Absolute Destiny Game-Chapter 1394 - 34: Heavy Armament Assault

The next day - Headquarters of the Iron Blood Immortal Alliance • Conference Room

The morning sunlight poured through the crystal dome, illuminating the entire conference room. On both sides of the long table sat the core members of the Iron Blood Immortal Alliance, all Golden Immortals.

Behind them stood dozens of Profound Immortals, who were the reserve team members.

Everyone maintained a calm expression, but the air was filled with a heavy tension typical of pre-battle anticipation.

The Full-time Expert stood at the command platform, pointing at the tactical map projected on the wall, laying out the strategies.

"Alright, everyone. Today, I hope it’s the last time we hold this kind of ’exploration meeting.’ Let’s aim to clear the Ancestor Dragon Relic today—just this once."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over every person present: "Yesterday, Sui Feng and I carefully discussed for an entire afternoon, reviewed the battle footage from the past dozens of encounters three times. As it stands, there is still significant room for optimization in our strategy. The new tactics for today must be remembered by everyone."

The map on the wall switched to a demonstration of the first phase of the battle.

"First phase, we just proceed as usual. Everyone can get through this phase with their eyes closed by now, so I won’t elaborate further—basically, no pressure."

The map switched to the second phase.

"Second phase—this is where we’ve been stuck the longest." The Full-time Expert’s voice became serious, "Where’s the problem? Our output is still a bit low. Little Monsters are too slow to clear, especially the Four Dragon Kings, they remain undefeated each time, leading to losses in this phase."

"So I’ve decided to adopt a ’three tanks and four healers’ tactical configuration this time." He quickly annotated in the formation column, "I’ll pull the Big Dragon, Tie Gu will handle the Four Dragon Kings, and A Wen will tackle the Dragon’s remnants. Everyone else should switch entirely to Attack!"

"Remember the attack priority: The first priority is the Little Dragon, everyone initiates burst and removes it immediately; second priority is the Four Dragon Kings, concentrate fire and break them one by one; third priority is the Dragon’s remnants; and finally, the Big Dragon itself."

"Juzi, Xiao Dongfeng, Er Pao, Fengliu Ke—you all will join the group this time. You may not be Golden Immortals yet, but among the Profound Immortals, you are top-notch and can participate in the battle. Even if you can’t contribute to damaging the Boss, you can at least help clear the Little Monsters. The Little Dragons in the second phase are numerous; an extra person means extra power."

Those named responded promptly.

The map switched to the third phase.

"Third phase, everyone responded well previously, no major issues. Continue as normal, but be mindful of the threat changes during the phase transition—don’t act too quickly, allow the tanks to secure aggro before outputting."

The map switched to the fourth phase.

"Fourth phase—currently the phase where the most losses occur." The Full-time Expert pointed to the densely marked areas on the map, "Our previous tactic was to spread out and dodge skills, resulting in everyone fighting on their own, and those lacking survival skills would easily fall when targeted, keeping the casualty rate high."

He took a deep breath: "This time, I have decided not to spread out the positioning, but to concentrate it instead, and let everyone use defense skills to tough it through."

A team member raised their hand, one of the main tanks of the guild, the Golden Immortal-level Mixed Element Immortal "Iron Bone Clang": "Leader, with concentrated positioning... isn’t the damage from Dragon Soul Breath too high to withstand concentratedly? If our Defense Spell can’t hold it, what if we get wiped out?"

"Good question." The Full-time Expert was prepared, displaying an equipment screenshot, "Look at this—Heavenly Gang Mirror."

The screen showed a palm-sized bronze ancient mirror, its surface shimmering with faint golden light.

[Heavenly Gang Mirror, Third-grade Immortal Artifact. When activated, it creates a barrier that absorbs up to 500,000 points of damage within sixty seconds, with a cooldown time of thirty minutes.]

"Before, we only had two, which couldn’t withstand the Dragon Soul Breath of the fourth phase, but yesterday the logistics team worked overtime to craft three more."

He raised five fingers: "Now we have a total of five Heavenly Gang Mirrors. Opening all five simultaneously can absorb 2,500,000 points of damage! Coupled with everyone simultaneously activating Protective Magic and reduction skills, it’s enough to withstand the Dragon Soul Breath in the fourth phase." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The room was filled with whispers of excitement.

"Five... that should be sufficient."

"Finally, the logistics team has pulled through!"

"We’ve got this now!"

The map switched to the fifth phase.

"Fifth phase—this is the most troublesome stage." The Full-time Expert’s voice carried a touch of somberness, "At this stage the Boss doesn’t fall for taunts and possesses a certain level of wisdom, making its threat completely random—whoever has the highest output gets attacked. In previous explorations, it was during this phase that the chaotic aggro led to tanks losing control, resulting in team wipes."

He turned his gaze to Xiao Jie: "Fortunately, Sui Feng has thought of a solution. This time, he’ll be responsible for pulling the Boss."

Xiao Jie nodded, stood up, and pointed at several marked spots on the map: "During the fifth phase, the Ancestor Dragon Relic partially regains its wisdom, no longer maintaining its previous shell mode, and therefore can autonomously choose the most threatening target, unaffected by player skills.

Previously, we chose to have the guild leader forcefully pull aggro with Daluo Power, but the Ancestor Dragon Relic clearly saw through this tactic, always directly targeting the backline. The Boss’s strength surpasses Daluo, making it difficult for the leader alone to safeguard the team.

However, the Ancestor Dragon Relic hasn’t truly gained wisdom; it only possesses some residual combat instincts, which ironically can be exploited. During the last exploration, when I activated the Phoenix Dharma Aspect, the Ancestor Dragon Relic immediately locked onto me, clearly due to the phoenix being a mortal enemy to the Dragon Clan, causing the relic to instinctively react to such foes.
