Chapter 618: Sly Bubtney
Stone was standing in front of Cyclops with a shield in his hand, a few melee contractors were standing behind him, and a few dozen meters behind them were Old Wolf and the other ranged contractors.
Along with the Cyclops ' roar, a shockwave of air spread out in all directions. Contractors started plugging their ears one by one, and their racks became unstable.
This was obviously some sort of Cyclops skill.
After the roar, the Cyclops bent down and picked up a "wooden stick"from the ground. For him, it was a stick, but for ordinary people, it was a huge gnawed tree.
Cyclops raised his weapon and glared at all the contractors.
Su Xiao saw this and aimed at his eye.
Exhaling, he pulled the trigger.
*BOOM!*
The bullet escaped from the muzzle of the rifle, and flew at high speed towards the Cyclops.
Just as the bullet was about to hit the monster's eye, the Cyclops turned its head to the side.
With a loud thud, the bullet hit his cheek, leaving a large hole in it.
— How solid, " Su Xiao muttered and didn't shoot any further. Bullets were very expensive and he didn't see the need to shoot this monster until the critical moment arrived.
As for the reward from the treasure chest, he wasn't worried about it at all.
Paradise didn't have any chest protection mechanism. As long as the chest was on the ground, any contractor could pick it up. The right of ownership and protection of this right began to take effect only after the contractor lifted the chest.
Although Cyclops was hit in the cheek by a bullet, the collision did not create a visible wound, but the veins on his arm, which was holding a huge tree, swelled up.
The Cyclops carefully looked in the direction from which it was attacked, but unfortunately, found nothing.
In the end, his eyes looked at the "little bug" in front of him.
At this moment, Old Wolf and the others broke out in a cold sweat and didn't dare to move. No one wanted this monster to target them specifically.
The cyclops raised a huge tree. His muscles bulged and he swung at Stone.
The tree cut through the air, making a loud whoosh as it did so. Stone's heart skipped a beat at the sound of that whistle.
A tree slammed into Stoin's tower shield. The ground beneath him cracked and cracked.
Just when everyone thought that Stone wouldn't be able to withstand this blow, his shield suddenly flashed.
Along with a loud whirring sound, a barely visible impact shot out from the front of the tower shield.
The Cyclops immediately stepped back and landed on the ground with a crash.
— Now! The Old wolf shouted. The staff in his hand immediately flashed and a beam shot out from its table of contents and flew towards the monster's eye at an extremely high speed.
The beam eventually exploded on the cyclops ' chest, ripping off some of its skin.
Another contractor next to the old man pulled the string of his bow and released an arrow.
The sharp arrow hit the giant's calf, but as if hitting an iron wall, it ended up shattering.
Only a small white mark remained on the Cyclops ' calf.
— The Old Wolf's complexion turned a little pale. His spell did not do much damage, but the attacks of the other contractors could only give Cyclops a light massage at best.
Spells, arrows, bullets, and so on hit the one-eyed monster's body, and the Cyclops roared again.
Although these attacks couldn't kill him, they hurt him.
Cyclops raised his huge wooden club and slammed it into the ground, but the next moment Stone made a move and Cyclops looked at him intently again.
To become the main tank of the group, it wasn't really enough just to be hardy enough. In addition, it was necessary to have the necessary skills and knowledge. After all, Heaven is not a game. Most of the monsters encountered were intelligent and it was difficult to keep their attention without any " buts».
Many of the main tanks had unique techniques, while Stone's unique feature was flames. His flames had almost no attacking power, but they caused the enemy great pain.
Some of the main tanks resorted to the usual conversational provocations, some had restrictive skills... There were many different methods to keep the enemy's attention on themselves.
Stone just made the enemy feel a lot of pain, plus created a lot of pressure with his presence, which eventually led to the enemy starting to hate him more than anyone else.
And this time Stone must have succeeded, for the Cyclops ' eye turned red and he roared angrily, and then he took hold of his stick with both hands and slammed it down with all his might.
But Stone was very resistant to such attacks. If it was another contractor from this group, he would have already been killed.
The contractors ' formation quickly stabilized, with Stone still in the lead, while everyone else stood in their positions and waited.
Old Wolf and the other ranged fighters moved a couple dozen meters away from the front row for safety's sake.
Su Xiao was still lying down. He didn't even need to move. Moreover, he only fired one shot.
On the battlefield, Stone steadfastly restrained the Cyclops, but with each attack of the monster, his head was spinning more and more. Fortunately, there was a young female healer in their group. In addition to healing, she also gave him blessings and various power-ups, which allowed him to continue to keep the Cyclops ' attention on himself.
Old Wolf and the others kept attacking him, but the Cyclops ' defense was too strong. If they had seen his health bar, they would have seen that he had 97% health left.
In all that time, they were only able to take away 3% of his health.
Moreover, even though they were standing behind Stone, they weren't safe. Sometimes the Cyclops threw stones, and one of the most unlucky contractors did not manage to get away, and as a result, now under a large stone lay his corpse.
Bubtney was standing next to Su Xiao. He looked thoughtful, as if he was thinking about something interesting, and suddenly he raised his head and howled.
At this moment, all the contractors simultaneously discovered one thing: they were suddenly enveloped by an aura.
[You are under the influence of the Gift of the Goddess of Ice and Snow (Aura), you start to restore an additional 1 health point per second.]
One health point per second, 60 points per minute. That was a pretty good boost.
Stone blocked another blow, glanced sideways at the young girl, and nodded.
She was a little embarrassed. She was the only healer in the group and didn't have such an aura.
— This aura is good.
— Oh, we can save on consumables.
All the contractors were delighted. Bubtni's aura was really powerful.
As for why Bubtney turned on his aura on all the contractors? For the sake of killing Cyclops? Even if the contractors killed him, they wouldn't get anything, because in the end, in his opinion, everything would still go to Su Xiao.
In the eyes of the contractors, Bubtney was just a big dog and nothing more, but it wasn't worth ignoring Bubtney.
Having witnessed the intrigue of these contractors, Bubtney came to the conclusion that it was absolutely necessary for him to compete with these schemers.
When all the contractors thought that they could save a significant amount of consumables with this aura, they all suddenly saw a new notification.
[Do you want to extend the Gift of the Goddess of Ice and Snow?
Current rate: 10 Paradise Coins/minute of Aura effect.
yes/no.]
Ten Paradise coins a minute. Judging from the current situation, this battle will last up to half an hour, so everyone will have to give up 300 coins.
But within that half-hour, aura would restore 1,800 health points, which was a huge number for many ordinary contractors.
The ten contractors immediately agreed to such conditions, but after that, they glared at the young girl angrily. She didn't know why they were looking at her like that, but in the end, she didn't think much of it — she couldn't take her mind off Stone for even a second.
The old wolf also eventually agreed to such a payment. Although he frowned deeply and glared at the girl, in the end, he decided not to say anything to her.
