"Pull the position a little lower and walk slowly... Oh, don't forget to turn in a circle. Let's start again."
"Soul Hunter, your output is too weak. Do you need me to find a weapon for you? If not, just hold the sword with both hands. I can't stand this cumbersome sword swing...
.”
"Try to stabilize the position of the BOSS so that we can have a stable space to play. If the battle lasts longer, the possibility of making mistakes will be greater."
"Hurry up and get to the second stage, okay? Miss Murong is waiting so hard that the flowers are about to wither. If it drags on any longer, all the monsters in front may be refreshed!"
The intermittent command voices echoed around the river beach as the team of Linyuan Duanshui continued to open up wasteland. At the same time, the five players continued to run away and flew back in white light.
, the joy that originally came from seeing the progress of the BOSS battle slowly disappeared as the group was destroyed again and again, and was replaced by increasingly numb expressions. It seemed that they knew the team well.
How much sacrifices she had made in order to create opportunities for herself to practice throwing bottles. The apologetic look on Murong Qingchun's face, which had never been directly involved in the battle, became more and more obvious. She looked at the giant bird that returned to the
The backs of the team members in front of the crocodile rushed forward to fight again, and the hands holding the ordinary vial began to turn white: "Then, that..."
"Don't worry, they seem to be getting used to it."
The indifferent expression flickered for a moment as a few stone thorns flew out. The magician named Linyuan Duanshui still stared closely at the trio entangled with the BOSS in front: "No more deaths."
If you do this a few times, you should be able to enter the stage of summoning cubs very skillfully."
"The next time will belong to you." He pointed to the small bottle in the girl's hand and grinned slightly: "When you have mastered the action of throwing the bottle, we will start the next stage of the battle.
.”
"Next stage?"
"Although these mobs can be controlled, the anesthetic effect of weak anesthetics cannot last too long."
The spell-casting movements on his hands did not stop, and Linyuan Duanshui's voice was as steady as the magic he used: "Our team has limited strength and cannot kill the BOSS while dragging the mobs, so we can only practice delaying the BOSS's attack first.
method, and then...take advantage of this short control period to kill the little crocodile."
"Kill him?" The little girl with a startled expression pointed to her chest in a hurry: "No, no, I can't do it."
"You don't have the ability to attack now, so of course it's not up to you." Linyuan Duanshui said with a low smile: "The little crocodile doesn't have much health, but it is very fast. If you want to kill it, you can only take advantage of it to pounce.
This moment on the surface of the water, these few seconds of being frozen by you. If you succeed, the soul hunter and I will change the target together and focus on destroying the crocodile cub, otherwise when the next one comes out..."
"Wait a minute, what's next?" The girl's face turned a bit paler: "How many cubs does it have?"
"According to my guess, until it falls... the effect of the summons will not stop."
Looking at the thrilling scenes of the highly concentrated trio dancing with giant crocodiles, Linyuan Duanshui's voice became much deeper: "As long as the BOSS's health drops to a certain level, it will summon those little ones.
The crocodile came to help, and if we want this battle to continue normally, we can only deal with it quickly while the number of enemies is not yet established."
"Although we don't have a healing profession, we are all weak and weak people who will be killed in one hit anyway... It doesn't matter anymore." Having said this, he gestured towards a location not far away: "You want to
What we need to do is practice this process well until it can reach a level below the limit of zero fault tolerance, and then... push BOSS to the next stage."
"Yes, there's more?" The little girl's expression turned almost mournful: "We, can we really defeat this guy?"
"It doesn't matter, you have done enough."
Looking around the river beach quickly, Linyuan Duanshui tugged at the corner of his mouth: "If we can really hit that point..."
"Leave the rest to me."
Scattered and orderly footsteps were accompanied by three or two figures that were constantly entangled around the crocodile, which kept appearing on the edge of the river beach. With the crocodile's constant rotation back and forth, it slowly approached the center of the river beach, which was further away from the water.
, the offensive and defensive battle that gradually progressed smoothly once again led to the screams of the gnawing BOSS. At the same time, there was also the black shadow of a small crocodile that suddenly flew out of the water. Stand early.
At the predetermined location, the girl player, who still had a look of panic on her face, accurately threw the potion bottle in her hand on the little crocodile, and then, with no effect, was killed by the little crocodile.
The little crocodile bites into a white light that fills the sky: "...very good."
"That's almost it. Let's do it for real next time."
Walking out of the tent after rebirth, the gray-robed magician once again stuffed a small bottle filled with transparent potion into Murong Qingchun's arms: "Remember the feeling just now, as long as we stay still, we will attack."
"Will our tactics actually work?"
Not immediately following the magician's footsteps, the player named Exile Warsong raised his own question for the first time since the start of the battle: "This will undoubtedly lengthen the battle time again, we..."
"This is a desperate battle. I should have warned you from the beginning."
Turning his head slightly, the magician showed his silent face in front of them: "Recall the purpose of your coming here and what you said before. If these are not enough, then you can remember
Stay a little longer.”
"Trust me." He took the lead and walked forward again without looking back: "Remember to listen to my orders later, as long as you react quickly enough..."
"Hope can always be seen."
As time went by, dusk once again enveloped the sky over the jungle, and the figures of several people constantly going in and out of the woods began to grow longer. They practiced a few more times with a girl who was throwing a bottle.
Several newbies this time also put away the confusion that briefly arose in their hearts, and once again devoted all their energy to the BOSS battle in front of them. As the number of attempts increased again, the little ones jumping in the water were
The success rate of this step under the control of the crocodile also began to increase a little with the efforts of the clumsy girl, and the commanding voice belonging to the magician that had not changed for a long time finally began to change a little: "Turn to fire! Target crocodile
Cub!"
"The formation change must be quick, unless you can guarantee that the crocodile will not bite you to death! Soul Hunter, have you mastered the three-stage slashing technique I taught you?"
"Burst output, do you understand burst? The effect of the potion only lasts ten seconds!"
"Three, two, one... very good, go back and continue killing the BOSS, that's the rhythm."
After several rounds of running-ins, several people stood on the edge of the river beach again. The beginning this time was no different from usual. The only difference was that Linyuan Duanshui suddenly took out a few small bottles from the package:
"Take these and drink them as soon as you are asked to drink them."
"oh oh."
"Okay, the rest is as usual, let's go."
The scene of everyone taking their places then started again with the small bottle thrown by the magician as usual. The trio from the Novice Village, who were already very familiar with the BOSS, then ran to the crocodile that bit the blood bottle where it fell to the ground as they had practiced before: "
Block!"
The harsh sound of metal friction echoed in the mid-air on the river beach as the Exiled War Song raised its shield to block. Accompanying it was the sound made by the monster when it bit into the surface of the worn-out buckler and was forced back.
He took a few steps and ignored the strong pain coming from the front of his left arm. In two steps, he returned to the position where the other two players who passed him were stuck: "Come and hit me, you bastard."
Crocodile!"
Click!
It seems that he has long been accustomed to the provocation of these little bugs around him. The gnawing attack from the giant crocodile soon appeared directly in front of the Exile Song. However, the shield player who had also been accustomed to its attack routine jumped away.
Its bite fell into the air, and instead a large number of stone thorns flew into its mouth. The slashes from the other two players on both sides of the body then attracted its attention.
It came over, and at the same time, the pain from being pierced in the mouth became more intense. It twisted its body and then opened its bloody mouth towards the soul hunter beside it, and then quickly like a twisted poisonous snake.
The ground bit it.
"Twirl around!"
Another loud snapping sound appeared in the air as the soul hunter took two steps back, passing by half of the figure left behind when he dodged. He was completely unmoved and ignored it.
The ferocious head with a long snout that was close at hand continued to move slightly in the direction in which the giant crocodile turned: "It's your turn!"
The loud metal shock then echoed on the other side of the giant crocodile's arched body, accompanied by the bright light of the hammer that Alastor had just lifted from there, and it obviously dropped a few points.
The boss with high blood volume then quickly twisted his body back like a bowstring and bit back towards the other side of the waist. Alastor, who had no greed, then moved counterclockwise as the team had practiced before.
The direction began to turn, and soon the soul hunter on the other side was standing on the same straight line with the BOSS as the center. The exiled war song, who was responsible for attracting attention, also came to it with a shield and waved the shield.
The crocodile's head, which failed to attack again, attracted the crocodile's head back: "Very good, very good, good boy, don't move...come and hit me!"
"That's its weakness."
He threw a stone thorn summoned into the air in the direction of the crocodile. Linyuan Duanshui, who was standing in the distance and responsible for reminding and commanding, smiled and said to himself: "Although this move of twisting and chewing is very scary.
, but it is also designed by the system to be at the highest level of use, so once an enemy appears on its side, it will give priority to using this move."
"By blocking the position and then turning in circles to avoid its attack, you no longer have to deal with its other powerful skills such as leaping and flying to keep this crocodile that can only turn in circles in place."
Taking advantage of the opportunity for the crocodile to open its mouth again, he threw a few more stone thorns into the crocodile's mouth, then looked at the health bar that appeared in the center of his field of vision and dropped a little again, and took a deep breath.
Tone: "...Miss Qingchun! Get ready!"
"Yes Yes!"
A nervous response then appeared in the middle of the river beach not far from his ear. Along with the posture of a girl who had raised the medicine bottle early, it spread to the direction of the Gmenan River, and a small black shadow appeared.
Then he crawled out of a corner there with a familiar scene, and was hit by the medicine bottle thrown by the little girl: "Hit, hit!"
"Turn the heat!"
The galloping footsteps were accompanied by a strong sword light that suddenly landed on the head of the little crocodile that was anesthetized by the drug. Accompanying it were several stone thorns belonging to Linyuan Duanshui. The soul hunter was familiar with the road.
The hunter then raised his long sword with both hands and slashed three consecutive sword rays at the little crocodile, whose belly was turned up because he could not move: "Newbie King, three consecutive slashes! Drink!"
"Stop being cool! Just chop him to death!"
"You know what, how can a slash with no momentum kill it in one blow?"
"Only a ghost would believe your theory... Hurry up, there's still one person missing here!"
Blinking his eyes between the splashing blood and the rising dust, Murong Qingchun, who was left behind, looked at the swordsman who quickly returned to his position after killing the monster with his shining eyes.
The handsome back, but before any strange thoughts could arise in her mind, the reminder from Linyuan Shuishui rang again. The next small crocodile jumped out of the water and soon appeared in more than ten seconds.
In front of the team, and then torn into pieces by the combined efforts of the novice swordsman and the gray-robed magician in the same battle rhythm. The giant crocodile, which was injured one after another, seemed unable to accept the tragedy of his cubs being killed one after another.
As a result, a faint black smoke began to emit from the whole body: "Hiss——!"
"……finally come."
The surrounding smoke then turned into black light in the air, radiating out from every inch of the scale gap of the motionless crocodile. Linyuan Duanshui, who gradually retracted his spell-casting action, then shook his head and let out a sigh, facing towards
Looking at the other cute teammates who were also stunned by the changes that happened in front of them, they shouted loudly: "It's the third stage! You only have one chance!"
"Drink the medicine!"
He roared, and at the same time pointed in the direction of Murong Qingchun, an earthen wall covered with vines and thorns then rose in front of the river not far from the little girl, closing the area where he had just wanted
The next little crocodile jumped up and blocked it. (To be continued)
