Chapter 120 Confrontation
It took me so long to complete the task. If an ordinary player came, there might be only a few soldiers left.
Xu Youming only thought about output but forgot about treatment.
The others who come will most likely be a team, and they will not only kill the bandits, but also treat the dying soldiers.
"Warrior, thank you for your support! All the supplies at our base have been stolen by the bandits from Jianming Mountain. I wonder if you can help get them back!"
At this time, a soldier squad leader came to Xu Youming and gave him the next task.
[Ding, do you accept the mission: Intercept the returning bandits and hold out until the reinforcements from Lanling City arrive to win]
It turned out that there were more than just these bandits, and some had already escorted the supplies back to the mountains.
"accept."
A red exclamation mark appears after this task, which means that the difficulty exceeds Xu Youming's current level. However, since he has come this far, there is no reason to give up.
After accepting the mission, a red route appeared on Xu Youming's small map, marking the location of the bandits.
The red route has been walked 50%. When you reach the end, you should return to the village.
With Xu Youming's current strength, it is impossible for him to break into the mountain stronghold, so they must be intercepted before they enter.
According to the task instructions, he didn't have to kill all the bandits. He just needed to stop them and wait for the support from Lanling City to arrive.
On the surface, it seems that the difficulty of the task has been reduced, but based on Xu Youming 's understanding of the system, the difficulty must have reached a level that the player cannot bear, so the system will give such a seemingly simple task.
Without stopping for long, Xu Youming set off along the red route.
After coming out, he discovered that the red route was a path into the mountains, and the monsters around it were all above level 25.
boom!
A huge rock fell, and a stone monster blocked Xu Youming's way.
If you bypass this monster and don't take the small path, there will be more wild monsters around.
Helplessly, I can only move forward after dealing with the stone monster in front of me.
Rock Giant Elite
Level: 26
HP: 38000
Attack: 528
Physical defense: 385
Magic Defense: 365
Skill
Boulder Blast: Deals 120% physical attack to the target, with a chance to stun.
Although the damage of this rock giant is not as high as those of the bandits, his health and defense are ridiculously high.
sieve!
-1258
The armor-piercing arrow only caused a little over 1,000 HP. It was really a tough guy.
After being attacked, the rock giant's fist was already falling towards Xu Youming, but because the distance was too close, he had no way to dodge.
boom!
-125
The damage was very general, but it made Xu Youming feel a tightness in his chest.
It really hurts to be hit by this iron-like fist.
After three consecutive arrows flew out, the rock giant's already clumsy speed was reduced even further, and it was difficult for him to catch up with Xu Youming's pace.
However, what Xu Youming did not expect was that the rock giant casually swung a stone and hit him on the chest again.
Bang!
-126
In addition to melee combat, this guy also has long-range attack capabilities.
Feeling depressed, Xu Youming could only keep launching attacks, hoping to get rid of the rock giant quickly.
After all, the red dots representing the bandits were constantly moving forward. If I went too late, the mission would fail.
After continuing to attack for half a minute, the annoying guy was finally dealt with. Stepping on the gravel on the ground, Xu Youming continued to chase the bandit.
After killing more than a dozen rock giants in succession, Xu Youming finally caught up with the bandits who were escorting supplies.
A group of nearly 20 people surrounded several carriages and moved forward slowly. The leader was riding a tall horse and was obviously a bandit leader.
whoosh!
40 meters away, Xu Youming shot an arrow at a bandit.
-1358
"Who is it?"
After being attacked, the bandits became alert and soon discovered Xu Youming behind them.
"Guys, kill that ungrateful guy!"
The bandit leader on horseback did not take any action, but instead gave an order, asking his subordinates around him to deal with Xu Youming.
Twenty bandits of various professions were dispatched at the same time, and the momentum was quite intimidating.
However, just as they took a step forward, they were covered by the overwhelming ghost purgatory.
-1358
-1582
-1426
…
As damage was caused to the body, the speed was also affected.
Then, a green light came, and the bandits in a line suffered great damage.
Originally Xu Youming was quite pleased with himself, but when he saw the next scene, he realized that he was too happy too early.
Swish!
A milky white light enveloped the heads of these bandits, and their lost blood was slowly recovering.
+300
+300
…
Although the healing amount is not as high as the damage done, it is still recovering continuously.
Sure enough, after the priest's professional level was upgraded, the healing effect became more and more obvious.
In order to maximize his damage and keep a distance from the opponent, Xu Youming kept fighting and retreating.
However, the speed of these bandits was not slower than his own. Even though they were slowed down, they were still slowly approaching him.
Chi!
-425!
dizziness!
A stab came from behind, and without knowing when, an assassin actually found his side.
When the bandits saw Xu Youming being hit, they rushed forward excitedly. In their opinion, as long as they could get close to this guy, they could kill him with their swords.
Wandering souls from the underworld!
A black light appeared on his body, and Xu Youming's body turned translucent.
The assassin's subsequent damage was reduced to the extreme, and Xu Youming also resumed his actions.
This was his first time using this skill and the effect was quite good, as if he was floating in water.
Armor-piercing arrow!
Falling sun!
Chasing souls!
The three consecutive attacks were all aimed at the assassin's forehead, directly taking away tens of thousands of his health points. At the same time, Xu Youming also got rid of the assassin's entanglement.
However, this assassin bandit was not without effect. At least when Xu Youming was dealing with him, the bandits behind him had already rushed within 30 meters.
boom!
whoosh!
The magic and arrows flew first and landed on Xu Youming.
Although the damage was not very high, Xu Youming was surprised to find that the opponent also had a skill to slow down.
Soon, the slowing effects of both sides were offset, and the bandits were getting closer and closer.
The Dark Dragon is coming!
The moment an arrow flew out, it finally triggered the descent of the Nether Dragon, and then the Ghost Purgatory also cooled down.
Xu Youming focused his attack on the assassin in front of him and the water mage in the distance. With the continuous output, the blood volume of the bandit priest could not keep up.
Soon, the water magic in the distance was solved first, and Xu Youming once again gained the advantage in speed.
After resuming the pulling, the bandits' approach slowed down again.
The damage that kept floating above their heads meant that they were destined to be unable to get close to Xu Youming.
