There were still some who tried to attack it, but they were all blocked by the iron-like defense of the Crystallized Elder.
Guan Yunchang tried to cut down some skeletons to reduce the monster's defense, but the speed of killing was far slower than the speed of summoning.
In the textbooks, the Crystallized Elder was a special case. The defense of this monster was frighteningly high, but it was only its defense that was scary. Its only skills were summoning skeleton soldiers and swinging its claws.
When encountering such a monster, there are only two possible solutions: Either fight it with sheer strength and defeat it, or simply run away obediently. After all, this guy's speed was not fast. It could even be said to be the speed of a turtle. As long as the class changers wanted to run, they could definitely run away.
However, Xu Fan had no intention of running away.
"Fatima, come here." Xu Fan walked through the crowd and called Fatima, who was fighting against the skeleton soldiers.
Of course, an individual's value could not compare to this monster, but what if two people's values were added together?
With 16 plus 15 points of strength, he could easily break through the 30 mark.
As for how to make up for the remaining points... Last week, in the Gold Mine dungeon, he had completed a limited mission, and the reward for the mission was a [Mysterious Skill].
[Excitement: After use, strengthen the next attack, increase the strength of the next attack by 20%]
This skill could allow his attack to easily break through 35 points after [Unity of Strength].
In addition to the Shield Soldier's counterattack skill [Precise Defense], after accurately defending against an enemy's attack, it could increase the next defensive counterattack damage by 30%.
With such a combination, breaking through the Crystalized Elder's defense was simply a piece of cake.
Everyone was surprised to see Xu Fan leading a shield-wielding girl to the monster that even a Level 35 Blade Master could not break through.
"Xu Fan! Don't go! You're just a..."
Xu Fan was a Lifestyle class changer. Tang Yu didn't say it out loud, but this matter was something that everyone was well aware of. No matter how many miracles he had created in the past, it was all because of his smart brain and the support of the few girls beside him. His profession meant that he could not fight normally.
Especially after seeing him take the shield from Fatima, everyone's eyes widened.
"Xu Fan, don't be rash. Why are you holding a shield and going up?"
"Retreat! Someone stop him!"
Liu Yanxiao and Guan Yunchang rushed up to stop Xu Fan, who was courting death. However, Xu Fan did not hesitate and strode to the side of the Crystalized Elder before them.
Ming Shu helped him clear out the skeleton soldiers nearby, and Chi Luo followed his instructions.
The Crystal Elder's attack mode was passive. In other words, as long as you didn't hit it, it would never attack you. Therefore, he needed someone to trigger the Crystal Elder's counterattack. And Chi Luo, who had quite a bit of strength, was obviously able to take on this heavy responsibility.
The silver-haired, red-eyed girl grinned, raised the staff in her hand, and ruthlessly smashed it at the Crystalized Elder's head.
18 points of Strength was indeed powerful. The monster's crystallized body with extremely high defense was even forced back a distance. It did not launch a counterattack for a long time.
Seeing Xu Fan's suicidal behavior, the surrounding people were also stunned. When they saw Chi Luo defeat the Crystal Elder with a single strike, they were so scared that they sucked in a breath of cold air.
To actually be able to repel this thing, just how much strength did that girl have? Wasn't she a mage?
However, despite being forced back so far, the Crystalized Elder still did not receive any damage. After recovering from his stun, he pounced at Chi Luo, who had just attacked, with lightning speed.
Due to the crystallization of its body, its entire body was as hard as a rock, not to mention the basic movement of its joints. It was like a brick flying across the sky, looking extremely strange. The aura that erupted was even more terrifying. That speed and strength seemed unstoppable. Even Guan Yunchang, who had always been extraordinarily brave, did not dare to take a step to block the terrifying attack.
Xu Fan suddenly raised his giant shield and displayed a precise defense. The pitch-black shield immediately lit up with a brilliant white light. Then, it blocked the terrifying attack head-on with its double defense value.
"Ding!"
Under everyone's dumbfounded gazes, Xu Fan, who was a blacksmith, held an exaggerated shield and easily resolved the Crystalized Elder's terrifying attack.
Then, he stabilized his horse stance and launched a counterattack. After stacking, there was a total of more than 40 terrifying numbers! He tied it to one point and smashed it with all his strength.
"Dang-"
A crisp sound of metal colliding was heard.
Under everyone's gaze, the unshakable Crystalized Elder was like a broken puppet doll that had been thrown out. It swayed and crashed to the ground, leaving only half of its body twitching in the ground.
Xu Fan carried the big shield and walked forward. He raised it up high and started smashing it like a blacksmith.
"F * ck. This is too cruel."
"This is a blacksmith. He treats monsters like iron!"
"What kind of monsters are in Xu Fan's team? What kind of monster is he?"
"Dang-"
"Dang-"
"Dang-"
"Ding!"
As they fought, the remaining half of that thing's body was still able to counterattack, but it was still easily resolved by Xu Fan. He used the enhanced skill to smash the head of that thing.
"Boom!"
The Crystalized Elder's head was smashed into pieces, and the smoke and dust that rose up only slowly dissipated after a long time.
"I've leveled up by two levels." Xu Fan returned the shield to Fatima. He was slightly stunned when he saw the 20,000 experience points that he had received.
As expected of a large-scale dungeon, even the elite monsters had so much experience.
It even dropped a purple-grade crystal core.
A purple-grade crystal core and a purple-grade storage ring, wouldn't a purple-grade artifact spirit appear?
After seeing Xu Fan kill a monster that they couldn't even break through, the people from Yunzhou felt like they had been baptized.
What a terrifying power!
"Everyone, the skeleton soldiers have not been cleared yet. Don't relax!" Seeing that Xu Fan was fine, Guan Yunchang picked up his glaive and charged back into the formation. He swept across the enemies around him and then raised his fist high.
"Follow me!"
The group of people who were encouraged immediately gathered their spirits and charged toward the surrounding skeletons that no longer had a summoner.
On the other side, Xu Fan also found a gap and guided the Weapon Spirits to start clearing the monsters with extremely high efficiency.
Liu Yanxiao and the others also began to organize a counterattack with their best fighting methods. Although they also displayed extraordinary strength, they were clearly much slower than Xu Fan.
