Yunjianyue refused to give up.
Her eyes were fixed on the Phoenix Egg, which stood twice a person's height. The hatching progress bar above it was already more than halfway full...
"I heard someone in Kyoto hatched a pet."
"The first player a pet sees after hatching becomes its owner..."
"If I leave..."
Yunjianyue looked somewhat lost.
She was already considered very powerful in Sea City, but she still wanted to become stronger.
How tempting was a powerful phoenix pet to a Blazing Elementalist like her?
"Forget it. We're leaving!"
Her younger brother, Shan Shang Xue, watched the greater affix gauge progress bars above everyone's heads, his eyelids twitching wildly.
Originally, a team of sixty had been guarding this place.
But after that boss arrived, the auras of several greater affixes passed straight through the Defensive Barrier and covered the entire Hideout!
More than ten people had fled outright.
The remaining forty-odd people were all on edge. They were Yunjianyue's loyal subordinates, so they hadn't abandoned her and run...
But Shan Shang Xue couldn't let this continue.
The white-haired young man pulled his older sister, Yunjianyue, along and led the other forty-odd people quickly out of the core area of the Blazing Fountain Hideout.
Above their heads, two greater affix gauges had already reached 100%, putting them into the Wither and Corruption states.
Wither Gauge: All damage reduced by 99% upon reaching 100%! Corruption Gauge: Unable to receive any buffs upon reaching 100%!
These two greater affix gauges built up relatively quickly.
The Chaos and Stripping affixes, meanwhile, were still building up.
Since Chaos was a negative affix that caused prolonged loss of control, it didn't build up particularly quickly, just like Nightmare and Murmurs.
Especially when relying on the greater affix aura alone, it was much slower
