Chapter 0545 Visceral Flurry
If it is according to what Captain Xuechen said, then the 'split' of the devil starfish Tatusa is more accurately described as 'copying'...... This is a terrifying special ability, and Boss Shadow Feng once gave an example of a monster with the ability to 'copy' when he taught Wu Ming to learn the 'Way of MT'...... The focus is on discovering its rules, and most of the non-AI monsters' every move is run through a given program, the difference is only in the complexity of the 'rules' and the conditions that induce them...... As long as the corresponding 'regularity' is found, the 'replication' of the devil starfish can be avoided, or at least the number of replicas can be reduced.
Although Wu Ming has such an idea, but he has no experience in fighting against the devil starfish, so he can only take one step at a time, this time the battle is personally commanded by the regiment commander Xuechen, using a double T formation, melee priority strategy, Lei Biao and Wu Ming are in the second echelon, and the remaining 7 melee units are in the second echelon, as for the largest number of ranged units and healing units are standing far away...... It is said that this arrangement is also to eliminate a 'replication' inducement condition, and other tactics have been tried in the previous battles against the Devil Starfish, but they have not been very effective.
Wu Ming's strength has been affirmed by most of the team members in the previous battle against the highly poisonous sea urchin, and the 'feat' of crushing the thirteen-headed monsters alone, including the two-headed elite monsters, is really impressive, and as a 2T and Lei Biao boss to fight against the terrifying devil starfish also makes everyone feel at ease.
"Lei Biao will open the monster in half a minute, melee units are on standby, all ranged units are not allowed to throw skills, and healing units pay attention to MT's blood slot, this time strive to solve the battle before the third division of the boss." Xuechen was making the final pre-battle deployment, and Wu Ming could feel that he was trying his best to hide his nervousness.
When the regiment commander began to count down, Lei Biao turned his head to Dafei not far behind him while making a good starting gesture for the battle, and the rabbit and the rookie glanced at it, and the latter nodded nervously, signaling Brother Biao to rest assured, we will definitely complete the task...... In fact, only the four of them in the entire team knew the law and inducing conditions of the Devil Starfish Tatusa's 'split', and it was unknown why they didn't report it to the regiment leader.
Wu Ming was also quite nervous about this battle, and specially applied several buffs to himself, such as the Troll Brute Force (which increases the two attributes of strength and endurance by 25 points each for 10 minutes) and the Blood Elixir of Rock (which increases the maximum health by 130 points for 10 minutes) attached to the Frostwolf Recipe...... The priest and shaman in the rear also blessed Wu Ming with the Truth Technique, Tenacity and Earth Shield, and the head of Xuechen, who was a paladin, also threw a blessing aura to Wu Ming...... The attributes have increased by more than 1 times compared to usual, the big team is different, and Wu Ming has never had this feeling of being full of strength in his body.
"Here we go." Lei Biao burst out of his mouth with three words on his expressionless face, and then carried a blue one-handed sword and a turtle-shaped one-handed shield and pounced on the devil starfish, and various skills and close-quarters special skills greeted the boss fiercely, in order to stabilize the hatred, Lei Biao used all the strength to eat, and the blood groove of the devil starfish faded little by little at a speed that was within reach of the naked eye.
Wu Ming silently counted down while staring at Lei Biao's combat movements, as a 2T, he is not only a candidate tank, but also has to play the DPS role, he has to control the hatred to make himself the second hatred target of the boss, so that in the event of an accident, the responsibility of the tank can be replenished in time...... After about 20 seconds of countdown, Lei Biao slashed off about 4% of the boss's health, and Wu Ming launched an attack from the left, and the frost wolf battle corn giant mallet slammed into one of the tentacles of the devil starfish.
The lethality of the devil starfish is not strong, only the strength of the general rare elite monster, its bloated body moves slowly, swinging its tentacles from time to time to attack, the damage is not high, Wu Ming's second injury is only about 65 points, Lei Biao's may be higher, but it will not turn over 100 ...... There's really nothing to worry about with this kind of performance, even if it's split into 4 heads, Xuechen's team can deal with it calmly.
Just when Wu Ming was deeply puzzled, Captain Xuechen shouted in the public channel, "The BOSS has been reduced by 8%, and the melee unit stepped forward, closely observe the state changes of the BOSS, and be careful of the AOE skills." As soon as the leader's words fell, the Devil Starfish began to stir, and its five tentacles trembled at high speed like a convulsion, and a large amount of dark green spewed out of it.
"Dancing with internal organs." Wu Ming looked up at the Devil Starfish's skill guide bar, "Damn, this skill is too disgusting!" "It's said that creatures like starfish will spit out their internal organs to confuse enemies for self-preservation when stimulated, but I didn't expect game designers to put this ability into the game.
THE SKILL CALLED VISCERAL FLURRY IS NOT VERY POWERFUL, PLAYERS WHO ARE HIT BY VISCERA ONLY LOSE SOME HEALTH, AND CASUALLY MEMORIZE A PAINLESS BLOOD DEBUFF (MINUS 5% OF THE HEALING EFFECT RECEIVED), AND THE PRIEST IN THE REAR ONLY USES A HOLY FOUNTAIN TO LIFT THE BLOOD GAUGE OF ALL MELEE UNITS......
"WHY DON'T YOU USE HOLINESS TO DISPEL THIS DEBUFF." WU MING SECRETLY WONDERED, ALTHOUGH THIS BLOOD STAIN DEBUFF WAS NOT POWERFUL...... But it's an eyesore to be placed there, and it may not be dispelled! When Wu Ming thought this, the seven melee units had already surrounded the boss, and the ranged units in the rear were still holding their ground...... Captain Xuechen may have thought that the 'Spell Attack' would induce the Magic Starfish to split.
"Steer clear of frontal attacks, don't grab hatred." Lei Biao said in a deep voice, and at the same time changed into the red two-handed sword, attacking the boss from the front, and the others very consciously went around the back and left of the boss to attack, which shows that Lei Biao is indeed quite authoritative in the team, or it shows that the members of this team have cultivated a considerable tacit understanding.
Wu Ming has been observing Lei Biao's combat movements, at such a close distance, to discover the subtle movements of those melee special skills, melee special skills are the boundary between skills and basic attacks 'skills', these skills themselves can be guided by actions like regular skills, but they cannot be activated directly from the skill panel, a bit similar to 'SRT skills', but the difficulty is lower. Wu Ming has only comprehended the two melee special skills of sword spinning and cross slashing, of course, he has also comprehended the advanced melee special skill of spinning mallet disarming from the sword spin.
After the fat magic starfish used a shameless 'visceral dance', the speed became much faster and the lethality was also stronger, frequently using its tentacles to whip Lei Biao and Wu Ming, and occasionally spinning twice rapidly, using skills similar to the warrior's whirlwind slash...... The players did not show weakness, and one by one they blasted out various strong attack skills, and it only took a few minutes to cut off half of the blood groove of the Devil Starfish.
"It's really lucky, there was no split in the P1 stage, and the next stage is the second stage...... The BOSS may split, and MT pays attention to signaling. "Captain Xuechen shouted excitedly, the devil starfish Tatusa will go through three stages, the second stage will be triggered under 50% of the health value, the boss will launch a powerful AOE skill, and then it will enter the enhanced mode, the attack is accompanied by lightning, with a splash effect; The third stage is the lore phase, which starts below 10% health, and the devil starfish becomes popular all over his body, and at the same time frequently uses the visceral flurry skill until he hangs up...... In each of these three phases, there is the potential for a split.
