Chapter 46: A Tricky Squad
As a warrior, the kobold overseer doesn't have many skills, slamming back and forth, sweeping two skills, and hammering the ground from time to time to put a shock wave to maintain the face of the boss.
Sherlock has also killed the boss for several days in the novice village, and it's not too troublesome to brush it alone, it's just a little slower.
90%
70%
……
The boss's HP dropped all the way to 50%, but the battle during the period was not as smooth as he expected, and he was distracted twice in a row in such a fierce battle, and was almost sent back to the city for free by a set of combos from the kobold overseer.
He himself felt quite strange, he had never made such a low-level mistake before, this time he was obviously so focused, but his consciousness suddenly blanked twice, although it was only for a moment, but in the boss battle, such a small mistake was enough to make him lose all his efforts.
However, he didn't have time to think about it at the moment, so he quickly glanced at his physical strength, there was still 55% left, and if nothing else, he could almost hold on until he finished fighting the boss.
"Miscellaneous, you've pissed me off!" The kobold overseer picked up his hammer and smashed it on the ground, and the ripples spread forward along the ground with the giant hammer as the center!
Shockwave: Unleashes a wave of energy in a conical area ahead, dealing 45% physical damage and stunning all enemies within 10 yards for 3 seconds.
The conventional way to dodge the shockwave is to jump, or run out of its attack range, but jumping to dodge when facing this boss is not a suitable choice, because after releasing the shockwave, the kobold overseer will inevitably sweep one after another.
When in the air, people have nowhere to borrow, and there is nowhere to hide in the face of a large-scale attack like sweeping, so they can only choose to run out of the attack range when dodging the shockwave.
After fighting for such a long time, the moment the boss swung the hammer, Sherlock had already sensed his purpose and immediately stepped back.
Successfully dodging the second blow, he was just about to raise his knife again to fight back when an arrow suddenly hit him in the back.
System Tip: If you receive an attack from a mysterious player***, you can counterattack, and killing the target and his teammates will not increase the PK value.
"Damn, I'm really afraid of something!" Sherlock, who received the attack, immediately understood what was happening, and immediately transformed into a semi-natural form of a jungle cat.
Although he has led the kobold overseer to a relatively remote place, the interior of the mine is full of passages that extend in all directions, and it is not small that players will pass through here.
It's just that he didn't expect that the other party had already gone to the land of a stone's throw and he didn't notice it at all, and he really suspected that his perceptual attributes had been added to the dog at this time.
Robbing the boss is a common thing in online games, and there are people who are obediently waiting to take over the plate when they see someone fighting the boss on the side, and there are those who go up to fight together, and there are more people who kill people directly and then grab the boss, the key is to see the strength and weakness of the two sides.
Seeing a person fighting a BOSS, Sherlock, who can still hold back and not rob, can only say one admiration, so he is not very angry with those strange players at the moment, but more complains about his bad luck.
He stared at it, and the person who came was a five-person squad, and the one who could shoot arrows from this distance was probably a ranger, and the magic missile that was flying two steps slower should be from the mage, and he couldn't tell the other three players.
In the face of a kobold overseer Sherlock, he is quite comfortable, but with a team of five players, it is ten deaths, he is a druid but not a thief, in this case, kill the five-person team, and then kill the boss, maybe only a thief of the level of Muruki can do it.
"Lao Tzu is the captain of the seventh team of the logistics department of the Wanbang Guild, if you know each other, get away from me, otherwise I will know your ID, and I will lead people to kill you until you quit the game, believe it or not." Sherlock took a few steps to widen the distance from the boss and shouted angrily at the five players opposite, with a hint of majesty in his tone.
Well, this is Sherlock's trick when facing others to grab the boss, and the name of the Wanbang Guild as one of the top ten guilds is also well-known to passers-by, and this guild is also famous for its domineering and short-sightedness.
Ordinary players don't dare to provoke at will when they see the players of the Wanbang Guild, and in the early stage of the game, while the Guild has not yet been officially established, it happens to be a fake tiger.
Of course, there is also a situation that the other party does not take the initiative to attack, he will say that he is from the Kyushu Guild, hoping to sell him a face, and he has also had several successful experiences.
Unfortunately, this time his routine did not work, hearing his shout, the ranger and mage of the five people opposite did not even hesitate, arrows and magic missiles continued to shoot towards Sherlock, and the other three also quickly approached.
Unlucky, there is really a mighty and unyielding, or I met a group of two stunned people, even if the method didn't work before, I would generally say two words to the plate or discuss, and he really hadn't encountered it directly
"Count on you as a kind!" With a cruel remark, he quickly ran out towards the passage on the other side, he knew the essence of the sixteen-character formula of guerrilla warfare, and there was no need to be hard at this time.
The boss's hatred is not very strong, and he didn't run for a while before he was pulled over by a team of five.
Out of everyone's sight, seeing that the other party did not continue to pursue, Sherlock also stopped and pulled, and went around in a big circle from the other direction and quietly touched it, as a professional player, if he ran away like this, he could not eat for a week, no, he couldn't eat cake.
"Captain, will that druid run back again?"
"It's better to run back, Natchey, is the Eye of Scouting inserted?" The warrior player who led the team said with a look of disdain.
"Plug it in immediately, hehe, I didn't expect that we would meet the boss as soon as we came, and it was still a boss with only half blood."
"Luck is good, but don't be careless, that druid can single-handedly beat this kobold overseer to half blood, it's not easy."
"It's not simple, it's not like we've been driven away!"
……
Sherlock hid to the side and listened to their conversation, and when he heard the warrior player ask the mage to let the detective go, he was also startled and quickly took two steps back, he didn't expect that a random team on the side of the road could encounter the prophecy method.
At level 10 Class Trial, a mage must choose a Spell Mastery, Necromancy, Elemental, Prophecy, or Spell.
Mages who choose elemental specialization account for more than half of the total number of people, after all, there is no problem with the endless generation of Shaping Spells, whether it is offensive or defensive.
The vast majority of the rest chose the necromantic system, which is good at manipulating life and death and senses, and the spell system that is proficient in various buffs and summoning spells.
In the end, less than one-tenth of the total number of mages chose to specialize in the school of prophecy.
The spell system of the prophecy system is probably the most chaotic, and the spells that seem to be unknown and are strange to use are generally prophecy-based, such as the Detective Eye that Sherlock is now worried about.
The Prophecy Eye of Detection and the Ranger's Reconnaissance are currently the only abilities that can detect the player's whereabouts, but one is active and one is passive.
Although the Eye of Scout can't see the attributes of the target like Scouting, it is much more convenient to use, as long as you put it on the ground, after someone enters the spell range, the mage who is the caster will be reminded, which can play a good warning role.
However, as with the Reconnaissance Technique, invisible units cannot be detected by the Eye of Detection, and to detect invisibility, you must use another spell, the True Eye, which is not something that can be learned at this level.
With the eye of detection, Sherlock didn't dare to approach casually, so he could only wait for an opportunity to get up to him.
It is not difficult for a five-person team with qualified equipment and tacit understanding to fight a commander-level BOSS, and the warrior skills in this team are far worse than Sherlock's, but with heavy armor and giant shields, and the priest adding blood on the side, it is no problem to resist the attack of the kobold overseer, creating a good output environment for the rangers and warrior monks in the team.
As for the mage, I can only say that since I have chosen the path of prophecy specialization, I must be prepared to output to the bottom, and the most common sentence of the prophecy method on the forum is that I have disgraced the master.
The battle of this squad proceeded in an orderly manner......
However, this makes Sherlock's situation quite awkward.
