched textbook feints from three directions.

However.

What responded to them was dead silence.

Inside the church.

There was no sign of any retaliation.

“What’s going on? Did they give up?”

“Never mind! Everyone! Throw your throwables!!”

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

In an instant.

Dozens of grenades and incendiary bombs streaked across the sky.

Like a meteor shower.

Precisely landing in every window of the church.

Covering every inch of the church floor!

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Deafening explosions.

Instantly engulfed the entire church!

Fierce flames burned.

Black smoke billowed from the windows.

At this moment.

Everyone believed.

The five people inside the church.

Had no chance of survival!

“We won! Ten million is ours!”

A player shouted excitedly.

However.

Before his shout faded, an unexpected change occurred!

“Puff! Puff! Puff!”

Several smoke grenades.

Were suddenly thrown from inside the church.

A huge white curtain appeared around the church!

“Be careful! They’re not dead!”

Everyone immediately became alert.

But it was too late.

A black lightning bolt.

Charged out fiercely from a breach in the side of the church.

It was the ghostly Ye Qiong!

Behind him.

Followed Gu Yanci and Ye Liuli, wielding dual pistols!

They did not choose to defend to the death.

Instead, when the enemy thought they were certainly dead.

At the moment their guard was most relaxed.

They launched... a counter-charge!

Ye Qiong was like a human tank.

Directly smashing into a team’s formation.

Iron fists swung, flesh and blood flew!

Gu Yanci and Ye Liuli were on his flanks.

Like two sharp scalpels.

Using the cover of the smoke.

Quickly and precisely.

Reaping the professional players who hadn’t yet reacted!

This scene.

Completely overturned the understanding of all spectators!

In the live stream.

The bullet comments froze for a full three seconds.

Then, there was an explosive eruption!

“???????????”

“Counter... counter-charge?! They launched a counter-charge after being surrounded by dozens of people and having the ground washed with grenades?!”

“This is a cheat, damn it.”

“Madmen! They are all madmen!!”

“That brawny man blocking the door! Is he even human?! He punched a fully-equipped Level 3 helmet to pieces!!”

“What did I see? That white-robed Taoist priest, he’s even following behind, as leisurely as if he’s taking a stroll!”

The official commentator was so excited his voice cracked:

“A miracle! This is a divine miracle! After enduring a saturated bombardment, they not only survived but also charged out of the church in a way we cannot comprehend!”

“They... they are now... hunting down those professional players!”

“My God! What kind of match am I commentating on?!”
