Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 862 - 245: The Choice of Faith, War Across Worlds
In the sky, a flying Super Beast blocked out the sun, its overlapping wings forming a dark cloud that completely obstructed the sunlight.
It was as if a massive shadow was sweeping over the land, the air currents generated by its wings like a passing hurricane.
The Divine King remained utterly composed, having experienced numerous battles both large and small.
He had witnessed the sweeping Horror Black Tide before, and the charge of the Super Beast Legion was powerful but lacked the visual impact of the Black Tide.
"Thank you, brothers, for trusting me to lead the command this time. We will once again fight side by side."
With these words, the legion channel went silent as the Divine King activated the Brain Overclocking Attribute.
An indescribable clarity spread from the temple to his entire head, as if the brain's processing power had suddenly been upgraded.
Thoughts flowed exceptionally smoothly with the attribute activated, like a blocked water pipe suddenly being cleared.
Previously vague concepts connected into clear logical chains, resolving themselves automatically.
Memories were like organized files, readily available at a moment's notice–the contents of warfare books from the library in Imperial Tomb Village a week ago, and snippets from other books... all within reach.
In the regional voice channel, the speaking rate of other players seemed to have slowed down.
He could predict the end of a player's sentence before they even finished speaking.
Eagle-Headed Demon, Activate!
In an instant, his vision advanced forward like a lens, bringing the scene into focus with all its details.
Perception pierced through everything unhindered; even the murky elemental particles floating in the air of the Spirit Breath World were visible.
Unlike what the naked eye sees, the world in the Eagle-Headed Demon mode seemed to be reconstructed.
If the world seen by the Eagle-Headed Demon was 100%, the world seen by the naked eye was not even 1%.
Perceptual vision wasn't a single focus of the naked eye but a multidimensional coverage, seeing everything in its range without moving his gaze.
Lord, Activate!
The Divine King's forehead lit up with a burning mark as Warlord Mode activated.
Blood-colored energy surrounded the magic system players ahead like an aura, causing aura marks to appear beneath their feet.
The Divine King slightly opened his mouth, and white air currents continuously flowed into it.
However, the intensity of Energy Absorption was influenced not only by Life Soul Level and Spiritual Strength but also by the environment.
The difference between the Spirit Breath World and Monster World was significant, and filtering air impurities to absorb energy became inefficient.
Scattered Arrow, Suction Feature, Activate!
The Spirit Beam automatically connected to two players standing behind.
Two players, acting as power banks, immediately took out Spiritual Recovery Potions, ready to drink and sustain the Divine King's command.
"21, 22, 23... group, stand by, while the rest of the Damage Absorption Team prepares."
Upon his words, players from the Damage Absorption Team at the forefront of the Player Corps released Battle Aura Souls, with red air flows swirling around them like a vortex.
At the center of the main battle line was the Damage Absorption Team of the Divine Hall Guild.
The 3,000 Damage Takers wielded arm guards, their upper bodies mostly bare; their bulging back muscles coiled like angry dragons, with neck veins projecting boiling battle aura.
Before the charge commenced, they crouched down, resembling a herd of fierce beasts about to break free from chains.
With the Divine King issuing the charge command—
Thousands of red battle auras erupted simultaneously, much like a volcanic lava stream.
Propelled by battle aura, they shot forward abruptly, red air flows spouting from their pores, trailing red tail flames behind.
The ground cracked beneath their feet, the solid rock layer shattering like thin ice with cobweb-like fissures as their steps landed.
The speed of the Damage Absorption Team's charge increased rapidly, with muscle fibers producing a bowstring-like hum under high load.
The Damage Absorption Team of the Divine Hall Guild influenced the emotions of nearby Damage-bearing Stream Players.
Many charging Damage-bearing Stream Players gazed at the Divine Hall Guild's Damage Absorption players with undisguised envy.
Because they were chasing that goal.
The top guild's Damage Absorption Team was of a completely different magnitude.
The Divine Hall Damage Absorption Team represented the pinnacle for forum Damage-bearing Stream Players, each forged in the fires of war in the Newbie Village furnace, experienced as Iron Walls.
As long as they're on the battlefield, they are the staunchest guardians for the players at the rear.
The Divine Hall Guild's war videos had been watched by virtually all players. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Precise hate guiding, extreme blood counterattacking, and perfectly timed Star Shifting... under the command of the Divine King, their every move was like finely-tuned gears fitting seamlessly into the team combat rhythm.
Every new player choosing the Damage-bearing Stream would first check strategies to learn how to play it.
Old players always recommended the Divine Hall Guild's war videos.
The techniques of ordinary player teams' Damage-bearing Stream Players mostly came from these top players.
These top Damage Absorption players had long engraved the muscle memory of damage absorption into their bones.
Gaps in Life Soul, equipment could be bridged through Hunting.
But the damage absorption awareness built on countless team wipes needed to be honed from the most brutal wars.
If the Competition Faction represented the pinnacle of personal combat skills in the Player Faction, then the Damage-bearing Stream Players emerging from the Newbie Village were undoubtedly the pinnacle of war technology.
As one forum Damage-bearing Stream Player once said: "Real steel is always forged in the hottest flames, and insignificant skirmishes are nothing. Go try your hand at the Newbie Village if you have guts."
