Playoffs

Georgia braced herself on the desktop and got up, "Get the island ready, I'm going over to check out the 0073 Heresy."

Different from the ordinary heresy stored in the warehouse, heresy number 0073 is an extremely special heresy, it is stored in the center of the Guro Sea under an isolated island, on the island is the branch processing department of the three bureaus, under the island about 3,600 meters in the deep sea, stored in the deep sea, it is this number 0073 this heresy.

To be more precise, number 0073 is not a heretic, but a general term for up to 6 million heretics, including the Golden King, and the largest and most expensive heretic the Heretic Handling Bureau ever housed. Although the Heretic Handling Bureau housed 0073 under the official name of the Golden King, the heretic 0073 actually has another name in the top-secret files of the three bureaus. --The Golden King.

-[The Lost Land of Gold].

In the top-secret archives of the Lost Kingdom of Gold, which only Georgia and Lu Yizhan are allowed to peruse, 0073, the heretic, is described in a single sentence - [More than 16 million tons of gold are stored here.]

[Heretic's current guardian: Georgia, head of the Third Bureau.]

[Purpose of guardianship: It is forbidden for any person to know, to spy, to enter the sunken gold country of Gurolum, to steal, to sell, to cut the gold that has not yet awakened.]

"Yes Captain!" The team saluted and obeyed.

Georgia walks out of the office door, looks back at the teaser letter left on the desk with a complicated look, and finally turns away, his tone cold:

"On the day of the tournament, the three bureaus will be under emergency martial law, prohibiting any suspicious persons from approaching the branch processing department of the three bureaus on the Gurokai Sea, and special force may be used if necessary."

"Kill this thief who came to provoke."

Game, Vagabond Circus.

Wang Shun took a deep breath, glancing at the information he had just handed out in front of all of them, "You all must be wondering why this time, instead of electronic information, it's such heavy paper information."

"It's because our first enemy in the playoffs, Golden Dawn, has one of the tightest secrecy systems in the game, and it's very difficult for me to probe the thoughts of the members inside, and after the tough probing, I don't know what skills they're utilizing, which leads to me not being able to ship this probed information electronically or in skill form, I can only document it in text. "

"But with text, the probing method becomes very inflexible and easy to detect, the information that can be recorded in text is very limited, Golden Dawn is worthy of being the most tightly guarded guild, the few times I went to probe, I was detected." Wang Shun bitterly waved the text in his hand, the greenish-blackness under his eyes was obvious, "That's why I didn't get much information this time, everyone will have to go up and scout on their own, sorry."

Bai Liu smiles and waves the text in his hand, "The thickness, it doesn't look like limited intel, it's hard to tell if we'll be able to read it before we get on."

Being joked by Bai Liu, Wang Shun couldn't hold back his laughter and loosened up a bit, "With Mu Ke here, you won't fail to remember."

Wang Shun collects his expression and begins to explain, "First, to go over the basic rules of the playoffs with everyone."

"There are eight teams in the playoffs and there are three games - eight to four, four to two and the final."

"Although it's also a draw, the rules of the draw are different from both the preseason and the Challenge, it's not random, but rather it's divided according to the current team's point standings, ranked from high to low, with the first to fourth place drawing the fourth through the eighth, in other words, that means that the playoffs are all about the high versus the low."

"We won against King's Guild, but we're not in the top of the standings, being eighth, so we're out of the draw for the entire playoffs."

"This may be bad news for the average newbie guild, but for our guild-"

Wang Shun laughed helplessly as he looked to Bai Liu, who innocently spread his hands and replied with a smile, "It's a happy event."

"Yes." Wang Shun nodded sighingly, "So I was long relieved to see that the team that drew us was Golden Dawn."

"Golden Dawn is the third ranked guild at the moment, and their tactical style isn't exactly strong, so I had thought that this would be one of the easiest matches we've had in recent memory."

"But only I thought."

Wang Shun nodded at the information in his hand:

"You can see my summary of Golden Dawn's tactical style from previous years, before I learned that Golden Dawn is a team somewhat similar to the King's Guild, with good defense and secrecy, and a less powerful offense, but this year, just as the King's Guild introduced Sister Phoebe to address their lack of a primary offense, they introduced Armand. "

Wang Shun tapped on the system panel, and Armand's face popped up on the system panel. Wang Shun looked down and flipped through the information while tapping on the system panel to explain:

"It looks like Armand, like Phoebe, is a control position player and hasn't been as impressive as Phoebe in the midseason, which is why he's a highly popular rookie ......"

"It's because of this face, right?" Bai Liu asked calmly in return, propping up his jaw.

"Yes." Wang Shun nodded, "Back then the Golden Dawn President Georgia was the same way, he was always popular and controversial because of his very refined and noble appearance, but after that his strong skills and outstanding competition performance broke the many controversies surrounding him, but now Armand isn't so lucky, he's just a newcomer and already a quite a few players mocking him as a vase."

"Not surprising." Bai Liu looked at the panel thoughtfully, "Armand and that president called Georgia, their looks and temperament give me a very extravagant feeling, like aristocrats of very good birth, but usually, this innate sense of nobility makes some people extremely sought-after while at the same time making some people extremely loathed. "

"- like gold."

"Other than that, do you know anything about the skills of the players in this guild?" Bai Liu asked as he closed the information.

"This part of the intelligence, it's much less." Wang Shun smiled bitterly, "Georgia this president and tactician's skill is a golden leaf bow, the skill is related to time, but the specifics are unknown, some of the veteran players I still know some, such as their guild's perennial ace player - Kris. "

Wang Shun tapped the system panel, and a woman with brown hair and brown pupils and a dark profile popped up on the panel.

"She's better known to me because every year the best [Shield] bit player is chosen between Titan and Kris from the King's Guild, and I used to ask around about this player named Kris under the Queen's orders." Wang Shun turned to look at everyone, "Her skill is the only one I know the most about, it's called [Non-Newton Fluid]."

"This skill summons a white fluid barrier that stands in front of your team members to block all offensive behavior - this barrier is judged so strictly that even if you don't perform an offensive act as long as you have an offensive mind, you still won't be able to pass through the [non Newton fluid] barrier."

"And the most troublesome aspect of this skill is-"

Wang Shun sighs, "This skill has no cd and can be used across the board."

Tang Er hit subconsciously frowned - this was simply a skill that specialized in kiting gun-type main attackers.

"Holy shit!" Mu Sicheng also heard his scalp tighten, "All common, how can this be played?!"

"This skill originally has a cd." Wang Shun also had a big headache, "But after Georgia, the captain's skill, is paired with Kris, it can eliminate the cd indefinitely, and he can keep reversing the time on Kris to make Kris go back to the point in time when the skill hadn't been used yet, and finally make the skill have no cd."

"And Georgia, the captain, has skills that work with every member of the team."

"So you're about to face a team whose entire staff has no skill cd time."

Mu Sicheng's blood pressure rose as he listened, his temples jutting out, "The entire staff doesn't have a CD?!"

What kind of fight is that! The time they wait for the cd the opponent will be able to grind them to death with unlimited openings!

"Yes, Georgia has reversed the attitude of all the viewers who didn't think much of him at that time by his absolutely dominant performance in the control position." Wang Shun let out a long sigh, "Before Phoebe came out of nowhere this year, Georgia was the control match that all the main attackers could only dream of, he was shrewd, calm, elegant, and able to combine the beauty and strength of the battlefield, assisting all the players in the field with his superb precision control."

"In previous years, the only weak point for Golden Dawn has been the lack of a good main attacker, and everyone will be sorry that a superb control like Georgia wasn't paired with a proper main attacker to miss out on the title."

"And this year, they switched out their previous starter for Armand, and everyone assumed that Golden Dawn was dropping the starter and getting ready to play the dual-control position."

"But I used a little bit of special means to get Armand's midseason output numbers and realized that wasn't the case."

Wang Shun flipped over the data in front of him and looked at the data on it with complicated eyes, "Armand's skills on the surface seem to be nothing more than control skills that summon hurricanes and stop the opponent's movement, and it doesn't look like a very strong output in the league, and it's even invisible a lot of the time, so that he can't be found on the battlefield --This really doesn't look like a main offense."

"But did everyone see that? Armand's output data."

Tang Er paused the moment he swept toward that figure, and Wang Shun had mixed feelings, "To be honest, I didn't expect it to be this high."

"Armand's midseason output numbers are actually almost equal to Spades, the top leadoff man, and sure, it has to do with the fact that Against the Gods pressed Spades into action in midseason, but that's pretty scary, and the guy's a rookie."

"What's even more frightening-" Bai Liu raised his eyes to Armand on the panel, "-is that such terrifying output numbers actually not create an overwhelming advantage on the field of play, but rather slowly win in an unassuming manner."

"This tactic is like a butterfly that intentionally hides itself in the middle of a hurricane."

Bai Liu looked down at the profile, his eyes falling on the butterfly resting on his shoulder in Armand's photo: "- disguising himself in such a beautiful and harmless way when he is clearly the culprit who started the hurricane and killed everyone. "

"Is it to get the enemy to let their guard down against themselves when they start a bigger hurricane?"
