The Flame Valley was a huge valley. In the deepest part of the valley, there was a small valley where the Crimson Snake King respawned.
It was getting closer to 6 PM and Chen Mo was slowly approaching the Flame Valley.
The Crimson Snake King didn't respawn at 6 PM on time.
There was still some time before the Crimson Snake King respawned. However, at the entrance of the valley, there was a group of people with a crescent moon emblem guarding the entrance.
"Looks like it's New Moon Guild's turn to kill the Crimson Snake King today."
This emblem was the symbol of New Moon Guild. New Moon Guild and Dragon Soaring Guild took turns to kill the Crimson Snake King. Today, New Moon Guild appeared at the entrance of the valley. This meant that it was their turn to kill the Crimson Snake King today.
Chen Mo had already done some research on the forums regarding the Crimson Snake King.
Although New Moon Guild and Dragon Soaring Guild had edited out the important parts of the video, there were still people who revealed the detailed method to kill the Crimson Snake King on the forums.
Chen Mo knew that the person who revealed the method wasn't being kind. They just wanted people to find trouble with the two big guilds.
The Crimson Snake King was very powerful, but it wasn't very powerful either. Those who didn't know the method would be wiped out even if hundreds of people came. However, once they knew the method, as long as they had the appropriate manpower, killing the Crimson Snake King would be a simple task.
Since New Moon Guild wanted to kill the Crimson Snake King, they had only sent a little over thirty people.
Chen Mo had read the guide and knew the characteristics of the Crimson Snake King. There was no way he could kill the Crimson Snake King by himself. If he wanted to kill the Crimson Snake King, he would have to take advantage of the situation or rely on external help.
The Crimson Snake King hadn't respawned yet, so Chen Mo wasn't in a hurry to start a conflict with New Moon Guild.
"Boss Moonlight, the Crimson Snake King has respawned!"
Not long later, a shout came from the valley.
"Let's go. Kill it quickly and continue to level up!"
At the entrance of the valley, a middle-aged Mage shouted at the surrounding New Moon Guild members.
"Yes!"
Following which, more than 30 people strode into the valley in a grandiose manner.
Seeing that the Crimson Snake King had respawned, Chen Mo quickly disguised himself and entered the valley.
"Shield Paladins, stand in formation and listen to my orders. Don't miss the boss' HP notifications!
The eyes of the ranged attackers lit up. When the Crimson Snake King's life is in danger, it will escape inside. Remember, do not chase and attack randomly!
There is still a Wolf King in the valley. That Wolf King boss is not something we can kill!
If we alert that guy and get attacked by the two bosses, we'll definitely be wiped out! "
Inside the valley, when they were still a hundred meters away from the Crimson Snake King, the middle-aged mage reorganized the team's formation on his Moonlight Ship and warned his subordinates.
"Got it, Boss Moonlight. It's not our first time fighting this boss anyway!"
"That's right, that's right. Who would provoke that Wolf King Boss? Back then, the Dragon Soaring Guild wasn't afraid of death and wanted to kill the Wolf King Boss. In the end, they were easily wiped out. Even if the people from The Strongest Guild came, they would still end up the same way."
"It's good that you know. Anyway, there's nothing wrong with being careful. It'll be fine if someone comes to cause trouble, but if no one comes and we get wiped out by the boss, the Crimson Snake King will fall into the hands of the Dragon Soaring Guild!" Moonlight Ship shouted with a cold face.
They had a special agreement with the Dragon Soaring Guild. If they were wiped out by the boss, they would need a few hours to rush over. The other guild that was waiting would be able to take down the boss directly. Moreover, the next boss would still belong to the same guild. Going back and forth, they would have three less bosses. It was a huge loss. As the person in charge, Moonlight Ship solemnly warned his subordinates.
"Everyone, get into formation. Shield Paladins, attack the boss!"
Under Moonlight Ship's command, the people of New Moon Guild stood in two large groups. Then, four Shield Paladins walked forward.
In front of them, there was a huge red snake that was as thick as a thigh and dozens of meters long coiled around a black withered tree. When it saw the people of New Moon Guild walk over, the huge snake spat out a huge scarlet snake head.
"Squeak!"
The Shield Paladins of New Moon Guild used [Taunt] to attack the Scarlet Snake King. The Scarlet Snake King roared angrily. Its huge body suddenly moved and fiercely pounced towards the Shield Paladins.
However, the Shield Paladins were not afraid of the Scarlet Snake King's fierce attack.
The Shield Paladins raised their weapons and blocked the Scarlet Snake King!
Bang!
-5100!
This attack of the Scarlet Snake King could instantly kill a normal low-HP class. It could deal 20,000 to 30,000 damage. However, when it hit the Shield Paladins, it only dealt around 5,000 damage.
It had to be said that after the second class advancement, the Shield Paladins' HP was extraordinarily high with the various buffs from the Priests.
The more powerful Shield Paladins had over 60,000 HP. With the buffs from the Priests and their own skills, their HP could reach up to 80,000 to 90,000. The more powerful ones had no problem with over 100,000 HP.
As one of the top ten guilds, the Shield Paladins of New Moon Guild were naturally not much better. The Scarlet Snake King dealt around 5,000 damage to the Shield Paladins. To the Shield Paladins, it did not hurt at all.
"Attack!"
After the Shield Paladins pulled the aggro, Moonlight Ship gave the order. The ranged players at the back began to attack the Scarlet Snake King.
The Scarlet Snake King's Attack was very high, but its Defense was low. Under over 20 attacks, its HP began to drop rapidly.
"The poison damage is coming. Priests, prepare to dispel it!"
In the blink of an eye, the Scarlet Snake King's HP fell to 90%. Moonlight Ship saw this and immediately gave the order to the Priests.
The Scarlet Snake King's poison damage was Fire Poison. It was very special. It had a poison and burn effect. After it attacked the Shield Paladins, the Shield Paladins would enter a Poisoned state. If this Poisoned state stacked three times and the Scarlet Snake King attacked again, the Scarlet Snake King's attack could ignore the Shield Paladins' Defense. Even if the Shield Paladins had a lot of HP, they would still be killed in a matter of minutes.
Following Moonlight Ship's order, the Scarlet Snake King's attack landed on a Shield Paladin. The Shield Paladin's body immediately turned fiery red, as if he was burning.
The party had long since made arrangements. Without needing Moonlight Ship's order, the Priest standing at the front of the party cast Dispel on the poisoned Shield Paladin after the Scarlet Snake King attacked the Shield Paladin twice. In the instant the Shield Paladin's poison damage stacked three times.
If it were any other small guild, they would most likely dispel the Shield Paladin's poison status the second time. However, if they did that, the number of Priests assigned to the party would increase by half.
Meanwhile, by stacking three times before dispelling, the number of Priests needed would be much lower. However, doing so was extremely dangerous.
The instant the Dispel skill landed on the Shield Paladin, the Scarlet Snake King's attack abruptly landed once again!
After stacking three times, the Scarlet Snake King's next attack would come extremely quickly. If the Priest's actions were slightly slower, the Shield Paladin would be instantly killed by the Boss.
As expected of one of the Ten Great Guilds, New Moon Guild's members were all very skilled. The time difference between their skills was very accurate.
"Sure enough, they do have some skill. If we want to snatch the Boss later, it'll be a little troublesome. I'm afraid we'll have to use that killer move!"
Chen Mo watched from the shadows as New Moon Guild attacked the Scarlet Snake King. He saw that their movements were as smooth as flowing water. Their coordination was extremely good. Compared to the Bloodbath Guild he had seen before, the difference was huge.
It was no wonder that the Bloodbath Guild and the Great Bull Guild were unable to enter the Ten Great Guilds. To be able to enter the Ten Great Guilds, their strength was definitely not weak.
Chen Mo was even more curious as to why Dragon Soaring Guild could become one of the Ten Great Guilds.
It had only been two months since he and Big Fatty had annihilated the Dragon Soaring Guild. How much could Dragon Soaring Guild have improved in two months?
If it weren't for the Body Strengthening Potion, which greatly increased his reaction speed, he wouldn't have improved much in these two months.
The members of New Moon Guild were very well-coordinated. The Shield Knights held onto the aggro tightly. The Scarlet Snake King's attacks were split between the four Shield Knights. Not only the four Shield Knights, but even the Priests behind them didn't feel much pressure.
Under the orderly attacks of New Moon Guild, the Scarlet Snake King's HP dropped very quickly.
In less than two minutes, the Scarlet Snake King's HP had dropped to 70%.
"The first wave of big moves is here. Shield Knights, get into position. The rest of you, pay attention to your positions!"
Moonlight Ship, who had been keeping an eye on the Scarlet Snake King's HP, suddenly called out.
The four Shield Knights at the front changed their formation. Only two of them walked in front and stood closely together. Then, the two Shield Knights retreated and stood side by side behind the two Shield Knights in front.
Then, the players and Priests in charge of DPS quickly ran behind the four Shield Knights.
After they finished running, the Scarlet Snake King's HP had also dropped to 70%.
Boom!
Then, the Crimson Snake King opened its mouth, and a huge semicircular fan-shaped flame suddenly spat out from its mouth!
Within a radius of 180 degrees, there were no blind spots. This was an AoE attack!
Moreover, this attack could pierce through one Shield Knight and only stopped when it landed on the second Shield Knight.
The flame was blocked by the four Shield Knights. The members of New Moon Guild behind them were safe and sound.
This was also why Chen Mo knew that he couldn't kill the Scarlet Snake King alone. He had no way of blocking the Scarlet Snake King's attack.
This flame attack was a multi-stage attack. Even if it was a Shield Knight, their HP would drop rapidly under this attack. Even with the Priests behind them, they would still lose close to 50,000 HP.
If it was a normal player, they would definitely be killed instantly. Therefore, those who didn't know the Scarlet Snake King's fighting style and weren't strong enough or coordinated well would definitely not be able to kill it.
The Scarlet Snake King would use this move a total of three times. There would be two more times after that, each time stronger than the last.
However, New Moon Guild already knew the Scarlet Snake King's fighting style and had successfully killed it before. The Scarlet Snake King was dead for sure.
Chen Mo watched from afar. He didn't move and waited for the final moment to arrive.
However, when the Scarlet Snake King's HP dropped to 50%, Chen Mo unexpectedly discovered a group of uninvited guests at the entrance of the valley!
"It's her?"
The people who came weren't from Dragon Soaring Guild. When Chen Mo saw the figure in the lead, he was very surprised.
…
The first one was even worse.
