Note: Andariel was once a high-ranking female priest of the cathedral. After submitting to the Demon God, she was transformed by the force of the Demon World into one of the four lesser demon lords. This is merely the weakest projection of Andariel.
“She has two more skills than in Elite Mode and tens of thousands more in health points. Looks like we’ve got another tough one,” Feng Yi noted.
“The announcement for the first kill in Elite Mode hasn’t been issued yet, so those teams must still be struggling,” said Li Yao. “But we cannot afford to be complacent. They’re likely closing in. Prepare your buffs, we’ll aim to get through in one try.”
“Uncle, don’t fool around. How is it possible to succeed in one try?” Da Vinci was skeptical. The previous bosses were extremely difficult. If it weren’t for Li Yao, they wouldn’t have been able to defeat this boss at their current level.
“Confidence. Do you understand the concept of confidence? We must always approach each battle with the determination to win. Give one hundred percent concentration, especially you. You’re supposed to be an elite. Your healing is only two-thirds that of the guardian. How do you even play?” Li Yao tapped her head. “Grow a brain, will you? If your techniques are lacking, practice. But this is just clear slacking.”
“Hmm, she’s not focused at all. She kept moving her mouth without making sound – she’s definitely private messaging,” the gullible Tongtong added.
“What are you laughing at?” Li Yao scolded as he saw the Angel of Guardian smiling. “Do you have too much mana to burn through? Do mana potions grow on trees? Look at how much you overheal. You claim to be an expert, but you would be the number one cause of our team’s defeat if the battle lasted any longer.”
“Xiayao, next time don’t get distracted by the viewer comments when you deal damage. I understand you’re a Necromancer, but could you please position yourself and command your pets better? Your output could be greatly improved. Do I always have to be the one commanding?”
“Big Stone, you’re a support tank. Stop trying to show off, it just confuses the aggro.”
“Li Jie, you’re doing well with your frost mage, but your rotation’s slightly off. Try working through it, studying the rotation could increase your output.”
“Shadow Dance, I know times are hard for you, but surely you can afford to apply poison, right? Remember to do it next time.”
“Brother Hai, you dare to laugh? Since you joined the team, you’ve barely made a contribution. This boss doesn’t give you any excuse to slack off.”
“Why can’t you all learn from the meticulous attitudes of Fruits and Tongtong? It’s embarrassing to be outdone by a child.”
Li Yao reprimanded everyone at an almost rapid-fire pace, leaving the audience in the live chat dumbstruck.
“Alright then, let’s get this over with in one try,” declared Li Yao. “Fruits, go!”
Fruits the Knight quickly approached Andariel.
Andariel slowly rose to her feet and turned her head, startling everyone present.
From the back, she appeared like a beautiful woman, but when she turned around, she had the face of a demon with long red hair standing on end and green fangs.
What was originally thought to be a cloak turned out to be four spiky arms, adding to the two in the front, she had a total of six arms.
“Pathetic mortals, how many times must you learn that your struggles are in vain?”
A sharp voice echoed throughout the temple.
Bang, bang, bang…
A series of green poison bombs rushed at Fruits the Knight
Sword of Divine Punishment!
Fruits the Knight’s body was suddenly airborne in a ray of golden light, evading several poison bombs.
Then, like a descending god, Fruits the Knight landed a heavy blow on Andariel.
“I despise the damned Holy Light.”
Click, click, click…
Her four spike-like arms brutally collided with the Shield of Fruits the Knight, and then abruptly ripped it apart, releasing an extremely sharp and piercing sound.
Fruits the Knight’s health plummeted instantly. Two healers rushed over with healing and damage reduction spells.
“I’ve secured the aggro.”
With Fruits the Knight’s statement, Big Stone and Sea and Sky charged in, and Shadow Dance teleported behind the boss with a shadow step and unleashed a set of skills.
Li Yao’s earlier words seemed to have an effect. He had observed them early on. They had initially adopted an attitude of not expecting to clear the boss on the first try and were just trying to test the boss’s abilities, inevitably leading to some slackening. So, he gave them a tongue-lashing.
“Pull the boss to the edge,” Li Yao commanded as he dealt damage.
“Roger.”
Fruits the Knight slowly retreated towards the edge while the others furiously continued their attacks.
“Weak insects, you will always be my most delicious food.”
Andariel’s body emitted a green glow.
“Everyone, watch your positioning,” Li Yao warned.
Highly Toxic Bomb!
A circle of stinky poisonous water bullets flew out around Andariel.
Despite Li Yao’s warning, Big Stone and Shadow Dance in melee range were hit, and Da Vinci at a distance was also hit.
“Anyone who’s been hit, stay away from the group. Don’t dawdle, hurry up!’” Li Yao frowned. “I understand if the melee fighters got hit, but even with a trajectory this slow, you still managed to get hit.”
“Big brother, I’m complaining. She was still private messaging just now,” Tongtong reported.
“Turn it off. All of you, turn off your private chat. If I find out anyone is still private messaging during our team fight, they’ll be kicked out immediately!” Li Yao shouted.
“It didn’t affect anything.”
“What? You think your actions had no impact?” Li Yao snorted.
“It didn’t cause any damage.” Before Da Vinci could finish,
