Sure enough!
When he compared Lord Grim's previous coordinates to his current one, he found that Lord Grim was heading directly towards the hole in the formation. Judging from the time that the coordinates were sent, it looked as if Lord Grim had changed directions very early on and very decisively. It seemed like he knew that there would be a hole here.
Wind Following Sword hastily messaged any nearby players to fix the hole. Judging by the distance, there was still enough time. However, his sudden dispatch caused another area without anyone there to appear. Based on the direction that Lord Grim was moving towards, Wind Following Sword decided that he should dispatch those who were far away from Lord Grim to fill the gap. That was how the Spinning Spiderweb Formation worked.
But as soon as he had sent out the messages and heaved a sigh of relief, he then discovered that he had received another report of Lord Grim's coordinates. Wind Following Sword checked the report and immediately exploded.
Lord Grim had changed directions again!
He had just given a bunch of orders and now they were all pointless. Lord Grim was currently heading towards the gap they had left after adjusting their positions.
Wind Following Sword couldn't pay attention to anything else but Lord Grim. He hastily sent another round of orders. And this time, in order to fix the gap, he had to adjust even more people, which meant he had to send out more messages. Wind Following Sword hastily moved his hands and increased his hand speed. But instead of using them on playing the game, he used it to type faster. His character stood still in Congee City. He didn't have any time to take even a single step.
In Sin City, Lord Grim continued to advance, rushing forward in a straight line.
No one was more clear on the principles of the Spinning Spiderweb Formation than Ye Xiu. Actually, he didn't know who exactly was giving out the commands, but during his hour of running around, which Chen Guo had assumed he was still searching for Christmas thieves, in reality, Ye Xiu was actually observing his opponents.
After an hour of observing, Ye Xiu understood how many players were on the other side's formation. Every time he saw their positions, he gradually grasped the positions of everyone in the Spinning Spiderweb Formation.
The 24 Excellent Dynasty players and their positions were constantly revolving in Ye Xiu's head. After this, Ye Xiu could predict what his opponents would do with every change in direction he made.
However, he still had to confirm it. After all, if the person executing the formation was different, then the person's habits and adjustments might not follow his predictions. Ye Xiu was especially worried that the other side hadn't learned the formation well. If that was the case, then his carefully made predictions would be thrown off. However, in that case, breaking out of the formation would also be just as easy. If that were the case, he wouldn't need to do anything too technical.
By testing the reactions in the formation for a bit, Ye Xiu discovered that his opponent knew what he was doing. His opponent had already grasped and understood the Spinning Spiderweb Formation extremely well.
But unfortunately, even so, the Spinning Spiderweb Formation wasn't unbeatable. As the creator of the Spinning Spiderweb Formation, even if there weren't any holes, Ye Xiu could create one.
This type of hole couldn't really be considered a hole, but an innate flaw of the Spinning Spiderweb Formation.
This flaw laid in the commander. Because the orders given had to be extremely precise, every time there was a change in direction, the commander had to give almost every character in the formation an order. When the situation changed too quickly, the commander would have a hard time keeping up.
