Chapter 823. Queen of Misery Zhura
Zhang Yang and his gang quickly turned around and got back to the walls to handle the Void Dwellers that were about to breach the wall. Fortunately, not all of the Void Dwellers were at the walls. Currently, there was only approximately 1,000 of them over by the wall. Although these 1,000 Elite Tier monsters were actually pretty scary and intimidating, the headquarters of the humans was just located over those walls. Therefore, it was impossible that the number of players around the vicinity to dwindle. Furthermore, the NPCs weren't just standing idle allowing the monsters to hit them. They immediately engaged those Elite Tier monsters with the weapons in their hands.
Because these monsters were not affected by the aggro system, Zhang Yang had no way of luring them or to get them to follow him. So he could only focus on dealing as much damage as he could onto those monsters. One less monster would lighten the amount of damage the NPCs would receive.
Fortunately for the players, the NPCs could be healed by Healers. Upon settling with their own kind, the Healers then turned their attention towards the NPCs, largely reducing the death count of the NPCs.
After approximately an hour, all of the Void Dwellers were wiped out clean. Meanwhile, the players had suffered heavy casualties. Although a small number of players were resurrected, the third wave of the demonic army had arrived. Therefore, quite a number of players had to stay dead on the ground.
Meanwhile, the waves of the army continued to come after they managed to survive the previous wave of attacks. The third wave, the fourth wave, the fifth wave! The more waves they managed to survive, the higher the number of casualties the players had to suffer. More importantly, the lesser players the Priests and the Knights could resurrect, it was obvious that the battles were getting more difficult by the second.
"There's still no sign of the boss yet! What a tragic day!" Endless Starlight sighed.
However, Zhang Yang said, "It's actually a good news that we haven't encountered any boss so far. Or else, I think we'll suffer much higher casualties by now. We might not have survived for so long!"
"I wonder how many rounds left…"
"The official told us that there should be 10 waves!"
