Chapter 255 Roping in a Powerful Aide

When they entered the game, they were still on the stone bridge. Almost the instant they entered, they all entered a state of combat.

Cui Can Dao Guang went up to the front, drawing Dilaklu’s attention.

Dilaklu’s health hadn’t recovered, because the time spent offline didn’t count for the Boss in the game.

Nie Yan quickly re-summoned the golden dragon. The golden dragon let out a low roar and charged forward.

The moment the golden dragon appeared, Dilaklu’s aggro shifted to it, because the golden dragon had previously dealt far more damage to him than Cui Can Dao Guang.

The two behemoths crashed together heavily, and the stone bridge trembled.

Nie Yan also hired the holy knight Leves, who immediately started casting heals on the golden dragon.

The connection was excellent, and the mages in the rear began to attack with peace of mind.

The others were scattered across the bridge, continuing their sustained damage output. Nie Yan took out Doron, the Headless Horseman's Repeating Crossbow, and pulled the trigger, firing several arrows. However, the damage was very low, almost negligible. Dilaklu's defense against piercing damage was extremely high.

Nie Yan thought for a moment, then entered stealth and carefully circled around Dilaklu. He stabbed down hard with the Zennarde's Sword in his hand, then followed with a vicious Garrote.

Damage numbers in the three thousand range floated above Dilaklu's head. He stomped his foot down on Nie Yan. Seeing that he was about to be crushed, Nie Yan rolled away. With a boom, Dilaklu missed and raised his foot to stomp down again.

Nie Yan passed through Dilaklu’s legs, narrowly avoiding being crushed, and scrambled out, looking disheveled.

This would happen every time he got close to Dilaklu, and the other thieves in the group were the same. Unlike Cui Can Dao Guang, who could use his shield to knock back Dilaklu's foot, these thieves didn't have that kind of strength.

Dilaklu's health slowly decreased, but it wasn't very noticeable. It would take a long time for his health to move even a little.

This was the first time Nie Yan and the others had encountered a Boss with so much health, and they were at a loss.

Nie Yan opened the holy knight Leves’ skill bar, trying to find some effective skills. There were over a hundred skills, a dazzling sight. The stronger Nie Yan became, the stronger the holy knight Leves also became. He would also learn new skills, so he had more and more skills, many of which Nie Yan had never seen before.

After searching for a while, Nie Yan's gaze landed on one particular skill. The skill was called Magic Reduction Array. It required some materials to create a small array. All demonic creatures within 50 yards of this array would have their health regeneration rate greatly reduced.

Looking at the requirements, it needed: 10 Scrolls of Light, 3 Silver Radiance Stones, and 5 Stones of Light.

"Does anyone have Scrolls of Light, Silver Radiance Stones, and Stones of Light?" Nie Yan asked in the team chat. These were all raw materials needed by holy knights, priests, or holy word mages to cast spells, so it was normal that he didn't have them.

"I have 3 Scrolls of Light and 2 Silver Radiance Stones here," Dai Tou Da Ge Qi Zai said, checking his bag.

"I have 9 Stones of Light here," Xie Yao said, looking at her bag.

...

Soon, Nie Yan gathered the materials and began to set up the array according to the description. Before long, an array appeared on the stone bridge about five yards away from Dilaklu. The moment the array formed, a white pillar of light fell, then slowly spread, forming a white light-covered area within a radius of fifty yards, looking magnificent.

After being illuminated by these rays of light, Dilaklu let out an angry roar. He wanted to rush up and destroy the array, but after taking a few steps, the chains behind him pulled him back heavily, making it difficult for him to move forward, let alone destroy the array.

After the Magic Reduction Array was formed, Nie Yan and the others clearly felt that the rate at which Dilaklu's health decreased was much faster than before. The Magic Reduction Array could greatly reduce the speed at which Dilaklu's health regenerated.

At this speed, Nie Yan and the others could probably take down about 1.5% of Dilaklu's health per hour. Although it was still relatively slow, it was much better than before.

Seeing that the Magic Reduction Array was effective, Nie Yan immediately continued searching the holy knight Leves' skill bar, looking for similar skills. Soon, he used the materials carried by Xie Yao and others to create three arrays that could greatly weaken Dilaklu's attributes.

Arrays like the Magic Reduction Array were very useless to players, because they attracted too much aggro. If ordinary demonic creatures discovered such an array nearby, their first reaction would be to clear the arrays first. Plus, they were very troublesome to set up, so few players would use them to deal with Boss-level creatures. But here, the situation was different, and the effect was completely different.

Dilaklu was bound by chains and couldn't destroy the arrays.

They continued to wear down Dilaklu's health, and another full day passed, consuming about 38% of his health.

Although it was slow, at least it gave them some hope. After all, there was still a chance to kill the Betrayer Dilaklu! If they really killed Dilaklu, they didn't know what kind of items would drop. This was a level 180 Demonified Lord!

In addition to the items dropped by Dilaklu, Nie Yan would also obtain the legendary Heart of the Assassin, which would definitely be of great benefit to his future development.

"Nie Yan, I've used up all my Expert Instant Recovery Magic Potions, and I only have a dozen or so Advanced Instant Recovery Magic Potions left," Sha Bu Si De Huai Dan said, looking at his bag with some worry.

"Me too," Xia Chong Yu Bing said.

"I'm about the same," Yu Wang Ran Zhi Qing Chun also looked at his bag.

Their magic potions were being consumed very quickly. Although they were being very frugal, their bags were still emptying out quickly. Under normal circumstances, instant recovery magic potions were used to recover magic in the event of an accident, and were rarely used. Who would have thought that they would be drinking them like crazy now? The instant recovery magic potions they had used up just now would have been enough for them to use for a month or two in normal times.

Only Tang Yao and Xie Yao had slightly more magic potions left among them.

"I have nine Expert Instant Recovery Magic Potions here. You can use them," Tang Yao said, taking out a few magic potions and handing them to Sha Bu Si De Huai Dan, Xia Chong Yu Bing, and Yu Wang Ran Zhi Qing Chun.

"I have eight Expert-grade and six Advanced-grade," Xie Yao said. That was all she had left in her bag.

The magic potions they had left were only a drop in the bucket.
