Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1270: Twilight Glades Central Region

Xu Feng’s jaw nearly dropped to the ground when he read the system prompt.

”The Terror Descent... Carmen actually triggered this mutant boss event?!” He was rendered speechless at the situation.

He remembered this open event vividly, in which many players were sacrificed.

Naturally, the sacrifice players didn’t succumb to the mutant boss, but rather to fellow PKing. Granted that the mutant boss was in an open field, many players sought to gain the greatest rewards.

Moreover, the mutant boss didn’t send any broadcast announcement.

But still, it was noticed by many players. Because in the past timeline, the mutant boss emerged when many players had already advanced to Tier 2.

The difficulty of this mutant boss didn’t lie in its durability, but also because many players were killing each other to trigger the death penalty upon them.

After all, dying in this special environment and receiving no revival meant a timeout in the real world.

In the old timeline, it was a critical point to ensure players remained active to strive for territory and resources. Being locked out as a Tier 2 player meant crippling their affiliation’s power and influence.

”Curses, they’re actually so far away from me!” Xu Feng opened the guild map, which specifically helped locate the guild members.

Under the Terror Descent’s environmental effect, the system map was temporarily disabled.

This was to increase the difficulty and prevent players from abusing the system map to strategize their positioning.

While Xu Feng lamented his legs to head toward Carmen’s location, the latter was currently undergoing an intense battle.

”Maintain the battle formation and distance!” Carmen instructed the Elite Members in her team. ”The Terrorizer Machine’s damage could easily annihilate your health points in one go. Tanks are to be careful and make sure to have a constant magic shield active.”

”Yes, Commander!” The Tanks adhered to Carmen’s instruction and activated multiple magic shields.

The enemy in front of them dealt piercing physical damage, but it only happened occasionally. Instead, their constant magic damage was like a heavy hitter.

Those with weak magic defense were all weakened by the aftermath and lost a big chunk of their health points.

”Commander, our support isn’t going to be enough!” Blue Star, the leader of Star Team and a Gunner class, exclaimed.

”Indeed, with the current rate. Our team would be wiped out.” The Night Team leader, Dark Night, who used his Assassin skills to scrutinize the enemy, realized they were completely not up to par.

Their damage could barely even break 5% every 2 minutes. Yet the boss themselves regenerated 2% of their health points every 1 minute.

In other words, they were only dealing with 1% every 2 minutes. More importantly, the damage output was mainly coming from Carmen.

The rest of the DPS classes couldn’t even surpass the enemy’s defense attributes to deal enough damage.

”I know what you are concerned about.” Carmen naturally understood their worries. She had also planned to call for a retreat to gather enough manpower to raid this Terrorizer Machine later on.

However, right when she was about to call for reinforcement, she noticed Xu Feng was suddenly available.

What did that mean?

From unavailable to available, it could only mean one thing.

Her luck was kicking in, and it was time for her Guild Leader to take the mantle and help them raid a mutant boss.

’As long as we stalled for enough time for the Guild Leader to come, then the situation would reverse.’ Carmen was very confident in Xu Feng’s ability, especially in the fact that she believed he had definitely advanced into Tier 2.

She didn’t even bother to check whether he succeeded or not in the advancement because she knew very well her Guild Leader always had a plan stacked on top of another plan and even more plans as backup.

”Keep your distance. The Guild Leader is coming soon!” Carmen announced, giving the members a ray of hope.

She saw their morale was rather low, so she directly announced his arrival instead of keeping it a surprise. Otherwise, she feared they might all get wiped out.

And sure enough, the members all erupted into cheers.

Their motivation was revitalized, and they became more energetic than ever.

”The Guild Leader is coming here?”

”Great, it has been a long time since we got to raid with the Guild Leader!”

”With the Guild Leader’s power, we can definitely raid this Terrorizer Machine!”

The intense reaction stunned Carmen on the spot.

’As expected... even if you’re powerful. If you don’t have that leadership talent and natural aura that put people at ease, it’s impossible to lead.’ She lost to Xu Feng in this very aspect completely.

Just by mentioning Xu Feng’s name, these members seemed to have taken drugs and become a different person.

”Tanks, I’ve got your back in the magic shield. Just be wary of its machine guns and use the zig-zag movement to avoid it!”

”Got it!”

As the support class gave advice to the front lines, a harmonious cooperation was in the making.

”What’s with them?” Startled, Carmen turned to Blue Star and asked.

”Commander, they’re trying their best to impress the Guild Leader.” Blue Star smiled awkwardly.

”Even my Gun Knight is actively participating and having a voice.” She pointed at Kailey with an exasperated look.

”Hah, I’m speechless...” Carmen twitched her mouth and was about to speak further until she saw Blue Star rushing ahead to deal DPS.

Dumbfounded, she turned to Dark Night, who scratched his head embarrassingly.

”Umm, Commander, I think I’ll be going ahead to scout and check for any Critical Flesh Points.” Dark Night gave an excuse and entered the battlefield.

Just like that, everyone became overly active to curry favor with Xu Feng.

”My reputation really isn’t worth a fart in front of the Guild Leader.” She sighed in defeat.

”Whose reputation isn’t worth a fart?” Amidst her disappointment, she suddenly heard a voice from behind.

”You’re here, Guild Leader.” She flashed a genuine smile and clasped her hands.

”My little Demoness is calling for help. I naturally needed to run with all my might to come here.” Xu Feng adjusted his glasses and glanced at the battlefield up ahead.
