Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 88 - 85: Battle Review

Ma Qi nodded with satisfaction: "That’s right. But the value of this fight lies elsewhere. Once they finish reviewing and figure out Josh’s personal skills, we’ll lose those advantages."

He zoomed in on the screen: "We need to focus on analyzing the teamwork between Josh and Yushi."

He looked at the two of them: "Your coordination was excellent, but there are a few points I need to mention.

First, Yushi, you don’t trust Josh enough. When she assists you with positioning, you don’t fully trust your teammate, so you didn’t give your all in the initial attack. Otherwise, the impact would have been greater.

Secondly, Josh, you’re a bit too arrogant. Despite having a healer in the team and enough ability to flank, you didn’t let Yushi take out the healer, nor did you control the healer to cut off their skills, and that’s a huge mistake.

Although you won beautifully in the end, it was only because Angel’s Wings had an overall weak combat strength and were caught off guard by you two. You must be vigilant next time."

Josh and Yushi nodded in unison: "Understood."

Ma Qi queued up the second battle.

The second match was the four of them against the Iron Triangle.

Although the Iron Triangle ranked fifth, they were highly respected.

Aside from the top-ranked Golden Shit Stirrer, ranks two, three, and four were popular teams backed by the nobles, funded heavily but not necessarily strong, relying more on tricks.

However, the fifth-ranked Iron Triangle team was not to be underestimated.

After watching the video.

Ma Qi criticized Yuze: "You clearly didn’t need to waste spiritual power; your self-control is too weak."

Yuze, unapologetic: "You can’t blame me; they broke my hair tie, you all saw it."

Ma Qi’s mouth twitched slightly: "If Josh hadn’t successfully paired with you and helped calm your spiritual power, I wonder what you would have done!"

Yuze grinned: "Coach, you’re wise and foresighted, truly amazing~"

Ma Qi gave him a glare, then seriously told the group: "I’ve already reported this Iron Triangle team to the relevant authorities. It’s highly likely their state is due to drug use, which caused their sudden surge in spiritual power. However, their teamwork is very high-level, and it’s worth learning from."

Josh nodded in agreement; turning a team fight into a solo battle was something she had never seen before.

In team combat, although each person has a role, achieving a seamless perfect coordination is very difficult.

This not only tests the teamwork and rapport but also each individual’s judgment.

No team strategy or combination move can be mechanically inserted; they need to change flexibly based on the actual battle situation.

This "change" requires teammates to judge on their own or adapt based on the lead captain’s strategy changes.

In this process, pauses are unavoidable, even if they are very tiny pauses.

But the Iron Triangle had almost none.

Their team combat synergy seemed as if they shared one big brain, requiring no eye contact, gestures, or hints among them.

Though they fought their individual battles, the impression they gave was like a perfectly cohesive whole, with no gaps or flaws.

If there was a flaw, it was their limited strength.

The weaknesses in spiritual power and combat attributes constrained them.

In contrast, Golden Shit Stirrer is complete opposite; each member, when singled out, is very combat-capable, but due to lack of coordination, they can’t perform well when working together.

Josh’s weapon has a natural control advantage, which can well offset their shortcomings. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

In the past, they had considered finding a control system tactician, but those tacticians’ control could be broken, and the proud members weren’t willing.

When he found Josh, he didn’t have high hopes, didn’t even know her weapon was Control System, let alone that her control was compulsory.

She even paired successfully with Yuze, able to soothe his Spiritual Sea.

This was practically perfect.

Josh seemed tailor-made for their team, making Ma Qi wonder if it was his luck or Golden Shit Stirrer’s turn of fortune.

Ma Qi looked at the youngsters: "You should clearly see your shortcomings in this fight, right? Rob, you first."

Rob embarrassedly rubbed his nose: "We’re always unable to keep up with the captain’s speed, lacking in coordination."

Yushi admitted: "When Iron Triangle approached the captain, we were at a loss, too dull-minded."

Ma Qi played a clip: "Look here."

In the clip, Josh grabbed Yushi, using the momentum to swing the whip with a very cunning arc, wrapping around Yuze to land on Turbo.

Yushi fell silent.

Ma Qi looked at him: "The whip is your own weapon, not someone else’s. But now? Josh uses it better than you. You’ve stayed in your comfort zone too long, and Golden Shit Stirrer’s overall combat power caused both you and others to become complacent, resorting to old tactics!"

All of them lowered their heads in shame.

Ma Qi saw Yuze dozing off in the corner and slammed the table in anger: "All of you, go run drills!"

Yuze startled awake, immediately straightened up: "What’s happening?"

Rob facepalmed: "The coach wants us to go run drills."

"Oh..." Yuze nodded, cleared his throat to wake himself up.

Ma Qi called them back: "Wait! The meeting isn’t over yet, finish the meeting first then run!"

Pain flashed across Yuze’s face as he sat back down.

Ma Qi, seeing Josh looking at their captain, softened his tone: "Josh, don’t pick up bad habits, meetings are serious."

Josh stifled her laughter: "Okay."

Ma Qi asked her: "What are your weapons and skills? How many have you grasped?"

Josh extended her hands: "The weapon is these gloves, which can produce Spider Silk. I currently have two skills, one is Spider Web, the other is Spider Silk Control.

Spider Web requires time on the battlefield to weave in advance. Once the web covers the entire battlefield, I can detect any subtle clues and movement paths instantly and adjust accordingly.

Spider Silk Control primarily involves attaching the silk to others and controlling them by tugging on it. As long as they’re on the web, I can teleport them to any position on the web at will."

While it’s possible to instantly spray some webs to temporarily bind people, the effect is akin to tying them with rope, not exactly a formal skill.

Rob leaned in, eyes wide with curiosity, at the small bunch of delicate silk in her palm: "I knew I saw it last time, it’s so thin!"

Jiang Can pulled a strand, rubbing it in his hand: "The material feels strange, finer than a hair but seemingly very durable?"

Josh nodded: "It’s as thin as a spider’s silk, but due to inheriting traits from the newbie instance’s squid monster, this silk is extraordinarily strong, can stretch indefinitely without breaking, also resistant to water and fire."

Rob leaned in closer, practically cross-eyed: "Not only that, it’s semi-transparent?! It’s already this thin and still semi-transparent! No wonder we couldn’t see what weapon you were using."

Josh smiled: "Moreover, these silks are connected to my senses. Once placed on an opponent, it’s like having a wireless camera. I can deploy 5 at once and retract them anytime."

Ma Qi nodded in approval: "While not having much killing power, it’s a very stealthy control weapon. The more covert a control weapon and skill, the stronger its function. You have high talent, having mastered two skills in such a short time after acquiring the weapon. Very impressive! Keep on understanding more, later you might develop skills with damage potential."

Josh agreed; she even planned to meditate at night to comprehend, to see if she could uncover new skills.

Rob jealously bit his sleeve: "Just like the captain, how come they’re both abnormal, it took me months to learn one skill!"

Ma Qi played the third fight, which was them and the base leader’s final battle in the abandoned city.

Rob voiced confusion: "Isn’t there one missing? The one on the top floor against Code 7 and the other test subjects?"
