“Stone, what are you waiting for? Get going!” Li Yao noticed Stone was still zoning out and immediately yelled.

Maybe it’s due to the tension, being a commander in the game has turned everyone into a hothead, regardless of their former temperament.

“Oh, oh,”

Stone snapped back to reality and charged up front, Thunder Strike, Shockwave.

“This is not going well, this Silver Elite is as tough as a dungeon monster.”

“Xiayao, send your Skeleton and Stone Demon to hold the line. What are you all doing? We made it clear at the start to focus on the smaller monsters once they appear. Have you forgotten already? Hurry up and switch targets. Attack the target I’ve marked.”

Other than the Fruit Knight attacking the boss, everyone else heard Li Yao’s shout and started focusing on the smaller monsters he’d marked.

Obviously, when they say the Fruit Knight is attacking the boss, more precisely she’s running around kiting the boss – only able to deal any real damage when the Sanction Hammer is available and she can control the boss for a couple of seconds.

Right now, the Fruit Knight is actually terrified, fearing that the next Flame Arrow might wipe her out. This boss is just too smart – the Flame Arrow is released at such challenging angles.

It’s always released when she can’t dodge it, either because a skill is about to be launched and she can’t stop it, or because there are healers behind her that she doesn’t dare to dodge.

If she gets hit by the Flame Arrow, she’ll barely survive, but if other team members get hit, they’ll definitely be killed in an instant. It’s the MT’s job to take the hits for the team.

However, this was just the beginning of a nightmare. When Li Yao and his teammates killed three Silver Elites, five Skeleton Warriors got up again from the ground.

“Damn it, is she an archer or a necromancer?”

Li Yao cursed. He was still upset about the dungeon restrictions on the Rangers. His Death Black Arrow became useless after entering the dungeon. After marking, he could only summon a normal monster.

What does a normal monster mean in the master-level difficulty? It’s utterly worthless, as it gets killed in one hit by any monster. And it’s very, very worthless.

Moreover, even with his super high damage output, three Silver Elites were summoned after being killed. It would probably be even worse for other teams.

“Stone, hold the aggro for now. Don’t let the monsters attack the damage output. Hai Ge, you also tank one. Shadow Dance, you kite one.” Li Yao was overwhelmed. Dealing with this Boss was simple, as long as the MT’s equipment was tough and the damage was high. However…

Now that all of their damage was restricted by the smaller monsters, the Blood Crow’s health was barely moving.

When the Blood Crow called for the fourth wave of five fallen warriors, the team was on the verge of collapse. Loveable Dumb Dumb had to give up being a damage dealer and switch to healing to barely hang on.

“It’s not working – the boss is coming over!” the Fruit Knight shouted.

Li Yao’s face changed, “Everyone, spread out as much as you can and dodge the Flame Arrow Rain.”

However, it was too late. The cave roof seemed to be on fire, similar to a fire cloud, and a large amount of Flame Arrows fell like crazy.

Li Yao and his sister, who had the ability to teleport, escaped the area. However, Stone, Shadow Dance, Dumb Dumb, and Da Vinci, including all the others, were all covered by the arrow rain.

Splat, splat, splat…

Everyone hit by the Flame Arrow rain fell to the ground – instantly killed by the explosion of the Flame Arrows.

“Faster, get wiped. It’s pointless.” Li Yao said.

Upon hearing what Li Yao said, everyone who was still alive stood still. They were defeated to death by monsters soon after.

“As I’ve said, the lot of you, no matter how many of you come, you will all die.”

With a wave of Blood Crow’s hand, all the summoned creatures disappeared. She walked gracefully back to her spot and continued to play with her Flame Crossbow.

“This is ridiculously hard.”

“That’s the difficulty of master level. I can only see despair.”

“I’m really tempted by the high-end equipment that the master level drops. But now, I think I should just stick to the elite difficulty with my friends.”

“Just passing by, playing on normal difficulty.”

“Same here, normal.”

“The key issue is that seeing the items dropped in the Carnival elite difficulty, I still felt hopeful. But this master level is like what the hell, it feels totally impossible.”

“I am absolutely giving up on the master level difficulty. I’ll be satisfied even if I get a single piece of standard gear in elite purple.”

“Dreamer upstairs, you’re playing with ten people, even if five pieces are dropped by a boss, with a one-off shot at an elite level per day, how many days do you need to grind? Be happy with two or three pieces, let alone a whole set.”

“Considering master level, it looks like Prairie Fire and their gear is falling a lot short. They’re probably stuck now.”

“I definitely agree. This has nothing to do with skill and strategies now.”

“Yes, it seems like it’s insurmountable. I originally thought we could witness a miracle.”

“What a shame. Non-combat crime, even the top players can’t make it to the baseline for grinding at the master level.”

The audiences in the live broadcast and several leaders of guilds that were closely watching the progression and the person in charge of the Carnival from China all sighed in relief.

It’s good that they couldn’t pass it. If it really was passed, the progression of Carnival would become a farce.

When the audience found out that the result was a dead end after several hours, it was certain to cause a huge uproar.

They were helpless. Even though they were part of a gaming company, they could not interfere with any game data and game activities. They could only hope desperately that Li Yao and his team could not pass it and it seemed their wish had come true.

Everyone gathered around a bonfire. While grilling some meat, Li Yao asked, “Why don’t you share what’s happening in the competition side?”

Feng Yi said, “Their progress is not bad. Many teams have managed to get the boss down to 35% health. It’s just the latter Flame Arrow Rain causing their numbers to decrease continually.”

Loveable Dumb Dumb asked, “What about the monsters they summon?”

Pie in the Sky cleared his throat and said, “I should be the one to answer this. The Blood Crow in elite mode only has 100,000 HP and she only summons four monsters at a time, and they are elites. Of course, the elite version of Blood Crow isn’t as tricky as the one we’re dealing with. She’s completely ordinary – the MT just needs to hold aggro, occasionally jumping back a bit to create some distance.”

Everyone was speechless. Da Vinci said, “There’s so much of a difference just because of a difficulty level? Uncle, do you have a solution? If not, I think we should just disband.”

Loveable Dumb Dumb hit Da Vinci’s forehead and said seriously, “A little girl like you should have more determination. We’ve just died once and you want to disband.”

“What the hell, how can you, a little girl, call me little.” Da Vinci was annoyed, being called immature by someone six or seven years younger.

Everyone started laughing, watching them fighting.

“Well, I do have an idea that we could try.” Li Yao thought for a moment and spoke. They couldn’t reach the gear standard and couldn’t use the strategy from his past life. So they had to come up with a new plan.

“Are you even human? You came up with a solution so quickly.” As a commander, Pie in the Sky felt defeated…
