Full-time: The Strongest Sniper

Chapter 834 Guild Leaders Drawing Circles in the Corner

As Xiao Nai began his appearance as the main tank (MT), Zhang Jiale and the others were once again amazed by his skills. Every bullet Xiao Nai fired precisely grazed the edge of the boss's shield, hitting the head and feet that weren't completely covered by the shield. His various grenades and other throwing skills also accurately bypassed the shield. To keep the boss in place and make it easier for everyone to deal damage, Xiao Nai even weaved around the boss, effectively locking its movement range in the middle of the map.

But even with such agile movement, Xiao Nai's output was not wasted at all; not a single bullet wasted because it hit the shield.

"Xiao Nai's accuracy is insane no matter when you look at it," Zhang Jiale said with some emotion, because he believed that even Zhou Zekai couldn't achieve such accuracy.

Zhou Zekai's playstyle is primarily aggressive, aiming to maximize damage output. In contrast, Xiao Nai is indeed inferior to Zhou Zekai in terms of short-duration burst damage. This is partly due to their different playstyles; Xiao Nai's style is more fluid and agile, with more varied tactics. He compensates for his lower damage output with faster hand speed. Both players are top-tier in terms of skill, and there's no inherent superiority of one over the other in their playstyles; ultimately, the best playstyle is the one that suits you best.

However, Xiao Nai's level of accuracy is something Zhou Zekai doesn't possess. While Zhou Zekai's accuracy is also very high—his Barrett sniper rifle skills almost always result in headshots—there is a certain difference compared to Xiao Nai.

"I feel like the title of Gun King will change hands after our vice-captain makes his debut," Wei Chen said with great emotion. As someone who is already over thirty years old and whose hand speed has declined considerably, Wei Chen is genuinely envious of Xiao Nai's hand speed.

There's no way around it; with Xiao Nai's hand speed, even if it declines with age in the future, he can still continue on the Glory stage if he wants to. At least his hand speed will never be the reason for his retirement.

As it turned out, Xiao Nai did a pretty good job as the main tank (MT). Because he was a ranged attacker, he didn't have to tank the damage head-on, and he managed to keep the boss under control. Although the boss used several healing skills in succession, Xiao Nai interrupted them all in time. Even when Xiao Nai's skill rotation wasn't fast enough, Ye Xiu would interrupt him. This made the overall strategy for the group go very smoothly.

Of course, with Xiao Nai's output drawing aggro, if he gets aggro, the pressure on the team will suddenly increase a lot. You have to know that in Glory, not all players have the same level of aggro. It's said that whoever has higher aggro will be targeted by the boss. Otherwise, if it's like this, with each player having slightly higher aggro, then you can just choose two ranged classes to switch attacks and make the boss run back and forth.

Normally, once a player loses aggro (OT), regaining aggro requires significantly more aggro. During this re-establishment period, even if the player who lost aggro stops attacking, they can't immediately regain it. It takes time to rebuild aggro, and during this time, the boss attacks more randomly than just the player who lost aggro, even targeting players with low health or those casting spells. This is why losing aggro can easily lead to a wipe.

However, the members of Team Happy are no longer the same as before. They each have their own roles in terms of output and control the rhythm very well. Xiao Nai has a firm grip on the boss's aggro. But even so, looking at the boss's health and his teammates' mana bars, Xiao Nai still felt a bit nervous.

"Everyone, pay attention to the timing of your mana potion usage. An Wenyi, you're under a bit more pressure. Keep an eye on everyone's mana, not just their health," Xiao Nai said. Although everyone brought plenty of various potions, the cooldown time for common potions is quite long. To maximize our endurance in the future, we naturally need to be careful about the timing of potion usage.

Time passed slowly, and forty minutes later, the boss was finally approaching the 10% threshold.

"You all retreat," Xiao Nai said, pretending to prepare to use his Barrett to reduce the boss's health to below 10% from a distance. Because of the ranged attack, even if the boss unleashed a burst of power, everyone would have time to react. Boom!
With a single headshot, boss Sand Leopard's health plummeted to below 10%.

What would happen if the sand leopard went berserk?
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the boss. The boss, who had been knocked backward by the powerful impact of the sniper rifle's shot to the head, suddenly stopped. Then, the boss's eyes turned red, and with a burst of strength, it forcefully pulled itself back from the impact. Next, red patterns appeared all over its body, and it roared at the sky, simultaneously discarding one of its shields and placing both hands on its greatsword.

"Berserker?" Upon seeing this, Zhang Jiale instantly realized the boss's class, as he recognized that the boss had triggered the Berserker's passive skills "Blood Awakening" and "Berserk." One increases attack power when health is low, and the other reduces defense in exchange for attack power and attack speed.

"I'll give it a try." Since the opponent no longer had a shield, Ye Xiu naturally returned to the MT position. Following the same strategy, Ye Xiu and Xiao Nai went up to test the opponent's attack methods. After everyone became familiar with them, they continued to attack, and the boss did indeed act as they expected, with a significant increase in attack power and speed. Faced with the opponent's continuous slashes, even Xiao Nai and Ye Xiu could only dodge repeatedly.

But given their experience, they quickly tested the boss's skills and attack methods. There was nothing more to say, so Xiao Nai called everyone up for the usual Ultraman Justice mob attack.

Although both status skills greatly enhanced the boss's offensive capabilities, the reduction in defense was also a fact. Under the combined attack of the Happy team, the second boss was quickly suppressed.

"Hold your fire!" Ye Xiu shouted immediately when he saw the boss was low on health. The members of Team Happy stopped attacking in perfect unison and began to retreat. While the others managed to retreat, Mo Fan didn't have time. As everyone else retreated, he unleashed two powerful attacks on the boss, delivering the final blow.

Fortunately, after the second boss fell, it only uttered a defeat statement and did nothing else, which relieved everyone. They were glad the boss didn't have a nasty final attack, but they still couldn't help rolling their eyes at Mo Fan for his reckless actions. Mo Fan was quite embarrassed. He knew he had gotten carried away with his damage output, and it was lucky he was unharmed. If the boss had had a final attack, he probably would have died there waiting for the priest to resurrect him.

This caused Mo Fan to show a rare hint of embarrassment.

Despite the awkwardness, with Happy's successful strategy, the system once again broadcast the news of the first kill of the second boss, Sand Leopard, the guardian leader, in the entire God's Realm server.

The world chat was once again filled with astonishment. The guild leaders of various teams continued their daily cursing, then, unable to retaliate, slumped into corners drawing circles in frustration… (End of Chapter)
