Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 337
Chapter 337 How Long Was It?
Without [Gale Steps], Xu You would have to take risks and be troublesome to export.
Previously, when Xu You was flying a kite, all the monsters that could not be forcefully carried would use the Gale Steps combination skill to output. Furthermore, he would definitely use the Wave Second Stage Slash to match the Gale Steps. Apart from the Wave Second Stage Slash being the skill with the highest total damage, it was also because this skill had a one-second coma.
Since the serial hidden missions were all faced with Lord level monsters, they had to minimize the number of attacks from Lord level monsters. This was precisely the purpose of the kite tactics.
Therefore, after using the Gale Steps combination skill to attack once, Xu You had to retreat immediately. With the first slash of the [Wave Two Stage Slash], Xu You would be able to safely leave the monster’s range of 5 meters. As for melee monsters, their attack range was only 3 meters, so naturally, they would not be able to hit Xu You.
If it wasn’t for the short period of unconsciousness of [Wave Two Phase Slash], Xu You was likely to be attacked by the Lord Monster in close combat. If he didn’t want to be injured, he could rely on his unreliable defensive and evasive skills to defend himself. However, in the past, he could only use the most reliable Hammer of Sanctions to ensure that he could safely escape. That would be too wasteful. The Hammer of Sanctions skill could save Xu You’s life at any time.
Therefore, if Xu You wanted the kite output, he must have used the combination of [Gale Steps] and [Wave Two-Stage Slash]. With the powerful output ability of this combination skill, if nothing unexpected happened, he would normally be able to successfully kill the target three or four times.
So, using this combination skill to make a kite lord monster, The biggest benefit is safety, Apart from saving the Hammer of Punishment, Xu You only needed to approach the Lord Monster when the Gale Steps cooled down and retreat after the attack. This way, if the Lord Monster did not have the ability to advance, it could only use a relatively weak long-range attack. Facts had proved that even a Lord level melee monster could deal very little damage from a long-range attack.
Reduces melee attacks by Lords, Naturally, it would be safe, In addition, due to the abnormal explosive output of the Gale Steps combination skill, If the lord monster wasn’t a tank-type monster, it could kill more than one-third of its health in a single attack. Most monsters used their large moves when their HP was less than 30%. Then, they would immediately lose the last third of the lord monster’s HP with the Gale Steps combination skill, and they wouldn’t be able to use any more powerful moves.
Hence, with the Gale Steps, Xu You could safely and simply fight against powerful monsters that the kite could not resist. The most important thing was to ensure that he would not die if he fought against these monsters alone.
However, the problem now was that he couldn’t use Gale Steps. In this way, if he wanted to export a kite, there were two ways, both of which were quite troublesome.
One was to use the only semi-ranged skill, Justice Judgment, to slowly deplete. The other was to approach the attack. In order to safely output, one had to first use the Hammer of Sanctions to control the Corpse Devouring Beast, then slash it twice and run. After the Hammer of Sanctions cooled down again, one would then approach the attack.
Although there were two ways, they could be combined together. They were two-pronged. However, as long as the second method was used, the Hammer of Sanctions wouldn’t be able to save his life. If the Corpse Devouring Beast still had any abnormal skills and was in danger, Xu You could only use the Holy Shield Technique. However, if he didn’t use the Hammer of Sanctions, he could only slowly use the first method. It took a lot of time, but it was very safe.
How much Xu You envied the mage and hunter professions nowadays, because these long-distance professions were the most suitable for flying kites. For a close combat profession like Xu You, flying kites was either inefficient or unsafe.
However, Xu You could fly a kite in close combat. He was already much stronger than many players in the Illegal Master Hunter profession. The [Divine Speed Halo] and the [Frost Halo] gave Xu You the conditions to use the kite flying tactics. It was precisely because of this that Xu You was able to single-handedly challenge many monsters of the elite level and above. He should be satisfied.
Of course, Xu You wouldn’t have such troubles if he could use his battle skill to block the monster’s attack.
“In the end, it’s still because I’m not strong enough.” Looking at the entrance of the Beast Devouring Cave, Xu You muttered to himself before walking in. Very quickly, the Corpse Devouring Beast ran out with Xu You.
Without any hesitation, Xu You would definitely choose to use both methods together. If it wasn’t safe, then it wouldn’t be safe. Anyway, the moment he used Gale Steps, the boss would obediently “go home”. If there was any danger, he could use this skill. At worst, he could fight again.
Because he had to wait for the Hammer of Sanctions to cool down, Xu You could only launch two melee attacks in 30 seconds. The rest of the time, he had to use Justice to consume his HP. In this way, he could still kill more than 10,000 damage to the Corpse Devouring Beast in one minute and 20,000 damage in two minutes. This was twice as much as using the Gale Steps combination skill. After all, the cooldown of Gale Steps took two minutes and was longer.
It was precisely because of this that Xu You chose to use both methods together. It was highly efficient. However, what Xu You was worried about still happened, and that was the safety issue.
Three minutes later, the Corpse Devouring Beast’s HP dropped to 30,000, that is, below 50% health. It used a new skill. It was neither a ranged attack skill nor a sneak attack skill. Instead, it suddenly increased its movement speed like a Thief class’s Swift Run. It roared like a tank.
“F*ck! Isn’t this a tank-type monster? How could it have the skill of a Thief?” Before Xu You could say a word, the Corpse Devouring Beast had already approached him. After accelerating, the movement speed of the Corpse Devouring Beast had actually exceeded 10 meters per second. Xu You, who was not far from the Corpse Devouring Beast, was caught up to him in a short while.
Right now, the Hammer of Sanctions was still cooling down. Xu You gritted his teeth and raised his dragon fangs, hoping to resist the Corpse Devouring Beast with his parry combat skill. Unfortunately, he failed. The arm of the Corpse Devouring Beast, which was made of something unknown, successfully hit Xu You and knocked out more than 1,800 blood from Xu You.
From this, it could be seen that the attack of the Corpse Devouring Beast was not as high as that of the Lu Xingniao, but Xu You was still going to die after being beaten twice.
There was no other choice. Xu You had to activate the [Holy Shield Technique]. Hopefully, in 10 seconds, the Corpse Devouring Beast’s Egg Pain Acceleration Skill would end. Xu You also took advantage of the invincible 10 seconds to launch an attack on the Corpse Devouring Beast. At this time, [Rapid Aura], [Berserk Aura] would have to replace [Divine Aura] and [Frost Aura].
However, Invincible’s damage was halved, so it only took 10 seconds to kill 3000 HP of the Corpse Devouring Beast. However, it was better than nothing. However, after 10 seconds of Invincible, the acceleration skill of the Corpse Devouring Beast did not end.
“I knew it wouldn’t be that easy to fight.” Xu You cursed inwardly. Before the Corpse Devouring Beast’s fierce attack arrived, he used the Gale Steps to escape from the battle. The Corpse Devouring Beast turned back into the pile of feces that had returned home and was no longer a threat.
After this battle, Xu You finally understood the Corpse Devouring Beast’s attack ability. Although it was a tank-type monster, its attack was still not ordinary. Furthermore, in the past 10 seconds, Xu You had seen the Corpse Devouring Beast release skills. However, they were all useless. As expected, once he got close, the Corpse Devouring Beast’s various skills would be thrown out. Xu You did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to survive the Corpse Devouring Beast skill.
At the same time, Xu You also understood once again that he was unable to cultivate his own battle skills, and he could not even withstand the first attack of the Corpse Devouring Beast. How could he dare to fight a second time? After failing the second time, he knelt down.
Originally, without the help of the Hammer of Sanctions, Xu You felt like a ferocious man standing in the middle of a group of bitter women. Moreover, he only wore a pair of shorts and didn’t feel safe at all.
However, this time, even with the Hammer of Sanctions, it was useless. The accelerated Corpse Devouring Beast was much faster than Xu You. Even if the Corpse Devouring Beast was unconscious for four seconds, the Corpse Devouring Beast could easily catch up to Xu You.
Besides, just now, after the Invincible End, Xu You said, He immediately used [Gale Steps], so along with the 2 seconds it took to defend against the Corpse Devouring Beast with his combat skill, he only lasted 12 seconds. At that time, the acceleration of the Corpse Devouring Beast was not over, so Xu You could only confirm that the acceleration was at least 12 seconds, but he could not know how long the acceleration would last.
If the Corpse Devouring Beast’s HP dropped to 50%, it would have an accelerated state before dying. This battle would be impossible because there was no way to fly a kite. However, this was just a guess. Generally speaking, the Lord Monster would not be that abnormal.
“What should we do now?” Xu You had a headache. Right now, the problem was how long the Corpse Devouring Beast’s acceleration skill was. If Xu You could survive this acceleration skill, he might still have to fight.
After 10 minutes of [Holy Shield Technique] cooldown, Xu You decided to fight again. This time, the main purpose was to test the duration of the Corpse Devouring Beast’s acceleration skill. Therefore, when the health of the Corpse Devouring Beast dropped to 50%, Xu You had to stay as far away from the Corpse Devouring Beast as possible.
In fact, the Corpse Devouring Beast could not pose a threat to Xu You until its HP dropped to 50%. Therefore, Xu You attacked at close range from the very beginning. Only when the Corpse Devouring Beast still had a little bit of HP left before dropping below 30,000 HP did he leave the Corpse Devouring Beast and use the “Justice Judgment” to consume HP.
When the Corpse Devouring Beast still had more than 30,200 HP, Xu You once again moved far away from the Corpse Devouring Beast. He took out a black ball-like object and threw it at the Corpse Devouring Beast. It was a bomb that Xu You had obtained from Zhang Ping. Originally, Xu You thought that this bomb could only be used as a collectible, but now, it was of use.
Since the bomb was thrown 30 meters away, it was much farther than the Justice Trial, so it was most suitable to use this bomb to consume the last 200 blood of the Corpse Devouring Beast. As the bomb accurately exploded, the blood of the Corpse Devouring Beast finally fell below 30,000 points, turning it into a Mercedes-Benz tank.
The moment Xu You threw out the bomb, he began to run backwards. When the bomb hit the carnivorous beast, the distance between the two was 36 meters. This was the furthest Xu You could go from the accelerated carnivorous beast.
The accelerated Corpse Devouring Beast was about 4 meters per second faster than Xu You. If the Corpse Devouring Beast wanted to attack Xu You, it would first need 9 seconds to catch up to Xu You. After catching up to Xu You, Xu You would naturally use the Hammer of Punishment to delay for another 4 seconds. Afterwards, he could only use the Holy Shield Technique to support himself. This would add up to 23 seconds!
After Xu You’s Invincible ended, he also planned to use his battle skill to delay it for a bit longer, but he failed again and was beaten up, so he could only delay it for two more seconds.
In the end, Xu You got the result that the Corpse Devouring Beast’s accelerated state lasted for more than 25 seconds!
Because when Xu You was powerless to use the Gale Steps to save his life, the Corpse Devouring Beast was still a tank, not a pile of shit.
“Damn, how long is this acceleration?”
