Kamui forgot all about his subsequent attacks and was knocked back to the group by a horizontal slap from the tentacle.
-1094!
A bright damage number appeared above his head.
However, the tentacles did not pursue, and with a whoosh, they retracted back into the clouds. The sea of mist surged and quickly filled the gap that had been blown away by the wind, causing the terrifying monster to disappear from everyone's sight.
But two people managed to react before it receded.
The cuttlefish drew its bow sharply, and three dark blue arrows followed, its tentacles disappearing into the sea of clouds.
A huge, blazing fireball also disappeared into the clouds with a whoosh.
A moment later.
A loud bang was heard.
The raging flames seemed to have dyed the entire cloud layer orange-red.
"Holy crap, what on earth is that thing?!"
Nine Lives wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"It's so scary... Brother Wei, I don't want to play this dungeon anymore..." Gillian even sounded like she was about to cry.
Upon hearing this, Kamui glanced at her subtly before reassuring her, "It's alright, I'll protect you."
"349, 387, 356."
The squid reported a few numbers.
He continued, "We can fight it. This monster looks scary, but it's only at the level of a second-tier boss monster."
After saying that, he looked at Su Bai.
Su Bai did not report the damage he dealt, but said, "Let's keep going. I have a passive skill that can warn us if this monster comes again."
These words were, of course, just an excuse.
Su Bai only understands the mechanism.
The monster currently harassing everyone is actually the boss of the second level of the secret realm, but it currently has a health lock protection mechanism, so no matter how high the output is, it cannot be killed.
The only option is to be constantly on guard against its sneak attacks while on the road.
Its attack is a guaranteed kill mechanism.
Just like at the beginning, when Gillian was hit, if she had been dragged into the sea of clouds without any warning, it would have been an instant kill.
No matter how many ways you try to save your life, it won't help.
But it's also easy to deal with.
As long as its attack can be interrupted in time, it can be prevented from killing people instantly. Once this mountain road is crossed, it will have no chance to make a move.
After this incident, the number of "flower vases" in the group finally decreased significantly.
After everyone had regained their composure, they continued on their way.
We walked a short distance.
Strange figures began to appear on the mountain road.
Most of these people were poorly dressed and thin. Some were kneeling on the road, worshipping the mountaintop, while others stood motionless with blank expressions.
They only reacted after the crowd got closer.
"No...forward..."
They shouted incoherently, their eyes suddenly turned red, and tiny insects seemed to writhe in their pupils. As if in a frenzy, they pounced on the crowd.
[Blind Follower: Common, Level 25, HP: 5300/5300]
"Leave it to me!"
With nowhere to vent his resentment, Shenwei drew his greatsword with both hands and leaped directly into the monster horde.
Boom!!
The ground cracked under his foot, and a shockwave erupted, stunning all the monsters in the vicinity.
Then, Shenwei swung his giant sword, creating a burst of crimson sword light.
Whirlwind Slash!
-232!
-237!
-239!
...
A dense array of damage numbers appeared.
Others followed suit.
"Winter! Frost! Great God of the Elements, grant me the power to freeze everything!"
Nine lives chanted the incantation.
Ice storm!
An ice cloud immediately gathered above the monster horde, and after a brief delay, dense ice crystals formed a torrential rain, raining down on the monsters within range.
Any monster hit by the frost would quickly condense on its body, making it move even more stiffly.
The two worked together.
This directly immobilized the group of monsters, preventing them from moving at all.
Su Bai added two large fireballs from the side, while Mo Yu was responsible for taking out any lone monsters on the edge.
Less than half a minute.
This wave of monsters, totaling more than a dozen, was completely wiped out.
[Gain: 200 Experience! (Base 50 points + 50 points from party buff + 100 points from dungeon buff)]
...
A notification sounded in my ear.
This level 25 monster should normally give around 250 experience points.
If a five-person team kills a monster, they will only receive 20% of the experience. However, if players team up, they will receive an additional 20% bonus, so on average, each person can receive 40% of the experience.
The increase from the secret realm is calculated separately.
You gain less experience when you team up.
However, it is actually more efficient.
Five people together can easily challenge monsters that a single person cannot defeat. If you team up with a few mages, the monster-killing efficiency can be more than ten times faster than a single person.
certainly.
Su Bai's unconventional approach is clearly not suitable for this calculation method.
"This dungeon isn't that tough after all." Shenwei stood amidst the mangled limbs and corpses of a group of monsters, and after struggling for a while, he finally couldn't hold back and leaned to the side, retching a few times.
He wasn't gagging because he couldn't stand the scene.
Instead... dizzy!
Whirlwind Slash is a skill that looks cool and stylish in most games, and is very popular among warrior-type players.
However, in actual gameplay, it really tests the player's endurance.
How many times can a normal person withstand the dizziness and spin around?
Su Bai shook his head inwardly. He didn't know whether to praise Shenwei's courage or lament his foolishness for using a self-destructive skill like Whirlwind Slash in actual combat.
He thought that having a clueless, good-for-nothing in the team was stupid enough.
