Chapter 1515 - An Unbelievable Collapse

What happened?
Everyone was stunned. Countless people in the crowd stood up, looking around in a panic.
Dust and smoke was scattered all around the stage. The lifelike projections caused many people to misunderstand what had happened. They thought that the actual competition stage had collapsed. It wasnât until the stadium broadcasted an explanation repeatedly that the panicked crowd came to a realization. When they looked carefully at the stage again, they saw that the stage was intact. What wasnât intact were the scenes of the match displayed by the projection.
That beautiful fairy-tale like forest had been struck by an apocalypse.
Everything was destroyed. The buildings and walkways built on top of the trees lost their support and collapsed to the ground.
In the group arena, the audience had witnessed the inside of a manor being completely wrecked. However, in comparison to this scene, the level of shock was similar to the difference between an explosion from a grenade and an atomic bomb.
What happened?
Everyone was obviously curious, but soon afterwards, the people with better eyesight could see a figure moving inside this apocalyptic scene.
Who was it?
They couldnât see the figure clearly. Luckily, the camera zoomed in figure and displayed it on the big screen for everyone to see.
Lord Grim!
Lord Grim was still moving. What else? Flames, the other end had flames! The camera focused on a different area. Dancing Rain, it was Su Muchengâs Dancing Rain. Her surroundings were collapsing, but she stood there firmly, firing her gun.
Firing where?
The camera followed the path of her artillery shells and quickly found Tyrannyâs Dazzling Hundred Blossoms. He wasnât nearly as calm as Dancing Rain. He looked like he had come out from a disaster movie, bitterly seeking to survive. The artillery shells from Dancing Rain landed on him. Zhang Jiale hadnât noticed the attack. He didnât have the energy to.
Happy was still attacking!
A Satellite Beam descended from the sky, sweeping over Tyranny.
What else?
Concealed Light!
The audience found Concealed Light. He was the same as Dancing Rain. The collapsing surroundings simply served as a backdrop. It was as if he didnât even see it. He calmly waved his staff, placing two symbols on the ground, controlling his summons.
Thunder Eagle!
Young Wyvern!
Summons with flight had a huge advantage in these situations. These two summons followed Luo Jiâs commands, unobstructed by the terrain. Their attacks... werenât towards Tyranny. The fireballs and thunderbolts swept through the forest, exacerbating the collapse.
Could this apocalyptic scene have been created by this rookie, Luo Ji?
After realizing this point, everyone thought of the word, strategy.
Had all of this been a part of Happyâs strategy?
They couldnât help but examine the outcome of this strategy. How should they examine it? By looking at the health on Tyrannyâs characters!
A devastating sight.
Tyrannyâs situation was too horrible to describe.
Tyranny originally held the advantage in health, but with one move, the sky and earth had reversed. All five characters on Tyranny had experienced a massive drop in health. Whatâs worse, it hadnât ended yet, because Happy was still attacking them amidst this chaos. Happyâs assault was with rhythm and thought. Su Muchengâs Dancing Rain led the way. Then, Ye Xiuâs Lord Grim, Tang Rouâs Soft Mist, and the summons from Luo Jiâs Concealed Light joined in.
As for Tyranny?
Everyone was the same as Zhang Jiale. They had no way of making any decisions in this chaos. Even if they were old generals, none of them had ever experienced the the entire team trapped in a collapsing forest. They couldnât make any contact with each other. Everyone was trapped in their own predicament. They tried to grasp their opponentâs attacks and counterattack, but the outcome was unsatisfactory. Happy held the initiative, utilizing this unbelievable collapse to thoroughly crush Tyranny.
Who died first didnât matter. The names of Tyrannyâs five characters turned gray one after the other. They had a sixth player, but did it matter? Happy had five and not a single one missing!
âLi... Coach Li...â When Pan Lin saw the fourth name on Tyranny turn gray, he came back to his senses. He and Li Yibo had been completely dumbstruck during this period of time, not uttering a single sound. No one in the broadcast team reminded them. Everyone was staring blankly at the scene in front of them.
âAh... this... this...â Li Yibo regained his composure, but apart from saying âthisâ, he didnât know what else to say.
Tyrannyâs sixth player, Bai Yanfeiâs Elementalist Rota, had entered the match, rushing towards the battlefield without any second thoughts. No matter the situation, Tyrannyâs young heroes wouldnât back down. But everyone knew that there was nothing he could do. Not even a miracle could save Tyranny at this point.
The match was over. What they needed to do was review this final astonishing scene.
What had happened?
Even though Pan Lin had called for Li Yibo, he ultimately didnât ask this question. He knew that, let alone Li Yibo, no one in entire world had ever witnessed such a wide-scale collapse in a Glory competition before.
âThis... I feel like... Happy had intentionally set it up?â Li Yibo guessed. Even though he didnât dare believe that it was possible to set up such a frightening scene, seeing how Happy came out of it safe and sound, and then calmly and efficiently wiped out Tyranny, it could be seen that all of this was planned.
âHow did they do it?â Pan Lin asked. In the end, he finally asked this question. Those were the only words going through his head right now. Apart from these words, he couldnât think of anything else.
How did they do it?
Li Yibo laughed dryly. How could he know! But when he turned to look, he suddenly focused on a single character, Concealed Light.
Luo Ji, Concealed Light...
Concealed Light had joined the battle 13 minutes and 32 seconds after it had begun. What had he been doing before then?
Li Yibo realized something and hastily had the director find a replay from Concealed Lightâs perspective.
Luo Ji, it really was Luo Ji!
He hadnât joined the battle until 13 minutes and 32 seconds later. Apart from hiding together with his teammates at first, Concealed Light had been busy in this forest area the entire time. This calamity had been brought about by him.
âItâs Luo Ji...â Li Yibo said. This time, the broadcast displayed a replay of what Luo Jiâs Concealed Light had been busy doing at the beginning. âBut donât ask me how he did it. I donât know either...ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Luo Ji was just one person. But he was a Summoner, so he could summon many servants to do his bidding. The scene shown in front of everyone seemed to be a busy construction site. All sorts of summons were fiercely attacking the surroundings under the Concealed Lightâs orders.
âThis... is he breaking apart all the parts supporting the buildings?â Pan Lin said.
âHe broke them all? Itâs clear that he needs to be able to time when the place collapses,â Li Yibo said.
âThis...â Pan Lin wanted to how he did that, but this time, Li Yibo had been prepared. He had preemptively said âDonât ask me, I donât know.â In the end, Pan Linâs âHow did he do it?â became a sigh, because this could probably be answered by no one but Luo Ji himself.
âI really want to go to the post-match press conference now,â Li Yibo said.
This question would definitely be the highlight of the post-match press conference. The brilliance of the group arena and the other parts of the team competition had probably been forgotten by now. Everyoneâs attention was on this question...
The match officially ended, and Happy won the team competition with a five point lead. When Bai Yanfeiâs Rota died, the surroundings hadnât entirely collapsed yet. There were a few places that were still shuddering. Apart from the astonishment at the turn of events, everyone was also in praise of Gloryâs in-game mechanics.
It was over. Happy had won. For Happyâs fans, this was naturally something to be excited about. The Tyranny fans were silent. How could they be happy about such a defeat?
The two teams lined up on stage. After the six players on Tyranny came out from the player booths, they raised their heads to look at the big screen in the stadium because the highlights of the match would always be played during this time. How could they have forgotten about what had just happened? They needed to know the answer!
At the end, when the two teams lined up, the six players on Tyranny were all looking at Luo Ji, who was standing at the end. Ye Xiu? Su Mucheng? Fang Rui? No matter how big of a star, at this moment, they were nothing but air.
Finally, Ye Xiu let out a laugh, taking the initiative to shake Han Wenqingâs hand.
âYou were probably scared out of your mind, no?â Ye Xiu said.
âEven you couldnât have done that,â Han Wenqing said.
âHaha,â Ye Xiu laughed and didnât explain. He shook Zhang Xinjieâs hand and asked: âYou couldnât figure it out either, right?â
Zhang Xinjie shook his head in honesty. Yes, even he only knew that Luo Ji had been the cause for everything. He didnât know how he did it, and if someone asked him to do it, he wouldnât have been able to do it either.
âSorry for your loss,â Ye Xiu shook Zhang Jialeâs hands.
âSorry for your loss, my ass,â Zhang Jiale cursed.
âWhat kind of people are your team members?â When it was his turn, Lin Jingyan spoke up first.
