Chapter 202 - 190 Conquer the BOSS, Vampires and... (5K)_2
Mu Yuan looked to his side at a tiny Slime, currently shedding tears in an "QAQ" shape, presenting a scene of utter misery. Indeed, it was quite a miserable sight—General Duo Lai hadn't managed to wield any of his abilities before being eradicated by the Blood Crow.
At this moment, he was subject to great doubt.
How could this be?
Despite being an Epic Life, despite it having set one foot into the Domain Realm, why couldn't it even defeat a single monster?
"It's not that you're weak, but rather, she is too strong."
Mu Yuan temporarily withdrew, directing Sophia to gather more intelligence about the large recruitment points.
Soon enough, up-to-date information on Xiji City's situation was laid before him.
"The most formidable guardian monster at the recruitment area is a War Golem of Warlord Level?"
A third-order Warlord level, powerful enough to run freely in a battlefield inflicting carnage everywhere.
Against ordinary soldiers, they are foes of hundreds, foes of a thousand.
In the Ancient Eagle Kingdom, third-order experts could rule over cities or become top-ranking officials, always the ones in honored seats, no matter where they go.
In the Tai Xuan Alliance, the third-order Warlords aren't as rare, but such powerhouses gather predominantly in the vast territories, rarely seen outside.
Among the player community, the first-order professional level is the most common, and elite levels are not uncommon, but upon advancing to the third level...
The numbers abruptly dwindle.
Ranger Players would exhaust everything they've got; without any special opportunities, it could take them ten, twenty, or thirty years without ever reaching the third order.
Lord Players aiming to step into the realm of the third order, without peculiar opportunities or backgrounds, would also require extensive time for accumulation. Before they even had a chance to accumulate enough, their promising third-order generals might fall in some calamity.
This happens quite often.
Players who possess the power of third order, are already qualified to earn prestigious titles. With some support, they could even become vice-chairs of the small city Players Associations.
In the recent scramble for the recruitment grounds of Xiji City, there were numerous veteran lords who sent out their third-order Chief Generals.
Even such measures weren't enough, and they were highly disadvantaged in a one-on-one fight against the 'War Golem'. They relied on mobbing the boss with their powerhouses to bring it down.
"There's only this one BOSS in the Land of Bones. Clearly, it's stronger than the War Golem."
Just like the gap between one-star Excellence and three-star Excellence.
This BOSS has put all its points into offense, which makes it extremely ferocious.
Perhaps its defense and vitality are somewhat weaker, but challenging it head-on with its super destructive blood arrow would pose substantial risks.
His leisurely retreat earlier was due to two factors: firstly, the Wraith Sacred Mountain had held out well, albeit in danger and requiring significant time to repair; secondly, they were quite far from the Blood Crow, and once they started a all-out fight without success, it wouldn't be so easy to escape then.
To leisurely plan an attack, the prerequisite is to be able to withstand the BOSS's attacks.
"The Blood Crow's attack has high range and destructive power, but it's not without shortcomings. It seems to only possess single-target attacks.
This kind of attack is fatal for mid-rank commanders and elite soldiers.
Even a third-order War General level expert, if their defensive or survival abilities are somewhat weaker, would be seriously wounded by a single arrow.
Ordinary elites would be harvested one by one by a single arrow.
However,
If a lord were to summon a considerable number of Cannon Fodder Soldier Type, could BOSS Blood Crow deal with it easily?
Mu Yuan pondered. Under normal circumstances, a lord would adopt this kind of strategy. He doesn't have a Cannon Fodder Legion, but he has the strategic skill 'Death Legion'.
Yet in the end, he shakes his head. Even if Blood Crow could only attack a single target, she still harbors a certain level of intelligence. If she couldn't clear all the enemies, wouldn't she just focus on killing the elite soldiers and powerhouses within the legion?
Besides, Duo Lai was defeated too quickly just now, possibly failing to completely probe the entirety of Blood Crow's abilities.
This strategy was far from being reliable.
A day later, General Dead Bone returned. He and Duo Lai each took to the battlefield, embroiling themselves in a fierce fight with BOSS Blood Crow that shocked the universe for... 30 seconds, before Dead Bone retreated cautiously.
It's a bit tricky."
He said as such.
With this fight, a great deal more of BOSS Blood Crow's abilities were revealed: aside from the Blood Arrow, it also had the Blood Bird Summon, Blood Flee two skills.
And a Domain covered in blood!
General Dead Bone had tried to confront it with his Domain.
His eyes couldn't keep up with the speed of Blood Crow's arrows, but as long as he activated his Domain, everything under the Domain's coverage would be perfectly controlled. Dead Bone easily avoided the Blood Arrow's attacks until the BOSS Blood Crow also unleashed her Domain.
Only a Domain can counter a Domain.
When the two Domains cancelled each other out, General Dead Bone was no longer able to dodge.
Mu Yuan pondered, "If Dead Bone were to go all out and have all the undead creatures of the Wraith Sacred Mountain join the battle, there's a chance to conquer the BOSS. But..."
With this fight, the Wraith Sacred Mountain that Bone Man had operated for a long time would probably be depleted by over half.
This wasn't like the Land of Challenge where you could reset at will.
It wasn't reliable enough either.
Dead Bone must not have liked this unreliable method of combat. Mu Yuan didn't like it either. He had a more reliable strategy.
Half a day later, the Tianyuan Strategy Group once again set foot in the Land of Bones. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
This time, Miss Duo was simply an observer. The main fighting force consisted of General Dead Bone, General Rakshasa, General Hong Yi, Bone Two Bone Three Bone Four, along with countless elite troops.
133 troops of the Undead Legion.
This is the current maximum troop addition that would not affect the stability of the soul of the legion, as Mu Yuan gradually added more 'new soldiers' to the army.
The Undead Legion slowly advanced, their footfalls more synchronized than a ceremonial military brigade.
Sue enough, the BOSS Blood Crow appeared at the edge of their line of sight, and in the blink of an eye, a red arrow light flashed.
Boom~!
The blood arrow tore through the air, landing on a Skeleton Mortician. This arrow, which would have pierced through Lu Liu's defenses, only caused the Skeleton Mortician's body to shake. Cracks appeared on his armor, and then... there was no follow-up to that.
