Dumbfounded Tonton asked: “Big Stone, you’ve played Elite mode for a while, how do the monsters compare to this?”
Big Stone forced a smile: “They don’t compare, take that giant beast for example, it has at least 50,000 less health, and its charge skill is not as fierce, it could only take half of my health away. Nowhere near as strong as the one we just faced.”
Da Vinci frowned: “You’re the main tank of the second group, you could easily kill small monsters. Wouldn’t the ones participating in the competition be even faster? We still have to fight against Master mode, how can we possibly match that.”
“Missy, you’re oversimplifying it.” Haikuotiankong said with a bitter smile: “Although the carnival tonight is a competition, there will still be other performances on the main stage. Breaking new ground can be tedious, even though Elite mode is essentially guaranteed to pass. But considering the old god’s temperament, it won’t be that easy. After all, it’s just the first wave of monsters in the instance, you can’t tell much from just food foraging.”
“Even if they don’t have a problem with the small monsters in Elite mode, they will definitely be stuck at the boss. So we are not without opportunity. If we take the Elite mode and achieve the first kill, the guilds can achieve it too. It wouldn’t be shocking.” Sister Li explained.
“The key is, Uncle Hai has a team participating as well. Wouldn’t getting the first kill be going against him?” Da Vinci still doubted.
“Young Miss, that’s not accurate. My glorious time in Hua Xia is not even in the top three, let alone among the world. It’s fine to try for the first kill, but the chances are slim. If we really get the first kill in Master mode this time, I would truly owe Prairie Fire a huge favor.”
He said that, but Haikuotiankong still didn’t have much confidence. Getting the first kill in Master mode, easier said than done.
“Enough with this, I’ll allocate the tasks now.” Li Yao frowned and said, “You’ve seen the strength of the Master mode monster, there are five monsters here. Two tanks simply cannot withstand it.”
“So we’re trying to divert some of it. Later, Sister Li will sheep the Magic Warrior on the far left, I will kite another, each of the two tanks will bear one, and then all activate the Fallen Magic Wizard. If anyone has any problems, speak now. If not, everyone get ready.”
Haikuotiankong raised his hand and said, “Are we sure there isn’t a problem with the Fallen Magic Wizard? If not, I can temporarily take it.”
Li Yao shook his head and said, “You’ve seen the attack of the first wave of monsters, you can’t withstand it. The Fallen Magic Wizard only has a fireball, the rest of it summons the Fallen Magic Warrior and resurrects the Fallen Magic Warrior. Later, Shadow Dance and anyone else with a disruption skill, just take turns interrupting its summoning of the Fallen Magic Warrior. Everyone understands? Sister Li, you sheep one first, everyone else get ready.”
Sister Li cast a Polymorph spell and turned one Fallen Magic Warrior into a sheep, then two tanks simultaneously charged and took hold of two monsters.
Li Yao also drew the attention of a Fallen Magic Warrior with an Arcane Shot, and the rest of the damage dealers focused all their firepower on the Fallen Magic Wizard.
The Fallen Magic Warrior screamed and ran towards Li Yao. Li Yao attached a Mark of Death and Concussive Shot on him and ran in the direction he came from.
Li Yao didn’t have to worry about aggro when pulling the monster alone. Li Yao directly used his level ten purple weapon, his damage output was high.
Using the corners of the cavern, he continuously kited the Fallen Magic Warrior in a circle.
However, just two minutes later, startled cries came from the team.
“What happened?” asked Li Yao.
“I was killed instantly.” Da Vinci said.
“I was killed instantly too.” Xiayao said.
“I’m dead too.” The defending Knight also said dejectedly.
Then, several team members reported one after another that they were killed instantly. After a short while, total wipeout.
Li Yao knew it was over. He could run out of the instance, but that would be too demoralising. Everyone else was dead while he was alive. Even though no one would say anything, he didn’t choose to leave after the first wipeout.
“It’s okay, it’s normal to wipeout when pioneering, revive.”
After a while, everyone ran from the graveyard back to the starting point, everyone started munching food to recover health, Li Yao asked: “Tell me, how did we wipeout?”
“I didn’t interrupt my skill correctly, I dragged everyone back.” Shadow Dance lowered his head and said.
“No, this wizard is too cunning. When you kicked it, who would have thought that the monster would stop casting spells, step back and continue casting. It summoned a Fallen Magic Warrior, we can’t resist it.” Dumfounded Tonton said.
“Yes, I messed up too. My coordination with Shadow Dance was off in the beginning and I wasted a control skill.” Fruit Knight also said.
“You don’t need to blame yourselves, it’s normal for a new team to have issues.” Li Yao consoled, and continued: “Like this, Shadow Dance switches to crossbow later. You’ll kite one Fallen Magic Warrior, and I’ll stand in for interrupts. Is that okay?”
“No problem. I am confident in kiting a melee.” Shadow Dance guaranteed.
“Okay, then we buff up, let’s start again.” Li Yao stood up and announced, according to his view, they were content in wiping out a few more times and getting team coordination in place. But they were currently competing against so many strong teams, so he was unwilling to waste time on it.
He wanted to slap those obstructers hard in the face and let them know that he isn’t easily bullied.
Restarting, Shadow Dance took the monster away.
Other damage dealers all focused on the Fallen Magic Wizard. Due to the cavern situation, Fire Hawk still wasn’t useful. Li Yao deployed the Crystal Spider.
Later he also placed three Arrow Towers and started to attack crazily. The aggro of the Fallen Magic Wizard was completely focused on Li Yao.
Each fireball it released was easily dodged by Li Yao. The Crystal Prison by the spider, the Charged Shot after Li Yao’s Bull’s Strength, plus the Sanction Hammer by Fruit Knight, and Li Yao’s race ability, Arcane Torrent, basically guaranteed that the summoning of the Fallen Magic Warrior by the Fallen Magic Wizard was interrupted.
Due to Li Yao’s high damage output, the Fallen Magic Wizard with 100,000 health didn’t last too long and quickly fell.
Then it was simple, without the Fallen Magic Wizard, the remaining warriors couldn’t resurrect after they died and were quickly killed one by one.
Even though they had a lot of health and spent quite a lot of time, they finally got through the second wave of monsters.
“We actually got a level ten Blue Equipment item, a cloth armor that adds intelligence.” Dumbfounded Tonton who was responsible for looting corpses said.
“Those who need it, roll.” Li Yao said.
However, apart from Da Vinci, no one else needed it. After Li Yao asked, he gave the equipment to Da Vinci.
“The fans are saying that there are teams who’ve started to fight the boss, and they’ve already wiped once.” Xiayao said.
“We must speed up too, carry on.”
Li Yao wasn’t too worried. The team moved forward cautiously. After cleaning up more than twenty monsters, Li Yao’s team arrived in front of the first boss.
The burning corpse…
