Through several clues, Dongfang Mingxing and the others finally realized that super experts such as Long Teng Tian Xia had joined Ye Luo and his group. They naturally concluded that Ye Luo and his group were overall stronger than their own team, meaning they might not be able to secure the Instance First Kill. With that realization, Dongfang Shitian and his group wore grave expressions.
Dongfang Shitian and his group naturally knew what the consequences would be if Ye Luo and his group claimed the Instance First Kill, especially after they had been baited into consuming two or three hundred Group Blessing Scrolls—after that, they would likely have almost no chance of occupying any guild territories belonging to the Misty Pavilion alliance. All that awaited them would be suppression, or even being driven out of the game.
Fortunately, Dongfang Shitian and his group still held a 2% advantage in mission progress at this point. That gave them some hope of securing the Instance First Kill, especially since they still had quite a few trump cards in reserve.
Just as Ban Ye Shu and the others had analyzed, Dongfang Shitian and his group could not possibly give up on obtaining the Instance First Kill, especially when they still had a certain chance of doing so.
"What we need to do now is speed up our mission progress as much as possible," Dongfang Xiaotian said in a deep voice. As he spoke, he looked at everyone. "Fortunately, we still have many ways to increase our damage output, such as using powerful, large-scale Area of Effect Skills, activating ultimates, or even using Combination Equipment Awakened Skills. Combination Equipment Awakened Skills in particular won't be needed much when dealing with the final BOSS, so we can use two or three of them in advance.
