Chapter 738: Game Plan

Both steel tridents enlarged, and they repeatedly thrust at Li Yi and his party.

Unending Unmatched and Brother Windcloud Nine took turns standing on the front lines. With their bodies acting as meat shields, they intercepted the tridents and prevented their fellow party members from taking any damage.

During the battle against the Seventh Demon God, the role the main tanks and healers played were exceptionally important. This was due to the more random nature of the Seventh Demon God’s aggro, as such, the main tanks had to take the initiative to intercept his attacks in order to protect the other party members from getting hurt.

Brother Windcloud Nine and Unending Unmatched had both been pinned down by a steel trident. In response, Nirvana Inaction raised his staff and sent out two white rings of light above them, keeping their HP at a steady 50%.

Thud! Thud!

Li Yi raised his bow and fired, and the Seventh Demon God’s body manifested in mid-air.

The moment the steel tridents hit their targets; the Seventh Demon God’s body would become invisible. However, as long as players constantly fired into the air during this phase, there was a high likelihood their attacks would hit him, which would, in turn, shatter his illusion.

Nirvana Inaction alone was enough to cover Unending Unmatched and Brother Windcloud Nine’s HP. As such, Sister Windcloud Nine focused on healing the party instead. Meanwhile, Li Yi and the other DPS began their assault.

Several attacks bombarded the Seventh Demon God, but due to the existence of the Demon God Shield, the players still had not inflicted any damage to the Demon God. However, the percentage written above the Demon God Shield was gradually dropping, and it was already at 221%. All the players needed to do was attack for a little while longer to bring the percentage below 100%.

“Healers, take note! The moment the Demon God Shield drops to 100%, keep spamming your heals, don’t even think of anything else! I’ll pin the blame on you guys if any of our members fall!” roared Li Yi as he fired his bow.

Tch-tch-tch—

As the DPS continued to press the attack, the Demon God Shield protecting the Seventh Demon God began to drop to below 100%.

Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!

The two steel tridents embedded into the ground began to quake simultaneously, sending shockwaves to their surroundings and damaging everyone who was on the altar.

The two healers healed with all their might, casting their strongest group-healing skills without any concern for their mana. There was no need to hold back in this phase, and all the party required was for them to mindlessly cast their heals.

The party’s HP fluctuated wildly. Sometimes, it abruptly dropped from 50% to 2%, and at other times, it gradually increased before suffering a steep plunge again.

It was not a stretch to describe them as swinging back and forth in a limbo of life and death.

After seesawing for about a minute, their HP finally started to stabilize.

The two steel tridents were no longer vibrating, and the Seventh Demon God had gently landed onto the ground. He was now in the process of casting his Dark Magic.

They were now in the second phase!

Tch-psh-bish-tst-pst-brrrr—

Now that Li Yi had been promoted to Territory Rank 1, the potency of his Powered-up Arrows had increased as well. The Powered-up Arrow that was originally able to deal ten-times its damage had now been upgraded again. At present, it could deal sixteen-times its damage.

Even with the Seventh Demon God’s Demon God Shield reducing his damage taken, a single arrow from Li Yi had taken out nearly 40 million of his HP.

The Seventh Demon God launched his Dark Magic at the party. To the healers, the phase where he unleashed his Dark Magic was considered yet another arduous challenge.

In contrast to the incessant shaking of the steel tridents, the Dark Magic needed to be channeled for a certain period before it was able to be released. Furthermore, it had high firepower, and its damage was calculated in term of percentages. Due to this, any player who did not maintain their HP above 90% would be instantly nuked down by the skill regardless of the amount of raw HP they had.

As such, this phase required the healers to ‘burst heal’.

Fortunately, both Nirvana Inaction and Little Elf from the Magical Realm could single-handedly handle the party no matter the position they were located in. With the knowledge that they had two legendary healers backing them, Li Yi and the party did not need to be bogged down by their HP and could focus solely on attacking.

“Brother, why hasn’t the Fluttering Snow Alliance attacked yet?” Brother Windcloud Nine messaged Li Yi.

They had been battling for quite some time now, but the Fluttering Snow Alliance was still nowhere to be seen. The situation was highly suspicious.

“Don’t tell me that they’re too afraid to come.”

Li Yi replied, “They’ll definitely come, it’s just that now’s not the right moment.”

“Then, when will they come?”

“Either after we get annihilated, or after we reach the last phase of the battle. Then, they’ll definitely appear.”

“Okay, I feel like they’re always up to one trick or another. Scr*w them, we’re always fighting in the light, and they always fight in the darkness. It’s really unnerving.”

“Relax, have you forgotten? Don’t we still have a super-secret weapon up our sleeves? Haha…”

“Ahem…”

Before long, the party had cleared the second phase of the Seventh Demon God because of Li Yi and Qian’er’s sky-high damage. Within this party that consisted of a dozen or so players, the healers were top-notch, the main tanks were top-notch, and the DPS were also top-notch. Coupled with the fact that Li Yi was familiar with the strategy of fighting the Seventh Demon God, if they were to be annihilated at this stage, they were no longer fit to hold the title of Pantheon’s Strongest.

The Seventh Demon God vanished into the sky once again, signifying the start of the third phase.

The Fluttering Snow Alliance had yet to make a move, and the players that were standing guard around the altar were starting to feel unnerved.

Li Yi, on the other hand, understood the Fluttering Snow Alliance’s true intentions.

‘Want to copy our strategy, huh? Hehe, Bai Xiaoya, you’re far too naïve.’

Li Yi was well aware of Fluttering Snow Alliance’s thought process, but he was not bothered by it at all. Instead, he played as he normally would; devoid of any fear that his enemies would copy his tactics.

To be frank, it was impossible for anyone to hide their combat strategies against a public map boss like the Seventh Demon God. There were far too many eyes prying on them, and even if no one in their party recorded the battle, there was bound to be an outsider recording it. As such, this secret was not meant to be a secret.

Qian’er unleashed a Meteor Fire Shower, striking the Seventh Demon God and breaking its invisibility. Following that, the DPS initiated a full-forced assault, quickly shaving off its HP.

By the time Li Yi and his squad began to attack the Demon God, the players around the altar had begun to grow busy.

The Fluttering Snow Alliance had yet to reveal themselves, but quite a number of demonic monsterlings had now scurried out from their surroundings. Among them, there were a few purple-named generals, and they were all aggressive in nature. They would attack on sight and unprovoked, and as such, the only choice left for the players was to exterminate them.

Not long after, the Seventh Demon God had landed onto the ground, and most of the surrounding demonic monsterlings had already been slain. However, what they had experienced was only the beginning, as after only two minutes of rest, another, larger wave of demonic monsterlings surged out of the players’ surroundings.

“F*ck me! This must be the Fluttering Snow Alliance’s doing!”

“They’re pulling in monsters to disrupt our formation! Bai Xiaoya! It must be that Bai Xiaoya’s idea!”

Had it only been a dozen or so monsterlings, the players could chalk it up to the system’s fault. However, how could they still blame the system when there were thousands of monsterlings pouring in from every direction?

One of the players shouted, “I see them! There are a lot of Fluttering Snow Archers pulling the monsters to our side! Commander, what should we do?”

Pretty Good Mood thundered, “Do not break your formation! Do they think they’re the only ones who can pull monsters? Archers, get out and pull these monsters back to them!”

Thousands of Archers broke formation, and they led the demonic monsterlings back to the direction they came from.

As Archers were armed with the skill Mislead and Pseudocide, they were able to carry out many feats that were impossible to other classes, and their current situation was one such case.

The aggro of the thousands of demonic monsterlings had shifted, and they were now following the Archers back to where they came from.

“Attack!”

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

The moment the two forces of Archers met; a battle of arrows broke out.

“Vroom! Vroom!!”

At that moment, the two steel tridents on the Seventh Demon God Altar began to quake once again.

“Brothers, attack!”

A female voice rang out, and like a sharp blade, a massive force of Fluttering Snow players rushed out from the left, charging straight into the heart of the Iron Alliance!
