Chapter 185: Chapter 180: When People Become Despicable, They Are Unbeatable
“Really, another dog in the fight? Well, if that’s how we’re playing, I might as well join in on the fun and help them earn the teachers’ favor faster.”
Li Fengwen casually took out a bead filled with ominous energy, and after assuming the standard posture of a baseball pitcher, he flung the bead as a streak of black light directly into the gatehouse of the castle.
As the bead vanished, it took mere seconds for a strange mist to seep out from the gatehouse, quickly enveloping the battlefield by the gate.
And so, another twist of fate occurred.
All abyssal monsters shrouded in the eerie mist started to roar madly. As their howling grew louder, their bodies visibly elongated bit by bit.
Within just four or five seconds, all abyssal creatures had swelled in size as if juiced up on steroids, any clarity in their eyes gone, leaving only a rampant desire to destroy!
“Damn it! What the hell did you throw? Enhanced every attribute of all abyssal monsters by 20%?”
A group of people, giving Li the instigator odd looks, became particularly wary of this devious asshole.
“This is an Abyssal Mist Bead, refined to concentrate abyssal essence and integrate substances that induce rage in creatures. Just a little toy I made.”
After a casual explanation, Li Mouren watched the chaos unfold on the battlefield with great amusement.
Especially the four teachers who were just squatting by the bridge, now they seemed like they would gladly rip his heart out.
What was supposed to be a simple spectacle of a freshman trial had been ruined by this contraption; worse still, they might have to intervene to restore order, which was just infuriating!
“Is this thing specifically for monsters?”
In just a dozen seconds or so, all the monsters at the castle gate got a massive boost, as if on steroids.
But the freshmen who were getting beaten up remained the same, except for a slight impairment in their vision due to the black fog, everything else was normal.
“This type of bead only affects creatures with dark attributes, and it also has some significant side effects.”
As for what those side effects were, Li Fengwen didn’t say, but gestured for everyone to continue watching.
At this point, the freshmen in the front were truly miserable.
The steroid-enraged Gargoyles, once fairly proportionate in build, had turned into devilish muscle freaks and abandoned their diving attack strategy, landing on the ground and engaging in a fleshy confrontation with the freshmen.
The frontline tanks, each and every one of them, got beaten to a bloody pulp; beneath those fleshy caresses, all they could do was howl out the ache in their bodies.
Thankfully, the team’s healers were competent. With a series of healing spells, while they couldn’t remove the pain of the beatings, they managed to keep everyone’s health above 60%.
As for offensive capability, under these circumstances, talking about damage output was pointless!
The summoned Infernal Fires, already at Third Order Peak LV80 hero bosses, had higher resistances, and after a 20% boost to all attributes, even basic attacks struggled to break their defense.
And when it came to skill-based damage, the Infernal Fires’ Magic Resistance was not at all low, resulting in pitiful damage inflicted by the freshmen.
However, these darlings of heaven were not stupid. Realizing they had been screwed over by someone, they began to drag things out.
The team gradually moved outward, applying every debuff skill they had on the Infernal Fires and Gargoyles.
In short, they were trying to reduce the monsters’ damage and speed, aiming for a war of attrition, delaying until the monsters’ buffs wore off.
They refused to believe that such an instantaneous, massive boost could last for a long time.
“Knowing to fall back, the team still manages to stay calm; just not sure if they can withstand this wave.”
Watching the shameless Li Mouren, people were speechless.
“They haven’t even used most of their life-saving methods yet. Besides, with just this number of monsters, for students capable of entering Dragon Academy, this shouldn’t be a difficult task. Otherwise, better to be expelled early and not waste a spot.”
Ten short minutes passed, and those steroids-pumped monsters began their slimming show.
Like they had been overly excited earlier, only knowing a fierce barrage of impacts, but accidentally overdoing it and then immediately deflating, switched to the clear-headed mode of a sage.
Only, this bunch of creatures was in for a worse fate, having seriously overdrawn their strength using a substandard product, leading to a severe deficit.
Zi Liyuan, seeing all the negative BUFFs appear on the monsters, with a -50% decrease to all attributes lasting for 30 minutes, fell into deep thought.
High for ten minutes after popping a pill, then suddenly limp for half an hour?
That side effect was seriously powerful, since even the hero boss Infernal Fire succumbed without any reduction in duration. That was just absurd.
Faced with the suddenly weakened monsters, the pissed-off freshmen had no intention of mercy.
Was it not a series of fleshly caresses just now?
Damn you! Have a taste of my shield-to-face treatment!
The sounds of smacking echoed in unison at that moment.
The previously battered tanks finally got the chance to vent their fury.
The entire freshman team unleashed an endless barrage of attacks, and all the powerful skills they had conserved were now thrown without restraint.
Right at the outset of the negative BUFF, one after another, the Infernal Fires were taken down by focus fire.
And the Gargoyles, resorting to their sneaky tactics once more, got pinned down onto the ground upon diving and suffered endless rubbing before shattering into broken stone debris.
