Chapter 179: 179

While Li Yao was explaining his strategy, Feng Yi had already turned off the live stream. Although he was quite confident that his strategy for fighting the boss could not be easily duplicated by others, he still didn’t want others to know his strategy before he himself had defeated the boss.

“You can resume the live streaming now, I’ve explained everything clearly. Everyone understands, right?” Li Yao looked at his nine team members and said, “Of course, it’s no big deal if you don’t. Just follow my commands.”

“Check that all buffs are in place. Knight, go aggro the boss.”

Knight nodded, launched the attack on the boss with a Sanction Hammer, and slowly retreated while attacking, until he reached the edge of the Stone Hall.

“Aggro is stable, we can now do damage,” Knight said.

All attackers took their places and started attacking the boss, while Li Yao set up an Arrow Tower.

He then slowly retreated, watching the boss’s health bar carefully and saying, “Just as I said before, do not rush and go all out. Maintain a steady output.”

Li Yao now moved to the center of the Stone Hall, summoning a Crystal Spider. After observing for a moment, he closed his eyes to accurately simulate his plan.

He then mentally commanded the spider to start spinning a web. Yes, spinning a web.

Spider Silk is one of the most resistant materials, much stronger than steel in real life.

Li Yao identified a position and placed an Arrow Tower there, then found another spot, and set up another Arrow Tower.

“The fixed points are not enough, the rock wall isn’t sturdy enough. Xiayao, place your Stone Demon at the position I designated.”

“Understood.” Feng Yi commanded her Stone Demon to move to Li Yao’s designated position.

Next, the Crystal Spider began to spin its web non-stop.

“Slow down your damage output.” Li Yao continued to control the spider, while observing the situation on the boss’s side.

Of course, weaving an dense spider web isn’t possible. Not only is it impossible for the Crystal Spider to produce that much Spider Silk instantly, but also there wouldn’t be enough time. The vertical, non-sticky Spider Silk was arranged more densely, while the rings of sticky silk that could ensnare prey were fewer, with six rings from inside to out.

Li Yao continued to observe the boss’s health. When the boss’s health approached the point where Elemental Field was first released during their previous attempt, he ordered, “Except for Knight, all melee characters: retreat to twenty yards away from the boss. Healers: put a shield on Knight and be ready for instant healing. Xiayao: don’t withdraw your summoned skeletons.”

“Understood.”

Xiayao could summon three long-distance and two melee skeletons. Although their individual attacks were not strong, when combined, they were terrifying. At this point, all five skeletons replaced the melee characters, surrounding Prairie Fire.

“We need Goddess to explain, what’s Li Yao doing here?”

“Goddess, please analyze.”

“Goddess, please provide some commentary.”

The majority of the live stream viewers didn’t know what Li Yao was actually trying to achieve.

Feng Yi explained, “This is the case. According to the previous attempt, Li Yao has figured out the mechanism of Elemental Field. Apparently, it shoots a random magic bullet, and the target is a randomly selected character within twenty yards. My summoned skeletons are close to the boss because Knight can’t retreat. The skeletons can reduce the chance of him being hit by the magic bullet.”

“You must know that with Knight’s attributes, and the two healers’ Magic Shield, even if his health doesn’t reach its maximum, he won’t be killed instantly. However, if he gets hit by two random magic bullets in a row, death is inevitable,” Xiayao said.

Subsequently, as expected, the boss released his Elemental Field five seconds later. Knight was lucky, not a single magic bullet targeted him. and Xiayao’s three skeletons bravely sacrificed themselves.

“You can move up to attack now, but don’t rush, maintain a steady output. Don’t be greedy or hurried to drain the boss’s health. The two tanks, take turns attracting the boss’s attention.”

Li Yao was worried about the situation spinning out of control due to the boss’s health drain increasing his skill level. Nobody knew exactly what effect the boss’s other two skills could have. It was better to be cautious. Even though he had been reincarnated, he could not possibly remember which skill the boss of the level ten dungeon would use when.

Afterward, under Li Yao’s command, the team successfully endured the second Elemental Field. But things started to get unfamiliar again.

The only good thing was, the complex web constructed by the Crystal Spider under Li Yao’s command had been completed. Even though it was rudimentary, it had met the requirements simulated in Li Yao’s mind.

“Listen to my command now: everyone but Knight and the two healers, maintain a distance from the boss and gather in front of the Stone Demon. Knight, slowly retreat and lead the boss to the outermost spiderweb. Be careful, you can step on the vertical spider silks, but don’t get caught by the outer stickiness,” Li Yao commanded calmly.

“Understood.” Knight’s tone remained steady, without a single trace of fluctuation.

While everyone was watching eagerly, Knight slowly stepped back, blocking the boss’s attack with his shield. Everyone watched nervously as the boss stepped onto the sticky silk.

In reality, Li Yao was also extremely nervous. He had devised this strategy himself and, even though the simulation seemed flawless, no one could know for sure what would happen in practice. If the dungeon boss wasn’t immune to debuffs, Li Yao would have soloed it a long time ago.

Many details and accidents in reality cannot be reflected in the simulation. The slightest mishap could lead to failure.

Finally, Prairie Fire set his foot on the sticky silk, and his body was immobilized.

“Knight, retreat and maintain a distance of at least 20 yards from the boss. Be ready to take over at any time. All other long-distance players, wait for my signal, then unleash all you’ve got,” instructed Li Yao, switching to a level-ten purple weapon, marking the boss with the Mark of Death, and starting a frenzy of attacks. Huge damage numbers started floating around, and with the tank stepping back, the boss’s attention turned towards him almost instantly.

Snap…

Only three seconds, two sticky silks broke after three seconds of tension.

Prairie Fire shrieked strangely and rushed towards Li Yao. However, the boss had to step onto the next segment of sticky silk in order to reach Li Yao, and his body got ensnared for another three seconds.

“Attack with everything you’ve got.” Li Yao continued his calculations while slowly retreating. Seeing this happening, the rest of the team cheered up because it meant they had succeeded. Using all their strength, they unleashed a wave of attacks.

After that, it was Li Yao continuously guiding the boss to step onto sections of sticky silk, while the Crystal Spider rebuilt new sticky silks two segments away from the boss, replenishing the consumption of the sticky silks.

Since the melee characters surrendered their attacks, the boss’s skill couldn’t hit anyone. Even the Elemental Field, which has a range of twenty yards, was completely useless. All it could do was to roar in fury.

“6666666666666666.”

The chat room was filled with such comments.

“This weird method actually worked.”

“Although it’s strange, it seems very effective.”

“I bow down to Li Yao, is there anything you can’t do?”

Li Yao didn’t let his guard down. He said, “Don’t celebrate too early, seize the opportunity to attack. Don’t be greedy and keep your distance once the boss breaks free from the sticky silk. Do not let the boss get within the 20-yard range.”

“Got it.” This time, the team members were finally confident about defeating the boss…

Ps: It took me a while to write this chapter as I had to consider a lot of factors when designing the dungeon’s mechanics.

Ok, I want to thank a friend who gave me a very large tip, I owe an extra chapter now, but I can update it daily to repay it now.
