The tanks at the front formed a solid line of defense, while the long-ranged classes in the back threw their AoE skills at the densest concentration of monsters!
Zhang Yang pointed with a Horizontal Sweep. Immediately, 3200 + damage numbers floated up above the heads of all the monsters in the semicircle in front of him. At the same time, he used a Thunderous Strike and another string of -444 numbers rose up! Shockwave was unleashed, and another wave of -444 damage numbers floated up!
In this kind of chaotic battle, all skills were useless. As a tank, he could only firmly stick to his own line of defense and make sure that the monsters couldn't get past him and threaten the people at the back! After all, the number of monsters was like a tidal wave. Who knew how many were densely packed behind them? How many could a tank tank handle? Only the defensive line of all the tanks could block it!
But not all the players stood in front of the NPC army. The monster horde was blocked by Desert Dust and Enraged Beauty, but in many other directions, they directly charged in front of the NPC army and began a fierce battle with the NPC army.
The sounds of battle split the sky. The first large-scale battle in Divine Miracle had finally begun!
With a Level 50 Gold-grade weapon, the Dragontooth Battle Axe, a full set of top-tier Silver-grade equipment, and Hawkeye, which reduced Armor by 50%, Zhang Yang's damage was terrifying even though he was a tank! In particular, his sweeping attacks could easily bring up a wave of 3200 + values. A critical hit would be 6400 +, and a lucky hit would be 9600 +. Everyone around him was dumbfounded by what they saw!
This … Was this still a f * cking Fighter?
Tanks usually had one AoE skill, Fighters had Thunderous Strike, and Guardian Knights had Consecration. There was also a skill called "Shield Stab," which could only be activated when they were hit.
As for Zhang Yang, apart from Thunderous Strike, he also had two other AoE skills, Horizontal Sweep and Shockwave!
In this kind of battle, tanks were constantly being beaten up. How could they not have enough rage? As long as their skills were off cooldown, they could use their skills as if they were free! Just a Horizontal Sweep alone was enough for Zhang Yang to compete with Mages and Hunters in terms of AoE damage. With Thunderous Strike and Shockwave, he far surpassed them and became the player with the highest DPS on the battlefield. His contribution ranking shot up to first place, leaving the second place in the dust!
— — Contribution Points were based on the amount of damage and healing they received. However, in order to take care of the Tank profession, when the system calculated the Tank's Contribution Value, it would multiply the original Damage Value by a parameter to make up for the Tank's low Damage Value!
But what did low damage have to do with publicity? This guy's damage output was as ferocious as a bomber, blasting out damage like a nuclear bomb. How could his contribution not be high?
The tanks on both sides of Zhang Yang were rather depressed because they realized that the monsters standing in front of them did not pay any attention to them at all. All of them were bombarding Zhang Yang! The purpose of their existence was to maintain the line of defense and prevent the monsters from surrounding Zhang Yang or bypassing them to attack the damage dealers and healers at the back!
The Void Guard's basic damage was around 1,000 points. When it landed on Zhang Yang, his Armor was deducted, and he had a 20% passive damage reduction. Finally, his equipment absorbed 450 points of damage. In an instant, his damage was reduced to around 10 to 20 points! At the same time, at most ten monsters could attack Zhang Yang directly. When the damage landed on his body, it was like a tickle.
This was the power of a tank! If it were not for the three tank equipment that absorbed damage, Zhang Yang would receive an additional 450 points of damage every time he attacked. The combined attacks of more than ten monsters was not a joke!
Only when the Void Guards appeared did Zhang Yang have to take them seriously. However, these Elite monsters were very few in number. One of them could only deal around 800 points of damage to Zhang Yang. Han Yingxue casually cast a Recovery Spell and took care of it!
However, after all, not everyone was as well-equipped as Zhang Yang. He also had a royal super healer behind him. Not long after the battle began, the tanks at the front died one after another. Some Void Guards suddenly rushed into the crowd!
The Violent Warriors, Bandits, and Punishment Paladins finally had a place to use their skills. They immediately rushed forward and attacked! Although there were no tanks to pull the monsters' aggro, a good girl could not stand up to a good man. Even if it was an Elite Grade Void Guard, it only had 100,000 HP. When surrounded by more than ten damage dealers, it would die in less than ten seconds. It could not kill anyone at all!
The NPC army at the back was not just for show. Zhang Yang and the others were at the front. The monsters standing there would not attract the NPC's aggro. However, once they crossed this line of defense, these soldiers would immediately attack the monsters that crossed the line, helping the players to clear the monsters.
The number of monsters was like a tide. After killing a batch, a new batch would appear. It was as if there was no end to it. However, at the same time, this endless number of monsters also provided the players with a large amount of experience points. Golden light constantly appeared on the players' bodies, especially those who were only Level 20 or 30. The players who came to make up the numbers were absolutely thrilled!
While giving out experience points, the monsters also frequently dropped equipment after they died. Although the 10% drop rate of small monsters was not too high, there were a lot of monsters. Suddenly, the ground was littered with Black Iron grade equipment. There were even many Bronze grade equipment among them!
However, because the front was full of monsters, no one dared to rush out to pick up the equipment. They could only pick up the scattered equipment that had fallen in the players' camp.
50 minutes later.
"Ding! The leader of the first wave of monsters, Bakra, has appeared! "
Following the system notification, a giant Void Walker over 50 meters tall appeared on the battlefield. The small monsters had also stopped spawning.
[Bakra] (Silver Leader, Demon)
Level: 51
Health Points: 10,000,000
Armor: 600
"F * ck, a mere Silver grade boss actually has 10,000,000 Health Points? Moreover, 600 Armor, how are we supposed to fight against that? Fat Bro is wearing a full set of Level 40 Silver grade equipment, which only has a base damage of 1200-1400. Doesn't that mean that 50% of the damage is reduced? "After seeing the boss's attributes, Fatty Han suddenly cried out.
Zhang Yang laughed and said, "That's normal! Look at how many people we have here. If we don't have a lot of Health Points and thick HP, wouldn't we be able to kill the boss in two or three hits? "
Fatty Han thought about it and agreed. There were at least 2 million players on the battlefield! Of course, it was impossible for all of them to hit the boss. However, as long as there were 100 or 200 players who could hit the boss, then killing the boss would still be very fast!
"Low Health Warriors, let's go and steal the boss!" Wei Yan'er shouted excitedly.
"We haven't killed all the small monsters yet. We can't rush out even if we want to. Let's see which direction the boss goes!" Zhang Yang unleashed another Destructive Strike. This time, it was a critical hit and instantly killed a Void Guard with full Health Points!
The boss's movement speed was not fast. It took a long time to cover the 500-meter distance. The Blue Fatty that was blocking the players' way was almost cleared. Instantly, many players were already shouting, "Kill the boss!" and rushed out.
Seeing that there were many people in his camp who were eager to try, Zhang Yang immediately said in the guild channel, "Don't be rash. The boss that appears in this kind of large-scale battle is definitely very fierce. Don't go and die! Take this opportunity to quickly pick up the equipment that belongs to us! "
As if to prove Zhang Yang's words, the players who rushed out had already entered the boss's aggro field of vision. This similarly blue fat demon immediately pressed down with its right hand. Instantly, a huge black hole appeared where the players were most concentrated.
-4000！- 4000！- 4000！ Every two seconds, a damage number appeared above the heads of the players in the black hole area. In an instant, dozens of players were killed! The players who were still rushing forward suddenly stopped and immediately turned back. Their faces were ashen as they ran away.
However, the boss, which was initially slow, immediately became agile. It quickly caught up with the players and pressed its large hands down. One black hole after another appeared. In just a few moments, it had killed all the players who had rushed out.
The players who were still at the back were secretly relieved. If they rushed out, they would definitely die! Everyone took this opportunity to run out and pick up the equipment that had dropped on the ground. After a long time, the monster corpses and equipment would disappear!
In an instant, the scattered players didn't dare to advance at all. None of the big guilds were willing to stand out! Firstly, this boss was too ferocious. The weaker guilds might not be able to take it down. Secondly, they had already reached a consensus in yesterday's meeting. The boss itself would decide which guild it belonged to.
Very quickly, the results were out. Bakra had broken through the defensive line of the Lingtian guild.
The guild leader of the Lingtian guild, the Dwarf Shield Warrior Wu Tian, immediately led more than 20 well-equipped tanks out to pull Bakra's aggro. At the back, there were dozens of healers who were healing them. After a few seconds, Wu Tian had already stabilized the boss' aggro. The ranged professions of the Lingtian guild immediately began to deal damage. None of the melee professions attacked. Clearly, they were guarding against the black hole that the boss threw out. That area of effect skill was too painful!
However, this boss's Armor was as high as 600 points, and its Magic Resistance was also quite shocking. Although it had Five Shards on it, a Level 45 player wearing Level 40 Bronze equipment could only deal around 500 damage. The damage was reduced by about 40%!
Players with this level and equipment were the most representative of the entire player base. After all, players who had Level 30 and Level 40 Silver equipment were too few!
90%, 80% … Bakra's Health Points were too high. Even though he was surrounded by hundreds of players, the rate at which his Health Points decreased was still very slow. Although this boss' aggro was being pulled by Wu Tian, he refused to stay still. From time to time, he would throw black holes into the crowd. As long as the people were standing close together, there would definitely be people who couldn't dodge in time and would be instantly killed!
When Bakra's Health Points dropped to 30%, at least a few hundred players from the Lingtian guild had died. However, if nothing unexpected happened, this boss would be Lingtian's! (To be continued.
