How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

Roar.

He just accidentally got a little closer, and his breath was discovered by the monster not far away. The roar he made when he was awakened from his sleep also alarmed other monsters.

Poisonous Blood Dwarf [Elite]: Level 30, HP 3000/3000

The name that appeared in an instant confirmed my guess, but also made me want to complain. A good roommate like you who disturbs others' sleep will definitely not survive more than a week in a university dormitory.

Of course, whether I can survive now is still a very profound question.

I heard a sound of breaking air, and without hesitation I used Shadow Strike at the dwarf demon closest to me. My figure disappeared, and the attacks of the two monsters missed.

The moment my body hit the ground, I used the instant step again to get four or five yards away from the dwarf who was my target.

Although doing this prevents Shadow Strike from dealing damage, it completely avoids entering combat. This was one of the techniques used by thieves in my previous life, and for me this technique also means more room to escape.

He quickly changed back to the profession of Dark Word Mage, resisted the aura and pushed away the dwarf demons behind him, and flashed towards the stairs again.

Three consecutive displacements and controls put more than ten yards between myself and the monsters. If the third template of the magic disguise can create a warrior, I think I can become a well-deserved escape master.

Da da da.

My footsteps made a dull sound as they stepped on the spiral staircase. To be on the safe side, I even ran all the way back to the first floor without looking back.

But before I could lean against the wall next to the stairs to catch my breath, I heard another sharp scream behind me.

"Hey, don't go too far!" I widened my eyes and looked at the poisonous blood dwarfs running down the stairs with their fangs and claws bared. I didn't hesitate at the moment, "Damn it, you forced me to do this, watch me close the door and let the dogs out."

The moment the golden magic circle lit up on the dim first floor of the Mage Tower, five figures bathed in holy light emerged from it.

It was Kai and others.

Chapter 145 Mechanical Puppet

Although most of the high-level members in the Holy Light Monastery cannot be dispatched by me for the time being, Claire has authorized me to command the trainee corps in the monastery.

The most direct manifestation is that the team Kai and others are in has signed a special contract with me and can be summoned by me at any time.

Of course, if they are summoned at certain private times, there is no guarantee that special costumes will be unlocked, so in order to avoid overly explosive scenes from causing adverse physical and mental effects on minors, they still agreed on the conditions with themselves.

As for the rumors that circulated in the Holy Light Hermitage after Claire gave this order, such as that Kai was actually Claire's half-sister, or that Kai was actually the next heir secretly trained by the family, etc., I don't really care about them.

Because the only thing I want to do now is to teach these monsters who have gone too far a profound lesson.

"You are strengthened, come on, bite them."

"bite?"

Kai and the others, who had just been summoned and had not yet understood what was going on, inexplicably paid attention to a certain verb in the words.

I was stunned for a moment, then I realized that my choice of words seemed inappropriate, and quickly put on an aggrieved look.

"Woo woo, these monsters are bullying me."

Even though they still didn't quite understand what was going on, Kai and the others were immediately enraged by Loli's destructive and pitiful attack, and instantly directed their attacks towards the group of monsters that were chasing them.

The poisonous-blood dwarves on the spiral staircase seemed to have just reacted, and were clearly somewhat afraid of these paladins. However, just as they were about to escape, they were submerged in the holy light that surged in like a tide.

Not even a trace of wailing was left.

I was sweating profusely as I watched this, and suddenly I was glad that these guys were lolita complexes, otherwise I would have been blasted into a mosaic that night.

Although both have the suffix of elite, elite-level NPCs are not something that monsters can challenge. Powerful elite NPCs can even fight against leader-level monsters. This is why the poisonous-blood dwarf has no resistance in front of Kai and others.

After easily defeating the enemy, Shim, who didn't even have time to cast a blessing, was stunned for a moment, but soon her attention turned elsewhere.

"Don't be afraid, everything is fine, Your Highness. We have destroyed these monsters." Shim stretched out his hands as if he wanted to hug me. With his gentle smile and pretty face, he looked like a healing priest sister.

However, I had not forgotten what this guy had done a few days ago, so I quickly stepped back and said, "Don't come over here, you ex-con."

Shim's face fell immediately, he shrank to one side and drew circles, "Didn't we agree that Loli only has seven seconds of memory?"

You think I'm a fish, idiot?

Bili beside him glanced at Shim complacently, "Your Highness, don't pay attention to this pervert. He wants to take credit for nothing. He deserves it."

But before she came over, I had already drawn a clear line between us, "Don't come over here either. Don't think I don't know that you two are in cahoots."

Then Billy also ran to join Shim, "They haven't done anything yet, it's all your fault for alerting them."

What I regret is not taking action sooner.

Bemira and Daisy looked at the two of them sympathetically, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Under our protection, no one can hurt you."

"The guy who stole the property has no right to say such things."

Someone didn't appreciate it at all and pointed to the corner next to him.

The two paladins immediately stood over with their heads drooping, intending to play mahjong with the two priests, even though they had no idea what mahjong was.

In the end, it was Kai, the captain, who saved his team members. "I'm sorry for being rude to you before, but please believe that they have no ill intentions. Your Highness' safety is always our first consideration."

"And it seems that His Highness has important matters to deal with. If we delay for such a small matter, I'm afraid it would not be appropriate."

This is no small matter at all. It is clearly a major matter concerning whether one can enjoy the free food and accommodation service of the National Hotel for a minimum of three years.

I snorted, but thinking that I did have things to do, I stopped arguing and said, "Forget it, just follow me."

The group of lolita lovers immediately followed him happily as if they had received approval, "Your Highness, don't walk too fast, it would be terrible if there is any danger."

"You are the only ones in danger."

I rolled my eyes at the front, but I heard whispers from the back.

"Your Highness used to be so well-behaved and sensible. Cry."

"There's nothing we can do. Children will always reach a rebellious stage."

"I understand. It's like wearing a bear cub and then suddenly changing to blue and white stripes. This is the inevitable path of life."

What a terrible analogy that is. And what's wrong with your motherly tone? Don't think this can excuse your crimes.

The reason Kai and the others stayed behind was just to guard against possible accidents, although I think the possibility is low. After all, the five elite dwarves are strong to begin with, and even if the teams from the big guilds come, they won't get into any trouble. This is completely enough for the next levels.

At least for now, without going too deep into it, it should be relatively safe.

However, just as he was thinking this and opened the hall on the third floor leading to the inner room, he was slapped in the face.

As soon as I opened the door, I caught a dazzling light out of the corner of my eye. Years of being alert to thieves touching my butt made me subconsciously rush forward.

I managed to dodge it, but Bemira behind me was not so lucky. Even with the armor's cushioning, he was still knocked back several steps.

"Your Highness?"

"Bemira!"

A chaotic sound rang out, and Kai and Daisy looked serious and rushed to my side, setting up defenses.

The two priests went to help the injured Bemira up and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Ugh..." Bemira made a painful sound, which scared Shim so much that he quickly prepared a healing spell. Even I couldn't help but cast a worried look at her.

Bemira's eyes were dull, and she muttered to herself, "I...I actually missed such a beautiful scenery."

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

When I realized what was happening, my face turned red instantly and I quickly pulled up the hem of my skirt to block the vague glances from people around me.

Shim directly used the healing spell on the face of this unruly guy.

Even the attacking enemy seemed unable to bear watching it, or was unwilling to be left alone for a long time, and spoke mechanically without any emotion.

"Intruder detected, execution of elimination plan."

It was only then that I could clearly see the appearance of the so-called attacker.

The golden streamlined fuselage and the mixed power of steam and energy crystals make the entire steel shell look like a combination of punk and medieval images. The mechanical eyes embedded with red gems flash with a cold light.

Agent Mechanical Puppet [Boss]: Level 40, 100% complete

Chapter 146 Special Defense Mechanism

Level 40 boss?

Could this be a mechanical puppet created by Loblanche? But why didn't the post explain why this would happen? And no matter how you look at it, this monster is not something that an ordinary team of players can deal with.

Without giving me time to think, the mechanical puppet launched another attack, but this time it used physical means of attack. The huge mechanical arm turned into a cannonball and bombarded me rapidly.

Kai rushed to the front first and set up a huge shield to block the first line of defense. Daisy was not far behind either.

The dazzling blessing was bestowed upon the two of them, instantly increasing their defenses a lot.

And then, the attack had already arrived.

The mechanical arm suddenly hit Kai's shield, but Kai did not choose to resist. Instead, he cleverly deflected the shield and called out to the back, "Daisy."

"receive."

Daisy responded and used the shield in her hand to block the deflected attack. The impact of the mechanical arm then completely disappeared and fell back into the puppet's hand.

I was a little surprised when I read on, this kind of defense was also mentioned in the strategy post of the previous life. Usually the main tank with higher defense would take most of the damage, and the remaining damage would be transferred to other tanks to ensure health safety, but it can only be applied to this type of impact attack.

I didn't expect that Kai and others also knew this skill, or that they actually learned this skill from NPCs?

As an existence that can make even the command-level BOSS suffer, the whole team cooperates very well. As soon as the two were injured, Shim's healing power instantly fell on them. At the same time, Bili's staff also lit up with a dazzling light.

Taking advantage of the gap in the attack, Kai and Daisy quickly approached the mechanical puppet.

The puppet that was close to him shook its arm and fell down with a bang. The power of the blow actually reduced Kai's health to one-fifth in one go. At the same time, the attack from the other arm came at the same time. Not only the damage, but the frequency of the attack was also not to be underestimated.

Kai, who suffered two consecutive injuries the moment he came into contact, did not dare to be careless and immediately asked Daisy behind him to help resist for a moment.

Such powerful attacks and offensives seemed to be too much for even the elite-level NPCs to handle. Fortunately, Bemira, who had recovered later, also joined the battle, and they were able to barely cope with it.

Even though my damage was only negligible compared to Kai and the others, I still tried my best to help. However, I soon discovered that something was wrong.

The integrity of the mechanical puppet dropped very slowly. Although it was a level 40 boss, this situation should not have happened. After all, the NPCs here were all level 30 elites, and the strength of their attacks was obviously enough.

However, according to his own estimation, the fierce attacks of Kai and others during this period of time could obviously knock down at least 20% of the integrity, but now it can only knock down less than half of the damage.

I frowned and observed carefully, and found that most of the damage on the opponent was swallowed up by a blue light when it touched the surface of the body. At the same time, the integrity of the mechanical puppet was not damaged at all.

This includes magic damage from Bili, Shim and me, as well as physical damage from Kai and other paladins. It is impossible to be as simple as being immune to only one type of damage. What is going on?

Just when I was puzzled, Bemira and Daisy took advantage of Kai's defensive gap and summoned the Hammer of Judgment at the same time. However, only the first attack they made did any real damage.

But in the next moment, the Holy Light Judgment cast by Bili fell on the mechanical puppet, and actually knocked down some of its integrity.

Two consecutive damages took effect. Given the previous situation, it couldn't be a coincidence. Could it be that...

I had a general idea in mind, and after observing for a while, I fully confirmed it. "Kai, you can attack while defending. You don't need to use special skills, just use your weapons to swing."

"Billy, Shim, cast your magic after Kai and the others attack."

The body of the mechanical puppet should be able to sense damage, and will automatically switch to defense mode after being damaged, absorbing and becoming immune to subsequent damage of the same type. The blue light is the sign that the absorption has started.

Because the mechanical puppets have high attack and attack frequency, Kai and the others are defending as much as possible, and only occasionally launch attacks during their rotations, so most of the time it is Bili and Shim who are casting magic to output damage.

This characteristic of the mechanical puppet determines that most of the output is wasted, leading to the situation that occurred before.

After listening to my simple explanation, Kai and the others finally understood and took turns using the knight swords in their hands to leave white marks on the body of the mechanical puppet, so that Bili and Shim's magic could cause real damage after hitting the opponent.

Under such a rapid attack, the integrity of the mechanical puppet dropped rapidly like water. In less than ten minutes, 70% of it was destroyed.

The moment the integrity dropped below 30%, the rubies that served as the mechanical puppet's eyes dimmed like an extinguished flame.

At the same time, the entire huge body was broken into several pieces, announcing its death, and a bright light was reflected under its body.

After Kai and the others signed a contract with him, they became player collaborators. Therefore, even though they were the main source of output and were counted as being killed by NPCs, monsters could still drop equipment and items.

The things dropped by a level 40 boss must be very good.

My eyes lit up and I quickly stepped forward to dig apart the scattered mechanical fragments. However, to my surprise, only a few items were revealed.

One was a ring, another was a crystal that looked like an energy crystal, and the other was three broken gems.

"Is it because I'm unlucky or is this boss too stingy..."

I couldn't help but be speechless. After thinking about it, I decided to blame it on the group of people behind me who definitely didn't wash their hands before going out.

But after using the All-Seeing Eye of the Eternal Library to identify the properties of the ring, most of the resentment in my heart disappeared immediately.
