However, the more bosses there were, the more benefits they could get. Capitalists would take risks for a 100% or 200% profit. In comparison, if the players died, they would only lose some repair fees. But if they picked up the drops from the bosses, they would earn a lot!
Therefore, after being stunned for a moment, the players became even more excited and fearlessly charged towards the few hundred bosses.
Zhang Yang was stunned by this scene. He could not help but shake his head. As expected, the ignorant were fearless. They did not know how powerful the bosses were, so they were fearless. Their hearts were already filled with huge profits. How could they still think rationally?
But … this was not bad!
Didn't every war start because of greed? Greed was the same as survival. It could allow people to explode with endless battle power!
Hundreds of bosses attacked at the same time. This destructive power was definitely on the level of a nuclear bomb. After every wave of attack, hundreds of thousands of players would die! There was no other way. The AoE damage of the Brother Zhe Mammoths was too terrifying. One stomp could hit thousands of players. These 800 huge monsters filled the entire island.
"Go into the sea! Go into the sea! Spread out as much as possible! Don't stand together! The sea can reduce the attack power of the monsters by at least half! "Zhang Yang flew into the sky and shouted. He made all the players repeat the same words.
Although one or two people's voices were not loud, 40,000 people shouted in unison. After a few repetitions, their voices rang through the sky. It was not any weaker than the monsters!
In a chaotic battle, it was very easy for people to listen to the commands of a certain voice. Suddenly, many people ran into the sea and broke up the formation of the monsters!
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Let's go. We'll look for the scattered bosses!"
Han Ying Xue and the others naturally agreed in unison. While the players could still hold on, they naturally had to kill some bosses. This would not only reduce the pressure of defending the city later, but it would also give them a lot of rewards! The bosses they fought earlier only dropped Silver and Gold Worm Shells. Based on this, the Purple Gold Worm Shells would only drop Purple Gold Worm Shells.
However, the officials had already said that the highest they could exchange for was Purple Gold! In that case, the Xuan Spirit Level Boss would no longer drop the Xuan Spirit Worm Shell, but a Xuan Spirit Weapon!
As a result, Zhang Yang led Desert Dust and the other 27 players on flying mounts into the sky, searching for Ruler Ze Ge.
"Over there!" Sun Xinyu's eyes were sharp. She pointed to the extreme west of the island. There was a Hegemon there who was very far away from the rest of the team. It turned out that he had been pulled out by some players to solo him, but because his equipment and level weren't up to par, he was slaughtered by the boss.
"Quick!"
Zhang Yang hurriedly flew over on his Thunder Eagle. This Xuan Ling Boss was returning to the group. If he allowed it to return to the main group, it would be very difficult to pull it out again.
Xiu!
The Thunder Eagle streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning. Carrying Zhang Yang, it quickly appeared before the Boss.
Zhang Yang immediately followed up with a Spear of Destruction. The Sword of Annihilation tore through the air and sank into the Boss's body. Grayish-Brown blood splattered out as a damage of over -26,000 floated up above the Boss's head.
But almost at the same time, another axe shadow flew over, sinking into the Boss's body. Even though Zhang Yang didn't see the damage, it clearly didn't exceed Zhang Yang's, because the Boss didn't even turn its head, directly charging towards Zhang Yang!
Zhang Yang focused his gaze and saw Light Guild's guild leader, Sword Light, flying over on his mount. Clearly, he had also discovered this piece of fat meat.
Right now, the bigger picture was the most important. It wasn't good to start internal strife! Zhang Yang made a prompt decision and said, "Brother Sword, let's fight the Boss together! The loot that drops later, we'll have priority based on the amount of damage we dealt! If it's an even number, then we'll split it evenly. If it's an odd number, then the side with the highest damage will get an extra item! "
"Okay!" Sword Light naturally wasn't an idiot. He knew that right now wasn't the time for internal strife over a Boss. Plus, he also had a team of nearly 30 people behind him. They weren't any weaker than Desert Dust's team, so he was very confident in their damage output.
The players on both sides split up, each taking up half of the team and immediately began to deal damage.
Even though no one said it out loud, the atmosphere of a contest had already spread out. Neither side was willing to fall behind in damage output! People fought hard, especially the members of the Light Guild. They had been hiding under Desert Dust's shadow all this time. Even if they won this kind of competition, it wouldn't prove anything, but they were all holding back their energy. They wanted to suppress Desert Dust in terms of damage!
It was a very normal Tank Monster. The healer healed, while the others dealt damage.
But not long after they started fighting, Sword Light felt that something wasn't right — he didn't have enough Rage!
This was something he had never encountered before!
He was also startled, but he immediately realized that he hadn't been hit by the Boss even once!
There were two ways for a Warrior to gain Rage. The first was through the damage dealt by normal attacks. The higher the damage, the more Rage would be gained. The second was to take a beating. The more badly you were beaten, the more Rage you would gain.
Successfully blocking could also increase Rage, but the prerequisite was that the Boss had to be attacked. Blood Rage could also generate Rage, but it had a one minute cooldown, so it couldn't be used as a normal source of Rage.
Tanks could only use one-handed weapons, and their equipment was mainly defensive, so their attack power was 30% to 50% lower than Berserkers and Mages with the same level of equipment. As a Tank, the Rage gained from damage was at most 30%. Most of the Rage came from getting beaten up.
After all, there was only one War God Legacy. Zhang Yang was probably the only Tank who could use two-handed weapons!
Sword Light hadn't been hit by the Boss once, so he could only use normal attacks to gain Rage. His weapon wasn't too shabby either. It was a Level 100 Purple Gold – grade axe, and he could gain 30 – 40 Rage with a single swing.
The axe attacked once every 2.8 seconds. In this time, he could use three skills, but one Destructive Strike cost 45 Rage! He had enough Thunderbolt Strike and Armor Break, but he could only use two at most. He couldn't use a third!
Wasting a common skill cooldown meant that he would lose a lot of Rage, and the Boss wouldn't even look at him! This was a vicious cycle. His Rage would only get lower and lower, and the gap between him and the Boss's current target would get bigger and bigger!
Sword Light was getting anxious. The damage output classes were competing, but so was he!
What was a Tank competing for? Of course, it was competing for the Boss's aggro! He quickly threw out a Taunt that didn't require Rage. Normally, a Cryptic Spirit Boss wouldn't be affected by Taunt, but there was no such thing as an absolute. This Ruler of Zerg wasn't immune to Taunt. He decisively turned around and attacked Sword Light.
The Attack Power of a Mysterious Spirit boss was extremely high. With just one attack, it had dealt over 23,000 damage to Blade of Light. In an instant, Blade of Light's rage was off the charts!
He didn't dare to slack off. He hurriedly used his aggro skills on the Boss, trying to stabilize his position as the number one Aggro.
The principle of Taunt was to copy 99% of the Aggro of the monster's current target and force the monster to attack him for 2 seconds.
If Sword Light wanted to keep the Boss's Aggro, he had to make up for this 1% Aggro within 2 seconds. Otherwise, the Boss would still turn back to Zhang Yang after the Taunt ended.
Seeing how desperate he was, Zhang Yang couldn't help but smile. He simply took off his shield and started attacking the Boss purely as a damage output player. Who said that tanks didn't have the heart to deal damage? It was just that he didn't have the chance before. Now that there was a free punching bag willing to take a beating for him, why not?
To Zhang Yang, he had no interest in competing with anyone for the title of the number one Tank in the China server. He was already sitting on the king's seat, looking down on the people behind him. Sword Light wanted to compete with Zhang Yang, but Zhang Yang didn't have the mentality to do so.
Trying to catch up to others, trying to prove that you were better than others, this was the mentality of a weakling.
After the 2 seconds of Taunt ended, Sword Light saw that the Boss didn't turn back to look for Zhang Yang and instantly let out a sigh of relief. However, he looked at the Aggro list. Zhang Yang's Aggro was only a little lower than his, and could be surpassed at any time. Sword Light immediately felt a chill in his heart. He didn't dare to relax, and used all his skills to maximize the Aggro!
He even felt that this was the most stable Aggro he had ever pulled since he entered the game!
In the game, there was a metric called Aggro Per Second (TPS). It was the opposite of Damage Per Second (DPS). DPS was used to measure the standard of the damage output professions, while TPS was used to judge whether a tank was good or bad. Of course, a tank with high TPS might not be a good tank, but a good tank's TPS would definitely not be low.
Sword Light found that his TPS had reached 18,000!
This was a very, very impressive number! This meant that he could pull the Aggro of the damage output professions, who also had 18,000 DPS, and not let them chase after the Boss!
Sword Light was a little smug. One had to know that his equipment should only have a maximum TPS of 12,000, but under the stimulation of Zhang Yang, his Aggro ability had increased by 50%! As expected, only with pressure could one be motivated!
However, this Battle Royal was indeed not an ordinary person!
Sword Light looked at Zhang Yang, who had been following closely behind him in the Aggro list, and was only a thousandth away from him. He could not help but feel emotional! One had to know that Zhang Yang was the same as him previously. He was not getting beaten up, but his Aggro was still following him closely. If the two of them were flipped, he would definitely not be able to do this!
As expected of the title of the number one tank in the China server!
"However, I will definitely surpass you!" Sword Light said in his heart. However, his gaze suddenly went blank. He suddenly realized that Zhang Yang was not equipped with a shield!
What kind of concept was this!
The DPS of a tank was only 50-70% of damage output professions of the same equipment level. They could only obtain higher TPS by relying on Aggro skills. Only then could they pull the aggro. What was a tank? To put it bluntly, it was a shield. This was the symbol of a tank!
All of the skills and attacks, only when equipped with a shield, can gain additional aggro value. In other words, without a shield, a tank was not a tank, but a damage output profession!
However, as a damage output profession, Zhang Yang was still able to closely follow his aggro. Didn't this mean that as long as Zhang Yang wore a shield, Zhang Yang's Aggro could surpass him at any time?
This … He had been so proud of himself for so long, but it turned out that Zhang Yang had no intention of fighting him at all. He was completely playing with himself!
As he thought about it, he could not help but get distracted. His skills suddenly slowed down by half a beat.
Although Zhang Yang was dealing damage, he was not happy at all! Even without Shield Bash, his DPS was still around 25,000. Sword Light's 18,000 TPS made him feel like his hands and feet were tied!
It was not that Sword Light was not good enough. On the contrary, his ability to pull aggro could definitely be ranked as one of the top ten tanks in the China server. However, Zhang Yang had received the Legacy of the God of War. He had gained a 50% increase in Attack Power. In addition to the 12% increase in Strength from the little girl's Brute Force Aura, and the weapon he used was a Level 120 Two-Handed Mystic Spiritual Weapon. In terms of damage output, even Wei Yan'er would have to admit defeat. Currently, a tank without a strong legacy would not be able to pull his aggro!
Zhang Yang was already very restrained. Otherwise, if he had dealt full damage, the boss would have already turned around to look at him!
However, Sword Light's rhythm was suddenly disrupted. Zhang Yang, who was already used to his damage output, used a skill in advance. He was originally fighting with the aggro. Now that he suddenly used a skill, his aggro immediately exceeded Sword Light's.
The boss immediately turned around and swung a huge leg at Zhang Yang to attack.
"F * ck!"
Zhang Yang said in his heart. He quickly equipped his shield at lightning speed and raised it high in front of him to protect himself.
Block!
Sword Light seemed to have woken up from a dream. He gave Zhang Yang an apologetic smile, but he was extremely shocked. Oh my, a tank could have such high damage output. Why would he need to worry about aggro? This guy was the most powerful damage output profession!
"You're using … a two-handed weapon!" Originally, Blade Edge should not have noticed this abnormally obvious problem until now, but because of his preconceived notions, he did not think that tanks could actually use two-handed weapons. He only thought that Zhang Yang's sword was just a little larger in size, but now he finally realized that if it was a one-handed sword, Zhang Yang would not be able to have such high damage output.
"Yup!" Zhang Yang said as he held the boss. In fact, when he was holding a shield, he could also use Block Reflect and Shield Bash, which made his firepower slightly stronger. Moreover, since he was the main aggro of the boss, he naturally did not need to be afraid. With his full strength, his damage immediately soared!
Sword Light could not help but be shocked!
It turned out that Zhang Yang was not in his best condition just now! However, he immediately realized and said, "Your inheritance allows you to use two-handed weapons, and it also increases your damage by a lot?"
"Yes, it increases damage by 50%!" Zhang Yang did not hide it. It would not take long before all the powerful inheritances would be thoroughly researched by the players. He was not afraid of letting the other party know. After all, it was not a big secret. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me.
