Episode 231 Battle begins
“No premise, no progress, no theory. No logic. In the end, they can’t overcome the accumulated results.”
Lehmann said with a grin.
Was it because it was something that Lehmann, who was already an expert in his field, said?
No, if you think about it, that wasn’t the case.
After all, the fact that it has continued to produce results means that there was something that was producing results that we have not yet figured out.
Because it simply meant that we ‘saw it, but did not discover it’.
Meanwhile, Kim Seong-jun, who knows Lehmann, did not stop at just being impressed, but asked Lehmann directly.
“That is certainly true. But I can sense a strong sense of conviction in the way you speak. Did Lee Chang-hyun give you any specific advice on how to do it?”
“… … .”
Coach Lee Jong-gyu was surprised by Kim Seong-jun’s reaction.
If you think about it, it was because Chang-Hyeon had passed on the top secret strategy to the investor, Lehman, as Kim Sung-Jun said, and because he showed such strong trust, it made sense.
In a situation where everyone is pessimistic, it is clear that there is no other way to show such confidence.
‘Then, the way to win this situation is… … .’
Coach Lee Jong-gyu and Lim Seong-tae, who had such thoughts, were gradually finding their energy.
I could hear Lehmann’s laughter.
Hahaha.
“What would I know? How to win? That’s for the guy who has to fight himself to figure out. What do I have to say?”
Well, that’s not possible.
Lee Jong-gyu only said things that made people excited, so I started to hate Lehman for making me feel uneasy.

Meanwhile, while PER and LTD were laughing in the waiting room, each talking about how their team had won, the game continued.
LTD and PER, rather than standing still, began to move with cautious steps, each leaving the respawn area.
And for the commentators watching it, it was nerve-racking.
[Caster: Ahhh… … Player Lee Yeon-ju! If you go back and turn the corner, you’ll come face to face with LTD’s player Ah-hyun one-on-one. Moving towards her is no different from throwing yourself into a trap!]
The end to the end of the intricate 3D maze. The match was bound to be exciting for the commentators who knew who the closest other person was.
Of course, that doesn’t mean that the situation will necessarily lead to a one-on-one confrontation with the enemy.
[Caster: But the closest player to Lee Yeon-ju and Ah-hyun is Kim Yu-hyeon, who is on the same team! If they notice that they are close to each other and join forces, the PER could end up being 2 to 1, and they could end up attacking Ah-hyun together!]
Because it was a maze, because I was lost, because I didn’t know who I would fight and what kind of encounters I would have. I couldn’t even see an inch ahead of me.
Of course, there were already places where battles had taken place.
The spearman who started off in a bad position, getting eaten up by LTD players right from the respawn location. It was Lee Seong-tae.
[Commentator: This is what’s scary about this ‘Dimensional Maze’. Basically, the higher the weight class, the more advantageous it is, but it’s common for 1 vs. 2, 2 vs. 1 situations to be created like this. Lee Seong-tae! LTD’s Lee Garam and Lee Ji-hoon are coming together to attack!! It’s a crisis!]
***
‘Tsk… … .’
Lee Seong-tae bit his lip. It was a maze map, so he couldn’t escape or move to the side. It was a map like that, but he started off surrounded by enemies like this.
It’s not like I’ve never played 2v1s as a forward in my previous team, but when my opponent was LTD, and they were two with such good team compositions, I couldn’t help but be at a disadvantage.
“Igaram! Get in!”
I thought I was taking a short break after being pushed around so relentlessly, but then I heard that damn LTD’s Lee Ji-hoon yelling again.
At the same time, a transparent film covered Igaram, who was running towards me with a gauntlet.
Lee Ji-hoon’s proud supporting ability was a fluid barrier.
‘A shield that blocks strong damage without hindering the user’s movements… ‘
It was a perfect supporting ability for Igaram, who jumps in and throws a punch.
Even in a 1-on-1 fight, he wasn’t an easy opponent, and with a guy like that attached to him, the more we fought in a war of attrition, the more wounds I ended up getting.
From the beginning, the combination of Lee Garam, who properly performed the role of an infighter in close range in LTD, and Lee Ji-hoon, who could prevent a single wound if he put his mind to it and cared for him, was considered the strongest duo in 2v2.
‘Even if we meet, why do we have to meet in this combination?’
I tried to dazzle Igaram’s fists with the spear, but it was really useless.
An unreasonable fight where only one side can take damage.
‘If this continues, we will lose… … .’
A sense of crisis came over me.
Of course, somewhere on the other side of the maze, two PERs might be chomping at the bit to beat one LTD team member, but aside from Lee Seong-tae himself, I can’t think of a combination that’s as strong as the two PERs combined.
After all, there was no chance of being swept away in the maze with a 2 vs. 2 score.
“haha…….”
As the minor wounds piled up and I was out of breath, I was gradually growing tired of the two people’s joint attacks.
Something flew behind Isungtae with a cool breeze.
‘This…….’
***
Meanwhile, unlike the tense situation on the Lee Seong-tae side, there were also some relaxed parts on the PER side.
“Oh, Lee Yeon-ju. I joined with Han Ji-soo. If I can join, I’ll try to join you.”
LTD wasn’t the only place I met my teammates while wandering around and joined forces.
Ryu Jae-jun and Han Ji-soo met while walking around not long after starting.
The regrettable thing is that we never fought as a duo because our abilities didn’t match up particularly well.
Han Ji-soo was good at providing appropriate support to anyone with her gravity ability, but she didn’t have a specialized ability that could give wings to someone.
“By the way, Ryu Jae-jun. If you look at the performance coordinates, you’re close to Kim Yu-hyun, so you said you’d like to join, right?”
“Yes. It’s a complicated maze, so I’m not sure if it’s possible. I’ll try.”
“Then Chang-Hyeon will take care of it… … It seems like the five of them have been roughly confirmed. Did Yoon Han-Gyeol and Lee Seong-Tae not say anything?”
“uh.”
In fact, Han Ji-soo also noticed it before the game started.
It was going to be a pretty unfavorable fight. But it hasn’t even been that long since the match started, and already two people have lost contact?

What this meant was simple. If you’re in the middle of a battle and suddenly become distracted by something else, you can turn it off, or you’ve already been turned off.
But it’s probably not the latter.
‘The only thing I can believe is… … that they’re both guys who excel at interpersonal combat.’
It was fortunate that they weren’t the type of guys who would fall down easily.
“If there are two of us, we won’t be at a great disadvantage even if we encounter the enemy. Let’s move quickly without hiding our presence and join forces.”
Han Ji-soo suggested it to Ryu Jae-jun first, and the two began to move as he nodded as if he knew.
Aim for the coordinate location that Lee Yeon-ju, who has weak personal power, had called out.
But the bite came faster than I thought.
I thought that I could see the advantage of numerical superiority in most cases.
Is this because it is a map with many variables?
“Where are you going like that?”
Large and small meteorites flew at an incredible speed toward Ryu Jae-jun and Han Ji-soo, who were running quickly.
‘This…….’
I remembered the time of the practice match. At that time, I was in the underground parking lot of the apartment, so I could only feel the power. It was a meteor attack that I could pass over almost without being hit.
Of course, since the place was a maze, it lacked the grandeur and impact of a giant meteorite, but it was still threatening.
Fortunately, there was another guy on this side who was just as strong, so it wasn’t a problem.
Woohoo -.
As Ryu Jae-jun stretched out his hand towards the large and small meteorites and the [wave] swept through them, the meteorites collapsed, lost their strength, and fell.
‘I always say that it’s much more convenient than my gravity powers.’
Of course, it has its pros and cons, but it would be a lie to say that I’m not jealous.
‘… … So, if he was alone, he wouldn’t have attacked the two passing by. Two?’
As expected, LTD’s Minjeong was standing next to Oh Jeheon, who had fired the meteorite, with a frown on her face.
“Why are you shooting something so small? Who would get hit then? Just drip drip drip drip. And not even someone with urinary problems. Sigh.”
“You’re stuck in a maze, so how can you summon something so big and shoot it? If you have a brain, think about it. You’re talking nonsense yourself, even though you’re called an idiot.”
“Ugh. That’s why you’re the main battery of this team, but you’re not trusted. Of course, you have to find a way to make that possible while maintaining your destructive power. This won’t work. That won’t work. You’re not a trainee or anything.”
Minjeong continued to grumble and curse at her teammate Oh Jeheon, as if she was sensitive, but she did not stay still.
‘That guy’s ability is… … .’
“Well, at least it helps.”
As Minjeong placed her hand on the ground, the numerous pieces of meteorite that Ryu Jaejun had shattered began to transform into doll-like shapes, as if she had activated her ability using mana.
Soon after, numerous dolls stood in front of Minjeong, each holding a weapon.
“Let’s quickly clean up and go.”
We, who were in front of Minjeong, blurted out words without thinking, as if we didn’t care at all.
Ryu Jae-jun looked dumbfounded and shocked, but it didn’t end there.
Team voices could be heard from the earphones that had not yet been turned off and were exchanging information.
“That… … I met up with Yu-Hyeon, but the other person is chasing me! For now, if we can go that way, we’ll find a way and go!”
Lee Yeon-ju, who was relatively weak, joined up with Kim Yu-hyeon, but it seemed like she was running away from the opponent’s attack.
‘This fight… is it okay like this?’
***
The sound of PER team members talking to each other continued to be heard through Lee Chang-hyun’s earphones.
Judging by the urgent sounds, it seemed like a fierce fight had begun between them.
Since we were inside a maze anyway, and it was a bit far away, I didn’t say anything because I wanted them to make their own choices on the spot rather than giving orders.
I thought that this time, it would be a battle where we could truly see the true worth of our team members.
‘By the way, what are the commentators talking about? 2 vs. 2 vs. 1? 2 vs. 2 vs. 2? The battlefield is split into three or four parts with simultaneous battles taking place!! Is that what they’re talking about?’
In that case, it would depend on how well the duo’s team chemistry was, but in the end, it felt like it would come down to a battle between each team’s weight classes.
‘They say our team members have gotten stronger, but honestly, I don’t know if we can win… ‘
Well, actually, it wasn’t just you who had an unclear battle outcome.
“How did you find me? Is there a way to find my way through this maze that I don’t know about, sir?”
I had expected it to some extent, based on Mana’s movements.
Because Kang Jun-hyeok appeared before my eyes.
“well.”
