Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God - Chapter 1949

Chapter 1949: 1949

Chapter 1949 – Tier Master

Everyone felt stifled as they watched the quiet Demonkin in the middle of the dark cavern with grim expressions .

[Demonkin King Auva] (Mythic, Tier Master)

Level 68

HP 600,000,000/600,000,000

“What kind of monster is that? How is it giving off such intense pressure?”

“Is that really a Tier 4 monster? I can already feel death loom over me just by looking at it Why do I feel like I can’t even hit it even though it’s just standing there?”

“Huh? What does Tier Master mean?”

Although none of them knew what a Tier Master was, after a long time fighting in God’s Domain, they had developed their instincts . Those instincts screamed a warning; if they set foot in this cavern, they’d get a one-way trip to hell .

Naturally, Shi Feng wasn’t particularly surprised by his team’s reaction . After all, their instincts were correct . If they entered Auva’s cavern carelessly, their deaths would be guaranteed!

The concept of a Tier Master was still foreign to current players . It was akin to a king among those of the same tier, but unlike ordinary Archaic Species or Dragons, a Tier Master’s strength didn’t originate from extraordinary Attributes . Rather, it came from the monster’s extraordinary combat standards .

Dealing with Tier Masters was far more difficult than dealing with Archaic Species that had high Attributes . A fight against a Tier Master was a test of players’ combat standards . If players’ combat standards were lacking, they would die instantly . In comparison, players would have a fighting chance against an Archaic Species even if they were at a disadvantage in terms of Attributes .

Moreover, when raiding Tier Masters, players would not be able to use their numerical advantage . In fact, raiding a Tier Master with more players than necessary would only increase the raid difficulty . Tier Masters were capable of summoning an army of monsters, and they would summon more monsters based on the number of players participating in the raid .

The summoned monsters might not have high Attributes, but even the weakest combat standards would be at the Trial Tower’s third floor . This was why Tier Masters were so fearsome .

Normally, Tier Masters only spawned after Level 100 . Shi Feng had never considered that the Boss guarding Kama Island’s Manatite vein would be a Tier Master…

“Guild Leader, this Boss is giving off a very dangerous feeling . We have quite a few players with us . Should we send some players in to test the waters?” Aqua Rose suggested .

When dealing with unknown Bosses, particularly Field Bosses, teams usually dispatched a small group to test the Boss’s abilities and search for appropriate countermeasures to avoid excessive losses . After all, dying in the field meant losing a full level . Even when resurrected, players still lost half a level of EXP .

“Forget it . Compile a list of data on every member of the team . I’m going to reform a 100-man raid team,” Shi Feng said, shaking his head .

There was no point in probing a Tier Master . Such Bosses were straightforward . Unlike other Bosses, which used many strange Skills and Spells, a Tier Master would only use normal attacks and the occasional team-wipe move . If players could keep up with the Boss’s combat standards, they could defeat it . If they couldn’t keep up, it didn’t matter what strategies they employed; they’d all die .

Moreover, the 500 Tier 2 players present were all true experts in the Guild . Whether they lost half a level or a full level, it would deal a significant blow to Zero Wing . They’d be better off going all-out on their first try .

Following which, Aqua Rose gathered the details on the 500-man team and sent the information to Shi Feng . She had collected data on players’ Basic Attributes, weapons, equipment, and current progress in the Trial Tower . After planning for about half an hour, Shi Feng finally decided on the 100 members that would take part in the raid .

The weakest of the players he had selected had already reached the late-stage of the Trial Tower’s sixth floor . They would have no problems facing the Tier Master’s summoned mobs in a one-on-one .

“Alright, Cola, start the raid!” Shi Feng commanded once everyone had their tasks .

Cola nodded seriously . Although he was nervous, he willed himself to enter the cavern .

The moment Cola stepped into the cavern, a bright light illuminated the space . Rather than a cavern, this place looked like an ancient temple . Faded murals covered the cavern walls, and stone pillars stood at intervals, supporting the cavern’s vast ceiling . Although severely damaged, magic arrays were visible on the stone ground .

Once Cola was within a certain range, the Demonkin King opened its eyes . The moment Auva’s crimson eyes were revealed, Cola felt as if he had plunged into an icy hell as a chill seeped into his bones . Unlike other monsters, whose auras contained death and violence, Auva’s aura was calm and indifferent .

Before Cola could overcome the frosty sensation, Auva moved . Unlike other monsters they had faced, Auva wasn’t lightning fast . They could all follow every single movement with their eyes, but despite the several hundred yards between the Boss and Cola, each of Auva’s steps rapidly devoured the distance .

“Crap! This monster’s an expert!” Cola had an incredibly bad feeling as he watched Auva approach . Hurriedly, he raised Titan Guard to defend himself .

Dang!

A crisp, metallic clang reached everyone’s ears as dazzling sparks flew from Cola’s Titan Guard . Cola stumbled back several steps before stabilizing himself . However, before he could catch his breath, another sword descended on him . This time, Cola instinctively raised his shield to block the attack .

As they watched Cola receive a series of attacks from Auva, everyone could not help but gasp . Although Cola only lost around 13,000 HP from each attack, the Tier Master continued to push him back . In the battle between the expert MT and the Guardian Boss, Cola was at a complete disadvantage . He had no opportunities to launch a counterattack; he could only defend himself . If he diverted his focus in the slightest, Auva’s blade would likely find its mark .

When the rest of the 100-man team came within 100 yards of Auva, the Demonkin King bellowed with anger . Multiple Demonkin then began to rise from the ground, ranging between Level 64 and 66 . By the time they stopped emerging, a total of 200 Demonkin stood before the players . Among them, the weakest was a Chieftain, while the strongest was a Lord .

At first, Zero Wing’s members paid little attention to these monsters due to their low ranks, but after clashing with them, these expert players were stunned .

These Demonkin commanded incredibly high combat standards . The weakest Demonkin could easily reach the Trial Tower’s third floor, while a few Lord ranked Demonkin could reach the fifth floor, the publicly acknowledged expert standard in God’s Domain right now .

Of course, Demonkin’s Attributes were already higher than players . Combined with expert combat standards, the Lord ranked Demonkins instantly slew several Tier 2 players . Fortunately, Violet Cloud managed to rescue some of them in time, reducing the number of casualties .

Thank goodness . It seems this Demonkin King is only at the late-stage, fifth-floor standard . Defeating it shouldn’t be a problem . After watching Cola fight Auva for some time, Shi Feng had a rough estimate of the Guardian Boss’s combat standard, and he could not help but breathe out a sigh of relief .

Not all Tier Masters were equal . The weakest among them were close to reaching the Trial Tower’s sixth floor; in other words, the fifth floor’s late stage . In a large Guild, a player with such a combat standard would be considered a relatively strong expert . As for the stronger Tier Masters, some had even reached the Void Realm .

Fortunately, Auva was one of the weakest Tier Masters . Had it been slightly stronger, Cola would’ve died instantly even if he met the Attribute requirements for this raid .

The only reason Auva was able to suppress Cola was its Mythic ranked Attributes . Although Cola’s life dangled off the side of a cliff, Auva couldn’t push the MT any farther . Furthermore, Cola could activate his Berserk Skill to bridge the gap between them .

Under Shi Feng’s command, Cola activated his Berserk Skill, instantly decreasing the raid’s difficulty . Meanwhile, with Turtledove and Ye Wumian tanking most of the mobs, the rest of the team was free to attack the Demonkin King, decimating its HP .

90%… 70%… 50%…

When Auva only had 1% of its HP remaining, Shi Feng activated Divine Providence and finished the Demonkin King off with Shadow Blade and Lightning Slash . As soon as the Guardian Boss fell, a system notification reached everyone’s ears .
