Around 00:10 a.m. Cook Islands time, all Auroville residents collectively received a city message.

[City-wide mission: Defeat the God of Shadows and protect the Sky City!]

[Mission description: A mysterious god came to the world with the goal of destroying the sky city we depend on for survival. It is the duty of all people to protect the sky city. It is time to take up arms, repel the enemy, and guard our city!

The Shadow God is now restricted and temporarily incapacitated. However, the Shadow God will resume action in two hours. At that time, the difficulty of killing will increase more than a hundred times. Therefore, we only have two hours left for the strategy. Please

Take action now!

The following is the proven enemy intelligence (updating in real time...)

The God of Shadows, level 33, HP: 37 billion, possesses abilities: God's Bite, God's Defense, the specific effects are as follows...]

[Effective strategies:

1. Due to the effects of 'God's Bite' and 'God's Defense', all players are requested to use a single high-power attack as much as possible instead of multiple attacks. In addition, be sure to wait at least ten seconds after each attack before launching the next one.

An attack.

2. The God of Shadow’s magic defense is zero, but he has a little physical resistance and high abnormal status resistance. Restrictive magic is completely ineffective against it. At the same time, the multiple levels of suppression brought by the super high level will make us

The attack value is greatly reduced. According to current tests, ordinary players at levels 1-10 can only cause 1%-3% damage to them depending on their attack methods, while mid-level players at levels 10-15 can only deal 2%-6% damage.

, the damage of high-level players at levels 15-20 is 4%-12%, and so on...

In addition, light magic can cause additional damage to the God of Shadows. Players with light magic should try to use light spells to carry out strategies.

3. The Octopus King is our fighting partner. It is working hard to restrain the Shadow God and create a safe output environment for us. However, the main body of the Octopus King cannot be out of the water for a long time, otherwise the power will decline rapidly, which may cause the Shadow God to lose control.

God is freed from bondage. Once the God of Shadows resumes action, every attack will cause us heavy casualties. Therefore, players with water magic and recovery magic, please create water sources as much as possible, water it on the surface of the Octopus King, and help it recover from its injuries.

and physical strength.】

[Task reward: When you attack the God of Shadows and cause effective damage, you will receive a high amount of real experience, permanent health, and special titles and many other rewards. Based on the damage caused, you will gain the reputation of the Fool in real time at a ratio of 10:1 (

The upper limit is 5,000 points).

After defeating the Shadow God, the top 100 residents with the final contribution will receive additional reputation rewards and the opportunity to take up high-level positions.]

It is late at night in China, but most people are not asleep. Even if they are asleep, they are quickly woken up by relatives and friends around them. What happened tonight has subverted many people's imagination.

.

Ten minutes ago, the game prompted that Dawn City was facing a crisis of destruction. All players who joined Dawn City were given the option to protect the city or abandon the city for refuge. In particular, many people who claimed to be residents of Dawn City left messages on the forum,

He said that he was inexplicably killed instantly by "some kind of existence" without even seeing the enemy's face, which made people panic.

This has made many ordinary people realize that Dawn City seems to have encountered an unprecedented crisis this time. If it is not handled well, it may really be in danger of destruction.

Some of the mid-level players are already hesitating whether to quit Dawn City as soon as possible and join other cities. Otherwise, when Dawn City is really destroyed, a large number of experts will be homeless. By then, there will be more wolves and less meat, and it will be difficult to join other cities.

.

Of course, more people are still waiting and watching. After all, Dawn City is the first city in the sky and has the fastest development in all aspects. It has an unshakable beacon status in the hearts of most players. If there is a chance to survive the crisis,

Many people are willing to pay some price to protect the safety of Dawn City.

Until this moment, an announcement finally popped up in the game again, and it was a city-wide order directly from the city lord!

Almost as soon as the announcement was issued, it was immediately reposted on the Fool Forum.

This announcement, which was over a thousand words long, mentioned the ‘God of Shadows’, ‘God’s Bite’, ‘Octopus King’ and many other eye-catching elements, which immediately caused an uproar on the forum.

"God of Shadows? Is this a real god?"

"There are actually gods in this world..."

"God actually wants to destroy Dawn City. Is this considered a divine punishment?"

After reading the announcement, many people were first shocked by the word 'god', because in cultures throughout the ages, the images of gods are basically existences that make mortals awe and worship, especially now that everyone knows that the opposite star world is a real world.

In the existing world, a real god came to the world and wanted to destroy their city. Just thinking of this made many people subconsciously unable to resist.

Of course, there are many rational players who immediately refuted it.

"Damn it, haven't you ever played online games? Isn't this just a big boss for the whole server?"

"Yes, and this god is too hot. He was immobilized by our boss as soon as he appeared on the scene. Now he can only be beaten for fear of ghosts!"

"It doesn't matter if it's a god or not, if you dare to show your health bar, brothers, it's over!"

"It is our duty to protect the glory of the Fool!"

"Are you guys serious upstairs? Haven't you seen the exaggerated blood volume?"

"My dear, 37 billion health bars, is this real?"

"What happened to 37 billion? Where are the 40 million residents of Dawn City! On average, each person only needs to hit a thousand points of damage, which is enough to kill it. In two hours, can't you guys still hit a thousand points?

harm?"

"That's what I say, but the power of this thing is too terrifying, isn't it? If you hit it ten times, you will definitely die once. How many people's lifespan can withstand such a consumption?"

"That's right, and there is also the issue of experience penalty. Players below level 10 will not lose experience after death. However, for players above level 10, the experience penalty for consecutive deaths will continue to double. The more you die, the more experience will be doubled.

, and soon fell back below level ten... Everyone has worked hard to get up there. I am willing to defend the city, even if I die a few times, it doesn't matter, but I really want to drop my level by one level in order to defend the city.

,I can’t do it!”

After these words, there was silence below the post for a few seconds.

The last player to speak can be said to have said what most people are most worried about right now: everyone is afraid of sacrificing too much of their own interests in order to defend the city.

"Didn't the announcement say that you can get many high rewards by attacking the Shadow God? In addition to experience and reputation, there are also titles and even permanent health points?"

"This reward looks quite attractive, but I don't know how much it is. If the reward can offset the experience deduction for death, I wouldn't mind participating..."

"So, are there any big guys out there who want to test the waters? What if the rewards are really good?"

……

While the debate continued on the forum, Mu You had already maintained his mecha form on Dawn City, holding the cannon in his hand, and took the lead in attacking.

Mu You was a little worried at first, whether two hours would be enough for them to kill the Shadow God. Facing such a god-level existence, one's personal strength is too weak, and the whole city must be mobilized to do it.

Indeed, as long as there is a health bar in the game, no matter how strong the boss is, it will not be a problem for the players, but there is a prerequisite for this, that is, the rewards must be generous enough!

As long as the rewards are valuable enough, even gods can definitely be destroyed by players in various ways. However, if the rewards are average and the players are not motivated enough to attract enough players to participate, then the same is true of the boss overturning in the entire server.

Commonly seen.

Therefore, whether we can survive this crisis this time depends on whether the reward for attacking this god is attractive enough!

Mu You was worried about this before, but after briefly exchanging information with Lin Xue before making the announcement, he knew it was safe.

Lin Xue's previous scythe cut with the Death God's skin caused tens of thousands of damage to the Shadow God, and the reward information fed back from that attack proved that the reward for killing the God this time was definitely rich enough, and other players were not afraid of being tempted.<

/p>

"Boom!"

As the cannon's charge reached ten seconds, a dazzling beam of light blasted out and fell directly on the giant shadow ghost in front of it, but it was like a sea of ​​mud, without causing a single ripple.

However, Mu You knew that this blow had its intended effect, because the moment the artillery fire exploded, several reminders appeared in his mind.

[You caused 902 points of damage to the Shadow of the Shadow God! You gained 1173 real experience points, and your health points were permanently increased by 902 points (the upper limit of similar effects is 5000 points).]

[You have gained 90 points of Fool’s reputation (maximum 5000 points).]

[The Bite of God is triggered, and your life is forcibly deducted by 10%!]

[Because you caused more than 100 points of damage to the God of Shadows, you received the special title ‘Certificate of Courage’.]

[Certificate of Courage: The Fool's Hymn is a hymn of courage, a proof of daring to fight against gods with a mortal body! Obtained after causing 100 points of damage to any god. When wearing this title, your damage to gods will be increased by 10%, and you will be affected by gods.

The effect of the bite is weakened by 10%. When you die in a battle with a god, you will not be penalized by experience. (It cannot be traded, and you can only wear one title at the same time.)]

That's right, as long as you cause damage to the Shadow God, you can get the same amount of experience and health.

The health here is actually the same thing as the residue obtained by killing the shadow ghost before. After all, it seems that the shadow ghosts of the Undead Society are all created by the shadow god. Directly attacking the shadow god can gain the value of killing the shadow ghost.

Similar trophies are also normal, but unfortunately the upper limit is only 5,000 points, and once it is full, you can no longer obtain it.

The second is a new title, Proof of Courage, a title specialized for gods. After wearing it, it will increase some damage to gods while weakening the effect of God's Bite.

Originally, 10% of the player's health bar would be deducted for each attack, and ten attacks would deduct all deaths. Now, God's Bite can only deduct 9% of the blood bar each time, and it takes 12 times to deduct a person's life, which is equal to

Everyone has two more attack opportunities without side effects.

In addition, the most useful thing about this badge is the last explanation: in the battle with the gods, the experience penalty of death is exempted.

This alone greatly reduces the worries of intermediate and advanced players. Everyone who attacks the Shadow God only needs to consider whether their lifespan is enough, and does not need to worry about losing levels. In addition, attacking the Shadow God gives you permanent health points.

and reputation and other rewards. For intermediate and advanced players, participating in this mission is definitely profitable!

In addition to the above, the truly valuable reward for ordinary players in this mission is actually the most inconspicuous experience.

Because the experience gained from attacking the gods this time is not ordinary experience value, but 'real experience'!

[Real experience: Experience that will not be deducted by death can automatically break through the bottleneck below level 20. The effect is equivalent to taking an ordinary level evolution potion.]

This was the first time Mu You saw this entry, but after reading the description, he immediately understood that as long as the effect of this thing is announced, it will definitely make all ordinary players crazy.

He can skip the evolution potion and go directly to the experience of breaking through the bottleneck. He believes that no one can refuse this temptation as long as they are players below level 15!
To be continued...
