Arknights, please stop going crazy over the streamer's operators.

"Wait a minute, why is the streamer only managing one channel and ignoring the other?"

"The left side is still empty, a monster is about to spawn!"

"Wait, why did you put another medic on the right side?"

To the surprise of the viewers, Li Ji's order of arranging the operators, except for the initial Vanguard, was completely unexpected.

Even Kiyono didn't expect Li Ji to make such a move, until... he saw the appearance of Silent Texas.

The moment the monsters spawned on the left, Silent Texas's figure slid down diagonally above the red gate.

With a flash of light, two longswords appeared like death itself, blocking the path of the lightly armored guard captain who emerged from the red gate.

Texas's second skill, continuous rain showers.

Upon deployment, it immediately deals 240% spell damage to all surrounding enemies, reduces their spell resistance by -30%, increases their attack power, and transforms their attacks into a double-hit spell damage attack.

The Light Armor Guard Leader, being a typical monster with high defense and low magic resistance, is as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of magic damage.

"He really is a melee mage, dealing such high damage!"

"Did you guys see how she landed and appeared? I'm going to watch the replay ten times before I go to bed tonight!"

"Awesome! That blade of light that landed just missed my heart! Ah, I'm going to die!"

"Secret Technique, Dual Blades Style! This is our black-clad swordsman, Kirito Kazuto."

However, unlike the barrage comments, professionals like Kiyono were in a different state at this moment.

"It has a spell damage ignition skill as soon as it lands... It's definitely short-wheelbase."

Upon seeing Texas's abilities, Qingye sat up straight, his eyes fixed on Texas on the screen, as if trying to find more information.

"A skill that lasts about ten seconds can have such high damage output?"

"However, if the duration is only this long, it will not be enough to stop the subsequent enemies."

However, just as Kiyono uttered those words, Texas, who had killed the first light armored guard leader, flipped backward.

Then another flash of sword light ripped through the sky!

Her health and skill bars seemed to have been reborn from the ashes and returned to full capacity!

"Huh? It's full again! Is it a skill bonus?"

Kiyono rubbed his eyes, looking incredulously at the silent Texas who had 'ignited' the fire again. He had only poked one eye, how could it be full already!

"Does killing monsters reset skills?"

But just as he was trying to refocus his attention to confirm his guess, the Texas god-like figure had already disappeared from the field.

"It's been withdrawn. This skill reset can only be used once?"

Kiyono truly lives up to her reputation as a star operator captain; she's already guessed most of the skill set just by observing some battlefield dynamics.

Moreover, this output is in line with the level of a six-star guard.

Kiyono has also seen some operators with the warrior template who have similar skills, which also involve igniting upon landing and dealing magic damage.

But if it's a Defender, why bring them on during a wave with less pressure and then withdraw them at that time?

Keep in mind that the next wave will be a heavily armored defense team with even stronger defenses.

Just when Kiyono was completely baffled.

The next wave of enemies is coming.

Kiyono suddenly saw... the silent Texas, who had just retreated for maybe ten seconds, reappear on the battlefield.

This caused Kiyono, who was calmly thinking, to momentarily lose focus and his mind went blank.

He just couldn't connect the silent Texas on the field with the executioner.

Kiyono, who had been calmly speculating about the professions, suddenly lost his composure.

"?"

"No, does this redeployment take 20 seconds?"

"This output, how can it be a source of joy?!"

After countless self-questionings, Kiyono took a deep breath, regained his composure, and said to the silent room:

"Don't make any noise, I'm thinking."

Chapter 20: Are you alright?

While Kiyono was still muttering to himself.

The heavy armor squad leader, already clad in thick armor and wielding a riot shield, followed closely behind the light armor squad leader.

They spread out in a fan shape and carefully proceeded along the predetermined route.

However, when faced with the attack from the heavy defense team leader, Li Ji simply dragged the Silent Texas to the enemy's side.

Indigo and crimson light reappeared on the battlefield in less than twenty seconds.

Traditional six-star executioners have a redeployment time of 18 seconds.

But all the operators under Li Ji's command were fully equipped.

This naturally includes potential.

The effect of the four-potential silence Texas is to reduce the deployment time by two seconds from the original time, thus reaching an amazing 16 seconds!

It can truly help you pinpoint the specific area you don't understand.

Even without resetting the skill, you can still deal nearly 40,000 total spell damage during the ten-second continuous rain shower.

If you still don't understand what kind of harm this is, then we have to give a vivid example.

Our beloved Mighty Mr. Jeston only has a pitiful 25,000 HP, and his magic resistance is a terrifying 20!

After Silent Texas finished her combo, Jeston had to write her an IOU that read: "I, Jeston Williams, owe Miss Silent Texas half my life today, and I will repay it in the next life."

If the skills can be reset to restore all health and skill bars, the total damage can reach a terrifying 70,000, enough to take down nearly three Jestons!

Let me give another example.

Even Eyjafjalla's Volcano, the Warlock's Light, only deals a little over 50,000 damage, which is why there's a saying like, "Why does the next top-tier spellcaster have to be a Warlock?"

But precisely because of this, Silent Texas truly lives up to the name of our Arknights' own 'Cherry Bomb'.

This is why Li Ji temporarily abandoned Surtr and chose to remain silent in Texas.

Next, all we need to do is gather another 'spicy pepper' – Kirin R Nightblade.

Let her form a double-drop, double-happy bond with 'Cherry Bomb' Silent Texas.

That means Li Ji won't have to worry about clearing maps for a long time.

Just as Li Ji was envisioning a bright future, many viewers in the live chat finally realized what was happening.

"Wait, it's deployed again in just over ten seconds. Am I seeing things, or is it a bug?"

"Something's not right, something's seriously wrong! How could someone with that kind of output and DPS be a special agent?!"

"This can't be real, right? Nuwa was so unfair when she created humans!"

"Upstairs, she looks like a foreigner. She should be under God's jurisdiction, not Nuwa's."

"It's not fair! It's not fair! It's not fair!!"

"Hahaha, how could there possibly be such an operator? Even if you're Red Mid, you can't fool me!"

The comments section was clearly filled with people who had lost their minds over the operator in front of them, who was so perfect that it was almost impossible to find fault with her.

No matter how crazy outsiders are, the battle in the simulated battlefield continues.

The heavy armored defense team leader continued his advance towards the blue gate, charging towards Texas with his shield in hand.

However, Texas dodged his attack with astonishing speed, and at the same time swung her twin swords, slashing down on his neck with overwhelming force.

The defense team leader stared in horror as he tried to block the fatal blow with his shield, but the blade was too fast, and a deep gash was slashed across his neck. Flames from the blade spread across his wound, and within seconds, the enemy lay dead in a pool of blood.

Seeing this, the surrounding enemies also launched an attack. But just as the first enemy fell, Silent Texas's first passive ability, 'Texas Tradition', was triggered.

A sharp clashing of swords rang out again, two longswords whipping through the air with a terrifying roar, their blue and red blades intertwining and engulfing all the surrounding enemies. Silent Texas, however, moved with the agility of a lone wolf, weaving through the soldiers' encirclement with unparalleled skill, each swing of her sword striking a vital point with deadly precision.

Her twin swords moved with impenetrable speed, like a dazzling storm raging across the battlefield amidst the swirling yellow sand.

……

On the other side of the battlefield, the members of the White Night Hymn team, who had not received any orders, could only rely on their teamwork to resist the attack from the right flank.

Normally, a commander would tell everyone the overall battle situation in the command channel, but Li Ji was like a mute.

If they hadn't been able to hear faint breathing sounds and hear people adjusting their positions over the channel, they would have all gone to check if they needed to perform CPR on Li Ji.

"What... happened over there?"

"I don't know. The enemies over there haven't arrived yet. Could it be... could it be that Texas killed them all by herself!?"

"Stop talking nonsense, the third wave of enemies is coming!"

As the deputy commander of Qingye, Xiao Liang, who was at the forefront, also took on the important task of command. He quickly reminded his teammates not to be distracted and to fight the enemy with all their might.
