Chapter 287: Ancient Demon Blade
I looked behind me; after the continual battles, [Zhan Long] only had about 900 main members and substitute members combined. Yet, we had to rely on such few people to defend the final three waves of monster attacks. We also had to depend on such few people to slay the last BOSS and seize the God of Commerce Badge. Well, everyone was going after this God of Commerce Badge. To whom the first player shop in Ba Huang City would belong to, was extremely important to the the large guilds, since the second God of Commerce Badge would only appear a whole month after that. A month was enough time to build up the popularity of the first shop. Once the reputation spread, profits would naturally pour in from all sides.
……
“Creak….”
The heavy metal gates slowly opened. The eighth wave was coming. However, it was not the scene of millions of monsters dashing out in unison like we had imagined, but huge figures that were least 10 metres tall. The Lv. 73 mini BOSS level monsters ——Mountain Giants!
These monsters were the definition of hideousness. Their faces seemed to have been soaked in a soy sauce jar for few hundred years, as they were covered in mucus. Their hands held stone cones full of thorns, and they roared angrily as they stomped the ground, making it seem like an earthquake had occurred. “PengPengPeng”, they bolted toward the multitude of players, waving the stone cones at the same time, and thundered, “Foolish humans, how dare you all challenge the servants of God. Come! Accept the verdict of the Gods!”
“Watch out!”
Li Mu gripped his sword tightly and murmured, “These are the Purple Tier mini BOSSes; their stats are weaker than the actual BOSS’s, but their attack power is still very strong, so be careful!”
The Mountain Giants dispersed, and headed toward the horde of players located north of the City of the Ancients. Probably about 12-15 monsters appeared before [Zhan Long].
Raising the Emperor Qin’s Sword, I shouted, “Tanks, go up to the front and draw their aggro. Long ranged players, attack!”
I rushed out as the Emperor Qin’s Sword struck above the ankle of the Mountain Giants with a [Combo], causing numerous damage numbers. My attack power was now practically able to ignore any defense——
2128!
2343!
2211!
2108!
……
The Mountain Giants swung its stone cone, and with a “PengPeng” sound, continually hammered it twice on my shoulder armor, causing an intense pain. Each attack took away 1200+ health points, but it was still bearable. Before the Healers behind me began healing, the Emperor Qin’s Sword moved, and instantly used a [Wind Blade] + [Combo] on the mini BOSS. As the fierce attacks were being made, large amounts of health were being absorbed. The effect of Bloody Spirit Ring was too OP——
4431!
+443!
3679!
+368!
……
I cast a glance at the Emperor Qin’s Sword; the weapon attack for [Kill For Blood] had raised to 227%. Motherf*cker, no wonder it was so powerful. If I attacked continuously, I could kill these Purple Tier mini BOSSes alone without the need of healing. In fact, Lv. 73 wasn’t a level that was a lot higher than mine, so I could endure.
With around 150,000 health, the first Mountain Giants crashed to the ground after being mauled by me, Dancing Forest, Thousand Suns Over Snowy Lands, and the others took about two minutes to fell one. I lifted my sword and darted toward the opposite side to give way for Yue Qing Qian as she cleared the battlefield. The little girl found a pile of equipment under the feet of the giant. She chuckled excitedly and exclaimed, “Brother Xiao Yao, there are two Gold Tier and one Purple Tier equipment! The mini BOSS actually gives Purple Tier equipment!”
I burst out in laughter, “Well, the mini BOSS is also Purple Tier. However, the percentage of the Purple Tier equipment appearing is just smaller. I don’t want it. You decide the distribution of these equipments!”
“Okay…… ” Yue Qing Qian obediently nodded and quickly distributed the drops.
Within the city, more and more Mountain Giants started flowing in and surprising us. It turned out that the eighth wave was not as easy to defeat as we had imagined. The pressure on [Zhan Long]’s front-line was increasing, and people were continually dying from the mini BOSSes’ stone cones, especially the two classes, Knights and Berserkers. Because they had extremely high attack power, they attracted the monsters’ aggro, but their defense stats weren’t necessarily able to withstand the strikes of the Mountain Giants. This resulted in a river of blood flowing below the city.
However, the Mountain Giants in [Zhan Long]’s camp still fell, one by one. In comparison to us, [Flying Dragons]’s camp was pathetic. The 7 Mountain Giants stood for ten minutes, slaughtering numerous players, before dying. Further away, the team combined by the idle players were even more miserable. Thousands of people surrounded one of the giants, but a single strike from the giant still took the lives of many. The average levels of those players was only around Lv 56, 18 levels lower than the Mountain Giants’s. Considering the difference in stats, they couldn’t possibly defend against the BOSS’s attack, even if they had awesome equipment.
