Chapter 202: Chapter202-Extermination! Six Elite Monsters!
But soon, they noticed something was off!
Why was John still standing in place, looking dizzy and unsteady?
Archibald, familiar with monkey wine, quickly deduced that John had drunk heavily to dispel the stiffness debuff.
This meant John might now be affected by a drunkenness debuff!
Sure enough, a glance at John's panel confirmed the presence of a drunkenness debuff!
Archibald's heart sank! Others might not understand the situation, but he knew exactly what was happening!
"What's going on with John?"
Rosalind quickly noticed something was wrong with John as well.
Just a moment ago, visibility had improved, and the monsters were frantically using their skills.
If John had dispelled the freezing effect, he would have moved away immediately.
Why was he now standing there, swaying and looking dizzy?
"John drank to dispel the freezing debuff, and now he's drunk. This causes dizziness and may reduce his movement speed. His speed potion still has a minute left on its cooldown..."
Hearing this, Rosalind's heart also sank!
If this were true, they had a serious problem!
Without the speed buff, John couldn't move away quickly! His HP was already starting to drop; if this continued, he would surely die!
"Cover me!"
Without any hesitation, Rosalind leapt forward as she spoke!
Everyone around her almost screamed in shock!
Good grief, that's a ten-meter-high wall!
You just jumped without a second thought—are you not afraid of death at all?
And how are we supposed to cover you?
Explain before you go, for heaven's sake!
They swallowed their screams, knowing they had friends fighting below.
They had to stay focused!
"Cover them both with everything you've got!"
Archibald gritted his teeth, pouring every ounce of effort into his skills!
Faster! Faster!
The quicker they cast their skills, the less danger John and Rosalind would face!
They couldn't let anything happen to them—absolutely not!
At that moment, everyone was frantically casting skills downward!
As Rosalind jumped, she immediately cast Wind Shield to protect herself!
Using the trajectory of the windblades released by those around her, she floated in mid-air!
The moment she left the protective shield, she couldn't help but frown.
It was unbearably cold! Although the tornadoes had blown the white fog aside, they had also intensified the snowfall!
Many of the small monsters had already curled up on the ground, becoming easy prey.
But they couldn't worry about the small monsters now; they had to focus on the six elite monsters!
Only by doing so could they give their companions a fighting chance!
Fortunately, Rosalind's class was primarily supportive.
After casting various buff enhancements on herself, she quickly moved towards John.
As the Lava Behemoth's magma closed in on John, he suddenly felt a lightness in his body!
Looking again, he saw a 30% speed buff! Lasting 30 seconds!
Instinctively, he glanced towards the wall and saw Rosalind had somehow jumped down, now within skill-casting distance!
But it was so cold that her hands were trembling uncontrollably!
Despite the freezing temperature and the windblade's intensified chill, Rosalind looked as if she might collapse at any moment.
Yet, she continued to cast buffs on John.
Speed buff, berserk buff, damage enhancement buff, healing!
Thorned Rock Serpent!
Without hesitation, John summoned two Thorned Rock Serpents!
One serpent slithered to Rosalind's side, and she stepped onto its head, feeling slightly better.
While some persistent small monsters still tried to approach, the serpent's tail swept them away!
The serpent's speed was much faster than Rosalind's own.
Staying on the ground would have left her vulnerable to the monsters, but atop the serpent, she could assist John more effectively.
John knew these were the best buffs a support player could give.
Though it was only a 30/900 speed boost, it was enough!
Without a moment's hesitation, John moved from his spot and began relentlessly casting skills towards the Lava Behemoth.
Even though he was still somewhat dizzy and the drunken debuff couldn't be dispelled, he felt much better than before.
His speed was faster than he had anticipated!
Countless skills bombarded the Lava Behemoth, giving it no time to react.
John noticed that although his damage to the Lava Behemoth wasn't high, he managed to hold its aggro firmly.
The Lava Behemoth's focus remained locked on him, ignoring everything else!
Good!
John watched as one Lava Behemoth charged directly into the face of the Frost Giant, leading to a head-on collision between the two monsters!
Boom!
In that instant, the explosion of steam created a thick white fog, obscuring everything on the battlefield.
John commanded the Thorned Rock Serpent to quickly flee the scene!
Roar!
Boom!
All anyone could hear were the anguished cries of the monsters and their enraged roars as they took damage.
In that moment, everyone was on edge.
These were emerald-tier elite monsters!
For them, there was no hope of attacking these creatures head-on!
Only someone like John could manage to kite these monsters!
"Let's go!"
Without a second thought, John maneuvered the two Thorned Rock Serpents to swiftly leave the area, taking Rosalind with them.
He had a strong premonition that whatever happened next would be beyond their control.
Sure enough, the ferocious roars erupting from within the thick white fog sent chills down everyone's spine.
The roaring continued for nearly ten minutes, during which all the surrounding smaller monsters were utterly decimated.
A few stragglers in the sky were swiftly dealt with by the group.
When the white fog finally dissipated and the commotion ceased, they saw no trace of the six elite monsters.
The snow-covered ground was littered with black and red stones and heaps of black ashes.
The sight was terrifying, but John and the others noticed their points and experience had increased!
Even with nearly two thousand people sharing the experience, everyone's level had risen significantly!
Some of the lower-level players even leveled up directly!
The experience from these monsters was incredibly abundant!
The remaining airborne monsters were quickly cleared, and John and his team noticed that after this wave of monsters was defeated, no more seemed to be attacking the fortress.
"Did we... survive today's wave?"
Leopold looked at Archibald with a puzzled expression.
Archibald wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling utterly exhausted.
"I'm not sure, but it seems like we're in the clear."
Since midnight last night, monsters had been relentlessly attacking them.
When the six elite monsters appeared, the assault became a torrent!
It was only because John cleverly used the elite monsters' skills to wipe out most of the smaller creatures that they managed to survive.
Otherwise, they could never have resolved this so easily!
John sat on the ground, feeling worn out.
"Combat teams, escort the logistics teams to sort the supplies. Be careful, and return immediately if you notice anything unusual."
