Don't call me evil god

Although the Believers of Knowledge had already expected that this battle would be difficult before the fight began.

But what Pat didn't expect was that the actual situation was more tragic than he imagined.

The opponent is a real level 4 stalker.

Not to mention combat experience.

Most of the believers who were born as civilians had never seen what a level 4 powerhouse looked like before.

Starting from level 3, both professionals and monsters will be improved in all aspects, and even undergo qualitative changes.

For example, the attack pollution effect of level 3 monsters is significantly increased.

After mages cross the level 3 threshold, the number of spell slots will increase a lot.

Level 3 stalkers are more stealthy in their [Stealth] effect, making it easier to find the enemy's weaknesses when attacking and causing serious damage.

As for level 4.

After Rogues advance to level 4, the biggest improvement is their damage avoidance ability.

The blessing of the God of Shadow protects the blade in the shadow. When attacked, the shadow energy surrounding the body may flow on its own, causing various attacks to "refract".

The effect reflected in the battle is:

There were obviously a large number of attacks bombarded in the direction of the old butler of the castle, Winnekes, but most of them would be inexplicably deflected just before they hit.

It was as if an arrow had hit the smooth surface of the hand, and the impact force was completely removed. Not only could it not be deflected, but it could even tilt to the side and hit the teammate who was also hit by the focused fire.

Only a few attacks, with enough luck, can successfully hit Winnex and cause effective damage.

After several rounds of fighting.

On the side of the Believers Seeking Knowledge, 6 unlucky people have died due to the focused fire from their teammates.

Winnex's life has not yet dropped below 90%.

Moreover, as their numbers continue to decrease, their attack efficiency will become increasingly low.

In a small venue like the castle, it is obviously the home ground of the stalker.

He retreats with one strike, waiting for an opportunity to move.

Mage and ranger, two professions that are good at long-range combat, suffered a big loss, which is a typical disadvantageous scenario.

Peter first thought of the solution:

"Hit rate!"

"It's not an option to continue fighting like this. Our attacks can't hit him at all!"

"Whoever learns the bonus magic or magic that specializes in hit effects, and blessed status!"

Only a sprinkling of five people responded.

3 mages, 2 rangers.

The mage’s level 2 magic [Arcane Precision];

The Ranger’s level 1 wilderness magic [Precision Shooting];

Both skills have the effect of "specialized hit rate" within a few hours after being blessed.

Notice.

It's a special hit, not an increase in hit.

The effect of these skills is to ignore the enemy's damage avoidance ability to a certain extent.

For example, the flow and reflection of shadow energy like Winnex.

Although the rank is not high, this kind of magic and divine arts is currently quite unpopular among the members of the Church of Knowledge.

Not many people spend points, time and energy on this skill.

Because it was never used before.

Monsters of level 3 or lower have never experienced this "missing hit" phenomenon. They do not have the ability to avoid damage.

This was everyone's first head-on confrontation with a level 4 enemy, and they suffered a heavy loss as soon as they got started!

…

The problem of hit rate has been solved. Although the battle situation is still tragic, it can at least cause more stable damage to Winnex.

For those who were put into the [Arcane Precision] or [Precision Shooting] state, their ability to hit once in 20 attacks instantly increased to 6, and they could hit once in 7 attacks.

The improvement is obvious.

Although the number of believers in seeking knowledge continued to decrease under Winnex's stealth strangulation, the other party also paid a considerable price.

Life status is getting lower and lower.

From more than 90% of life, it has gradually dropped to just over 50%.

In [The Secret of Everything], the moment Winnex's health is reduced to 50%.

The figure of the old butler in a well-tailored black tuxedo suddenly appeared from the darkness of the castle hall.

Slowly bend down and bow slightly politely and gracefully.

Immediately afterwards.

Rich shadow energy exploded with him as the center.

"call--"

The first person to notice that something was wrong was Brandon, who was highly focused.

In the previous tactic of beating up his teammates, Brandon was lucky enough not to be the unlucky guy who was targeted, but he didn't get many attack opportunities either.

No other reason.

Short hands!

As long as the mages react quickly enough, after chanting the magic spell, they can fly out and hit wherever they point.

Apart from throwing weapons and the like, warriors have almost no means of long-range attacks.

The shadow energy protecting him near Winnex can be "refracted", or to be precise, locked onto him.

It is impossible to lock the enemy accurately, and the [Charge] combat skill cannot be released at all. Even if it is forcibly released, it will not have the effect of "immobilizing" the enemy.

Round after round of concentrated fire came down, and Brandon was anxious.

His anger was almost boiling over, but he couldn't hit him!

If there was something like a contribution ranking or damage output ranking in this battle, Brandon would be right at the bottom right now.

Causes zero damage!

The only thing he could do was to observe his surroundings carefully with his eyes wide open, trying to launch an attack immediately the moment Winnekes appeared.

So Brandon was the first to notice the anomaly.

"Shadows! Your shadows!"

He raised his hand and pointed at his companions, whose shadows were elongated under the dim wall lamp:

"They're moving, something's coming out of the shadows!"

Brandon’s reminder was timely.

Everyone was on alert in time.

but--

The outbreak of a fourth-level stalker cannot be avoided by vigilance alone.

A pure black figure quietly emerged from every shadow.

Judging from the appearance, it looks like a shadow version of Butler Winnex!

The black figure quickly spun on the spot.

Countless "Sleeve Arrows" condensed into shadows and shot out in all directions!

"Danger!!!"

"Be careful! Get out of the way!!"

"Protect yourself! Don't resist! It's extremely powerful!!!"

With the level 2 magic [Prismatic Shield], Peter took a few sleeve arrows condensed from shadow energy, and his expression suddenly changed.

The shield, which could withstand more than a dozen attacks from level 2 monsters, was beaten to the point of collapse and was about to completely lose its effectiveness and break into pieces.

But the shadow sleeve arrows that flew out like a storm were not just a few shots, but a dozen or so.

Dozens and hundreds of attacks attacked the believers seeking knowledge indiscriminately.

Even worse.

A black shadow emerged from everyone's shadow, which meant that there were nearly a hundred black shadows spreading death in the hall.

There were even believers who were relatively close to each other and barely blocked attacks from their own shadows, only to be tricked by the shadows of their companions!

With one burst of Wennekes, a large number of the knowledge-seeking believers in the castle hall were knocked down like wheat!

Heavy losses!
