The shieldbearer was already wounded and far away, and the backup shieldbearer hurriedly walked towards the butcher.
This unexpected turn of events caught everyone off guard.
Liu Nian remained calm and directed the ghouls to hold off the butcher as much as possible, giving the physical damage dealers time to retreat.
At this point, the teamwork of Chen Ling's group becomes very apparent.
Judging from their methodical movements, they must have gone through countless rehearsals.
Several highly agile classes surrounded the butcher, dodging his attacks.
While waiting for the backup shield guards to arrive, a player with relatively high equipment stayed in front of the killer, covering everyone's retreat.
If the ghoul fails, he will decisively step in front.
The five ghouls finally aggroed the Butcher, and the agile classes surrounding him retreated.
The ghouls could only buy them a little time; the butcher's damage was too high, and he killed them all in just a few hits.
After killing the ghoul, the butcher turned and ran towards the person responsible for cleaning up the mess.
Fortunately, while the ghouls bought them time, the physical damage classes were able to regroup and fight back.
The shield guards had also caught up to provide support, holding up their large shields to protect the sweepers behind them.
Seeing that the Shield Guard was about to engage the enemy, Liu Nian once again used Amplify Damage on the Butcher.
After the shield guards engaged the enemy, Liu Nian's curse was also completed.
He then used the corpses of ghouls to summon skeletons to help him.
Nothing went wrong during the summoning. The summoned skeletons were placed behind the shield guards as a precaution.
Until the Shieldbear successfully pulls the Butcher back to the designated location, the physical damage dealers wait to establish aggro before moving in to deal damage.
The ghouls summoned this time did not attack again, but returned to Liu Nian's side.
It had no room to maneuver there, so it felt safer to come back and stay by Liu Nian's side.
When all the professions regrouped behind the Butcher and began a new round of attacks, the crisis was successfully resolved, and Liu Nian deserves much credit for this.
Chen Ling, who was watching from the side, was thinking about something else.
After several rounds of summoning and casting spells, he still seemed to be handling it with ease; this man's mana was indeed a mystery.
It's no wonder she thought that way; every mage's mana is ten times their intelligence, and his continuous spellcasting had clearly exceeded that value.
Either he has equipment that restores mana, or he has equipment or items that increase intelligence.
This person is very valuable; we should try to win him over again.
Zhou Momo seems to have said that he is still single, which can be used as an opportunity.
Wealth, status, power, and beauty—everyone has weaknesses, and he is no exception.
Thinking of this, Chen Ling looked at the now clear situation and whispered something to the few healing classes around her who had no mana.
As expected, this time, in addition to his heavy blow and concussion, the Butcher also has a ten-second life link as a weakness.
Every time he casts the Life Link, he gets surrounded and beaten up by the crowd.
Without the Berserker's healing assistance, the Butcher eventually fell on the platform and was defeated by the combined efforts of the group.
Since there is no team effect, kills depend entirely on individual skill, and the person who lands the final blow receives all the experience points.
Seeing everyone cheering excitedly on the platform, he had no idea who the lucky one was.
Liu Nian certainly didn't manage to kill the boss; that's the downside of mages—the casting time is a major weakness.
As for the boss's loot, no one picked up the items on the ground without Chen Ling's permission.
As Chen Ling walked toward the butcher's corpse, the crowd made way for her.
"They're very well-organized," Liu Nian thought to himself as he read this.
After a lot of effort, the butcher I defeated only dropped a bunch of crowns and three cards.
[Weapon Card (Blue Quality): Executioner's Axe (Two-Handed Axe)]
Attack power: 20-35
Effect 1: There is a chance to cause bleeding effect on the target after hitting it.
Effect 2: There is a chance to reduce the target's maximum health after hitting the target.
Note: This axe has drunk the blood of countless living beings.
This is the first time a weapon with an attack power exceeding 30 has appeared, but the weapon's penalty value is also very high.
With an attack speed of up to three seconds and a power limit of seven points, each swing of the axe consumes ten stamina points.
However, none of this can conceal the power of this axe. A mage with such a physique would be instantly killed if their maximum health was reduced by it.
If I were his opponent, I would have to control him or kill him immediately; getting close to him would be a nightmare.
[Equipment Card (Blue Quality): Mystic Robe (Upper)]
Defense: 2-3
Magic Defense: 3-5
Effect 1: Increases the power of nature spells by seven points.
Effect 2: Reduces mana cost by 5%.
Note: This was the beloved possession of the abbot of the hermitage.
It's a good item, but nature magic isn't suitable for me, and I don't care about the mana reduction!
Liu Nian turned her gaze to the last card.
[Item Card: Heavenly Book of Escape Techniques (Fire)]
Effect: Transforms into a pillar of fire for ten seconds, scorching surrounding enemies.
Seeing Chen Ling looking in this direction, Liu Nian said, "I don't want the equipment, but I'll keep this item card."
Hearing Liu Nian say this, Chen Ling breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that he would want the robe.
He had made it clear beforehand that he had the priority to choose the cards.
However, both pieces of equipment could greatly increase her strength, so she was having a hard time choosing between them.
Now that he's asking for props, I'm happy to do him a favor.
After Liu Nian received his payment, the group headed home in a large group.
Because Liu Nian needed the body, he did not go down the mountain with Chen Ling.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ling didn't say anything more and left with the others.
The two agreed to go back together.
Unfortunately, Liu Nian didn't have a car.
"Nightingale, what are you going to do about him?"
On the way down the mountain, Chen Ling deliberately stayed behind to distract the crowd and spoke to a woman alone.
"Yes," Nightingale said, then veered off the main road and disappeared into the woods.
At this moment, Liu Nian was staring blankly at the corpse on the mountain.
You do not own the body; please wait patiently.
Is this even possible? How tacky!
You are the rule, and you make the decisions.
Liu Nian lay on the stone steps of the platform and took out the Intimate Paradise app to slack off.
About five minutes later, Liu Nian used the soul-summoning spell on the corpse again.
You can spend 100 Soul Power to summon one Dark Templar and one Wraith. Units summoned using Necromancy are not subject to skill cap limitations.
Confirm Summon?
【whether】
"yes"
As soon as he finished speaking, two undead units separated from the boss's corpse: a Dark Templar and a Wraith.
At this point, the boss's corpse was destroyed, and its original appearance could no longer be seen.
After storing them in his spatial storage, Liu Nian began his descent down the mountain.
A Dark Templar requires 70 Soul Points and 30 Shadow Points.
As he walked, he thought to himself, "What about vampires and horror knights in the future?"
My soul power is so low, how can I restore it? How can I increase it?
In the nearby woods, a strange glint flashed in the nightingale's eyes before it quietly slipped away.
On a branch not far from her, a crow was silently watching her.
The cawing of crows suddenly echoed through the woods.
Liu Nian knew that someone was watching her, but there was nothing she could do about it.
When he made the bizarre request for the body, he knew this was how he would end up.
Now is the time to partner up, and she hasn't broken any rules. Are we just going to eliminate her?
After descending the mountain, at Chen Ling's invitation, Liu Nian got into her car again.
Zhou Momo and Ruan Xin were not in the car this time; another woman was in the car instead.
After Chen Ling's introduction, Liu Nian remembered that it was Chen Ling who had healed the main shield guards; she was a priest.
Having defeated the butcher, the heavy weight on Chen Ling's heart was finally lifted, and the atmosphere in the car became much more cheerful.
Whether at Chen Ling's behest or not, this sweet-looking woman sat next to Liu Nian, intentionally or unintentionally getting closer to her.
The honey trap, simple and unpretentious, leaves those who fall for it with no chance of redemption!
Meanwhile, Zhu Shao's men clashed with the guards at the city gate.
