The top guilds did not clear the area, as they knew that these low-leveled players were just cannon fodder. A single snort from the boss would be enough to wipe them all out!
Cannon fodder, of course, would not be enough.
As countless people waited and anticipated, the Undead Army finally arrived!
However, when the players saw the size of the Undead Army, they could not help but be shocked. No wonder this was a main quest. No wonder the system would automatically give out quests to players who had reached a certain level!
Millions? Tens of millions?
Countless skeleton soldiers swarmed over from all over the mountains. Unlike the skeletons in the cemetery, these skeleton soldiers were all fully armed. They wore pitch-black armor, which formed a sharp contrast with the white skeletons.
[Skeleton Ambusher] (Normal, Undead)
Level: 180
Health Points: 117504
Armor: 4740
Close Combat Attack: 24147 - 34147
Skills:
[Powerful Strike]: Deals 100% melee attack damage to the target, and has a 10% chance of dealing additional damage.
Note: The Skeleton Ambusher was a true member of the Undead Army. Although they were the lowest level of soldiers, they still possessed terrifying lethality! The most terrifying thing was that these soldiers were not afraid of death and did not know pain. On the battlefield, they could make any commander tremble in fear.
Peng! Peng! Peng!
In the middle of these Skeleton Soldiers, there was a white skeleton that was at least 100 meters tall. It was also fully armored and held a huge sword in its hand. The sword was even longer than the huge skeleton, at least 200 meters long. Its attack range was definitely very wide.
[Skeleton General Mattoon] (Earth Divine Leader, Undead)
Level: 185
Health Points: 5 billion
Armor: 50000
Magic Resistance: 50000
Close Combat Attack: 149465 - 209465
Skills:
[Bladestorm]: Deals 100% of melee damage per second to all targets within melee range, lasts for 30 seconds.
[Destructive Strike]: Deals 150% melee attack damage to the target, and reduces healing received by the target by 50%.
[Undead's Tenacity]: Recovers 1% HP every 30 seconds. This recovery is not affected by any effects.
Note: Matthaven is a capable subordinate of Ankhs. He loyally carries out Ankhs' every order.
Five billion HP!
The high-level players felt a headache when they saw the Boss's HP. Without Tenacity of the Undead, no matter how high the Boss's HP was, it would die eventually. But with Tenacity of the Undead, it was a different story.
Five billion Health Points could regenerate 1.67 million Health Points per second. If the players could not deal enough damage to the Boss, it meant that the Boss would never lose any Health Points. Looking at the number of players present, this number did not seem difficult to achieve. However, do not forget that the Boss still had an AoE skill, Bladestorm.
Aside from the engine rate of Bladestorm, it could deal around 5,000,000 damage during the duration of one use. Although the skill was said to be a melee attack, the boss's blade was 200 meters long. Naturally, the attack range was also 200 meters. The efficiency of clearing the area was not too high!
That way, the players' damage to the Boss would be very limited. If the frequency of Bladestorm was a little higher, it would not matter even if the players were transformed. Almost 200,000 Health Points would be deducted every second, and 40 million Health Points would be gone in 200 seconds!
After Han Ying Xue's transformation, she could heal up to this extent. However, even though she was a Cleric who was good at healing, she could only protect three people at most. Any more than that and it would be beyond her limits. It would be extremely difficult to deal damage while facing the boss's firepower.
Of course, things were not as bad as they thought. They had the help of a powerful NPC.
[Green Dragon Alfinis] (Earth Holy Tier Leader, Dragon)
Level: 180
Health Points: 100,000,000
Armor: 18470
Melee Attack Power: 149398 - 209398 (Physical Attack, but causes Fire Damage)
Skills:
[Light of Life]: Regenerates 1% Health Points every 5 seconds for 30 seconds.
Note: Green Dragons are Dragons that are close to nature. They have a good relationship with the Elven race. Some Green Dragons have even become the Elven race's protectors.
Alfinis could hold off Magwene's attacks very well. Moreover, she could also heal herself, healing 200,000 Health Points per second. Even with the debuff from Destructive Strike, she could still heal 100,000 Health Points per second! As long as she could kill the Skeleton Soldiers, even without the players to heal her, she could still hold off Magwene's attacks for a long time.
"Undead, why are you trespassing on my territory?" Alfinis transformed into an Elf girl and floated in the air as she shouted at Magwene.
"Hahaha, I am here on the orders of my master, Ankhs, to claim your heart!" Magwene laughed strangely.
"How dare you!" Alfinis shouted angrily as she transformed into her Dragon form. She was a 300-meter-long Green Dragon. Judging by her size, she was even stronger than Magwene! She opened her mouth and spat out a 200-meter-long green flame that instantly burned the Skeleton Soldiers in front of her into ashes!
In comparison, even the Phoenix and Red Dragon Pets that had transformed only had a range of 30 meters. They were not on the same level as the boss! This was normal. After all, even if the players had an Illusionary Equipment set, they could not compare to the boss.
"Hahaha, kill her!" Magwene gave the order to charge. In an instant, countless Skeletons swarmed towards Alfinis like a tidal wave. Although they were only cannon fodder, they were the same as the players. Even if each monster could only deal 1 damage, the damage would accumulate to a terrifying amount!
From this point of view, the boss's single-target attacks were quite limited. The players still had to rely on their minions to deal damage. However, the boss was much more powerful when it came to area of effect damage. When Bladestorm was activated, the players with low Health Points would definitely be killed instantly!
Naturally, the players would not allow Alfinis to be killed by these monsters. If that happened, it would be even more difficult to defeat the boss later on! Anyway, being killed by the monsters would only cause them to lose some equipment durability. This was the first time that the players in the eight major regions did not attack each other. Instead, they worked together to fight against the Undead!
This was also in line with the background of the game. Although the Alliance was not very harmonious and there would often be civil wars, they had reached a consensus to fight against the Undead and demons. They would not rebel against each other at this time.
In the eyes of an expert like Zhang Yang, the Normal Skeleton Soldiers could not withstand a single blow. However, to the majority of the players, they were not easy to deal with! This was especially so for the players who had not reached Level 150. There was a level suppression when fighting these Skeleton Soldiers. Usually, it would take a whole team to kill one!
Zhang Yang sent out his Phoenix Pet, led by Hundred Shots One Middle School and Fatty Han. The combination of the Phoenix and Dragon was very good at killing the monsters. They did not even need to transform. Under the crossfire, the monsters would die no matter how many came.
"Undead, get out of my territory!" Although Alfinis was a female Dragon, she had a bad temper. She took the initiative to attack Magwene.
"Hahaha, are you in such a hurry to die?" Magwene raised his sword and slashed at Alfinis. There was a flash of cold light. The Green Dragon used its huge claws to block the attack, creating a series of sparks.
"Insignificant strength!" Magwene said disdainfully. He clenched his fists and his huge body spun rapidly like a silver spinning top.
Bladestorm!
All the players within the attack range of the boss would receive a damage number every second. Almost 200,000 damage was enough to kill anyone below the level of a Dark Spiritual Weapon! However, even if they had a full set of Earth Holy Weapons, they would not be able to withstand all the damage from Bladestorm. A few more hits would be enough to kill them!
After 30 seconds, there were no other players within 200 meters of the boss except for Alfinis!
Zhang Yang and the others had not activated their Inheritance Transformation yet because they did not know how long this battle would last! Although the players in the eight regions were fighting together, that was because killing the monsters and fighting the boss would reward them with Honor Points. Once the boss died, the battle for the spoils of war would definitely ignite the eight regions!
The players carefully avoided the Boss and started killing the small monsters. Although Honor Points were not very useful to the experts, the faster they killed the monsters, the safer the Green Dragon would be. The Green Dragon was a huge meat shield for the boss!
Moreover, as long as the Green Dragon did not die, the boss would not leave the battle. There would be a chance to kill the boss! Otherwise, the boss would use Bladestorm to clear the area. If there were no players on the boss's aggro list, it would leave the battle and recover its Health Points in a few hits. How were they supposed to fight then?
Although Zhang Yang did not transform, his Phoenix Pet was an AoE killing machine. The combination of two Phoenixes and one Dragon was unstoppable. In just a few minutes, at least a few hundred monsters had been killed by the trio! Unfortunately, the large amount of Experience Points had to be shared with Han Ying Xue and the others.
Wei Yan'er, the saboteur, took the Elemental Bombs that Hundred Bullets High School had just made and kept throwing them in all directions. Not only were the monsters battered by the explosions, but the players in the other seven zones were also caught in the crossfire!
It could not be helped. Although the various regions could form an alliance, objectively, this kind of alliance was not allowed by the system. Naturally, the AOE damage would be affected.
The battle instantly entered a white-hot stage. Dazzling skills came one after another. It was a spectacular sight!
Compared to the monsters who were limited by the aggro system, the players were much more flexible. The Tanks were in front, the Healers were healing, and the damage dealers were attacking. It was orderly. Only the teams of some small guilds were overwhelmed by the tide of monsters.
However, the number of players was not less than the monsters. There were not many people over Level 150. Under the level suppression, they could not deal as much damage as they should! Even so, after half an hour of fierce battle, the sea of skeletons was almost wiped out! (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me.
