The Threat Posed by Paralysis Skills!...

This wasn't even the worst part. Wu Yan had encountered monsters with formidable defense and low attack power before; he had even fought enemies with more outrageous defense than the Azure Beetle. But he hadn't expected the Azure Beetle's skill to come with a paralysis effect!

And its very first strike had left Wu Yan paralyzed!

Wu Yan had specifically raised his paralysis resistance before. He had even learned the Paralysis Skill for that purpose. Even the rare paralysis item Kratiel had obtained through great hardship could only paralyze Wu Yan for three seconds, yet a skill used by an ordinary monster in the labyrinth area had managed to paralyze him for nearly three seconds!

If ordinary players came here and got paralyzed, they could do nothing but wait for death!

That was only because they had just entered the labyrinth area, and the Azure Beetle had been very "lucky" to be alone. The monsters they would encounter next would come in groups, with at least two or three at a time!

Just imagine it: a swarm of Azure Beetles circling around you, then using Paralysis Skills one after another, keeping you paralyzed where you stood from beginning to end... until you died!

How terrifying would that be...

Wu Yan and Asuna looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"Looks like we can't afford to get hit so easily when we encounter monsters like this next time..." Wu Yan pursed his lips and touched his chest with lingering fear. Based on what had just happened, even if Asuna hadn't rushed over, he could have recovered from the paralysis in time and dealt the Azure Beetle a crushing blow. But that was only when there was one of them. If he got surrounded...
