C590 A Gatekeeper's Dog
During the period when the new map was just opened, the occurrence rate and experience points would increase by 1% to 3%. Therefore, whenever a new map appeared, experienced players would immediately rush over. Just like the Lion King Mountain from before. During this period of time, a few new maps had appeared, distracting the attention of the various major powers. However, the Book Fragrance Pavilion was still under tremendous pressure when they took down the Death Canyon by themselves. However... They still did it.
In a certain place in the depths of the canyon, thick bones were scattered on the ground. There were too many of them, and the color of the ground could no longer be seen.
The area covered by the bones was extremely vast, hazy and hazy, as if there were no boundaries. Today, the silence of the bones that had been silent for who knew how long was broken. The densely packed players were attacking a huge monster.
This monster was 12 meters tall, as tall as a four-story building. Its length was close to 18 meters, its four hooves were like pillars, its fur was thick, and it had the body of a dog and the head of a lion. Its canine teeth were long and sharp, its tail was long and slender, and at the very end, it split into a trident. It was extremely sharp.
The most shocking thing was that this monster's neck was locked by an iron chain as thick as an adult's thigh. The iron chain was 50 meters long. One of the chains was locked onto the monster's neck, while the other was deep underground. No one knew where it led to.
The guard dog was the name of this monster. Other than that, no information could be found.
A big flag was erected high up, revealing the identity of the players - Book Fragrance Pavilion.
The guard dog was a Boss. This was also the reason why the Book Fragrance Pavilion did not hesitate to shoulder the pressure and wanted to monopolize the Death Canyon. For the Boss, it was worth it no matter how great the price was. For this reason, the Book Fragrance Pavilion's Sect Master personally went out and brought 80% of the Book Fragrance Pavilion's men with him. There were only a few hundred people guarding the base camp. If someone attacked their base camp at this time... It would be broken with just one attack.
The guard dog was very powerful. With a casual slap of its paw, it instantly killed a bunch of players. With a bite, another few players died. The most terrifying part was its magic, the black flames rolled up. The crowd immediately went blank. When faced with such an attack, the Reverend... It could only watch helplessly.
The battle had been going on for more than two hours, and the Book Fragrance Pavilion had lost more than five thousand people. On average, they had lost 2,500 members in an hour.
"Fire the arrows!"
Dense arrows rained down on the dog's body. The arrows collided with the dog's fur, causing sparks and red numbers to appear.
-5-9-5-6-8-7...
None of them exceeded 10. 'Depends on quantity, otherwise, the archer can go home and rest. '
The guard dog turned around and the archer retreated. Warrior, who was in front, moved aside and used the Knight to attack. The mount accelerated at an extremely short distance. At the peak of its speed, the Knight stabbed out with its long spear.
Zzzt! Zzzt!
Its speed was too fast. The tip of the spear pierced through the air, producing an ear-piercing whistle.
'-78-79-81-76... '
The Knight's attack was much more powerful than a bow and a gun, but it was still far from the normal level. It wasn't that the Knight's performance was abnormal, but that the guard dog's defense was too high.
"Blowout Art!"
"Continuous Wind Blade!!"
"Ice Spikes!"
...
Magic fell from the sky and hit the body of the gatekeeper dog. The sound of explosions continued. Sometimes, flames soared to the sky, and sometimes, Frost covered the body of the gatekeeper. All kinds of lights bloomed on different parts of the body of the gatekeeper dog.
-101 - 105-103...
Only the Mage's attack could break through 100.
The guard dog spat out a flame, and the archers who couldn't dodge in time were vaporized. In the blink of an eye, more than 20 people were gone. The guard dog's claws randomly slapped. From time to time, a grey light would flash in the air. It was the assassin who had launched a sneak attack. Unfortunately, he was hit by the guard dog.
Every second, a member of the Book Fragrance Pavilion died. The guard dog's health bar didn't move much. If the battle continued at this pace, even if all the members of the Book Fragrance Pavilion died, they wouldn't be able to kill the dog. However, it was obvious that he wasn't a fool. Since he insisted on fighting, there must be a reason.
The answer was soon revealed.
Four tall towers appeared around the dog. The carpenters and artisans were busy, and the towers were getting higher and higher. Finally, they stopped after reaching the height of the dog. Because the tower was 50 meters away, the guard dog didn't attack the tower.
After the tower was formed, it revealed its true appearance. It was an Arrow Tower. The Arrow Tower would be used to attack cities and defend cities. It was probably the first time it was used to deal with monsters.
After the Arrow Tower was built, it could not be moved. Monsters ran all over the mountains. Using the Arrow Tower to deal with monsters was not realistic at all. However, using it to deal with the gatekeeping dog was just right. The gatekeeping dog was chained up and could not escape.
The engineer quickly loaded the arrows onto the Arrow Tower. The four Arrow Tower were ready and made an OK flag. He immediately gave the order.
"All troops, retreat!"
The Book Fragrance Pavilion's members retreated 50 meters like a tide. When the guard dog saw that there were no enemies nearby, it roared twice and stood on the ground, not knowing what to do. It did not stay alone for long. A few thieves sneakily appeared.
"Taunt!"
Taunt didn't have any offensive properties. Its only function was to attract aggro. The guard dog, who had been struck by the Taunt, was enraged. It opened its mouth and spat out a stream of flames. After the Thief cast Taunt, he retreated as fast as he could. However, he was still a step too slow. The flame rolled up and four Thieves left. When he returned, there was only one left.
The Doggy rushed to the 50-meter border, and the iron chain was stretched taut. It roared crazily and flames kept shooting out. However, the members of the Book Fragrance Pavilion were outside of its attack range. No matter how angry it was, it was useless.
"Shoot!" After giving the order, the worker on the Arrow Tower immediately turned on the mechanism and shot out a rain of arrows.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle...
The arrows pierced through the air and landed on the guard dog's body. The force of the arrows was extremely fierce and far exceeded that of the archers.
'-245 - 256 - 238... '
The Arrow Tower would shoot once every 3 seconds. Each time, it could shoot out 10 arrows at the same time. As long as the arrows did not stop, it could shoot continuously.
The guard dog was furious. It immediately attacked the Arrow Tower. The flame was the furthest attack it could release, but it was one meter away from burning the Arrow Tower. It was not a threat to the Arrow Tower at all.
The guard dog's fire range was 9 meters. Compared to the players' 3 meter range, this distance could be considered abnormal. However, the range of the Arrow Tower was 10 meters, which was its natural enemy.
With that, the Arrow Tower could hit the Gatekeeper's Dog, but the Gatekeeper's Dog could not attack the Arrow Tower. Hence, killing monsters became much easier.
The guard dog was furious. The flame in its mouth was like a machine gun. The continuous flames burned the bones on the ground black. It still didn't touch a single hair of the Arrow Tower. Slowly, the flames it spat out became smaller and smaller. The distance between them was getting closer and closer, and in the end, it couldn't spit out any more flames. After that, it angrily retreated. How could the Book Fragrance Pavilion let it go back so easily? The Thief rushed forward and mocked it. Then, the guard dog roared for a while, but it didn't cause any damage to the Arrow Tower. Instead, his health bar decreased by quite a bit.
The cycle repeated, and the guard dog's HP slowly decreased. However, the number of Arrow Tower in the surroundings had increased. If nothing unexpected happened, the Book Fragrance Pavilion would be able to kill the dog in no time. However, accidents always happened by accident. Dongfang Qingyu, who was looking for the source of the lights, accidentally barged in.
