#2418 - Reluctantly
Especially the leaders of the team!
Their strength was the most formidable. All the skeletal tomb guardians that rushed towards them were often completely shattered into dust before they could even get close, not even having time to launch any attacks.
It was like sending an endless stream of bones to a bone-crushing machine to die.
Fang Heng and the others mingled within the tomb's skeletal guardian horde and slowly stopped moving. The three of them quickly communicated using their mental strength.
Tan Shuo: "Can you see clearly?"
Li Shaoqiang: "Don't even mention it, I can't see anything."
Fang Heng nodded in agreement.
In this state, the scene before them was like being covered by a thin layer of mosaic. The further away they were, the clearer they could see, but the closer they got, the more blurred it became.
Forget about recognizing the faces of the intruders, it was difficult to even distinguish their body shapes.
Tan Shuo: "Hmm... these people should be the intruders, right? In any case, let's complete the mission first. How about we find a way to take them down?"
Li Shaoqiang: "With this body? Isn't that a bit too much to ask?"
Fang Heng communicated using mental strength: "It is indeed a bit difficult, but the mission doesn't require a specific strength level for the intruders we need to kill. Let's get a little closer, observe them, and target the weaker ones."
"Okay."
Li Shaoqiang and the other nodded in agreement, heading towards the intruder team.
Under the influence of the black mist, most of the skeletal tomb guardians rushing towards the intruder team were unable to withstand the team's counterattacks and were shattered to death.
However, some individuals would occasionally stray from the intruder team.
Li Shaoqiang: "Why is their formation so strangely scattered?"
Tan Shuo observed for a moment and said, "It seems that the black mist is targeting them. Being in the black mist greatly affects their vision and perception, making it easy for them to stray from the main group."
"I understand, so it's our advantage."
The blue light in the eye sockets of Li Shaoqiang's possessed skeleton flickered frequently.
"Go! Take them down, pick the easy targets, let's go together!"
The three of them immediately approached an intruder who had strayed from the main group.
"Huff!"
Damn it! Elite monsters!
The necromancer player realized that the situation was bad as soon as they exchanged blows.
He pushed forward with the bone shield in his hand, originally intending to push the opponent away, but he didn't expect that not only did he not push the opponent away, but he felt like he had crashed into a thick wall, and the force of the impact sent him staggering backwards several steps.
Swoosh! A black bone blade slashed across his eyes.
"Not good!"
The necromancer warrior player's heart skipped a beat and he raised his bone shield again to block.
"Boom!" What terrifying brute strength was that?
The necromancer warrior only felt his left hand, which was gripping the shield tightly, go numb.
Fang Heng once again swung his long blade forward!
"Boom! Boom boom boom!!!"
More than a dozen consecutive strikes landed on the shield, producing rhythmic clanging sounds, and the necromancer warrior player was hammered back again and again.
Fang Heng suddenly felt that this kind of combat mode wasn't bad either.
Anyway, he didn't know many close combat skills himself. In the past, he had always relied on this kind of hammer-swinging attack mode to fight, so it wasn't much different.
It was all about using strength to crush others.
So he quickly became familiar with the rhythm.
The necromancer-type warrior player became more and more alarmed as he fought. His left hand was completely numb! He had no sensation at all!
Seeing his health gradually decreasing, and even the durability of his bone shield about to be exhausted, he suddenly shouted loudly.
"Bone spurs!"
Several thick bone spurs suddenly shot out from the necromancer warrior's body!
Fang Heng had already sensed the attack in advance and tried to dodge.
Unfortunately, the agility of this skeletal body was limited and he couldn't dodge at all!
"Bang! Bang bang!!!!"
Fang Heng frowned.
Several of his ribs were pierced and broken by the bone spurs, and his body was also knocked backwards, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
What the hell!
The necromancer-type warrior player stared at the elite skeleton in front of him as if he had seen a ghost.
The bone spurs had already pierced his bones, so why was he still standing there?
"Bang!"
At the side, taking advantage of the necromancer warrior player's surprise, Li Shaoqiang found an opportunity in the rear and slashed his blade at the back of the player's neck.
"Chih!!!!"
The blue flames surrounding the warrior player rapidly dissipated, and the player quickly turned into a cloud of blue dust and disappeared.
[Hint: The player team repelled 1 intruder. The trial mission will be completed after killing the remaining 11 intruders].
"Well done! Boss Fang!"
Having successfully delivered the final blow, Li Shaoqiang's skeletal skull excitedly waved the blade in his hand.
"Go! Next one!"
After a short battle, Fang Heng had roughly figured things out.
The skeleton inherited his health and strength.
As for the constitution attribute, it wasn't 100% inherited, and agility was weakened to an extremely low level.
It seemed that he could only pick easy targets to complete the mission.
Fang Heng no longer hesitated and began to farm monsters according to the formulated battle plan.
The three of them were all elite players and became familiar after two cooperations. Anyway, they specialized in killing stragglers, and among the stragglers, they specifically targeted the easy targets with weak flames surrounding their bodies.
That was the plan, but these intruders were more difficult to deal with than expected. They often had some unexpected life-saving skills that gave them headaches.
As time passed, Fang Heng and his party, who were trailing around the intruder team, were already able to see the building emerging from the black mist not far away.
The towering and magnificent pyramid building filled Fang Heng's heart with a sense of shock.
Tan Shuo: "It seems that that is Empress Persephone's tomb that the death knight mentioned."
"Yeah, Li Shaoqiang, we need to speed up."
As Fang Heng spoke, he glanced at the game prompt.
[Hint: The trial mission will be completed after killing the remaining 3 intruders].
Only three more left.
Li Shaoqiang: "Okay, I got it."
Seeing that the mission deadline was approaching, everyone had to find some tougher stragglers.
The skeletal tomb guardians themselves weren't strong, and coupled with the fact that the intruders each had their own methods, the team encountered trouble in their haste.
Li Shaoqiang was about to sneak attack an intruder from behind when he didn't expect the intruder to have special attack methods. Several dark shadows suddenly emerged from behind and smashed towards Li Shaoqiang!
"Boom!"
Li Shaoqiang was instantly entangled by a large number of black souls and sent flying backwards!
Crap!
Fang Heng's heart sank.
"Li Shaoqiang!"
What was even more troublesome was that Li Shaoqiang was directly knocked into the intruder team!
In the next moment, Li Shaoqiang was submerged in the intruder team and quickly died from the skills flying in from all directions.
