Pull together?
Weilan Haifeng didn't even last two hits before he died. At that time, he hadn't even pulled the aggro.
Logically speaking, the others had already entered into battle. As long as Lu Li revived Azure Sea Breeze, they would be able to continue fighting. However, things didn't go as planned. General Drakkisath raised his Blacksword of Shahram and rushed towards Lu Li and the others who hadn't entered into battle yet.
Fine, we'll be annihilated!
"Did you find out how he died?" Lu Li asked.
"I'm a little confused, but I think it's because there were too many monsters. It seems like the boss gave me some kind of skill, and then my armor dropped a lot. The monsters killed me after a few hits," said Weilan Haifeng, who had successfully completed his quest.
"Why don't we try again?" the Wander said maliciously.
"There's no need for that at the moment. At least we know that we can't pull all of them together." Although Lu Li was still a little confused, he had a rough idea based on his vague memory of the black market strategies.
"You mean to split up the two Main Tanks? I don't think the Boss will be that honest. This guy looks very smart," Wander said.
"Of course. Mengmeng, come here." Lu Li waved at her.
The little hunter immediately ran over with a smile. Her face was red and she looked very cute.
Canmeng specialized in looting equipment in the team. Because her equipment was top-notch, she was at most a strong fighter. That was all. Normally, important quests would not be given to her. Children always liked to show off. It was rare to have such an opportunity, so naturally, she would be a little excited.
Unfortunately, someone didn't have any pity for the little loli. Lu Li pointed at the boss and said to Canmeng, "Shoot an arrow at the boss, then turn around and run."
Canmeng timidly looked at General Drakkisath, who didn't look amiable at all. After a while, he mustered up his courage and shot an arrow. Then, he turned around and ran for his life.
Silence … All they could do was remain silent, until someone finally couldn't help but call out to Canmeng.
"Mengmeng, you didn't even lock on. You missed!"
Afterwards, Canmeng walked back with her head down. Her arrow was at least 5 yards away from the Boss, and General Drakkisath didn't even look at her.
This was too embarrassing!
After the first embarrassing experience, Canmeng became brave. This time, she saw the Boss take an arrow from her, and then she ran away.
"Stop the monsters. Feng Shao on the left and Wander on the right. Each of you will aggro three monsters." Lu Li saw that the Boss was chasing after the Canmeng. He immediately ordered the Main Tank to aggro the monsters. Lu Li's plan was to kill the monsters separately. Only by killing the monsters would they have a chance of killing the Boss.
In reality, the strategy guide he had read in his previous life stated that a Hunter was required to fight this Boss.
Of course, it was also possible to not bring a Hunter. Anyone could pull the Boss away, but very few classes had the ability to escape at any time. After all, Feign Death was a Hunter's specialty.
As long as the Hunter used Feign Death, the Boss would immediately lose its target.
In theory, there was no such thing as a Boss that liked to whip corpses. If there was, then they could only blame it on their bad luck.
The other classes had a shorter range, and their attack speed wasn't as fast as the Hunters, who specialized in using the Bow. Moreover, they didn't have the Feign Death skill. The Boss would only return after they died, or after a certain amount of time had passed.
After Weilan Haifeng and Wander aggroed the monsters, everyone immediately rushed forward.
"Ah!" Canmeng cried out in pain. Soon, everyone saw the Boss return. A few of the monsters still had a lot of HP left. The result was obvious – they were wiped again.
"What happened? How did you die?" Lu Li asked.
Although he didn't expect to defeat the Boss in one go, it would be meaningless if they were wiped before they even started. According to his plan, it would be best if they could kill one of the monsters and see if it would respawn.
"I ran too fast and accidentally went the wrong way." Canmeng lowered her head, like a primary school student who had done something wrong.
Xiaoba Jiang heard this and immediately gloated. It turned out that her friend also had a bad sense of direction.
Alright, Lu Li was speechless.
Before they started again, Lu Li specially brought Canmeng to plan a roundabout route. He told her where she needed to go, what to do if she encountered danger, and what to do if the Boss turned back.
There was nothing to ask for. No one was perfect, and Lu Li understood that.
He couldn't expect a little girl like Canmeng to be as skilled as the others. After all, her main purpose was to loot equipment. Moreover, Canmeng's damage output wasn't low, and with her pet, her damage output was higher than most people's. However, Canmeng wasn't just a lucky girl. He needed her to take on the responsibility of a qualified Hunter, so Lu Li could only teach her patiently.
A Hunter had a lot of responsibilities. Under normal circumstances, they would be responsible for pulling monsters, luring them, and other tasks that required a lot of flexibility.
In addition, they would also have to set up traps at the right time, control the monsters in times of crisis, and rescue the Healer. Lu Li decided that he would slowly teach these things to the little Hunter.
Canmeng wasn't a delicate girl, so she learned very seriously. After dying a few times, she had already learned how to pull the monsters.
Fortunately, General Drakkisath's movement speed wasn't very fast. It looked like he had lost a leg in a battle. Otherwise, Canmeng wouldn't have been able to grasp the rhythm of pulling the monsters so quickly.
"Alright, let's try to succeed this time. Dreamy, are you sure you're done with your practice?" Lu Li had been following Canmeng's guidance, so the damage output wasn't very good. This time, Lu Li let Canmeng run alone. He wanted to participate in the damage output of the monsters.
"I promise I'll complete the mission!" Canmeng shook her fist and shot an arrow at the Boss' thigh.
"Reckless." Although General Drakkisath was very intelligent, he still foolishly chased after her, leaving his subordinates in the command hall to be tortured by the players.
"Memories, use Bloodlust. Everyone, go all out!" Lu Li shouted.
His heart sank a little. These six monsters had too much HP. If he remembered correctly, General Drakkisath would only chase after them for five minutes at most. After five minutes, even if Canmeng didn't feign death, he would still run back to join the battle.
Five minutes and six monsters. It didn't seem difficult at all.
But what if each of the monsters had 600,000 HP?
Lu Li once again realized that General Drakkisath was probably a Boss that hadn't been castrated yet. Perhaps the game would make this Boss less difficult in the future, but before that, Lu Li and the others had to face such a difficult situation.
Just as he expected, Canmeng urgently reported General Drakkisath's situation.
This guy chased Canmeng for five minutes before returning. No matter how many arrows Canmeng shot at him, it was useless. He quickly appeared in front of Lu Li and the others. Then, he used Ignite. Those who were hit by Ignite almost completely lost their armor and quickly fell to the attacks of the monsters.
At this time, not even two-thirds of the monsters' HP had been reduced.
This was the result after Lu Li ordered everyone to go all out. This meant that it was impossible for Lu Li and the others to kill the monsters in such a short period of time.
However, no one was discouraged. If something like a First Clear was too easy, then the game really wouldn't be challenging.
"Dreamy, don't shoot the Boss this time. Shoot the monsters and pull them away. Feng Shao, you'll use Taunt on the Boss. Pay attention to the angle, don't Taunt the monsters."
Lu Li quickly came up with a new plan. He wanted Canmeng to pull the monsters away.
Obviously … it wouldn't work!
The Boss could be pulled away, so they could walk around the Instance Dungeon as they pleased. However, the small monsters couldn't. They wouldn't even leave the Great Hall. When they reached the entrance, they would immediately turn around and return. Their range of activity was fixed by the System, which was this Great Hall.
As such, Lu Li's plan failed.
Afterwards, he came up with a few more plans. Although they all had a certain degree of feasibility, there was no hope of victory.
"Perhaps this Instance Dungeon isn't something we can deal with right now," Wander said. Ruling Sword couldn't beat it, and any other club wouldn't be able to either. Moreover, Lu Li's various plans today had opened his eyes. He felt that there was no one in Dawnlight who was stronger than Lu Li.
"No matter which plan it is, our attack power isn't quite enough, unless we can get a full set of Epic equipment," Lu Li mused.
"How about we gather some? Let's go to Drizzle Court and Peerless City. We'll give Rend's guide to them. They probably won't refuse to lend us equipment. Moreover, there are some people in our guild who are wearing Epic equipment. If we borrow them, it shouldn't be too difficult," Fei Houzi said.
"It's too much of a rush. There's also a familiarization period for new equipment. That's too much of a waste of time," Lu Li said, then paused for a moment before continuing, "But Big Brother, you should contact Three Bro and ask him to calculate the Epic equipment in the guild. If there's a need, you can borrow it first.
"There's no point in this kind of guide. After all, even if we defeat the Boss, the elite groups won't be able to farm equipment on a large scale," Wander said.
What he said made a lot of sense. Different levels, different classes, and different combat standards. Even if a walkthrough was placed in front of others, they might not be able to clear the dungeon. After all, the method of gathering equipment and forcefully killing the dungeon was too violent. There was no technique involved.
