Chapter 374: Tier 6 Master-level Assassin, Zorma Behemoth Appears! (6400)
Cao Xing looked forward to the transformation of Sarah and Bjorn.
Because their breakthroughs would accelerate the speed of clearing out the Ice Nest Monster army.
Next, his speed of acquiring points would also become faster.
And more crucially, in another hour, a large World BOSS, the Zorma Behemoth, would descend!
This thing gives rewards based on output!
Boosting a wave now would allow him to deal more output when dealing with the Zorma Behemoth!
Thus, Cao Xing shouted, "Sarah, Bjorn, Volibear, Little Chuchu, come over here."
The three people and one bear successively came to Cao Xing's side.
He chuckled and said, "Are you ready to possess even greater power?"
Sarah's expression flickered slightly as she respectfully said, "Always ready, respected Lord!"
Meanwhile, Bjorn beside her, with his usually calm heart, couldn't help but become somewhat excited.
"I can't wait anymore, Lord!"
Cao Xing directly pulled out one Master-level Heart of Power and two Expert-level Heart of Strength from his backpack and distributed them.
The three of them took them simultaneously.
Tong Chuchu said happily, "Thank you, Big Brother!"
Bjorn beside her solemnly said, "Many thanks, Lord!"
System prompt appeared.
[Due to your generous gift, Bo Jie, Sun Chaser's loyalty has increased. Current loyalty: 97]
This Dragon Blood Warrior commander's loyalty officially reached 97, leaving the final 3 points to full loyalty.
As for Sarah and Volibear, they were already at full loyalty, so it didn't continue to increase.
Cao Xing nodded slightly, then crushed the other Expert-level Heart of Strength, fusing it into Volibear's body.
The next moment, the three people and one bear on the field all entered the transformation state!
Four powerful auras continuously surged upwards!
Like four volcanoes about to erupt, they continuously brewed powerful strength.
Especially Sarah, this commander-grade assassin already possessed extremely terrifying lethality.
Furthermore, Cao Xing smashed all kinds of resources onto her.
This time, she was about to welcome a Master's transformation!
The aura on her body made people feel bursts of intense heart palpitations.
Like a sharp blade about to be unsheathed, that strong sense of oppression seemed capable of cutting the surrounding air apart, making one shudder with cold.
Including Bjorn and Volibear beside her, bursts of destructive aura continuously erupted from their bodies.
After a few minutes of the transformation process.
The auras on Sarah and Bjorn suddenly interrupted.
Meanwhile, Little Chuchu and Volibear smoothly completed their transformation.
System prompt appeared.
[Your territory member: Tong Chuchu has successfully transformed into a Tier 5 Expert-level creature, basic attributes increased by 100%, health points additionally +50%]
[Your pet: Volibear has successfully transformed into a Tier 5 Expert-level creature, basic attributes increased by 100%, health points +50%]
…
Having successfully broken through, Little Chuchu and Volibear excitedly expressed the joy in their hearts to Cao Xing.
While Sarah and Bjorn appeared dejected.
Two successes, two failures.
Regarding this result, it was within the acceptable range.
Cao Xing chuckled, "Sarah, Bjorn, no need to be depressed, I still have more here."
"You will succeed in your breakthroughs."
Words falling, he once again pulled out one Master-level Heart of Power and one Expert-level Heart of Strength, tossing them to the two!
A look of moved emotion once again surfaced in the eyes of the two as they solemnly accepted them.
Without extra words, they clenched the crystals.
And swore secretly in their hearts that this breakthrough would absolutely not fail!
"Ding! Crack!"
Along with the shattering of the crystal, pure power flowed into their bodies.
The auras of the two once again began to continuously rise!
And this time, it was obviously much smoother than the previous time.
It was as if their accumulation was sufficient, finally falling into place naturally.
System prompt appeared.
[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance successfully transformed into a Tier 6 Master-level powerhouse, basic attributes increased by 100%!]
[Because she completed the sublimation transformation, health points +100%, abnormal status resistance +50%]
[You have acquired a Master-level territory resident (Commander-grade potential), reputation +3000, prosperity +60]
…
[Your territory member: Bo Jie, Sun Chaser successfully transformed into a Tier 5 Expert-level powerhouse, basic attributes increased by 100%]
[Because he completed the sublimation transformation, health points additionally increased by 50%]
…
At this moment, a look of joy once again surfaced in Cao Xing's eyes.
"Very good, the resources I accumulated previously have finally played their corresponding role at this moment."
"This upgrade will make my strength surge explosively!"
It was as if past efforts and accumulation had all turned into solid power at this moment, making one feel exceptionally joyful.
Carrying an excited mood, he glanced at the attributes of the three people and one bear.
[Survivor: Tong Chuchu]
[Race: Blue Star Human]
[Level: Level 40 (Tier 5 Frost Iron Mechanic)]
[Detailed Attributes: Click to view]
…
…
[Cao Xing's Pet: Volibear]
[Race: Beast]
[Level: Level 40 (Tier 5 Boss-grade Creature)]

…
…
[Dragon Blood Warrior: Bo Jie, Sun Chaser]
[Race: Norn]
[Level: Level 40 (Tier 5 Commander-grade Creature)]

[Phantom Assassin: Sarah Blade Dance]
[Race: Dark Elf]
[Level: Level 50 0/1000000 (Tier 6 Commander-grade Creature)]
[Detailed Attributes: Click to expand]
…
…
After reading their attributes, Cao Xing could only sigh with emotion.
"Perverted! Too perverted!"
Among them, Sarah, who had already broken through to Tier 6, was naturally the most terrifying.
A full two million health pool, plus nearly 14,000 attack power, plus Liu Muxue's blessed 2,800 attack, directly piled Sarah's attack power to close to 17,000.
And that nearly 100% critical strike rate.
With this slash down, triggering Coup de Grace, wouldn't it be like playing when instantly killing those mob monsters?
If it was said that previously Sarah alone dealing with that little Ice Dragon would take about 40 minutes to finish off the enemy.
Then according to the current strength estimate, only 25 minutes would be needed!
This is the transformation of Tier 6!
It can be said that the current Sarah has already become the undisputed top output of the territory.
Even Francesca, who is also a Tier 6 commander, cannot compare with her.
Of course, Bjorn's attributes were also extremely terrifying.
Having just reached level 40, his attack power already broke ten thousand.
It's just that his critical strike rate was a bit low; if his critical strike rate were a bit higher, he could even compare output with those ordinary Tier 6 powerhouses.
Cao Xing was extremely satisfied.
Meanwhile, the four people after their breakthroughs felt the surging power within their bodies and were also endlessly joyful.
The others' faces successively carried looks of envy.
Cao Xing glanced over; apart from Sarah and the others, everyone's levels had received quite a bit of improvement.
The first batch of Assam and Andrew had reached level 49, with just the final level left to max out.
The others like Braum, Hilda, Victoria, Isabelle, and so on, were about the same as Cao Xing, around level 46.
Of course, it wasn't to say that once they reached max level, they could all break through.
Because the Master-level Heart of Power in Cao Xing's hands had already been used up.
And there were still 3 Expert-level Heart of Strength remaining.
Cao Xing pondered, "It seems we still need to find more powerful monsters in the near future, otherwise the Heart of Strength needed for so many people to break through will have nowhere to be obtained."
"Currently, places known to have many high-level monsters include that ancient battlefield nearby, and the Lost Royal City beyond the border mentioned by City Lord Oran afar."
"However, the most important thing right now is still the Dragon Challenge. Within these ten days, I must acquire a large amount of points as much as possible, and then establish the combat system within my territory."
Thus, Cao Xing glanced at the time; it was now 16:07 in the afternoon.
There were 53 minutes left until the Zhuo Mas Claw challenge.
Cao Xing quickly ordered, "Old rules, continue to search for more Zhuo Mas Claw, striving to take down another one in the final hour."
Hearing this, everyone successively followed their original teams and split up to act.
The searching efficiency of over a hundred people was quite impressive.
This time was very smooth.
Spending around 8 minutes, the Holy Light Priest Isabelle found an Ice Nest Monster legion in a dense forest.
Upon hearing the news, Cao Xing also quickly brought people to gather over.
When he arrived, there were only 40 minutes left.
He first glanced at his points; currently, they had reached 62,000.
If this wave of Ice Nest Monster legion could be swallowed before five o'clock, then he could acquire nearly 75,000 points.
Thus, Cao Xing quickly ordered, "Sarah, kill Zhuo Mas Claw with full force!"
"Everyone else, let loose and do it!"
Hearing the command, everyone rushed out like fierce tigers.
…
…
Meanwhile.
Harati led the Centaur legion, shuttling back and forth within the grotto.
They chose a passage, yet after twisting and turning, they returned to the original spot.
Kandaer held a sickle in one hand while touching his head with the other, "Damn it! Why is this grotto so huge?"
"Yesterday at the entrance, I discovered some Frost-flower White Crystal Ore, and hurriedly went back to report."
"Fortunately I didn't come in, otherwise with my brain, I would definitely have gotten lost inside."
Hearing this, the Centaur warriors beside him also laughed heartily.
Harati did not speak. She took out a piece of sheepskin paper from the leather bag on her back and began drawing on it.
If looked at closely, one could discover that this sheepskin paper seemed to record the terrain within this grotto, along with the route they took when passing through.
After finishing the drawing, Harati carefully put it away into the leather bag, then said, "Alright, next we will choose another passage to enter."
"Strive to finish exploring this grotto at the fastest speed."
Because the task Cao Xing gave them was to clear out the threats in this grotto and then let the goblins go in to mine.
Therefore, before completely exploring the grotto, they were not considered to have completed the mission.
Hearing this, the Centaurs successively entered another passage.
Not long after penetrating deeper, the familiar crawling sound came over once again.
This time, Harati did not need to give a warning; all Centaurs had made combat preparations.
The next moment, a large number of Cave Giant Lizards swarmed over from the front, back, left, and right of the passage!
…
…
"Freeze in the frozen memories!"
A huge hexagram array with a diameter exceeding fifteen meters appeared in a forest.
Huge ice cones rushed out one after another, also taking away the final life of this Zhuo Mas Claw.
With a 'Bang!', this little Ice Dragon's massive body turned into fragments of frost all over the ground.
Cao Xing let out a breath, "Not bad, under full force burst, we finally managed to clear out the Ice Nest Monsters here before five o'clock."
Compared to the previous 50 minutes to nearly an hour of time it took for them to push down an Ice Nest Monster.
Up to now, it only took 35 minutes to end the battle.
It can be said that the improvement was quite obvious.
Mainly because Sarah broke through to Master, making it much more effortless to deal with Zhuo Mas Claw.
Using only about 25 minutes, she hacked its more than twenty million health pool down to only one million remaining.
Then cooperating with the elite personnel in the team, they instantly killed Zhuo Mas Claw.
After Sarah liberated her combat power, dealing with those ordinary Ice Nest Monsters was even more like a hot knife through butter.
Coupled with the addition of three Tier 5 powerhouses in the team, the output capability surged explosively!
Therefore, their battle speed also obtained a significant improvement.
A smile curved up at the corner of his mouth, and he quickly ordered, "Alright, everyone start cleaning the battlefield."
Words falling, everyone successively began to take action.
Taking three minutes, they quickly finished cleaning the battlefield and piled all the loot together.
Cao Xing also walked forward and picked up the loot all over the ground.
[Acquired: Ice Dragon Core (Orange) * 1]
[Obtained: dragon rock ore (Gold) * 1325]
[Obtained: Ice Dragon Mark * 112832]
[Obtained…]
…
Looking at the large pile of extra materials in his backpack, a smile curved at the corners of his mouth.
"We cleared a total of 5.8 Ice Nest Monster legions today, and the loot is pretty good."
"Just the Ice Dragon Marks yielded nearly 600,000, and my points have reached 76,000."
"That's enough for me to redeem more than seventy Star Country swordsman recruitment scrolls."
Thinking of this, his mood improved even more.
Moreover, there are still 9 days left for this 'Zhuo Mas Claw' points challenge.
Following today's pace, there will be at least over 70,000 points every day, maybe even more.
Because the strength of these Ice Nest Monster legions has now been determined.
Coupled with the fact that after digesting today's point gains, his strength can get another boost.
While ensuring the safety of the territory, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue can split their forces to fight.
Calculated this way, in ten days, a million points probably won't be a problem at all!
And Cao Xing can even directly redeem one thousand advanced troop recruitment scrolls!
Thinking of this, Cao Xing felt even somewhat eager.
Comfortable, too comfortable…
At the same time.
After they finished cleaning up the battlefield.
The time had also reached exactly 5:00 PM.
A system prompt appeared.
[Attention all Survivors! The first day's 'Zhuo Mas Claw' challenge has ended. All 'Zhuo Mas Claw' and the Ice Nest Monsters led by it have disappeared. A new challenge is now starting: Zorma Behemoth!]
[Zorma Behemoth has appeared within the district server range. The challenge time is 6 hours, and the remaining number of Zorma Behemoths is: 5]
[Please note: Zorma Behemoth is a level 50 Commander-grade creature. Its attack power has been lowered, attack speed has been lowered, attack desire has been reduced, and its health is 500 million…]
…
Seeing the system prompt, the chat channel was filled with exclamations.
"Holy shit! Level 50 Commander, so outrageous?"
"My level is only 25, our attacks probably can't even break its defense, right?"
Just at this moment, one of the Survivors analyzed: "Not necessarily, maybe there is really hope to take down this monster."
"Didn't the system say that the monster's attack power, attack speed, and even attack desire have all been lowered?"
"In this way, this Zorma Behemoth is at best just a punching bag with thicker armor and more health."
"With so many of us, there is still hope to take it down."
After this person's analysis, everyone felt it made sense!
"Indeed, the system shouldn't generate an unbeatable monster for us."
"However, this 500 million health still sounds rather frightening; even Zhuo Mas Claw only had 20 million health."
"Brother upstairs, this is a World Boss. Only a few thousand people fought Zhuo Mas Claw; this time, tens of thousands are probably fighting it, 500 million health won't withstand the output of so many of us."
"…"
And while they were discussing, the leaders of those large groups had already taken action.
Including Cao Xing's side, they also opened the map on the system.
It marked the location where the Zorma Behemoth was located.
Five red dragon heads looked so dazzling!
Cao Xing pondered: "The distance between these five Zorma Behemoths is at least one to two thousand kilometers from each other. It seems the system also distributed them based on the original five major districts like Districts 15, 16, and 17."
"And the Zorma Behemoth closest to us is a full 60 kilometers away."
"It seems we need to speed up our travel!"
Words falling, Cao Xing led the crowd and rushed rapidly toward the location of the red dragon head.
Throughout the four major districts, the vast majority of Survivors had taken action at this moment.
For all Survivors, today is the liveliest day.
After all, activities like this collective fight against a World Boss are rare.
They called upon friends in the chat channel to seek teams.
And the Survivors who happened to be near the Zorma Behemoth had already arrived at the location of the red dragon head.
When they raised their heads to look and observe the figure of this behemoth, everyone couldn't help but let out exclamations!
"Holy shit! Is this the Zorma Behemoth? It's fucking huge!"
"Yeah, as expected of a World Boss, this appearance looks very deterrent!"
"So cool, brothers!"
Listening to these people's discussions, the Survivors became even more curious.
They quickened their pace and rushed toward the direction where the Zorma Behemoth was located.
…
…
Meanwhile, Cao Xing's side was also speeding along the way like lightning.
On the boundless snowfield, the momentum of the group running at full speed was quite astonishing.
Given their current marching speed, 60 kilometers would only take about twenty minutes.
Soon, Cao Xing approached the red dragon head on the map.
At a position of about five kilometers away, the crowd stopped.
In front of them was a wide plain.
There were no obstacles or buildings around, making it a place quite suitable for large-scale combat.
And nearby, there were already many Survivors who had gathered over like him.
Because Cao Xing's speed was very fast, the number of current Survivors was not very large, but there were still about three to four thousand people.
This time's five World Bosses were distributed to the original five major districts.
It could be said that each district had nearly 100,000 Survivors participating simultaneously; counting the number of their combat subjects, it easily exceeded ten million.
One could imagine that more and more Survivors would definitely gather over next.
At this time, the Survivors who arrived early were already shocked by the scene before them.
They raised their heads, looking dazedly at the sight ahead.
Right in the center of that huge plain area, the figure of a behemoth stood tall, making people terrified.
That was a behemoth whose shape resembled a tyrannosaurus, its whole body covered in ice-blue scales, as if made of chunks of millennium-old mysterious ice!
Its body was at least nearly a hundred meters tall, like a towering mountain peak, full of oppression.
Its head was huge and ferocious, and its sharp teeth were like rows of sharp swords, flashing with cold light!
On the back of this ice-blue tyrannosaurus grew a pair of huge wings, which were also constructed of ice crystals, like two ice crystal curtains.
At this moment, this Zorma Behemoth stood quietly there, its terrifying weight having already stomped two giant pits seven to eight meters deep into the ground!
Cao Xing exclaimed: "Good grief, truly deserving to be a behemoth, this size is so fucking massive!"
"Just standing there, this monster gives people a feeling of being invincible!"
The nearby "Bo Jie, Sun Chaser" already gripped the battle axe in his hand when he saw this monster, murderous intent boiling in his eyes.
"Zorma Behemoths! The main force that attacked our Norn Clan back then, every single Zorma Behemoth brought heavy casualties to our Norn legion!"
Cao Xing asked: "Is this monster any different from the ones you encountered before?"
Bjorn nodded, "Indeed different, the aura on it is obviously much weaker, not even one-tenth of a real Zorma Behemoth."
"A real Zorma Behemoth is a Dominator-grade creature; their huge paws can cause landslides and ground splits with a single stomp."
Cao Xing nodded.
Then he glanced at the attributes of this behemoth.
[Ice Nest Behemoth]
[Race: Ice Nest Monster]
[Level: Level 50 (Tier 5 Commander-grade)]
[Health Points: 499.9 million / 500 million]
[Attack Power: 5542 ~ 5632]
[Armor: 3125 ~ 3324]
[Skills: Enhanced Ice Scale Armor (Armor increased by 1500, all attacks received reduced by 30%)]
(Frigid Stomp: The Zorma Behemoth lifts its huge paws to stomp the ground, triggering a strong earthquake and a frigid shockwave. The shockwave spreads outward from the center of the Zorma Behemoth, dealing 178% massive damage and stun effect to enemies within a 1000-meter range, cooldown: 80 seconds)
(Snow Curtain Roar: The Zorma Behemoth raises its head and lets out a deafening roar, spewing frigid frost breath from its mouth, triggering a massive snow disaster, interfering with all enemies' vision, and causing a 30% deceleration effect, cooldown: 120 seconds)
(Ice Ridge Domain: Condenses a large amount of frost power, summoning thousands of ice ridges, dealing 164% piercing damage to enemies within a 1000-meter radius, and reducing their movement speed by 30%, cooldown: 120 seconds)
(Dragon Shield Breath: The Zorma Behemoth temporarily gains flight ability and acquires a shield. During this process, it will enter a ranged attack mode, continuously spewing frigid breath, dealing continuous 169% freezing damage to enemies for 30 seconds, cooldown: 100 seconds)]
(Note: After entering the Dragon Shield Breath state, the Zorma Behemoth will acquire a shield with a durability of 10 million. Shattering the shield within 15 seconds can interrupt its skill, making it enter a backlash state and fall from the air;)
(The backlash state lasts for 30 seconds, the Zorma Behemoth's armor is reduced by 50%, and it cannot launch attacks)
[Commander-grade Skill: Ice Star Fall (Every time the Ice Nest Behemoth's health decreases by 10%, its attack desire will increase, and it will trigger an Ice Star Fall;]
The Ice Nest Behemoth will fly high into the sky, then heavily smash down onto the ground with destructive momentum, triggering a huge shock, dealing 558% destructive damage to enemies within a 1000-meter radius!)]
(Note: This skill is affected by the Lord System, the damage numbers and range have been reduced, and before casting the skill, there will be a 15-second pre-cast delay.)
[Talent: Dragon's Majesty (Abnormal resistance increased by 90%)]
(Note: A behemoth transformed from a scale of the Ancient Dragon Zhuoma, although weakened by the Lord System, still possesses unparalleled defense and destructive power.)
…
Cao Xing narrowed his eyes.
"This monster is really outrageous."
"With over three thousand armor, according to the newly revised armor calculation method, even Sarah's attacks will have to be reduced by about 30%."
"Coupled with the 30% damage reduction from that passive skill, that means this Zorma Behemoth has at least 60% damage reduction!"
"Coupled with those formidable skills, this monster is simply a battlefield weapon of mass destruction. No wonder Bjorn said that the Zorma Behemoths caused heavy losses to their Norn Clan."
