After a while, Beiming Xue wiped the sweat off her forehead and asked, "Why isn't the second wave coming yet?"
"Wait a moment. Everyone else, read normally:!"
I contacted Lin Yixin. "Yiyi, what's the situation over at Snowy Cathaya?"
Lin Yixin replied, "A Skull Swordsman boss has appeared and is surrounded by us. It will be over in about a minute. What, are you in a hurry?"
"No rush, no rush, take your time..."
Every wave of monsters would spawn a boss, and Lin Yixin and the others were quite lucky that the first boss appeared in Snowy Cathaya's area.
… …
About half a minute later, the system bell sounded — Ding ~!
System Notice: Congratulations to player "Wind Fantasy" for killing Skull King and obtaining 100 points!
Damn, so many points. This Boss was definitely something that they had to fight for!
I looked into the distance and found that Dominating Heaven Blade and the others were looking in our direction. Hmph hmph, if the boss appears in Frost Cloud workshop, this old guy will not be able to resist and attack. Everyone else, read normally:.
At this time, the second wave of Skull Castle's counterattack army had come out. It was a swarm of sickly little bees!
Killer Bees, Level 77 common monsters. Their Attack was slightly higher than the Skull Swordsmen, but because they were common monsters, they were not a problem to kill.
I raised my sword and stood at the front. With a Thousand Mirage Slash, I cut down countless Killer Bees. My points skyrocketed, but because the monsters' levels weren't high, the experience gained was minuscule. It was impossible to rely on this method to level up. The system wouldn't take care of high level players. The first few waves of monsters were used to feed low level players. Whether it was the Skull Swordsman or the Killer Bees, for players under Lv 70, they were all monsters that would provide a lot of experience!
After fighting for half an hour, the Killer Bee army was cleared out again.
Buzz buzz...
Not far away, a sound came. An enormous Killer Bee descended from the sky and landed in the Gods of Destruction camp. Damn, Dominating Heaven Blade's luck was good. The second boss had appeared in that direction!
"Brothers, charge!"
Dominating Heaven Blade pointed his sword forward, and a large group of people rushed forward to attack a Level 79 Silver Boss, killing it happily.
Beiming Xue glanced in that direction and said, "Big bro, how about we go over and steal that boss?"
I shook my head. "No need, it's still too early. A Level 79 Silver Rank boss won't drop anything good. Just give it to them!"
"Mn!"
A few minutes later, the boss was killed by Dominating Warrior God and gained 200 points. On the overall point ranking, I was already in — 1. Murong Mingyue Level 80 Points: 54022, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand Level 85 Points: 47833, Wind Fantasy Level 83 Points: 44024, Dominating Mage God Level 80 Points: 41085, Purple Marquis Level 80 Points: 40236, Beiming Xue Level 82 Points: 38747, Shadow Chanel Level 80 Points: 37658, Clear Perfume Level 80 Points: 34959, From Water Level 80 Points: 332110, Dominating Archer God Level 78 Points: 2987...
Murong Mingyue reached the top as a priest all thanks to Hellish Rockfall and the Prayer Scepter. Lin Yixin became even stronger after obtaining the AoE skill Ice Flame Slash. Also, it was basically all mages and priests. Purple Marquis should have an AoE physical attack skill. He Yi entered the Top 10 thanks to the powerful Firelight Mouse. The other readers looked at it normally:!
In short, the Frost Cloud workshop was all in the Top 10. This was a symbol of strength, enough to make Dominating Heaven Blade and the others die of shame!
… …
Not long after, the gates of Skull Castle opened again, and the third wave of monsters arrived. This time, it was a group of high-level Mountain Spiders!
I was shocked. D * mn, what kind of Boss was the city lord of Skull Castle? He even raised so many Mountain Spiders. How interesting!
I looked, and the stats of the Mountain Spiders came into view. I was shocked. The game designers were so shameless!
[Mountain Spider] (Elite Monster) Level: 79 Attack: 820-950 Defense: 650 Health: 14500 Skills: [Venom], [Web] Introduction: Mountain Spiders have existed on the continent for tens of thousands of years. These mysterious web weavers have always existed deep in the mountains. They are very cruel and are hostile to all living beings. They also have powerful web attacks and venom attacks. The human empires have given countless orders to exterminate the Mountain Spiders, but have not received any results.
In an instant, they jumped from Level 77 common monsters to Level 79 elite monsters. Their Attack, Defense, and HP increased by more than an order.
This time, many players were going to suffer!
Just as I expected, the Mountain Spiders swarmed over. Many players around the Frost Cloud workshop laughed and raised their weapons, not realizing how terrifying the monsters this time were. Some high-level players shouted, "Come back, the third wave of monsters is super strong, they're all elite monsters. Fans like to read:!"
The low-level players who could not see the level of the monsters immediately laughed. "Elite your sister, it's definitely normal trash monsters. We have to earn points!"
In the end, the Mountain Spiders swept over. In front of us, thousands of mid-level players were eaten by the Mountain Spiders without reinforcements. They died horribly. The Mountain Spiders tore at the corpses with their terrifying mouths. Only the designers of Eternal Moon Corporation could think of and do this kind of design.
A small group of Level 79 monsters wouldn't pose much of a threat, but the Demonized Mountain Spiders swarmed the area. Once surrounded, a player would die, no matter how strong they were!
Thinking of this, I became nervous and hurriedly said, "Line up. Warriors at the front, block the Mountain Spiders. Mages and archers at the back, prepare to attack. Priests, don't be selfish, heal the warriors at the front. Everyone, work together!"
After my shout, the effect was obvious. The surrounding solo players and small parties all formed a defensive line. Not long after, a defensive line that wasn't very strong was formed. At least, it could stop the Mountain Spiders for a short while!
I brought up my friend list and sent Gui Guzi a message: "Little Gui, ask Xu Yang for 500 high-level players of all classes. Come to my coordinates and reinforce us, or the mobs will tear a hole through this place!" Beiming Xue stood in front of me with my sword.
Gui Guzi quickly replied, "I'll go find Xu Yang now. Reinforcements will arrive in about half an hour!"
"Okay!"
… …
I turned off the communicator. The first wave of Mountain Spiders had arrived. My sword shook, and Thousand Mirage Slash tore through the air, landing multiple critical hits. The splash effect radiated and instantly killed a dozen Mountain Spiders. Murong Mingyue followed up with a Hellish Rockfall, healing many of the Mountain Spiders.
I couldn't help but say in the party, "Damn, I'll do the damage, Sister Mingyue, you take the kills, it's not right..."
Murong Mingyue laughed softly. "Okay okay, I'll treat you to a meal later..."
A few seconds later, Murong Mingyue smashed a group of Mountain Spiders into nothing with Hellish Rockfall. My Purgatory Sword suddenly roared, and Purgatory Slash tore through the air!
Boom!
White light flew, and they were all instantly killed. Very good, this time I took advantage of Murong Mingyue. The elite monsters felt so good!
However, the good times did not last long. The Level-79 Mountain Spider's attacks were not just for show. After a series of bites, the melee players on the frontline could not hold on any longer. "Ahhhh!" Screams of pain rose and fell. Warriors below Level 70 had too weak a defense!
I looked to my left and right. The entire front line was about a hundred meters long. Only Gods of Destruction's side was able to hold their ground. As for our side, the weakness of our solo players was completely exposed. It wouldn't be long before we collapsed like a landslide!
"Hold on!" I shouted.
Unfortunately, my shout could not stop the routed crowd. The Mountain Spiders quickly surged in, tearing at the corpses of players like a black sea.
"It's over..."
Murong Mingyue's expression changed. "Retreat quickly, or we will be surrounded here..."
I gritted my teeth. "Alright!"
But at this moment, the sound of hooves thundered from behind. Shadow Dancer Xue Wei had put away her bow and unsheathed her sword. She rode over on her Bone Battle Wolf and slaughtered the Mountain Spiders. Moreover, there were at least 1,000 Shadow Dancer Cavalrymen behind her. These high-rank Undead Cavalrymen were extremely powerful. The Mountain Spiders couldn't stop them at all!
"Why are they here?" I looked behind me suspiciously. The other readers looked normal.
He Yi's eyes were as clear as water. She smiled and said, "I think your friendship with Shadow Dancer Xue Wei must've exceeded a certain threshold during the last quest. That's why she came to our corner alone, right?"
"Yes, maybe..."
At this time, Xue Wei came in front of us and said with a smile, "You came too!"
"Yes!" I nodded.
Xue Wei smiled, turned around, and shouted to the cavalry behind her, "Get into formation! Block the attack of these evil spirits! Remember, you are dead warriors, and honor has never left our bodies. Even if we are no longer alive, we have a reason to fight for honor and life!"
Clang clang clang...
The cavalrymen sheathed their swords and took out the long spears hanging on the sides of their horses. Countless spears flashing with cold light pointed at Skull Castle. The cavalrymen did not move, waiting for the Mountain Spiders to arrive. They were prepared to deal with any change by staying put.
I was speechless. This setting should have been made for players. The NPC army would not attack first, leaving the frontlines to us. This way, everyone would have a chance to grind monsters.
It was at this moment Gui Guzi charged toward us with a group of elite Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls players by his side. Chaos Moon, Moonlight Stone, Shangri-La, Moon Dew, and more elite players had come with him. It looked like all of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' top players had come with Gui Guzi. I opened the guild chat channel, and as expected, Gui Guzi waved his arm and shouted, "The leader and the two vice leaders are surrounded on the other side of the castle. Who wants to go rescue them with me?"
As a result, we brought 500 elites with us. Even though it was just 500 people, I was very confident that they would be a force to be reckoned with. After all, He Yi, Murong Mingyue, Gui Guzi, Xu Yang, and I had spent a lot of effort to build this army. In the future, we would be relying on these people to dominate the world!
Yes, now, take down Skull Castle first!
