Chapter 7: Omnidirectional Silence

  "Two points of intelligence in hand!"

  As the Ice Maiden died, a blue light ball escaped from her corpse and merged into Su Hong's Silent Magician body, transforming into a pure magical energy that once again increased Su Hong's Intelligence Hero attribute by two points, which in turn caused the Wisdom Blade's attack output to rise even higher.

  Not only that, after killing the Ice Girl, Su Hong also got a lot of experience points for assisting in the kill. Adding to his previous solo kill on the enemy's Earthshaker, he finally reached level 6 and could now learn the ultimate skill of the Silencer hero.

  Silence across all domains!

  Ignore magic immunity, after activation, can prevent all enemy units on the battlefield from releasing magic.

  Su Hong's eyes lit up slightly, and she chose this heroic skill without hesitation. If the pre-sixth-level Silent Assassin was just a fragile intelligence hero, then the post-sixth-level Silent Assassin who had learned the ultimate move was extremely intimidating, especially for those heroes who relied on magical skills to output damage when facing the Silent Assassin, it was simply a huge headache.

  "Li Ge, I've reached level 6 and have a big move now. Don't just keep farming in the bottom lane, if you want to win in the end, we need to destroy their base. You and the Earthshaker come to mid lane, let's group up and push the tower together!" Su Hong said through the voice chat function of his Bloodthorn tattoo.

  "Alright, I'm coming!" The burly man who transformed into a dark knight replied without any hesitation. As a late-stage hero of the Tianhui faction, he had been farming gold on the lower road and his development wasn't much worse than that of the Void Mask. He was now at level 8, equipped with fake legs and a night demon, possessing certain firepower output.

  "I'll head back to the base to replenish at Life Spring, and then I'll immediately join you guys in front of the first tower on mid lane via teleport scroll." The coffee-colored T-shirt young man echoed.

  "I'm here too......" The bespectacled man transformed into a powerful bull, carrying the totem pole on his shoulders. Although he was somewhat reluctant, seeing that the other two were running towards the middle road, he had no choice but to follow suit and arrived at the middle road, reuniting with everyone.

  On the central battlefield, Tianhui's Tree Man Battalion was fiercely fighting against Ye Wei's Corpse-eating Ghost Troops. Soldiers were dying one after another, with blood splattering everywhere. However, the hero on the opposite side had yet to reveal himself, as if he had already sensed something and was hiding in a corner, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

  It's strange that even on the battlefield of ups and downs, there is no shadow of the hero in front of us, as if he suddenly disappeared without a trace.

  The entire battlefield suddenly became eerily strange, with a tense and oppressive atmosphere permeating every person's heart.

  "What to do?" The rough and burly man, also known as Li Ge in the eyes of the glasses-wearing man, had a solemn expression, unconsciously glancing at Su Hong beside him. Even he himself did not notice that the command authority of the Tianhui camp had quietly shifted into Su Hong's hands.

  "It seems that the opponent has already sensed our intentions and is preparing to engage in a fierce head-on team battle with us. This battle will determine life and death, and we absolutely cannot lose." Su Hong calmly analyzed, although he was just a novice player, his understanding of the Shangyue Space and the Ancient Ruins battlefield was far inferior to that of the three rough men, but as an extremely talented professional player, his keen insight into the battle situation was not something that the three rough men could match.

  "Needless to say, anyone can see that. Do you need to mention it?" The bespectacled man muttered under his breath, clearly displeased at seeing Su Hong, a newcomer, steal the show.

  Su Hong looked at the bespectacled man with a hint of a smile, then opened his mouth and said: "Since the opponent is already prepared, we must change our strategy. If we rush up like a swarm of bees, it's easy to be stunned by the half-human mammoth's big move, plus the Void Mask's big move and firepower output. With a little carelessness, there's a possibility of being wiped out by the opponent."

  The sixth-level finishing move of the Half-Human Mammoth is a two-handed reversal skill, which can pull enemy heroes within 400 yards to its side through some mysterious empowerment, causing 2.5 seconds of dizziness and massive damage, extremely terrifying.

  And the Void's fake face six-level big move Time Boundary, can create a static space boundary by tearing through time and space. Except for himself who can act freely within it, all other units and heroes will be in an absolutely static state. Although the range is not large, if released well, it can also turn the tide of battle.

  It was precisely because of the fear of the two big moves of the opposing heroes that the rough and burly men were at a loss, not daring to launch a rash attack on Nightmarer's defensive tower, for the opposing heroes might be lurking behind the defensive tower, waiting to ambush them.

  Seeing everyone looking at him, Su Hong smiled slightly and said directly: "I suggest that the Earthshaker walks in front, trying to lure out all the heroes on the opposite side. Then the Demon Witch and Dark Ranger can find an opportunity to cut in. As for me, I'll stand at the back and try not to be seen by the heroes on the opposite side."

  "What? What makes you think I'd go die for you? You little brat is obviously taking revenge!" The glasses-wearing man suddenly got angry, scolding and complaining, turning his head to the rough-looking big guy and saying: "Li Ge, don't listen to this little brat, otherwise we'll definitely all be killed by him! My Earthshaker God Cow is a very powerful counter-control hero, I should be hiding in the back, using my trench skill to stun the enemy heroes, making it easy for you guys to kill them. But now this little brat actually makes me stand in the front, and I might not even get to release one skill before being killed by the other team! You call that not taking revenge?"

  "That……" The rough-looking big man's face was slightly awkward, and he looked up at Su Hong, in fact, he didn't quite agree with Su Hong's proposal. However, thinking of Su Hong's several stunning performances, he didn't directly open his mouth to deny it. The coffee-colored T-shirt young man beside him also fell silent for a moment, wanting to hear Su Hong's explanation before expressing his opinion.

  "Take revenge?" Su Hong's mouth slightly curled up, and he didn't bother to explain anything. Instead, he directly retorted: "What you said earlier was reasonable, but tell me, as a level 2 Earthshaker Cow in a large-scale team battle, what role can you play? Your skills are indeed powerful control abilities, but your level is too low, and you can only stun the enemy for one second. Once the enemy hero rushes out, can you stop the ultimate move of Void Mask or Half-Human Mammoth? Moreover, if we're all low on health and have no fighting power left, or even dead, can a level 2 Earthshaker Cow like you complete the final harvest and help us win this team battle?"

  "Suddenly, Su Hong asked a series of rhetorical questions, leaving the bespectacled man speechless and unable to refute. In the end, it was just that his level was too low, and this person who lured the enemy out of their lair was indeed the most suitable choice."

  However, the bespectacled man had no intention of giving up easily. If this were a virtual DOT A game match, he wouldn't have minded, but this wasn't any game - if it was a game at all, it was a bloody and brutal deathmatch, with the cost of dying once being extremely heavy. The sheer realism of the pain of death was already unbearable, not to mention that he had already died once before. If he were to die again, it would likely affect the Overlord's evaluation of him.

  So, the bespectacled man sneered coldly and took a few steps back, using his actions to indicate that he would absolutely not follow Su Hong's suggestion. Did they think he'd deliver himself to death? No way!

  "Qiangzi, I know this is a bit hard on you, but for the sake of the bigger picture, I still hope you'll make a sacrifice. Otherwise, if we lose the war, the punishment you'll receive will be far more than just dying once. You should also understand this in your heart." The burly man said in a deep voice.

  Seeing the bespectacled man unmoved, the burly man gritted his teeth and added another sentence: "Qiangzi, you follow orders. If you die, no matter what the outcome of this battle is, I'll compensate you with five Bloodstain Coins."

  "Five Blood Coins? You value this little brat that much, Brother Li?" The bespectacled man's expression changed greatly, clearly the five Blood Coins had a significant impact on him, and he was no longer as calm and collected as before.

  "It's not about whether you're important or not, but I think if you lure the enemy, our chances of winning this team battle will be higher. For the final victory, I can only take a gamble." The burly man said in a deep voice.

  "Alright! Since Brother Li has such great courage, what can I do even if I die again? Don't worry, this task of luring the enemy out is left to me!" The bespectacled man patted his chest, guaranteeing with great fanfare, seemingly very righteous. However, everyone present had their own thoughts, and if it weren't for those five Blood Coins, he definitely wouldn't have agreed to take on this task.

  It was tacitly understood that no one would be foolish enough to point it out, and after the initial disagreement, Tianhui's side finally reached a consensus and prepared to attack according to Su Hong's suggestion.

  Su Hong was indeed interested in the crude and rough-looking Blood Coin in the big man's mouth, wanting to figure out what it actually was, but with a major battle imminent, he also knew that now wasn't a good time to ask questions.

  According to the plan previously agreed upon, the bespectacled man transformed into a powerful bull and walked onto the middle road battlefield with ease, very carefree and focused on last-hitting minions online, as if he hadn't noticed that all of Nightmares' heroes had disappeared.

  "I'll go kill that stupid cow!" The assassin from Nightmares' lair flashed a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, ready to charge out.

  "Beware of deceit!" The Void Mask's expression turned grave as he reminded, "Earlier on the road, the opposing demon wizard made an unexpected choice, which left me astonished. I have a faint feeling that Tian Hui's people are not acting according to reason, so I don't suggest that the Earth Hole Assassin attack."

  However, the cave assassin who was counter-killed once still held a breath of anger. Now seeing the Earthshaker openly appearing on the mid lane battlefield, it's clear that he didn't put him in his eyes. How could he tolerate this breath, directly launching the big move Ambush, and suddenly rushing out from behind the defensive tower.
