Chapter 18: All Mages

Xia Chiyu raised his staff and threw out a big fireball without saying a word. The fireball hit the ironclad giant crocodile and exploded, turning into magma and spreading around the ironclad giant crocodile, and then Xia Chiyu's staff swung it into the air, and a large rain of ice arrows fell from the mid-air above the ironclad giant crocodile's head and fell on the ironclad giant crocodile.

Ice and fire were combined, and the iron armor on the ironclad giant crocodile suddenly made a "crackling" cracking sound, and the area covered by magma was all shattered, revealing the pink flesh below.

"Don't you even sing?" Gu Qinyan said, holding the iron sword in his hand and rushed forward.

"Leave me alone, take care of yourself first." Xia Chiyu didn't have a good airway, so he concentrated on the reaction time, lowered his head and dodged the tail of the ironclad giant crocodile, and then took off from the ground.

There is a 10-second interval between reaction times, so use it on the cutting edge. The most appropriate place to use that short moment of reaction time is the difference between a master and an ordinary player.

"Hmph, each other." Gu Qinyan said, the long sword stabbed three times in a row, and the sword qi pierced three blood mist at the armor-breaking position of the iron-armored giant crocodile, this attack obviously worked, directly knocking out nearly one-fifth of the iron-armored giant crocodile's HP, and the iron-armored giant crocodile also roared angrily, turned his head and opened his bloody mouth to pounce on Gu Qinyan.

"Did you turn to me?" Gu Qinyan sneered, the flames of Dou Qi erupted behind him, he also accelerated in mid-air, landed on the ground, and once again sprayed Dou Qi and retreated backwards for a distance, the iron sword was inserted back into his waist, and he reached out on the handle of the Tai Dao and posed as a knife drawer.

"You're too obvious about this move, isn't it? Monsters also have evasion AI. Xia Chiyu couldn't help but ask, the staff hit the ground, and the mud around the ironclad giant crocodile suddenly sank and turned into soft mud.

"Then don't be nosy." Gu Qinyan replied, still in the posture of drawing his sword.

"No deliberate nosy." Xia Chiyu said, and the staff kept waving.

In the short period of time when the ironclad giant crocodile struggled, six water balls condensed from the ironclad giant crocodile, and then a hurricane appeared next to the ironclad giant crocodile, circled around the behemoth, and scattered all the six water balls, and the water mist was suddenly wrapped around the ironclad giant crocodile. Xia Chiyu finally raised his staff to the sky, and the sky was instantly covered with dark clouds above the head of the iron-armored giant crocodile.

A thick bolt of lightning fell from the sky, and then quickly split into countless dense lightning snakes under the cover of this water curtain, forming a spherical power grid to envelop the ironclad giant crocodile. When the power grid finally dissipated, the body of the ironclad giant crocodile was still trembling due to the strong electric shock, unable to move, and the HP was instantly deducted by about a quarter.

Gu Qinyan kept the posture of drawing his sword at this time and rushed towards the ironclad giant crocodile, the speed was actually not fast, but when he arrived in front of the ironclad giant crocodile, the fighting spirit suddenly sprayed away from behind him, and Gu Qinyan's figure also turned into a white light, flashing from the ironclad giant crocodile in an instant, and then stopped on the other side of the ironclad giant crocodile and pushed the slightly unsheathed katana back.

The ironclad giant crocodile took two steps forward under the paralyzing effect of the electric shock, but suddenly a blood streak appeared on its entire huge body, and the last small piece of HP was instantly zeroed.

"Sure enough, it's all materials, this SS-level ironclad crocodile meat piece should be able to sell for some money. Iron armor scales, the material for heavy armor...... Let's sell it. Xia Chiyu looked at the drop list displayed on the screen floating in front of him, and immediately frowned and sighed, stretched out his hand and swiped on the screen, and put all the materials into the package.

"There are already five systems of wood, earth, water, fire and thunder." Gu Qinyan swiped his hand casually, put all the dropped items into the package without looking, stared at Xia Chiyu and asked, "Because of the mutual restraint of attributes, ordinary mages can master spells with three attributes at most, right?" It is impossible to master the mutual restraint attribute of the water system and the fire system at the same time. ”

"No one wants to casually reveal their skill set, right?" Xia Chiyu's face returned to flatness, and he said with a long sigh of relief.

Gu Qinyan was silent, and he could be regarded as acquiescing in these words. Xia Chiyu turned his head to treat Xiaoyu to wake her up, and as soon as Nizi got out of the coma, she stood up from the ground and complained: "Why did it take so long to wake people up!" ”

"There's no way to chase and fight monsters, if it leads you there, you can't directly return to zero." Xia Chiyu explained with a wry smile, Xiaoyu turned his head to look at the ironclad crocodile on the ground and couldn't help but be surprised: "You actually killed it!?" ”

Then Xiaoyu looked at Gu Qinyan with some admiration and sighed, "Did you kill him?" That's amazing! No wonder people say that those above level 50 and those below level 50 are two levels! ”

Gu Qinyan glanced at Xia Chiyu, but Xia Chiyu just smiled and said, "Yes, but don't worry, you will soon become a high-level player above level fifty." ”

"Don't worry, I won't miss you. Anyway, you're an assistant, and the more powerful we are, the better you are. Xiaoyu patted Xia Chiyu's shoulder and comforted, and then continued to lead the way: "Let's go, let's continue." ”

Taking advantage of the light rain to walk to the front, Gu Qinyan whispered to Xia Chiyu in the back and asked, "Are they really a bunch of rookies?" ”

"Yes, a guild established by a group of newcomers, I don't understand anything too esoteric." Xia Chiyu smiled slightly, "But it reminds me of when I was a rookie, and I was much happier at that time than now......"

"Hmph, is the game fun?" Gu Qinyan seemed to be stuck in memory. When you know a game well and are proficient, the feeling of excitement about learning a new skill and beating a dungeon is gone.

The rest of the year has been silent, their luck is good, the path they chose is relatively safe, occasionally there will be one or two monsters, but they are not very strong. The monsters that can be bypassed will be bypassed, and those that can't be bypassed will be defeated, and Xiaoyu has been a lot more careful after the battle just now, and he didn't dare to attack rashly, and he was safe and sound along the way.

They continued onwards and came to a particularly wide quagmire. The area was empty and flat, with few plants and no other monsters. A large muddy swamp blocked the way, and there were eggshell fragments floating in the swamp. Xia Chiyu stretched out his hand to stop Xiaoyu, and Gu Qinyan also stopped and began to observe the surrounding situation.

"This should be it, the final boss position." Gu Qinyan frowned and said, "There are no other monsters in such a large area, most of them are this. ”

"yes, and judging by the size of these floating eggshell fragments, they should be boss-level monsters." Xia Chiyu looked around and said, "Is there still only one boss-level monster in this version of a copy?" ”

"Not necessarily, there may be some hidden or rare bosses that drop the same rare level equipment as the boss or better specific treasures. However, it is difficult to say whether it can find or trigger the summoning condition. Gu Qinyan kicked a piece of eggshell in front of him and said, "This copy is called Hydra's Lair, is the final boss Hydra?" ”

Xia Chiyu shook his head: "I don't think so, according to the historical background of AO, the hydra is a monster of the same level as the dragon. When I used to be level 70, the dragon hadn't appeared in any dungeons. ”

"Monsters above level ninety belong to the 'Specificity Boss'." Gu Qinyan replied lightly, "This kind of boss, when the number of dungeon players is less than ten, it has a fixed health value, and when there are more than ten people, it will increase its attributes according to the proportion. Therefore, in the past, the kind of one-person single-pass copy could not be done in these copies. ”

Xia Chiyu suddenly frowned and said, "There is still this setting now...... It's all about increasing the difficulty, isn't it hard enough? ”

"All dungeons above level 80 are such specific bosses, but the general monsters are still ordinary settings. So levels eighty to ninety are a new dividing line, forcing those lone rangers to team up. Gu Qinyan said lightly.

Although it will be more difficult to fight the dungeon monsters before level 80 alone, some players with excellent skills can still brush them alone. Xia Chiyu had been upgrading the dungeon with a single brush before, and it wasn't until he joined the last guild that he conquered the dungeon with the guild's team as an auxiliary mage. This new setting is undoubtedly restricting players from playing alone.

Gu Qinyan glanced at Xia Chiyu: "Level 70 quit the game?" When did it return. ”

"A few weeks ago." Xia Chiyu replied with a flat face, "In short, it seems that the boss this time should be the hatchling of the Hydra." Let's go, go back and meet the others, and then team up and get ready to fight the boss. ”

Gu Qinyan stood in place, still observing the situation around him. Xia Chiyu repeated again: "It's a team." ”

"Put away your thoughts." Gu Qinyan snorted coldly and replied, "No matter what you're wary of, but I'm a person who does what I say. So since I said I'm going to team up with you guys to get through this dungeon, you don't have to worry about anything else. I hope I can explain this to you. ”

Xia Chiyu didn't say anything, just glanced at Gu Qinyan, and his expression eased slightly: "Okay, then let's go." ”

At this time, Xiaoyu grabbed Xia Chiyu's neck, then patted Gu Qinyan's shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't quarrel." Let's go back to the guild to celebrate after fighting the boss, and buy some food and good wine like last time. ”

Gu Qinyan didn't say anything, but Xia Chiyu shrugged his shoulders and walked forward by Xiaoyu.
