How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

The four teams started working one after another and cleared out the Evil Tooth Tribe in their respective locations.

……

Crescent Moon chanted a short spell, erected a solid barrier from a distance, and promptly blocked the BOSS's burst attack for a low-health warrior in the front row, and then cast an attack spell.

The sharp stone pillars protruded, killing the last of the Evil Tooth Warrior who was led into the tunnel.

The remaining leader, Chief Evil Tooth, was also surrounded by many front-row leaders and was destined to not cause much trouble.

However, this is not what Yueyawanwan is concerned about.

After drinking the magic recovery potion, she looked into the distance, toward the tunnel in the distance.

After the numerous magic attacks, a large number of piled rat corpses were left behind, but the magical thing was that these rat corpses gradually merged into the soil nearby instead of refreshing as usual.

Because it happened silently, she didn't notice the difference until she had cleared out what was now the third tribe the team had encountered.

Thinking about the sudden poisoning effect on her body, Yueya Wanwan always felt that there seemed to be a vague connection between the two.

……

Although the four teams dealt with the rat tide quickly thanks to the terrain advantage of the tunnel, the problem was not that the monsters were difficult to deal with.

Rather, it’s because the tunnels built underground by these evil-toothed rat people are completely irregular.

Even with my instructions, it still takes fifteen or sixteen minutes to travel between different tribes.

Everyone was very skeptical. Without my guidance, it would take them half an hour to find any of the routes leading to different tribes, even with their modeling skills.

All in all, it took more than two hours just to stay in the tunnel.

When they thought of that outcome, everyone in Rose Heart couldn't help but feel ashamed.

This was actually designed by a certain initiator.

Even if you choose the correct "route" of the underground tunnel, you still have to spend some time exploring it, killing monsters or causing damage to them to obtain sufficient energy benefits.

Whether or not the task can be completed, it will be a win for someone.

Although someone is still working hard on her design.

Fortunately, this is just as tiring as going to school, but there will always be the final bell for the end of school.

"Fourteen, fifteen, done and done."

It took an hour and a half for all teams to clear out all the tribes around the altar.

Only then did I feel relieved, and I left the tunnel and returned to the surface with the equally relieved members of Rose Heart. At the same time, I ordered the other teams to gather on the high ground in front of the altar.

Chapter 167: A Different Final Battle (I)

Taking advantage of the view from the high ground, I could see the scene of the altar in front of me, and then I thought about my actions of dealing with the surrounding tribes first.

Not only everyone in Rose Heart including Dolan, but even the little guys understood the meaning of my actions.

"Fifteen times a thousand, plus the rats here."

"Sister, there are more than 18,000 of them!"

"Tsk, this is not that difficult. Suppose there are 3,000 mice here, and the total number of their legs equals 8,000. What is the probability of randomly picking four mice that have a total of 12 legs? Please give an answer to one decimal place."

"There are 1000 two-legged ones. The four-legged ones are the Evil Tooth Cavalry? That's 2000. The result of the draw is a combination of 2 plus 2..."

"It's only 14.8%. Do you think this alone can stump Xiao Qian and me?"

Then the three of them were wiped out by Cecilia's questions.

"Then do you know which author has written a novel based on the real-life prototype of the Revenge Rat Man?"

"So what's the answer?"

Out of curiosity, even I couldn't help but ask.

"There is no writer, because the Rextooth Rat-Man has no real prototype."

"..."

The people around did not pay attention to the nonsensical conversation of these little guys, although they knew that if something unexpected happened to the giant bell on the altar, it would summon all the evil-toothed ratmen from the fifteen surrounding tribes, making the battle extremely difficult.

But they still feel that this is not enough to explain all the problems.

Among them was Yueya Wanwan, who thought of her previous discovery in the tunnel and couldn't help but ask about her doubts.

"Yes, remember when I was in the tunnel before, I asked you to use the advanced poison resistance potion, because the poisoning effect that appeared was related to this terrain."

"The more monsters that die on the terrain, the higher the damage of the poison will be after entering the battle."

"But the ratmen in the tribe all died in the underground tunnels, so of course only the underground layer is counted. Do you think the poisoning effect becomes much weaker after leaving the tunnels?"

Duolan was silent for a moment. "But no matter how strong the poisoning effect is, it can be resisted with high-level poison resistance medicine."

Her meaning was very clear. Rose Heart was not short of supplies. If that was the case, why did they have to specifically lure the monsters into the underground tunnel to deal with them, and even waste so much time going around in circles there?

"No, that would be like going back the same way. And didn't you notice that the speed of the rat-killing wave was particularly fast?"

"You mean, this poisoning effect will also work on monsters?"

"To be precise, even the boss can do it."

After getting the definite answer from me, Duolan became even more confused, or rather, the same was true for everyone else.

"Ann, isn't this a good thing?"

Even Cecilia, who never had any expression on her face, had a look of curiosity in her eyes.

I don't understand why I would give up such an advantage.

After all, no matter how you think about it, anyone can tell the difference between high-level poison resistance potions and collective poisoning and health loss of monsters including the BOSS.

But this kind of thing is not as simple as it seems. Some guilds thought so before, but they were also wiped out.

"I'll explain it to you later. Just trust me. Now you can attack the monster below."

I shrugged and smiled.

Such behavior of keeping people in suspense is bound to bring about a vicious "curse".

"Honestly, I want to beat you up."

"I wish An An gets a zero on the final exam."

"That is, I wish you would get double the homework during winter break."

“Eat carrots every day!”

“No dessert every day.”

Please don't bring any personal opinions to the latter two.

No matter what, the mission had to be completed, not to mention that they had already spent nearly three hours in there.

Apart from those small and medium-sized wartime missions, large or extra-large missions are special and unique, which means that after completion they will no longer appear in the Military Affairs Office's task list.

However, if it is not completed.

Even if you fail in the final stage the first time, when you enter the second time, the BOSS and monster groups that you cleared previously will be refreshed immediately.

This is the mechanism behind the wartime missions.

Although the atmosphere allows players to fully immerse themselves in this immersive war, the occasional mechanisms that jump out of the framework still make people realize that this is just a world of data.

Similar to the Imperial Epic, the Rose Heart also quickly cleared out the outermost Evil-Tooth Ratmen with lightning speed at the beginning, and then reorganized the formation and went straight in.

But what is different from the former is that with my reminder, Dolan and others discovered several weak points in the defense under these altars.

They were divided into three teams and rushed into the altar before the evil-toothed ratmen gathered into a rat tide. They set up defense lines at three different locations.

With the advantage brought by the high ground, like a sponge, the damage borne by the front row on each side of the impact was reduced a lot, and the possibility of accidents was greatly reduced.

Although there will be corresponding gaps among the three teams, there are still many local methods within the team, especially since there are many members of the Fourth Elite Group.

Including Crescent Moon, they cast earth magic including sinkhole, giant stone, barrier magic, etc., which slightly changed the terrain around the altar and filled the gap well.

However, no matter whether it is the Empire Epic's approach or the Rose Heart's dispersed combat method, there is a most critical problem that needs to be solved -

The Reaper of the Reapers, angered by the invaders, ordered all the ordinary Reaper of the Reapers around him to jump into the giant pit, then raised his staff and pointed it at the people on the Rose Heart side.

A grayish-white light appeared.

However, the next moment, an invisible field as black as ink spread out and enveloped its body even faster, completely dispersing the condensed elements.

Even after the first transformation, the Dark Whisper Mage does not have such a 100% silence ability, but the skill [Dark Whisper Field] of the Dark Whisperer suit on him can do it.

This kind of continuous silence is different from the one-time negative effect of Shadow Mage, Shadow Priest or Warlock.

Just like the principle of calculus, the accumulation of infinite possibilities will eventually become a complete inevitability.

After seeing the silence mark above the head of the Eviltooth Prophet, I knew that my mission had been completed and decisively removed the skill effect.

Although he had moved away in advance, the 30-yard range would eventually cover some members of Rose Heart.

This set of skills is undoubtedly a magical skill when fighting alone, but if it is used in a group, it is very likely to harm the team, not to mention that you don’t have to worry about it later.

"Mu Qing, Qinghua."

Dolan shouted in the channel, and immediately more than a dozen figures rushed out from the defense circle. After I withdrew the secret language field, they launched a charge and trapped the Eviltooth Prophet, whose skills were interrupted, firmly in the middle.

Chapter 168: A Different Final Battle (Part 2)

Even though it cannot be compared with the elites of the Empire's epic, the gap is actually not that big. What's more, the attributes of the Evil Tooth Prophet cannot be compared with those top leaders.

In addition, the Rose Heart's team-based combat format effectively alleviated the pressure of fighting the rat tide, allowing more specialized priests to be deployed to mainly treat core MTs such as Qinghua and Mu Qing.

Moreover, the gap left in the middle is also conducive to multi-angle defense in the front row, giving more space for local magicians and thieves to play and mutual cooperation between various defense circles.

Apart from the dozen or so front-row players who attracted the Eviltooth Prophet, other players did not hesitate to use their output, and frequently used advanced skills to eliminate the oncoming rat tide outside the defense circle.

There are also traces of palace-level magic among them.

"The will of the Earth Goddess is declaring that the ignorant will be given the price of death in order to engrave an eternal stone tablet..."

After tearing up the magic script and chanting an obscure spell.

The crescent-shaped staff radiated enormous energy.

The surging undercurrent of earth element turned into a large area of ​​quicksand terrain outside the altar. A rat tide formed in the center, and in a flash it swallowed up hundreds of evil-toothed ratmen, completely burying them in this "giant mouth" that looked like the open mouth of an ancient underground beast.

Not only that, but after that it continued to draw the surrounding monsters in.

Quicksand of Death.

The power of the palace magic learned from the ancient city of Marina is self-evident.

There are more than a dozen mages in the team who have learned the temple magic. Although their performance is not as good as before, they are still worthy of the title of temple level and they made a remarkable impact in the middle of the rat tide.

Magic was flying and arrows were raining down.

The clanging of weapons, mixed with the screams of monsters, created a fierce sonata on the devastated land.

In thirty-seven minutes, all the rats were cleared out.

Although it takes longer than the Imperial Epic, if the former does not have the poisoning effect attached to the terrain to assist, the time may be longer than that of the Rose Heart.

And judging from the pressure on both battlefields, the latter seems to have it easier.

This is the charm of the era.

The extremely high degree of freedom means that there are thousands of possibilities. Sometimes, reasonable tactical methods can not only make up for the gap in strength, but even have a surpassing effect.

After the rat tide was cleared, Rose Heart's output focus immediately shifted to the Eviltooth Prophet.

Being double-teamed in the front row, they were already unable to pose much threat, and now without the fierce offensive of the hordes of Reaper Teeth Clan, the resistance of the Reaper Teeth Prophet seemed even weaker.

Moreover, if the leaders of the same level are compared to warriors, the health of the Revenge Prophet is only 400,000, which is equivalent to a fragile magic profession.

In just over twenty minutes, the last bit of the Eviltooth Prophet's health was gone.

The obese body deflated like a deflated ball.

Soon, everyone in Rose Heart understood why the leader's health was so low—

A familiar but unfamiliar scene reappeared, as dark arms tore open the skin of the Evil Tooth Prophet, revealing a huge demonic figure.

This bloody scene not only scared many girls in Rose Heart, but even Yun Xian, who was in the underage mode, quickly reached out to cover the eyes of her younger sister, and also closed her own eyes to avoid having nightmares at night.
