"Damn it!" Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded. As expected of God's underlings, this was freaking insane … Two waves of magic bombardment from a hundred people against a mere ten, and the effective damage was only 20%.
Just as everyone was in a daze, there was another flash of white light, and the Guardian Army's HP rose again, recovering to 100%.
Immediately after, the Guardian Army raised their shields, spread out in formation, and charged outwards.
Seeing this, the players defending the encircled Guardian Army in the "Hui" formation hurriedly raised their shields and activated the shield formation.
“duang！”
With a loud bang, the Guardian Army's charge was stopped. However, the players didn't have it easy either. Although they outnumbered the Guardian Army by several times and had activated their shield formation, the Guardian Army was just too overpowered. The players' formation was on the verge of collapsing from the impact.
"These crazy fellows." Seeing how tyrannical the Guardian Army was, Wuji could not help but break into a cold sweat.
These Guardian Army were simply all-rounders. Apart from their insane attack and defense attributes, their recovery ability was even more insane than the Holy Priests. If they wanted to destroy them, they could not be given any time to breathe.
Thinking of this, Wuji ordered again, "Continue to attack. Frontliners, pay attention and use Taunt to interrupt their casting, don't let them recover!!"
At this time, the Mages' Chain Lightning had finished its cooldown. At Wuji's command, the Mages threw out a second wave of attacks.
After the attack, the Guardian Army's HP dropped sharply. Raising their shields, they were about to use their recovery skills again when the Shield Warriors took advantage of this gap to raise their middle fingers at the Guardian Army and use Taunt.
The Guardian Army was not a Boss, and the Taunt effect had a strong effect on them. The Guardian Army's recovery skills were immediately interrupted, and Fireball, Lightning, and other spells were smashing into the heads of these tin cans.
Attacking alongside the Mages and Players were the Atlan City NPCs. At first, these fellows were chased like dogs and did not attack the enemy at all. Now that the players' shield formation was blocking the attacks from outside the encirclement, these NPCs began to support the damage output once they were safe.
Although the NPCs were a group of militia that didn't know how to fight in groups, the magical weapons in their hands were insanely powerful. Their scattered support output was almost as good as the players' coordination.
Under the combined attacks of both sides, the ten Knights who had been surrounded were finally annihilated. As for the players' shield formation, due to their initial failure, they also lost more than twenty people under the crossfire of the remaining Guardian Army.
"Change the formation from inside to outside!" Wuji ordered again.
The outer shield formation took a step forward and spread out in a straight line, devouring another ten guardian soldiers. The shield bearers who were originally in the inner circle followed closely behind. They stood back to back to protect the warriors who were originally in the outer circle.
Retract, Chain Lightning, Taunt, Spell Bombardment!
With the experience from the first time, the players cooperated with ease the second time. With the support of the Atlan City NPCs, another wave of the guardian army was wiped out.
Small monsters were small monsters. There were only so many tricks up their sleeves. Even if these fellows knew how to form a formation, once they found a way to break it, the rest would be easier to deal with.
Under the coordination of the "Return" formation commanded by Wuji, the guardian army was nibbled away bit by bit. It didn't take long for all the guardian soldiers to be killed.
System Notification: The defense was successful. Mission completion + 20%. Due to the successful protection of the residents, completion increased by an additional 10%. In five minutes, the God's Punishment Army will launch the third wave of attack.
"There's still a third wave …" Seeing the system notification, everyone's faces were filled with despair.
In the battle just now, although the damage output professions had not suffered many losses, the tank professions had suffered huge losses. Now, all the shield bearers added up to only more than twenty people.
Apart from the loss of more than twenty people in the first wave, everyone's formation became more coordinated. However, the team only had one Cleric, Wuji. Their supplies could not keep up at all. After ten waves, most of the frontline professions had died. This was the true meaning of killing ten thousand enemies with eight thousand casualties.
Of course, none of the players were dissatisfied with this casualty ratio. After all, the guardian army was a Level-60 Saint-type elite monster. Only the players who had truly fought against the guardian army would know how difficult it was to deal with these fellows. Fortunately, Wuji was here to command them. If it had been anyone else, they would have been sent out of the dungeon in one round.
Therefore, at this moment, Moonless Thunder and Thunder God Raging were truly convinced by Wuji.
In the first wave, they had killed a thousand enemies without suffering any casualties. In the second wave, they had fought head-on with an eight to ten casualty ratio. It was no wonder that he could annihilate a thousand with only ten people. This fellow's commanding ability could be described as "commanding troops like a god."
"What do we do next?" Thunder God Raging and Moonless Thunder asked Wuji as if they were holding onto a life-saving straw.
"The front row is gone. It's not going to be easy. Let's take it one step at a time." Wuji sighed.
"You mean, we can't win?" Thunder God Raging asked.
"Nonsense. In this kind of situation, do we still want to win? Right now, the completion rate is 40%. We'll just make do with it. If we can pass and receive the reward, that would be good enough, "Wuji said.
Win? Thunder God Raging really dared to dream … The second wave of attack was already so abnormal. Now, more than half of them had died, and there were even more vicious waves coming up. How could they win?
"Alright …" Although Thunder God Raging was disappointed, he did not have any complaints. After all, it was already good enough that they could fight until this point. If it had been him commanding, he was afraid that they would have been annihilated in the first wave.
At this moment, Wuji received a message from Quanzhen and the others.
"Wuji, what's the situation now? Can we defend? This old fart said that we have to repel the God's Punishment Army before he will give us the quest item, "Mingdu said.
"He said that he might trust you, not give you the quest item," Wang Yu corrected.
When dealing with NPCs, one had to decipher them word by word. Otherwise, one would die without knowing what was going on.
Hearing Wang Yu's words, Wuji thought for a moment and then replied, "That old fart is obviously using us. If we can repel the God's Punishment Army, why would we need the coordinates of the Hidden Lands?"
"That makes sense. What do we do now?" Mingdu asked.
"What else can we do? I've already tried my best. At most, I can buy you some time. As for how to get the quest item, you guys figure it out yourselves. After all, it's not our quest," Wuji replied.
"Yeah, it's not our quest either. We might not even get the reward," the Quanzhen members agreed after hearing Wuji's words.
"I miss your sister!" Mingdu was furious. This group of people didn't have any sense of loyalty.
At this critical moment, Wang Yu was kinder. Seeing that Mingdu was going crazy, he quickly said, "Alright, alright. Stop bullying Old Li. I have an idea."
"Oh? Old Cow, what idea do you have? "Everyone looked at him.
