In the entire team, only one player did not shout.
It was Luoluo, but looking at Chu Tian’s motivating speech at the front, her eyes were filled with deep affection.
“Yiyi jie, big brother is so good at bluffing!” Meng de Bi An said excitedly to Luoluo next to her, waving her little fists.
Luoluo looked at her excited appearance and said helplessly, “If you know he’s bluffing, why are you still shouting along?”
“I don’t know, I just feel so excited!” Meng de Bi An shouted excitedly and replied to Luoluo, then immediately added:
“Big brother is too handsome. I want to marry him when I grow up.”
Luoluo completely took it as a joke, patted her head, and said, “Then you need to grow up quickly. Your big brother isn’t just good at bluffing, he’s also very good at bullying people.”
“Aiya, don’t pat my head! I won’t grow tall!” Meng de Bi An dodged Luoluo’s hand and then asked excitedly, “How does Yiyi jie know big brother is good at bullying people? Isn’t it…”
“Don’t talk nonsense. You’re still a child, what are you thinking about?”
“Yiyi jie, your face is red!”
As the two of them were playing around, Chu Tian stepped into the teleportation portal of the purple light curtain.
Everyone in the team followed suit one after another.
The map changed, and everyone arrived in a cave.
The cave was filled with strange rocks, and only one path led forward.
From within the cave came howling sounds, which was the origin of the name Howling Cave.
In reality, this sound was merely the echo of the wind blowing into the cave.
Chu Tian led the group forward. Along the path in the cave, there were no monsters.
After walking for about a thousand meters, the front suddenly opened up.
They arrived in an underground world, lush and green, with strange trees. It was an ocean of forest.
Looking up, there was a huge cave entrance above their heads, revealing the sky outside.
The sunlight shone in, not dazzling.
In front of them was a shallow river.
This underground world, with sunlight and a water source, had fostered the growth of this forest.
“Prepare for battle!” Chu Tian said in the team.
Everyone was stunned. They hadn’t reached the monster area yet, so why prepare for battle?
At this moment, upstream from the river, a giant turtle slowly crawled down along the river channel.
“Holy crap, boss, you’re not planning to fight this turtle, are you?” Jian Zhi Cang Tian asked.
“Yes, what’s wrong?”
Jian Zhi Cang Tian said with a frown, “This turtle isn’t a Boss, its HP is thicker than a Boss’s. Why are we fighting it? It’s a yellow name mob, and it’s not blocking the path!
Moreover, I heard that this turtle will transform when its HP reaches fifty percent, thirty percent, and ten percent, becoming incredibly huge.
After transforming, it can directly crush tanks. That’s a guaranteed instant kill skill!”
Chu Tian took out three bottles of [Giant Growth Potions] bought from the shop and handed them to Jian Zhi Cang Tian, saying, “Don’t worry, I have a plan. I’ll tell you to take this when the time comes.”
Jian Zhi Cang Tian took them and no longer questioned, saying, “Alright!”
“Everyone get ready, unleash the dogs… no… unleash Jian Zhi Cang Tian!”
“Hahahahaha…”
Chu Tian’s small joke relaxed everyone quite a bit, as this was their first time tackling this dungeon and going straight for the expert difficulty, which put a lot of psychological pressure on them.
“You son of a bitch…”
Jian Zhi Cang Tian unleashed a taunt and charge, colliding with the turtle.
Three cold sweats broke out on Chu Tian’s face. Why did warriors always like to shout this phrase when using taunt skills?
Could it really increase aggro? Or were they influenced by some ill-mannered ox from ancient games?
“All healers, keep Jian Zhi Cang Tian’s health up. Ranged players, start attacking. Melee, block positions and surround him,” Chu Tian issued a series of commands.
“Yiyi, Rourou, don’t attack yet. Wait for my command!”
“Holy Light guides you, you go too! Watch your aggro.”
Hearing the commands, everyone rushed into the river. The water only came up to their calves.
With everyone trampling, it gradually became murky.
The giant turtle let out roars, and being pinned down by all the melee players, it couldn’t move an inch.
This maneuver was basic, and everyone understood it.
Bosses in Tian Dao wouldn’t stand still and face off against tanks head-on.
They would constantly reposition themselves, always trying to attack the tank’s back.
This required melee classes to help with positioning, and also required two other tanks to help the main tank keep the Boss calibrated in place.
At this moment, Chu Tian checked everyone’s damage. Their basic attacks were around 50 damage, meaning everyone’s attack power had reached about 400.
At this stage, players with such attack power could be considered quite high.
He hadn’t seen those people outside the dungeon entrance, who were shouting for groups, boasting about their damage.
Those with attack power in the 300s looked very proud, and many teams invited them.
They would always ask about the stats of the personnel in the other team.
When they discovered they were lower than themselves, they would dismissively refuse the invitation.
It seemed that the people Jian Zhi had gathered were all powerful players from the guild.
Damage figures in the dozens and hundreds continuously appeared above the giant turtle’s head.
Among them, two damage numbers were particularly striking. One was Sheng Guang Hu You Zhe Ni, who, with a single Eruption, dealt over 400 damage.
The other with the highest damage was actually Jian Zhi Cang Tian. Chu Tian had upgraded his Silver-grade weapon to thirty.
With this, even his shield warrior skill, with one hit, managed to display a value of over 400.
“Holy crap, over 400, who did that?”
Someone in the team asked.
Their highest attack skills only dealt dozens of damage, and some barely exceeded a hundred.
The sudden appearance of over 400 damage naturally caused shock and surprise.
Moreover, Sheng Guang Hu You Zhe Ni’s basic attacks even dealt over a hundred damage.
“Damn, hurry up and attack, it’s Sheng Guang Laoda,” another player replied.
“Why don’t you ask who dealt the 200+ damage?” Jian Zhi Cang Tian said.
“Uh… who is it?” This player was truly obliging and actually asked.
Jian Zhi Cang Tian chuckled and said, “That would naturally be me!”
This shocked the team members again. Jian Zhi Laoda, a shield warrior, was dealing such high output.
Then what were they, the damage dealers, supposed to be? Wasn’t this demoralizing?
For a moment, everyone looked at the smug Jian Zhi Cang Tian in silence.
Chu Tian transformed into a leopard and observed in stealth for a full minute, seeing that Jian Zhi Cang Tian’s aggro should be stable.
He himself hadn’t made a move, nor had he let Yi Zhi Rourou and Luoluo attack yet. This was naturally because he was afraid of directly causing an aggro pull.
Once the aggro became chaotic, it would be difficult for the tanks to regain it, and it could even lead to a team wipe.
Now, he felt it was about time, so he decided to go up and try.
His output was now lower than Yi Zhi Rourou’s. Yi Zhi Rourou had a level 20 gold staff.
Furthermore, the skills of magical classes generally had much higher multipliers than physical skills.
Opening: Rake, Shred.
-578! -62!
True damage, completely ignoring any damage reduction or defense. Chu Tian was now level 31, and his true damage was as high as 62 points.
This was almost as much as someone else’s skill damage.
After several consecutive Shreds, depleting his energy, during the interval while waiting for energy to recover.
He transformed into Moonkin form, casting Moonfire, Sunfire.
He unleashed these two skills. Regardless of the damage, the main purpose was to trigger the true damage effect on his weapon.
After Chu Tian joined the fray, all the players were once again shocked.
They had initially thought that Sheng Guang Laoda’s damage had surpassed the Guild Leader.
Now it seemed that he and the Guild Leader were still a bit behind. They hadn’t seen that the Guild Leader, just using a combo-building skill, had dealt over 500 high damage.
At this moment, Chu Tian felt it was about time, and he shouted in the team, “Yiyi, Rourou, get ready… full firepower!”
