Chapter 162.2 The great demon king is still the great demon king. (1/2)
translator: xiin

Once an attack hit, stealth mode would disappear automatically. Soo Chanhee, the anchor who was caught by surprise, completely forgot about using his skills!
Wei Xiao wouldn’t let go of such an opportunity. Although he didn’t have his light arcs yet, as long as he linked up his shadow attacks well, he would still be able to DPS like crazy with no cooldowns!
Soo Chanhee saw that his health was plummeting and quickly switched talents, from shadow thief to light priest.
It was clear that his starting talents included a support talent.
The commentator spoke quickly, “Soo Chanhee picked up some good resources in the early stage. He activated the light priest’s first skill, holy land, and can recover a lot of health with his heals!”
“This is one of the things that makes the big brawl mode special. Players can switch seamlessly between their four starting talents, which is equivalent to each player having 16 skills!”
“Of course, they also have to pick up enough skill points to activate them all. It also means that the players have to be more careful about their choices.”
“It has to be said that Soo Chanhee’s judgement was very correct this time. Instead of putting all the skill points he’d picked up to his shadow thief, he also invested in a healing skill.”
Was that really the right way?

Soo Chanhee had anxiously switched to the light priest, but would he really be able to heal himself?
Wei Xiao’s black eyes flashed slightly, a sliver of a smile appearing at his lips. “Bye bye now.”
Everyone watched as the shadow thief’s figure shook, and he moved into position behind Soo Chanhee, stabbing his blade into his back. Special effects were triggered, and blood spilled. By the time Soo Chanhee turned around, the shadow thief moved with him, attacking him from behind again. Shadow attacks linked with general attacks, and every hit caused critical damage!
Soo Chanhee’s fans were confused, and the live broadcast room scrolling comments were filled with question marks.
But the commentators were clear on the situation. “The light priest’s movement speed is low, and his actions are much slower than the shadow thief’s.”
“Although the light priest has high defense and can recover health, it’s meaningless when faced with the shadow thief’s high DPS!”
“It seems that it was a bad move for Soo Chanhee switching to the light priest.”
Whoever said that the shadow thief had to use light arcs in order to deal damage?
A real shadow thief could stack up fatal damage like crazy!

The flying blade broke through the opponent’s defense, and there was a DPS bonus for attacking from behind. The shadow attacks came continuously, and under these extremely precise and accurate operations, even a light priest that was using its ultimate move and not just ‘holy land’ wouldn’t be able to withstand this damage.
Soo Chanhee quickly switched talents again. This time, he switched to the immortal thief.
The immortal thief was very agile and very suited for escaping.
Unfortunately…

Wei Xiao’s fingers trembled slightly. He suppressed the quiver in his body, and he took away Soo Chanhee’s last sliver of health with his blade.
Zone Announcement: I Like Close The Most killed Soo Chanhee.
The Chinese audience exploded, and the entire venue burst out with a wave of startling cheers.
The contestants were all wearing headphones, but they could still hear the excited screams.
FTW! Close! Quiet!
Badass!!!
First Blood in the global opening game had come from the China competition zone.
The opponent that Close had killed wasn’t a regular lucky player, nor was it an anchor who had more gimmicks than strength, but a star player, Baron, one of the 16 specially invited professional players!
The North American competition zone had also exploded with excitement.

Baron was a famous player from Europe. He was very good at playing jungler and had once smeared Old G all over the ground. He was one of the most hated players in North America.
Oh, Close was another one. Who told him to always abuse Old G until he’d dropped his pants and had to run around naked?
They’d been very happy seeing that Close and Baron had run into each other.
Close had chosen to use the shadow thief talent at the start of the game. He was more pitiful than Wei Xiao was and hadn’t managed to pick up any equipment. He’d only picked up two skill points.
Baron had been quite lucky. Not only had he picked up an iron sword, he’d also obtained three skill points.
The difference between having an extra skill point and iron sword was significant. In a 5v5 situation, it was equivalent to a crushing difference in both farm and level, and it wouldn’t be easy to overcome.
This was especially the case when it came to top players. Their operation level was solid and wouldn’t easily make mistakes.
Additionally, the place where Close was located was really unlucky.
Falling Star Lake was the only underwater zone.

Players had to dive underwater in order to pick up resources. However, not only would diving slow down a player’s movement speed and reaction ability, it would also apply a state of suffocation. Once that state ended, if the player had gone too deep and couldn’t get out of the water in time to breathe again, they would enter a state of continuous health loss.
Countless players had drowned to death in Falling Star Lake while playing in the test servers.
This zone was even worse than the Moonlight Wetland. Generally speaking, very few fights would break out in this zone in the early stages.
However, Close and Baron had run into each other head-on.
There were two skill points flashing and shining at the bottom of the lake. The two of them noticed the skill points at the same time and discovered each other’s presence as they approached.
