Guys, this isn’t reasonable!
Based on the knowledge points provided by Big Eyes,
Qin Feng knew that the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark burns people by accumulating the 'instant death gauge'.
So, Qin Feng himself wasn't afraid of the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark.
However…
If too many people bear the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark, the BOSS will become significantly more powerful and gain numerous buffs when it resurrects by burning them to Death!
Therefore, this was a problem Qin Feng had to resolve in advance.
Killing the BOSS might only take one set of attacks.
But if the BOSS resurrects and grows stronger by burning others… that might cause some trouble for Qin Feng.
Of course,
no matter how much stronger the BOSS became, it would only be a minor nuisance to Qin Feng.
The Crimson Tengu Magic Bird, with its core abilities centered around the three Upper Affixes of 'Instant Death', 'Chaos', and 'Corruption', posed no threat at all to Qin Feng, who possessed the 'old days catastrophe snake tooth'.
However, if the 'Crimson Tengu Magic Mark' is activated upon the BOSS's resurrection, the current players in France will definitely be unable to withstand it.
They would all suffer permanent and total Death!
While Qin Feng was lost in thought,
the middle-aged man with a receding hairline, 'Gabriel', spoke respectfully, "Mr. Shadow, we know of another mechanic regarding that Legendary BOSS, the Crimson Tengu Magic Bird. The Crimson Black Fire surrounding it can be shared among players."
"If one goes alone, they will simultaneously receive 600 points of Chaos and Corruption affixes per second."
"But if sixty people go together, the stacks for Chaos and Corruption will only increase by 10 points per second…"
"So, please allow us to dispatch some elites to accompany and assist you in battle!"
"They won't interfere with your fighting; they'll just help distribute the Upper Affixes you take. If needed, they can also cast buff skills on you."
"Sabastian, Sylvie, Cindy, come here."
At the middle-aged man's summons,
three beautiful young women in priest robes stepped out from the crowd and approached Qin Feng.
They were tall, elegant, and lively.
One had short hair, another long hair, and the third had curly brown hair. As the three girls stood before Qin Feng, their eyes were filled with curiosity, admiration, and anticipation.
Clearly, they were all eager to fight alongside Qin Feng!
And they weren't weak either.
They were all Level 18 Hidden Class priests, experts nurtured with France's official resources. Their combat power was quite high, and they even possessed equipment with Superior Resistance.
At this stage, they were indeed top-tier.
However…
they were clearly not qualified to participate in a battle against a Legendary BOSS!
If nothing else,
once they got close, the BOSS would inflict the 'Crimson Tengu Magic Mark' on them.
When the BOSS died, they wouldn't be able to withstand the Instant Death energy released by the mark's eruption, leading to their permanent Death!
At that moment,
the long-legged leader among the girls, Sabastian, said expectantly, "Mr. Shadow, I look forward to fighting by your side. My team and I are ready to move out at a moment's notice!"
Perhaps fearing Qin Feng wouldn't understand her, she spoke in English instead of French.
Qin Feng glanced at the beautiful girl speaking to him.
She was 1.75 meters tall with very attractive long legs, but on her slightly exposed shoulder, there was a pattern of a flaming black bird.
It was indeed the 'Crimson Tengu Magic Mark'!
"No need."
Qin Feng waved his hand dismissively. "Just tell me the location of the Crimson Tengu Magic Bird; I'll go kill it shortly. Also, how many of you have the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark? A friendly reminder: anyone with the mark should die once before I kill the BOSS. That will make the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark disappear."
"Otherwise, when the BOSS resurrects, everyone with the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark will die permanently."
To ensure they listened,
Qin Feng directly revealed the BOSS's mechanics.
As soon as he said this, the expressions of everyone around shifted.
Especially Sabastian, the long-legged blonde beauty with the flaming bird on her shoulder. She widened her eyes and looked at Qin Feng. "Mr. Shadow, I was nearby when the BOSS appeared. I ran fast enough to survive, but I ended up with this Crimson Tengu Magic Mark…"
"Are you saying that the Legendary Crimson Tengu Magic Bird will resurrect after it dies? And that we have to die once beforehand to remove this mark?"
Hearing her, several other players nearby who also had the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark grew nervous.
"Yes. Just have a friend kill you once."
Qin Feng added, "By the way, make sure you have enough non-tradable lifespan before you die. If you die while carrying the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark, all your tradable lifespan will be absorbed by the BOSS."
This revelation shocked everyone once more.
Someone immediately asked, "Then… can't we just trade our lifespan to someone else first?"
The long-legged Sabastian shook her head with a bitter smile. "You can't trade with others while you have the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark… So, that lifespan is just lost to the BOSS?"
A wave of gloom washed over many people in the crowd upon hearing this.
"Need my help? It'll be painless."
Qin Feng looked at the girl and offered a sudden, joking smile.
"Um… alright. I'll trouble you then, Mr. Shadow."
Sabastian nodded, looking a bit aggrieved, but she gritted her teeth and agreed.
Since she had to die anyway, dying at Shadow's hands wasn't such a bad way to go…
*Swish.*
Qin Feng raised his hand and delivered a single slash, kindly sending her back to the respawn point.
"Anyone else need my help?"
Qin Feng scanned the area. There were several others with the 'Crimson Tengu Magic Mark'; they must have been caught in the vicinity when the BOSS arrived.
Soon, a beautiful woman with short hair ran forward, hoping to be killed by Qin Feng.
The others didn't step out.
Qin Feng didn't press them.
After asking the middle-aged Gabriel for the BOSS's location, he beat his wings and took off toward his destination!
He left only one sentence behind as he departed.
He would give them half an hour to spread the word about the 'Crimson Tengu Magic Mark' so that every player carrying it could 'seek Death' once!
…
Right after Qin Feng left,
the middle-aged Gabriel immediately disseminated the news through official channels.
He also ordered all official personnel with the 'Crimson Tengu Magic Mark' to find a way to die once and remove the mark.
"Ah, what should I do? I don't have any non-tradable lifespan left…"
"Me neither. Is what Shadow said really true? I don't feel like there's anything wrong with this Crimson Tengu Magic Mark."
"Yeah, I don't feel anything unusual at all."
"I think we should trust Shadow; he probably wouldn't talk nonsense."
"Hey guys, this doesn't make sense. If just getting near the BOSS gives you the Crimson Tengu Magic Mark, and according to Shadow, the BOSS's Death triggers the marks to resurrect it… wouldn't that make the BOSS invincible?"
"Exactly. I don't believe there's such a thing as an invincible BOSS in this world!"
