The battle between Cheng Peng and the three ancient warriors took less than five seconds from start to finish.
But this five-second battle was extremely fierce, and could even be said to be "tragic"!
One of the three ancient warriors was blown away, one was pierced by a spear, and the other was knocked to death. Cheng Peng himself had his arms cut off, and his internal organs could be directly seen in the two wounds between his waist and ribs.
In terms of injuries, it was even worse than the three ancient warriors who died in battle.
There's nothing he can do about it - his current state is not very suitable for a long-term battle, especially when his opponents are three powerful and fierce ancient warriors. The longer he delays, the more unfavorable the situation will be for him.
So after Cheng Peng knocked Tarik away with one blow, he decisively decided on the next battle strategy.
Rely on speed to gain an advantage, and then... trade injuries for injuries!
With the ability to circulate completely, his vitality is definitely stronger than the three ancient warriors, so if he fights hard, he can continue to persevere as long as he is not killed instantly by one move.
Not only that, as a top warrior, he can not only fight with guns, but also has extraordinary skills with fists and kicks. This is not only an advantage, but also a trump card that can be used.
If you can make good use of your speed and vitality advantages, and use fists and kicks when necessary, you will still be confident even if you fight one against two!
Of course, what's more important is that he has judged from previous battles that these three ancient warriors are just templates for leaders. Although their intelligence is not low, their skills are a bit simple and biased, and they do not possess comprehensive and rich combat skills.
For ordinary players, that cannot be called a weakness at all, but for decision makers like them, it is a flaw that can be exploited.
After all... Cheng Peng and others were judged by the system to have the strength equivalent to the legendary template NPC!
Although in order to prevent the creation of the world from being triggered, I had to suppress a small amount of power and could only exert 80% of my strength. But in this desperate situation, the difference between 80% and 100% is not so obvious...
In short, after a short but fierce battle, he successfully achieved the expected goal of 1v3 and set a new record again.
After the battle, before Shen Qi could go over to help him heal his wounds, blue-gray flames rose up again, sweeping across the entire altar in an instant.
When the flames faded, they had returned to the altar on the ground. Cheng Peng's injuries had completely disappeared, and he was back to standing in front of the stone platform holding Kungunir in his right hand. His left hand was still pressed on the metal book.
As if everything just now was just an illusion.
But looking at the several broken golden armors on his body, and looking at the much dimmed runes around the tip of Kungunir's spear, you know that the fierce battle just now was not an illusion, he was really there.
A battle with three ancient guardians!
Cheng Peng calmed down for a moment and was about to take his hand away from the metal book when he saw another system prompt pop up.
[You completed a contest between ancient heroes, and won the respect of three ancient guardians with your bravery. In addition to being qualified to enter the World Stone, you also received the blessings of the ancient guardians. ]
[Within seventy-two hours of entering the World Stone Fortress, you will obtain the following beneficial status in this instance:]
[Talik Defender's Blessing: An invisible shield surrounds you, and any physical attack from demons against you will be weakened by 30%! 】
[Blessing of the Guardian of Mardoc: The power of the war song protects you, and your weapons will cause greater damage to demons, and their power will be increased by 30%!]
[Blessing of the Protector of Korik: You have temporarily gained a wise vision, the efficiency of your attacks has been improved, and the possibility of a violent blow in battle has increased by 15%! 】
[Note: If you can defeat Baal, the King of Destruction before the blessings of the three guardians disappear, you will receive additional special rewards! 】
Cheng Peng smiled and showed this reminder to Shen Qi. Her eyes lit up and she started to lower her head and start thinking.
"It's not easy to break through the World Stone Fortress and finally kill Baal in seventy-two hours!"
"If it were easy, wouldn't that special reward be given away for free... How can the system be so kind!" Cheng Peng said with a sneer, "When it comes to special rewards or something, the requirements are usually very demanding. It's not that time is tight,
There are all kinds of perverted restrictions - I have been in the bloody battlefield for so long, and I have encountered many 'special rewards', but I can count them all with two hands... and even Hong
Qi Gong’s hands are fine!”
This little joke made Shen Qi couldn't help but laugh - even she, a British person, knew that Hong Qigong only had nine fingers.
After a while, Shen Qi raised his head, with a little more confidence in his eyes.
"I checked just now, maybe it's in time!" she said, "The World Stone Fortress has a total of five inner and outer floors. The first three floors can only be regarded as paving the way. They are all seven-star monsters of ordinary templates, and occasionally there are one or two elites.
The boss of the template... it shouldn’t be difficult to pass quickly; the fourth floor is the Throne of Destruction. This is a special copy that requires five passes. The enemies will become stronger each time. At the beginning, they are half elite and half ordinary.
, and then each time there is a quarter of the monster upgrade module, and by the last time it was already half boss and half elite, the difficulty is very high..."
"The monster density in the Throne of Destruction copy is very high, so it's really hard to deal with!"
"Fortunately, the number of monsters spawned in all dungeons is determined by the number of people in the dungeon. If we fight, we should only spawn the most basic number of monsters." Shen Qi smiled slightly and said, "The basic number is six, that's right.
That is to say, even in the final battle, we will only have to deal with three leaders and three elites... Just leave the three elites to me. The three leaders are probably similar to the battle just now, so it should be fine."
"Then the final trouble is Baal?"
"Yes... As the final boss of Diablo 2, Baal is very powerful. Even on the lowest difficulty, it is an eight-star elementary elite template monster, and its health value is particularly enhanced; and if it is
For a full 40-person dungeon, it will be upgraded to an eight-star mid-level boss template... Fortunately, we only need to play the lowest difficulty. If it is stipulated that we have to play the highest difficulty, then we might as well just give up!"
Cheng Peng nodded and began to make calculations.
For them now, the most important thing is time. They must seize the time to kill Barr within seventy-two hours. But seizing time... is easier said than done!
The entire World Stone Fortress is a large-scale dungeon. Although there are no restrictions on the mode in which players can team up, there are strict regulations on the size of the team. No matter which player wants to play this large-scale dungeon, he must start at the beginning.
When selecting the team size, the difficulty of the entire instance is derived.
For example: Those guilds that were rushing to open up wasteland and grab the first down at the beginning did not know that having fewer people in the team would reduce the difficulty, making Baal, who was almost impossible to challenge in the 40-player mode, easier to deal with, but
When they entered the World Stone Fortress, they had already chosen a "large-scale team", so even if only one of them breaks into the World Stone Hall where Baal is located, he will only encounter four people.
The eight-star intermediate leader template Baal when forming a team of ten people is not the eight-star junior elite template Baal which is used in a group of five people.
"Considering the difficulty and speed, a five-person team is the most suitable." Shen Qi said, "We need to find three teammates."
"The question is, who should we look for?" Cheng Peng thought and opened the friends panel.
The first thing he thought of was naturally Long Biao, Liu Xuan and Bai Yu. These three were all top players with the same reputation as him. If he and Liu Xueji were added to it, it would basically be the most luxurious five-person lineup in the adventure game.
.
But Long Biao is obviously not free now. He is playing with his daughter! Cheng Peng doesn't want to disturb Long Biao's family happiness with his own affairs, so he can only give up asking him for help.
The relationship between Bai Yu and Cheng Peng is pretty good, and they have a good friendship. But if you want to ask her for help, you must obviously bring Chu Fengge with you... Bai Yu is a person with basically no principles, and he can be easily hired, but Chu Fengge
But she is not so easy to talk to. She has been a little disgusted with things that are too public recently, and she wants to persuade her to join the five-person group's operation to kill Baal... After this operation is successful, a world announcement will definitely be issued in the entire dark world. Chu Fengge is afraid
They won't want to come.
As for Liu Xueji... I don't know why, she rarely goes online during this period. When I called her, the electronic butler answered the phone, and the answer was the same "The owner is busy, so I can't guarantee the online time." In this case, why don't you call me?
Liu Xueji helps? It’s a bit unrealistic.
Fortunately, Liu Xuan is not busy at the moment. Hearing that Cheng Peng planned to challenge Baal on the five-player difficulty level, he immediately volunteered to participate without even waiting for Cheng Peng's invitation. He finally found a reliable teammate.
Shen Qi contacted Yu Fei. This sharpshooter has been adventuring in the world of Star Wars for some time. He has completed the mission of Force Sensing and passed the preliminary Jedi training. He is considered a trainee Jedi Knight.
Now he is looking for an adventure to destroy the devil and save the world, so it is easy for him to ask for help.
"There are already four in the five-person group... The last one should choose a healer, right?"
"Treatment... Liu Xueji has not been online much during this time..."
"Don't just focus on acquaintances, there are many experts who are good at healing in Adventure!" Shen Qi teased as he opened his contact list, entered a few keywords, and screened out a dozen seven-star high-level healing experts.
.
Unfortunately, these strong men are either busy or have just challenged Baal some time ago, and the dungeon cooling time has not yet expired - whether it is a 40-person dungeon or a five-person dungeon, the cooling time is calculated together.
——Shen Qi contacted everyone, but no one was invited.
In this case, she had no choice but to take a step back and go to the Star Gate Auction House to issue a mission to the Mercenary Guild to recruit powerful healing masters with excellent resumes to go to Baal's Throne to kill the Destruction King.
king.
This task was taken over within ten minutes after it was sent out. What a coincidence, the person who took over the task was actually an acquaintance!
"Yun Yu? Have you become a healing type?" Cheng Peng looked at Yun Yu in the contact video and couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Aren't you an explosive type?"
"Yes, it's because I can only burst out with strong combat power for a few dozen seconds in battle, so I'm usually a healer." Yun Yu laughed loudly, feeling proud that he actually scared Cheng Peng.
"It has been almost four months since I switched to the healing department. Now I can be considered a qualified healing department. In addition, I can burst out with sufficient combat power when necessary... I am not bragging. In the mercenary guild of Star Boundary Gate,
I’m very famous!”
So the team was decided. The five-person team, which had been composed of two warriors, a shooter, a magician and a "healing system", would go to the World Stone Fortress after a little run-in.
Try to complete a challenge that no one has been able to complete so far.
Use the lowest number of people to challenge the King of Destruction!
