Chapter 1414: Battle Strategy
w.a.n.g Yu’s senses were very sharp so once the monsters in the courtyard turned to them, he instantly felt an overwhelming murderous intent.
“!!!”
w.a.n.g Yu quickly reacted in that moment and took out his long pole to block everyone horizontally.
“Oh no! We pulled their aggro!”
The rest did not feel the murderous intent like w.a.n.g Yu but it was human nature to sense danger. Even non-martial arts pract.i.tioners could feel a cold chill run down their spine.
Before Fearless ordered, everyone was in formation.
Just then, in a flash of red light, the monsters in the courtyard grew two times bigger and their eyes also turned red.
Berserk Inferno Fairy (LV65) (Elite)
HP: 150000
MP: 300000
Skills: [Berserk Inferno], [Inferno Explosion]
Seeing this, everyone was shocked, “d.a.m.n it! They are indeed berserk!”
Seeing this, the gemstones on the gate really could be taken down but the price they had to pay was that the monsters before them turned into berserk mode.
After berserk, the Inferno Fairies’ HP obviously dropped more than half but the damage they could cause increased. Based on the proportions, their strength would triple or more.
Hence, no matter how shameless players were, they could not beat the game designers.
“Gah!!”
Following a weird shriek, the entire courtyard’s two hundred Berserk Inferno Fairy gathered from all directions.
Everyone was panicking.
PVE and PVP were different.
Although at the moment, most players could take on a monster higher level than they are, players were inferior in terms of HP and attributes, and relied on their maneuvering.
If one hundred players charged towards them, based on Quan Zhen Sect and Kingdom of h.e.l.l’s abilities, one round of attacks by just their Archers and Magicians could wipe out their players at the back while their frontline players would be barely alive. The close-combat players will then take over to destroy their formation.
However, when it came to dealing with monsters, it was not so easy. After all, monsters had hundreds of thousands of HP so no one could take them out instantly. Furthermore, monsters did not have any maneuvering skills. They only had a fearless heart who sought to attack. If they were not killed in one round, they would be willing to die together with their opponent.
The Inferno Fairies were level 65 elite monsters and everyone had witnessed their attack strength just now. Once they exploded, even a Guardian like Blood Termination died. Furthermore, these Inferno Fairies were in berserk state already so their damage would only be higher than just now. If they attacked everyone, everyone would be wiped out in just one round.
Well, there is always a taller mountain so no one knew what to do when dealing with such a shameless setting.
However, then again, the Inferno Fairies which excelled based on their lack of tactics was just like the Kingdom of h.e.l.l. Seeing the monsters encircle them, Kingdom of h.e.l.l seemed to be dealing with themselves. Instantly, their blood gushed and G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand excitedly waved his hand and yelled, “Go all out with them. Asura and Hades, hang in there! Raksha, control them!!”
As he spoke, Kingdom of h.e.l.l’s players were ready to charge forward.
“F*ck!!!”
Quan Zhen Sect broke out in a sweat at this sight. Why was this Archer going all out? Was there a reason for this?
“All of you, stand still!”
Fearless was speechless and yelled at them to stop them, “Do you know who is the commander here?”
“F*ck…”
Hearing what Fearless said, Kingdom of h.e.l.l’s players were shocked and quickly stopped.
G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand anxiously said, “If we don’t charge in now, are we waiting to die?”
“What do you know!” Fearless pointed at the Berserk Inferno Fairies and said, “You have lost your Guardian, can you withstand those self-exploding fellas?”
“This…”
G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand kept quiet.
As everyone knew, self-exploding damage was real damage which ignored all defence and Guardian’s s.h.i.+elds were equipment. So only a Guardian could withstand it. To charge without a s.h.i.+eld was no different from seeking death. Even the Warriors with a lot of HP would only be able to withstand no more than two blows.
“Then what should we do?”
Seeing how the Inferno Fairies were less than twenty metres away, G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand asked.
“Easy!” Fearless calmly waved his hand then ordered G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand and the rest, “With Left Hand in the middle, everyone, form a circular formation!”
A circular formation was a basic formation for players. It was under the situation that the front line jobs exceeded the number of long-range jobs, then short distance jobs in the frontline formed a circular formation to protect the attackers. It was also known as an all for one battle tactic.
Based on how Kingdom of h.e.l.l had more Warriors than attackers, all for one battle tactic was their forte so they used the circular formation to its best. Upon receiving Fearless’ order, everyone quickly stood into the formation.
“Is… Is this any different? Won’t we be unable to withstand self-explosions?”
However, G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand questioned Fearless’ instructions.
Even in this all for one tactic, Warriors were still in front while the attackers were at the back. The Inferno Fairies’ self-explosion disregarded any defence so how was this formation different from charging forward?
“Yes!”
Fearless snapped his fingers and said, “Self-explosion has a range. So long as they can’t come near our Warriors, we will be fine.”
“Not come near?” G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand was puzzled.
However, by then, the Inferno Fairies were already within five metres of them.
“Yes!” Fearless snapped his fingers again and said, “Brother Spring! It’s all on you!”
“Got it!”
Spring Halo received Fearless’ order then nodded as he smashed his staff on the ground. A black circle appeared below everyone’s feed and the [Dark Barrier] rose from the ground, encircling everyone in it.
“Boom!”
At the same time, the Inferno Fairies who were in front b.u.mped their heads into Spring Halo’s [Dark Barrier] and were rooted to the spot.
“Eh?”
G.o.d of Death’s Left hand and the rest were stunned at this scene, looking extremely shocked.
“So I see!” G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand was enlightened.
They were indeed experts who could use the same skill for different purposes.
G.o.d of Death’s Left Hand and his players were professional experts and thus, knew that one could use [Dark Barrier] to protect themselves. However, as Kingdom of h.e.l.l did not have a Shaman, they did not have the realisation that it could be used this way too.
Of course, everyone was not just surprised about how [Dark Barrier] could be used.
After all, in such a situation, not just any ordinary player, even professional ones would panic.
However, Fearless kept as calm as usual and could use such a short amount of time to a.n.a.lyse the strengths and weaknesses of both sides then instantly craft the most appropriate battle tactic. His state of mind and ability to react was indeed impeccable.
Since the start, Quan Zhen Sect’s players did not panic at all which made it clear that all of them had their utmost faith in Fearless.
