Entering the Fray
No matter how difficult the tasks Old Wang had previously undertaken, Old Huang had never offered him any help other than asking him to find some teammates.
Even when dealing with Ping Shen, the Black Shark Pirates Lord, last time, he didn't offer Old Wang any assistance.
Ping Shen's forces at the time were almost equivalent to the reserves of a small Planet, but even so, Old Wang received no help.
But this time, Old Huang gave it to him voluntarily, and it was a Legendary item, equipment that had never been seen before. You can imagine how difficult this mission is.
Although these large guilds are very strong, Old Wang doesn't have a high opinion of them.
"President, we've spotted the Thousand King gang! They just came out of the Teleportation Array; they must be heading back to the city!"
"Ignore them, focus on the monster in front of us!"
"Yes!"
The major guilds spotted them the moment Old Wang arrived on Demon Rat Star, but none of them paid any attention to this 10-person team.
Your Thousand King output is high, but can it surpass that of 10 or 100 people? This level of battle is not something a small team like yours can participate in.
So the battle on Demon Rat Star continued, while Old Wang and the others watched the spectacle from a distance.
"It's not good for us to keep getting blocked by these Demon Rat; it's a waste of our resources."
"Whoever has more AOE damage, clear them out first, then we'll try a focused attack!" asked Light of the Galaxy, the commander of the alliance.
"Let's give it a try!" said Manager Zhang from Mountains and Seas. Although his character was questionable, his gaming skills were quite good.
"Xiao Li, use that thing! Clear out all the Demon Rat around here!"
"Receive!"
After the people from Mountains and Seas received their mission, hundreds of Mecha in the team took off together.
They used special weapons to drive "iron stakes" around the Demon Rat King. Old Wang didn't know the exact material of these stakes, but they were surprisingly unafraid of the Magma.
Those from the major guilds and the likes of Sword of Miracles were all deeply moved upon witnessing this scene.
After the people from Mountains and Seas had set up these things, the man surnamed Zhang activated a device, and the iron stakes immediately reacted.
They unleashed massive amounts of electricity from the devices, instantly transforming the entire battlefield into a silvery sea.
Apart from the Demon Rat Demon Rat King, the other Demon Rat in the swarm were no match for the lightning Force Field and all perished.
Moreover, this lightning field is continuous, and the surrounding Demon Rat cannot replenish it even if they want to.
"Wow, Mountains and Seas is really rich!" everyone exclaimed.
The device they used is called the B20-Lightning Field Launcher, a type of shipborne weapon.
This Force Field is actually only 1/10 of the weapon's effective range in its full form.
The price of B20 is actually acceptable; all the guilds present could afford it.
Even if it's a consumable item, compared to its powerful effects, it doesn't really matter.
However, what they couldn't accept was the price of the launcher for using the Mecha; one launcher cost as much as the entire B20 system.
This is just one launcher. Mecha can only fire one missile using a single launcher. To achieve the current effect, they would need at least hundreds of launchers.
This is already a considerable sum, and what's worse, the transmitter is actually a consumable item; one transmitter can only be used three times.
In the previous wave of events in the Mountains and Seas, if the boss doesn't drop Legendary Weapon, they'll all lose money, and even if they do get Legendary, they might not make a profit.
"Is it worth it, Mountains and Seas?" Song in the Clouds asked after doing some calculations.
"Don't they feel bad about selling their father's land? The company pays for all this stuff, what are they afraid of?" Sister Hua said.
"Not only that, but actually, the guy surnamed Zhang was being held hostage."
Compared to other Mecha guilds, Mountains and Seas's performance is terrible, even though they are currently focused on fighting the boss.
"If he hadn't been there to showcase his abilities, who knows how Mountains and Seas would have been portrayed after this operation!" Lin Qimeng said.
Her analysis was correct; Mountains and Seas's performance this time was indeed quite poor compared to the other guilds.
The other guilds, even the second-tier guild Time Relics, only lost 30% of their members, while their guild has already lost half of its members.
This is a matter of experience and teamwork, and it can only be resolved with time.
This is actually a weakness; if we have it, the Mountains and Seas Guild could really be relegated to a second-rate guild after this operation.
The man surnamed Zhang had obviously figured it out as well, but he didn't want the Mountains and Seas Guild to be relegated to a second-rate status.
This is a fatal blow to his future. Old Wang's incident has already damaged his reputation, and if something like this happens again, he really won't be able to continue working.
That's why he accepted the mission, even at the cost of his life, he was determined to complete it.
They may lack manpower and resources now, but they want to make these people realize the financial strength of Mountains and Seas.
Moreover, he believed that Mountains and Seas used this trump card, they were 100% confident in defeating the Demon Rat King.
However, it turned out he was overthinking it; it wasn't that the other guilds were uncooperative.
The other Mecha guilds, of course, wouldn't let such an opportunity pass. Taking advantage of the absence of the Demon Rat, they immediately began attacking the Demon Rat King's wounds.
The elite attacks of these conferences were at least accurate; their various ranged skills formed a torrent aimed directly at its vital wound.
The Demon Rat King was truly dealt a heavy blow. After fighting against it for so long, it staggered back a few steps for the first time.
But after suffering heavy losses, these major guilds faced a furious counterattack.
Squeak!
After a not-so-serious roar, the Demon Rat King's red markings shone brightly, and the ground beneath its feet began to tremble.
The next moment, countless Lava erupted from the ground. The Lava flow was so wide that even Old Wang and his group were almost affected, let alone the members of the joint guild who were fighting the boss.
Moreover, the Lava eruption didn't end there; soon after, the Lava that rose into the sky fell back down, creating a shower of meteors.
Then came the fiery rain that washed over the earth, and Old Wang and his group, who were watching the spectacle, began to scramble for cover.
After the firestorm, only a handful of members remained from the Federation. Old Wang and the others knew they were about to put on a show.
"But can we really handle this thing?" Yu Xiaoyu asked.
"Don't worry, just watch my performance!" Wang Qianduo said confidently.
The Demon Rat King was severely injured and used such a powerful attack; he's in a very bad state right now.
Wang Qianduo felt he could save the item Old Huang gave him; his Ignore defense and enhanced skills would be enough to kill this Demon Rat King... probably!
"You said the same thing when you went to fight two thousand people one-on-one not long ago!" Yu Xiaoyu mercilessly ripped open Old Wang wound.
Old Wang: "..."
Joking aside, we'll definitely have to go.
Old Wang charged ahead of the Demon Rat King. This kind of boss couldn't be allowed to create enmity between Sword of Miracles and Old Ma; they wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Mecha in a somewhat awkward position at the current stage; before they have truly grown stronger, they struggle to withstand attacks from Demon that are beyond their level.
And with limited remote means of communication, their current situation is extremely awkward.
However, Strength-Type Mech will definitely rise to prominence in the later stages of the game because their attack and health grow together, which is something the other two types of Mecha cannot match.
High attack and high defense are the most annoying, the margin for error is too high, but at this stage it is still the domain of Intelligence- type Mecha.
After Old Wang flew into his attack range, a Wind Thread shot out from his hand, heading straight for the wound on the Demon Rat King's chest.
A Demon Rat leaped high into the air, attempting to block his attack, because the Demon Rat King's powerful attack had completely destroyed the Mountains and Seas's Force Field.
The Demon Rat, blocked by the electricity, returned to the battlefield once again. Moreover, due to the large number of deaths among the Player from the Allied Guild, and with no one clearing them out, Demon Rat numbers were even greater than before.
The Demon Rat successfully blocked Old Wang's attack, but Old Wang's Wind Thread pierced through it, still causing damage to the Demon Rat King.
-4806
-2661
After the two damage numbers appeared, everyone in the arena stared wide-eyed.
Old Wang was shocked because he knew his skill's resistance would be significantly reduced after passing through a target, but wasn't a reduction of more than half abnormal? Just how much resistance did this Demon Rat King have?
The others were shocked by the damage he inflicted; none of the members from the major guilds present had dealt more than a thousand damage to the Demon Rat King.
How could they not be shocked by the sudden appearance of 2000+ damage?
And this damage was even weakened by the Demon Rat; how did this person manage to do that?
