Chapter 407: Chapter 407: Elimination
“Damn you insects, how dare you blaspheme the gods in this way? Drop everything, become my Angel Envoys,” the ancient god, now left with only a third of his health, shouted in anger.
“The mages who were just targeted quickly change position, our victory or defeat hinges on this moment,” Li Yao also quickly added.
Faceless Transformation!
About thirty beams moved towards the players, and the mages swiftly used Blink, voluntarily meeting the beams head on.
“What are you doing?” Li Yao saw a warrior rush forward, using charge to stand in front of the mages and block the beams.
“Boss, it’s not my fault, the master told me….. before he could finish speaking, he was engulfed by a black cocoon.
“I told him to go up and tank it, do you have a problem in your head, with so many tanks on the field, you let the fragile mages block the attack? Are you out of your mind, how could mages possibly endure it,” the old Goblin said mockingly.
“Quick, have two healers keep him up in addition to those assigned.” Li Yao glanced at the elderly Goblin and roared, his carefully planned scheme was being undermined at a critical moment.
The player wrapped in a black cocoon quickly lost health. The assigned healers resiliently healed, but Shield Warrior’s health wasn’t going up at all.
The other healers scrambled to assist, but there was no time. The Shield Warrior died instantly, transformed into a writhing giant egg.
“Damn it, look at the mess you’ve caused.” Li Yao pointed to the black cocoon: “If you don’t understand, keep your mouth shut. This skill drains health proportionally. Tanks have too much health; healers can’t keep up. Mages have less health. The same proportion, less healing pressure. You dumbass, trying to act smart.”
Then…
Just at that moment, the black cocoon burst open, releasing a Faceless One of boss level, also equipped with Divine Armor.
“So what if it’s a Faceless One? The ancient god’s health is already so low, what more can it muster? I only considered everyone’s well-being in case your judgment was wrong and ended up harming us,” the old goblin’s words stirred up agreement from some of the Masters.
“Second Group, tanks pull him to the center, everyone stop attacking the ancient god, switch fire to the Faceless One.” Li Yao wanted to kill him, but there was no time now, he had to continue to command, otherwise all their previous efforts would be wasted.
Most players glared angrily at those Masters. Another player died because of them, but they still obediently followed Li Yao’s orders and focused their attacks on the newly spawned Faceless One.
Only three Masters and a handful of players continued to attack the ancient god.
“Idiot, just send two people to pull his aggro, then kill the ancient god directly. A single Faceless One is nothing,” the old goblin said as he attacked the ancient god.
With Li Yao’s command, there was no reduction in numbers during this time, and the timid goblins also became confident, feeling that the ancient god wasn’t so scary.
Many players were cursing, ‘damn it, if it weren’t for your self-willed actions ignoring Li Yao’s command, this Faceless One wouldn’t have appeared. You’re the stupid one, and now you’re blaming others, unbelievable.’
“Foolish little insects, Divine Envoys never die, you will only feel endless despair.” A black line appeared between the ancient god and the Faceless One.
Shadow Transformation!
Although the Faceless One only had 100,000 health, everyone’s output could cause ten damage, but in the end, the Faceless One still had 60,000 health left.
With the linkage of the black line, everyone saw the ancient god’s health suddenly increase to 60 percent, while the Faceless One only had less than a quarter left, then an explosion occurred.
Li Yao had not anticipated that after the two had exchanged health, the Faceless One would explode, instantly knocking down a dozen rogues who were at the forefront of the attack, and several bulky defense classes were also left in a critical condition.
The healers hurriedly started to heal, but more players were already stunned.
They had worked so hard for so long just to barely kill the ancient god, but now the ancient god’s health had instantly recovered to more than half.
“Ahahaha, foolish mortals, you will never understand the majesty of the gods.” All the tentacles wrapped around its body, not launching any attack.
But those three Masters and a dozen or so players who were attacking the ancient god were stunned.
“See, your stupidity made us all pay the price.” Li Yao suppressed his anger and said: “Those few around the ancient god have been controlled by it. Hear my command, focus fire and kill them.”
“No, I didn’t do it on purpose, I wasn’t controlled by the ancient god.”
“Please, we really weren’t controlled.”
But right now everyone was furious. It was because of them that the ancient god’s health had surged to more than half. And it was because of them that some teammates inexplicably died.
The hatred for them had reached the bone. On hearing Li Yao’s command, no one hesitated, and a storm of attacks quickly came their way.
Those Masters, too, were seeing red. They were inherently cowardly, and now that the ancient god’s health was back, it was unclear if they would just die by accident. Everything could have been avoided, so the Masters began to attack them fiercely.
“Please, I only meant well for everyone else, what if he made a wrong judgment? Who would let a squishy take the hit of an attack? I’m not wrong…” The elderly Goblin was still shouting in discontent.
“That’s for you! Old man, it’s precisely because of you that we almost died…”
“You’re the idiot, if you want to die, don’t drag us into it.”
“I’m not done living yet, you old thing, neither your abilities nor your technique are good; you just like to show off your seniority, if not kill you then who?”
“You’re wrong about that.” Li Yao butted in “They too were heroes. They were up against the ancient god and ended up being controlled by it, thus losing their lives bravely in battle.”
“Yes, captain spoke rightly, they were clearly controlled by the ancient god.”
“Oh, killing my own comrades with my own hands, I can’t bear it.”
“I’ll fight you.” The old goblin charged madly towards Li Yao, wanting to take Li Yao down with him. But by the time he reached Li Yao, he had already been focused down and died.
“I’m not willing…” The old goblin, with his eyes directed at Li Yao, faded away.
“Everyone stick to their positions, let’s stick to the previous formation and calmly deliver our attacks. We’ve already played this once before; we can still defeat it following my commands. As long as you follow my instructions, we can slay the ancient god.”
Li Yao said as he continued to do his actions: “Think about it, this is an avatar of the ancient god, as long as we can return, this would be a great achievement. We’ll become the first batch of mortals to slay the avatar of an ancient god, our heroic deeds will be spread across the land by bards. By that time, we’ll gain fame and fortune, and now, all you need to do is to follow my orders.”
Li Yao’s words boosted everyone’s morale and coupled with the previous incident, those Masters put away their petty thoughts and the players became more cautious.
Under Li Yao’s calm command, the ancient god’s life finally hit rock bottom. Victory was just around the corner; everyone’s hearts rose to their throats, for fear the ancient god would have some other trick up his sleeve…
