Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 114 Team Combat
In the center of the woods was a huge curtain covered with thorns. The tree spirit incarnated as the [Guardian of the Woods] was attacking the black thorns that suddenly appeared.

But [Ou Fei] not only endured the attacks, but also continuously grew [Corrupted Whippers] with black coats outside the black thorns.

Although they are only level 10, thanks to their built-in anti-injury ability [Thorns], the Woodland Guardians will suffer huge damage even if they clear out the dark creatures.

Whenever the tree spirit is seriously injured, the [elves] will emerge from the dense forest and heal the wounds of the guardian of nature.

Therefore, the battlefield in the center fell into a stalemate. The tree spirits could not break through the curtain of black thorns, and Ou Fei could not continue to reduce the combat power of the tree spirits.

This balance lasted for 10 minutes, until the players' resurrection weakness ended.

The players suffered their first plot kill, but this death did not dampen their enthusiasm. Instead, they wanted revenge even more because of the monster's strength.

The resurrection location is an open space at the edge of the dense forest. Outside are other maps, with the map boundaries separated by a golden halo.

[Mission Objective: Defeat Ou Fei]

[Task Reward: Spread the Deeds]

[Special note: The story of the winning players in the closed beta will be brought to the public beta, and can be triggered by other players through Easter eggs]

It's not about the equipment or the effects, but about being able to record your heroic deeds in the game. How can such a mission not be exciting?

Those present were veteran players who had played various major games, and they were the only 40 remaining core players who had experienced the complete content of the internal beta test.

For this mission, they reached a temporary cooperation, with Maple Leaf, Ryzen and Dolly commanding the players' team operations at the same time.

The maximum size of a squad is 5 people, and the maximum number of people in a team is 40, consisting of 8 squads.

After turning on the team mode, everyone can see the green health bar of 40 people. At the same time, the team editor can be seen in the game interface, and the team leader and deputy team leader organize and adjust each team.

Most of the players in the team came from the ice field. In the first firefight, both the players on the Ryzen and Dolly sides had hatreds of varying degrees, so the team leader chose Maple Leaf from the jungle.

The first thing Maple Leaf did was to arrange a balanced professional composition for each team.

"The poet who has learned the power of the wild bear can be in the front row. Type 1 in the team and tell me. One of the two healing professions in team 3 should go to other teams. If anyone of you wants to smuggle, talk to me."

"Team 5's DPS are all ranged, so don't apply for a place as an assassin. Whoever has better equipment posts on the public screen. I'll pick the team's main tank."

Integrating team resources is the most tiring task, especially when the team leader is not familiar with most of the players.

After arranging the team composition, the players started towards the center of the jungle, and everyone followed Team 1.

Team 1 represents the strongest combat power of the team, with one more healer than other teams, as well as the two strongest output players in the team.

Although Maple Leaf is the team leader, she also gave one of the positions to Fat Cat, and the other output is of course Dolly.

The main tank is played by Ryzen. As the boss of the studio, he has the strongest equipment. In addition, his skills are far superior to other fighters, so he naturally becomes the MT.

The two nurses of the team are Gin and another priest from Ryzen Studio. Both of them play the game with their brains. As long as the mana is sufficient, they will not let Ryzen fall.

"After this battle, the closed beta will be over. Don't be stingy with your money. Exchange all your resources for food and potions."

On the players' paths, tree spirits took the initiative to offer deals to them, offering a large amount of resources in exchange for just a small amount of copper coins.

This is the final bonus, each player fills up a whole package with food and potions, ready to go.

Under the black thorn curtain, Ou Fei sat on a throne surrounded by thorns, her face full of pain and her eyes closed.

"It tastes terrible."

The woman spat out several feathers and flames suddenly appeared on her skin, but they were quickly extinguished by thorns.

After consuming the Apostle of the Holy God, her level increased from 15 to 20.

But this is not enough. The interval between this resurrection is too short, and she needs more materials to restore her strength.

"Let me think, the magic circle for summoning demons should be like this."

Ou Fei hooked a circle of thorns with her hands, directed the thorn bushes to form a symbol for summoning the devil on the ground, and then used the apostle's feather as a medium and whispered the summoning spell.

"The demon who betrayed God has awakened from hell."

The pure white feathers gradually turned black, and countless bird-men with black feathers flew out from the magic circle.

They are called [Crowmen]. They look like crows but have human body structure. The powerful Crowmen have intelligence that is no less than that of humans.

However, due to Ou Fei's limited strength, the Crowmen she summoned were only first-level [Fallen Crowmen]. These aggressive creatures had no reason and would attack all living things except Crowmen.

Including Ou Fei herself who summoned them.

“It’s barely enough to fill my stomach.”

The black thorns pierced through all the Crowmen that pounced on Ou Fei, quickly absorbing their vitality and feeding it back to their master.

In addition to attacking Ou Fei in the center, the mad crow people also rushed to the surroundings of the black curtain because they sensed the powerful vitality outside the curtain.

"Quack, quack."

The crows let out unpleasant screams, and they were not afraid even though their companions died one after another.

After slaughtering countless demons, the shadow of a raven finally appeared on the magic circle.

"Ou Fei."

Hundreds of ravens formed a black mask. This was the Pillar of Hell belonging to the Crowmen, [Twilight Demon Saiwin], ranked seventh.

Because it was the real body who came forward, Ou Fei, as an apostle, could only stop eating and at the same time open a hole in the black thorn to release the crow people under the curtain.

At the same time, Ou Fei let the thorns rise higher and higher so that the Crow Man could not reach her.

After stopping Ophi from brutally eating her own offspring, Seven's shadow exerted his power over the Crowmen.

All Crowmen that emerge from the circle must leave the veil and plunder lives in the dense forests outside Blackthorn.

With the Crow People joining the battlefield, the tree spirits in the dense forest are no longer able to find time to attack the Blackthorn.

They could only resist the demons while watching the black thorns continue to drain the vitality of the forest.

The barren land spread outward from the center, and more and more flowers and plants withered due to loss of vitality.

The Crowmen that walked out of the curtain were even more brutal. Although they were demons, they were able to manipulate the natural power of wind to greatly increase their movement and attack speeds.

The slow-moving tree spirits find it difficult to hit these Crowmen, while the agile Crowmen can pick on the fragile elves and attack them.

Now the battle has finally begun to take its toll, as the Woodland Guardians fall one after another, becoming lifeless stumps as they die, before being drained of their life force by the Blackthorns.

Just when the jungle forces were in crisis, the players finally arrived in time and the final battle finally began.
