Chapter 542: Chapter 542: First Kill?
“Hahaha, this guy’s been stripped bare,” DotDot chuckled.
“Damn you all, you really think you can win like this. Naive,” the Ancient Tree leader said, as a portal appeared next to him.
“Nightstand, you go and pull the monsters.” They could already see the vague outlines of figures appearing through the portal, clearly there were numerous monsters.
“I am the most suitable for AoE pulling.” The Guardian Angel charged straight towards the portal.
Whoosh…
Five Treants came straight out of the portal, all of them were directly taunted by the Guardian Angel.
“Crap, there’s a healing Treant inside.” Shadow Dance Freak identified its attributes right away. “They’re all 3-star Silvers.”
Li Yao furrowed his brow, “Just focus your attacks on the minor monsters.”
The members of Starfire quickly redirected their attacks, and instantly took out the healing Treant.
But after they had killed three Treants, another five came out of the portal.
The crowd quickly took out the healing Treant again, and then another portal appeared next to the Ancient Tree leader.
“Jin Jin, I’ll have the spider tank assist you,” Li Yao said.
“Understood.” It seemed Jin Jin charged straight ahead, blocking in front of the other portal.
“This won’t go on, we can’t eliminate them fast enough,” said the Unparalleled Beauty.
Li Yao nodded and said, “All melee switch to attacking the Ancient Tree leader, ranged attack too.”
“What about these minor monsters?” asked the Guardian Angel.
Li Yao said quickly, “All ranged stay alert. When a monster comes out of the portal, look for my marker. Activate it and stress hit the healing Treant to take them out instantly. Don’t give them a chance to heal.”
The team understood Li Yao’s plan. He was going to brute force it, which wasn’t impossible. After all, the Ancient Tree only had 500,000 HP, not much, really.
Li Yao said quickly, “This plan will test the tanks, let’s see if you’re tough enough.”
With two portals, each time a wave of five Silver Elites appeared, now they only killed the healing Treant, so four were left.
Summoning once approximately every minute, and after a while, Jin Jin and the Guardian Angel were surrounded by a large number of minor monsters.
“DotDot, fire up Bloodlust.”
As Bloodlust was activated, the boss’s HP was dropping like crazy.
But as the number of monsters increased, especially with the addition of more Balanced Treants, many Stormclouds overlapped. No matter how powerful they were, faced with so many concentrated attacks, eventually they would reach their limits.
“I can’t keep it up. I can’t replenish enough health.” Da Vinci was sweating.
“I can’t withstand it anymore.”
The Guardian Angel constantly emitted a large amount of divine lightning from his body, dense and tingling, causing damage to all Treants.
But the lightning on his head was layered too many times to count, and he still couldn’t withstand it. But he wasn’t like Jin Jin, who didn’t resist hard from the start.
He was cornered into a tight spot, he had no choice but to resist.
“Get another healer over there, boss’s HP is down to half now,” said Li Yao, his eyes gleaming.
Everyone with Starfire had to work as hard as they could, dealing as much damage as possible. They all understood very well, if they couldn’t hang in there, all of their efforts would be in vain.
By the time they couldn’t deal with the boss’s second phase, they would probably not even see the Ancient Tree leader.
Smack…
The Guardian Angel fell.
“Battle Res,” Li Yao said.
Instantly, the Guardian Angel was resurrected by a Battle Res. As buff power was added, the Guardian Angel charged ahead again.
Although Jin Jin may not be as sturdy as the Guardian Angel, the benefit of the bear tank is that it has a lot of health and an extremely high dodge rate.
Plus its high mobility, it was still hanging on, despite being in danger.
Of course, as the number of Treants increased, the ground they could cover was gradually shrinking.
It’s impossible for Jin Jin to pull the Treants to the corner of the battlefield because their attacks could hit the attackers, causing a collapse of Starfire’s members.
“You lowly pests, you can never defeat me.” The Ancient Tree leader seemed in a hurry, as his HP was decreasing.
His attacks were constantly blocked by the Fruit Knight. Although the Fruit Knight is small in size, he had consumed dragon meat cooking in the beginning, along with the Winter Springs Firewater from Li Yao.
He had grown a great deal and had become much stronger. Combined with the Reflection Shield, his single target attack was countered by her.
Thud, thud, thud…
The Ancient Tree leader started spraying purple-black toxin. Once the toxin landed, it would corrode an area of about one square meter on the ground.
Anyone who stepped on it would continuously lose health. The Ancient Tree was constantly squeezing their space.
They would be attacked by Treants on both sides. In the middle, due to the continuous spray of toxin, their activity area was getting smaller and smaller.
Javelin!
“This is just the beginning.” With the Ancient Tree leader’s words,
A stake came out of the ground without warning. This skill had no warning.
It appeared right under the feet of the newcomer Mu Zi. Normally, skills with warnings could be evaded with the Mage’s Blink.
But in the heat of intense output, it was even harder to dodge such a sudden skill.
Bang…
The huge stake sent the newcomer Mu Zi flying. Mid-air, Mu Zi’s body emitted white light and he was instantly killed.
“Damn, what the hell is this?” Hearing the newcomer Mu Zi let out such a piercing scream, and seeing the position where the stake appeared, everyone’s backsides tensed. Bloody hell, everyone was going crazy, this skill was just too cheeky.
Five seconds later, another stake took away the life of Versatile Babe.
Hearing Versatile Babe’s voice change in tone, all the girls turned pale. Damn it, this skill is just shameless.
In the midst of everyone’s tension, they saw a purple light flicker beneath Li Yao’s feet.
People who saw it were startled. If Li Yao went down, then they would be doomed.
But in the blink of an eye as the purple light flashed and the stake emerged, with a single step, a purple stake shot straight into the sky, but it didn’t affect a single hair of Li Yao’s.
“Big brother, how did you dodge it?” DotDot asked hurriedly.
“Watch the Ancient Tree’s eyes. When they flash red, it is going to summon a stake,” said Li Yao. He didn’t miss a beat with his output as he spoke.
“Impossible, you bastard.” The Ancient Tree refused to admit defeat and aimed another stake at Li Yao, but Li Yao simply took a single step out of the way.
Boom….
The Ancient Tree leader couldn’t kill Li Yao, so he switched targets.
Though they now knew the mechanics, there were so many targets, they did not know who the boss was aiming at.
And only oneself could dodge it. It wasn’t that simple to dodge the stakes.
Only a handful of people managed to dodge it. Others were basically taken out by a single stake, followed by a lot of swearing in other channels.
“I can’t hold on anymore.” I Think Jin Jin’s health was in critical condition.
The Guardian Angel wasn’t much better, and neither were the attackers having an easy time. Paying attention to dodge skills while also taking out healers was not an easy task.
Starfire’s members were all in despair. Are they really going to miss the first kill by a whisker…
