As they chased after Frigid Eagle, Happy's group encountered endless ambushes. This type of battle wasn't too difficult, but it wasn't easy either. Because there were so many people involved, the situation was always more chaotic, and required more coordination from the team.
Of course, this wasn't a problem for Ye Xiu and the others. Their chase was pretty smooth. Winter Eagle's ambushes were wiped out one by one. After wiping out four ambushes, the path finally came to an end. Winter Eagle rushed into a courtyard at the end of the path.
Everyone saw that this was probably where the final battle was going to take place. Because they were always in battle mode, there wasn't much time to rest. Things like eating and resting could only be done when they weren't in battle mode. But if they ran away and left the battle, according to the game's settings, everything they had done since encountering Winter Eagle would be considered a failure, and they would have to start all over again.
Of course, they couldn't make such a low-level mistake. The ten of them rushed into the courtyard, and as expected, elite troops came out of every room. But this time, it didn't look like Winter Eagle's ambush. The Boss was frantically shouting and yelling. It was obvious that after the four ambushes were wiped out, he was forced into a dead end. This wave of reinforcements was the one he called for.
But this wave of reinforcements was even stronger than the previous ambush. Twelve Sealed Mountain Bandits came out of the rooms in the courtyard, more than any of the previous ambushes.
But after clearing out the ambushes along the way, Ye Xiu and the others were very used to this kind of scale battle. Among the twelve Sealed Mountain Bandits, there were two healers, and they quickly became the main targets. As for Winter Eagle? At this time, he didn't look for another way out. After flying onto the roof with his broom, he started attacking Happy's group with the other bandits.
But Winter Eagle's actual combat ability wasn't up to his status as a Boss. He wasn't much more of a threat than these bandits. However, the BOSS had a lot more HP than the normal monsters, so Frigid Eagle was left alone. Everyone focused on clearing out the twelve Sealed Mountain Thieves.
Seeing Frigid Eagle's insignificant battle strength, everyone relaxed. After the twelve Sealed Mountain Thieves were dealt with, all they had to deal with was a small soldier with a little more HP. There wasn't much to worry about.
After a chaotic battle, the twelve Sealed Mountain thieves were all killed. Just as everyone was preparing to launch their attacks at Icy Eagle, who was still on the roof, they heard the Military Advisor squeak again. Everyone clearly heard the Military Advisor shout a name: Deputy Chief.
Then, the door to the big room facing the main entrance of the courtyard was pulled open and a burly man walked out. It was actually another BOSS, the vice chief of the village, Bear.
This time, everyone was quite shocked. Even if you, the military advisor, set up another ambush, it would still be easier than directly killing a BOSS. This strong man, who was the vice chief, was definitely not a weakling like Frigid Eagle. After going through five waves of battles, the team hadn't rested at all. Now that they were facing two Bosses, it was easy to imagine the severity of this battle.
Ye Xiu clicked his mouse and looked at Brown Bear's HP. He knew that there was no way they could end this battle quickly. If they did, they wouldn't be able to keep up. They still needed to slow down the pace of the battle and fight for more time.
But what kind of fighting style did Brown Bear have? Could they afford to drag out a slow pace battle of attrition? Looking at his strong build, he probably wasn't like the second Boss, Sand Leopard, who was weak in attack but strong in defense. If he was a powerful fighter, he would have to face more threats in a slow-paced battle. Especially when these two Bosses were fighting side by side. Sand Eagle's battle strength was a bit weak, but that was only in comparison to a Boss. With his long HP bar, it wouldn't be a problem to kill him in a matter of minutes. It was really annoying to have such a sly guy adding to the chaos …
Brown Bear's appearance was really unexpected. Everyone was in the courtyard. They didn't even have time to retreat and let Ye Xiu's Lord Grim test out the Boss's strength.
While everyone was still mulling over the current situation, Brown Bear had already woken up from his sleepy state. He reached behind the door and immediately pulled out a spiked club.
Yes, a mace … It was a weapon that didn't exist in the 24 classes. It was impossible to figure out this guy's battle skills. It wasn't as if a Boss hadn't used such a heavy weapon before.
"Everyone, back off!" The old tactic was to let Ye Xiu test the waters first.
But this time, everyone was in battle mode. They couldn't just back off like that. Sand Eagle, who was standing on the roof, no longer looked like he was hiding his broom in his pants. He held it in his hand and looked like he was ready to enter battle mode. Looking down from above, he waved his hand and threw a Lava Flask.
Ye Xiu's eyes were quick. Lord Grim's Myriad Manifestations Umbrella opened. With a bang, the Lava Flask exploded in midair. Lava sputtered out of the bottle and rained down. It looked like a rain of fire. Even though everyone still had to dodge, it was better than the Lava Flask shattering on the ground and turning the courtyard into a sea of fire.
Wu Chen admired Ye Xiu's skill. When he dropped the lava flask, he also had the same thought. But just as he was sliding the crosshair to aim, a gunshot rang out from the other side.
As for Chen Guo, she didn't need to say anything. When she saw the Lava Flask being thrown, she immediately wanted her Chasing Haze to jump into the air and run away.
The Lava Flask was destroyed, but Frigid Eagle swung his broom again, creating a cloud in the air. The Boss attacked too quickly, and the players who were a distance away from him did not have the time to interrupt him. This time, a Frost Rain was tossed out by him. Blue raindrops fell with snowflakes. Everyone hastily retreated from the cloud.
"Everyone be careful!" Ye Xiu shouted.
Brown Bear finally made his move. With a roar, he grabbed the mace behind his head with both hands and jumped into the yard. He swung the mace in a 180-degree arc. With a loud bang, the mace hit the ground. Everyone's vision was shaken by the tremor of the ground. Those who were in the attack range and hadn't been able to dodge in time were already rolling on the ground.
"It's Collapsing Mountain!" Wei Chen yelled.
"Or maybe it's Earth Shattering Slash," Ye Xiu said.
"Sure enough, it's cheap!" Wei Chen yelled.
"Yes!" Ye Xiu agreed. Using a sword skill with a mace was definitely a cheap move.
"Whirlwind Slash!! Everyone, get out of the courtyard! "Wei Chen saw Brown Bear's attack and made another judgment. Everyone had their characters run out of doors or over walls. In an instant, they flew out of the courtyard like birds and beasts. Then, Brown Bear returned to his room. Sand Eagle stood on the roof and looked around. Then, he turned around and jumped down from the back of the house, disappearing.
"Oh … …" Wei Chen was a bit embarrassed. Clearly, they had left the battle. The battle here was limited to taking place in the courtyard. If this group of people rushed out of the courtyard, they would be considered to have left the battle area. As a result, everything returned to normal. All of their previous efforts had been for nothing.
"At least there's experience, right?" Wei Chen smiled mischievously, trying to get everyone's forgiveness. He hadn't thought of this point and had given the order to leave the courtyard. In the end, a group of people rushed out. The system didn't give them a chance to change their minds and immediately judged them to have left the battle.
"Oh, this isn't bad. When we start again, everyone should pay more attention. We'll have to face two Bosses in the end. You have to control your mana consumption well, "Ye Xiu said.
Everyone nodded.
Five waves of monsters and two Bosses. There was no time for them to take a break. Only a team like theirs would dare to continue challenging the Boss.
"Maybe we shouldn't leave these two for now and go directly to see if we can kill the final Boss?" Wei Chen suggested. In some dungeons, the Bosses before the final Boss weren't necessarily required to be killed. When competing for the dungeon clear record, they would definitely be skipped. In this Sealed Mountain Thief Hideout, it seemed like the Strategist and Second Chief could be skipped. Thus, Wei Chen made this suggestion.
"No need! Killing these two will also give us the First Kill achievement. We'll get the rewards after that! "Ye Xiu said.
"Actually … … I think this battle is a bit difficult. Killing our way through really does consume a lot of energy. I don't know if we can last until the end," Wei Chen said.
"Let's give it a serious try first." Ye Xiu said, "If the situation doesn't look right, we should leave the battle to save our lives. I noticed just now that five people left the battle. Looks like the setting is for at least half of the members to stay in the courtyard."
"Right? I noticed that too," Wei Chen said.
"Heh heh." Ye Xiu chuckled and ignored him. He turned around and called out to everyone, "Everyone, head back. We'll try again. This time, try to slow down a bit to reduce our energy consumption."
Then, the group of ten returned to the place where they'd encountered Frigid Eagle. As expected, the Boss had already returned to the battle post.
"Hey, why don't we try and see if we can stop this guy from running away and kill him right here?" Wei Chen came up with a new idea.
"We can try. Everyone spread out and surround him. " Ye Xiu arranged for everyone to stand in a circle within the aggro range, trapping Frigid Eagle in the center.
"Attack together, including the ranged players. Surround him and kill him!" Ye Xiu ordered. Everyone pounced forward. Frigid Eagle was really decisive. Previously, when Lord Grim rushed forward, he even shot out a magic ray. This time, seeing that there were so many people, he didn't use anything. He just rode on his broom and flew into the sky.
"F * ck, shameless!" Everyone watched as Frigid Eagle flew away. This was because this height was obviously granted by the system. Whether it was a Witch riding a broom or a Mechanic using a Rotor Wing, they couldn't reach this height. This was obviously the system forcing Frigid Eagle to flee. Wu Chen and Chen Guo's Launchers fired two shots from below, but it didn't have much effect.
"Chase after him!" Ye Xiu didn't show any regret. He just led everyone to chase after Frigid Eagle's butt again.
