Chapter 427: Chapter 296: Killing the Nightmare, Bizarre Parasitism! (Subscribe Please)

Veteran players from the first four tests all knew that the tankiest player currently wasn’t one of those who loved to fight, but rather a low-profile Life Player.

Da Lang doesn’t drink medicine!

By crafting equipment, he had single-handedly propped up Celestial Realm. One could say he was the face of Life Players nowadays.

To counter the Nightmares here, they needed Da Lang doesn’t drink medicine to act as the tank and figure out their attack methods.

Da Lang doesn’t drink medicine, unperturbed, scratched his head and said, "Then I suppose I’ll give it a try."

As he walked out clad in his gear, the Fifth Test Players all turned to look.

"Is this the strongest tank, Da Lang? Why does he look a bit... simple?"

"Idiot, don’t underestimate our Da Lang. His defense is the strongest among all players. It wouldn’t be easy for all of us combined to break through his defense."

"What’s more, the equipment he crafts has many Rare properties. The only pity is that he only crafts equipment for Celestial Realm players."

"During the Fourth Test, many players started to follow the path of handcrafted equipment, but sadly, they’ve fallen behind. Da Lang is the only Level 10 Artisan now."

...

Under the gaze of everyone, Da Lang doesn’t drink medicine entered the Nightmare’s attack range.

The Nightmare also launched its attack immediately, piercing through Da Lang’s body in an instant. All the players who saw this tensed up.

Da Lang stood still. His body slowly turned black and then plummeted to the ground.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, his body dissolved into black smoke and vanished.

Everyone: !!!

What’s happening?

Even Da Lang can’t withstand the Nightmare’s attack?

At this moment, the players were all taken aback. This outcome was beyond their expectations.

The strongest tank player, dead just like that, so inexplicably?

Chaotic Dance Steps furrowed her brows, went straight to the Lingxiao Hall members, and asked Neighbor Six, "Did you figure anything out?"

Neighbor Six snapped back to reality and shook his head with a sigh.

They had all seen the Nightmare’s method of attack. It simply passed through Da Lang’s body. But just like that, Da Lang was dead. Without even a scratch.

It seemed as though neither physical defense nor Magic Immunity had any effect. This led to two possibilities. The first was that the Nightmare’s attack exceeded the limits of physical defense and Magic Immunity, resulting in an instant kill. The second was that its method of attack wasn’t classified as physical or magical.

Neither outcome was what they wanted to see.

"This is tricky."

Neighbor Six pondered, "To know for sure, I’m afraid we can only wait for that Fifth Test Player and Da Lang to resurrect and come back to tell us."

Indeed, right now, they were only watching and weren’t aware of the true nature of the Nightmares. Only those who died at the hands of the Nightmare would know. So, all they could do was wait.

Before long, Da Lang and the other player hurried back, both wearing expressions of confusion, seemingly also unsure of how they had died.

The Newbie Player from the Fifth Test cursed as soon as he arrived, "Did the Damn Game Designer’s brain short-circuit? Why create such a thing? To instantly kill me?"

Many players around chuckled, claiming he was too rash and had merely courted death.

Da Lang doesn’t drink medicine came over to the veteran players, scratching his head as he explained, "The System just notified me that I had been hit by a ’Nightmare attack,’ and it was a forced death."

Nightmare attack?

Was it that moment the Nightmare phased through his body?

You’re deemed dead just by being passed through?

How are we supposed to play like this?

"Any other notifications?" Chaotic Dance Steps asked, frowning.

Da Lang shook his head. "Nothing else, just forced death. It seems like defense is utterly useless against them."

Ignoring defense, huh?

That meant the enemy’s attacking method likely didn’t fall under physical or magical damage. This made things quite tricky.

Neighbor Six frowned and said, "Actually, there’s another method. We could have a group rush in. The Nightmare’s attack is fast, but if a group of us goes up, as long as someone manages to strike during an opening—whether with physical or magical attacks—we just need to ensure it does some damage."

Hearing this, the players hesitated. It wasn’t that they were unwilling to try, but the cost of this trial was too great. Dying once cost 100 Contribution Points. Even the veteran players didn’t have enough Contribution Points to squander like that.

"We’ll do it!" Junlin said, "People from Lingxiao Hall will try first. If it works, we’ll go all out. But remember to act quickly and avoid drawing too many Nightmares."

They had enough Contribution Points to spend. If they died, they could just respawn and try again. The only worry was the sheer number of Nightmares here. If all the Nightmares attacked, their small group might face a Team Wipe.

It’s just the start of the Fifth Test, and we’re playing for stakes this high already?

However, there was no alternative right now. This Task was the first official task of the Fifth Test. They had to complete it and also determine if the Nightmares were valuable. Could killing one even allow them to recoup their losses?

The members of Lingxiao Hall gathered and, under the watchful eyes of all the players, rushed towards the first Nightmare.

The moment they stepped into the Nightmare’s attack range, the Nightmare immediately unleashed its attack, piercing right through Old Mo, who was at the forefront.
