"Void Dancer, this Level 139 Purple Gold Rank boss has appeared on the west side. October Rain and Laughing At The Heavens are busy with them right now. What should we do? Should we go and steal it?" Xu Yang was the first to receive the message.
"Fuck, Warsky and the others took it away …" Gui Guzi gritted his teeth in frustration.
I thought for a moment before replying, "Forget it. We're on the east side, and Warsky Alliance is on the west side. We're more than half of Sky City, and it'll take us at least 20 minutes to get there. Let's just leave it to Warsky Alliance. Some things can't be stopped."
"Mn."
… …
We continued to kill the mobs in silence. It wasn't long before the third wave of mobs fell to our swords one by one. I was starting to feel a little worried. The third wave would be Level 139, and each wave would increase by two levels. It looked like the last wave would be Level 153 mobs. The system sure thought highly of us by giving us such a difficult war quest. How could the players of Sky City possibly endure this?
There was no doubt that an SSS Rank quest of this difficulty wouldn't be an exaggeration. This was the legendary God Rank quest that required a lot of human lives to complete.
Li Chengfeng noticed the situation as well, and he said in a dumbfounded tone, "It looks like the last few waves are going to be too much for us to handle. Once the mobs reach Level 150, they'll be able to one-shot us …"
I nodded. "Mn. Let's fight until the end and do our best with a clear conscience toward Sky City!"
"Got it!"
Li Chengfeng smiled. "I've never planned to retreat. If I die, I die. Let's take everything we can before we die!"
"Hahaha …"
… …
It wasn't long before the system announced that the boss had been killed. It was followed by another system announcement that surprised everyone. Warsky Alliance had received a double blessing — Ding ~!
System Announcement: Player "Laughing At The Heavens (Sky City)" has successfully killed the Purple Gold Rank boss Void Dancer and reached Level 116. He has also become a Famous General and become the fifteenth Famous General of China. He has gained Luck + 1, Tactics + 1, and an exclusive Famous General Skill — "Hundred Battles"!
[Hundred Battles]: Beseech the power of the battle soul and increase all party members' attack power by 25% and attack speed by 10%. Skill exclusive to player "Laughing At The Heavens".
…
Tsk tsk, Hundred Battles didn't look bad at all. It increased attack power by 25% and attack effectiveness by 10%. Overall, it was pretty amazing. After all, the best Tactician Skill, Encourage VII, only increased attack power by 20%. Moreover, a Famous General could command twice as many people as a normal player. So, Warsky Alliance's morale was boosted tremendously when Laughing At The Heavens became a Famous General.
Warsky Alliance now had three Famous Generals: Warsky's Hegemon, October Rain's Psychological Assault, and Laughing At The Heavens' Hundred Battles.
On the other hand, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls had Martial God, Royal Road, Bow God, Knight God, and Blitz. Our Famous General Skills were still far superior to our opponents. However, this also meant that Warsky Alliance was still going to be our strongest opponent in the struggle for supremacy of Sky City in the future!
It wasn't long before the fourth monster wave arrived and the battlefield was cleaned up. The boss was taken by The Monarch Descends. As allies, we didn't steal the boss from them. Instead, we acted as their guards. Since The Monarch Descends was lucky enough to have a boss, then the boss belonged to them.
It wasn't long before the fifth monster wave arrived. This time, they were all Level 143 elite mobs!
Ding ~!
System Announcement: All players, please be informed that the third monster wave led by the Level 143 Purple Gold Rank boss "Fire Axe Hogg" has stepped onto the spatial bridge created by the Purgatory Dragon Scepter!
… …
Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh...
Hordes of barbarian warriors kept appearing from the sky. They were undead barbarians that reeked of rot, but they all looked strong and powerful. They wielded battle axes and looked like they wouldn't be easy to deal with!
I quickly checked the barbarian's information and saw its stats — [Barbarian Soul Warrior] (Elite) Level: 143 Attack: 1400 ~ 1650 Defense: 1500 HP: 40000 Skills: [Enemy Penetration], [Trample], [Momentum Slash] Introduction: A warrior from hell that possesses terrifying destructive power...
Alright, a Level 143 elite mob was a lot weaker than a shadow-rank mob. If it was a Level 143 shadow-rank mob, its HP would probably be close to 10k by now. That being said, this Level 143 elite mob was fairly easy to deal with.
I raised the Heaven-stealing Sword and shouted, "Frontliners, hold your ground! Do not retreat! Protect your comrades behind you and prepare to kill!"
Before the barbarian warriors could even get close, Beiming Xue raised her bow and shouted, "Archers, fire a volley of Far Shots and use Shock Arrows to stun them! Mages, prepare to use Arctic Rain to AoE attacks! Don't be stingy with your potions!"
Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh...
Countless arrows flew into the sky and landed in the middle of the mob. Beiming Xue's party naturally had high Attack, so they were able to kill some of the barbarian warriors who were at the center of the barbarian warriors' attacks. The barbarians from hell had lost all sense of reason and were roaring and charging like zombies.
Gui Guzi and the others didn't even bother to put up their shields. They simply swung their weapons and attacked the barbarian warriors like crazy. I followed up with Thousand Ice Slash and Burning Blade Slash. Three fiery sword energies intertwined with one another as they wreaked havoc in the middle of the mob, killing a whole bunch of barbarian warriors in an instant.
Pop pop pop...
The drop-rate was delightful. Pitch-black metal armor pieces that were identical to the ones the Savage Soul Warrior was wearing dropped to the ground. It looked like these mobs could drop equipment sets. Unfortunately, they were only of the Gold-grade at best, and to a Level 115 or above expert, even a Gold-grade equipment set was too much of a disgrace.
A flood of monsters leaped out of the sky and collided with the players. The battle was dazzling. Countless fireballs, wind blades, and frost rained down from the sky, and arrows pierced through the armor of the Barbaric Soul Warriors. The melee players' AoE skills shone brilliantly!
High Fighting Spirits stood at the forefront and let out an angry shout. A cyclone of energy swirled around him and created a vacuum around him, cutting almost all the mobs in the area into pieces. Xiezhi Howl was a very powerful skill, especially when used by a barbarian warrior like High Fighting Spirits who had put all his stat points into Strength.
As always, Li Chengfeng maintained his calm and professional combat style. He swung out Reverse Scale Slash, followed by a precise Dragonbone Flurry, killing the three low-health monsters one after another. He did not waste any DPS. A player like him who could make use of every attack reasonably was a top-tier expert. The other book readers were shocked.
The Great Earth Wanderer, Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun, was one of the top Wanderers in Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls. Riding on his Earth Lizard, he attacked and defended in an orderly fashion as he fought the mobs on his own. He swung his sword repeatedly, and Rock Smash whistled through the air as it rained down on the mobs. Although Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun was seven or eight times weaker than a goddess like Lin Yixin, he was definitely one of the Top 3 Wanderers in the China server!
It was at this moment a mad general suddenly appeared at the edge of the sky. It was a barbarian boss wielding a fiery red battle axe and clad in armor. He roared like a ferocious beast that had just escaped its cage, and his blood-red eyes were mercilessly scanning his surroundings. It was the boss of the fifth wave, Fire Axe Hogg!
He was very close to us, but so were the smaller guilds' camps. I hurriedly shouted, "Someone with high Agility, lure the boss over! This boss is ours!"
Beiming Xue's sweet voice came from behind me. "Big bro, leave this quest to me!"
I hadn't even finished speaking when Beiming Xue's beautiful figure nimbly dashed past me. As an undead player, the succubus in front of Beiming Xue's ears gradually perked up. Her movements were smooth and practiced, and she passed through the mobs in the front row in just a few leaps. Her body flickered up and down, and she nimbly dodged every obstacle. Even the mobs around her couldn't grab her aggro. Only archers and assassins with full Agility could do this.
A few seconds later, Beiming Xue's beautiful voice came from a hundred yards away. She raised her bow and let out a low shout, firing a Devil Piercing Arrow at Fire Axe's head!
Clang!
The arrow collided with Fire Axe Hogg's iron helmet, but the attack's energy was enough to damage the boss. A damage number of 6982 rose above his head. Devil Piercing Arrow could ignore heavy armor to a certain extent, so it was clearly the bane of heavy armor bosses like Fire Axe Hogg. Therefore, a single arrow was enough to infuriate Fire Axe. He raised his battle axe and chased after Beiming Xue.
"Heehee …"
Beiming Xue laughed softly. She moved with ease, her feet drawing two beautiful arcs as she dodged a few groups of monsters. She swam left and right, then turned around. Her graceful figure spun in the air, and another arrow flew out. This time, the aggro on the boss was even more solid. The other book readers watched with a normal expression.
Okay, now this Boss is ours, no problem at all!
Whoosh!
I abruptly moved, grabbed Beiming Xue's shoulder, and protected her behind me. I growled, "Let's attack together and eliminate this boss!"
… …
Gui Guzi, Li Chengfeng, High Fighting Spirits, Chaos Moon, Xu Yang, and the other first-rate experts all charged toward the boss while I charged it. I swung the Heaven-stealing Sword and used Burning Blade Slash!
Thud thud thud!
Three flaming blades collided with the boss's abdomen, causing sparks to fly off its chest armor. At the same time, it lost a small chunk of HP — 7642!
“9991！”
“13017！”
I followed up with a Desperate Gambit and dealt 9304 damage. Yes, my attack power had reached a very OP level. Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, and the others were all dumbfounded. Their attack power wasn't low, but their total damage wasn't even half of mine.
This was understandable. I had three 5-star Outstanding Spirit-grade items: the Silver Dragon Ring, the God Suppressing Helmet, and the God Suppressing Necklace. I also had two 4-star Outstanding Spirit-grade items: the Heaven-stealing Sword and the Battle Soul Leggings. Almost every piece of equipment added a lot of Attack power, and Martial God boosted my attack power by 115%. It would be a miracle if the boss didn't die!
The boss's aggro was locked onto me after a series of shocking attacks, but it was a piece of cake. With Murong Mingyue and Moon Dew healing me from behind, it would be hard for me to die even if I wanted to!
