"Well …" Yin Lao Er was surprised. "Dugu Jiuqiang's strength is quite average. Their guild's Heavenly Dragon Battle Team is quite powerful … Besides, there's no rule that the guild leader must be stronger than his subordinates. Didn't Wuji lose to us?"
"Oh, that's true. I thought that only Wuji's guild leader was so useless. It turns out that the other guilds are the same."
"…" WuJi's face darkened as he said, "Just you wait!"
As they spoke, Dugu Jiuqiang's team had already stepped into the valley. Wang Yu said, "Aren't we following them?"
Wang Yu had run dungeons many times, so he knew a thing or two about the basic rules of clearing dungeons.
When fighting against these independent monsters, it was always a matter of sending a few people to lure the monsters. Then, the people at the back would follow up and kill them one by one. This way, they could clear the dungeon quickly without messing up the rhythm. It was a very safe and appropriate method.
"There's no rush." Wuji waved his hand. "Look, they're going to be in trouble soon."
"?" Wang Yu was puzzled. "What do you mean?"
The attributes of these skeletons were very low. Dugu Jiuqiang had five people. There was also a so-called number one main tank. If a single skeleton could make them suffer, then they should just give up.
"Hehe." Wuji laughed sinisterly. "Didn't you notice the formation of these monsters?"
"Formation?" Wang Yu was startled. He looked over and immediately noticed something.
These skeletons were not standing randomly. They were standing in a square formation. The warriors were in front, the mages were at the back, and the archers were at the back. It was a standard attack formation …
"This is bad. Aren't they going to die?" Wang Yu was shocked.
The most difficult monsters to deal with in "Rebirth" were these formation monsters. This was because, according to the system settings, all formation monsters would stand in a battle formation.
Once a battle formation was activated by aggro, it would give all the monsters within the formation a Attack and Defense buff. The most disgusting thing was that a battle formation was a single entity. Activating one of the monsters would pull the aggro of all the monsters within the formation … In this way, it was equivalent to stepping on a chain of mines with a buff.
Back in the Holy City, Wang Yu threw firecrackers to lure a group of Judgement Paladins to attack the "Royal Palace". It was because the Judgement Paladins had a formation that they were able to defeat hundreds of players at the Royal Palace.
The skeletons were actually the Sixth Apostle's soldiers. Naturally, the soldiers knew formations …
However, because the skeletons' positions were relatively scattered, coupled with the uneven valleys on both sides, it was difficult to notice that the skeletons were standing in a square formation if one did not look carefully.
Wuji chuckled. "So what if they die? It's none of our business … We're already in the dungeon anyway …"
"…" Wang Yu was speechless. "That's not right. No matter what, they helped us. How can you kill them?"
WuJi said, "He wants to go himself, how can I stop him?"
Wang Yu still wanted to say something, but Nine Solitary Spears and the others had already reached the first Skeleton Warrior. The Thunder God Warrior mocked it, and the Skeleton Warrior raised its shield in one hand and its blade in the other, clattering as it ran towards the five.
Dugu Jiuqiang hid behind the Thunder God Lord. Just as he was about to take out his gun to attack the skeleton warrior, the Thunder God Lord suddenly shouted, "Not good. Retreat!"
Before Nine Solitary Spears could ask what was going on, he saw that all the monsters in front of him had gathered in an orderly fashion. The Skeleton Warriors that were running at the very front had formed a shield formation, and they were only a few meters away from him. At the same time, a sky full of green hellfire and white bone arrows flew in front of the five of them.
"F * ck!" Dugu Jiuqiang and the others felt a chill down their spines when they saw this.
The Thunder God Lord was a famous expert. He raised his shield and blocked the hellfire and bone arrows. Then, he charged into the skeleton warrior's shield formation. Finally, he swung his weapon and turned the shield into a two-handed sword. He leaped up and slashed down. The flames of Earth-splitting Slash knocked all the skeleton warriors within five meters away.
Knockback was the scariest control in the game. The two-second knockback from Earth-splitting Slash scattered the skeleton warriors' formation. Under the cover of the Thunder God Lord, Dugu Jiuqiang and the others took the opportunity to retreat from the canyon.
"F * ck! Is this the" Second Air Chase Slash "?" Yin Lao Er shouted excitedly when he saw the Thunder God Lord's movements.
Shield Raise, Charge, and Earth-splitting Slash were all independent moves. The Shield Raise skill had a long stun time, and the Charge skill had a long prerequisites. Earth-splitting Slash not only had a long prerequisites, but it also had a full second to end the skill after landing on the ground. Moreover, there was a sparring part to it, so it was difficult to combine these three skills into a set.
However, the Thunder God Lord used the Shield Raise skill as the prerequisites for Charge. Then, he leaped into the air and followed up with Earth-splitting Slash. He smoothly combined these three moves into a set. This was the "Second Air Chase Slash" that all shield warriors dreamed of.
Yin Lao Er was a shield warrior and frequented the forums. Naturally, he had heard of this unique skill and seen videos of the Thunder God Lord's Block. However, so far, no shield warrior had been able to perfectly combine these three skills.
Yin Lao Er knew that this was definitely not something that could be achieved with high reflexes. As a retired athlete, Yin Lao Er was very confident in his reflexes. There must be some unknown trick to this skill.
This was also why Yin Lao Er worshipped the Thunder God Lord. After all, others could do things that he couldn't, and that was why he deserved to be respected.
Seeing the Thunder God Lord's movements, Wang Yu's eyes lit up. This Thunder God Lord was obviously much stronger than the so-called pro players that he had met before.
After the Skeleton Warrior was sent flying, the Thunder God Lord saw that Dugu Jiuqiang and the others had retreated. He once again changed his sword into a shield, blocking a wave of long-range attacks. Then, he retreated out of the canyon while fighting. The Thunder God Lord retreated out of the canyon. The skeletons did not chase after him. Instead, they ran back to their original position and stood in formation again.
"F * ck, these monsters are formation monsters. Fortunately, the Thunder God Lord is here. Otherwise, we would be dead …" Dugu Jiuqiang said with lingering fear.
"Hehe, I wonder who said these monsters are trash just now." Seeing Dugu Jiuqiang in such a sorry state, Wuji was in a good mood and laughed at him.
"Yes, these monsters are indeed trash!" After returning to the team, the Thunder God Lord said calmly, "Boss Wuji, you should have seen that these are formation monsters long ago, right?"
"No, I didn't," Wuji said confidently.
"Hmph!" The Thunder God Lord said coldly, "Just pretend that you didn't see it. It seems that you are not very good at using these monsters to harm people."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Yin Lao Er quickly came out to smooth things over. "Boss Thunder God Lord, don't be angry. Our Wuji really didn't see it. Your Double Sky Slash was really cool. Can you teach me?"
The Thunder God Lord looked at Yin Lao Er expressionlessly, then sneered and said, "You think you can?"
