Chapter 31
Everyone turned around in astonishment and saw a female star official waving her weapon not far away.
And every time her skills landed on the dragon, the damage she inflicted was far different from what she inflicted on these rookies.
"...So the Star Officer is so powerful? If I had known this, I would have chosen this profession." An elementalist complained in frustration.
Upon hearing this, his paladin companion slashed his head fiercely. "What are you thinking? You can't even play an elementalist well, and you think you can become a god by changing your profession? They're strong in their strength, not their profession..."
"Oh!" The elementalist who was mercilessly mocked by his companions rolled his eyes, withdrew his envious and admiring look from the female star official, and continued to concentrate on killing the dragon.
After brushing for a while, suddenly, a pair of hands pushed him hard from behind.
"Get out of the way, don't block the road~"
The elementalist was about to lose his temper when he saw that the people who pushed him all had the same guild name hanging above their heads - the Black Domain Kingdom.
"Oh my god, it's Black Domain and the others... Bro, get out of the way quickly, or they'll kill you." Upon seeing this, the Paladin's companion quickly pulled his silly friend away.
The Elementalist looked displeased: "Big Guild, what's so great about it? The dragon is a public boss, not exclusive to them!"
"Hey, stop talking! Come on, follow me over there, there are still empty spaces there, you can still spawn monsters there." The Paladin's companion didn't want to waste time talking to his wooden friend, so he dragged the latter to another open space.
As a result, when he turned around, puff——!
The giant dragon above suddenly spewed out flames.
The flames spewed out from left to right at a constant speed. Wherever they passed, they were instantly burned to black ashes, leaving no grass behind.
At the same time, a row of bright red damage values popped up, and the players who had not escaped the spray range screamed in surprise. Then, one after another, they fell to the ground and quickly became dead. Some even dropped one or two backpack items. The dead players were heartbroken and groaned in pain.
This is one of the dragon's skills, the Fire Dragon Breath. The spray range is a 100-degree fan-shaped area with a radius of 30 meters. This skill is released irregularly, and the dragon can spit at any time, but it will raise its head before releasing it.
As soon as you see this action, retreat immediately.
The dragon is level 35, with a total health of 585,000. Even if a level 10 player is hit by its skills, it can still turn into ashes.
Just now, Xia Mo saw the giant dragon raise its head and retreat instantly, avoiding the attack.
However, this retreat could not solve the fundamental problem, because the dragon had already set its sights on her.
Due to the overly powerful bombardment of [Comet Storm], its hatred, which originally had no specific target, instantly shifted to Xia Mo.
The crimson eyes stared at her, and a sense of oppression from the ancient behemoth came over her like a sandstorm.
Some players' legs suddenly went weak and they collapsed to the ground.
No one was weak-kneed and subconsciously kept silent at this moment, fearing that saying one more word would attract the dragon's hatred and attention.
Level suppression is no joke. Newbies who have no experience fighting against world bosses can easily break through defense at the beginning.
But is Xia Mo a newbie?
She is a veteran who can't get any older.
When she was targeted by the dragon, she did not panic. Instead, she used her weak body to pull the dragon into the depths of the canyon. She was worried that she would be caught up if she ran too slowly, so she drank another speed potion while running.
The distance between us and the dragon gradually widened.
The other players looked at this scene and were so shocked that they didn't know what words to use to express themselves.
"Pulling monsters? Is that guy crazy?!"
"Is this crazy? She's a magic class, a fragile star officer! She actually jumped over hundreds of soldiers and pulled the aggro. This is the most terrifying thing!"
Everyone knows that magic professions do not have taunt skills. If you want to snatch monsters from hundreds of warriors, you must use brute force output.
However, it is not enough to just be able to output. You also have to move quickly, otherwise the dragon will blow down with its front paw and the player will be killed instantly.
Ordinary people definitely don't have the courage to take such a risk, but that female star official actually...
"Alright, stop being dazed. The dragon has already escaped. Go after it!"
Others shouted a reminder, and the players who were still immersed in the shock that the magic profession could actually pull monsters came to their senses in an instant, raised their weapons and chased after them.
The entire Dragon Valley was packed with people. Even if everyone had a knife or an arrow, it would be enough to slowly lower the dragon's health bar.
Gradually, Xia Mo discovered that the dragon's hatred began to shift towards other players.
So he fired three Star Shocks in a row.
-560!
-540!
-520!
The dragon's hatred was drawn back by her.
The White-Faced Ghost saw her actions clearly, but he didn't understand why she did it: "Black Domain, what does she want to do?"
This isn't a dungeon, what's the point of her pulling monsters?
Heiyu Qingtian frowned as he rode on his mount.
Frankly speaking, Mo Se is the person he finds the most difficult to understand since he entered the game.
When other players heard about their guild's benefits, no one hesitated and immediately agreed to join; some who were not invited by them, after hearing that the guild was very strong, all flocked to apply.
In the words of Baimiangui, those application messages were written like interview resumes, listing all the past gaming careers, levels, and current advantages one by one, for fear that they would not be favored.
But when facing her...
There was no trace of enthusiasm for the Black Domain Kingdom in her eyes, but rather an unusual calmness.
Even when he tried to win her over by offering her a favor, she rejected him without hesitation.
The most difficult people to understand in this world are those who do not show their feelings. Heiyu Qingtian felt that Mo Se was one of them.
She is very strong and you can see her ambition to move up.
But she is unwilling to join a large guild that can help her improve herself. Why?
Black Domain Qingtian narrowed his eyes and didn't respond to White Face Ghost. Instead, he coldly commanded in the guild chat, "Warriors, give up on attracting aggro and switch to DPS. Continue ranged attacks without stopping. Priests, heal according to your assigned kills and don't let your DPS fall."
Although they were not sure about the significance of the Mosela monster, since she was willing to withstand the hatred, why didn't their Black Domain Kingdom take this opportunity to increase their output and improve their contribution to dragon hunting?
Everyone received the order and shouted "Got it" in unison.
On the other hand, the people from Absolute Dynasty also set their sights on this opportunity.
However, they are not as powerful as the Black Domain Kingdom, nor can they seize their monster-hunting territory. But with their current guild of more than 30 people, it is more than enough to compete with individual players for a position.
Lingyun Huangtian gave a look, and Vice President Cuiyan Niaoniao immediately took people to drive them away.
Although the players who were driven away were extremely unhappy, they did not dare to confront the newcomers because they belonged to the same guild. They had to swallow their anger and move to another place.
Seeing Absolute Dynasty performing so well, Xu Xiaobei, who was mixed in the crowd, couldn't help but feel smug. "What do you think, Xiaoyu? I told you I'd pick a good guild, right? It's a shame you two wanted to quit yesterday. If you had, we would have been the ones kicked out."
Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Yes, Xiaobei, you have the best taste~"
"Tsk, I just feel a little sorry for my little money, and yours too. We used it all to buy equipment for Yao He. Look at him, he's now a key member chosen by Lingyun Emperor." Xu Xiaobei looked at Yao He in the front row with envy, his tone sour.
Xiaoyu comforted her, "In order for us to join together, this is indeed the only way. Don't worry, Yao He is now Lingyun Huangtian's subordinate. It will be very convenient for us to do anything in the guild in the future with him."
Xu Xiaobei pursed his lips, revealing an expression that could only be interpreted this way: "That's true. I've already given him the benefits, so he has to help us anyway."
"Hey! Those two priests chatting over there! What are you doing? Your teammates are out of health, and you're still standing there chatting!"
Lingyun Huangtian's roar suddenly came from the voice.
Xiaoyu's face changed, and she quickly pushed Xu Xiaobei away, raised her hand quickly, and threw treatment to the two members assigned to her.
+200!
+230!
A tiny amount of health was restored, and the two members assigned to her couldn't help but grumble.
"Oh my god, such a low blood recovery amount?"
"How did Lingyun Huangtian recruit such a priest? He's such a rubbish..."
"Hey, who's to blame for us not being able to make it into the core membership? Look at the vice president and the administrator, aren't they all assigned the best priests to keep an eye on them?"
"That's true. Forget it. Let's just keep an eye on our health bars. We can't rely on this Sisi Yuyu at all."
…
The two of them spoke quietly, but Xiaoyu heard it anyway.
She glared at the two of them angrily. Seeing this, her two teammates shrank their necks, stopped nagging, and ran to the side to deal damage.
The situation on Xu Xiaobei's side is even worse.
She waved her priest staff, intending to heal her two low-health teammates, but unexpectedly, both of her skills missed.
The two teams that were left alone stared at her in disbelief.
Xu Xiaobei's expression froze, but she quickly glared back, "What are you looking at? It's just Miss! You've never Missed anything when you're fighting monsters!"
It was already speechless that she didn't have blood added to her face, but instead of apologizing, she made excuses.
The hunter assigned to her laughed in anger and immediately reported in a voice chat, "President, Priest Xiao Beibei neglected her duties by chatting privately with someone while fighting monsters. You reminded me to remedy the situation afterwards, but I missed two consecutive healing attempts. My teammates and I are now at low health. I'm requesting to cancel the priest binding so we can take medicine to recover on our own."
The voice was silent for two seconds, and then Lingyun Huangtian's voice rang out: "Okay, you two should be careful."
"Isn't it just a matter of missing twice? You actually went to complain? These two ungrateful bastards, if I had known I wouldn't have let them farm, and they're wasting my mana bar!"
Hearing the hunter complain, Xu Xiaobei was so angry that he kept complaining to Xiaoyu.
Xiaoyu looked embarrassed and didn't know how to comfort Xu Xiaobei. After all, she had been chatting with Xiaobei first, and then Xiaobei made a series of treatment mistakes. No matter from which angle, she was not right.
In order to ignore her complaints, Xiaoyu deliberately ran forward more than ten meters, and after putting some distance between herself and Xu Xiaobei, she said, "Xiaobei, let's not talk about it for now. I'm under a lot of pressure from treating my condition here!"
"Oh!" Xu Xiaobei rolled his eyes unhappily. "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I can fight monsters by myself."
Somehow, her mind suddenly recalled the video of Xia Mo she had seen on the forum, the movement, the spinning...
"Huh, isn't it just luck that I got chosen as a star official? If I had chosen, I could have been number one too!"
She waved her priest staff in defiance, and her only attack skill at the moment, [Holy Strike], flew towards the dragon's heel.
Phew, -1!
A damage value popped up that would make anyone laugh out loud.
"Hahahaha! Look, there's a level 7 priest over there, dealing the lowest damage ever, 1 point! Hahahahaha!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and suddenly, countless eyes were cast towards Xu Xiaobei.
Xu Xiaobei was startled and turned around quickly, but the gazes around her were like thousands of arrows, piercing through her one by one, leaving her nowhere to hide.
She was shocked and helpless. She stood there, her eyes suddenly red and tears fell into the soil.
The ripe tomato crouched down and quickly joined the team, its face full of joy after success.
"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Qingshui, what's the grudge between you and that pastor's sister? That's too mean!"
The ripe tomatoes never expected that Qingshui, who always appeared to be honest and gentle, would actually send people to do things secretly one day.
But this made him even more suspicious. What had the other party done to provoke him that could make the good-tempered Qingshui take action?
He looked at Qingshui expectantly, but unfortunately the latter had no intention of answering him: "Don't worry about it. Okay, quickly pass under the dragon's body and support Mo Se who is pulling the monster."
Qing Shui has been following the scene ever since he sent her the message.
He thought she would contact him after she arrived, but the dialog box was empty and he didn't receive anything.
So I had to keep moving through the crowd until just now, when I finally found Mo Se who was pulling the monster in front.
*
Seeing that the dragon's health was about to fall below 80%, Xia Mo immediately turned around and slid under the dragon's belly.
The giant dragon, who had long been impatient with her, immediately lowered its head and slapped down with its claws!
Xia Mo dodged to the left and avoided the dragon's claws.
The giant dragon roared immediately, and the deafening dragon roar was like a sonic bomb, radiating in all directions.
Flying flowers, fallen leaves, gravel, withered vines...
All of a sudden, all sorts of debris at the bottom of the valley flew out along with the sound waves!
Even though they are just some gravel, the impact force is so strong that when the stones hit the players, they can instantly cut off hundreds of points of their health.
"Damn this stinky dragon, its sonic attack is so powerful!"
"Ah, my blood! I just finished drinking the red potion, and it's gone again!"
"Nurse, nurse, quickly give me back my health!"
…
A wave of long-range sound waves caused chaos among many players.
However, Xia Mo, who was under the dragon's belly, was unharmed.
Of course, this also includes Qingshui and the others who also ran to the dragon's belly in order to find her.
Xia Mo was slightly startled when he saw him and Tomato: "Why are you here?"
Tomato groaned, "Hey, it's all about you..."
Before he could finish, Qingshui interrupted him: "This dragon is not easy to fight. You don't have a priest with you. Join my team and I will heal you."
tomato:……?
He glanced at Qingshui speechlessly. Well, they were both heroes who saved the damsel in distress, but he just couldn't get the credit.
Xia Mo never thought that Qingshui would come to help her.
But since the other party has already sent an invitation, it can give her more protection, so why wouldn't she agree?
So he raised the corner of his mouth: "Okay."
Before pulling her into the team, Ripe Tomato thought she was just a skin of blood left. After all, no matter how strong she was, a level 12 fragile magician had to pull monsters while attacking and dodging, which was very dangerous no matter how you looked at it.
Who knew that when someone came in and saw her full health bar in the team list, the ripe tomato shook and his three views were refreshed again!
"Sister Mo, you didn't even lose blood when fighting the World Boss?" Is this even a human being!
If Ripe Tomato hadn't cleared the level 5 dungeon with her and knew her strength, he would probably have reported the health bar bug by now.
In response to Tomato's exclamation, Xia Mo just smiled, and then started a new round of attacks, constantly moving and bombing under the dragon's body.
Although bosses like dragons are difficult to defeat, they also have weaknesses.
The soft dragon belly is one of them. The reason why Xia Mo pulled the dragon to the depths of the canyon was to create an absolutely safe environment below.
The terrain of the Ta Sheng Dragon Valley becomes narrower as you go deeper. As long as you trap the dragon inside and prevent it from turning around, the safest place is under the dragon's belly.
And naturally everyone wants to go to the safest place.
Seeing this, the hundreds of players who had been chasing the dragon all the way rushed forward excitedly.
However, the thick and powerful dragon tail swept across with a clang, and all the players who tried to get close to it were swept into corpses.
"Lingyun Huangtian, we can't enter the dragon's belly!"
"Yes, the main tank responsible for charging and clearing the way was completely wiped out!"
"Pastor, pastor, hurry up and get some treatment!"
Listening to the anxious feedback from the members in the voice chat, Lingyun Huangtian closed his eyes with a gloomy expression.
Damn it, when I saw that female star officer pulling monsters in the front, I was secretly happy that their main tank (warrior) didn’t have to go on the field, and I got a chance to replenish the health bar for free. Who would have thought that everything was actually her plan!
First pull the dragon to a narrow place and jam it so that it cannot turn around and can only keep its head facing the end of the canyon and its butt facing all players.
The butt doesn’t matter to them, what matters is that the tail is still connected to the butt!
The dragon's tail, with a diameter of three meters, could easily sweep across the field, leaving corpses everywhere! In such a situation, even the best-equipped and most powerful warriors would not dare to charge!
When he thought about the fact that he had lost nine main tanks at once because of this guy, Emperor Lingyun was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
Seeing his furious look, a male assassin suddenly came up through a gap in the corner.
"President, I want to report something to you~"
Lingyun Huangtian glanced at the newcomer and frowned impatiently: "What's the matter?"
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall: "Last night, I, the shepherd boy, and I, who only wanted to sleep every day, were planning to go mining in the Liki Hills, hoping to store more resources for our guild. But then a female star official suddenly showed up and attacked us. And that wasn't enough, she even guarded our bodies! She lied to us time and time again that she'd left, then waited for us to revive and then came back to kill us. Guild leader, that female star official is so arrogant! She doesn't even take the Absolute Dynasty seriously."
When Lingyun Huangtian heard this, his face turned a little unhappy: "Why didn't I hear you say that last night?"
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall lowered his head in guilt: "...Because it's really too embarrassing. I, I can't face your cultivation, President, but just now!"
At this point, he suddenly raised his head and said, "Just now, I watched our main tanks fall one by one, and saw that the culprit behind all this was that female star official. I felt really guilty, so I mustered up the courage to tell you, President..."
The female star official, the culprit...
Lingyun Huangtian narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you saying that the one who attacked you yesterday was this Mo Se?"
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall's eyes were red and he nodded with grievance.
Lingyun Huangtian took a deep breath and clenched his fists under his body.
"Okay, got it. Go back to your original seat." He ordered with suppressed anger, while commanding in the guild channel, "Everyone listen up, in addition to killing the dragon today, you also have a mission that must be completed-"
"—Did you see that female star official named Mo Se in front? Blast her! Blast her until she dares not even set foot in Dragon Valley!"
"Today, whoever kills her the most times will be promoted to management, and will receive a piece of top-grade equipment and a skill blueprint!"
Upon hearing the reward in the voice message, the entire guild was stunned, but soon, a loud and powerful response rang in their ears!
"yes!!!"
