Chapter 551: The unplayable lord system
Seeing these announcement banners, Zong Shen's face suddenly darkened.
He couldn't help but cursed loudly.
"The ridiculous lord system is too much to play with!"
"It's so shameless!"
"Why should we ban the frost magic gems that are used by labor and management for their own purposes?"
He raised his neck and let out an angry roar.
But there was no response.
No wonder he has been feeling a little uneasy today.
As he expected, the lord system made targeted adjustments to the Balrog boss.
After all, there was no adjustment yesterday, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be an adjustment today.
Yesterday, he killed the boss very quickly. It only took him a few hours to kill the boss.
At that time, none of the Balrog bosses in other areas had been eliminated.
Therefore, it is not convenient to make overall adjustments.
But today is different. Now is the time for the Balrog boss to be reset and refreshed.
Just enough to make adjustments.
After Zong Shen finished cursing, he lowered his head again.
Start thinking seriously about countermeasures.
Today's adjustment means that I cannot use frost magic gems or water magic gems.
Use its conflicting magical elemental properties to deal with the Balrog boss.
This means that he can only do what everyone else does, mobilize long-range warriors, and gradually wear away the boss's health through high-intensity continuous attacks.
No longer has the ability to instantly kill the Balrog boss.
This made Zong Shen extremely unhappy.
But there is nothing we can do.
But if you think about it carefully, this is quite normal.
If the lord system does not interfere with him.
Then Zong Shen can get monopoly points for every Fire Demon boss.
After all the three-headed Balrog bosses are refreshed, he may have gained one to two million points.
This amount of points is too huge, enough for someone to exchange for a lot of supplies.
Obviously beyond the expectations and mastery of the lord system.
However, such adjustments can be regarded as increasing the difficulty in disguise.
I don’t know if there will be additional compensation in the end.
The Balrog boss is 80% immune to frost magic elements and water magic elements.
It's not just the magic gems that are affected.
It also means that frost and water mages, and even related spell scrolls and items, will lose most of their effects.
This situation affects the entire region, and its impact is far-reaching.
If the lord system has no indication.
That’s a bit unreasonable.
Normally, as the difficulty increases, the rewards should also increase.
Specifically, you have to wait until you go to the scene of the Balrog boss battle to see the changes.
Zong Shen actually had some mental preparations in his heart.
I vaguely guessed that the lord system would definitely be adjusted to grasp the progress of the lords in the challenge.
It's just that his previous performance has far exceeded the macro expectations of the lord system.
"Oh, forget it, let's prepare the team."
He sighed, but did not return the gem to the cellar.
Even if the damage is reduced by 80%, the remaining 20% is still considerable.
When necessary, he can consider relying on the gems in his hand to deal the final blow to the boss.
After all, this also comes with extra points and a Balrog Treasure Chest that is comparable to a gold treasure chest as a reward.
When the announcement banner completely disappeared, Zong Shen also adjusted his mentality.
At this time, a shadow mark representing the existence of the Balrog boss appeared in every lord's field of vision.
The Fire Demon boss that was spawned this time was not too far away from Zong Shen’s territory.
Just in the southeast of the territory, 27 kilometers away from here.
It’s much closer than the place where the Balrog boss spawned yesterday.
Zong Shen prepared to ride on the flying tiger and take the scorpion-tailed tiger team to take the lead.
His crusade strategy today is still the same as yesterday.
When he reaches his destination, he will use the [thousand-kilometer level portal (orange)].
Opens a portal connecting territories.
At that time, the warriors will reach their destination directly through the portal.
In fact, even if the frost magic gem loses its effect, Zong Shen still has an advantage.
Because he still has powerful crossbow shooters and mage troops under his command.
Even if he honestly leads the team to output according to the rules of the lord system.
It can also cause considerable damage to the Balrog boss and gain a lot of points from it.
Zong Shen put away the [Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword] and jumped onto Feihu's back nimbly.
"Let's go, Feihu."
He patted the huge tiger's head and pointed to the southeast with his arms.
Feihu then opened his wings and started to flap.
Its huge body lifted into the sky carrying Zong Shen.
Ten manticore tigers followed behind him.
With Feihu as the leader, a cone-shaped aerial battle array was formed.
Quickly flew towards the southeast direction of the territory.
Just a minute after they left the territory, a new banner appeared in the sky.
[Lord of this area: Yuan Yewen 1997913 completed the first attack. Caused 16 points of damage to the Balrog boss, marking the beginning of this boss crusade]
The appearance of this announcement banner means that someone has begun to attack the Balrog boss.
Just three minutes later, Feihu arrived five or six hundred meters away from where the Balrog boss spawned.
Zong Shen instructed it to land here.
At the same time, he took out the portal, selected the space beacon of the territory, and opened the portal.
Immediately, a light door with a height of more than ten meters appeared in front of him.
This portal connects the territory to the space here.
As soon as it was opened, the Wolf Cavalry and Immortal Lancer teams ran out first.
The coyotes and war horses under their crotches neighed.
Followed closely by the long-range warriors and mages in the territory.
This luxurious entrance method is unique in the region.
Only someone from his sect can do such a thing.
Within just a few minutes, the warriors from the territory arrived at the scene of the crusade.
The location here is not far from the village of Citano.
There's probably only a dozen or twenty kilometers left.
Surrounded by an open pasture.
It can be seen that there are several territories.
The Balrog boss stood there, motionless, like a statue.
Under its feet is the broken earth, and the gaps are filled with rolling magma.
It exudes orange-red light.
The rolling heat was released, turning everything within tens of meters around it into a steamer!
It even set fire to nearby grass.
The fire spread across the pasture, sending up billowing smoke.
As the saying goes, set fire to the mountain and sit in jail.
A fire on the mountain, the director fell in love with me.
This kind of grassland fire is extremely dangerous. Please don't imitate the Balrog boss.
The fire spread very quickly.
It is very likely that a fire will affect the entire grassland.
However, when these flames burn to a range of 150 meters near the Balrog boss.
But it encountered inexplicable obstruction.
It was as if there was a circular wall of air standing in it, preventing the flames from spreading.
It should be a restriction method of the lord system.
Otherwise, if the fire continues to spread, it may cause serious impact on the area.
Even so, these fires and magma still caused certain troubles for the lords' offensive.
Just like now.
If everyone wants to attack, they must continue to get closer.
Because the distance of one hundred and fifty meters has exceeded the attack range of ordinary crossbow shooters and mages.
Ordinary arrows and magic bullets cannot hit this far.
Unless using remote projectile.
If you want to output freely, you still need to get within a hundred meters of the Balrog boss.
Zong Shen naturally understood this.
But he was not in a hurry.
The attacks of other lords arriving from the surrounding areas also slowed down.
Although this place is a grassland, the grass within a hundred and fifty meters of the Balrog's body is limited.
It burns so quickly that all combustible materials will be burned out soon.
All the lords are now waiting.
After the grass within the range is burned out, it's time for them to attack.
Zong Shen didn't want to wait, so he took out the [Condensing Water Orb (Purple)].
When he was taking a bath on the island in the middle of the lake yesterday, he used the [Water Storage] skill of the orb to reserve fifty tons of lake water.
Now the appearance of the Balrog boss has caused the prairie fire to hinder the warriors from attacking.
Zong Shen can just use him to extinguish the flames, open up the entrance channel, and let the soldiers enter the output range.
He asked Vereesa, Doris, and Luna to rectify the team where they were.
But he quickly ran towards the place where the flame was burning.
He reached out and threw the [Condensing Water Orb (Purple)] into the air.
Directly choose to release all [Water Storage].
Fifty tons of water is not a small amount of water.
I saw the orb in the sky emitting blue-white light.
It's like a weird faucet, spewing out a curtain of water that's more than ten meters wide.
After it was released all at once, the water curtain washed over the ground like a waterfall.
A torrent-like wave formed in front of Zong Shen.
Rushing unstoppably towards the location of the Balrog boss.
"Crash!"
With the sound of the waves.
This wave washed away and extinguished all the flames along the way.
They are like tides crashing against sea cliffs.
Finally, it swept up the lower body of the Flame Demon boss, which was about twenty meters high.
When the orb fell back into Zong Shen's hand, the wave had already rushed past the Flame Demon boss.
This wave not only extinguished all the flames along its path.
It even cooled down the magma in the cracks near the feet of the Balrog boss in this direction.
A large amount of white water mist rose on the spot.
There was also a "sizzling" sound of steaming.
The water vapor filled the air instantly, like a white gauze covering it.
Hot steam escapes in all directions.
Zong Shen felt like he had entered a sauna.
The number of lords gathered nearby is not too many.
Although the noises he made were huge, they did not cause much confusion among the lords.
After the flames were extinguished as the waves surged in, his soldiers immediately stepped forward.
The grassland beneath my feet had just been burned.
Dark ash remains on the ground.
It was violently washed away by fifty tons of lake water again.
The ground became very muddy, and there was still a lot of standing water.
Even the stagnant water is warm and steaming.
This is a true portrayal of wild fire scenes.
The long-range warriors and mages quickly trotted in.
They stepped on the muddy ground and entered a suitable shooting range.
The mages began to chant and cast spells.
Archers and crossbowmen also loaded their bows and arrows in unison.
Feihu flew to the front with the other scorpion-tailed tigers.
Turn the tubular hollow tail of the bony ring around.
Launched a shot at the Balrog boss.
Zong Shen quickly launched an offensive.
Even if the frost gem fails to work, Zong Shen knows what to do.
The top priority is to take advantage of the Balrog boss's health before it drops below 70%.
Attack whenever possible.
The arrows and crossbow bolts fired by the archers were like a shower, and with the reverberation of the strong strings, they drew black "silk threads" in the air, and finally all shot at the Balrog boss.
A cloud of sparks exploded on its scorching body.
The mages all give priority to singing high-level magic.
In this case, there is no need to hold back.
As long as there is a chance to take action, the most important thing is to output with all your strength.
Zong Shen and the others' offensive was like a rainbow, and the atmosphere quickly reached a fever pitch.
In their direction, all the magma in the ground cracks at the feet of the Balrog boss had solidified.
All turned into black lava stone.
This is also caused by the water just released.
However, the magma is only solidified on the surface, while the bottom is still boiling and hot.
Zong Shen was wearing a battle helmet, so no one could see the change in his expression.
All he can do now is let the soldiers under his command give their best effort.
Next, we have to wait until other lords gather here one after another.
Then consider it based on the specific situation.
Without the Frost Magic Gem as a trump card, it would be unrealistic to quickly kill the Balrog boss' health.
Therefore, this time he also changed his strategy appropriately.
The soldiers were all in their respective positions to attack.
There was mist on the ground, exuding heat.
Wolfriders and Immortal Lancers patrolled the ranks on all sides.
Always be alert to the movements of the Balrog boss and nearby lords.
It is now less than 10 minutes before the Balrog boss is refreshed.
There were only twenty or thirty lords gathered nearby.
As time goes by, more lords will arrive.
Eventually it will reach several thousand digits.
As the saying goes, the elephant killed by many ants is killed.
This round, Zong Shen really plans to rely on other lords to drain the boss's health.
When the soldiers all started to attack.
Zong Shen also took out the [Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword].
Walking on the muddy ash soil, we quickly approached the Balrog boss.
Leaving aside other directions, at least on their side, after being watered by the lake, the temperature near the Balrog boss became much lower.
The residual temperature is not too high, and he can attack at close range.
Just in case, Zong Shen did not let the Wolf Cavalry and the Immortal Lancer take the field.
He didn't want to cause casualties here.
And Zong Shen is still very confident in his own strength.
Not to mention that before, he also fused [Holy Spirit Heart] and [Chaos Core].
Now he has three transformation state skills derived from himself.
They are [Devil State], [Holy Spirit State], and [Light and Dark State].
This means he can transform three times in a row in a short period of time.
The strongest among them is the [Light and Dark State] created by the synthesis of [Holy Spirit's Heart] and [Devil's Heart] through [Chaos Core].
In the [Light and Dark State], he will have the dual power and characteristics of the devil and the Holy Spirit at the same time.
Think about it, Holy Light damage with Chaos properties.
This feature alone is amazing enough.
Therefore Zong Shen is not worried about his own safety.
His agility attribute is not low, no less than that of third- and fourth-level scouts.
It only took a few seconds to cross the distance of more than 100 meters.
The ground is undulating, and the appearance of the Balrog boss has severely damaged the original terrain.
Fortunately, Zong Shen was flexible enough, so this little difficulty was nothing to him.
If he used his current agility to return to Earth and participate in the Olympics.
Definitely a world record that could easily be broken.
But unfortunately, this is a different world of swords and magic, far different from Earth.
He came to the feet of the Balrog boss.
The elemental state of the heels is very distinctive.
Because the scorching fire elements in his body had calmed down a lot due to the wash of the previous wave.
A black stone shell actually condensed on the surface.
The lava turned into a black rock mass that could be settled on.
Zong Shen stood nearby and struck at it with the dragon-slaying heavy sword in his hand.
This sword does not come with any attribute gains, nor does it use any attack skills.
It's an ordinary blow.
Zong Shen's purpose of doing this is also very simple, just to test his own attack strength.
"Crack!"
After a crisp sound, the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword hit the Balrog boss.
Immediately, many fine black volcanic rocks collapsed.
A gap appeared on the body of the Balrog boss.
【-271】
At the same time, there was also a decent amount of damage.
In other words, Zong Shen could easily get 27.1 points by just slashing with his sword.
The output capability of such a single unit is still amazing.
After one blow, Zong Shen stopped.
Because the probing purpose of this sword has been completed.
The 65-point double resistance of the Fire Demon boss is as fragile as paper in front of his attacks.
For Zong Shen, he already knew that the real attack was about to begin.
He first used the [Ring of the Power Demon (Red)] and the accompanying buff skill [Power Amplification].
At the same time, the [Power Demon Possession] state was activated.
[Strength Amplification] can increase his strength attribute by 20%.
This changes his strength from 177 points to 212 points.
And [Power Demon Possession] can double his strength and health.
Let his strength attribute finally become 424 points.
Correspondingly, Zong Shen's health value also changed.
From the initial 1698 points, it became 5866 points after a series of gains!
This health value is almost comparable to a powerful overlord-level beast.
Zong Shen waved his arms, feeling the surging power coming from his body.
His current attributes are almost the strongest except for the three major transformations.
Of course, he has some other buffs that he hasn't used all yet.
For example, [Wang Xuan Zhan Jing], or [Moon God’s Blessing].
He would save these skills for critical moments to use on his soldiers.
Right now, his current state is enough for him to challenge the Balrog boss.
Anyway, at this moment, the Balrog boss will not resist.
It's like a wooden man practicing his skills.
Let Zong Shen do whatever he wants.
There's never been a better time to attack than now!
