Ling Yue exclaimed, "Scholar, be careful! Make sure to attract their firepower!
Sister Qin Yun, heal Scholar! "
I immediately understood Ling Yue's meaning. I had the highest HP and Magic Resist out of everyone present. I was the fortress at the forefront of Xue Yue Studio. As long as I didn't fall, Xue Yue Studio wouldn't fall. If I fell, the rest of the girls wouldn't be able to withstand the attacks of the Harpies.
Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh!
Five fireballs flew toward me at the same time. I felt a pain in my chest and my HP instantly dropped by 1700. Thankfully, Qin Yun had predicted it and immediately cast a Greater Heal on me, healing me for 1800 HP. It was actually more than the damage dealt!
However, the other five Harpies locked onto Ling Yue and the others behind me. I was shocked. I absolutely couldn't let Ling Yue be one-shot!
I abruptly gripped my bow and activated [Thousand Blade Arrow]. In an instant, a rainbow-colored light blossomed in the night sky. A few Harpies that were trying to attack Ling Yue were immediately attracted to me. All of their aggro was focused on me!
The sound of flapping wings grew louder and louder. The 10 Harpies huddled together, half of them casting Ear-Piercing Screech and the other half gathering Fireballs!
Roar!
The blazing fireballs surged toward me. I raised my left arm and the Thunder Fortress imprint on my arm suddenly released a bright light. A shield of light instantly appeared, blocking the fireballs. However, it couldn't block all the damage. I still lost more than 1200 HP!
In the next moment, another round of Fireballs came and my HP dropped by another 1000 or so. Soon, I had lost half of my HP!
Swhoosh!
A ray of white light flashed, and Qin Yun's [Greater Heal] appeared again, instantly restoring me to 1886 HP!
It had to be said that Qin Yun's healing output was too high. If it was a normal Level 50 Cleric, it would be pretty good if they could heal 800 points, but Qin Yun could heal 1,800 points!
However, Greater Healing Skill required three seconds to cast, which was also the weakness of the skill. The Harpy's attack damage was slightly higher than Qin Yun's healing damage!
A few Eagle Demons seemed to have sensed Qin Yun's healing ability, and their aggro was immediately drawn to her. One of them even blasted a fireball at her!
Poof!
A pure white shield appeared around Qin Yun and barely blocked the attack. But this was a Priest's Shield after all, and it was even weaker than a Mage's Shield. Qin Yun couldn't block the Harpies' next attack no matter what.
I hurriedly fired a Thousand Blade Arrow and just barely pulled the Harpies' aggro toward me. The situation almost went out of control, but I tried my best to calm myself down. If I lost my composure, this party would be wiped out!
He methodically released the Thousand Blade Arrows, almost perfectly attracting the aggro of the ten Eagle Demons to himself. Qin Yun, who was below, laughed softly, "Killing monsters with Scholar sure gives me a sense of security …"
Ling Yue asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Sword Fire's warriors can't hold the mobs?"
Qin Yun said, "Sword Fire's players, except for Xing Tian, can't hold the mobs. There were a few times when they almost killed me!"
Bing Cha couldn't help but laugh softly. "Of course our Scholar is different ~"
I was secretly delighted. I raised a Thousand Blade Arrow and killed a low HP Harpy. Everyone had already gotten used to this kind of monster attack, so it wasn't that difficult. Especially me, Ling Yue, and Qin Yun, the three of us who had heavy firepower. We could directly kill 10 Harpies in the air!
The surrounding NPCs also began to help. A large group of archers surrounded the Harpies and used normal attacks. Their attack power was very weak, only dealing an average of 400 damage. But it was better than nothing. Plus, there were many NPCs, so their attack power couldn't be underestimated!
About five minutes later, we finally killed all the Harpies!
On the ground, there were a few piles of gold coins and what seemed to be some equipment.
Ling Xue walked up and picked up all the spoils. Then, an equipment illustration appeared in the party channel — —
[Flame Bracers] (Silver-grade — Leather Armor)
Defense: 65
Agility: + 12
Stamina: + 8
Passive: Increases user's Agility by 2%
Level Requirement: 50
Set Effect: Increases user's fire-type skill damage by 35%
(Unappraised)
… …
I stilled and said with a smile, "It's a leather armor set, Level 50 Silver-grade. Not bad!"
Ling Xue smiled and threw it to Silent Rain. She said, "You can use this. Try to get a full Flame set by tonight!"
Silent Rain said gratefully, "Thank you, Ling Xue!"
Ling Xue said with a smile, "No need to thank me, we're all on the same side. If this was a Gold-grade armor set, I would definitely fight for it!"
Everyone knew Ling Xue's personality, so they just laughed it off.
Less than two minutes later, we received another system notification —
Ding ~!
System Notice: Please be informed that the second wave of Harpies has begun. Number: 10!
… …
Another 10 Harpies attacked!
However, everyone was no longer as nervous as before. Now that we had experience, it was much easier to deal with the monsters. Most importantly, not only could I tank the damage, I could also accurately attract the aggro of all the mobs. With me around, the girls only needed to focus on dealing damage.
After the exchange, Ling Xue walked back and forth in boredom. She looked up at the sky and said helplessly, "Sister Bing Cha, are we just going to watch?"
Bing Cha smiled helplessly. "What else can we do?"
At that moment, Silent Rain suddenly fired an arrow, hitting a Harpy's left wing. That area seemed to be a weak point. In an instant, the Harpy lost its balance and plummeted!
Ding ~!
Combat Log: Player "Silent Rain" struck the Harpy's weak point. The Harpy has lost the ability to fly!
… …
I rubbed my eyes. Something like this happened!
Silent Rain laughed excitedly. "I can shoot down these birdmen, this is great!"
The Harpy struggled on the ground, but no matter how hard it tried, it could not fly. In the end, it could only walk on its bird feet and become foot soldiers!
Ling Xue and Bing Cha were overjoyed. They immediately rushed up with their swords and turned the Harpy into experience and gold like they were cutting vegetables.
When Ling Yue saw this, she immediately smiled and said, "Beauty Luo Yu, why don't you try it again? This kind of Eagle Demon's attack power is low on the ground, so the threat is much smaller. Furthermore, it can also reduce the pressure on Scholar!"
Silent Rain nodded and tried three more times. Finally, she hit the Harpy's weak point again, and another Harpy fell to the ground.
I couldn't help but praise, "Beauty Luo Yu has good eyes!"
Soundless Rain immediately blushed and said, "Shusheng, don't praise me. I was only able to help a little …"
The following battles became even easier. Silent Rain's accuracy grew higher and higher, and he could hit almost every time. Half of the Harpies in the air had become foot soldiers. On the ground, they flapped their wings and fought with Ling Xue and Bing Cha. Their attack power was not high, and with Ling Xue and Bing Cha's Magic Resist, they could completely endure it. Qin Yun healed me and healed me.
Just like that, we cleared out 10 waves of such attacks in an hour. Not only did the 100 Harpies give us a lot of experience, they also gave us several pieces of the Fiery Set. All we needed was a pair of boots and Silent Rain would be able to complete a Level 50 Silver-grade leather armor set!
After all the monsters in the tenth wave had been killed, the sky was quiet again.
Ling Yue looked into the distance and said with a smile, "Is this quest about to be completed?"
I shook my head with a smile. "Of course not, the final boss hasn't appeared yet!"
Just as he finished speaking, there was another wave of disorderly flapping of wings, and this time, even more black shadows appeared!
Ding ~!
System Notice: Please be informed, the eleventh wave of Harpies has begun. Number: 25!
… …
I was shocked. "Are you kidding me?
Twenty-five at once?
Do you think we are the God of War? "
Ling Yue also had an expression of shock. "Is the system wrong?
Is this even possible?
Even if it's a 1200 quest, there's no need to make it so crazy... "
Ling Xue, on the other hand, looked very confident. She patted her chest and smiled. "Shusheng, take 10 of them by yourself first. Then, Silent Rain will take down the remaining 15. Sister Iced Tea and I will lead these birds in circles!"
I had to say, Ling Xue's idea was not bad, and it was a good plan at the moment!
A group of black Harpies descended at the same time. My heart skipped a beat, and I immediately turned around and said unquestionably, "Ling Yue!
Thousand Miles of Ice, freeze these birdmen first! "
Ling Yue was shocked at first, but then revealed a sweet smile. She waved her Snow Goddess Scepter, and thousands of ice flowers immediately bloomed in the air. Almost all the Harpies were slowed, and their movement speed became extremely slow. After being attacked by my Thousand Blade Arrows, they looked very disheveled!
Ling Yue smiled happily. "So Thousand Miles of Ice is so good against these Harpies. Why didn't Scholar say so earlier!"
I was speechless. "I forgot you have this skill. I only remembered to slow them down."
Soundless Rain began to accurately hit the monster's weak points. One by one, the Harpies fell to the ground. Ling Xue's beautiful figure immediately rushed forward. Her Thunderclap Sword glowed with lightning as it slashed down. Numerous sword energy "Shua Shua" flew out, actually hitting the target in midair. With one strike, the Harpy's HP dropped extremely quickly. The damage of [Crisscrossing Sword] was definitely higher than my Thousand Blade Arrow!
Ling Xue seemed to have realized this, and immediately continued to attack. On average, she could use [Crisscrossing Sword] once every ten attacks, causing her damage to increase by leaps and bounds!
Boom boom boom!
Almost ten fireballs landed on me at the same time. Immediately, my HP dropped by more than 3000, and in an instant, it dropped to more than 1000. It was very dangerous!
Qin Yun's large-scale healing arrived, but it still could not solve the problem. The next Harpies' attack would be able to instantly kill me!
"Hua!"
A streak of blood floated past, and I directly jumped down?
On the watchtower, the shadow of the blood-colored cloak cutting through the sky was very beautiful.
I turned around and shot a Thousand Blade Arrow, continuing to attract the monsters' aggro. At the same time, I sprinted forward. The Harpies' attacks were magic attacks, and it took about 2.5 seconds to cast. If I ran out of their range during this time, the system would deem the attack invalid!
Under Silent Rain's continuous attacks, the Harpies fell one by one. As for Ling Yue, she looked at my figure and murmured, "Scholar, this guy is so smart..."
Thus, under the extreme control of the firepower, our small party was barely able to kill the monsters. A wave of 25 Harpies took us almost 30 minutes to finish them all!
Fortunately, the Harpies were Level 80 elite monsters. Whether it was experience or items, they were very generous, so everyone had a lot of fun killing them.
Before we knew it, it was already past four in the morning. After finishing off the 17th wave of Harpies, Ling Xue picked up all the gold and equipment. Suddenly, she let out a "Ah!" and said to Ling Yue, "Sister!
We stayed up late today!
If dad finds out, he'll scold us for being immature... "
Ling Yue was stunned, and then smiled. "It's fine. If you're immature, then be immature this time. When dad returns to Suzhou, Xue Er will make him a cup of tea, and all of dad's troubles will disappear!"
Ling Xue smiled. "That's true. Then let's stay up late tonight. At most, we'll sleep a little more tomorrow..."
"Yes, right!"
And so, everyone decided that Xue Yue Studio would all stay up all night, the first time!
In the end, the number of Harpies to kill in this quest seemed to be endless. At around nine in the morning, we had already killed the 25th wave!
All of them were the attacks of 25 Harpies. During this long period of grinding, I had long since risen to Lv 60. Right now, my experience was already at 65% of Lv 60. From this, it could be seen how abundant the Harpies' experience was!
Besides me, the other members of Xue Yue Studio had also leveled up. Ling Yue had reached Level 60 an hour ago, and Ling Xue had reached Level 58. Her Sword Energy Rampaging dealt too much damage, so she took up most of the experience from killing the monsters.
As for Qin Yun, due to the high DPS of her healers, she similarly received a lot of EXP, rising to Level 56. Iced Tea and Silent Rain, on the other hand, rose to Level 55. Summer and Purple Moon, on the other hand, rose to Level 53.
As for Gold Coins, according to Ling Xue's calculations, they had gained a total of over 18000 Gold Coins. It was a bountiful harvest. What was even more delightful was the equipment. Aside from giving Silent Rain the Fiery Set Equipment, Ling Xue also had four more Fiery Set Equipment sets in her bag. There were also some small components that could be sold at a stall.
The Fire set was definitely the first choice for archers who liked fire arrows. It increased the attack power of fire-type skills by 35%. It greatly increased leveling efficiency, saved potions, and dealt high damage.
Ling Yue yawned innocently and said with a smile, "Snow, take care of the equipment. When we go online tomorrow, come with me to set up a stall. The money from selling these equipment will be the workshop's operating funds."
Qin Yun looked up at the sky and asked, "When will the final boss arrive?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a piercing bird cry and a red light flashed. The final challenge had finally arrived!
