Chapter 22 Captain of the Corpse Demon
Captain Kos was punched by the Sun Flame Monk and staggered back. Whether intentionally or not, the torch that fell on the deck was stamped out by it, and the cabin suddenly fell into deep darkness.
Basaka and Soma are both humans and do not have the talent of "dark vision". When fighting in a completely dark environment, they have disadvantages in perception and attack rolls. However, the corpse demon opposite is not affected. Under the cover of darkness, Holding the battle ax high and rushing towards him, the situation on the battlefield suddenly reversed!
Due to the lack of light, Gao Fei couldn't clearly see the zombie's attack movements, so he could only control Basaka to set up the wooden stick, and relied on intuition to block the fierce axe. He was left in a state of embarrassment.
At the critical moment, luckily there was Sumo, the Yangyan monk, beside him, who once again came to the rescue in time.
Jiang Feng controlled Somo to activate 4 points of infuriating energy, and activated the Yang Yan Sect's secret martial art "Daylight Barrier". With Somo himself as the center, he opened a golden spherical light shield, illuminating the cabin as bright as day. With changes in environmental lighting, the situation on the battlefield has reversed again.
Corpses born in the dark are naturally photophobic. When exposed to sunlight, they are just like ordinary people in the dark. They have disadvantages in attack rolls and perception checks.
The "Daylight Barrier" is actually the brilliance of the scorching sun that is simulated with true energy. Under the suppression of the light, Captain Kos's original fierce offensive became sluggish and weak.
Gao Fei felt that the defensive pressure was greatly reduced, and cast a grateful glance at Jiang Feng.
Since he couldn't kill the corpse demon, he simply yelled at Captain Kos and successfully activated "Taunt" to stabilize the hatred, so that Jiang Feng's monks could concentrate on dealing damage.
Surrounded by the "Daylight Barrier", the warrior monk Sumo possessed by Jiang Feng was like a golden Buddha. He infused his dagger, fists and kicks with all his energy, regardless of consumption, and attacked with all his strength!
The "Sun Fist" and "Sun Sword", which contain the true energy of the light system. With the blessing of the "Daylight Barrier", the attack roll is based on double dice. On average, Captain Kos will be hit twice out of every three shots, beating the corpse demon repeatedly. He retreated, intending to fight back, but was disturbed by "taunting". After hesitation, he still swung his ax at the berserker.
The fierce battle continued for two more rounds. Basaka received a blow from Captain Kos and was scratched by a claw full of negative energy. He lost a total of 13 HP points. Fortunately, he passed the Fortitude save and resisted the damage caused by negative energy. Curse of Eclipse.
If the fight continues at this pace, the good news is that Captain Cos can be killed in at most two rounds. The bad news is that Basaka's remaining HP may not be able to survive two rounds, and he is guaranteed to fall before Captain Cos.
Gao Fei didn't want to take such a risk. While controlling Basaka to fight, he was also using his brain to find a safer and more efficient tactic than simply acting as a human shield to attract hatred.
Suddenly an idea struck him, and he thought of a good idea. He asked Basaka to put aside the useless stick and rush forward to hit Captain Cos with his shoulder.
According to the rules of the game, initiating a collision is also an attack decision. The greater the strength and size, the easier it is to knock the opponent down.
After Basaka went berserk, his strength attribute of up to 22 finally came into use. Although this bull charge was unable to cause actual damage to the corpse demon, it successfully knocked it to the ground.
When attacking a downed creature, you have an advantage in melee combat and a disadvantage in long range combat.
Berserkers and monks are both melee professions. Knocking the enemy to the ground and then stomping on them only has advantages and no disadvantages.
The moment Captain Cos fell, his battle ax flew out of his hands. He supported the deck with both hands and struggled to get up. During this period, he was first kicked by Jiang Feng, and then Gao Fei seized the opportunity and controlled Barsaka to rush up with a roar. , knocked him to the ground with an elbow, and threw himself onto the street again!
The strategy Gao Fei came up with in a flash of inspiration actually triggered a system prompt.
…
Beginner's Tutorial: Attacks of Opportunity
When an enemy is exposed within your melee range, you can spend a reaction action to make an attack of opportunity.
…
Successfully triggering an attack of opportunity means that you can attack one more time in this round, which is of course a very good thing.
Jiang Feng also received the same system prompt. He couldn't hold back his excitement and shouted to Gao Fei: "Great job! Just hit him like this! Keep pushing down the zombie demon and don't let him get up!"
"No problem! You should work harder and step on him more when you have the opportunity."
"Yeah! It's a pity that Sumo is not wearing high heels..."
Once he enters the seamless tactical loop of "collision" + "attack of opportunity", Captain Kos's fate is already doomed.
In the ensuing battle, the only thing the unlucky corpse demon could do was to sit up repeatedly. After finally getting up, he was elbowed down by the violent barbarian prince. What followed was The Yangyan monk's violent fists and kicks...
After holding on for less than a minute, Captain Cos could no longer get up, and his sinful soul turned into 700 experience points.
After the battle, Gao Fei wiped his sweat and complained.
"I'm not telling you that. The designer of this adventure module is out of his mind! Players who have just passed the prologue only have a wooden stick in their hands. There is no way they can obtain magic weapons, and they don't know that they need to prepare silver weapons. When we get to the boat, we will be stunned if we encounter the corpse demon!"
"Jiang Feng, I really want to thank you today! Fortunately, your monk is so powerful, and the Yang Yan martial arts just restrained the corpse demon. Otherwise, I would have to load the game all over again. Can I treat you to a supper tonight?"
"Okay, okay! Let's go to the employee restaurant on the third floor of the shopping mall to eat!"
“You don’t have to spend money to eat there, so what kind of treat is this?”
"You are such a liar! The most important thing when treating someone is to eat and drink well. Wouldn't it be better if you can enjoy the food without spending money?" Jiang Feng glanced at Gao Fei in anger and amusement, "You are not a rich man, why should you be so formal with your classmates? Just show your kindness."
"You are right, but what does liar mean?"
"It means ha pok pok!"
Jiang Feng studied at D University for three years. His academic performance was average, but he learned the dialect well.
Gao Fei laughed dryly: "Mr. Jiang... let's communicate in Mandarin."
"By the way, although we were not well prepared and some accidents happened, fortunately we still killed the corpse monster in the end." Jiang Feng put away his smile, looking scared, "Gao Fei, if I used the Berserker and found that I couldn't cause any damage to the corpse monster, I would be dumbfounded on the spot and could only be a meat shield in the battle. I definitely couldn't think of the idea of knocking the corpse monster to the ground. I have to say that your brain is smarter than mine!"
"I'm not smart at all!" Gao Fei was embarrassed by her praise, and deliberately pretended to be furious to cover it up, "It wasn't until now that I realized that I made a very low-level mistake!"
"What mistake did you make?"
Ms. Jiang widened her eyes and asked curiously.
