Next, two absolute top-tier pieces of equipment for mages were placed in the trade window with Xu Lin:
[Agile Bracers] (green equipment)
Defense: 14
Health: +50
Agility: +6
Intelligence: +5
Required Level: 12
[Sorcerer's Staff] (green equipment)
Magic Attack: 8-15
Intelligence: +7
Stamina: +3
Required Level: 8
...After the trade, Xu Lin immediately put on the clothes, then waved the staff in her hand and said, "This robe is really beautiful, Lin Fan, thank you. I'll also calculate commission for these two pieces of equipment for you!"
Xu Lin's curvaceous figure indeed looked even more beautiful after putting on the robe. Her entire person became so tall and slender, and with her beautiful face, she instantly gained the capital to captivate all.
Hearing that there was also commission, I excitedly said, "Thank you, my lord!"
Xu Lin chuckled, "Oh, stop it! By the way, I heard you took on a very difficult quest. Xin Yu and I will help you with it. Xue Han is also in the city, let's call her over too. The four of us should be able to handle it!"
I nodded and looked back. Now, players could already be seen in small groups in Hurricane City. In the next two days, this place would probably be packed.
Xin Yu returned after repairing her equipment, and Lu Xuehan also trotted over at Xu Lin's summons.
With all four gathered, after checking our potions and Hearthstone Scrolls, we set off together towards Half-Side Mountain!
Unlike last time, this time with the powerful attack power of Xu Lin and Xin Yu, my pressure was greatly reduced. Level 18 monsters were actually crushed and killed within just 10 seconds. If it were just Lu Xuehan and I fighting, it would take at least half a minute!
The group was extremely arrogant, practically sweeping through all the monsters at the foot of Half-Side Mountain. In party mode, the experience each person gained was much higher than 1/4 of each monster's. Not long after, Xu Lin actually leveled up to 11!
The Orc Witch Doctor Nicola stood alone in the desolate valley, opposite him, a small flower emitted a soft glow.
"What are you waiting for? Xin Yu use Concussion Shot to pull the monster, Lin Fan use Heavy Strike, Xue Han pay attention to healing the attacked teammates!" Xu Lin rapidly issued commands, her leadership style fully evident.
Xin Yu immediately shot an Archer's Concussion Arrow, hitting Nicola accurately. "88," a red number floated up, a very good attack!
I also immediately stepped forward, offering a Heavy Strike without hesitation, followed by a level 1 Combo. The two rapid attacks made Nicola's body, which was rushing towards Xin Yu, pause. At this moment, Xu Lin's Ice Arrow Spell also arrived. Although it only dealt 45 points of damage, the freezing effect completely slowed Nicola down, making him move like an ice sculpture.
"Looks like it's going to be easy~!" Xin Yu said with a smile.
Amidst Xin Yu's laughter, a sudden change occurred!
Nicola, who had already lost 1/3 of his health, raised his hands high and shouted hoarsely, "Exterminate all evil in front of you, my brave Priests, come out! Fulfill your mission!"
"Whoosh~!"
Eight Orc Shaman Priests appeared out of thin air around Nicola!
Almost instantly, various spells flashed continuously. One Priest raised his hand and cast a Purify, my movements immediately became very slow, and the Mind Fire that Lu Xuehan had cast on me also disappeared. What was even more fatal was that a holy radiance actually pulled Nicola's health up, instantly restoring him to full health!
Damn it, I knew it wouldn't be that simple!
Seven consecutive electric orbs landed on me, and my health instantly dropped from 446 to 234. Just one more hit and I would probably lose a level!
At this moment, a white light flashed, and my health recovered to 356. Lu Xuehan's Healing Spell was very timely!
"Xin Yu, let's split up and pull monsters, Concussion Shot the main monster!" Xu Lin continued to give orders.
Xin Yu quickly used a Double Shot to attract the firepower of two Shamans, and Xu Lin also used two fireballs to draw away two Shamans. With the pressure greatly reduced, I then focused my attacks on one of the Shamans. With the support of Lu Xuehan's Healing Spell, we miraculously survived.
Fortunately, the Shamans' health was around 500. I took down one of them with 4 consecutive sword strikes, while Xin Yu and Xu Lin were overwhelmed by the four Shamans. At this point, Lu Xuehan played her role, continuously casting Healing Spells on us, pulling our lives back from the brink of death again and again.
When I single-handedly cut down the fourth Shaman, the situation finally began to turn in our favor. After helping Xin Yu and Xu Lin deal with the other four Shamans, everyone finally faced Nicola in a 4-on-1 battle again. However, he was shameless, and after only a few hits, he raised his hand again to summon helpers!!
"Concussion Shot!!"
Nicola was stunned, and his summoning skill was forcibly interrupted. My heart was in my throat. Just using Heavy Strike and Combo had almost depleted my limited magic, and Lu Xuehan, who had been constantly healing, was even more so. From her flushed face now, it seemed the battle just now was quite stimulating for her too!
Five seconds passed, and Nicola raised his hand again, preparing to summon!!
"I can't, my Concussion Shot cooldown is 10 seconds!" Xin Yu said hurriedly, her great pride beneath her breastplate rising and falling.
"Don't worry, my Combo should also be able to interrupt summoning magic!" I said nervously while using Combo.
"Whoosh~!"
As I expected, Nicola's summoning skill was successfully interrupted!
Xu Lin excitedly said, "Great! Just like this, you two take turns interrupting his casting. We should be able to deal with him safely!"
Nicola's attack power wasn't high, even lower than the Priests he summoned. He just had more health. Five minutes later, Nicola finally unwillingly fell under our group's assault!
"Whoosh~!"
Three rays of light rose in the valley. Lu Xuehan, Xin Yu, and I all leveled up at the same time, and Xu Lin also gained more than half a level of experience. It was clear that this little Orc old man was practically an experience book!
"It looks like there's equipment~" Lu Xuehan exclaimed.
Xu Lin immediately walked up excitedly. Beneath Nicola's remains, a female garment lay quietly. Next to the garment was a book. Xu Lin immediately shared the items:
