"I've shared the mission with everyone, so feel free to share your thoughts!"
After finding a tavern and sitting down, Wang Qian Duo shared the mission with the group and said.
"It's troublesome, but the reward must be substantial!"
Wang Ji was the one who spoke. He was a lone wolf strategy expert in other games and was heavily recruited by Shan Hai after the Mecha Era began.
"The difficult part now isn't killing the boss, but how to precisely snatch it."
The others nodded upon hearing this, they knew this too.
"Would hiring people to clear the area work? ...No, that would affect Shan Hai's reputation!"
Lin Qi Meng dismissed her own idea, leaving everyone speechless. As expected of someone from a major corporation, she actually thought of clearing the area.
One must know that even in the past, every time Mark Bei refreshed, there would be thousands of people present.
Now, tens of thousands of people might be considered a small crowd.
And she gave up not because of the crowd, but because of the impact on the guild's reputation.
One had to admit, Shan Hai was truly wealthy.
"Clearing the area is definitely out. Actually, I have an item that might help, but I can't quite control it."
Seeing that everyone was at a loss, Wang Qian Duo gritted his teeth and sent an item's information to the chat channel.
Bomb (Perfect) (Bound): After igniting the fuse (1 second), throw it at the target. Deals 10000 True Damage to targets within range.
This item was a paid item that Wang Qian Duo received for reaching VIP 11. There were only 5 of them.
Although it was a fuse bomb that had been obsolete for who knows how many years, its effect was simple and direct.
This item could be considered a divine artifact for snatching bosses, but it wasn't easy to use.
Ten thousand health points seemed like a lot, but it depended on the situation.
In his opinion, with tens of thousands of people attacking the boss, ten thousand health points would disappear in an instant.
If you were to ignite this at ten thousand health, by the time the one-second fuse was up, the boss would have died several times over.
Therefore, this item required prediction, but how could a novice like Wang Qian Duo predict it? Moreover, this was a bound item and couldn't be traded, so others couldn't help him.
"Old Wang, you have such a good item and you're only showing it now!"
"This must be an item for this mission!"
"You were trying to save it, you sly dog!"
"This does make things a lot easier!"
As soon as Wang Qian Duo took out the item, the several experts immediately chimed in.
"Is this item that important? The boss's ten thousand health won't last long, will it?" Wang Qian Duo asked doubtfully.
Is asking when you don't know a good virtue!
"You clearly didn't do your homework. The boss's initial ten thousand health won't last long.
But world bosses have a special mechanism: when their health drops to a certain level, they gain a damage reduction buff.
The lower the health, the higher the damage reduction. The last tens of thousands of health points can last a very long time."
Sister Cat explained to Wang Qian Duo, and only then did Wang Qian Duo remember this game mechanic.
This game was too realistic; it always felt like reality.
"That's right, 10000 True Damage. As long as Old Wang survives until the end, this mission will be no problem," Sword of Miracles said.
"It is indeed much simpler, but the kill and loot rights for world bosses still require meeting one more condition, right?" Wang Ji said, looking at the group who were all smiling as if the mission was secured.
"You mean the damage output needs to be in the top 30%? You don't need to worry about that at all!
The only problem now is keeping Old Wang alive, and that will depend on our performance.
Mark Bei spawns on Planet 1 in Star Domain 1, so we don't have to worry about PK, which saves a lot of trouble!"
Sister Cat said with a smile. She wasn't worried about Wang Qian Duo's damage output at all.
If it were in the past, with Wang Qian Duo's low level, snatching the top 30% might have been a bit strenuous.
Now, many people would help him get there!
For world boss kills in the Mecha World, as long as players participate, they will all receive rewards.
However, to pick up the loot, two conditions must be met. The most important, of course, is the final blow.
Additionally, the person who delivers the final blow must have their damage output in the top 30% of the rankings to be eligible.
If this condition is not met, the kill and loot rights will go to the team with the highest damage output.
"Don't worry?"
→_→
Lin Qi Meng found herself unable to understand her capable subordinate. Was this still the person she knew?
"I just got lucky and got a powerful weapon from a hidden quest!"
Seeing Lin Qimeng's doubtful gaze, Wang Qiansuo inexplicably explained.
He didn't know why he explained, he just did.
After the group planned, at Sister Cat's suggestion, they headed to the boss spawn point on Planet 1 in Starfield 1 much earlier than planned.
"Everyone can fly, right?" Lin Qimeng asked after summoning her mecha.
Miracle Sword and the others, along with the two people she brought, were still in their initial mechas as they hadn't reached level ten. Their mechas' propulsion systems weren't very obvious.
Everyone nodded in unison, indicating they could all fly.
"Your mecha is a special evolved type, Dragon Princess?" Sister Cat's expression changed as she saw Lin Qimeng's mecha.
Wang Qiansuo also looked over curiously at her words. He saw that Lin Qimeng's mecha was very slender compared to normal mechas, entirely snow-white and adorned with flame patterns.
Its head had soft angles and a feminine design, with two small horns protruding like those of a young dragon.
Simultaneously, behind the mecha, a black Tang dao, almost as tall as the mecha itself, floated. A hovering ring circled its guard.
This evolved mecha was named Dragon Princess, a rare fire-element mecha on the same level as the Dragon Hunter's previous evolution, Dragon Chaser.
Both were evolved forms of agile mechas. The Dragon Princess mecha was renowned for its perfect appearance and incredible burst power.
Furthermore, the Dragon Princess mecha was one of the few rare mechas whose evolution conditions were publicly disclosed by the game system.
The requirement to evolve an Agile Type II mecha into a Dragon Princess was simple, yet difficult for many.
It was simple because the Dragon Princess mecha only required adding special materials during mecha evolution: Perfect grade Dragon Blood and materials from some star beasts of the dragon race.
The difficulty lay precisely there. Dragons, in any world, were rare and powerful. The Dragon Princess mecha required pure-blooded dragons.
In reality, these items weren't prohibitively expensive. Compared to the powerful abilities of the Dragon Princess mecha, spending some money was a small price to pay.
Especially for women, who wouldn't care about such things? Cool and powerful, it hit their weakness perfectly.
However, dragon race materials couldn't be bought with money alone, and not everyone could pass the subsequent advancement assessment.
Without professional-level strength, don't even think about it!
In short, those who could use the Dragon Princess mecha were not only wealthy but also possessed professional-level strength.
And Lin Qimeng's appearance, even with a 20% deduction, was still that of a beauty. Such a person was practically a winner in life, a perfect template!
"Yes, the Dragon Princess evolved type. It took me a year to gather all the materials for evolution, otherwise, I wouldn't still be level ten."
Lin Qimeng said with a smile. She was among the first batch of players who entered the game when it launched.
Hearing her answer, everyone was stunned!
To pursue a rare mecha, she spent a whole year.
The key was that mechas could now be brought into reality, so her year was completely worth it.
Truly, hard work pays off! Maybe he's the real protagonist?
"Amazing!" Wang Qiansuo said sincerely.
"You flatter me! I advise you to also choose a mecha evolution with potential. This thing determines your future!"
"I will!"
Since everyone could fly, they took off together and headed towards the world boss Markbei's location.
"Your flying skills are much better than when you first started running!"
Sister Cat said as they flew towards their destination, observing Wang Qiansuo flying skillfully.
She had initially thought they would have to wait for him for a long time given his level.
What a waste of her effort to ask everyone to leave so much earlier; it seemed she worried for nothing.
"You're kidding! I've practiced flying professionally!" Wang Qiansuo said without any politeness.
Lin Qimeng: "You're amazing! But Old Wang, how did you learn your beginner's mission? We saw you kneeling at the mecha summoning station for a long time back then!"
Yun Zhongge: "Oh! So that popular meme online these past two days was you! I thought that mecha looked so familiar!"
Wang Qiansuo: "...If we don't bring this up, we're still good friends..."
"Hahahaha!"
