Chapter 48: Raid Start

As Xu Feng cast Blessing Valor toward the team, the intimidation received from the Inferno Tyrant diminished substantially.

"You've cast Blessing Valor on yourself since the start?" Autumn Breeze seemed to have been enlightened from her earlier confusion.

Xu Feng was happy to take the credit for such and nodded his head in agreement.

Thanks to her "deduction" once again, she allowed him to avoid answering that it was because he had been baptized which caused him to have high resistance to intimidation.

"Indeed, I thought your Cleric would know better to cast Blessing Valor from the start so I didn't bother to give the command. But alas, who would have thought?" He added, shaking his head, seemingly blaming himself for his lack of insight.

However, everyone knew he was indirectly calling their Cleric useless and inefficient for not knowing what to do.

Others were still fine with the subtle disappointment, but the two Clerics wanted nothing more than to bury themselves alive.

Just how embarrassing was it to be called for their slow reactions?

"Ahem, what do you suggest we do now, Lin Feng?" Gentle Wind faked a cough at this time and enquired, most likely to avoid any embarrassment from happening to her members.

To look into it further, she was trying to hint to Xu Feng to not go overboard with his words even if it was true.

Nodding his head, Xu Feng had no intention of blaming her members either. He was merely trying to warn them to have faster reactions next time.

After all, if he wasn't baptized, then he would have immediately cast Blessing Valor the moment they were about to reach the endpoint of the passage.

This was common sense and typically, the standard for players.

But maybe it was because they didn't expect how realistic the Divine World would be and failed to adapt to the mechanics temporarily.

Since Xu Feng already made a bad reputation for himself by mercilessly using Steelshot as a scapegoat, what else could he not do?

"Very well! Then Gun Knights, Knight Lancers, and Berserkers come to the front!" Xu Feng commanded.

He then turned to the Clerics and instructed them to cast their buff to the tanks only.

Their initial reactions were filled with surprise, given the norms were supposed to split the buff between the tanks and the damage dealer. Yet Xu Feng's instruction focused heavily on the tanks.

Nevertheless, they didn't dare to question it and quickly cast their buffs to the tanks. And since their levels were higher than Xu Feng's, their buffs were naturally better and had more varieties than him.

'Sigh, curse that damn system for imposing such a debuff on me. I didn't even get caught by the NPCs so why must it interfere?' Xu Feng was frustrated by the situation, but there was nothing he could do about it.

The system was an intangible being. Fighting against it was no different than asking a person to punch the air as if the air would receive any damage whatsoever.

Shaking his head, Xu Feng prayed for a massive level up from the abundant experience points of the Inferno Tyrant.

"Alright, tanks, activate your skills and hop into the arena stage." Xu Feng raised his hands, officially starting the raid.

"Let's go!!!!" The tanks roared in unison as they raised their weapons and activated their skills.

"RAWR!!!"

The Inferno Tyrant roared in fury upon spotting the intruders in its habitat.

At the same time, the arena stage was soon being filled with magma, astounding the others aside from Xu Feng.

'What a Burning Blaze skill cheat code. Why can't I do the same?' Xu Feng lamented silently.
