?409 Tricky Defensive Formation
On the back of Undying Fire Phoenix.
Murong Xue took a simple rest and said, "Alright, put me down. I want to continue the battle."
Hearing this, Xu Han frowned slightly and shook his head. "Let's observe the situation first. There's something wrong with these monsters. Our previous battle plan might not work, and something might even happen."
As soon as Xu Han finished speaking, the green humanoid elite monster roared again.
Immediately, the elite monsters gathered together and formed a defensive formation.
Previously, Liu Yan and the others could disperse their attacks because the elite monsters were scattered in formation. In addition, Liu Yan and the other's attacks could attract the aggro of the monsters.
However, these elite monsters gathered together to defend themselves. They did not take the bait.
As a result, the battle plan that Liu Yan and the others had previously formulated was no longer feasible.
On the ground, Liu Yan and Allen Smith suddenly felt they had no solution for the new problem.
When these elite monsters were all gathered together, there was no chance for them to fight one-on-one. As long as they charged forward, they would face the group attack of the elite monsters. They could not withstand the elite monsters' attack.
Knowing that the previous battle plan was not feasible, Liu Yan decided to stop and let Undying Fire Phoenix come down. Liu Yan and Allen Smith returned to the back of the Undying Phoenix.
After they climbed onto Undying Fire Phoenix, they were about to fly high into the sky.
However, the group of elite monsters on the ground suddenly launched a long-range attack toward Undying Fire Phoenix.
These elite monsters had formed a defensive formation. Without any worries, they could naturally launch long-range attacks together to attack Undying Fire Phoenix.
Now that they were attacking again. These long-range attacks instantly formed a powerful firepower net.
The Undying Phoenix hurriedly dodged, but the firepower net was too big. It was too late to dodge it.
At the critical moment, Xu Han waved his S-grade weapon, Phantom Blue Staff, and an ice barrier appeared again. The ice barrier blocked the attack of the elite monsters. However, cracks appeared on the ice barrier. It could not completely block the second round of attack.
Liu Yan hurriedly had Undying Fire Phoenix fly further away from these elite monsters.
Liu Yan knew that Xu Han's ice barrier skill consumed a lot of energy. There was a limit to its use, so Xu Han could not use it continuously.
Not long after, Undying Fire Phoenix flew higher into the sky and further away from the elite monsters. It increased the distance between it and the elite monsters.
After a while, the elite monsters did not continue to attack Undying Fire Phoenix. They just continued to stay on the ground and defend.
At the same time, they continued to spawn elite monsters. The number and strength of this group of elite monsters were slowly recovering and increasing.
Liu Yan looked at the elite monsters on the ground and frowned.
Initially, he thought that the battle plan just now was perfect. They had already successfully killed many elite monsters. However, now, an intelligent elite monster that could command had suddenly spawned.
With this intelligent elite monster, these elite monsters suddenly had someone to command them. Things were different now.
The strength of these elite monsters was all unified under command.
Now, even if these elite monsters could not take the initiative to attack Liu Yan and the others in the sky, Liu Yan and the others could not attack them for the time being.
Moreover, these elite monsters were constantly spawning, and their combat power kept increasing.
If this continued, Liu Yan and the others might not be able to attack the elite monsters. In the end, they could only bring all members of the Land of Origin team to fight these elite monsters.
Liu Yan was confident he could lead his team to defeat the fourth wave of elite monsters. However, he would not be able to achieve his original plan. Liu Yan could not defeat the fourth wave of elite monsters and the fifth wave of bosses in advance. Moreover, he would lose the opportunity to attack the other territories.
They began to discuss their countermeasures based on the current situation.
"The previous battle plan won't work anymore. We have to think of another way. We will have to give up on this operation if we can't think of a new plan." Xu Han said first.
Liu Yan nodded slightly. He naturally understood this reasoning.
In the previous situation, the elite monsters were scattered. In addition, it was easier to attract the aggro of these monsters. The battle plan that Liu Yan and the others had formulated was impeccable.
The three people on the ground used their powerful agility and combat strength to pin down the elite monsters. They only needed to find a one-on-one opportunity to deal with them one by one.
Three people on the ground could ensure the safety of Undying Fire Phoenix and Xu Han in the air.
It also allowed Undying Fire Phoenix to attack safely, and Xu Han could continuously use crowd control skills.
They attacked the masters on the ground and from the sky simultaneously. This way, they could still suppress the elite monsters even if their numbers were far less than the elite monsters.
But now, everything changed after the intelligent-type monster spawned.
Now that these elite monsters were all gathered together to defend, it was obvious that their previous battle plan was no longer effective. They could not attack the elite monsters one-on-one.
If Liu Yan and the rest were to sit on Undying Fire Phoenix, they would be attacked by these elite monsters. Without Xu Han's ice barrier skill, the Undying Fire Phoenix would not be able to hold on.
Now that they were facing the elite monster defensive formation. It would be difficult to break through it. It would require a lot of effort.
At this moment, Murong Xue could not help but be distressed as she said, "These elite monsters are really too much. They huddle together to defend, but they are not attacking us. We already have a small number of people, and they are defending. How would we have the chance to attack?"
When Xu Han heard this, he helplessly said, "These elite monsters do not need to attack us. Their aggro is on the guardian beasts. Now that the time is not up yet, they cannot attack the guardian beasts."
Liu Yan thought for a while and did not think of any good ideas. After all, these elite monsters were all huddled together to defend. Any method would be useless. Only sheer strength would be useful.
Liu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up when he thought of this.
Previously, when they faced more than 50 elite monsters, Liu Yan and the others were not strong enough.
But now, after experiencing the previous battle, they first killed many flying-type elite monsters. During the fight just now, they killed many elite monsters.
Although they only killed them one by one, they accumulated quite a lot.
Even though some elite monsters had spawned, the total number of these elite monsters was only slightly over thirty.
Liu Yan and the others might be able to deal with an elite monster that was slightly over thirty.
There was no need to consider other methods. They could just attack!
Xu Han thought for a while and shook his head helplessly. "There's no other way. Do you guys have any ideas?"
Murong Xue also shook his head. Allen Smith did not say anything. Clearly, there was no other way.
However, Liu Yan said calmly, "Perhaps we don't need any complicated battle plans to deal with these elite monsters!"
