Chapter 427 - Devils Rain of Spears and Combo Attack Technique (1/2)
Clang—
The Devil’s Scaly Armor broke along the sound and turned into ash. The removal of the first scale was very smooth, the Devil’s Sprint effect was not triggered as the Scaly Armor was destroyed in an instant. In addition, the three Shield Specialists were attracting aggro, so the Boss did not deal damage to the others.
-3,849!
-4,028!
…
The damage dealt by the Boss was astonishing. If the Health Points and Defense of the three Shield Specialists weren’t top-tier, and that Bu Yi, being an Ascetic Priest, hadn’t enhanced them with Power Word Shield, which increased the upper limit of their Health bar, then three normal Shield Specialists would need at least 10 Healers to be able to take the Boss’ powerful damage!
However, if it were really so, then the damage output would definitely be lacking. The two oppositions—healing and damage output—were an unsolvable problem, which each member had to face on their own to increase their strength.
Destroying the Scaly Armor was an extremely difficult task where its difficulty could be compared to that of shooting the bullseye with a dart! Also, everyone had to accurately hit the target, and there could be no mistakes.
Although there was default correction by the system, it still required extremely high skills and good cooperation. That was the reason why Lin Jie had ordered his teammates to go offline to rest, or else, many people would become dizzy and make mistakes halfway through the destruction of Scaly Armor.
Just at that moment, the Boss suddenly let out a roar and threw the Long Spear in his hand violently!
“Retreat three steps and continue attacking!”
Everyone followed Lin Jie’s command and took three steps back calmly. They then stopped retreating and continued attacking. The Boss’ attacking method was very simple: before his Scaly Armor broke, there would only be normal attacks and “Devil’s Throw”.
[Devil’s Throw]: When you throw the Devil’s Spear, 150% AOE damage is dealt to the target and units around the target. Cooldown time is 60 seconds. If you retrieve the Devil’s Spear, then the cooldown time will be refreshed.
The New Age was a game that aimed to be as realistic as possible. Skills such as throwing all had the special feature of only being able to be used once again after picking up the weapon. After the Boss lost his Devil’s Spear, his attack was still astounding, but his Attack Speed was half as fast as before, so the pressure on the Shield Specialists was instantly reduced.
Lin Jie’s eye lit up as he rushed towards the Devil’s Spear. The combo of Army Obliteration after Shield Cut, which landed on the Devil’s Spear, made it tremble and actually seemed to be disappearing.
-2,738!
-1,827!
-1,830!
-3,625!
-1,800!
After equipping the Devil’s Wrist Guard and Bloodsweeping Cloak, Lin Jie’s Attack increased yet again.
Lin Jie keenly grabbed that instant where the shaft of the Devil’s Spear wobbled and immediately used the technique of the combo in Enraged Mode. Pieces of the Devil’s Spear fell all over the ground after being attacked by Lin Jie, and blood could be seen oozing out, transforming into Lin Jie’s Attack Power and Health Points.
Boom—
The Devil’s Spear was broken into two by Lin Jie!
The Devil’s Scaly Armor could be destroyed by destroying each scale one by one, so of course, the Devil’s Spear could too! That was an obscure hint by the system. If the players had a set mindset and didn’t know how to think flexibly, then they would never be able to think of such a method.
After the Devil’s Spear was broken, the Boss would need 10 minutes to gather it again, and in that period of time, the attributes enhanced by the Devil’s Spear would disappear.
“Alright! Now the pressure is lesser.” Mixed Breathless took a look at the health, bar which fluctuated like a roller coaster, and finally heaved a sigh of relief. The pressure on the Healing jobs was also instantly decreased by half.
Lin Jie’s Holy Light Winged Armor flapped its wings, and the remaining energy of the Devil’s Spear was instantly absorbed inside. After being infused into the third wing, it had become the nourishment for the Holy Light Winged Armor.
‘It is a shame that the Scaly Armor is too close to the Boss, once it is destroyed, it will be swallowed by the Devil himself, or else who knows how fast my Holy Light Winged Armor can evolve.’ Lin Jie licked his lips, and as his Holy Light Winged Armor shook, he swung his Broken Blade yet again and started to destroy the Devil’s Scaly Armor!
Cling-Clang! Cling-Clang!
The scales on the Devil’s Scaly Armor were gradually destroyed, and the dark-purplish skin within was exposed. The difficulty of destroying the Scaly Armor also decreased as the number of scales reduced.
As the final scale was destroyed, the Boss’ form was finally completely revealed. The first stage, which was tested the most on accuracy, was finally cleared!
“Childe, quickly use Hunter’s Mark!”
“Devil Clone!”
The Boss bellowed as his body was split into six clones, each of them perfectly inherited all of the Boss’ attributes!
Devil•Varvis’ second skill: Devil Clone. The Boss would be split into six clones, and players had only one chance to attack. If they accurately hit the correct body, then the other clones would disappear, and the second stage would be cleared. Or else, the clones would be materialized, and besides the original Devil, the others would all trigger the “clone” attribute where each attack would cause the target to produce an additional clone.
Simply speaking, if one did not accurately hit the original Devil, then there would only be more and more clones. Of course, there was also a limit for the number of clones, so as long as the team’s MT was able to tank the damage, then it would be possible to make use of the Boss’ clones instead.
The method to find the real body was simple, just let a Hunter use Hunter’s Mark beforehand. Now, the fifth Devil’s head had a mark that represented its identity.
