Episode 172. Ability Battle (1)
The youngest contestant.
In fact, because it was a competition of pride between team leaders, it was an event that could have significantly different treatment within the team for the youngest members who participated.
But that’s it.
In the future, there will be competition on a small scale with other members of Triunfo’s team, and on a large scale, there will be competition with all hunters in the New Continent.
To win the competition with them, you must leave your unique abilities as special moves. This is because the moment the enemy knows, the unique ability can no longer play the role of a hidden card.
In such a situation, why did Juan bother to reveal his unique abilities?
‘Because this is not my real ability!’
In fact, there is a separate ‘real’ unique ability that Juan actually possesses.
The Sunlight skill he has shown now is only a small fragment compared to his true ability.
Although the ark of ability is the same, there is a huge difference in all aspects, including power and effectiveness.
‘Are you crazy? Am I going to show everything I have in this simple game of team leaders?’
The fact that he revealed the fragment called Sunlight was based on careful calculation.
After showing ‘fragments’ rather than ‘the real thing’, they assert the justification that since I have revealed it, you should also reveal it now.
It’s okay for Juan not to reveal the ‘real’ information, but on the other hand, it’s good to be able to pressure potential competitors to reveal their abilities.
From Juan’s point of view, this is a business with nothing to lose.
‘I don’t know about anyone else, but Luca, I definitely need to see what this cheap bastard is capable of!’
Juan’s gaze was fixed on Luca, who had returned to the ‘Recovery Fountain’.
The biggest rival in his life, Luca. If you find out that guy’s unique ability, there will be no better harvest than this.
“Now, when everyone is ready, quickly run towards the dragon nest!”
With his eyes fixed on Luca, Juan shouted to everyone.
“And don’t forget that anyone with soul left must buy ‘Wizard’s Veil’ first! “I don’t need to explain why you should buy it!”
Everyone nodded as if they understood what he said.
※ Wizard’s Curtain
Defensive Traits
– Price 1000 souls
– Magic defense increases by 50 and you take 25% less damage from elemental attacks such as fire, ice, and electricity. Immune to status ailments caused by elemental attacks.
Originally, it was a counter attribute to the ‘elemental attack attribute’ that can be purchased at the game store.
However, due to the existence of Arlovski on the enemy team, it has become an attribute that the blue team must purchase first.
– I bought it.
– me too.
– There were just 1,000 souls.
Everyone, including Luca, responded that they had purchased it. Luca, who did not respond, checked the status window and saw that he had also purchased the ‘Wizard’s Veil’.
“Okay, let’s go!”
All of the other team members followed Juan, who immediately turned around and ran.
Luca was running at the back.
Luca, who had been silent since a while ago, couldn’t be seen because of his helmet, but he was actually shaking his head with a very distraught expression.
‘What should I do… ? Ha, damn it. What should I do… .’
I kept repeating the same words to myself.
* * *
– what?
That time.
Among the red team players who returned around the same time, Hans, a player from team 5, let out a surprised voice.
– Enemy teams are gathering at the dragon’s nest?
At those words, Jinseong Kim checked the minimap.
It was seen that many of the blue team players had reached the ward near the dragon nest that had been placed nearby just in case.
“… “I’m thinking of turning it around with a team hit.”
Kim Jin-seong immediately understood the intention.
The idea was that if the red team moved to stop the blue team, they would turn the situation around by winning a teamfight using the Juan range skill shown earlier.
“But that doesn’t mean we can just give the dragon away.”
According to the PD, every time a dragon is captured, the team is permanently given a very good buff that can ‘turn the game around’.
If Jinseong Kim is fighting alone, it doesn’t matter whether there are buffs or not, but this is a team fight.
For the red team, which has many team members weaker than Kim Jin-seong, it is better to take this permanent buff at all costs.
“We will also go to the dragon’s nest. “Everyone took a recovery potion, right?”
– yes.
Everyone answered at the same time.
Earlier, I instructed everyone to purchase one skill at a time to prepare for a full range of skills, and it just so happened that it would be of great help during teamfights.
“You can take it a little later, right before the teamfight begins. Teamfights will happen 100%, so brace yourself.”
– Is it a good idea to purchase the Wizard’s Veil trait?
Kim Jin-seong shook his head in response to Dante’s question.
“It’s a bit of a waste to buy the Wizard’s Tent just for that one skill. “I don’t know what abilities the other Blue Team players have, so let’s check them all out before purchasing them.”
Kim Jin-seong, who spoke up to that point, soon brought up a story he had been thinking about.
“Speaking of which, during this teamfight, other Blue Team players besides Juan might also use their abilities.”
– … … !
“It might be okay if no one used it at all, but now that Juan has used it, there is no guarantee that other players won’t also use it.”
Jinseong Kim continued speaking seriously.
“Then you too will have to use your unique abilities.”
– … … !

“Otherwise, we won’t be able to win in teamfights.”
Kim Jin-seong continued to persuade the red team players, whose eyes widened without an answer.
“So far I have done my best. I also revealed my abilities to the extent of revealing them. From now on, I plan to do anything and everything if my team can win.
But this is a team fight. It is impossible for me to defeat the blue team alone, which includes strong players such as Juan, Luca, and Gian.
“Now that you’ve seen Juan’s ability, you can feel what I’m saying even more.”
– … … .
“Imagine that Luca and Gian reveal their unique abilities here.”
Red team players recall the situation mentioned by Kim Jin-seong.
Without thinking too much about it, the result will 100% result in a crushing defeat for the red team.
“Of course, I know that you are not disclosing your abilities for fear of encountering other enemies in the New Continent in the future.
But think about it carefully. You are already members of Triunfor, the best group that is unrivaled anywhere in the New World.
It’s a strong fence that won’t cause any problems even if your abilities are revealed. “Isn’t that right?”
– … … .
“Please think about it carefully. After revealing your abilities, will you help me lead the red team to victory and receive a lot of attention within Triunfo in the future?
Or will we hide it until the end, lose to the Blue Team, and continue to be overshadowed by Juan and other notable prospects?”
Kim Jin-seong, who continued his long explanation, soon finished it.
“And, no one knows whether a showcase stage as good as this youngest Daejeon, which is being watched by over 10,000 people, will come to us in the future.
Do your best in the present. “I would like to say this for the last time.”
– … … .
“Now, let’s all go to the dragon nest. “I will tell you the details of the operation as we go.”
After finishing speaking, Kim Jin-seong started running toward the dragon nest first, and the rest of the party soon followed him.
The facial expressions of the group members were hard to see because they were covered by helmets, but they all looked the same.
Everyone seemed to be shaking their heads with a worried look on their faces.

[…] Oh, the red team players are all gathered together and moving to the dragon nest. If this is the case, there is a high possibility that the two teams will face each other at the dragon nest, right?]
[It looks like a big teamfight is about to unfold.]
After listening to the broadcaster’s words, the chat speed of the official Internet broadcast began to speed up.
5 vs 5 teamfight.
This is the most exciting battle scene seen in any AOS genre game.
Of course, the 2-on-1 hunt due to Arlovski’s continuous performance and Juan’s amazing ability revealed was worth seeing, but compared to the interest that will be focused on the upcoming 5-on-5 match, the things to see so far were really nothing.
[There’s really a lot at stake in this 5-on-5 teamfight, right?]
[That’s right. If the red team wins, the gap will be even wider than it is now! You will be able to open it.
However, if the blue team wins the teamfight, they can turn around their disadvantage so far in one blow. In fact, there are parts where we are even ahead!]
[More than anything, from the Blue Team’s point of view, it seems most important to kill that big guy, Arlovski, and stop him.]
[you’re right. In the process of winning a teamfight, that Arlovski is a must! You have to catch it. It’s growing so fast!]
In fact, Arlovski, who scored 7 kills, is currently the only one among the 10 players to have purchased ‘Mayer’s Soul Predator’, also called a ‘core trait’.
Of course, due to the nature of the trait, it is difficult to exert great power right now. This is because it is weak at first, but becomes stronger as you get more kills.
What if we win this teamfight, and Arlovski scores a kill and the Soul is stacked on the ‘Mayor’ trait?
From then on, the Blue Team may have no way to stop Arlovski at all.
[On the other hand, the fact that Arlovski alone was too big for the red team could be a handshake in this situation. In fact, except for Arlovski, the growth of other players is not much different from that of the blue team.]
[You made the correct point. In other words, if Arlovski dies here, his growth will stop? At that moment, the advantage that the red team had is completely lost.]
Typically, there is only one person on the team who is good. That’s the red team.
Now, in a way, the Red Team has come to a situation where they have to prevent Arlovski from dying even if the rest of them die.
It was no exaggeration to say that Arlovski was currently walking on a knife edge for the Red Team.
[First of all, what do you think of the teamfight structure?]
[hmm… . Certainly, considering the range skill that Juan showed earlier, the blue team looks good. Just being able to raise the stamina of all allies is a huge help in large-scale teamfights.]
[And in fact, the blue team’s individual abilities are much better on average.]
[On the other hand, for the red team, Arlovski must do it. There seems to be no answer unless he creates a variable after getting a lot of kills.]
[But what can Arlovski do on his own in a 5-on-5 teamfight?]
[hmm… . Now Arlovski is physically showing the answer to Caster’s question.]
After hearing Daniel’s commentary, Thomas Caster immediately checked the monitor where the mini-map was displayed.
At the same time, my eyes widened.
[…] Ah, Arlovski has moved to the top! Everyone is in the dragon’s nest, and I’m pushing the tower alone!]
* * *
– Juan! Arlovski… !
“know! “I saw it, me too!”
Team 10 player Juan nervously cuts off Chano’s report.
Juan gritted his teeth as he looked at Arlovski, who had appeared alone in the top lane and was clearing out mini monsters.
“pup… ! Taking advantage of the fact that I can teleport alone… !”
Currently, the cooldown of the ‘Teleportation’ skill has not returned for all members of the Blue Team.
Arlovski was now taking full advantage of the situation.
If a teamfight is about to start, you can use teleportation and return to the dragon nest.
‘There’s still 20 seconds left… !’
20 seconds is enough time for Arlovski to push through the entire line and hit the tower alone.
In fact, Arlovski had now run right in front of the red team’s top tower after clearing out all the mini monsters.
