Chapter 1120: Chapter 1122 Tacit Cooperation_1 Chapter 1120: Chapter 1122 Tacit Cooperation_1 Just as Song Jian and his companions braced themselves for battle, a huge swarm of bats flew out from the mist-enshrouded town. With wingspans of at least a meter, their crimson eyes and sharp fangs made them look especially ferocious.

“Abyss Bat Demons, these are level fifty-eight monsters, everyone be careful!” Song Ya cried out from behind them.

A thought crossed Song Jian’s mind. Song Ya was only level forty-six, but she could see through the strengths of the Abyss Bat Demons that were twelve levels higher than her. Clearly, Song Ya must also possess a scouting ability similar to the Eye of Insight.

“Perfect timing!” Yu Rui, wielding his magic staff, advanced instead of retreating. He chanted spells while taking several steps forward, and bolts of lightning burst forth from his staff, twisting together in mid-air and quickly forming a massive Thunder Web, which he sent flying towards the Abyss Bat Demons that were swooping down.

Song Jian originally wanted to use the Thousand Swords Art to finish off the twenty or thirty Abyss Bat Demons in front of him, but seeing Yu Rui making the first move, his mind shifted. He simply commanded the stone golem Gulu to charge forward and stopped himself, retreating to the side instead.

Song Ya glanced at Song Jian and immediately understood that he probably wanted to gauge the strength of their group. She turned her head and gave Guo Zhiqiang a meaningful look.

Guo Zhiqiang let out a loud roar while holding his sword and shield, flames like fighting spirit bursting forth from his body. He charged at the fastest bat demon of the Abyss.

His speed was extremely quick, using a charge skill similar to that of a warrior class. In the blink of an eye, he was upon the monster several meters away. His shield came crashing down, smashing the Abyss Bat Demon that was diving down to attack onto the ground, and a symbol of dizziness appeared above the monster’s head.

Before the other Abyss Bat Demons could react, a pale blue Thunder Web, flickering with electric light, enveloped most of them. Even the few that escaped the net were struck by the exploding lightning from the net, their bodies uncontrollably rushing towards it.

A series of damage numbers floated up from the heads of these Abyss Bat Demons. The Thunder Web was not only powerful in attack but also came with a paralyzing effect that could control them for at least six seconds or more.

At that moment, Song Ya suddenly let out a playful laugh and stepped forward. Her dual guns continuously fired, the strong recoil causing them to swing dramatically as if she were firing in bursts.

But before Song Ya, a cone-shaped barrage emerged. Every second, fifty to sixty bullets were fired from the barrels, shooting forward and enveloping all the Abyss Bat Demons within the barrage.

…

A series of damage numbers floated up from the heads of the Abyss Bat Demons, their Vitality Points visibly dropping rapidly. Five or six seconds later, the light of the Thunder Web gradually dimmed, the paralyzing effect wore off, and all the hatred of the Abyss Bat Demons was attracted to Song Ya.

A large group of the monsters screeched, rushing toward Song Ya like a dark cloud, completely ignoring Guo Zhiqiang, who they had surrounded in the center.

“Son of a bitch!” Suddenly, Guo Zhiqiang bellowed, the fiery fighting spirit around him exploding instantly, sweeping like a wild wind in all directions.

This was a taunt skill of Guo Zhiqiang as a follower of the War God, similar to an enhanced version of taunting. It caused forced taunting of monsters within a five-meter radius while also inflicting massive damage.

Moreover, this taunting skill had domain priority, meaning that even if enemies had skills to resist taunting, they wouldn’t be effective if their tier was lower than this skill.

The skills of a War God Follower often had domain priority, which was actually a manifestation of divine power. Though not true divine power, but rather a weakened version of it, it still gave War God Followers a significant advantage when dealing with other classes.

The Abyssal Bat Demons, which were initially diving at Song Ya, now turned back towards Guo Zhiqiang. However, after he released his taunt ability, all the Abyssal Bat Demons had a “Damage Reduction” debuff appear over their heads, lasting a full ten seconds. At the same time, a thin yellow light akin to an armor made of fighting spirit reappeared on Guo Zhiqiang’s body, greatly enhancing his defense.

Song Ya’s skills continued to harvest the Vitality Points of the Abyssal Bat Demons, while on the other side, Yu Rui began preparing her next large-scale skill.

Song Jian observed carefully from the side. The damage the Stone Golem Gulu dealt was not weak, constantly casting Earth magic, but in the face of the three-person tacit cooperation, the Stone Golem Gulu could at best play a supporting role. The real decisive factor in this battle was still the synergistic coordination of Song Ya and her two companions.

The Abyssal Bat Demons almost stood no chance of counter-attacking. All the combat rhythm was controlled by Song Ya and her team. Within a mere thirty seconds, the monsters, which were over ten levels higher than Song Ya and her comrades, fell from the sky one after another, turning into bodies.

Song Jian, standing on the side, couldn’t help but nod. It seemed that Song Ya and her companions were very familiar with each other’s skills, their control abilities connecting almost flawlessly, maximizing their theoretical control time. When one person used a control skill, the other two released large-scale attack skills. This kind of tacit cooperation definitely couldn’t be formed in just three to five days.

However, Song Jian also noticed a weakness in their team–that there was no healer. If the battle dragged on too long, the outcome could potentially be reversed.

When the last Abyssal Bat Demon fell from the sky, Guo Zhiqiang was left with less than one third of his Vitality Points. He grinned at Song Jian and pulled out an Advanced Healing Potion from his inventory, gulping it down.

“The battle is over, just eat some food, why waste an Advanced Healing Potion? I’ve told you so many times, but you just won’t listen,” Song Ya complained while heading towards the corpses of the Abyssal Bat Demons.

“The drop rate has really increased a lot!” Yu Rui said, her eyes shining next to the Abyssal Bat Demon corpses. Among the loot, there were six or seven items sparkling with a golden glow, along with seven or eight Silver Quality pieces of equipment. The rest were items of blue, green, and white.

“Eighteen, nineteen, twenty,” Song Ya counted the spoils with a joyful smile and turned to Song Jian, “There are forty-six items here, city lord, shall we split them equally?”

Song Jian shook his head with a smile, recalled his Stone Golem Gulu, and said to Song Ya, “I didn’t do much, so I don’t need these spoils. You three split them.”

Seeing that Song Ya was about to speak, Song Jian waved his hand and said, “Those things are of no use to me, just take them all.”

Seeing Song Jian say this, Song Ya joyfully took all the loot and picked out a few pieces suitable for her and her teammates, donning them immediately.

The other two, seeing Song Ya take all the loot, didn’t say anything; it looked like the trio had their own method of distributing spoils.

Song Jian nodded slightly in his mind, and after the three had recovered, they continued along the cobblestone road of the town, moving forward together.
