Chapter 104 Underestimated

Underestimating a hundred-man dungeon was like underestimating the whole team, which made everyone unhappy. But now, activating four stone statues at once showed that he thought highly of the team, yet everyone was still unhappy. It seemed being an MT was difficult.

The four stone statues were all the same class: swordsmen, one of the 24 classes. Unlike player classes, their stone swords didn't have sword light or sword qi, just simple, unadorned chops, slashes, and thrusts. Compared to player swordsmen, their attack range was somewhat smaller. Swordsmen had many skills, like the Draw Sword, which used sword light or sword qi to extend the damage range beyond the physical length of the weapon. These four statues didn't have such abilities.

The four stone statues were activated at the same time. Happy Sheep cursed, "Damn it!" His heart leaped into his throat. He was afraid that Unrivaled Super Handsome would roll forward again, which would activate a total of six statues. This was an unprecedented achievement, and Happy Sheep had no interest in attempting it.

Fortunately, Unrivaled Super Handsome didn't roll forward again. After two more statues jumped out to attack, he leaped diagonally backward, dodging the two swords. But the stone swords of the two statues in front were already coming down.

A pure white light emanated from Unrivaled Super Handsome, like a miniature universe being born. He had activated Knight's Spirit in that instant.

He stepped forward, his left hand holding the shield to protect himself, his right hand thrusting out his sword. Empowered by Knight's Spirit, this attack was called Heroic Charge!

Unrivaled Super Handsome's movements were faster than the stone statues' attacks. His sword struck the waist of the first statue to attack.

The stone statue flew backward, but Unrivaled Super Handsome's footsteps didn't pause.

Heroic Charge under Knight's Spirit never stopped!

Bang!

The second statue was also knocked flying, heading straight for the first statue.

What about the third and fourth statues? They weren't on Unrivaled Super Handsome's line of charge. But with two bangs, the third and fourth statues were also sent flying.

Everyone was stunned, especially the knights in the team.

"Was that… an arc charge?" The current 3rd Tank said hesitantly to the 4th Tank.

"It seems like it…" The 4th Tank couldn't believe it either.

"It definitely was," Seven Blossom Leaves said with certainty. He had seen it clearly. If it wasn't an arc charge, then not to mention the third and fourth statues, even the second statue couldn't have been knocked away with that effect.

The 3rd and 4th Tanks were speechless.

An arc charge meant not going in a straight line, but charging along a curved path. Making a curved trajectory wasn't that difficult, but the hard part was making the curve achieve the desired effect, reaching the intended target.

Unrivaled Super Handsome's arc charge hit four moving targets that weren't in a straight line. How precise did the calculation and skill control have to be? Only players familiar with the knight class could appreciate the difficulty of that attack.

And now, all four stone statues were sent crashing together by a single charge.

Unrivaled Super Handsome leaped into the air, performing a Heroic Leap. His sword landed, striking one of the four statues that had fallen into a pile. But the damage was dealt equally to each of them. Under Knight's Spirit, Heroic Leap had a new name: Just Heroic Leap.

The original Heroic Leap dealt the most damage to the target struck, with the rest only receiving damage from the shockwave. But under Just Heroic Leap, the damage of the strike was delivered to everyone along with the shockwave. Moreover, the damage was calculated based on the defense of the target struck, and that much damage would be deducted from the other characters.

Unrivaled Super Handsome's strike dealt the exact same damage to all four stone statues. Already piled on top of each other, they were unable to stand up.

"Attack!" Ye Xiu roared.

Everyone had been somewhat stunned by his solo battle against the four stone statues. They only reacted when they heard his roar.

Some attacked, while others hesitated.

How could they defeat four stone statues?

And the healers were even more awkward as they raised their staffs. They didn't have anything to do yet. Unrivaled Super Handsome had started fighting the four stone statues at the same time, but he hadn't taken any damage yet.

"Everyone, go!" Seven Blossom Leaves suddenly called out to the 3rd and 4th Tanks, and rushed forward.

"Heroic Charge!" Ye Xiu called out.

"Understood!" Seven Blossom Leaves seemed to know what to do. A white light emanated from his body, and he charged forward.

Although he didn't have Ye Xiu's skill of using an arc charge to knock down four targets in different positions, the positions of the four stone statues seemed to have been carefully designed, lined up perfectly straight.

One charge hit two, two hit three, and three hit four. The charge continued unabated because it was a Heroic Charge.

Bang...

It seemed there was an echo.

The four stone statues were all knocked to the side by Seven Blossom Leaves' charge, crashing heavily into the stone platforms they had originally stood on.

Seven Blossom Leaves' control was quite fast. He had already jumped high into the air, performing a Heroic Leap. The four stone statues, which had just been knocked off balance, were immediately knocked to the ground.

The attacks of the many output players arrived in a torrent. The corner under the stone platform was instantly so dazzling that it was impossible to see what was happening. The space was too small, and many melee classes couldn't even get close, shouting anxiously from the back.

"Giving you one!" Someone shouted. A stone statue actually broke out of the encirclement. In front of it, Unrivaled Super Handsome ran awkwardly, his sword-wielding hand making a disdainful gesture, obviously taunting the statue.

"This time, you don't need to copy me," Ye Xiu didn't forget to remind Seven Blossom Leaves.

"I know," Seven Blossom Leaves smiled. "3rd Tank!"

The 3rd Tank, the former vice-tank, heard Seven Blossom Leaves' call and almost instinctively prepared to charge forward.

But seeing Seven Blossom Leaves' charge, he understood what he should do.

Open Knight's Spirit, Heroic Charge, Just Heroic Leap.

The three stone statues had no power to resist. Just as they were about to retaliate, they were knocked down by the knight's attack.

And the one that was still active was pulled aside by Unrivaled Super Handsome, being bombarded by those melee classes who couldn't get close before.

The healers were also busy on this side. Unrivaled Super Handsome hadn't been hurt when facing four statues, but now that he was tanking one, he was constantly being hit by the statue, as if deliberately creating work for the healers.

"Pay attention to crowd control, throw Xiulu Lu!" Seven Blossom Leaves was directing the battle on this side. (Xiulu Lu: Possibly a type of grenade or crowd control item)

The Witch class players didn't dare to be negligent of their MT's instructions, and hurriedly threw items and flicked their sleeves.

"4th Tank!" When the situation was slightly out of control, Seven Blossom Leaves immediately called out.

The 4th Tank was prepared, opening Knight's Spirit, Heroic Charge, Just Heroic Leap...

With the original setup, it would have ended there. With only four people, they couldn't achieve a cycle. Although the cooldowns for Charge and Heroic Leap weren't too long, Knight's Spirit, this awakening ultimate, wasn't a shared skill for the same class below level 20. Its cooldown was measured in seconds...

But with the current setup, the team had a 5th Tank.

The 5th Tank, who had originally thought he would be sidelined, held his sword and shield, excitedly preparing himself.

However, having one more person wasn't enough to create a cycle with Knight's Spirit. This cycle would still be interrupted. But looking at the health of the three stone statues being ganged up on, the experienced players already knew.

Although they were as strong as a normal dungeon boss, the number of players here wasn't the five or ten of a normal small dungeon. The damage per second dealt by so many players outputting together was several times that of a five or ten-person team.

As long as they could control it well and output quickly, the speed of killing them would be at the level of killing small monsters.

The 5th Tank finally made his move.

And when he finished this wave of skills, the complete control over the three stone statues was about to end. Without Knight's Spirit, even using Charge and Heroic Leap, the effects were completely different from when Knight's Spirit was active. It was impossible to knock down all three stone statues together.

The three stone statues' lives were in danger, but it seemed like they could still hold on for a while.

Seven Blossom Leaves suddenly had a headache! Because what was being controlled about these three statues was their actions. Their aggro was not being controlled at all. After this action control was interrupted, who did they have aggro on?

No one knew.

Aggro chaos was usually the opening act of a team wipe...

"Everyone scatter!" Seeing that the three stone statues had indeed persevered, Seven Blossom Leaves hurriedly called out, followed by another shout.

This shout wasn't him shouting. It was a skill he released: Roar!

All three stone statues were within the range of his roar. Regardless of how chaotic the aggro was, this attack had to come at him.

Three swords came at once. Seven Blossom Leaves raised his shield to block. With a muffled bang, Seven Blossom Leaves staggered, his health dropping by more than half. If the aggro of these three stone statues all gathered on him at this moment, and they followed up with another attack, he would be finished!

Just at that moment, there was another roar.

The 3rd Tank used the skill Roar.

Seven Blossom Leaves breathed a sigh of relief, and then realized that the little time he had managed to gain was being wasted by the output players' disorganized attacks.

"Hurry up!" Seven Blossom Leaves roared. He knew that the output players were a little slow to react. His roar had startled them when the three stone statues charged out together.

There was no time to waste! Seven Blossom Leaves was anxious. After his roar, the output players seemed to wake up from a dream, and hurriedly seized the opportunity to attack the stone statues as they charged towards the 3rd Tank.

The 3rd Tank parried an attack, suffering just as much damage as Seven Blossom Leaves.

The 4th Tank was also prepared, having already stood at the right distance, and let out another roar. The three stone statues hurriedly switched targets again. This time, the output players didn't need to be reminded and hurriedly gave chase.

The 5th Tank had been eager to try for a long time. He chose the limit of the roar range, trying to make the three stone statues run as far as possible with this roar, in order to buy more time.

The opportunity to perform came quickly. The 5th Tank immediately roared, and Seven Blossom Leaves followed with a shout, "Not good!"

"What's not good?" The 5th Tank was at a loss. The three stone statues were coming, and he was standing in the right spot.

"Behind you!" Everyone shouted.

The 5th Tank turned around and realized, "Crap!" He had forgotten about the fourth stone statue. This roar not only brought the three stone statues over, but also brought the fourth stone statue charging towards him. The combined attack of four stone statues... The 5th Tank's face turned pale. He knew his stats clearly. His equipment was already worse than the first three tanks, and he definitely couldn't withstand this combined attack.

But just as the attack was about to land, there was another roar. Followed by a person's voice, "What's the panic? We still have the MT who hasn't made a move yet!"
