Clearing the Glacier Secret Realm
The people of Blue Star fight bosses in a very simple and brutal way. If they can defeat a boss, they will definitely split up and fight it separately, without any understanding of how to control its health.
The Balance gameplay in the third level of the secret realm is indeed a gameplay mode that requires careful management of health.
The words "Good and Evil" and "evil" are randomly generated. "Good" represents healing for all allies, while "evil" represents damage to all allies.
The tilt of the Balance is calculated based on the BOSS's HP.
For every 10% reduction in the BOSS's health, the Balance will tilt once. The side with more BOSS health will sink, and the side that rises will consume the Good and Evil above the Balance.
The mechanics of this level aren't difficult. First, it depends on luck; if everything is good, it'll be very easy, but if everything is evil, it will be much more difficult. Second, there's a health limit, so try to distribute your Good and Evil well.
If it's an evil attack, let the side with the better health or invincibility attack it; if it's a good attack, let the side with the worse health attack it, or balance the health so both sides can attack it together.
Zhou He found that Xiao Fan's analysis was similar to what he had guessed, but Xiao Fan's analysis was more detailed, and the strategy of controlling health points made him instantly realize the truth.
However, things got completely chaotic towards the end. What are the patterns after the changes?
Before Zhou He could ask, Xiao Fan had already given the answer.
The difference in health between the two bosses cannot exceed 5%. Otherwise, the boss will trigger two mechanics.
That is, if the first group of bosses has 75% health and the second group of bosses has 70% health.
The 70-mechanism will trigger once, and it will trigger again when a group of bosses has 70% of their health remaining.
Blood volume control needs to be very strict.
When the difference in health between the two bosses is less than 1%, the Balance will balance, which is why both sides take damage in the end.
Therefore, in the third stage, it is necessary to control the health of both bosses very precisely, which requires good coordination between the commanders of both sides.
After all, Cloud Sea doesn't have an auxiliary panel; it can only rely on the commander's perception and calculation.
Moreover, this kind of health-manipulation mechanism usually has a berserk mode.
The boss won't let players slowly chip away at its damage output.
Xiao Fan also shared this part of the analysis with Zhou He.
As usual, he focused on analysis and chose to leave it to Zhou He and his team.
"What is a rampage?" Zhou He asked.
"If you don't defeat the BOSS within the allotted time, the BOSS's difficulty will increase dramatically," Xiao Fan explained.
Zhou He remained silent.
If it's just about dealing damage, they can indeed slowly and precisely calculate the damage.
But once the berserk mechanism that Xiao Fan mentioned is added, the difficulty will be completely different.
Achieving maximum damage output while simultaneously controlling damage output places extremely high demands on the overall team composition.
Fortunately, they were all elites, and the skill gap between their teams wasn't too large. As long as Jian Qingfeng controlled the damage output slightly, the overall damage output could be kept balanced.
No, the output in this level is not balanced yet.
Zhou He pressed his temples.
This secret realm is so complicated and difficult.
However, to be fair...
It seems that only dungeons like these are truly interesting.
The thrill of leading the team to defeat a boss surpasses the satisfaction of leading them through any dungeon they've ever conquered.
If he could have a secret realm Resurrection Art, Zhou He would be more willing to challenge such a high-difficulty secret realm. The feeling of painstaking planning, meticulous command, extreme operation, shouting until the whole team is wiped out is really great.
Zhou He sent the details of the mechanism to everyone.
To clear the level, the coordination between the two commanders is still crucial.
Zhou He and Jian Qingfeng discussed it for a long time.
In the end, they decided to follow the fighting strategy sent by Xiao Fan.
If it's evil, then Zhou He, the invincible one, will eat it. If it's good, then both sides will eat it together, or the one in poor condition will eat it.
The damage output should be directed according to the health of the two bosses.
"You have one extra life. If you can't win, you'll have to wait seven days and come back."
They already understand the BOSS's mechanics, so there's no need to make unnecessary sacrifices.
"Start the fight! Start the fight!"
With excellent teamwork, the initial stages went very smoothly.
As long as Jian Qingfeng doesn't unleash excessive damage, the difference in health between the two bosses won't be significant. The balance will return once the bosses switch roles.
After everyone discovered the elimination mechanism, the third level wasn't actually that difficult.
With a little care and by controlling the boss's health, it's not difficult.
Moreover, they were incredibly lucky this time, only encountering two evil beings while the rest were good.
Furthermore, the Wolf Poison mechanic hasn't been implemented yet!
The system is rigorous; without Antidote, this mechanism won't be activated.
"Any problem encountered in the secret realm has a solution," Zhou He summarized.
When both bosses had only 2.3% health left, things started to go wrong.
The words "Good and Good and Evil" above the Balance spun rapidly, finally revealing the word "Evil".
Two large groups of attacks landed directly, but fortunately, their health was at a healthy level beforehand.
Zhou He immediately realized that this was the "rampage" that Xiao Fan had mentioned.
Their low health still affected their damage output speed.
"Attack! Attack now!"
Zhou He roared.
According to Xiao Fan, once the BOSS goes berserk, you either kill it as quickly as possible or wait to die.
Jian Qingfeng also noticed something was wrong and immediately activated his Heaven-Tier Skill.
Both sides are facing a tense situation.
The boss only has so little health left. If we die to it, I'll be upset for at least a week.
Various bursts of damage landed on the BOSS, causing its health to drop rapidly.
But the two words above my head started flashing again: Evil.
Zhou He guessed that after the BOSS went berserk, it probably wouldn't produce any benevolent characters.
Two more bursts of damage landed. Zhou He activated invincibility, while four of Jian Qingfeng's men died instantly, but fortunately, they had extra lives.
Seeing that the BOSS's health was down to only 2%, we didn't care about those who had died; we just revived them and went in to beat them up.
Finally, before the two words could finish flashing, Jian Qingfeng's side killed the BOSS.
One minute later, Zhou He's team also successfully defeated the BOSS.
The corpses of the two bosses vanished from their original positions, and the words "Good and Evil" above the Balance disappeared as well.
Whew~
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Then came excitement, an indescribable excitement.
They finally beat the game!
The Glacier Secret Realm is indeed difficult, but the sense of satisfaction after clearing it is irreplaceable by any other secret realm.
At this moment, other secret realms seemed like children sitting at the same table as them.
The Glacier Secret Realm —this is the kind of secret realm that high-level players should be conquering!
Difficulties? I've already forgotten about them!
Besides, what's so difficult about it? What's the point of a secret realm if it's not difficult?
All fatigue vanished, and everyone's faces were filled with excitement.
Zhou He took a deep breath.
"Finally, we won."
Thinking of the Warrior who died while exploring this secret realm, Zhou He felt a mix of emotions.
"If only I had met Xiao Fan sooner."
