Absolute Death Game-Chapter 502 - 4 Who Will Tank Dragon

Early the next morning, Xiao Buli's team logged on early for today's practice battle. Last night, Li Shuren barely slept, worrying about the preparations. After logging on, the brothers chatted and joked around until the agreed time when other solo players also got online. Du Yibo commented curiously, "Boss, it seems like you're always the first one to log on, eh? You're really diligent." Xiao Buli just chuckled and offered no reply.

About an hour later, Xiao Buli led his team to the entrance of the Scorching Caverns. Gazing at the steady stream of hot air rising from the entrance, Xiao Buli felt a wave of scorching heat hit his face.

Although the players couldn't physically sense the environment through their computers, it was, after all, their first time getting this close to a member of the Dragon Clan. Even though Xiao Buli had described it as a minor character in their practice battle, everyone's nerves were still somewhat on edge.

As the players formed a fan shape around the cave entrance, Xiao Buli stood on a slightly raised rock, gesturing for silence and attention. Everyone's gaze fixated on him.

"Alright, I made things very clear last night, today is our final rehearsal before the actual battle. Although this Little Red Dragon's attributes are not as terrifying as those of the bigger dragons, I still want everyone to be fully alert and not to underestimate it. Now I'm going to discuss the battle plan for taking down the Little Red Dragon. Listen carefully," Xiao Buli started briefing on how to kill the dragon, right at the doorstep of the Little Red Dragon's home. If the dragon could understand human language, it probably would have been furious.

"Today we're setting up our position here. Considering the home-ground advantage the Red Dragon has inside the cavern, we're staging the battlefield here. In a moment, I'll go down first to lure the Red Dragon up. Everyone should wait for my signal before taking action. Next, I will introduce some of the Red Dragon's attributes to everyone.

Health Points: 65400.

Armor: 1200.

Fire Resistance: MAX.

Ice Resistance: -50. Meaning, if anyone has Ice System skills, use them liberally. As for Fire System skills like Fireball, don't even bother—it's less effective than just landing a sword strike. Besides these two resistances, the rest are normal, so if all else fails, feel free to boldly use spells from Earth Element or Thunder System." In reality, Xiao Buli didn't even have to say this; the others could have figured this out on their own. However, as a leader, Xiao Buli had to gauge his subordinates with the lowest common denominator in mind. Otherwise, if anyone was confused and didn't understand, it would leave him wanting to cry without tears. Each time he went over tactics before a battle, he was reminded of his teachers from school. Back then, every time the teachers repeatedly emphasized issues he thought even an idiot could grasp, Xiao Buli was bewildered; why harp on such simple concepts? But when someone actually made a mistake on those very issues, he realized that when dealing with a group, you encounter all sorts of people. In the past, Xiao Buli often felt the pre-battle meetings were so straightforward they could be wrapped up in just a few sentences. It was only after summarizing their experience from a total wipeout did he realize that there were indeed a few fools who hadn't understood a single term yet were too embarrassed to ask. Hence, in later meetings, regardless of who was below, Xiao Buli made sure to cover all points in a simplified manner.

"That's it for spells and resistances. Now let's move on to the dragon's skills:

Immortal Body LV6: Increases health points by six times. This is why the health points of the Dragon Clan are so high.

Flame Dragon Breath LV5: A cone-shaped area attack. All participants must disperse and avoid the dragon's mouth as much as possible.

Divine Dragon Tail Swing LV6: A common melee skill among the Dragon Clan, with a knockback effect and a high chance to land crushing blows. All participants should also try to avoid the dragon's tail. So, in battle, we need to position ourselves on the sides of the dragon.

Claw Strike LV10: A basic attack skill with massive damage potential. Aside from tank roles, there's a high chance of instant kills on others.

Claw Strike - Grapple LV5: Can be triggered if Claw Strike hits a target, grabbing hold of a target and inflicting continuous crushing damage. Those with sufficient Strength attribute can break free; otherwise, they'll be crushed to death. Thus, all participants should try to avoid getting caught. In case someone does get caught, the ranged firepower group should focus immediately on that dragon's claw, which can rescue the person caught; however, considering the risk of friendly fire, it's best to use only targeted skills."

Dragon Prestige LV4: A passive skill unique to the Dragon Clan, it exerts pressure on nearby enemies, lowering their attributes.

Dragon Roar LV3: Produces a daunting roar that affects nearby enemies, with a chance to send them into a frenzy of fear and flight. Those with a certain level of spiritual power can resist it.

Given that this skill is a full-screen attack, everyone should avoid standing near the lava during the battle to prevent fleeing into hazardous areas when affected. Furthermore, if teammates notice anyone affected by the skill, it's best to distract themselves to help out, striving to avoid any casualties. However, do this only if it's within your capabilities; if you're stretched thin, survival comes first. Got it?" Although the goal was to slay the dragon without suffering any casualties, Xiao Buli still had to make the risks clear in advance.

When everyone heard Xiao Buli emphasize this point, they nodded in agreement, feeling that his approach was indeed very humane. Compared to the Great Guilds that didn't value people's lives, it seemed more convincing.
