Chapter 509: 509
 

Li Yao listened to more opinions from others, many of which were constructive, to his great satisfaction. He was not actually insisting that team members come up with specific strategies.

He just hoped that they wouldn’t waste their intellect because of him.

Li Yao clapped his hands and said, “Many of your suggestions are good and inspiring to me.”

Sister Li stood up and said, “Hold off on scheduling for a moment, President. Let me say a few words. During the recent raid, some were still greedy for power. Let me emphasize again that our core team doesn’t assign equipment based on power output. We chose you because we believe in your abilities.”

“When you joined the core team, the President said he believes in your abilities. Snatching power output now is pointless. The President once said something that makes a lot of sense. That is, facing different bosses, the damage inflicted by the same profession could vary, some high and some low. This is determined by the boss’s attributes and mechanisms. This is why we, in the core team, don’t compare power outputs. But some of you still make mistakes even after my reminder. The president doesn’t mind, but he doesn’t want to punish you. But I’m not so nice.”

“Rules are rules. Although the greed for power didn’t kill anyone just now, it put a lot of pressure on the healers. Therefore, I’m issuing a warning. If this happens again, we’ll have to replace them. If you like to push for high power output, go find a team that does that. Our Starfire core team doesn’t need those types.”

Sister Li’s words instantly cooled the previous excited atmosphere. Most of the members lower their heads. Sister Li’s aura was too strong, and none of the members dared to meet her eyes.

Li Yao clapped his hands and said, “Alright, everybody, don’t look so depressed. Sister Li is trying to complete the raid as soon as possible, so her tone was a bit harsh. But you all know, there are a lot of guild matters waiting for her to handle. While you guys are resting, she is often occupied with guild matters during most of her own rest time. So everyone should take it seriously and try to finish it asap, so as to save Sister Li some effort. Isn’t it an honor for us to get the first kill?”

“Let’s move on. What’s your strategy? How should we adjust it?” said Qin Feng Yi, trying to smooth things over.

Li Yao nodded and said, “Based on everyone’s suggestions and the boss’s mechanism, I will make some adjustments to dispatching. When we start the battle, we will still focus on killing the nature-oriented treant first, followed by the balance-oriented one. This guy’s area spell is also not to be underestimated. For the rest, we need to adjust. We will reduce all three monsters to low health, split into three pairs, and eliminate them together, not giving them a chance to grow into frightening bosses. Then we will focus fire on the High Priest. This should make things much simpler.”

“That’s a good idea, but we need to move faster and aim to kill them before the boss uses that skill,” Unparalleled Demoness suggested.

Li Yao nodded and said, “I think the boss uses this skill only when he’s low on health. In the upcoming battle, try not to lower the boss’s health, using control skills and normal attacks would be okay. If he is always at full health, then there would be no point in releasing this skill.”

“This is uncertain. I saw that the boss and the Treant have both increased their health,” a newbie named Mu Zi pointed out.

Li Yao shook his head and said, “But primarily, the boss wants to replenish his own health. The Treant only benefits incidentally. If the boss has plenty of health, he probably won’t release this skill.”

“We can’t be sure without trying. Let’s keep trying,” Sister Li spoke up.

“Yes, but we need to be cautious, our Crystal Cores are limited, and I don’t want to run out of Crystal Cores while we’re farming them,” Li Yao added seriously.

The members also knew the seriousness of this matter. They all knew that it was impossible to defeat this boss without using Crystal Cores in exchange for certain things, starting from the illusions.

Thinking of that nightmarish day sent shivers down their spines.

Moreover, continuing to farm Crystal Cores would be a waste of time. If the delay was too long, who knew if other guilds might catch up?

Subsequently, the Starfire Guild started the new raid again.

The routine at the beginning was still the same. The healing-focused Treant was the first to be killed, a noticeable improvement; the members had apparently adapted to the use of the Nightmare Ball spray at the start, and not many were hit.

Under no pressure, they focused fire on those who, by accident, got hit by the Nightmare Ball, which was not very difficult anymore.

After this skill, they had to deal with the balance-oriented Treant. Even after the boss and Treant had increased their power, it remained within their tolerance.

The Fruit Knight, who had aggroed the boss, no longer used his damaging skills, not even the reflection of his shield.

As the boss’s healing power was terrifying, the boss’s health remained above 99%, which luckily avoided a rampage.

Meanwhile, Li Yao was constantly moving the members around, starting to whittle each Treant down to low health.

As they were not dead, the boss could not sacrifice their bodies to enhance his strength.

Finally, after more than thirty minutes of combat and two deaths from the Starfire side, three Treants were left in a critically low health status.

“Pull the two Treants together and take them down,” Li Yao commanded.

Now was the crucial moment. Now that they were short of one Blessing, the abilities of the two Ancient Trees hadn’t fundamentally changed. The Ancient Trees’ attacks were still manageable for the time being.

As the firepower poured on, the two Ancient Trees fell almost simultaneously.

“You wretches dare to kill my guardians? Receive the condemnation of their souls!”

At this moment, a veil of blood surrounded the Centaur High Priest, and his body had grown significantly larger than an average Centaur.

With his words, the whole altar began to flicker with light, and four black shadows appeared, which were the souls of the just killed Ancient Trees.

Everyone’s faces abruptly changed. This was unbelievable – they had just killed them, and now their souls were summoned back for combat.

“Nightstand, it’s your turn. Taunt all of them and keep them away from the crowd,” Li Yao said as soon as the illusions appeared.

Guardian Angel didn’t hesitate at all. He quickly taunted the twisted souls of the four Ancient Trees, leading them into the uniform.

“You weaklings, you can’t get past my Immutable Barrier.”

Before he could finish his sentence, four distorted souls that were approaching him exploded violently.

A deep purple glow covered at least a hundred yards. The dazzling light was incredibly bright. After the light faded, the four twisted Ancient Tree souls disappeared, and Guardian Angel had fallen on the ground, apparently dead.

“Jin Jin, revive him.” Li Yao said calmly, “Everyone else, scatter and focus on damaging the boss.”

“For the love of… Why am I always the one getting hurt?” Guardian Angel looked at Li Yao, visibly aggrieved.

“Enough nonsense, hurry up and build the second threat. If you can’t get over here in three seconds, Jin Jin will replace you,” Li Yao paused before adding, “Of course, you kept saying you were indestructible – I didn’t expect their ghosts to explode, nor did I foresee you getting blasted to death so easily.”

“….” Guardian Angel was at a loss for words. All he could do was rush over and establish the second threat…
