Chapter 436: The Dragon and Phoenix of the Fishing World
Although he had gained extraordinary powers thanks to the "divine favor", the priest who rolled down the hillside was still in a very miserable state at the moment... There were grass leaves in his hair, his face and hands were covered with dust and minor scratches, and even one of his shoes was missing.
Only the robe woven from a special material remained intact.
The priest, who usually paid great attention to his appearance and manners, naturally didn't care about his manners at this time. He ran wildly with his head down, stepping one foot deep and one foot shallow on the river bank full of mud, water plants and shrubs taller than people. He just regretted that his parents had not given him two more legs.
"Damn it! Damn it! These damn undead bastards!"
"How hateful - I should have left this troublesome place immediately on the day when 'God's Blessing' became unstable! It's all because of those two hateful idiots. If it weren't for those two idiots getting in the way, I wouldn't have wasted so many days !"
The priest was so angry and humiliated for delaying his chance to escape that he took his anger out on the two low-level believers who had been bewitched by him and turned into fanatics. The priest's face, which had turned pale due to being frightened by the Tarantan undead, finally showed some color.
“I didn’t catch up!”
He hastily looked back and saw no pursuers in the empty forest or on the hillside covered with dense vegetation. The priest became even more excited.
“There’s a chance!”
“There’s still a chance!”
"Get out of this damn place!"
As the river turned a corner, the priest, who had just gathered his spirits, suddenly saw two skeletons appear not far ahead.
The two undead were lurking on the path he had to take to escape, holding long pole-shaped weapons in their hands.
"——You undead bastards, do you really want to kill me?!"
The priest who thought he could escape was filled with shock and anger. His tense nerves broke in an instant and he pounced fiercely at the two undead who had cut off his way to life.
The two lazy players who just cast their fishing rods said: "?!"
"What the hell?" Salted Fish Party A jumped more than three feet high on the spot.
“What the hell is that?” Salted Fish Party B screamed.
In the eyes of these two salty fish parties, the situation is like this:
They were just squatting on a secluded river bank fishing without provoking anyone, when a big humanoid boss with a red name suddenly jumped out of the bushes and attacked them.
What's even more outrageous is that, clearly the two of them didn't try to attract the BOSS's hatred at all, but the BOSS actually transformed while rushing towards them. When it just came out of the bushes, it was still a humanoid monster, but after it came out of the bushes, it grew as the wind blew, and in the blink of an eye, it changed from a humanoid monster into a small monster with the tonnage that could fight against a heavy truck... No, an alien.
It was the kind of alien that was covered with a thick rocky shell, extremely ugly, and looked very difficult to deal with.
It was extremely ugly, ferocious and brutal, as if the artist and modeler had been heartbroken 180 times, and the one who dumped them was a big player pretending to be a cute girl who cheated them of their entire server's fortune. It was a product of their fury and revenge, and it knocked down trees, blew up the ground, and pounced ferociously on the two innocent, weak and trembling fishermen with the power to destroy the world.
“Oh my god!”
The lazy fisherman A, who once caught a monster but did not let go of the fishing rod, abandoned the fishing rod with no fish on it without hesitation and ran away.
Salted Fish Party B was not far behind and ran faster than Salted Fish Party A.
A humanoid creature running at the foot of a mountain hundreds of meters away would be hard to see from the mountain; but if it was a giant monster the size of a heavy truck rushing around, it would be spotted by people on the mountain even if it was one or two kilometers away.
Yang Ying, who was searching for the fleeing BOSS, heard a strange noise. He stretched his neck and saw the monster wantonly destroying the forest at the foot of the mountain. He quickly opened the chat channel and swiped the screen in the team:
"Found it! Found it! At the two o'clock direction where we just spotted the wild monster! Come over here quickly!"
"Hurry, hurry! The boss seems to have been attacked and has already transformed into the next stage!"
I had just led a group of people to capture all the bandits who tried to escape and brought them back to me to give me medicine. Upon hearing this, I flew into a rage: "Damn, someone is actually stealing monsters?!"
"Everyone, go over there! Everyone, go over there! Hurry up and gather together and prepare for the fight!" Qin Guan, the leader of the team, was also cursing in the team, "Fuck, we have come to such a remote place to kill monsters, and someone comes to rob us!"
It’s not that these old players are bullying the weak, but for the players... the lazy and individual players will only do some errands around the new main city map (Lars City). Even if they form a group to kill monsters, they will not go deep into the wild area.
The only ones who would run to the wild area to snatch monsters and bosses can only be player blood alliances of similar size to Qin Guan's blood alliance, or those that are not much different. The number of people will not be much less than theirs, and may even be more than theirs. Any conflict between the two sides can only be regarded as normal PVP activities, and can never be called bullying the few with the majority or the weak with the strong.
The two lazy guys came online after having supper the night before. After completing their errands, they stayed in Baboba Town to fish. They went offline several times to go to the toilet, drink water, etc. According to their gaming habits, they would play until 7:30 in the morning on Earth, or 2:00 in the afternoon in the other world, then go offline to wash up, have breakfast, and go out to work.
The “gaming” time is twice as long as the Earth time. The sleeping time is used to play games and experience double the leisure time. For those who are lazy, it would be a waste if they don’t waste such ample time (…) - anyway, they have to work all day, and after get off work they have to socialize, spend time with their family, go out for a drink or a midnight snack, etc., so the 12 hours (Earth time) of online time per day are usually not used up.
But for heavy gamers, the 12 hours of online time wasted by casual players often needs to be calculated carefully... otherwise they will face the embarrassing situation of not being able to go online during the evening rush hour, and can only wait bitterly for the online time to be refreshed after midnight.
The players in the Qin Guan Blood Alliance are undoubtedly heavy players. In order to ensure that there are people online to organize large groups around the clock and hunt the "new map wild monsters" that are becoming less and less and more rare, these players have cleverly adopted a "shift system" - now at 5 a.m. Earth time, the online low-peak period, there are more than 400 players online in the Blood Alliance.
More than 400 players urged each other to gather, waiting for people while following the monsters down the mountain in a large group to avoid losing the target; finally everyone was almost there, and they rushed down the mountain impatiently...
Then, these more than 400 heavy players were stunned to see the two lazy players being chased by the BOSS.
If other players were being chased, hardcore players would think that these two guys were stalling for time by kiting the BOSS and waiting for their big group to come, but the casual players would never let the hardcore players have this misunderstanding.
These two guys have passed level three but haven't even done the second job. Under the appraisal technique, they are shown as first-job professionals. They are also wearing fish scale armor and steel knives, which are blank equipment that players will eliminate as soon as possible after leaving the novice village!
Of course, the most important thing is... when these two guys saw a large group of players, they actually ran towards them quickly, pulling the BOSS as if they saw a savior.
He was running and screaming for help.
Qin Guan confirmed the first-level career information of the two players three times, and shouted in confusion: "What are you two doing? Why are you provoking the BOSS for no reason?"
"No, boss! The BOSS ran out by himself!" The salted fish party A, who was running towards the large group of players, shouted in despair.
"We really didn't do anything, big brother! This stupid boss suddenly rushed out!" Salted Fish Party B ran nervously and looked back, "Help, help, I'm going to die!"
The one who was originally preparing for PK gave me medicine, and in a helpless manner he called on the players in the big group to go up and take on the monster.
Heavy players who have been exploring the depths of the Tarantan Wasteland for a long time and actively provoking various high-level monsters and demons have rich experience in dealing with monsters of such large sizes... The knight's provocation is useless and the monster will be immune to it (the player's mental power cannot use rune skills to confuse and interfere with monsters and creatures whose mental power is stronger than the player's). To quickly restrict the monster's actions, the only way is to rely on the wizard player to corrupt the ground.
Several wizard players stood out from the crowd, skillfully raised their staffs and cast corrosion spells on the ground in front of the BOSS at the same time. The BOSS, which was already overweight, immediately sank half of its body into the quagmire-like ground.
When the BOSS's movements are restricted and it can't continue to rush around, it's time for the knight players to come into play: more than 30 knight players are divided into two teams to encircle the BOSS, releasing shield strikes on the BOSS one by one - this skill also has a high probability of being immune, but as long as one person's skill takes effect, the BOSS will enter a short state of dizziness.
Anyway, there are many knight players in the group, so just try one by one... Before the effect of the wizard's corruption skill ends, with so many knight players with skill CDs, there will always be one who can succeed.
A knight player who was extremely well-equipped successfully used a skill and used a small shield to stun the huge BOSS, then quickly retreated and distanced himself from the BOSS.
While the boss was stunned, several wizard players came out to cast skills, corrupting the ground under the boss's feet...
The knight and the wizard used their skills alternately to pin down the BOSS for about half a minute. The hatred value of the terrifying monster transformed by the priest was transferred from the two casual players to the large group players...
"Hate is coming over here, DPS output!" He shouted while giving me medicine and rushed forward with a dagger in hand.
The walkers and warrior players who were quietly waiting for the knights and mages to draw aggro all stepped forward...
"Don't use your skills randomly, attack the gaps between the rock shells!"
"Mage, don't use your skills randomly, save your mana bar for control!"
"Hit the abdomen! The abdomen does the most damage!"
"The knight whose shield attack CD is ready is ready!"
In the busy but not chaotic, tense and orderly siege, the long health bar (damage level) on the giant BOSS's head that the player can see in his field of vision begins to slowly drop...
The two inexperienced players who luckily managed to escape with their lives and not have to be logged off watched in shock as these masters defeated the BOSS as smoothly as silk.
"Awesome, big guys!" Incompetent Party B couldn't help but give a thumbs up. "The last time my Blood Alliance's group of noobs pushed the BOSS in Dutata City, it was so chaotic that many people died before they could find the rhythm!"
"An expert is an expert." Member A nodded repeatedly.
"Huh?!" Miaobishenghua, who was in charge of arranging the mage to control monsters, turned around in shock, "Last time? Dutata City? Did you two encounter the boss that ran out of Dutata City last time?"
The two salty fish party members nodded in unison: "Yes, Mr. Huahua, we were fishing outside without provoking anyone at that time. Not to mention that we caught a monster, but just like this time, a boss suddenly appeared and wanted to kill us."
Not to mention the amazing writing, even Qin Guan was shocked.
The lazy party A was still indignant and cursed: "That time, the teleportation point was close, and we shouted for a while and the people from the blood alliance came. This time the teleportation point is far away, and when those ungrateful people heard that it would take more than half an hour to teleport here, they directly told us to die. Anyway, we only need to log off and wait for half an hour. Is this what human beings say?"
Salted Fish Party B was also cursing: "My stupid blood alliance was disbanded once because of the uneven distribution of the boss's treasures. A lot of people ran away. I really have nothing to say to those idiots."
Qin Guan twitched his lips and said, "...You can stop the BOSS just by fishing. If you do it once, you will do it again. You two are really the dragon and phoenix of the fishing world. The ID is correct."
Player A, ID Beibu Gulf Wolong: "Ah, this..."
Salted Fish Party B, the player with the ID Wanfenghu Fengchu, hesitated for a while and said, "Boss Vanilla, are you praising us or insulting us?"
Qin Guan said seriously: "Of course it's a compliment. Luck is also a part of strength. There are still pits in my blood alliance. Do you two want to switch jobs? We also accept living players."
The guy who had just finished using a skill and was waiting for the CD to give me medicine came to help me and said, "You are our blood alliance. When we go fishing in the wild, we will call you two. If you encounter any problems, just give us a call and there will definitely be brothers to help you."
"Uh... that's right." Miaobishenghua also followed suit, "Our Blood Alliance has many experiences in organizing large-scale events, and there has never been any such nonsense as uneven distribution, quarrels, and divisions."
The three veterans of the closed beta were actively recruiting, and the two casual players had never enjoyed such treatment before, so they happily jumped ship on the spot...
The place where these players were busily pushing the "wild BOSS" was less than one thousand meters away from Baboba Town.
When the huge monster was rampaging down the river chasing the two salted fish gangs, people living in the southeast of the town heard the noise.
Because there were farmers in the town and the slightly flatter ground around the town had been reclaimed by the locals for planting, although they were terrified, a group of young and strong people in the town bravely came out to see the situation, carrying "weapons" such as hoes, shovels, and flails.
From a distance of several hundred meters, the townspeople who mustered up the courage to check if there were any wild animals destroying the fields witnessed the shocking scene of the undead besieging the terrifying monster...
