Online Game: Super Beast Tamer

Chapter 433: Plaza Area and Gatekeeper Boss (4k, please subscribe~)

A big fish, two people, and a few small pets followed them. They successfully passed through the messy stone forest and came to the square in front of the palace.

Here, there are many "fishmen". They are not the kind of fishmen like Finley, but fishmen that are a bit similar to "orcs". Most of the special effects are the same as humans, but when it comes to the head, there is a very big change, and it becomes a fish head.

Their bloodline may be closer to Zuoemon...

These fishmen were shackled and dressed in tattered clothes. The weapons they used to attack people were all their working tools - hammers, chisels, shovels, buckets...

As soon as they see people, they will immediately launch an attack. The refresh speed is very fast, almost endless, and they don’t drop things or give experience. It is almost impossible to enter the palace after clearing them all. Fortunately, the method to crack it is very simple.

Even players who enter this dungeon for the first time can quickly discover that among this group of murlocs, there are several muscular, shirtless, whip-wielding Naga overseers. As long as they are killed, the murloc workers they manage will scatter and flee and no longer refresh.

The coordinates of these supervisors are also pseudo-random. There are 30 points in total. In the Abyss difficulty, 22 of them are selected for refresh each time. In the process of racing, finding the supervisor is a test of luck. If you are lucky, you can save time if you make the right choices. If you are unlucky, you will waste two or three minutes to find all 30 points.

In a race, two or three minutes is a huge difference.

Butterfly Whisper and his companions arrived earlier than Su Ming and his companions. They had already found two overseers and were killing them. When they noticed Su Ming and his companions coming, they told Su Ming the coordinates of the overseers who were out of the hunter's field of vision that the hunters had found out with their hounds.

In the team channel, everyone is reporting their skill cooldowns and recording their own consumption. Although they speak frequently, the information is concise and does not sound noisy.

These are all Butterfly Whisper's requirements. In her team, she doesn't like the same information to be shouted more than ten times... Anyone who fails to meet this requirement will be kicked out by her, no matter how skilled they are.

Butterfly Whisper is a "tyrant" in the team, which is a bit similar to Venus.

People on the forum speculated that because the two had similar personalities, Butterfly Whisper, who had never joined a guild, would work for Venus.

In fact, the real reason is that the contract Venus gave was generous enough, and his personality seemed to be just an assist...

After Butterfly Whisper covered Su Ming and Light Vanished with the buff, she said:
"Spores, kill the overseer that you can see first. After we deal with this one, we'll go find the overseer that's out of sight."

"it is good."

There are about seven or eight visible overseers in the square, each with two million health points. In the wild, they have the strength of a dark gold BOSS, but in the Abyss difficulty dungeon, they are just stronger elite monsters.

"We'll kill two of them directly." Su Ming said to Guangming Fading, "I'm going to start the monster. An Yi, you stand next to Guangming and protect her. Don't let the murloc workers get close to her."

"kindness."

Several Naga supervisors in the square have already seen Su Ming. They whipped their whips, making a sound of breaking through the air. Many murloc workers suddenly appeared on the field and surrounded Su Ming and his team.

After receiving Su Ming's order, An Yi immediately danced the hammer into a circle, clearing out the monsters around Guangming Vanishing.

On Su Ming's side, Xiao Hei took the lead, staring at the workers' attacks and clearing the way. Dandan flew in the sky, spraying dragon breath to freeze the enemies on the flanks and rear, allowing An Yi to come and reap the rewards. Su Ming and Zuoemon followed Xiao Hei and rushed directly to a Naga supervisor and launched an attack.

There was another Naga Overseer near the one Su Ming chose, within the casting range of his skills. He used the "Perfect Tactics" to teleport Xiao Hei over and then killed another monster.

He used his control skills to quickly increase hatred, and then used his shield to block the whip attack of the overseer. Zuoemon swung his double blades at the side, and with the help of the egg and the defense reduction skills given by the light's disappearance, the blood volume of the Naga overseer dropped rapidly.

The whip of the Naga Overseer is a large-scale attack, which can not only attack players, but also attack the murloc workers, making them become violent. When fighting before, the three teams of 15 people had to be temporarily divided into two teams. The extra people had to clean up the workers who surrounded them. Otherwise, if they just started supervising without dealing with the workers, they would easily be beaten to death.

Anyi's normal attack has a huge damage range and sufficient damage. The cooldown is only the attack interval. His group damage ability is even more terrifying than that of an elemental warlock, so dealing with workers is naturally a piece of cake for him.

The Overseer is a monster that will not actively attack, so after Xiao Hei held one, Su Ming led the Overseers on his side towards Xiao Hei, and soon, the Overseers on both sides joined together.

The buffs of their whips can be stacked, but these buffs only increase attack power and attack speed, not defense, so they are still not threatening. A Naga Overseer with three million health points only lasted for about two minutes in Su Ming's hands. One of them lacked the output of Zuoemon and Dandan, and relied entirely on area damage splash, so it attacked more slowly, but only had about one million health points left.

Su Ming immediately pulled another supervisor in his sight, and repeated the process of clearing the monsters around the center line of the square, slowly approaching the main body of the palace.

Su Ming glanced at the small map. Butterfly Whisper and his team had already begun to clear the Naga overseers on the left wing of the palace. A hunter left the team alone and searched for a spot on the right side. He had already marked the positions of two overseers.

Logically speaking, the overseer on the wing cannot see the player and will not summon workers to attack. If you want to race, you should not have to fight, but the opposite is true.

Although the overseer cannot see the player now, he will be able to find the player after he enters the palace and triggers the alarm.

At that time, they will organize workers to build powerful siege crossbows and artillery to attack players, and they will build them very quickly. There is no upper limit to the number. The longer you delay, the more they will build and the harder it will be to fight them. Many players have been killed by Chujian at this step.

Therefore, no matter what the difficulty of the "Naga King" copy is, you must find the supervisors and kill them all. You cannot skip them to save time.

The above are all the troubles that Naga Overseers can cause. They are relatively weak in themselves. Although they have burst skills that can make the surrounding workers bigger and increase their defense attributes, because there is no invincibility frame, players only need to use the burst skills well and take them away in one wave when the Overseers burst. After the Overseers die, no matter how many buffs the surrounding Murloc workers have, they will run away directly.

Su Ming and his team have fought against the "Naga King" many times, so they would naturally not make mistakes in this early stage.

After clearing the overseers in front, the points have all been marked by hunter players. In order to quickly find the coordinates, the racing team will bring hunters. The low hatred of the hound allows players to quickly open the "map", thus saving time.

In the Naga King dungeon, monsters are densely packed in the early stages, and group attacks are needed. This requires group attack professions such as Elemental Warlocks, Magic Web Warlocks, and Contracted Spellcasters. However, the BOSS has very high magic resistance, and the warlocks are basically useless when they come to the Naga King. If the hunter's equipment is good enough, the trap group damage is barely acceptable, and normal attacks can quickly deal physical damage, which is the traditional optimal solution for this speed output profession.

The non-traditional ones are naturally perverts like Su Ming and the Great Emperor...

In the past, the Miracle Wilderness racing team should have had one more hunter, two elemental warlocks, one iron guard and a guardian. This team was used to deal group damage. When they arrived at the palace, the team would be reorganized, leaving the elemental warlock, and sending three hunters, one healer, one curser and Su Ming to fight the BOSS. However, this time An Yi directly replaced the team, also considering her strong group damage ability.

Su Ming led the team to run to the right. All the fishmen workers following behind were repelled by An Yi. The fighting speed was faster than the previous 15 people. If they could keep it up, the result should be good.

Su Ming and his team came from behind and took eight minutes to clear out the eight supervisors on the right wing, overtaking Butterfly Whisper and their eight-man team. However, they were not too surprised. They practiced with Su Ming every day and had already made some judgment about Su Ming's damage ability.

After dealing with the last supervisor, Butterfly Whisper received the news that Su Ming had completed the task, and said in the team channel:
"Wait for us at the front and go in together. Is An Yi injured? If so, give her some medicine, and pay attention to the dosage (drug resistance)."

"The equipment is a little damaged, I'll polish it for her." Su Ming said.

"kindness."

Su Ming asked An Yi for equipment, sat on the steps in front of the gate, and polished it. After just two rubs, the holes on the equipment disappeared unreasonably...

This was An Yi’s first time experiencing such a high-intensity battle. Her arms and tail felt a little numb, but she felt she could still hold on, so she took the time to rest and relax her muscles.

Guangming Fading took out the snacks he always carried with him and started eating, and passed some to An Yi.

"This is?"

"Potato chips, delicious."

Crunch, crunch, An Yi took some and started eating. She thought this should be something used to replenish energy during the battle.

"The equipment has been repaired. Here it is." Su Ming returned the equipment to An Yi. Seeing her eating, he suddenly thought of something important. He asked An Yi, "An Yi, are you tired?"

NPCs are not players. They have unlimited stamina and it doesn't matter if they get hurt. They will get tired, no matter how badly they are hurt. In this magical world, getting hurt is secondary. A bottle of red can heal it...

"We can still hold on for a while now," said An Yi.

"It's okay." Guangming Fading said to An Yi with a smile, "If you feel tired, just tell me, don't force yourself."

"But..." An Yi was about to act stronger when she saw Guangming disappearing and taking out a black dish. She excitedly handed the dish to An Yi and said with a smile on her face:
"This is a secret recipe of braised toad with sea salt. After eating it, you will feel much more energetic!"

Guangming disappeared and turned his head to whisper in Su Ming's ear:
"It's similar to adrenaline. It's useless for players, but useful for NPCs. When I was doing a mission before, an NPC was about to die before he could finish explaining everything. After taking this, he lived for 10 minutes longer and told me everything. The effect is very good."

Su Ming broke out in a cold sweat. Seeing An Yi, who was frightened by the toads, he asked Guangming to disappear and quickly put the things away so as not to scare An Yi.

"Master, I can hold on!" An Yi shouted, and then whispered, "I don't want to eat this... ugly food."

Su Ming comforted:
"Well, we'll figure it out when the time comes."

The conversation between the two was heard by Light Vanishing. She inserted herself between them and complained:

"Although it doesn't look good, it tastes very good. I'm a master chef. To put it bluntly, with the help of the system, even if it's a pile of..."

“Stop! Stop talking!” Su Ming shouted. If Guangming Xiaoshi really told the truth, not to mention An Yi, even he wouldn’t be able to eat the food Guangming Xiaoshi made…

Light Fading shrugged and said:

"Anyway, I'll trade you a few first, just in case. I'll think about improving the appearance later."

While the two were chatting, Butterfly Whispering and the others finished cleaning up the overseers, returned to the gate, and reunited with Su Ming and the others.

"Cool down." The butterfly whispered.

The team channel became lively. An Yi curiously asked Su Ming what this meant. Su Ming sent the skill message to the team channel while explaining to An Yi:

"It's the magic breathing time."

"Oh." An Yi knew that this was none of her business. She didn't know magic...

After collecting the cooldown time of the entire team, Butterfly Whisper gave the team members 30 seconds to adjust. During this period, she adjusted the team's battle positions, mainly to leave space for An Yi to attack.

Butterfly Whisper pointed to the open space in front of the gate. She took out a bottle of quick attack potion and handed it to An Yi, saying:
"Drink this potion first. When the door opens, you hit this spot as fast as you can. Got it?"

"why?"

Butterfly Whisper said bluntly:

"Follow the order first, and then ask again if you still don't know why after it's over."

Butterfly Whispering mainly felt that there was no need to explain to the NPC, and An Yi would not play the dungeon a second time...

After saying that, she went to check the positions of others.

Behind this door, there is a red Naga named Linissa, who is the captain of the palace guard and the first BOSS that players encounter in the dungeon. She is very powerful and will trigger the "guarding the point" combat mode in advance.

In normal difficulty, you can still hold on, but when it comes to the Abyss mode, facing the Naga soldiers whose attributes have been enhanced 8 times that continuously pouring out of the palace, no team can hold on. The only solution is a round of burst and kill them instantly before she sounds the alarm.

"Are you all ready?" Butterfly asked in a whisper, and everyone answered loudly that they were ready.

An Yi was a beat slow to react, but she also shouted out.

Butterfly Whisper patted An Yi's arm and encouraged her:
"Come on, don't let up."

An Yi always thought that Butterfly Whisper was quite fierce. After meeting her, she didn't dare to look into her eyes. She didn't expect that Butterfly Whisper would encourage her so gently. She was deeply moved, nodded vigorously, and raised the hammer.

Butterfly Whisper walked to the right spot and signaled everyone to drink the potion that increased damage.

Then, she raised her staff and activated the second awakening. All her equipment had the second awakening skills added, which pushed the second awakening to the maximum level ahead of time, which could increase the team's damage by 2%.

Warm golden light illuminated the team, and with Butterfly Whisper's roar, everyone in the team began to attack.

A light green shadow flashed behind the two hunters, and something like a spirit appeared behind them. They also activated their second awakening - Forest Phantom.

Forest Phantom (LV1):
Passive: +20 yards for normal attacks and skill range, can place traps remotely, and can carry +1 number of traps.

Active: Forest Phantom immediately leaves combat and refreshes shield, +150% attack speed, +100 points of maximum movement speed, strengthens trap effect. Lasts 12 seconds. Cost: 1000 mana points, cooldown: 3 hours.

With the terrifying attack speed bonus from the second awakening, the arrows of the two hunters connected into an arrow dragon, bombarding the gate.

Jian Xilai also directly activated his second awakening, gaining an extra 10 yards of attack range, 70% attack speed, and 40% skill cooldown reduction, eliminating the cooldown of Demon Flash. He slashed at the gate frantically, and would suddenly flash every few slashes...

An Yi closed his eyes, shouted and smashed wildly, and the hammer also left an afterimage.

Needless to say, Su Ming's three pets plus a copy egg are all in full force, but he can't benefit from the second awakening of Butterfly Whisper, and his damage statistics are rarely ranked last among the output professions...

The gate couldn't hold out for even a second before it was blasted open by more than a dozen arrows.

The two cursers in the team also spread out the death ripples at the first moment. Due to the advance arrangement, they hit the Naga behind the door in their blind field of vision.

Behind the door, a red-scaled Naga with six arms and six swords woke up. She was still a little dazed. A series of arrows penetrated the muddy water and landed on her accurately. Jian Xilai also came to the Naga with a demon wound and attacked her crazily.

Linissa's total health of 1100 million was decreasing at a rate of more than 90 per second. Because this BOSS did not have a design of "overdamage protection", her only way to deal with excessive damage was to escape. However, two iron guards rushed into the hall at the same time, flanking Naga on the left and right, while Naga was blocked from the front and back by Xiao Hei and Jian Xi respectively, so she had no way to escape and could only swing her sword.

But now the whole team is still bathed in the blessing master's second awakening, and the life is restored very quickly, so Linissa's attack has no effect. More than ten seconds have passed, and she fell to the ground without saying a single line...

In front of mid-to-late-stage players, monsters without system protection mechanisms cannot be called BOSSes at all. After all, when converted, the players are all dark gold and epic-level strongmen...
