Chapter 178

"So we must be fast!"

Only when truly in the wind and snow could one know how many monsters were around.

The monsters were similar to mountain apes, with huge bodies, each nearly three meters tall.

With thick fur and long, sharp fangs exposed.

Appraisal was useless. Judging from their aura, Li Yao estimated their strength was equivalent to those flying insect monsters, ordinary monsters around Level 35.

Snow-covered, besides piles of snow, nothing could be seen in the surroundings.

In such an environment, Li Yao and his group were extremely conspicuous.

In just a few minutes, dozens of mountain apes roared and charged toward Li Yao and the others.

Xue Xue Jiuling reacted quickly, instantly using the Knight's signature skill.

Taunt.

The mountain apes' eyes turned red, as if stimulated, and they charged directly toward Xue Xue Jiuling.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Several muffled sounds rang out.

Three-digit damage values appeared above Xue Xue Jiuling's head.

She swallowed a health potion, and Xu Fei's healing spell landed on her.

"Poison Poison Mage, use area-of-effect slow skills."

"The rest of you, focus fire on the monster in front of the Knight!"

A dark green energy bomb was released from the staff in Fu Hong's hand, drawing a parabola in the air.

It landed on the ground, instantly splashing a large area of bubbling liquid.

The monsters stepped on it as if stepping into a swamp, their speed slowed, and they were distanced by the group.

At the same time,

Li Yao and the other two class holders, after receiving the order, launched an attack on the mountain ape in front of Xue Xue Jiuling at the first moment.

The Immortal Thunder Mouse turned into a bolt of lightning, its speed even exceeding the skill's projectile speed, instantly sticking to the mountain ape!

At this moment, the attacks of the two class holders barely landed on this mountain ape.

Thunder flashed, and three damage values appeared simultaneously!

【-1253】

【-1704】

【-】

Seeing this scene, everyone turned around, eyes wide, staring tightly at Li Yao.

"No way!"

"Buddy?"

The 【Thunder Armor】 skill allows the Immortal Thunder Mouse to transform into a lightning form, gaining high movement speed while passing through enemies to deal 500% magic damage.

With the blessing of 【The Ends of the Earth are Like Neighbors】, dealing this kind of damage wasn't strange.

But Fu Hong and the others didn't think so.

This kind of damage value

was the damage they could only deal by using their ultimate skills with full force.

This kid just dealt it so casually?

"Fu Hong, what are you staring at? Hurry up and follow!"

Having dealt near-lethal damage in one hit, Xue Xue Jiuling punched and killed it, already running dozens of meters away.

Xu Fei was also stunned for a moment before reacting and reminding them.

Hearing this, the group hurried to follow.

After breaking through the first wave of monsters,

Xu Fei looked at Li Yao at the back of the team.

"Li Yao, I know you wanted to help the team break through that mountain ape."

"But this kind of skill, don't throw it so recklessly next time. Who knows, it might have a big use later!"

"Hmm."

Li Yao nodded lightly, not caring much.

On the contrary, Fu Hong,

understanding Xu Fei's meaning, immediately stood tall again.

"He's just a freshman, he doesn't even know when to use what skill!"

With the high-and-mighty attitude of an experienced person, he looked at Li Yao: "These monsters at the foot of the mountain are just the weakest tier of Sorrowful Snow Mountain. You used your ultimate skill now; what will you do when you encounter those monsters on the mountain later?"

"Top scholar, you still have a lot to learn."

"Pfft!"

Xue Xue Jiuling, running at the front, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

These people were so similar to Wang Wang Shihui back then.

But it couldn't be blamed on them.

It was just that Li Yao's output ability didn't conform to common sense at all; anyone who saw it would think it was an ultimate skill!

"Alright, stop talking nonsense in the dungeon." Xu Fei interrupted Fu Hong impatiently. "Li Yao was also doing it for the team, so he gave up an important skill. Let's speed up next."

"When encountering monsters on the road, Poison Poison Mage, don't wait for them to get close before using slow skills. Don't worry about how many you hit; just ensure the one directly in front of the Knight enters a slowed state."

Fu Hong nodded: "Okay."

The team accelerated their advance.

Soon, monsters flew over and surrounded them.

"Swamp Imprisonment!"

Fu Hong roared, throwing the skill, and the three in front instantly fell into a slowed state.

"Well done! Knight, use Charge!"

Xue Xue Jiuling found the gap between the monsters and used the Charge skill to knock the monsters on both sides away.

The group seized the opportunity and rushed through directly.

By the time the monsters recovered, they were already long gone.

In this way, the advance speed was greatly accelerated.

In just thirty minutes, they could already see the foot of the mountain.

"Damn, what is this kid doing?!"

Looking at the scene ahead, Fu Hong couldn't help but curse in anger.

At the foot of the mountain,

there was a class holder holding a crossbow, relying on high movement speed, pulling a large group of mountain ape monsters behind him, looking like he was about to block the intersection.

"Sister Fei, what do you say? Should we charge?" Xue Xue Jiuling asked.

Xu Fei stared intently at that class holder.

"Judging from the clothes, it should be a member of the Sizaibao Academy from the India region."

"If we charge through, are you confident?"

Xue Xue Jiuling frowned and pondered for a while, looked at Fu Hong, and said: "If the Poison Poison Mage's skill release is a bit more accurate, it shouldn't be a problem."

They had already failed several times on the road, but at the time there weren't many monsters, so even if they failed, it was just a waste of time to kill the monsters.

But here, with the Indian class holder intentionally pulling monsters, hundreds of mountain apes were gathered.

Once they failed, the team would instantly be surrounded by monsters.

"What do you mean by my skill being a bit more accurate?" Fu Hong was unconvinced and argued, "Even if I missed some, my hit rate is definitely high among mages!"

"I'm just stating a fact."

Xue Xue Jiuling didn't want to talk nonsense with him.

Fu Hong felt Xue Xue Jiuling was deliberately finding fault, and his eyes glanced at Li Yao's side.

"There are people in the team who aren't doing anything, yet you still blame me?"

"I said to change him long ago, but some people didn't want to."
