Chapter 495 495. Beast Tide 20
Duoya only rested for ten minutes... It didn't really count as a rest. After all, in order to stabilize her output to No. 1, she had been attacking the dark bear non-stop for these ten minutes.

After all, she cannot output when she is sneaking beasts below, so during this period of time, her total damage to the dark bear will be stable and will not increase. If someone is about the same strength as her, or only a little lower than her, then It is very possible to overtake during this period.

The consequence of a temporary overshoot in damage is that the beast suddenly changes its attack target. Not only is the person with the highest output at that time in danger, but facing a completely out-of-control beast, Duya, who is alone among the beasts, is even more dangerous.

However, this is basically impossible to happen. One is that the gap between Duoya's output and No. 2 is too big. The damage of No. 2's output is only [-]% of Duoya's.

The gap of nearly half is not something that can be overtaken by a beast that just sneaks around for a few minutes.
Moreover, Su You is also monitoring the output list at all times. Once she finds that No. 2's output reaches 85% of Duoya's, she will immediately stop.

Soon, the beasts summoned for the second time also came outside the territory. This time, the number of beasts was more visible to the naked eye than before. Su You counted the number and found that there were exactly 150 of them.

Because I already had the experience from the last time, the summons was solved smoothly this time.

Even though the number has increased, it is not so large that it is uncontrollable. After all, the previous largest beast tide was when more than 300 beasts appeared in a swarm at the same time. As a result, they were able to resolve it perfectly.

However, this gradually increasing number still made Su You feel something was wrong.

"If each summon is fifty more than the previous one, then the next batch will be two hundred. When the health reaches 10%, it will be... five hundred!"

Five hundred beasts were dispatched at the same time, which was definitely a big scene.

In addition, this is still the last batch of beasts. After so many beasts have been dealt with before, the supplies in the territory will definitely consume a lot of money... But that's okay, Su You is most worried about everyone's physical strength.

Because if they really follow this rule, they will have to kill at least [-] beasts!
If you include the beasts that are randomly refreshed by the tide, there are more than 3000 of them!

Moreover, this summoning does not necessarily follow the arithmetic sequence. What if the next batch is not two hundred, but three hundred?

Obviously, although all their battles seem to be going well so far, they absolutely cannot continue like this.

Su You once again used detection on the Dark Bear. Compared with before, the results of the detection showed no other changes except that the blood volume dropped a bit and the pollution level increased a bit.

At present, the pollution of the Dark Bear has reached '43/100', the status bar still shows 'mild pollution', and the last skill that is not displayed is still unknown.

After staring at the Dark Bear's information for a while, Su You discovered a problem that had never been explored, and that was - this Dark Bear had not released any 'Claws of Pollution' from the beginning to the present.

Some people may think that it is troublesome to deal with a boss skill too much. If the skill can not be triggered, then this is definitely a good thing, but this kind of thinking is only correct in most cases.

It is true that some boss skills can be circumvented through mechanisms, making the boss unable to release skills and reducing the difficulty of killing.

However, there are also some boss skills that are linked to the boss itself. Once a certain skill cannot be triggered, it will become more difficult to kill, or even impossible to kill.

The most typical example is the natural disaster leader who was killed not long ago.At the beginning, the triggering method of releasing the colored slime skill was never explored, but the colored slime is the key to solving the problem.

The biggest difference between these two types of skills is that the former increases difficulty, so this skill will exist from the beginning, and players need to find ways to avoid the appearance of this skill.

The latter generally reduces the difficulty, so it is generally not triggered actively. Unless the skill mechanism is triggered by accident, players need to explore how to trigger this skill by themselves.

Dark Bear's situation at this time perfectly fits the second type.

Su You read the description of the skill "Claws of Pollution" several times, and then caught two key points that may be the key to solving the problem, as well as a word that runs through the entire message of the Dark Bear.

How to release the claws of pollution - 'concentrate your own pollution on the bear's paw'.

The release result of the Tainted Claw - 'Adds the Tainted state to the attacked object'.

The boss of Dark Bear emphasizes one word from beginning to end - 'pollution'.

……

After having a rough idea in her mind, Su You was ready to start experimenting with her idea, but while she was thinking, Duoya had returned to the territory, and all the wild beasts that were led by her in circles had been wiped out.

Su You asked Duoya to be called over, and she refreshed the status of the Dark Bear again, and found that its pollution level had changed to '48/100', and the status bar still showed 'mild pollution'.

"Lord, have you made any new discoveries?" Duo Ya is very smart. She knows that Su You will not easily find her. Unless she makes an unusual discovery, she will not waste her rest time.

"Well, I have a guess, and you should have noticed that the number of beasts summoned these two times is getting larger and larger. It's not good to continue like this... Also, as time goes by, the pollution of the dark bear will become more and more... It's serious, and the strength will become stronger and stronger." Su You briefly explained the situation, and then began to explain to Duoya the reason why he came to her.

"In the next wave of summons, I need you to take those beasts to the Dark Bear. I need to do an experiment, but it is very dangerous. If you are not sure, I can use another method." But the other method is definitely not as good as this one. It’s easy to come by, and it’s not very error-tolerant, making it easy to make mistakes.

After all, this may be a linkage mechanism. Su You suspected that the reason why the beast summoned by the Dark Bear locked onto a hatred target was to facilitate their ability to crack this skill.

But the person responsible for drawing hatred is undoubtedly the most dangerous. After all, she needs to run around with so many beasts. It would be okay if there is no interference from the Dark Bear, but now she has to take the initiative to bring the beasts to the Dark Bear... The level of danger and difficulty skyrocketed.

Hearing Su You's words, Duoya wanted to agree directly without any hesitation, but before she could speak, Su You interrupted.

"There are many ways to solve this problem. You don't need to be brave. I don't want any unnecessary casualties."
