Chapter 861 -861: Reversal
The stakes in this match have become astronomical; one might say their value is incalculable.
The audience was already filled with excitement, and the alien players’ arrogant demeanor had enraged countless spectators. Although they were envious and resentful, they did not want to lose this match. Despite hailing from different administrative regions, everyone was united as humans at this moment, and the entire arena echoed with cheers of encouragement.
Within the arena, Jackson executed a roll to deftly avoid the Succubus’s Fascination spell.
The so-called Fascination spell enables temporary control over an opponent’s actions and body. Aside from the Priest’s Mental Control, only a Magician’s Succubus Pet could possess such a spell.
Jackson proved his strength as a contender for the semi-finals. Before he even fully rose from his roll, he used several posture techniques to launch a Charge.
Snap…
Jackson charged headlong into the Demon Guard as if trailing an icy path behind him. Although his dual axes dealt no damage upon impact, the hit surprisingly triggered a freezing effect.
The Demon Guard was instantly frozen in place, eliciting a burst of cheers from the crowd.
“You all should learn from this. Even though it’s the same roll, by adjusting the posture, one can bypass the recovery period when standing up from a roll and directly engage in skills that match the preparatory posture. If used well, the time saved could create an opening. Moreover, many skills are designed this way—you can try them out. In fact, Starfire has already approached this threshold, only it’s still somewhat vague,” Li Yao explained to the Starfire players while watching the match, “You aren’t far behind; just practice well. However, what he did wasn’t perfect yet.”
“The difference may seem small, but when it comes to actual utilization, it becomes substantial,” Knight remarked solemnly.
Tongtong nodded thoughtfully and asked, “That’s already impressive. What could be more perfect?”
Li Yao smiled and said, “If he did a forward roll instead and used the invincibility during the roll to counteract the Charm, that would be better. Who among you can tell me the benefit of that?”
Unparalleled Beauty replied, “I can think of one point. Some skills have a wide range, and you can even simply control some spells to change direction. If a top expert were facing the Succubus and then manipulated the Fascination spell slightly off target, his roll wouldn’t dodge it. But in reality, no one has achieved this yet—of course, besides you, you freak.”
Sister Li also said, “I thought of something too. Rolling forward saves a bit of distance. Although it’s a minimal impact, it could make a crucial difference.”
“Yes, it makes a difference. For a rush-down role, if you can interrupt an opponent’s skill by being just this much earlier, but if you are this instant too late, then the skill has already been cast. Think about this; the match is still promising,” Li Yao said, turning his full attention back to the match.
The Starfire players pondered deeply, with most of the core team looking up to Li Yao with admiration.

They were all too aware that the principle and technique may appear simple, and Li Yao had merely enlightened them with a few words. But without Li Yao’s guidance, they might have needed to explore for a long time by themselves. Understanding what they lacked and then embarking on targeted learning and research, as opposed to a purposeless search, creates a completely different outcome.
In the arena, the moment Jackson performed his Charged Freeze on the Demon, he instantly initiated a second Charge, this time targeting the Succubus.
Though the freeze effect wasn’t triggered, he managed to disrupt the Succubus’s second spell that was about to be cast.
He then launched into a third Charge.
Boom…
Jackson crashed into the Ogre Sorcerer. With the semi-invulnerability state during his triple Charge, he took a Shadow Arrow from the Sorcerer, but the damage was not significant.
This was precisely what Jackson wanted—he was willing to take a hit just to get in close and then deal damage to the alien player.
Moreover, he made a very wise choice. During the second’s stun on his opponent, he didn’t rush to attack; instead, he rolled behind the opponent, successfully evading the attack range of both Demons.
The benefit of this move was that even if the Demon Guard was upgraded and had a second Charge, it wouldn’t reach him without a target to lock onto.
The second was dodging the Succubus’s spell again.
All the spectators let out excited cheers, these aliens were being extremely boisterous, not expecting such a watered-down performance, in their eyes, the short-legged Magician who had been approached was surely doomed.
However, their joy didn’t last long, Jackson’s axe had not yet landed on the Ogre Sorcerer’s body when the Ogre sneered, “Is it useful to control just one of my heads?”
The second head of the Ogre turned around, and two dark beams shot into Jackson’s eyes.
Just as Jackson stood up, a face twisted with fright appeared above his head, and he was experiencing something terrible, of course, psychologically. This was the Demon Warlock’s Fear Technique.
Delaying Curse!
Chaos Arrow!
The crowd then saw a dark glow appearing in one of Jackson’s hands, the light of a curse, while the other hand manifested a twisted skeleton face.
In fact, when Jackson was stricken with fear, he already knew that he had been outmaneuvered. Seeing his opponent cast two spells at once, he knew it was bad news, so he immediately traded his badge to break free from control.
But the Delaying Curse had already taken effect on him, and his movements were extremely slow.
Then the Chaos Arrows were already striking him, the impact of the great force sent Jackson tumbling to the ground.
Soul Extraction!
Chaos Arrow!
Chaos Arrow!
Next came the Succubus’s whip, followed by the charge of the Demon Guards.
Li Yao let out a sigh. In fact, the moment he was hit by the Fear Technique during his charge, his fate was sealed. Whether or not he broke the control, it was a certain death.
Was Jackson strong? Yes, but this Demon Warlock was clearly stronger, and with two heads, two talents of a Magician, and powerful spiritual power, he could achieve complete dual-focus, equivalent to fighting against two people, two perfectly in-sync minds no less.
Of course, this was also the Ogre’s racial talent, having two heads naturally made it the race most adept at dual-focusing.
The crowd, which had been cheering, suddenly fell silent; the turnaround was just too abrupt. Clearly, Jackson was dominating, and victory seemed to be at hand, but the contrast was just too great.
“Trash.” The Ogre Devour Heaven said with both mouths: “Clearly lacking in intelligence.”
The resurrected Jackson’s face turned red, and without uttering a word, he went offline directly, his face burning with embarrassment, he just couldn’t bear to stay.
The Ogre Sorcerer sneered: “Next.”
Gale from Samsin swallowed, finally understanding why the Countess had forbidden him to fight against the Ogre Sorcerer. With such momentum, his short legs probably wouldn’t get him near the opponent, and as tough as he was, he would likely get toyed to death slowly by the enemy.
So he stepped forward and said, “I want to challenge Mocha Dragon Tooth.”…
