Chapter 109 Unstoppable

"The Boss can't hold on? Damn, who has the aggro? Any chance to grab the last hit??" He was shocked by the news and quickly asked.

In Glory, ownership of a monster is simple: it's based on aggro. Whoever has the most aggro on a monster at the end gets the monster, and the dropped items will be protected by the system for that party. For 30 seconds, no one else can pick them up.

Sounds simple, but the calculation of aggro is quite complex. Usually, the last hit generates the most aggro, even more than the same hit used at other times. This is easy to understand, as that hit took the monster's life, so naturally, it's going to hate that player more.

Besides that, the first hit that provokes the monster also gets an aggro boost. And it depends on the specific situation. The first hit initiated by the player and the first hit in retaliation after the monster attacks have different aggro values.

In short, the rules are simple, but the calculation of aggro is not.

Especially when facing a Boss, which has a name, background story, and personality. These details create unique aggro rules for each Boss. For example, a fatal last hit might generate five times the aggro for some Bosses, while others might generate ten or twenty times the aggro.

Some Bosses get angrier and increase their aggro after their health drops to a critical level. Other Bosses are very sensitive to the first hit and generate a lot of aggro...

Therefore, understanding a Boss's aggro rules is crucial in the fight for the Boss. However, the last hit is usually a reliable way to secure the aggro. That's why the guild leader asked this question. When the aggro between two teams is close, the team behind can often surpass the other with the last hit.

But the response he received surprised him even more: "No, it's not that the Boss can't hold on."

"Then what is it?"

"It's us, you guys can't hold on against the Boss!"

"What? Who's messing around?"

"No one, no one is messing around. We all can't hold on!"

"What nonsense are you..." The guild leader was stunned as he typed. He suddenly realized what was happening. At the same time, their discussion group exploded, and it was clear that the "can't hold on" message wasn't just from one guild, but from all of them.

They all couldn't hold on against the Boss.

Why?

The guild leaders initially found it unbelievable. They were about to retort, but they suddenly realized the reason halfway through typing their messages!

Why?

Because these guys fighting the Boss right now were exploring it for the first time!

Although these players had unusually high levels, they were still Glory newbies. Hunting wild Bosses was usually done by elite teams from the big guilds. They were from the Heavenly Domain, and they had been fighting in Glory for years, from the normal servers to the Heavenly Domain, giving them ample knowledge.

They were familiar with dungeons, and they knew how to kill Bosses.

But what about these people now? They were truly doing something for the first time.

The Blue Crystal Knight had only been killed three times in the tenth server so far, and all were by the elite teams of the big guilds. How could these new players have any experience killing such a Boss?

Killing a Boss they had never killed before, even if they had read the guides, wiping ten or eight times wasn't surprising.

Club guild players can leave ordinary players further and further behind in levels, not just because they have leveling maniacs. More importantly, club guilds have experts and veterans. What's the meaning of these people? They can reduce losses when leading a team through dungeons because they know how to play.

As for the five newbie chickens, they don't know how many times they have to die and be resurrected to clear a new dungeon. In Glory, dying costs experience. Dying once slows down the leveling speed. After struggling to explore, the levels are naturally worlds apart from the club guild players.

And now, these players, who had been leveling smoothly with the help of experts and veterans, were finally facing the difficulties of exploring new content. Faced with the Blue Crystal Knight, a being far more powerful than a dungeon Boss, they simply couldn't withstand it.

At first, each guild had a lot of people, and it was chaotic, so they didn't notice the awkwardness of the players facing the Boss. Then, they boldly sent half of their people to chase down the players from the Xingxin guild. When they received information that the Xingxin guild was gathering, the guild leaders were worried about problems there, but the half of their forces left to deal with the Boss had already collapsed.

The Blue Crystal Knight and his knight order had summoned their warhorses, lined up, and launched a general charge. They charged left and right, and the rolling sand was stirred up under their iron hooves, creating a yellow dragon that undulated under the western desert. The players from the various guilds were scattered all around the yellow dragon.

How could these players have seen such a scene? Glory has no mount setting. And the Knight class among the 24 classes represents a class, a symbol of spirit, not a cavalry soldier.

But the Blue Crystal Knight and his subordinates were a cavalry team. Tall, fierce, and aggressive, when they charged over, should they attack the person or the horse? Which part of the horse should they attack to be effective? What if their weapons aren't long enough to attack the person? While the players were still thinking about these questions, they were knocked to the ground. The unlucky ones were trampled a few times by iron hooves and slashed a few times by the knights on horseback, causing their health to drop rapidly. After being charged back and forth a few times, they were immediately lying dead on the spot.

Some of them were led by veteran players, but they couldn't command them at all. Helpless, they asked the guild leaders for support while urgently calling back half of the forces chasing the Xingxin guild.

That half of the force was also confused by the summons, and they couldn't understand how the half of the force left behind was being slaughtered by the Boss. But when they turned back and made contact, they were all stunned.

What kind of scene was this? How should they deal with it? How could they hit people on horseback? Why does it seem like attacking the horse has no effect? Ouch, I fell! Ouch, I was trampled by a horse! Ouch, where did that sword come from? Ouch, I'm dead!

Corpses were everywhere. The scene could be described as corpses strewn across the field.

How powerful was the attack of a wild Boss? For those cloth-wearing players with low health, there were skills that could kill them in one hit. The Blue Crystal Knight's knight subordinates were not as powerful as the Boss, but they were not comparable to ordinary elite monsters. Any hit was enough to make any player feel pain.

The guild leaders in the discussion group were in chaos. Because they knew the strength of the Blue Crystal Knight very well. After carefully considering it, they realized that the so-called human wave tactics they sent out were not enough to deal with it. No matter how many people they sent, without effective tactics, they were just cannon fodder in front of the Boss. It could easily wipe out an entire guild and still be lively and kicking.

At this point, sending support was too late. Aside from their core elites, sending anyone else from the guild was just sending them to their deaths to pay tuition.

The faces of the guild leaders were pale. At this moment, they realized what Jun Moxiao was planning. He used the elites to lure away their elites, leaving their human wave to face the Boss. Their human wave was so powerless in front of the Boss, so what about Xingxin's?

"Our people can't do it, so wouldn't Xingxin's people be courting death even more?" Someone questioned, but someone immediately objected, "It's different."

"How is it different?"

"The command is different..."

With one sentence, everyone fell silent.

Command... it was too different. Their command was one of the best in the entire Glory scene, but what about theirs? They were too embarrassed to compare themselves with them.

In the western desert, the players of the thirteen guilds were either dead, injured, or scattered in disarray across the map. And it wasn't over yet. The Blue Crystal Knight was still leading his knight order to pursue and kill them. The pursuit was accurate because they had mounts.

At this moment, the Xingxin guild had gathered their army and walked up neatly from behind the sand dunes. The formation was orderly. As soon as they appeared from behind the sand dunes, they met several players from the club guilds who were fleeing for their lives. When these players saw this formation, they were so scared that they didn't know which way to run. In just one second, they were slaughtered by the Blue Crystal Knight order rushing behind them.

The aggro of the Blue Crystal Knight was already in chaos. Now it was in an active attack state, not a passive counterattack state. After killing a few people, he saw another target in his field of vision, and without hesitation, he pointed his sword, and the knight order swept towards the Xingxin guild like a whirlwind.

The yellow sand they stirred up flew up and, with the wind, hit the Xingxin players like raindrops. Of course, it was just a show of force and didn't cause any damage.

"Mage group!" Ye Xiu sent a message, but it was in the guild channel. He mobilized the entire guild, so naturally, he used the guild channel to command the battle. With a cry of "Mage group," all the mages, regardless of which group or team, raised their staves. The gems inlaid on the staff ends shone brightly in the desert sun, displaying a kaleidoscope of colors.

"Ice Wall!"

Seeing the right opportunity, Ye Xiu gave an order. All the mages seemed to be waiting for this moment and immediately began chanting. Magical fluctuations began to surge at the ends of the staves, followed by a series of pings. In just one or two seconds, nearly a hundred ice walls stood in layers upon layers on the desert, blocking the front of the Blue Crystal Knight order.

Bang!

A loud noise immediately came. The Blue Crystal Knight order did not waver at all because of the appearance of the ice wall and continued their charge.

Bang bang bang bang!

One ice wall after another was easily shattered by them.

"Thief group, go!" Ye Xiu gave another order. Twenty or thirty thieves, crouching down, had already found gaps and sneaked into the world of ice walls.

Hu Die Lan

I discovered it's really a coincidence. It seems like Monday is often a one-chapter day? Have you all noticed?
