After Die Mode was activated, each boss would have a special record and be ranked according to the number of people killed and the time taken.
There were no special rewards for Die Mode. They were all random drops from some rare items in the game. For these big shots who had completed eight rounds of the game, most of the items in the game were basically all in their hands. Playing this game was purely for the sake of showing off and increasing their ranking.
However, increasing their ranking was much more important than those items, because the list of first kills and record keepers for each boss would be recorded in a special area of the Fire-Relaying Sacrificial Ground.
It meant that all the players of Dark Souls could look up to these names, which was a supreme honor for many veteran players.
Old Qin and the others came to the entrance of Farron's Undead Squad.
As the organizer, Old Qin drew a special summoning rune on the ground, which could only be seen after Die Mode was activated. The team members could send a team request through this summoning rune. After touching it, they had to be approved by the team leader before they could join the team.
Soon, the other eight team members touched the summoning rune left by Old Qin and entered the main world.
These players also had their own roles and wore different equipment according to their habits.
Old Qin's equipment was a medium shield and a dark sword.
Sun Knight Wang Laji was the same as before. He was a naked man with a two-handed sword on his back.
Gu Sanguang was wearing a full set of Havel armor.
The others had different equipment. Some were naked, some were wearing heavy armor and holding a big shield, and some were wearing light armor and holding a dagger.
If it was a quick kill, the best solution would be to wear the Red Tear Ring and kill the boss with a two-handed sword. However, this was death mode, and it was the pioneering stage. These big bosses did not dare to run around naked.
Everyone only had one life. If they wore heavy armor, they might be able to take one more hit, but if they ran naked, they would probably be killed instantly.
Besides, there was no time limit, which meant that there was no pressure to deal damage. The key was to grind.
Old Qin said, "Okay, everyone, hurry up with enchantments and buffs. Do the next action when you're done."
Soon, the nine of them began to enchant their weapons and take potions. The whole process was quite long. After all, this was an exploration, and they had to gather all the useful buffs.
When everything was ready, these people uniformly made a gesture of praising the sun.
After confirming that everyone was ready, Old Qin entered the White Fog Gate, and the other players automatically entered at the same time.
It was still that familiar cutscene of the hip-hop members slaughtering each other. However, this time, the big shots who had cleared the dungeon were a little nervous. They even recalled the scene of them being taught a lesson by the street dance team when they were still noobs.
The boss battles in Dark Souls were designed to cover a relatively large area. In Receive Death Mode, the area seemed to be even larger. Therefore, when the nine of them entered the area, although it looked crowded, it was actually not that crowded after they spread out.
"I'm coming, I'm coming. No one should slack off, nor should they be greedy, nor should they embarrass themselves. This Boss will probably kill people in two hits. This is a 9-man team. "Old Qin reminded.
Gu Sanguang, who was wearing a set of Havel's armor, was the first to approach. Although the Bosses here had no concept of aggro, they would still prioritize the target closest to them. Only under special circumstances would they use jumping or special skills to attack faraway targets.
It wasn't that these players hadn't thought about rolling around without their shields, but after some analysis, they felt that this plan was too risky. In Die Mode, it was very likely that they wouldn't be able to escape the Boss's attack range even if they used up all of their stamina.
It was better for everyone to do their job and play it safe.
Gu Sanguang raised his Havel's shield and took the lead, while the others scattered around, waiting for an opportunity to attack.
The Boss did not roll and rush towards the players like in Normal Mode. Instead, it moved forward slowly.
Wang Laji was speechless as he carried his two-handed sword. "What a surprise. Is this really a calm Boss? He's quite calm. He's not rash at all. "
The Boss's unhurried attitude made the players feel very annoyed. Everyone knew that in Dark Souls, they had to be prepared if they wanted to play it safe.
Gu Sanguang raised his Havel's shield and took the lead. However, the Boss did not charge straight at him. Instead, it began to circle around him.
"F * ck, is this Boss so smart? I'm shocked. "
The others were dumbfounded. The Boss seemed to be controlled by someone. Wasn't it too sneaky?
In the end, the players were the first to lose their cool. Gu Sanguang raised his shield to force the Boss to move. At the same time, Old Qin circled behind the Boss and wanted to stab it with Backstab.
However, the moment Old Qin slashed with his Darkness Sword, the Boss suddenly leaped into the air and swung its greatsword at two players standing on the other side!
The two players were holding a pair of swords and a greatsword respectively. When they saw the Boss charging towards them, their first reaction was to roll to the side and dodge the attack.
After the Boss hit the ground, it was temporarily stunned. The surrounding players quickly circled behind the Boss and wanted to stab it with Backstab. However, before they could stab it, the Boss actually rolled forward and swung its greatsword at the ground!
Although the players dodged the attack, they could feel that the Boss's attack speed and frequency had increased significantly. Previously, they could easily dodge the Boss's attacks, but now, they had to dodge them with great difficulty.
At this moment, more members of the Undead Squad stood up.
In Team Mode, although these players had much less Health Points than the Boss, it was enough to give the players a headache. According to the Normal Mode, the Red-Eyed Player would pull the Boss's aggro first. Then, the players would attack the Boss and enter the second stage.
In the blink of an eye, there were two more normal Undead players in the arena. Like the Boss, these players would only attack the players and would not kill each other. Only the Red-Eyed Player would attack indiscriminately.
Old Qin was dumbfounded. "I'm shocked. Where are the Red-Eyed Player?"
Logically speaking, a normal player would be followed by a Red-Eyed Player. However, what was the meaning of not killing the Red-Eyed Player?
