CHAPTER 437: CHAPTER 409: TYRANNOSAURUS GAINS FAME IN BATTLE

Professional gamers’ long-range shootouts are highly skillful. The previous text has introduced "Extreme Step Shooting," also known as "Phantom Step," where both sides’ ranged units stand at the maximum shooting distance, stepping forward to shoot an arrow that reaches the enemy, and stepping back just enough to dodge the incoming arrows.

The Centaur, a miraculous ranged unit inherently possessing the Mobile Shooting special skill, is undoubtedly the best unit to execute Phantom Step, especially on this vast wilderness, fully displaying the Centaur’s advantage in high-speed maneuverability. Under the control of a world-class professional player like Chang Liang, the Bloodrose Guild’s Crossbowmen are frequently hit and continually fall, while Bloodrose’s Crossbowmen, despite being full of BUFFs and blinded by the swirling sand, find it difficult to effectively retaliate. If this continues, the Priests’ healing Mana will not last long!

Facing the aggressive attack from Dragon Slayer’s Chang Liang, relying on an NPC hero whose skill level and troop strength are completely disadvantaged and even unaware of when he will take action is obviously unreliable. The Bloodrose Team must find a way to seek help!

— Regional Channel [Bloodrose Holy Spear]: Players in the Eastern Wilderness Town, many Beastman Players have come to provoke, let’s all go outside the city and harvest Merit together, don’t let them escape!

The only self-rescue method now is to stir up unsuspecting players to come and relieve the situation. After all, the Beastman’s influence is weak in the China Region, and this area is a stronghold for Human Race players, so ordinary players are likely to feel psychologically advantaged.

Sure enough, the town’s players were startled by the message; Beastman Players dare to be so arrogant? Isn’t this just delivering themselves and Merit on a silver platter?

Thus, a player of "unknown identity" in the town shouted, "Let’s go get some Merit!"

Immediately, players responded: "Together, together!"

In a moment, hundreds of players in the town followed the lead and headed straight for the barracks to gather troops and march out, creating a majestic sea of troops and people outside the city.

At this time, the undercover accounts that Dragon Slayer Guild had planted in the town monitored this grand scene, causing the Dragon Slayer headquarters to be a bit taken aback.

Ma Yinglong called Chang Liang and chuckled, "Stirred up a hornet’s nest, huh! If it’s troublesome, just leave, the mission is more important."

Having followed his boss for so many years, how could Chang Liang not know his boss’s temperament? If it really were something trivial, the boss would decidedly not call, the true intention of the boss was actually for him to press on!

Chang Liang then laughed: "Brother, I’m just short of some Merit here, and they are sending tons of it my way, I don’t find it troublesome at all!"

Ma Yinglong laughed heartily: "Good! Your Beastman account should also make a name for itself, it’s time for our Dragon Slayer’s Beastman force to stand tall and recruit more troops!"

Yes, this operation was not only to curb Bloodrose’s sharpness but also to vindicate the Beastman’s force in the China Region, encouraging a large number of new players, especially students who have just started school, to choose the Beastman force.

Chang Liang firmly said: "Brother, rest assured and just watch, I’ll definitely slaughter them till the rivers run red!"

.......

The enthusiastic support of the town’s players gave the entire Bloodrose Team a huge sigh of relief. However, despite this, Chang Liang on the opposing side still maintained his previous attack rhythm, unmoved.

Is he completely unaware of the movement of the town’s players? Or does he simply ignore the existence of the reinforcing players? The answer is obviously the latter! Suddenly, the entire Bloodrose Team tensed up again!

Bloodrose Qiqi was even more infuriated: "Even Little Zhu said he dares not engage in a melee, I really want to see how capable this top Dragon Slayer is to be this arrogant!"

Now, the town players’ reinforcement troops surged like a tide. The time to mobilize the masses had arrived!

— Regional Channel [Bloodrose Holy Spear]: Friends in Eastern Wilderness Town, the provocative Beastman is Dragon Slayer’s top player Tyrannosaurus Chang Liang, with so many of us here, shouldn’t we give him a piece of our mind?

Immediately, players in the regional channel robustly responded: "We have the numbers, let’s take on the top player, if he’s really that good, don’t run!"

Thus, the regional channel fervently responded: "Being arrogant? We’ll drown him with a spit each!"

— Regional Channel [Tyrannosaurus]: Ha ha ha! I’m letting you come closer, do you dare?

The regional channel surged with enthusiasm: "Charge!"

In no time, a dense and massive sea of people roared towards him!

And at this moment, a thunderous roar from the Beastman troops resounded around the plains, and the players and troops of the Bloodrose Team simultaneously saw a uniform -3 damage above their heads!

——System Prompt: You have taken damage from the enemy camp player Tyrannosaurus’ "Army’s Roar"! Your Morale -1.

"Army’s Roar!" astounded the entire team!

"Quickly heal the archer’s wounds!" exclaimed the Rose Knight.

Amid the shimmering golden light of healing spells over the grassland, another roar bellows, and the whole Bloodrose Team again loses 3 blood points!

Seeing this, the Rose Knight panicked: "Heal! Keep healing; don’t hold back Mana for Resurrection anymore! We’ll fight to the death!"

For crossbowmen with only 10 points of Basic Blood Volume, losing 3 points per roar is quite the terrifying damage. Indeed, this is the ultimate racial skill of Beastman that makes low-level players pale in fear—Army’s Roar!

—Army’s Roar: Beman Heroes inflict morale shock damage equivalent to their own troop count on the enemy. This shock damage cannot be reduced by Magic Resistance. For every level the special skill, Blood Rage, is increased, the effect of Army’s Roar rises by 10%. Each time Army’s Roar is unleashed, the enemy’s Morale drops by 1, and the user’s troop Rage Value drops by 20 points.

That means, the number of troops the Beastman Hero has is the exact amount of fixed damage inflicted on the opponent. This troop number is calculated by the Command Value. For instance, Chang Liang currently has a Command Power of 1000, carrying troops with a Command Value of 1000, making his Army’s Roar’s basic damage 1000 points, and then with a 50% increase effect of the master level Blood Rage, it becomes 1500 points.

Chang Liang’s Hero Special Ability is "Army’s Roar", which increases its effect by 1% every time the Hero gains a level. Now at level 40, that’s a total of 40% increased damage, adding up to 2100 points of damage that ignores Magic Resistance, shared among the entire Bloodrose Team!

Of course, the damage from Army’s Roar might not be the scariest aspect; the terrifying part is the constant loss of one Morale point with each roar, particularly fatal for races like the Human Race that heavily rely on Morale Burst.

Now, every time the Beastmen destroy a tactical position of the enemy, their Morale heightened and their Rage Value surged. That means, as long as Chang Liang’s forces continuously slaughter, his Rage Value won’t deplete, allowing continuous unleashes of Army’s Roar! With such dazzling damage from Army’s Roar, Chang Liang can kill players with fewer troops effortlessly by just roaring a few times!

This fearless stance is why he can face hundreds of players leaving the city!

However, the drawback of Army’s Roar is also clear: as long as a portion of his troops are taken out, its power drops. Since Army’s Roar consumes Rage Value, continuous use drains the Beastmen’s Rage, leaving them weak in both offense and defense.

But for a top expert like Chang Liang, managing strengths and avoiding weaknesses are naturally not the concerns of ordinary players.

.....

Now, with Chang Liang’s continuous full Rage Value roaring and support from Centaurs, Bloodrose Team’s crossbowmen finally couldn’t keep up with the healing pace and quickly collapsed. Without the long-range unit, the Bloodrose Team turned into hedgehogs without spines, unworthy of Chang Liang’s attention anymore as his maneuverable troops swooped like a whirlwind towards the swarming regular players!

Another war cry resounded!

A player who brought only dozens of crossbowmen fell on the spot! His entire army was annihilated, restoring a massive amount of Rage and triggering another Morale Burst for Chang Liang’s forces!

Roar! Roar!! Roar!!! War cries thundered across the wilderness! Wolf Cavalries and Centaurs darted throughout the field! Player troops fell like wheat before the wind, and Chang Liang instantly dominated the battlefield!

The entire region channel was in an uproar, and the Bloodrose Team was even more shocked!

At this moment, the shock in Da Fei’s heart was imaginable! If he were to face Chang Liang, would he be roared to death? If it were him, would he handle so many players this easily? The gap! This is the gap between himself, the so-called amateur number one, and a real professional expert!

If he’s not mistaken, Chang Liang must be using the account he sold to Ma Yinglong for the vampire inheritance, right? Now, even without engaging in melee combat, such impressive combat power is displayed; what more once the melee starts?

Urgency surged in Da Fei’s mind. Not for anything else, but because someone was stronger than him, which really irked him. He must find a way to counter Chang Liang. And didn’t he already have a Minstrel at hand to counter Chang Liang’s war cry? Yes, Little Coltner did mention on the boat that the Beastman’s war cry was also a type of singing, and only music could counteract music.

It seems he really must learn from this Minstrel Brother. Although it would be more suitable for Selvia to learn it, firstly, she might not always be by his side, and secondly, the Habbit Village Chief had also mentioned he could bring her to him for personal tuition; she has plenty of opportunities.

In short, once he gets on his main account, he’ll learn the profession. But the village chief mentioned that he lacks talent and might only remain an amateur for life even after learning – that’s quite troublesome.

Nah! Da Fei doesn’t buy it! Even Beethoven, a deaf man, could become a great composer revered through ages, and Da Fei, a genius who even tried multi-classing from Ranger Sentinel, couldn’t manage being a Minstrel? From now on, he too will attend an opera every week to enhance his performative prowess! And what about Ouling? We’re all dying here; why hasn’t he taken action yet? Believe it or not, I won’t take you to the opera anymore!

Da Fei sighed inwardly, relying on him was indeed unreliable. At this stage, any random player could enjoy a battle against such a caliber of hero. Even if Ouling appeared, he’d probably be roared to death by Chang Liang in a moment. Anyway, this hero comes easily and goes easily, and it doesn’t matter much to Da Fei’s second account anymore.

Now, the battlefield was in chaos, and the Bloodrose Team began their retreat amidst the confusion. The whole team, filled with beautiful members, silently lost their mood for laughter. Everyone knew that their Guild was going to be the top news, albeit for embarrassing themselves, only to glorify Dragon Slayer. (To be continued.
