The Black Knights charged in from both sides, blocking the Abomination's path.
He glared at the black-armored warriors in front of him. How dare these two shorty-looking guys block his way! He quickly stepped forward and engaged them in battle.
The clanging and banging sounds blended together as the Dark Knight and the Abomination fought fiercely and evenly.
While the summoned creatures were entangling the abominations, this gave Dugu Xing and his group time to regroup.
The melee classes, who had just dodged the poisonous fog, moved their incapacitated teammates to safety, and then the ranged classes launched another attack on the Abomination.
At this point, the Abomination's total health has dropped below 500. As long as no mistakes are made, the remaining players can still defeat the Abomination.
Looking at the Abomination's stats, it was clear that its health was around 800, but the skill it had just used had caused it to lose health as well.
Unfortunately, Liu Nian lacked single-target damage skills and could only play a supporting role on the sidelines.
Since I have no intention of getting my hands on the boss's loot, what's wrong with just being a bystander?
With no melee units blocking their way, the three archers, who had been idle for a long time, could finally finally hold their heads high.
They vented all the anger they had accumulated over the past period on hatred.
A dense rain of arrows suddenly shot towards the abomination on the other side, the arrows embedding themselves in its body, making it look as comical as a porcupine.
With the ability to pull people out broken and the Black Knight not being too afraid of the corrosive poison, the Abomination was completely overwhelmed by the group after these two abilities failed to perform as intended.
The final blow landed on Dugu Xing's hand, and a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, finally emptying Abomination's health bar.
Its massive body fell straight down, crushing the stone platform behind it and sending up a large amount of stone dust.
[Congratulations to player Liu Nian for successfully defeating the Abomination and gaining 500 experience points]
[The Tarot card's death effect takes effect; the player gains restored health and mana.]
[The Tarot card's death effect has taken effect; the player gains one temporary Soul Power.]
Current Soul Power: 1/190
This time it was in the team channel. Although he didn't land the final blow, Liu Nian still received the experience points reward.
After hearing the system notification, Liu Nian calculated that if he could solo the level 20 boss, he could get at least two thousand experience points.
Even just by playing a minor role, I can still get 500 experience points. It seems that the experience points shared by team members are not low either.
Moreover, not only that, but a few points of soul power were also added to the shrine.
However, this is nothing to be proud of, so we'll leave it at that.
Dugu Xing walked forward alone and picked up several cards that had fallen to the ground. Everyone seemed to take it for granted and showed no surprise.
It seemed that he hadn't gotten any cards to be proud of, and his expression showed no sign of joy.
He quickly returned and showed the cards in his hand to everyone.
[Jagged Blade] (Blue Quality) (One-Handed Sword)
Attack power: 15-20
Strength +3
Effect: Has a chance to cause bleeding, resulting in a loss of 20 health points for 15 seconds.
Level required: 18.
Note: Be careful, this sword is very sharp!
Level 18 is quite high; very few people can achieve it nowadays.
Of course, you can forcibly take it, but there will be attribute penalties, and if your level is not up to standard, there will also be level penalties.
Under the double penalty, weapons with low attribute values are worse off not being used at all.
【Staff of Ares】(Two-handed staff) (Blue quality)
Intelligence +3
Spirit +2
Stand still: A single target affected by Stand still will be forced to remain still for three seconds.
Effect: Increases the effectiveness of magic skills by fifteen points.
Level required: 20
Note: I command you, stop!
No wonder he looked so grim; no one can wield those two top-tier weapons right now, their levels aren't even up to par.
The last one is a prop card: a poison gas bomb.
[Poison Gas Bomb] (Disposable Item)
Effect: Targets within the range of the gas bomb will suffer poison damage and blindness.
Fortunately, there are no level requirements for this.
Dugu Xing politely asked Liu Nian what she needed.
Liu Nian glanced at the card, then asked, "Wasn't my reward agreed upon beforehand? Just pay me according to that!"
Dugu Xing's expression softened slightly, and he stopped insisting.
The subsequent search for Liu Nian was irrelevant; he could simply stay in the courtyard.
Dugu Xing was busy with many matters and it was inconvenient for him to accompany him, so he instructed Lei Lan to take good care of Liu Nian and meet all his needs.
His intentions were good, but it made Liu Nian secretly complain.
With Lei Lan around, Liu Nian found it difficult to check the recruitment panel and could only chat with her about trivial matters.
Of course, in the end, none of them met Meng Ziyi.
Dugu Xing and Liu Nian left the club side by side and headed home.
On his way back, Liu Nian carefully memorized the route. To him, the corpse was more important than his equipment.
At the very least, it will be a Dark Knight, of course, a Dread Knight would be best, but a Death Knight would also be acceptable; I'm not picky.
Having lost many men in succession, everyone remained silent the entire way.
To make matters worse, apart from the Shield Guard, none of the targets infected by the poisonous fog survived, succumbing to the subsequent toxin damage.
Not everyone has an antidote, and unfortunately, none of the other healing units have learned dispel magic.
Dugu Xing looked at Liu Nian with a complicated expression. If he hadn't brought Liu Nian with him this time, the entire army might have been wiped out.
He valued Liu Nian even more in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
The round trip took quite a bit of time.
As the sun began to set, Dugu Xing warmly invited Liu Nian to stay there.
As the sun began to set, Liu Nian agreed to Dugu Xing's request.
Upon hearing Liu Nian's agreement, Dugu Xing was overjoyed, and Lei Lan turned and left to arrange accommodation for Liu Nian.
After everyone went home to change their clothes, they returned to the living room to sit and chat. Liu Nian seemed a little uncomfortable seeing so many people, but fortunately, it didn't last long before the banquet began.
The group moved over and saw that the banquet looked quite lavish, with more than a dozen tables set up in the dining hall.
Dugu Xing stood at the head of the table, surrounded by a crowd of admirers, and delivered some inspiring words, which received support and enthusiastic applause from the audience.
Liu Nian was seated at the main table and had no choice but to sit there.
Soon, dishes were served one after another. They were about to offer Liu Nian a drink, but she refused.
He declined, citing the need to remain calm.
Everyone was drinking and eating, having a great time, but Liu Nian felt out of place among them.
Unable to taste the food, Liu Nian left the table under the pretext of needing to use the restroom.
Back in the room that had been arranged beforehand, Liu Nian took out the food she had brought with her from her spatial storage to eat.
He ate his simple food with a sense of contentment, secretly lamenting that he really couldn't fit into the group; he was truly a loner.
Having lived alone for so long, I seem to have lost all interest in anything, and I've even become numb.
Everyone has their own way of living, and you can't force them to.
Moonlight streamed through the window, and just as Liu Nian was filled with emotion, there was a knock on the door.
