Seeing the Death Knight cleverly divide the battlefield, Peng Peng imdiately commanded.
"Good opportunity! Everyone, surround them together!"
Hearing Peng Peng's command, the zombie players imdiately split into two teams and surrounded the two Iron Golems and two villagers.
These Iron Golems and villagers were not a temporary combination; they had fought together for a long ti. They still had tacit understanding with each other.
The villagers knew very well that once the protective formation of the Iron Golems was disrupted, their lives would imdiately be threatened.
The two villagers imdiately took Ender Pearls from their backpacks.
They were about to throw them to the right side of the ravine and join the main force. But they found that the lava in the ravine seed to be manipulated, instantly flowing toward the right side.
In less than 2 seconds, the ground on the right side of the battlefield was filled with lava. Seeing this, the two villagers silently put away the Ender Pearls in their hands.
Clearly, the left side of the battlefield was a bit safer...
The two Iron Golems, seeing this, gave up on joining the three Iron Golems on the right side.
While fighting, they still had to protect the villagers. It was obvious that the players here were easier to deal with than those facing the Death Knight.
They could kill these players first and then move over. The two Iron Golems pushed the villagers behind them and imdiately got ready for battle.
At this mont, the Iron Golems on the right side of the battlefield saw the lava covering the ground and imdiately twisted the villagers up.
The three villagers quickly responded, took buckets from their backpacks, and poured water onto the ground.
Two villagers were fast with their hands, and the mont they poured the water, they quickly returned it to the buckets.
This was experience they had learned while fighting against players.
One villager was about to put the spilled water back but noticed that the Death Knight was charging towards them with a sword.
The Iron Golem twisting him, in order to protect him, hurriedly moved him away.
It was because of this action by the Iron Golem that the villager missed the chance to retrieve the water. Three buckets of water were all poured down, and with a sizzling sound, white mist spread instantly.
The lava beneath them imdiately turned into obsidian upon contact with water.
The three Iron Golems reacted quickly, leaping onto the obsidian.
As the three Iron Golems were about to set the villagers down, they saw that the lava in the ravine surged towards the obsidian flat ground.
At this mont, the Iron Golems and villagers finally understood the Death Knight's intention.
The Death Knight could control the lava, but the lava could be extinguished by water.
The villagers had buckets of water, and as long as they were fast enough in taking the water in and out, the lava couldn't pose any threat to them.
The Death Knight was very clear about how the villagers' water buckets were a restraint on him. That's why he would ambush the villagers when they used their water buckets, trying to exhaust their water.
Once all the water in the villagers' buckets was consud, these Iron Golems would have to fight the Death Knight standing in the lava.
Though their health was thick, they couldn't withstand being in the lava for too long. If they wanted to keep fighting in the lava, they had to protect the villagers, the healers.
If there was lava in the battlefield, the Iron Golems could only twist the villagers with one hand. Or let the villagers lie on their bodies.
In this way, they wouldn't be able to fully engage in battle with the Death Knight.
At this mont, the villagers in their hands were both a lifesaver and a burden limiting their full power.
This was also the crucial reason why the Death Knight could hold off the three Iron Golems. In fact, in terms of raw strength, the Death Knight shouldn't have had much trouble facing two Iron Golems.
But facing three would still be a bit difficult. After all, these three Iron Golems, although not yet fully evolved into the purple tier's power, were very close.
But using this thod, the Iron Golems were concerned and couldn't unleash their full power. Combined, the three Iron Golems only had about one and a half tis the power.
If they wanted to win, they would have to be willing to sacrifice their lives and abandon the villagers.
Clearly, they didn't have the determination to give up their lives for a last-ditch effort.
This was the most important reason why the Death Knight could defeat them.
At this mont, the Iron Golems and villagers on the right side of the battlefield were completely passive. But they weren't helpless either. After realizing the Death Knight's intentions, they quickly adjusted their tactics.
The two villagers still having water in their buckets continued to pour it onto the ground.
Just as the Death Knight was about to attack one of the villagers, the Iron Golem holding the villager without water kept watching the Death Knight's movents.
When he saw the Death Knight's steps shift left, preparing to attack the left villager, the Iron Golem preemptively predicted the Death Knight's direction and arrived in front of the left villager to block.
However, as soon as the Iron Golem landed, the Death Knight suddenly turned right. In one leap, he reached the right villager and thrust his sword toward the villager's face.
The Iron Golem holding the villager on the right had no choice but to turn around to protect the villager. The Iron Golem's sudden shift caused the villager on the right to lose their water bucket again.
At this point, on the right side of the battlefield, only one villager still had water in their bucket.
The left-side villager, seeing the Death Knight hadn't attacked, was about to retrieve the water from their bucket when an enchanted arrow shot from the left battlefield.
The archer was Peng Peng.
Because the battlefield was divided, all three Iron Golems on the right were focused on the Death Knight.
This gave Peng Peng a chance.
Peng Peng organized the zombie players here to hold off the two Iron Golems on the left while observing the battlefield situation.
When he saw the opening on the right battlefield, he quickly drew his bow and decisively attacked.
The arrow pierced through the left Iron Golem's arm and directly hit the villager's arm.
It was Peng Peng's clever shot that caused the three water buckets in the villagers' hands on the right side of the battlefield to be completely drained.
Although the Death Knight hadn't known Peng Peng for long, their cooperation was quite seamless.
Whether it was due to Little Bug or not, this scene was clearly observed by the players watching from the sidelines.
Seeing the Death Knight and Peng Peng's excellent teamwork, the players all praised.
"The Death Knight is giving face, it's really impressive, much better than when HIM appeared, hahaha."
"Indeed, HIM always dominates, though it's cool, it's not as fun to watch~"
"This Death Knight has followed HIM for so long, looks like he's been well influenced, good tactics!"
"Seeing this, I feel a bit moved, the Death Knight doesn't treat the players as tools. Splitting the battlefield and covering the other side with lava is to prevent the zombie players there from getting burned."
"That's right, if he were the type who treats players as tools, he would have just filled the battlefield with lava without thinking!"
"Reminds of when our guild leader fought the villagers and didn't treat us as humans... Damn, would rather follow HIM!"
The more the players watched this battle, the more they felt the imbalance.
Many players in the field were from guilds. When battles happened, the high-ups only considered maximizing their benefits, completely disregarding the lives of the lower-tier players.
The lower-tier players were purely tools.
But the Death Knight didn't do that. Clearly, he knew that filling the battlefield with lava would end the fight faster. But he still separated the battlefield, trying to avoid zombie players standing in the lava.
His relationship with the zombie players was cooperation, not exploitation.
Isn't this much better than those guild leaders who only think about themselves?
The players were discussing when the official fight finally began on both battlefields.
On the right side, since the villagers no longer had any water buckets, the Iron Golems had to stand in the lava to fight the Death Knight.
The three Iron Golems realized the Death Knight was a tough opponent. The three Iron Golems were preparing to adjust their positions and surround the Death Knight, but they saw that the Death Knight attacked first.
He quickly flashed to the closest Iron Golem by the ravine, his left sword slashing toward the villager's face.
The Iron Golem quickly retreated to avoid the Death Knight's attack, but the Death Knight took a step forward and followed up.
A heavy punch struck the Iron Golem's chest. The enormous force sent the Iron Golem back several steps, stumbling and falling into the ravine.
The villager also fell into the ravine with the Iron Golem. After falling, the villager panicked, frantically trying to get blocks from their backpack to climb up. But the ravine was too deep, and they didn't manage to climb up in ti, being lted by the lava.
At this mont, the other two Iron Golems didn't ignore it.
One of them, being close, charged forward and raised an iron shield to smash it at the Death Knight.
The other Iron Golem took the chance to extend its arm and sweep toward the Death Knight's leg.
Seeing this, the Death Knight rolled to dodge the heavy hamr of the Iron Golem. After adjusting his posture, he bounced and attacked the Iron Golem with the extended arm on its shoulder.
As soon as he reached, his left sword slashed toward the Iron Golem's large arm.
The originally tough Iron Golem's arm was as fragile as paper under the Death Knight's blazing sword.
With a loud clang, the shield was completely cut through by the Death Knight. It was a perfect demonstration of "cutting iron like mud."
At this mont, the situation for the Death Knight was already one-sided.
The Iron Golem that had just been pushed into the ravine had climbed up, but it had lost the villager, its healer, and could no longer sustain itself.
Of the remaining two Iron Golems, one had lost an arm, and the other still had to hold the villager.
Only one intact Iron Golem remained.
