“Dao Guang and the others seemed to take some antidote potions when they left,” Guo Huai recalled.

“How many bottles of Master-level antidote potions did they take?” Nie Yan asked. Ordinary antidote potions were useless; at least Master-level ones were needed to be effective.

“It seemed like they took two bottles.”

Since Diao Diao De Nan Nan equipped the Necklace of Longing, she had crafted a large number of Master-level potions, including many Master-level antidote potions. Before Brilliant Knife Edge and the others went to the Poison Mist Valley, they were equipped with Master-level potions, but the quantity was relatively small. This stuff was too rare; no one was willing to waste it. They thought two bottles would be enough.

“Two bottles are far from enough,” Nie Yan shook his head. He had a deep understanding of the power of the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion in the Poison Mist Valley from his previous life. Back then, he followed a team of a thousand people there, and in the end, they were undoubtedly wiped out, with only a few people surviving.

At that time, the team had over a thousand people in total, more than a hundred of whom had reached level 100 or higher, and the rest were at least level 90 or higher. There were no top-tier professional players. The highest-level player seemed to be a Great Swordsman at level 130, equipped with a large number of scrolls and potions. Their supplies were very complete, but they were still wiped out without any suspense. Comparing them to that team, Brilliant Knife Edge and the others were in danger.

That Poison Mist Giant Scorpion could only be fought if everyone was above level 100!

“How many bottles of potions do we have left there?” Nie Yan asked.

“There are about nine bottles left.”

Only nine bottles; that was not enough at all! Nie Yan frowned and said, “Bring them all over and send them to the teleportation array!”

“Okay,” Guo Huai said, instructing his subordinates to retrieve the antidote potions from the Starry Night Potion Shop and send them to the teleportation array as quickly as possible.

Nie Yan was already waiting there. He took the nine bottles of Master-level antidote potions, put them in his backpack, teleported to Tarrak Town, left the town, mounted the Darkwing Dragon, and flew straight there.

To go to Poison Mist Valley, one usually had to teleport to Link Town and then travel through the wilderness for about an hour to reach it. Nie Yan took a shortcut. The northern part of Tarrak Town was a range of mountains. An ordinary player might take days to cross it and reach Poison Mist Valley, but the rugged mountain road was nothing to Nie Yan, because he was going through the air.

At the speed of the Darkwing Dragon, he estimated that he would arrive in at most three minutes.

Just as Nie Yan was rushing towards Poison Mist Valley, Brilliant Knife Edge, Water Color Smoker, and others were leading their team, facing a giant scorpion.

This scorpion was enormous, its entire body covered in black, metallic-lustered armor, like a giant tank. It had a pair of huge pincers in front, and a long tail held high, with a sharp barb at the end.

Level 110 Lord, 5 million health!

The Poison Mist Giant Scorpion was too strong; Brilliant Knife Edge and the others were locked in a bitter battle.

More than twenty Shield Warriors, led by Brilliant Knife Edge, held off the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion. Dozens of corpses already lay around the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion. Six or seven hundred mages on the outside continuously waved their staffs, and a barrage of magical attacks landed on the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion, but each spell only caused a hundred or two points of damage. The damage output was really poor. If Brilliant Knife Edge hadn’t been equipped with level 100 gear, with strong enough defense, they would have been wiped out long ago.

Five or six minutes later, the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion’s health was visibly dropping below 25%.

“Everyone be careful, use control skills! It’s susceptible to control!”

Brilliant Knife Edge shouted. Several thieves quickly pounced on the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion. Their control skills caused the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion to pause for a few seconds, but quickly, the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion woke up and opened its mouth.

“Everyone be careful!” Brilliant Knife Edge shouted, noticing that something was wrong.

“It’s poison mist again!”

“Retreat!”

“Holy Knights, purify quickly!”

The Poison Mist Giant Scorpion suddenly opened its mouth and spewed a thick black poison mist, which quickly spread out.

The warriors next to it quickly retreated, and Brilliant Knife Edge quickly drank a bottle of Master-level antidote potion. The effect of a Master-level potion was very strong. As for Advanced antidote potions, they had already tried them, and they were completely ineffective.

Brilliant Knife Edge held out against the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion, while the other warriors quickly retreated.

The poison mist completely enveloped the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion, and the players on the outside could not see the main body of the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion in the center. More than a dozen warriors and thieves could not withstand the erosion of the poison mist and fell to the ground one after another.

Rays of holy light fell on the poison mist, and the two canceled each other out, and the poison mist gradually lessened.

Two or three minutes later, the poison mist gradually dissipated, and when the players looked at the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion again, they found that the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion’s health had returned to full.

In the poison mist, the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion’s health regeneration speed was simply abnormal!

“Damn it!” Brilliant Knife Edge could not help but curse.

After the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion’s health recovered, it began a massacre. It kept waving its giant pincers, sweeping away one warrior after another. Its tail suddenly stabbed towards Brilliant Knife Edge.

Block!

Brilliant Knife Edge shouted in a low voice, raising the great shield in his hand. With a bang, he blocked the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion’s tail.

After blocking this blow, Brilliant Knife Edge’s skin immediately turned emerald green, and his health dropped piece by piece. Seeing that he was about to die, Big Bro Qizai, Shili Huasha, and others quickly used healing skills to save Brilliant Knife Edge.

The number of deaths in the team quickly exceeded fifty. Every time they reduced the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion’s health to below 25%, the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion would use the poison mist skill to restore its health.

“Need a few strong controls!” Brilliant Knife Edge said depressingly. If someone could control the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion when it was spewing poison mist, then there would be no problem.

“No, even if there are strong controls, it’s useless. Its resistance and evasion are too high,” King’s World said from a distance. They had tried it, but only one out of five strong control skills was effective. No matter how strong the control, it couldn’t do anything to it.

“Let’s go,” Water Color Smoker said, the casualties would only get bigger and bigger without any results if they kept fighting.

“Boss Dao Guang, the poison scorpions in the back have all spawned. We can’t get out at all!” The mages in the back said anxiously in the team chat.

Looking towards the exit of the valley behind them, hundreds of poison scorpions had already spawned there. Once they retreated into the valley, they would be attacked from both sides.

“It looks like we’re going to be wiped out,” Brilliant Knife Edge thought gloomily. Although being wiped out wasn’t something he hadn’t experienced before, being wiped out once was really too damaging to the team.

“How many people have random teleport scrolls? Those who have them, leave first.”

Among the thousands of people, there were only a few dozen random teleport scrolls. Random teleport scrolls were too few to meet the needs of so many people.

Just as they were talking, the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion broke through the warriors’ encirclement, made contact with the Holy Knights in the second line of defense, and slaughtered more than thirty Holy Knights along the way. The players of the Nirvana Flame Tribe fought and retreated. Being wiped out was unavoidable.

“Everyone, unequip your gear and try to lose as little as possible. It’s best to find a hidden place to die, and then run back to resurrect, so you’ll lose less experience.”

Brilliant Knife Edge, Water Color Smoker, and others quickly arranged it. When encountering this kind of situation where being wiped out was inevitable, if they died properly, the losses could be reduced by more than 50%.

One Holy Knight after another fell under the giant pincers of the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion. The splashing blood caused the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion to enter a state of frenzy.

Nie Yan rode the Darkwing Dragon, circling in the sky. Below, clouds were densely packed. Looking into the distance, he saw a vast and endless sea of clouds, with only a few mountain peaks showing their heads.

He could not find where the Poison Mist Valley was. He searched in the sky and saw a black cloud in the distance, as if it had been dyed with ink. That was it! Those black clouds were full of poison.

Nie Yan’s heart was filled with joy, and he controlled the Darkwing Dragon to fly towards it, while chanting an incantation.

Soon, the Darkwing Dragon reached the sky above the black cloud.

After an incantation was completed, the Darkwing Dragon suddenly disappeared, having been recalled by him. Nie Yan fell downwards.

If the Darkwing Dragon touched those poison mists, although it would not die directly, it would definitely be severely affected, so Nie Yan decided to recall it.

Seeing that he was about to fall into the black cloud, Nie Yan drank a bottle of Master-level antidote potion, and his altitude quickly decreased.

Passing through the thick clouds, Nie Yan saw the situation below. Nearly a thousand players were surrounding a giant scorpion, and a large number of corpses were lying on the ground.

“Boss Guo Huai said that Boss Nie Yan is heading this way.”

“By the time Nie Yan gets here, I’m afraid we’ll have already been wiped out,” Brilliant Knife Edge sighed.

“Look there!”

“Where?”

“In the air!”

The players next to him looked in the direction the player was pointing, and saw a figure falling from the sky, getting closer and closer to the ground.

“It’s Boss Nirvana Flame!” Someone shouted excitedly.

They had originally been desperate, but with Nie Yan’s appearance, a glimmer of hope rose in their hearts. They had a strange trust in Nie Yan, and maybe Nie Yan could turn the tide.

“That guy Nie Yan is really fast. All team members, listen to me, put all your equipment back on. Let’s try again!” Brilliant Knife Edge said in a deep voice in the team chat, and rushed towards the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion. With a shield bash, there was a muffled bang, and the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion took a few steps back.

Shili Huasha, Big Bro Qizai, and others quickly healed Brilliant Knife Edge.

The entire team quickly adjusted its formation and began to deal with the Poison Mist Giant Scorpion. More than two hundred corpses were lying on the ground, but fortunately the damage dealers were all still alive. There were still more than a hundred meat shields in the front, so there shouldn’t be a problem for the time being.

The mages waved their staffs and continued to deal magical damage.

Nie Yan’s altitude decreased rapidly. Seeing that he was about to smash into the ground, he used a Feather Fall skill, and the speed of his descent slowed down rapidly. With a bang, he landed on the ground, and a damage number of more than two thousand floated above his head.

In order to save time, Nie Yan didn’t use the Feather Fall gem until he was close to the ground. Everything was as he expected. The damage from this fall was not enough to kill him instantly.

“All elemental and arcane mages, listen up, use fire magic. Arcane mages, don’t use fire magic that deals dark corrosion damage!” Nie Yan shouted in the team chat.

“Understood!” All the elemental mages and arcane mages agreed in unison, and their shouts shook the sky.

With Nie Yan’s appearance, their morale was back!
