Chapter 499: Elite Enemies
Chapter 499: Elite Enemies
When faced with such an ominous and gloomy environment, the voice that Xu Feng echoed was like a calming tranquilizer for them.
The ones who had been with Xu Feng in the same group felt the most relaxed, given that they faced the damnable Elite Golem Wardens.
Contrary to the Wardens, the other elite enemies stationed around the Boss, Golem Sentinel, looked like a joke in comparison.
"Raid Leader, do I need to focus on the battle and stop the commentary?" Amidst the tension, OneManMedia suddenly walked toward Xu Feng and asked a critical question.
Since he was the streamer, recording the raid to a live audience, he needed to know if his role would be changed.
"You can multitask." Xu Feng flatly responded. "You are free to continue commentary, and occasionally chunk out some damages to the enemies, but no need to put your full attention on it. I'll inform you specifically if I need you for something."
"Understood, Raid Leader." OneManMedia quickly nodded his head.
He wasn't that dense to not comprehend that he was free to continue commentary, but it would be nice to still provide some assistance to the team.
And before everyone could officially enter the stage to trigger the Golem Sentinel, Xu Feng commanded everyone to start buffing. Clerics aside, the other classes should use their own buffing skills.
"Besides buffing, those who have their potions should consume it now. If you run out of it, then come to me for them. But keep in mind that I would be keeping tabs on it and you must fork out double the money after the raid." Xu Feng declared, clearly being a sinister merchant.
Of course, some might be trying to share their potions among themselves, but Xu Fneg's next words made them instantly pause their actions.
"By the way, you would need to continuously consume them, so if you happened to share yours and failed to maintain your status buff. Then I will deduct a lot of Raid Points from you, followed by a public announcement of who caused the raiding to be difficult."

Sure enough, the moment Xu Feng finished his statement, those who were about to click accept on the trade windows, hurriedly closed out the trading.
"Hey, why did you close it?"
"Sorry, but you're on your own. I barely have enough to supply myself, so I can't afford to trade you some."
Similar incidents continued to play out among the members, with many choosing to safeguard their potions. Even those who had been friends for years were denied of any potions when asking for just a few.
It wasn't that they wanted to break off friendship, but they all knew the type of person Xu Feng was.
Without any choices left, many begrudgingly went toward Xu Feng and gladly received a batch of loaned potions.
"Happy to do business with you," Xu Feng gratefully handed them potions with a joyous tone.
While Xu Feng was handing out potions, Blake was stupefied by the scene.
"Was he always like this?" Blake turned to Gentle Wind and asked.
"Yes, he's quite the money-grubber." Gentle Wind nodded. "Despite this, you can't get mad at him since he's very helpful and efficient."
"I suppose that's true…"
Time quickly went by, and soon Xu Feng took on the lead after buffing everyone, including himself.
"Okay, tanks are grouped in 2 or more. Your job is to remain in a perimeter within a square formation. You will aggro the Elite Enemies next to the Golem Sentinel." Xu Feng instructed.
"Huh, but Raid Leader, the range of the elite enemies is too close to the Golem Sentinel. We're going to trigger them regardless." Ardent Lance quickly raised his hand and expressed his concern.
"Relax, the Golem Sentinel won't be activated until we kill more than half of the Elite Enemies. Our job is to take out the nuisance ones that could debuff and immobilize us, which are those Riftborn Sorcerers and Petrifying Wardens." Xu Feng responded calmly.
The Petrifying Wardens were towering stone figures, covered in cracks with glowing blue veins. In a sense, they had a similar appearance to the Elite Golem Wardens, but their abilities were entirely different.
Just like their name had stated, their eyes emit a cold, petrifying gaze, capable of freezing players in place temporarily, and immobilizing them for a few seconds.
The petrified state was a nuisance, given the floors beneath them were capable of shifting constantly. Once petrified and the floor shifted, those who were still in that state and unable to move out in time would fall into the pit, dying in the process.
As for the Riftborn Sorcerers, they were shadowy figures with swirling and void-like bodies. Their faces are obscured by dark hoods and their hands glow with unstable void magic, capable of distorting the space around them.
What made them dangerous was their specialization in distorting players' reality and drainage of their mana with each attack.
Distortion of reality was similar to being hit with a hallucination.
They could mistakenly believe the floors beneath them were shifting, and be forced to move to a safety floor.
However, it could have been a deceiving scene and they were in fact on the safety floor the whole time. Yet due to the distortion, they ended up walking to the bottomless pit.
And Xu Feng identified and based these so-called elites on Iceheart, Ardent Lance, and DeathLingers. Thus, he doubted they could get out of the distortion of reality in time and remain safe.
'They cannot be treated like elites, but also not that worse like an average player.' Xu Feng thought to himself before commanding how to effectively drag and kill these two Elite Enemies.
There were four different types of Elite Enemies surrounding the Golem Sentinel, with the other remaining two being Bladesworn and Stonecrush Brutes. The danger level of these two was negligible, given Xu Feng could easily counter their abilities.
"Okay, if there are no more inquiries, then Tanks, start using your taunt skill." Xu Feng declared and commenced the start of the boss room raid.
