"…".
Upon hearing this, Ming Du shut his mouth. Nine Solitary Spears, who was running his mouth off, stopped talking as well.
If one were to be kicked out of the dungeon, they would reap no rewards. As the squad captain, Fearless had every right to do so.
Nine Solitary Spears knew that Fearless was a cunning fellow, it was surprising that he had not tried to get him out of the Dungeon.
Ming Du was not afraid of being kicked out, but the members of the Quan Zhen Sect all knew that once Fearless was tolerant of the enemy, it proved that he had some sort of plan in mind.
Fearless' ruthlessness and cunningness were well understood by the Quan Zhen Sect's members, they would rather anger Wang Yu than him.
Even though Wang Yu was powerful, he was a reasonable person. Fearless, on the other hand, was vicious.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Fearless spoke, "These monsters aren't difficult to kill, the tanks can hold the front, the mages will clear them in one wave.".
Crotch Lord raised his shield and stepped forward after hearing Fearless' instructions, Thunderlord followed suit reluctantly.
With the two guardians in front, the rest followed behind them and came before the Skeleton camp.
Crotch Lord and Thunderlord unleashed a taunt as the Skeletons in the valley gathered once again.
Because of Crotch Lord's presence and the priests healing them from behind, Thunderlord had no need to use the Dual Air Seeker Strike.
After the Skeletons surrounded them, Thunderlord broke his shield into two blades and rushed forward.
At the same time, Crotch Lord unleashed an AOE taunt, sucking all of the Skeleton warriors in.
With the two Guardians attacking and defending, the monsters were pushed around seamlessly as if the two of them had been training together for the longest time.
The Skeleton Warriors' aggro were focused onto both Crotch Lord and Thunderlord, but in gathering monsters, their aggro had to be pulled to one target, so that the would not split up.
Thunderlord used his offensive moves to taunt the monsters, and at the same time, Crotch Lord initiated his group taunt and pulled the monsters back and forth in perfect tandem.
The synergy was akin to two players who had played together for the longest time.
As the MT of the country, Thunderlord was confident in his own abilities- in his eyes, apart from Wang Yu, no one else could challenge him, but who would have thought that this Guardian was decent as well?
"It has to be a coincidence…" Thunderlord frowned as he looked at Crotch Lord.
Ming Du dished out his Thunderous Hellfire as Prideful Frost, the mage behind Nine Solitary Spears, casted his rain of frost.
-1421
-6478
-2144
-7542
...
The string of numbers appeared above the Skeleton Warriors' heads within a few seconds. The archers and bandits dished out damage as the Skeleton Warriors fell.
Seeing the sight before him, Thunderlord could not help but be surprised.
Even though the other classes did help output damage, the large portion of it was dealt by the mages.
The health of the Skeleton Warriors was not low either at 10,000. If they were regular creatures, normal mages would need at least forty or fifty seconds to get rid of them. What in the world was this damage output?
Prideful Frost was part of Apocalypse, before entering the dungeon, they had already interacted. He had good equipment, but his staff's magic attack was not high. Plus, it was a control type staff, not the AOE type that his spell was, the damage could not have been so high.
Could it be the mage from the Quan Zhen Sect?
Thunderlord looked over at Ming Du and thought, "It has to be him, who would have thought that apart from that weird Pugilist, the Quan Zhen Sect still had such a powerful mage.".
Fire and lightning magic, together with a top tier staff, could output huge amounts of damage, which was good for getting rid of small monsters in large groups. However, because most of the skills were not single target abilities, it wasn't that useful in PVP situations. Despite this, Thunderlord knew that he was a powerful player.
"Good job, continue pushing!" Fearless rallied as they pushed forward.
After its aggro got activated, the monsters in the Skeleton formation organised themselves, the mages stood in their lines within seconds.
Mage monsters had low health, Crotch Lord and Thunderlord raised their shields in front of them and rushed forward, intending to break them apart.
But at that moment, a black circle of light illuminated from the ground as the bones of the fallen Skeletons began vibrating vigorously.
Fearless immediately warned, "This isn't good, retreat!".
Before he could finish his words, the Skeleton Warriors reassembled themselves and blocked the squad from reaching the backline. Thunderlord and Crotch Lord were both surrounded.
There were over thirty Skeleton Warriors that were resurrected, and a dozen of them turned towards Crotch Lord and Thunderlord as they charged over.
"F*ck, old dog Fearless, you actually fell into a trap set by monsters," Nine Solitary Spears raged.
If the resurrected Skeletons were to tear their tanks apart, could a squad without tanks still be considered a squad? The tanks in front were in real danger.
When they raised their shields, tankers could only block damage from the front, their backs were still exposed.
The Skeleton Warriors all had high physical attacks under the formation BUFF, in addition to the armor penetration provided by the undead weapons. No matter how high their HP were, the situation did not look optimistic for the two tanks.
If they were to turn around, it would only hasten their deaths since the mages and archers had much higher damage output.
"Save them!!" Fearless shouted to Wang Yu and Spring Halo, ignoring Nine Solitary Spears' words.
Just as the Skeleton Warriors were about to attack the two tankers, a circle appeared beneath the two men's feet as a distortion enchantment surrounded the two.
"Boom boom boom boom".
The Skeleton Warriors' blades slammed against the distortion enchantment as waves of echo resounded. The Skeletons were slowly rooted one by one outside the distortion enchantment.
