Group C (8)

- Pietro Anella! Kill 2 American tankers with amazing psychic application and let the fight begin!

-My God, if you use superpowers like that, who the hell can survive? Anella, you are so powerful! Every single fight has to start with at least two dead!

- Crisis in America! Korea pushes hard! Only two tanks left! Gerald Walker's shoulders are heavy! Seo Moon-yeop rushes at Gerald Walker! Catch up!

"Waaaaaa!!"

"Walker! Walker! Walker!"

"Don't lose to Seomun!"

American fans, who filled most of the arena, cheered and cheered.

Gerald Walker and Seo Moon-yeop.

It was a battle of pride between the aces of both teams.

Soon after, the arena became even hotter as the two men battled at a frightening speed.

Gerald Walker, whose physical abilities have increased by 20% due to body strengthening.

Seo Moon-yeop did not back down from him and countered all attacks.

The tempo was so fast that it was hard to believe that both of them were tanks.

Since both of them demonstrate agility that transcends human limits, it was a dazzling spectacle for the spectators.

- Amazing! What an amazing showdown!

-Gerald Walker is ridiculously quick considering his size. On top of that, if he uses physical enhancement, he can exert power that no one would normally be able to handle! However, Seo Mun-yeop is still Seo Moon-yeop. He doesn't move an inch, and he doesn't seem to be struggling!

The spectators were dumbfounded by their quicker-than-eye workshop, but the former Battlefield players were able to follow how the fight was progressing with their own eyes.

But they, too, were shocked with their mouths wide open.

This is because the techniques used in their workshops, unfolding in a short moment, were all of a high degree of difficulty.

-Gerald, we need to win within the 30 second time limit, but there is no sign of winning. Seo Moon-yeop has increased his speed and is rather pushing!

-Against the Korean team, even if Seo Moon-yeop was properly marked, it would be a success. But right now, the US is at a numerical disadvantage. In addition, Pietro Anella is still stirring while unleashing that terrifying psychic power!

- Pietro! You just have to endure Pietro's psychic powers. Korea's support Cho Seung-ho is out of the fight, and Ina-yeon's attack doesn't have much power. The collapse of the American tank line is a big risk, but it can be overcome!

While Gerald Walker and Seo Moon-yeop fought fiercely, the United States was coping with Korea's offensive like a first-class player.

Gerald Walker was also busy with a one-on-one match against Seo Moon-yeop, so he only had one tank left, but melee dealers joined in and covered the tank line.

The melee dealers were so strong that the Korean 4 tankers were pushed back.

And the other half were running hard and breaking Pietro's magic circle one by one.

It's a magic circle that won't even budge if you hit it with enough force, but when a group of people pool their strength and strike it down, the number of magic circles has reduced to 7. The United States, too, had its own countermeasures against Pietro.

It was when such an unexpected development unfolded.

Seo Mun-yeop suddenly jumped back and stepped back, widening the distance.

And immediately fixed it with a spear-throwing grip.

It was a grip change paint that I often do.

But Gerald Walker did not budge. Because I knew very well that Seo Moon-yeop was stealing the opponent's timing with that feint.

however······.

Dig!

It wasn't paint this time.

After a little time lag, I really threw the spear.

Startle.

Gerald Walker was slightly agitated by Seo Moon-yeop's technique, which he threw after stealing the timing by time difference.

But the recovery was also instantaneous.

'Yeah, throw it. If I block this and rush in before I pull out a new spear, it will be my victory.'

Gerald Walker judged that it was a mistake by Seo Moon-yeop, who really threw the spear out of anger.

In an instant, a scenario in which he would win flashed through his mind. It was proof that he was top-notch.

but.

'what!'

Gerald Walker, who raised his shield to block the flying spear, was taken aback.

Because the window flew too slowly.

I felt like I was momentarily hit.

Seo Moon-yeop dug a double trap.

I adjusted the 'throw' so that it flew as slowly as possible.

Gerald Walker had to defend with his shield until the slow-flying spear reached it completely, while Seo Moon-yeop took out a new spear.

Kang!

The spear was blocked by the shield.

But Gerald Walker wasn't happy at all.

In the end, the timing was lost.

Seo Mun-yeop's fierce offensive started, and Gerald Walker had to keep defending.

Seo Moon-yeop, who raises the tempo one more gear and spreads a series of stabs.

The trick of speed control he realized was perfectly applied.

Gerald Walker was on the defensive.

While pushing, Seo Moon-yeop also designed a scenario to feed the finish.

Hiss!

The spear quickly aimed at the bottom, then bounced to face.

A spear that changes direction and flies like a snake.

Gerald Walker hurriedly raised his shield and covered his face.

At that moment, Gerald Walker's vision was blocked by the shield.

Of course, right after Gerald Walker defended, he quickly put his shield aside to restore his sight. Because I learned from Seo Moon-yeop the other day that one's field of vision should not be limited by a shield.

But when the shield was removed, Seo Mun-yeop was gone.

next moment.

hooked!

"Kuuk!"

Gerald Walker was stabbed in the left shoulder by a spear.

'I got hit!'

The shield was put aside, but Seo Moon-yeop followed the movement of the shield and crouched to the side.

A technique to use the opponent's shield reversely and hide out of sight!

As a result, it was like performing magic to disappear out of the opponent's sight for a very short time.

Gerald Walker, who suffered a shoulder, hurriedly retreated.

"Isn't the shield going up?"

Seo Moon-yeop smiles coldly and speaks.

Gerald Walker gritted his teeth.

It was difficult to raise the shield in his left hand because he had been stabbed in his left shoulder. Seo Moon-yeop saw through it like a ghost.

The series of stabs that unfolded before long only aimed at the top.

Gerald Walker tried to step back, but his slow feet caught him.

hooked

-Seo Mun-yeop, 1 kill.

Seo Moon-yeop succeeded in defeating Gerald Walker.

It happened when there were still 7 seconds left in Gerald Walker's physical enhancement.

-Oh, my God! Gerald Walker has been hit!

-It was a continuation of Seo Mun-yeop's phenomenal technique! They stole the timing with a slow javelin, pushed forward, and used Gerald Walker's shield against them to move out of sight!

- In that brief moment!

-yes! When attacking a tank, the technique of hiding behind a point where you can't see because of the shield the tank is holding is a technique that melee dealers are good at, but I've never seen it done at such speed!

- At this rate, America is in danger! When Gerald Walker was killed, the balance was completely broken!

Seo Moon-yeop, who became free, started hunting other American players.

Because of the heroic spirits controlled by Pietro, frantic American players became his prey.

-Seo Moon-yeop, 2 kills.

- Seo Mun-yeop, 3 kills.

-Pietro Anella, 3 kills.

-Seo Mun-yeop, 4 kills.

It was a full blown kill festival.

Since there was only one tank, all American players were exposed to Seo Moon-yeop's onslaught and were killed one after another.

The United States eventually collapsed under the one-sided attack of the two men.

6-0.

In the meantime, 5 members of the Korean team were also killed, but in the end, the 2nd set was also a victory for Korea.

-1 set, 5-0, Korea won. MVP: Pietro Anella.

-2 sets, 6-0, Korea won. MVP: Seo Mun-yeop.

Korea defeated the United States and took 2 wins to rank first in Group C.

***

The Netherlands defeated South Africa 2-1.

The first set was won, but the second set was caught up in South Africa's massive early surprise operation, which was plagued by evil.

The third set was won again, but the Netherlands sighed at the loss in the second set with a long way to go.

Meanwhile, at the news of the 2-1 defeat between the Netherlands and South Africa, Korea celebrated.

As a result, even if Korea loses the match against the Netherlands, advance to the round of 16 is guaranteed.

Korea did not lose a single set, neither against South Africa nor against the United States.

Therefore, even if Korea, the United States, and the Netherlands all win 2-1, they will rank higher than the Netherlands, which lost a set to South Africa.

In other words, even if they were completely defeated in the next game, the round of 16 was confirmed with first or second place.

As for the Netherlands, they had to hope to beat Korea 2-0 and lose a set even if the US lost or won against South Africa.

However, the atmosphere in the Netherlands was gloomy because they saw the potential of Korea, which even defeated the United States.

"Still, if you rise to the top, you can comfortably advance to the quarterfinals."

At Coach Reiner Heim's words, everyone nodded as if it were natural.

The bracket for the round of 16 was decided by lottery, with the second-place team in a group playing against the first-place team in another group.

Currently, the most influential countries in the group are France, England, and Germany.

Needless to say, France and Germany were the strongest teams in the world, and the United Kingdom national team was also a strong team supported by the Irish Wizards.

In particular, Gary Williams, who turned into a long-distance dealer, became an assist machine that helped his teammates kill by harassing enemies with a powerful alloy bow.

-Reinforced Body: Increases strength, agility, and speed by 5 in dungeons. Increases by 10 when playing as a Ranged Dealer.

It was because the hidden characteristics of Gary Williams' psychic powers were discovered by Seo Mun-yeop.

Strength, agility, and speed are 5 each higher than when he was a melee dealer, so it was a big difference.

Furthermore, while receiving intensive training from Seo Moon-yeop at YSM, he learned how to assist with a bow.

The United Kingdom national team, fueled by the unexpected growth of Gary Williams, was showing a terrifying rise.

Korea also showed the aspect of a strong team by beating the United States, but it also had a lot of weaknesses as it relied heavily on Seo Mun-yeop and Pietro. I couldn't be sure that I could win like the United States when I met strong teams like that.

"You shouldn't be vigilant, but the Netherlands is a team that is no more difficult than the United States, and even if they lose, if they take just one set, they will be ranked first, so there's no problem."

Baekje-ho was optimistic.

There was Seo Moon-yeop, who had become stronger like a monster, but it was unlikely that he would lose.

'There's that monster too.'

Staring at Pietro with a disapproving look, Baek Je-ho muttered to himself.

Wearing a human mask, but the core is a former high priest.

I don't know what the hell Seo Moon-yeop is doing behind the scenes, so I don't know why he brought such a writer as a colleague, but neither Bonama nor Pietro have ever truly demonstrated their skills. Wasn't he the high priest who ruled that subterranean civilization?

"Based on the data accumulated so far, it is clear what kind of operation the Netherlands will play against us. South Africa tried to ambush Seo Moon-yeop and was defeated, and the United States tried to win in a one-stroke fight, but lost."

It is difficult to get rid of Seo Moon-yeop by attacking with several people, and it is difficult to confront them head-on with one stroke.

Then there was only one answer.

Coach Reinerheim continued to explain.

"The Netherlands will focus on other players besides Seo Moon-yeop. Looking back at the previous match against the United States, even though a one-hit fight took place in an advantageous composition, our team suffered deaths by 6 or 5 players."

Except for Seo Moon-yeop and Pietro, the data showed that the rest were easy.
