For players at level 60 or 70 of the second level, the level 6 manticore is a terrifying creature that poses a huge threat!
Its claws can easily break through light armor, its powerful force can knock players down with brutal force, and it also has a close-range lion's roar with a shocking paralysis effect, a sneak attack and even a deadly cone-sting scorpion tail stinger.
Synonymous with killing machines!
The most troublesome thing is the opponent's flexible flying ability and extremely powerful agility attribute~
In the near future, the most troublesome thing for players is the lack of restraint methods against flying creatures.
Although the strength of players is constantly improving, this only refers to the player's hardware (equipment) level and basic (lv, attributes, blood demon) strength. However, flying, as a talent or high-end skill, requires considerable "authority"
” can be mastered.
If you want to increase your authority and obtain richer means and more powerful special effects, then the only way is to rebirth and advance.
It's a pity that it's easy to level up, but it's not that easy to improve your level~
Not only is the cost of a rebirth huge, but the experience and time consumed in the process are even more expensive. Otherwise, the players would not have been wandering around in the second level since the game was launched~
But precisely because of this, the word "flying" is like a golden apple that can be seen but not obtained, tempting many players!
In the real world, human beings also dream of one day being able to fly freely in the blue sky by relying on their own power without resorting to external forces. However, this is ultimately a dream similar to a fantasy. In today's world of advanced technology, but at most it can only
Using means such as magnetic levitation, people can achieve the ability to fly in the air for short periods of time.
As for imagining how to go wherever you want by waving your wings like a flying bird, maybe it can only be realized in a dream~
But in the world of Invincible Heroes OL, this is not the case!
Not only are there a large number of strange creatures that are born with the ability to fly, but there are also magical spells such as "flying magic". Here, flying in the sky is no longer an unattainable dream~
For example, in the "Star Wars Mercenary Group", the guild's additional battle pet quotas have begun to collectively become "six-legged flying lions". This kind of wild monster is as powerful as a fifth-level mercenary. It has excellent short-distance flight capabilities, and its combat power
Tough, this has brought a qualitative improvement to the overall combat power of the Star Wars mercenary group!
There is also the "Amethysto Harpers" mercenary group. They are the strongest among the elves and have long been equipped with all "Pegasus" weapons. With high-level NPC lords as their backing, their capital is even stronger. It is said that,
Nowadays, the "Silver Pegasus" replacement system has been implemented in the group. As long as group members meet the requirements, they can replace their Pegasus with a more powerful and scarce Silver Pegasus.
What is the game played?
Isn't it just a competition of strength, equipment, and brothers?
Nowadays, in the entire game world, as long as there is a way for team members to fly, such teams are almost always absolute strong!
Without him, there are too many players who want to join their collective, and some people even travel thousands of miles across borders to join!
With such a huge mass base, they can naturally choose the best people to join their team.
Not only is the headquarters strong, but even the reserve corps and subordinate organizations under their command are all strong! They are looking for generous benefits that others cannot give~
The significance of flying is not only its rarity and iconic high-end, but also means a leap in combat strength!
For example, two archers with the same strength, one riding a familiar flying creature, and the other riding a terrain dragon, will definitely be overwhelmed by the other in a fight. This advantage may even be overwhelming~
After all, the existence of flying in the sky means a full range of attack angles, and it is much more difficult to attack the target from the bottom up than to attack on the ground.
If not, the team of 10,000 people from Heavy Hammer Kanter and his team would have been beaten by a mere hundred manticores and a few black dragons without any power to fight back?
The example in front of Liu Yifei illustrates the overwhelming advantage of flying creatures over ground units!
When the flying creatures also have a huge advantage in strength, such a battle has turned into a one-sided massacre...
The manticore that bit off one of the opponent's arms obviously didn't feel that his behavior was too much. He lowered his head and trampled on the unlucky player's leg with one claw.
With such a serious injury, this player is completely disabled and almost impossible to be cured. At this time, will the immediate result be the end?
But that damn manticore seemed to be teasing this opponent. It beat him until he was seriously injured and ignored him. Then he twisted his body and rushed towards another player next to him~
A strong wind blows in my face, and there is a faint sound of wind and thunder!
The manticore's agility is incredible. It is the best among sixth-level creatures, let alone facing ordinary players~
The opponent didn't even have time to turn around and was knocked down from behind by the manticore.
The manticore howled excitedly, raising its claws to give this guy a slap on the back!
"stop!!!"
However, at this moment, an angry tiger roar came from the sky!
The next moment, black light flashed, striking down from the sky like a bolt of lightning, and shot straight towards the Manticore's back!
The visitor was naturally Liu Yifei, who happened to be here.
When I saw that this beast was about to commit another murder, I tried to pounce down to stop it, but it was already too late~
In the flash of lightning, Liu Yifei suddenly lowered his head and saw the paws of the Vampire Earl embracing him from behind!
The next moment, Liu Yifei immediately ordered his servants to throw himself at the manticore like a cannonball.
Although the vampire Earl Wenwen is weak and looks like a frail noble, in fact, as a basic fourth-level creature, a vampire is also a humanoid creature with all attributes enhanced. However, compared to opponents at the same level, his strength attributes are
It’s not outstanding~
As a vampire, the vampire count's advanced form is even more powerful. Otherwise, it would be impossible to fly around in the sky all day long holding a Liu Yifei of the same size.
With this throw, Liu Yifei transformed into a human cannonball and rushed towards the target ahead with the speed of a powerful arrow!
Of course, Liu Yifei didn't expect to use his small body to collide with a manticore.
When he was aiming for the first level, Liu Yifei also added a lot of physical and strength attributes. It can be said that there is no shortcoming in the basic body shape, but now it is no longer possible. Liu Yifei is a serious spell caster. At most, he only added a little more strength and strength.
It's just a physical constitution, but it can't be as crazy as it was in the first level.
Black light flashed, but Liu Yifei had already put away his staff and black magic book.
The next moment, both palms turned into claws, and the magic gloves had once again transformed into the form of demonic claws!
The magic gloves in this form can penetrate even the powerful skin of dragons. Compared with this, this manticore is even more unsightly~
The "cannonball" accurately hits the target with lightning speed!
The black light disappears, and the blood light suddenly appears!
"Roar~~~~~~"
The manticore that was attacked by a sneak attack let out a roar that shook the forest. I'm afraid it didn't expect that it, which was still teasing the weak prey leisurely, would be severely wounded by the enemy the next moment!
The manticore's reaction was not slow. The roar after being attacked was just a subconscious move. The next moment, the manticore stepped hard, but the player lying on the ground who had already stepped on it couldn't help but vomit blood from the pressure!
The force of this step can be as heavy as a thousand pounds! Even the player wearing a half-body armor with high defensive power cannot bear it.
However, compared to killing him directly, this blow only caused him minor injuries. At least he saved a small life.
With the power of this step, the manticore has turned over and jumped away, and the scorpion tail behind it has been whipped back like a steel whip!
The tail whip was as fast as a flash of black lightning, and the needle tip, which was always soaked with powerful poison, pierced Liu Yifei's head like a thorn!
But the manticore's attack in one swing is quite famous.
Nowadays, in the world of dungeons, the higher the player level, the wider the unknown areas they dare to explore. From time to time, various successful or unsuccessful adventure videos are published on the official website.
And the shadow of the manticore can be seen in many of them.
Half of the players caught by manticores in the wild died under the manticore's fangs and claws, and the other half died under the poisonous scorpion tail sting!
This thrust can break gold and crack stones, and even if you avoid the scorpion tail's sweeping attack, the point-to-point stabs are extremely dodgeable. Once hit, the 30 points of HP loss per second will be enough to scare the player unconscious.
! Not to mention that it also comes with a powerful paralyzing toxin. Players can only lie down stiffly and watch their HP drop to the bottom and then fade away~
Even for players who form a team, it is quite difficult to deal with a manticore. The main reason is that the poison on the manticore's tail needle is too toxic. The current antidote is useless, even if you treat it as a poison.
Drinks such as Niuyin can't cure this damn poison at all, but the "Full Complex Potion" that can usually be exchanged for military merit on the battlefield is useful for that thing.
It's a pity that the "full compound potion" is already a panacea that can cure the death of human flesh and bones. As long as there is still a little HP left, you can be resurrected immediately after taking it. It is reasonable to be able to detoxify this poison.
, but who has the ability to use the full compound potion as an antidote?
Even if you have this intention, it is impossible to have enough inventory...
Such a blow would be fatal in the eyes of ordinary players, but at this moment...
Phew~
The scorpion tail poisonous needle was still hit, but unfortunately it was not stuck on Liu Yifei's head, but on the shoulder of the vampire earl who followed Liu Yifei~
After throwing out Liu Yifei, the vampire count could not just stay aside and watch the show. The moment the manticore jumped away, the vampire followed closely behind, trying to sneak up on the manticore's waist from the side.
Generally speaking, the waist and abdomen are the weak points of beasts, and hitting them here is the easiest place to make them lose their ability to resist.
It's a pity that the attack has not succeeded yet, but here they see that their master is in danger!
How about saying that the value of high combat intelligence is far higher than ten levels higher?
Liu Yifei didn't even direct the opponent, the Blood Count had already rushed forward, and while knocking away the scorpion tail poisonous needle, he gave the opponent a slap on the buttocks. However, the manticore counterattacked subconsciously after being attacked, and then stabbed the Blood Count with the needle.
on the shoulders.
"Well done!"
Liu Yifei gave a loud praise, his claws were firmly embedded into the flesh of the manticore's back, and he stamped hard with his feet, leaning back slightly like a tug of war, tearing the bones and flesh on the manticore's back desperately!
"roar!!!"
If the manticore's roar before was still majestic as the King of Darkness, then the manticore is really screaming at this moment~
Not only was it miserable, but even the voice became shriller, as if a man had been hit in a vital part with a kick!
This time it is really cruel~
Although Manticore is tall and big, how can it withstand such ravages from people?
Covered by the magic gloves, Liu Yifei's claws penetrated more than ten centimeters! As Liu Yifei leaned back, the two claws "ploughed" out like a rake loosening the soil!
It's just that the ground is loosened and plowed, and here...
It must be said that this scorpion lion is guilty of evil. The flesh and blood are rolled out, and the wounds are terrifying, as if an alien has committed a crime!
This kind of attack method has been experienced by several black dragons before~
It's just that the same wounds seemed like "troublesome" wounds considering the huge size of the black dragon. The huge black dragon was eventually "grinded" to death by Liu Yifei~
The manticore is only a medium-sized creature, about the same size as a horse. Putting such a wound on the manticore's back will simply kill it!
A ruthless character like Liu Yifei who either doesn't take action or kills him directly will not let the manticore go away so easily~
Knowing that the big man would go crazy from the pain soon, Liu Yifei placed two curses on the manticore's wound when he jumped away.
One is "Damage Amplification" and the other is "Bloodworm Curse".
Not to mention the increased damage, the low-level curse of the standard ghost clan is more practical than anything else. Whether it is Yinman or strong attack, it is the first choice curse of the necromancers.
The "Bloodworm Curse" is a relatively uncommon curse in the dungeon.
The skill itself is only an intermediate skill, but the effect is domineering!
It releases a kind of curse insect called "blood worm" to the target's bleeding damage location.
This curse must see blood, otherwise it will directly fail to be released.
The strange thing is that the curse itself does not add any damage effect, and it cannot even affect the continuous injury effect of bleeding wounds.
Its only function is that the invisible curse insect continuously sucks the opponent's essence and blood to grow at the target's wound location, and then greatly stimulates the opponent's nerves, amplifying the pain the opponent feels a thousand times.
In fact, in the words of players, this is a "torture skill" that is only useful in the hands of NPCs.
Since players have the ability to "resurrection from death", they are not afraid of anything in the game. Once they are cornered, they may disconnect and commit suicide!
Who would suffer such a serious crime inexplicably?
But NPCs are different. For them, life is really only once. Even if there is a method of resurrection in the game world, it is not something ordinary NPCs can enjoy.
Therefore, this kind of "dark curse" with the theme of "torture" has found a market. It is exactly the secret method used by the magicians in the dungeon to torture their enemies and opponents.
Players can also learn these extremely obscure mid- to low-level skills, but since they are not guild-promoted skills, they have to do separate tasks if they want to learn them. Generally, there are also powerful practical skills in such rare skills, so the postgraduate entrance examination tasks are quite large.
Cumbersome and difficult.
Liu Yifei is able to master this skill, naturally thanks to the "Black Magic Book". In Liu Yifei's opinion, the power of this off-hand weapon is definitely no less than his Black Death Staff, especially for someone who is not a dungeon magician.
It seems even more precious to players!
On one side, Liu Yifei lamented the power of the unconventional skills, while on the other side, the manticore who was severely injured was really going to die.
Originally, Liu Yifei's claws were so injured that it almost wanted to kill itself, but now coupled with the evil dark curse, the manticore couldn't help but roll on the ground in pain!
It's just that its wound is huge, how can it withstand such torture?
The wound is large, the skin and flesh are rolled, and the muscles and bones are injured. This is a standard severe bleeding injury~
And the manticore was still jumping around in the forest with such a wound, and the wound was getting bigger and bigger! In the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, the bleeding did not gradually slow down, but became more and more exaggerated!
Especially the effect of the curse is still continuing. The more severe the bleeding, the more exaggerated the pain!
However, in just a moment, the originally complete Manticore was left with no air intake, and almost all of this was lost by itself...
The above paragraph is a long story, but in fact it is just a sneak attack!
After the sneak attack was successful, Liu Yifei immediately turned to attack the manticore on the other side.
In addition to the two manticores holding down the position, there was also a team of underground city ground patrols.
Originally, the two manticores were "playing", so these low- and middle-level creatures naturally stayed away from each other.
However, seeing that the manticore was severely damaged, the dark monsters in the dungeon roared back again, apparently planning to concentrate their firepower.
"Form up! I will deal with this manticore. You quickly form a formation to deal with the ground troops. The enemy's air force is also coming to kill you!"
While fighting the second manticore, Liu Yifei took the time to yell at the remaining players of the third scout team.
The third scout team is different from the first and second teams.
The first and second teams are relatively capable, so the team size is controlled to the standard ten people, plus a team leader.
The third team gathered the remaining sixteen players suitable to be scouts, including a captain, so it was originally the largest.
It's a pity that in this moment, only seven people can be gathered together. There are two more people lying on the ground, but they are all seriously injured. They are either dying or not far away from death.
It would be unreliable to drag them back to fight again~
Most of them were killed or injured in one fell swoop, and what was even worse was that even the team leader was dead. You can imagine how low the morale of these third team players is~
They all thought they were going to die, but mechanically followed the captain's instructions before he died and retreated back to the original route. But everyone didn't expect that someone would rush out to save them all of a sudden!
In fact, although the Tower Clan does not have large-scale professional scout players, as a group of players with easy communication of information, they also understand the basic information of some scouts.
The most important point is that, unless there are special circumstances, when the team is operating, the first thing the scouts who have been exposed and difficult to save should do is not to move closer to the troops, but to lead the enemy as far away from the group as possible.
In this way, even if you die, you can still save the team to some extent.
If there are 250 scouts who yell and retreat towards the main force after being attacked by the enemy, such a person will be scolded by all the players in the surrounding area!
Because this kind of person is the bane of the team~
When everyone received the order to "retrace the original route", they were already chilled, knowing that they might have been abandoned. However, out of consideration for the completion of the mission, everyone did not say anything on the spot.
Silently fight and retreat in the predetermined direction.
However, God did not fulfill people's wishes.
Originally, one manticore had already beaten everyone to a pulp, but the second manticore suddenly popped out from somewhere, and after directly killing the captain, it finally began to sweep across the entire scout team.
And now, just when everyone is despairing and thinking that they are going to hang back first, a perverted and powerful man who is like a god appears!
In an instant, he destroyed a manticore, and without hesitation, he fought with the second manticore.
And wait for the team players in the emergency formation to take a closer look...
Holy shit!
Isn't this the foreign aid captain from the first scout team?
Why did you come here to save them?
Everyone's surprised eyes were silently communicating with each other, and the next moment, a team application made everyone stunned!
The player "Wizard" requests to form a team, do you agree?
The original vice-captain of the team, now the captain of the "Full Department Master" subconsciously agreed, and with just a slight hesitation, he directly transferred the position of team captain to Liu Yifei, who was still in the battle.
This move was not only unexpected by the team members, but even Liu Yifei couldn't help but be stunned. What a good move. As soon as his hand stopped, the opponent's sweeping steel whip almost missed Liu Yifei's waist!
This is quite conscious...
Liu Yifei, who narrowly dodged the opponent's blow, stretched out his hand to summon a "thunderbolt". The manticore was about to fly off the ground and trembled. Electric sparks jumped back and forth between its fur, and the manticore was instantly killed.
It turned into a slightly gray and black alien-shaped large hedgehog, and the shape was quite unique.
After returning the favor, Liu Yifei had already adjusted his mentality.
Liu Yifei has always been a hypocritical person. When he has no power, he will not go out of his way to make excuses. When he has responsibility, he will not hesitate to make excuses.
Liu Yifei has always been a person who likes to let nature take its course. This has always been Liu Yifei's way of fighting.
It is precisely because of this temperament that Liu Yifei has now become an all-round leader who can withstand, bear, and fight at critical moments.
He can withstand the enemy's fierce offensive, he can withstand the huge pressure of directing his teammates to victory, and he can defeat boss-level opponents who pose a huge threat to the team.
Liu Yifei has always played a similar role in getting along with the little assassin, Xue Lan and others.
Now that the other party has transferred the command to him, Liu Yifei took advantage of the situation and started doing what a commander should do~
"Deputy team, contact the headquarters and report that the situation is under control and everything is fine. Let them continue their mission. We will lurk there later.
Attention everyone, continue to retreat and keep your formation intact. The enemy may have reached behind us, but our headquarters has already evacuated, so our pace does not need to be too fast.
When attacking, first attack the enemy's air troops and target the harpies in their normal form. Don't worry about the rest. Just help me accumulate enough corpses!"
With a claw, he pushed back the manticore, which was jumping around like a big flea. Liu Yifei continued to release a bone spear, and then finished the last sentence in the team channel.
Now in the ghost tribe, players from other professions usually jokingly call the necromancer a "human cannon"!
The reason is that Necromancers at this level should have mastered the two skills of "Poison Explosion" and "Corpse Explosion".
One is to use freshly dead corpses to produce a violent range-killing poisonous gas explosion. In addition to the initial non-attribute explosion damage, there is also a severe poisoning effect within ten meters.
Corpse explosions are more well-known, which are violent explosions caused by ready-made corpses!
The skill only determines the maximum amount of free death energy that can be poured into it, and the range covered by the skill explosion, but what really determines the damage is the maximum HP value of the corpse itself. The higher this value, the more terrifying the damage will be~
The ghost people often say: "Necromancers are a group of perverted guys who can use a corpse to create a victory."
Although this statement is unfair, it also clearly explains the characteristics of the Necromancer at this stage~
As long as there is the first corpse and enough blue medicine, the Necromancer can indeed create a medium-sized miracle. For example, right now...
Boom~
The body of the first harpy exploded, and the damage caused was not outrageous, but as the body fell apart, clouds of dark green gas that was so rich that it made people sick to their stomach began to disperse in all directions.
Within a moment, the dungeon patrol team that had gathered around them had to flee in all directions, because as long as they were exposed to the spreading green gas, their physical strength would decline rapidly!
Not only that, even their own physical attributes will decline!
This is actually an improved version of the ghost clan’s corpse explosion!
For a moment, the mountain forest was filled with green smoke, and while the monsters in the dungeon were struggling to survive, Liu Yifei led his new subordinates to launch the first round of counterattack...
