Ta Tianqing
Chapter 17 South Gate Instance, Maximum Difficulty!
Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao entered the dungeon.
At the same time, both pets were summoned.
The Zhu Niao, and the Sword Dragon.
Both were level 100.
Now the Zhu Niao’s magic attack had reached 56,000 points.
A terrifying turret.
Inside the dungeon, the first enemies were small monsters, giant apes as far as the eye could see.
These giant ape clan warriors were howling as they attacked the Nantian Gate (South Heaven Gate).
At this moment, Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao saw a heavenly god to the side, but he was already on his last breath. Lin Chen knew very well that this was just part of the story.
He skipped the dialogue.
After all, he was here to save time.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Mengyao commanded the Sword Dragon forward, attracting the aggro of the giant apes.
When the giant apes attacked the Sword Dragon, it triggered the Sword Dragon's skill, Roar of Revenge!
With a roar, it attracted all the surrounding giant apes' aggro.
At this time, Lin Chen didn't hold back any skills, and immediately had the Zhu Niao begin chanting, directly summoning its talent skill, Fentian Zhidi (Burning the Heavens and Scorching the Earth), instantly turning the entire map area into a huge fire field.
On Liu Mengyao's side, since the Sword Dragon was tanking the monsters, she only needed to focus on healing the Sword Dragon. Lin Chen wasn't idle either, he also began to chant...
Forbidden spell!
Wind Violence Field!
[Wind Violence Field (Forbidden Spell): After use, the area within 500 yards of the caster will become a storm field, with constant raging winds, dealing magic attack power *0.75 damage per second to all targets, and slowing all targets' movement speed and attack speed by 50%. At the same time, the caster's movement speed, casting speed, and attack speed are all increased by 50%. Duration: 10 minutes. Mana cost: 8000 points, casting time: 10 seconds, cooldown time: 30 minutes!]
An invincible crowd control skill!
The reason this skill was a forbidden spell was because it not only dealt damage, but also had extremely strong control capabilities.
In legion battles, it could be said to be a means of deciding victory or defeat.
In addition, wind-type spells could also create chemical reactions with fire-type spells.
The wind fuels the fire!
When Lin Chen used the forbidden spell, it instantly made the fire sea created by the Zhu Niao even bigger, and the damage values also rose rapidly. For a time, huge and scarlet numbers floated above all the giant apes attracted by the Sword Dragon...
The health of these giant apes was constantly decreasing.
But this was a level 100 dungeon!
And still the most difficult dungeon before the new expansion.
The giant ape warriors in front were all small monsters, but there were as many as eight thousand of them, and each one had more than 100,000 health.
Why was this dungeon so difficult?
First of all, the difficulty Lin Chen chose was the highest difficulty, hell level!
And also because, the Nantian Gate dungeon didn't have any fancy things at all. For example, in other dungeons, you could destroy some formations to destroy various monster buffs, or even add various buffs to your own members, and then kill monsters.
Or some dungeons had places where you could use skill to trick the monsters.
But in the Nantian Gate, there were no formations for you to strengthen.
It was unrealistic to build a formation temporarily, because that would take a lot of time.
So, you could only output like crazy!
Eight thousand giant ape warriors, and those were just small monsters.
One monster with 100,000 health, eight thousand monsters that was 800 million health!
You had to forcefully deal 800 million damage to pass the first stage and clear all the small monsters.
Clearing small monsters was easy, but if you wanted to save time, you had to have enough output!
In fact, if Lin Chen could find a dungeon that hadn't cleared the Nantian Gate for the first time, he would definitely find a few more teammates, but this game had been around for twenty years, and there were many max-level players. There were fewer players like Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao who hadn't cleared it for the first time.
What's more, many people were deleting their accounts now, and it was even harder to find people.
Lin Chen could only rely on himself, and the cooperation of two pets.
"Sword Dragon, stop roaring, you can transfer the aggro now. These small monsters can't catch up with it. Let the Sword Dragon use Galloping to attract more monsters!" Lin Chen immediately communicated with Liu Mengyao.
Liu Mengyao's operation was also smooth.
In fact, in this kind of fully immersive game, there was no keyboard or gamepad.
The so-called operation relied on your reaction speed.
As long as you didn't daze, the reaction speed was generally within a second.
Even people who had been playing this game for a long time would have faster and faster reaction speeds. Some people had even published research on this, saying that this game could indeed train people's reaction abilities.
That was why this game was so popular on the entire Blue Star, with billions of players!
The Sword Dragon stopped roaring and galloped around to attract monsters.
It circled around and even brought back a few elite monsters.
These elite monsters were also called Giant Ape Generals.
They had even more health and stronger attack power. The Sword Dragon became low on health after turning around. Fortunately, Lin Chen reacted quickly. His speed was even faster. In the Wind Violence Field, Lin Chen's movement speed had exceeded 30 yards per second!
He immediately moved to the Sword Dragon's side and used a skill on himself...
[Wind Spirit Art: After use, increases the probability of dodging physical attacks by 50%, ignoring any sure-hit effects. Duration: 30 seconds!]
This was a life-saving skill for wind-type mages, and the cooldown time was only one minute. In PK, Wind Spirit Art was a god-tier skill. Don't look at its single skill effect and short description, but in reality, it was a skill that made all physical-type professions extremely headache.
Because as long as a wind mage activated Wind Spirit Art, even a sharpshooter would have difficulty hitting him.
So Lin Chen could take over the tanking from the Sword Dragon, giving Liu Mengyao time to heal the Sword Dragon.
Of course, the 50% dodge probability meant that Lin Chen would still be attacked.
But Lin Chen could still operate here. He only needed to deliberately dodge the attacks of the Giant Ape Generals.
The attacks of the Giant Ape Warriors couldn't kill Lin Chen either.
He also had equipment damage reduction!
After the switch, Lin Chen used his speed to pull these monsters towards the Zhu Niao, while the Zhu Niao, as a turret, didn't need to move at all. It only needed to stay comfortably in place and watch the densely packed Giant Ape monsters chasing after its master and the Sword Dragon, and then prepare its skills!
The next moment, the Zhu Niao activated the skill Yangyan Zhirao (Sunflame Scorch)!
A beam of flames, under the effect of the Wind Violence Field, could help the Zhu Niao's flames, and almost every spark burned these giant apes. At the same time, Lin Chen, as the activator of the Wind Violence Field, could also control the wind direction within the Wind Violence Field, supplementing a wave of damage while controlling their movement speed.
A minute later, these monsters were all at low health.
During this period, Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao both leveled up, but neither of them showed any joy. It was too early to be happy now. Liu Mengyao used several large healing skills to restore the Sword Dragon's vitality.
Then the Sword Dragon rushed out again, to attract monsters in another direction.
Only three minutes had passed since the battle started.
However, in the slaughter field created by Wind Violence Field and Fentian Zhidi (Burning the Heavens and Scorching the Earth), more than a thousand Giant Ape corpses had already been laid down!
This efficiency was completely enough!
