What Exactly Was He Trying to Do?
"How so?"
Jian Qingfeng stared wide-eyed at the four phenomena before him.
In the past, the options would disappear after he made a choice, but this time, the options were still there after he made his choice.
What's going on?
Seeing this, Zhou He subconsciously looked at Xiao Fan and asked.
"Could I have guessed wrong? If the reason the options in the last round became larger wasn't evolution, then what was it?"
Xiao Fan clearly hadn't expected this to happen.
Just as he was in a daze, the four options suddenly began to turn transparent, as if they would disappear in the next second.
"There's a time limit for this selection!"
Realizing this, Xiao Fan dared not think any further.
Seeing the Heart-Clearing Mantra next to the Celestial Master Seal, Xiao Fan decisively spoke it.
"Choose another one, choose the one with the narration of your Heart-Clearing Mantra."
Jian Qingfeng was puzzled, but his hands moved quickly, and he turned around and chose the Heart-Clearing Mantra again.
When he finished making his selection, all the options immediately disappeared.
Seeing this, everyone finally understood that in the final round, they could choose two skills to upgrade.
That feels much better!
Ye Bugu didn't expect that the Gold Book Player would be prioritized for upgrading in the last round. He originally thought that Xiao Fan would let the players with the Nether and Ghost Eye skills upgrade first.
"The master is still too amazing, he immediately knew that our skills were more useful." Ye Bugu said, not forgetting to glance at Judge Young Master.
Although everyone cooperated well in battle, they all wanted to upgrade their skills before other players.
To Ye Bugu's surprise, the Judge Young Master showed no dissatisfaction whatsoever about their skills leveling up first.
"Am I being narrow-minded?" Ye Bugu couldn't help but doubt himself upon seeing this.
"No way! How can I let this lecherous guy outdo me! The master told us to level up first, so we have to make the most of that."
Ye Bugu's mindset has changed.
After Jian Qingfeng made his choice, all the players suddenly felt the air around them drop several degrees, a chilling sensation.
"Is a new monster about to appear?" Zhou He stared intently ahead.
Seeing that no new kill counts were appearing ahead, Xiao Fan shook his head. "The BOSS is probably coming."
After saying that, he directed the Gold Fist Player behind him. "Don't stop placing wards. If you have extra wards, give a few to the Gold Book Player in the front row."
"Yes, Commander!" Judge Young Master immediately began adjusting the order and targets of the Gold Fist Player's vision.
Now, the Gold Fist Player are used to following Judge Young Master's commands. Mainly because there are too many people, they sometimes can't see Xiao Fan's commands, and Judge Young Master has never made a mistake in conveying them.
After Xiao Fan finished speaking, he instructed Ye Bugu to prioritize the players with the quickest reactions.
Monsters will have animations when they use skills, and if Gold Book Player can see these animations, they can react faster.
Just as Xiao Fan finished making his deployment, observant players saw three enormous white Specter floating towards them.
Name: Wandering Soul (BOSS)
Level: 50
Health: 22000/22000
"Attack."
As soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, golden patterns flew out from the Gold Seal and struck the BOSS.
Upon seeing three bosses appear at once, Xiao Fan quickly adjusted the players' attack targets.
The three bosses cannot have the same amount of health.
Because bosses usually have skill mechanics that are released when the boss's health reaches a certain point.
If all three bosses have the same amount of health, once a skill mechanic is activated, they will be attacked by all three bosses' skills at once.
That would be difficult.
Seeing that the BOSS was still far away, Xiao Fan immediately ordered, "All Gold Seal Player, attack the BOSS in the middle!"
Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this.
If we attack the middle boss, what about the two side bosses? Should we just ignore them?
That won't do!
This boss is no pushover. If it charges into a group of players at full health and Undying quickly, people will really die!
Yu Tianqing immediately wanted to stand up and object.
But remembering how she had always been persuaded to back down every time she stepped forward, she opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
Yu Tianqing turned her gaze to Zhou He and Jian Qingfeng, wanting to see the two leaders' reactions.
However, she discovered that the two of them were already standing in the middle, and the attacks were always directed at the middle BOSS, so Xiao Fan's orders had no effect on them.
"This commander is quite capable; he must have his reasons for doing this." Yu Tianqing silently turned back and continued the attack.
The other Gold Seal Player only hesitated for a second before quickly following Xiao Fan's instructions to attack the target.
Although this command may seem unreasonable, now is not the time to oppose it.
The boss in the middle quickly dropped to 20,000 health.
At this point, Xiao Fan made another adjustment. "Players in the middle and on the right, attack the right-side BOSS; players on the left, attack the middle BOSS."
This adjustment left all players completely bewildered.
"What exactly does Xiao Fan mean by this?"
Jian Qingfeng and Zhou He were puzzled. But since Xiao Fan was in command, they couldn't speak up, otherwise what if other players followed their example?
Since they chose Xiao Fan as commander, they had to trust him completely.
Seeing that the two leaders had no objections, the other players simply followed orders.
When the boss on the right had its health reduced to about 21,000, the boss in the middle had about 19,500 health, and the boss on the left had about 21,800 health.
Xiao Fan, sensing the situation was about right, quickly adjusted his strategy. "Now, players on the right attack the right-side BOSS, players on the left attack the left-side BOSS, and players in the middle attack the middle BOSS."
Seeing that Xiao Fan had recovered, all the players couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
That makes more sense!
"What exactly did the commander mean by that stunt just now?"
Everyone had this question in their mind.
Why don't they just play normally? What was the point of that last move?
"This kid probably hasn't been in command before and wants to experience commanding so many people here, right?"
Yu Tianqing thought to herself secretly.
Soon the middle boss's health will drop to 80%.
This is a crucial juncture; regardless of whether the BOSS triggers any mechanics, Xiao Fan should give a reminder.
"Gold Book, Gold Pen Player, get ready!"
The Night Blade Sect and Justice Alliance Sect players behind them immediately straightened their backs.
"Is it their turn yet? We can't see anything."
"Is there any hint? How did the commander know to use them?"
Even the Gold Seal Player were completely baffled; they had been attacking the monsters the whole time, and they hadn't seen the BOSS use any skills.
Where is this command being directed?
But the next second, players with eyes saw that as soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, the Wandering Soul BOSS in the middle suddenly rose one meter, and then more than a dozen Black Fog floated from his chest and came towards the players.
"Holy crap, they actually used a skill!"
The people of the Black Fog Night Blade Sect are all too familiar; it's the fear of Spirit Body.
"Gold Book Player, prepare the Heart-Clearing Mantra."
The Black Fog drifted very fast and randomly selected players to be gripped by fear.
However, the Gold Book Player reacted quickly, keeping an eye on the Black Fog and using their skills as soon as it landed on a player's head.
Xiao Fan breathed a sigh of relief. The beginning of the Dungeon wasn't difficult, especially after understanding the rules. As long as he was careful, nothing would go wrong.
The players continued their attack, and soon the boss on the right was also reduced to 80% health, triggering the same fear skill.
The Gold Book Player quickly dispelled the fear.
Next, the boss on the left side reached 80% health and used the fear skill again.
At this point, the smarter players finally realized the intention behind Xiao Fan's actions.
"Holy crap, Xiao Fan's command skills are even better than I imagined!"
Zhou He was shocked.
He knew before that Xiao Fan might be very good at commanding, but that was only reflected in his analysis of Dungeon.
But after actually hearing Xiao Fan's commands this time, Zhou He suddenly realized...
He underestimated Xiao Fan!
That's incredible! Keep in mind this is their first time running this Dungeon, without any guides or prior experience.
Xiao Fan not only guessed the subsequent mechanism, but also prepared a countermeasure in advance.
I can't believe a novice player could do this.
