All players: I can choose my own dungeon rewards.

In the dark night, under the dim starlight, a large group of terrifying creatures were rushing towards the camp at high speed. Their gathered black shadows looked like a terrifying mudslide coming from high above.

"We are trapped! We have no choice but to fight!"

The first reaction of more than 20 players facing the impact was naturally to run away, but after trying many times, they found themselves in a "ghost wall" state. No matter how they ran, they would return to the direction where the black shadow in the distance was rushing towards them. It was clear that they could only fight those things head-on.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on? With so many monsters charging at us, how can we stop them with so few people?!"

"Don't say such discouraging words! You will definitely die faster if you don't try!"

Some people were close to emotional collapse under the high pressure, while others managed to remain calm and launched attacks before the group of monsters arrived in front of them.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Boom! Boom...

For a moment, the gunner players were the most active. They held their guns and madly fired at the black shadows attacking from the front. Some of them threw grenades and even took out rocket launchers to fire, as if they were using all their hidden weapons.

Mage players are a little more low-key. Those who have long-range attack spells try their best to release spell attacks, and those who don't have enough range turn to auxiliary roles, such as creating a large muddy swamp in front of everyone to limit the attacking monsters.

Apart from sending flying summons forward to fight low, the summoners did not rashly choose to send their own treasures up. They arranged them to guard around the crowd and wait until the monsters really approached before fighting to the death.

Players of the other three professions can basically only watch helplessly. They either lack long-range attack capabilities or dare not move too far forward. They hold weapons in their hands and wait for fate to come.

Wang Zhifan was in a camp tent thousands of meters away from this group of people, but he was the real operator.

He closely monitored the overall battle situation and found that the firepower of more than 20 players was not enough to stop the group of alien beasts, so he secretly provided them with some assistance.

Specifically, it is to use the power of ice to slow down the monsters, so that the monsters at the back will rush into the monsters in front that are suddenly frozen and unable to move, causing a chain reaction of impact and leading to chaos.

In this way, the players are equivalent to shooting at living targets. Although the monsters are thick-skinned and tough and there are not many casualties for a while, there will always be a moment when they will be wiped out if they just keep taking a beating.

The NPCs who came out of the camp to support soon arrived and joined the battle. They used the tactic of group archery attack. As rows of sharp arrows covered the chaotic group of monsters, they further accelerated the demise of the monsters.

But the alien beasts would not let the situation get out of their control. After all, the alien beasts were controlled by a group of beast speakers. Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly wrong, the barbarians hiding in the dense forest in the distance blew the horn in an attempt to call back the alien beasts to see if they could regroup and charge again.

At the same time, in the dense forest, the two-meter-tall barbarian whom Wang Zhifan had seen earlier had a look of astonishment and anger on his face. He couldn't believe that his plan to clean up the outsiders had suffered a major blow just at the beginning. He immediately punched the tree next to him hard, causing the whole tree to shake exaggeratedly.

"No! It shouldn't be like this! My plan cannot have this outcome! All warriors! Follow me and attack! I will kill all the outsiders and take everything from them!"

After the barbarian leader finished shouting, he was ready to lead hundreds of barbarians around him to take a detour to the other side of the camp.

Originally, he led this group of people here to deal with the finishing work after the destruction of the foreigners' camp, such as bringing all the foreigners' treasures back to the barbarian camp, but now they have to participate in the battle, otherwise this operation will end in complete failure.

When the barbarian leader was leading his people out of the dense forest, an unexpected figure appeared before him. It turned out to be the old wizard whom he respected the most.

I saw an old wizard with a skinny and hunched body riding on a large alien beast that looked like a cow, and behind him was the most precious and dangerous alien beast skull in the barbarian camp.

"Old wizard!"

The barbarian leader knew that this person must have a purpose for his appearance, especially since he brought the most important treasure in the camp, so he stopped his march and greeted the old barbarian.

The old barbarian on the back of the strange beast looked at him and said:
"I learned from the gods that this operation would encounter unexpected difficulties, so I brought it with me... Victory will definitely be ours! We must let outsiders know how powerful we are!"

"Roar! Victory belongs to us!"

"Roar! Kill all outsiders!"

……

As the old wizard finished speaking, all the barbarians, including the barbarian leader, fell into frenzy, shouting and yelling wildly like talking wild beasts.

The reason why they were so excited was that they had known since childhood that there was a super killer weapon in their barbarian camp that only the most respected old wizards could use. Once it was used, no enemy would be taken seriously!
Amid the fanatical cheers of the barbarians, the old wizard on the back of the large strange beast began to act.

He was seen holding two small human skulls in his hands, and began to chant loudly with his eyes closed, shaking his head. As the sound of his chanting became faster and faster, the skull of the strange beast placed behind him also responded.

The skull first trembled slightly, then the tremor became more and more intense, and then it actually rose vertically into the night sky, and its empty eye sockets slowly aimed at the outsiders in the distance who were still shooting arrows at the fleeing monsters!
Since this group of people were quite a distance away from the center of the battlefield, the center of the battlefield had been very chaotic with all kinds of strong noises. In addition, due to the current darkness, the old wizard had not been discovered by the camp. It seemed that their use of large-scale weapons to attack would have a very good effect.

But what they could never have imagined was that a stranger they didn't know at all, a stranger who was in a tent in a distant camp, had already noticed their unusual movements.

"Haha, these barbarians actually brought out that Excellence-level skull? Are they planning to use the soul-breaking light of the high-risk exotic beasts to kill people? If they really do that, the difficulty of this instance will be upgraded. I can't just ignore it."

Wang Zhifan, who had already planned to spend this dungeon in the current camp, immediately activated his time and space ability to target the old wizard from a distance, but the old wizard's power was much weaker than his, and he had no idea what was happening.

So on the barbarian side, as the old wizard on the back of the alien beast chanted the spell more and more vigorously, the empty eye sockets of the skull of the high-risk alien beast rising into the night sky gradually produced a golden light.

The light was very weak at first, but with the old wizard's continued support, it grew rapidly and became as bright as a burning flame.

After the light lasted for two seconds, the old wizard shouted suddenly, and two golden rays of light were emitted radially, covering most of the enemies in the target area.

"victory!"

"victory!"

……

Although the golden light lasted only for a moment, the barbarians who witnessed this miracle of their tribe became even more fanatical, as if they had seen the enemies being killed in an instant. Only the barbarian leader with red lines on his face was the first to discover something was wrong. He used his outstanding night vision to confirm that all the outsiders attacked by the golden light were alive and well, with no signs of injury at all, let alone large-scale deaths.

"Old wizard! None of the outsiders died!"

He immediately shouted a reminder to the old barbarian who was working hard on the back of the alien beast, causing the old barbarian who was obsessed with outputting extraordinary power to suddenly open his eyes and look in the direction where he was controlling the alien beast's skull to attack, confirming that his previous efforts were completely in vain.

"Impossible! How come those outsiders are all alive?!"

The old wizard also found it difficult to understand what had gone wrong. The entire process of him controlling the skull of the alien beast to launch a soul-breaking attack was clearly going smoothly, and the direction of the golden light was also correct. There was no reason for the current result to occur.

At this moment when he was a little panicked, the high-risk beast skull floating in the night sky fell down because it lost its support, but the sharp-eyed and quick-handed barbarian leader rushed over and grabbed it with both hands, preventing the great treasure of the barbarian camp from falling to the ground and being broken.

"Old wizard, something must have gone wrong!"

The barbarian leader then held the skull of the strange beast, which was bigger than a water tank, in both hands and said to the old barbarian who looked doubtful. At the same time, he walked forward and wanted to put the camp's treasure in his hand back on the back of the strange beast on which the old barbarian was sitting.

During this process, the eye socket of the strange beast's skull happened to be slightly tilted towards the front of the barbarian leader. Just as he was holding the skull and passing by the old barbarian, something strange happened. Two golden lights suddenly shot out from the eye sockets of the strange beast's skull, covering the old barbarian and the strange beast mount he was sitting on!

pat!

In an instant, the old wizard who had endured the attack of the soul-breaking golden light fell to the ground. His skinny body tilted and he fell to the ground below the strange beast, with his head touching the ground first.

Bang!
Almost at the same time as him, a large strange beast that looked a bit like a cow also fell to the ground like mud, making a loud noise.

"Old wizard! No!!!"

At this moment, the barbarian leader who was holding the skull of the strange beast in both hands was completely shocked. He didn't understand why the skull in his hands suddenly emitted golden light. Could it be that the old wizard, after suffering a disadvantage in the first battle, showed his power again and used himself as material to verify the problem?
Such a series of accidents immediately made the barbarians panic.

They hurried forward to check on the old barbarian who had fallen to the ground and confirmed that he had passed away. The strange beast he was riding was also dead, proving that the power of their tribe's treasure was as terrifying as the legend said, but for some reason the attack was only effective against their own people.

"Warriors, follow me and charge! Revenge for the old wizard!"

Although the barbarian leader did not understand the real reason for these abnormalities at the moment, he knew very well that they could not go back to see their tribesmen in shame with nothing, so he thought quickly and forced all the blame on the enemy, and took the lead in launching a charge.

The barbarian troops quickly fought with the approaching foreign soldiers, and cooperated with the reorganized group of strange beasts to launch a real melee, leaving the old wizard's gradually cold body lying there.

Wang Zhifan, who was in a tent in the camp in the distance, saw all this and nodded secretly.

As the overall operator, he has always favored the outsiders, but given the current situation, it is time to make the battle fairer.

After all, the barbarians have already suffered a great setback, and it would be unreasonable if the outsiders and players could not resist.

Just now, the old barbarian wizard was killed instantly by the golden light of the strange beast's skull. In fact, he activated the power of the law of time and moved the time where the golden light of the strange beast's skull was located forward.

That is to say, the golden light that the old barbarian wizard initially emitted using the skull of the strange beast was actually shot past. The so-called golden light covering the enemy was just an illusion from the perspective of the barbarians.

When the barbarian leader held the fallen skull of the strange beast in his hand, the golden light returned to the time when it was just emitted under the control of Wang Zhifan, and killed the old wizard who created them instantly.

The reason why Wang Zhifan made it so complicated was actually just to practice the application of the law of time. Otherwise, he would have many ways to achieve his obstruction purpose.

From this we can also see how boring this copy is for him. Not only are the NPCs in it unable to resist his power, but they don't even realize that he is the real mastermind until their death, and they are still fighting frantically with who they think are the enemies.

When Wang Zhifan stopped intervening in the battle and allowed the players and camp guards to fight the barbarians, he sensed that something was happening around the old wizard's body.

Five stealthy figures came down from a nearby mountain and first watched the chaotic battle. Then someone saw the bodies of the old wizard and the strange beast, and discovered the skull of the strange beast overturned on the ground.

"Holy shit! Look! What is this! An Excellence-level marker?! We sent it!"

The player, who was in his thirties and had a stocky physique and a face full of flesh, was extremely excited and immediately shared this great discovery with his four friends.

If other players see them, they will know that they are the five robber players who wanted to rob everyone at the beginning of this instance.

It can be seen that these five people later successfully escaped from the siege of the angry group of players and possessed excellent survivability.

"It's an excellent item, not very suitable for us, but it would be great if we could sell it for 1 billion."

A fellow gunner came over to confirm the description of the strange beast skull and said with the same excitement.

"This thing is not a conventional piece of equipment, so it will definitely not sell for 1 billion. But even if it only sells for 100 million or even tens of millions, it will still be a huge profit!"

The other gunman was calmer, but he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.

After everyone quickly appreciated the huge unexpected find, the leader with a face full of flesh took the skull of the strange beast and stored it in his personal space.

They saw with their own eyes that a skull larger than a water tank disappeared instantly after the leader touched it, but the man's face suddenly changed and he shouted:
"Oh my god! How come that thing suddenly disappeared? It just disappeared!"

The man with a face full of flesh was so shocked that he almost jumped up, but he found himself surrounded by unfriendly looks from his four companions, who thought he was pretending and wanted to keep the treasure he had just obtained for himself.

"Why are you looking at me?! That thing just suddenly disappeared! It's not in my space!"

The man then loudly defended himself, but soon he found that nothing he said seemed to work. (End of this chapter)
