"Brothers of the Thunderbolt Legion, kill!"
The second wave of the siege BOSS, Angus, was full of killing intent. He held a huge axe as tall as a person and swept it from time to time. His violent attack methods turned the surrounding skeleton soldiers into bones all over the ground. "Retake the City of Sky Light with me!"
"Kill -"
With his charge, the attack of the NPCs became even more fierce. The first wave of skeleton soldiers who went out to fight couldn't resist. The defense line was quickly broken through.
For a moment, a large number of players who were melee classes died in battle, and white lights kept appearing one after another.
This meant that their time as participants was over. Because before the siege battle ended, they couldn't be resurrected and return to the battlefield.
"Go out and fight!"
Daniel gave the order decisively.
Obviously, he wasn't going to give the opponent a chance to reach the city gate after the first wave of defenders was defeated.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Adventurers, please note that the elite skeleton soldiers led by the 25-level silver-level BOSS [Skeleton General] will fight as the second wave of defenders!
When the skeleton soldiers were no longer a threat, the system message rang in the ears of every attacking player.
"Click click click..."
The heavy city gate opened again. Compared to just now, the skeleton soldiers with slightly stronger strength, led by a huge skeleton general holding a big sword, swarmed out and held off the aggressive Thunderbolt Legion.
"Jeer! Jeer!..."
Those skeleton soldiers immediately used the C-level skill Trample that Jack taught, trampling rows of NPCs and players to the ground.
"Again?"
The attacking adventurers were shocked and quickly backed away, afraid of making a fool of themselves and being recorded by others.
While Jack was constantly shooting arrows, he was also keeping an eye on the battlefield. He found that Angus was also pushed to the ground among countless Tramples. It wasn't until more than ten seconds later that he struggled to get up.
"Damn skeleton soldiers, your attack methods are so despicable!" The scarred Angus was furious. Just as he was about to swing the big axe, his vision darkened. The sunlight was blocked by the huge skeleton general.
"Screech..."
The big sword fell, and Angus was split in two. In the cruel and bloody scene, he died completely.
Both at level 20, the silver-level skeleton general was much stronger than Angus. Plus, Angus had lost too much blood from the soldiers and was killed in one sword strike.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Because [Thunderbolt Axe · Angus] was killed by the skeleton general, the points reward is cancelled!
The skeleton general belongs to the NPC and naturally can't get points.
This was something Jack, who couldn't enter the battlefield, was happy to see.
"Sir!"
"It's over. The sir was actually killed!"
...
As soon as the general died, the morale of the Thunderbolt Legion dropped sharply, and the situation reversed. In just over ten minutes, they all became corpses on the battlefield.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Please note that the new elite legion led by the 35-level silver-level BOSS [Angry Soldier · Karo] will start the third wave of the siege battle in two minutes!
"Oh my, it's directly jumped to the 35-level silver BOSS. Shouldn't it be level 30?"
"It seems that the difficulty has skyrocketed since the third wave!"
...
"Angry Soldier · Karo?"
Jack put away his bow and saw the name of the third-wave BOSS shown in the system prompt. He was slightly surprised.
This name, he was all too familiar with!
Is it the same name or the same person?
Before long, a large number of adventurers and NPCs from the distance formed a battle line and pressed forward. The leader held a silver sword and moved like the wind under his feet. The moment he charged into the crowd, the cold light danced wildly, causing many players to die with a black screen.
-6770!
-7423!
-7371!
...
The high damage jumped out, meaning his attack was quite powerful.
"Jeer!"
Seeing the other party killing wantonly, the skeleton general lifted the big sword and went up to fight with him. But as a 35-level silver-level BOSS, Karo's attributes were much higher than the latter. The skeleton general was easily suppressed, and his health points dropped rapidly.
Jack narrowed his eyes slightly. "Is it really him?"
As an NPC in the novice village who gave him the opportunity to be one step ahead of the vast majority of players, how could his impression not be deep.
He put away his bow. Seeing that the skeleton general couldn't hold on for long, he was ready to enter the battlefield.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Because [Skeleton General] was killed by Angry Soldier · Karo, the points reward is cancelled!
The ending wasn't too surprising.
The skeleton general struggled for a few minutes under Karo's fierce attack and was finally chopped into bones.
After that, the situation changed again.
Karo's attributes far exceeded the tolerance range of the current mainstream players. One sword strike killed one player, and the damage values caused by the players were basically a few points, which was of little significance.
The new elite legion led by him also surpassed the elite skeleton soldiers in all aspects.
"Apprentice!"
Daniel, who was keeping an eye on the battlefield, turned his vision and looked at Jack. "Remember, your goal is to protect yourself and don't be carried away by the killing."
"Yeah!"
Jack nodded, feeling warm in his heart.
Honestly, no matter what purpose Daniel was hiding, he had been very good to his apprentice.
"Well... go." Daniel's tone was solemn.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Adventurers, please note that the skeleton knights led by the 28-level silver-level BOSS [Dark Control · YiJack Shui] will fight as the third wave of defenders!
The next second, the system sent a message. All the adventurers on the attacking side were invigorated and had uncontrollable greedy looks in their eyes.
Finally, the main character appeared.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Please note that you need to hold on for at least twenty minutes before you can retreat into the city!
At the same time, a system message that only Jack could hear rang in his ears.
Twenty minutes!
It could be seen that the game rules didn't want him to easily escape this disaster.
"Click click click..."
The city gate opened for the third time. Jack led the skeleton knights and walked out with the Cold Cloud Sword under the convergence of countless lines of sight.
"Screech..."
Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and the dagger drew a shocking arc.
Jack seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. He bent his knees and waist, perfectly avoiding the attack that intended to pass his neck. Then he turned around and thrust the sword, taking the opponent away.
"Damn!"
The thief who attacked sneakily was stunned. He never thought that his sudden attack would be avoided by the other party.
"President, YiJack Shui has come out!"
"Quickly surround him and block the city gate. Don't let him go back easily!"
"The reward for the first place on the attacking side of the Light Faction is less than that of the defending side. It's inevitable because the real reward isn't only for the first place..."
...
When Jack led the skeleton knights riding skeleton horses out and the city gate closed, a large number of players on the defending side completely blocked the city gate.
It could be seen that they came prepared and joined the defending side specifically for Jack's head, planning to cooperate from both inside and outside.
Regarding this, Jack wasn't too concerned.
When the time was up and he really wanted to return to the city, these players couldn't stop him.
-1!
MISS!
-1!
...
A bunch of damage that didn't break the defense or was directly exempted popped up.
The next second, countless adventurers surrounded Jack tightly.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Because the number of adventurers gathered around you exceeds 3000, your tenacity is enhanced, and your health points increase by an additional 50%!
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Because the number of adventurers gathered around you exceeds 5000, your tenacity is greatly enhanced, and your final health points increase by an additional 100%!
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Because the number of adventurers gathered around you exceeds 8000, your tenacity is extremely enhanced, and your final health points increase by an additional 200%!
...
The system bells rang one after another, eventually making Jack's health points exceed 140,000.
140,000!
This was already the health points that a real BOSS should have.
There was no doubt that the game had its hidden rules. When the number of players increased, the health and tenacity of the BOSS would increase. The super thick health would increase the difficulty of killing the BOSS, and the tenacity would reduce the hit effect of control skills.
This rule reasonably limited players from using the human sea tactic to hard brush the BOSS that couldn't be dealt with at the current stage, thereby breaking the game balance.
"Screech..."
Jack swept his sharp sword. The moment the two people in front touched the blade, they turned into white lights and were killed instantly without any doubt.
-11475!
-22584!
The two damage values over 10,000 stunned a large number of players. Especially the second one, because of the critical hit, the damage doubled.
"This damage... Damn, has YiJack Shui really become a BOSS?!"
"The players in the top ten of the level ranking posted his attribute panel. Over 1,300 attack. Is this what a level 28 player should have?"
"Brothers, for the only hidden profession, kill!"
...
Where Jack's vision reached, the adventurers came like a tide!
...
