The many settings in “The Ancient God World” are quite interesting, and the designs of the monsters are a combination of many previous game settings.

For example, the one that this Shield Warrior is facing now — the Dragon Chariot.

A relatively gigantic monster that rushes forward but it’s not just a mere charge.

However, due to its tremendous strength, players, under normal circumstances, can’t withstand it, especially if they plan to confront the Dragon Chariot head-on.

The Dragon Chariot typically starts with the monster running. Given its own mass, the resulting inertia is huge, leading to substantial force.

Generally, it’s split into two types: the Straight-line Dragon Chariot, which moves at a speed no less than the charging speed of a warrior, and possesses great strength, often inflicting instant-kill damage on players.

The other type is the Turning Dragon Chariot. After launching the attack, generally, the monster can change direction based on the position and movement route of the target. Its speed is slightly slower compared to the Straight-line Dragon Chariot, but not by much.

This Shield Warrior wielded two shields, reducing the damage by at least thirty to forty percent. He had also activated a protuberant shield of phantom-like energy, a defense skill of his elite profession, hovering around him.

The crowd immediately recalled an idiom to describe what awaited him; trying to stop a vehicle with a mantis’s arm.

Boom…

The horn of the Earth Dragon collided with the warrior’s shield, sending the Shield Warrior flying backward like a ruptured bag.

His health bar was instantly emptied. Before he could even hit the ground, his soul had already been summoned back to the graveyard by the Soul Healer.

Everyone’s expressions changed. The strength of this Shield Warrior hadn’t varied, and he had at least three pieces of purple grade equipment. His health was already close to one thousand, and the damage reduction from his two shields combined with the reduction from his skill, but he was knocked flying and instantly killed, without being able to resist.

The audience gasped. Although they were only watching, they could feel the tremor of the earth and the cold, blood-thirsty glare in the Earth Dragon’s eyes.

“This is terrifying. As expected, no creature bearing the word ‘dragon’ is simple,” mused a player named Xiao Ze after seeing another player attempt an attack.

“I’d say, anything classified as a boss in this world isn’t easy to provoke,” commented KB with a bitter laugh, noting how difficult and demanding this game had proven to be.

Seeing another player fall, Xiao Ze remarked, “After experiencing a major monster raid, I thought we had acclimated to the rhythm of The Ancient God.

But it seems we still have a long way to go.”

“Actually, we’ve already made a lot of progress. At least we’re no longer completely lost,” KB said, staring at the rampaging Earth Dragon. “This boss’s normal attack is average — many professions can withstand it. But one skill allows it to burrow into the ground, another is a charging skill, and another is a rolling skill. These are really nasty. No matter how well you perform at the outset, one hit from any of these three skills generally results in instant death.”

The so-called ‘rolling’ is essentially the Earth Dragon abruptly falling in one direction. Given its massive size, crushing a player is quite easy.

“Actually, it’s all about timing. I feel like without a place to move to, it’s tough to dodge the charging and burrowing skills. As for the rolling skill, it doesn’t seem to have any indication for melee fighters,” said Xiao Ze with a frown. “It feels like fighting that giant bird again — it takes time to adapt, or find some other method.”

“The purpose of this trial is to weed out the weak. Some of the elite quests are unique and many players with average skills can only complete them with the help of teammates,” continued KB. “Ironically, the majority of professional players are too steady, thus losing the eligibility to participate in the elite quests.”

“It seems that teams will have to adjust their strategies after this round,” Xiao Ze agreed with KB’s analysis.

“Speaking of which, not everyone fails with this monster. Most are probably just observing. The Beast of the River seems to be easier, as there are already players who have gotten through and completed their trials with it,” said Xiao

Ze.

He smiled and said, “This is a matter of luck as well. The trail points are randomly assigned. If you run into the Earth Dragon, you can only consider yourself unlucky. Players don’t have a map, so they generally wouldn’t want to change locations.”

“Can’t be helped. Many players were instant-killed by higher-tier monsters. They’ve learned a bloody lesson. Those who can make it here are truly the elite of the elite. However, it seems it still isn’t enough. This Earth Dragon is too powerful. Out of twenty players, none have shown signs of the boss weakening or being on the verge of death,” says KB as they watch in despair as another player falls victim to the Dragon Chariot.

“Audiences are busting out in laughter. They’re eagerly waiting for Prairie Fire to take his turn,” Xiao Ze said, hearing the ongoing cheers from the crowd.

“Yeah, Prairie Fire’s popularity has skyrocketed,” KB said enviously, reflecting on his challenging professional career, filled with sights and sighs.

“That’s the thing, his skills are a work of art and captivating to watch,” said Xiao Ze. “Look, after two more players, it’ll be Prairie Fire’s turn.”

“That’s my son, I don’t have to worry now,” said Li Jia’s mother, brimming with joy.

Li Jia’s father glared at her and said, “What do you know? Now is when you should worry. He’s rising too fast, the higher you climb, the harder you fall. It might seem like he’s having a good run now, but just one lost face would invite criticism. ”

“You keep quiet, you’re too cautious. You’ve been in the same position for over a decade, but I’ve not seen you rise to the top,” retorted Li Jia’s mother.

“You! You don’t understand the minds of people. I know he’s suited to playing this game, and I won’t object if he intends to do so. But with his capabilities, he should play it on the safe side. The risks he takes are not proportional to what he gains,” Li Jia’s father explained helplessly.

“Forget it, our son has grown up and has his own plans. In the future, don’t be so critical of him. Like you said, he’s suited for this game, so let him go his own way. All we need is not to hold him back,” says Li Jia’s mother.

Finally hearing his father hum in agreement, Li Jia, who had been secretly living in suspense, broke into a brilliant smile.

“How does it feel? Seen anything worth noting? You’re up next.” Asked Jin Jin.

“I’ve got a glimpse,” replied Li Yao. With his skills from the previous world, even if he didn’t pay attention or forgot the boss’s skills, dealing with this small boss wouldn’t be a problem. In his previous life, he failed to attain Divine Enthronement, not because of a lack of skill but a lack of foundation from missing out on more than two years.

“Don’t push yourself, how about we go ahead together first?” suggested Thousand Illusion Ice Feather hesitantly. “After all, you have a wealth of experience in soloing bosses. Watching a few more rounds won’t hurt, and we’re depending on you to help devise our strategy.”

Upon hearing Thousand Illusion Ice Feather’s words, every player’s eyes lit up. This was Prairie Fire and that meant he had created many records. To have such a brilliant player around and not use him would be a waste.

“Prairie Fire, why don’t you watch from the side? Whenever you’re ready, you can join the fight. We have plenty of opportunities.”

“Right, right, Prairie Fire, why not watch for a moment.” The crowd quickly erupted in agreement.

However, Li Yao shook his head and said, “No need, I’ve understood what I needed to see. I’ll take part in the next round.”

Li Yao didn’t want to waste any more time just watching these people die one by one…. it was just too depressing…
