The Miracle Lord, the God Of War

This strategy of dealing with them was the simplest in the game.

After taking care of all the dog-headed people in the camp, the team would then be divided into two groups, and each group would launch an attack on BOSS number 1 and BOSS number 2 at the same time. Although the game did not require the two dog-headed magicians to die at the same time, the sound that would break out after the battle started would be loud enough to attract all the other living creatures inside the gathering place of the dog-headed people.

If the attacks were to be focused on one of the dog-headed magicians, then the result would be having to face the attacks of all three BOSSES at once. As a dungeon that had a limit of 10 people, it was easy to imagine the result of facing the attacks from all three magician BOSSES.

When using the method of splitting up the team and attacking the number 1 and number 2 BOSS at the same time, even though one team would have to face the attack of the third BOSS, it would still be much better than having to face simultaneous attacks from all three BOSSES.

Originally, Jim had suggested that Sean should have two more people on his side to support him. However, this proposal was immediately rejected by Sean.

After all, while Sean was extremely familiar with the three BOSSES of this dungeon and all of their attacks, Jim, Anyers, and the others were not familiar with them at all. Even if Sean had told them the strategies they could use last minute, he did not expect Jim to remember all the details. If the magician were to come find Sean for trouble, Sean was confident that he could stall the opponent. At the very least, Cecilia’s will, which had more than 35 points, was enough to be completely immune to the magician’s mind control.

As for Sean, he had gotten a high-level Metal Strengthening Scroll from the Black Cat Business Guild that he could use.

Inside the tent, there were weak sounds of dogs howling. It seemed like those inside were engaged in a low-voiced argument.

Sean knew that there would still be two bodyguards next to the dog-headed magicians. Although they were at rank three, apart from a slightly higher endurance, they still maintained the standard of the dog-headed people in all other aspects. However, in the real world, the only things the attribute of endurance could help with were things like a strong ability to resist attacks, having a relatively firm body, being not easily poisoned, and having high perseverance. This was unlike in the game, where it would also affect the health value.

Therefore, when at the crucial part of the strategy, the dog-headed people all had to die.

Sean looked at Cecilia, who nodded slightly and chanted the last magic syllable as the magic fluctuations instantly became stronger.

Inside the tent, the sound of dogs howling suddenly stopped. Immediately after, a very shrill sound could be heard.

It was obvious that this dog-headed magician was in a state of panic.

In the next second, Sean pulled out his long sword and instantly cut off the tent flaps. Cecilia hummed softly as the condensed Secondary Level Fireball Technique suddenly burst into the tent.

The sound of explosions, scorching flames, and firelight suddenly rose into the sky.

The Secondary Level Fireball Technique was a simplified version of the Fireball Technique. It was also the first magic attack that an apprentice magician could learn. Generally speaking, the Secondary Level Fireball Technique was only about the size of two fists combined. The impact range after the explosion was around a one-meter radius. This was about as powerful as some of the high explosives on earth, such as grenades. However, here on Miracle Continent, it was impossible for the Secondary Level Fireball Technique to kill the enemy in one go.

Unless the enemy was a civilian with no class.

On the other hand, Cecilia’s Fireball Technique was equivalent to the size of one and a half basketballs. This was a size bigger than the standard Fireball Technique, thus its power was naturally even more terrifying.

Of course, this was not because Cecilia was already an official magician. Even though she was only half a step away from the brink of becoming an official magician, what really made her Secondary Level Fireball Technique have such a strange power was the Flame of Crimson she always carried around with her.

After going through Cecilia’s mental stimulation and resonance, the Flame of Crimson not only carried Cecilia’s mental imprint, it had also unlocked the seal on the gem. Therefore, any fire-based magic Cecilia did would have increased power and effect. Also, with the increase of Cecilia’s magic power and mental strength, or in other words, the level of her profession, the Flame of Crimson could provide more support. At most, it could provide an increase of five times more than normal.

This was the real reason why the Flame of Crimson was so terrifying!

Cecilia had only sent one Fireball Technique into the tent, yet the entire tent had been engulfed by the scorching flames almost instantly. As for Sean and Cecilia, who had created this fire, they were well aware of what the power of this magic was like. Therefore, they were not stupid enough to stay where they were after casting the Fireball Technique. They had already run to a safe area to hide.

However, after running back out, Cecilia did not stop using her magic. Like what Sean had planned, she condensed two more fireballs and sent them to a tent that was as far as she could cast.

All of a sudden, two more tents started to burn. From inside these tents, frightened cries of the dog-headed people sounded.

With the sounds of explosions and the blazing flames, any of the dog-headed people who were still alive would now know that something had happened.

But at this moment, not many dog-headed people appeared. As soon as the three to four dog-headed people who were there ran out, they were easily taken care of by Sean’s sword. The situation before Sean was exactly what he had expected. Even though there were more than 50 dog-headed people in this camp, the number was not over 50 by much. Otherwise, they would have seen the dog-headed people patrolling the camp.

For the 50 to 60 dog-headed people who were scattered across a camp that could hold thousands of people, it would take a long time for them to gather together. By the time they arrived at the scene of the incident, the battle there would probably be almost over. This was the disadvantage of the dog-headed people having no commander inside the camp.

However, Sean was delighted about this.

Inside the tent where the dog-headed magician was, the burning flames suddenly shrank. Immediately after, there was an explosion. The flames scattered everywhere like broken glass. However, when the flames fell onto the ground, they did not extinguish. Instead, the flames continued to burn.

But for now, Sean and Cecilia were not paying any attention to these flames.

A dog-headed man wearing a robe made of ragged orange cloth suddenly stood up. Its body was bent, which meant it was a little old. Its eyes were not as clear as a normal dog-headed man. Instead, they were a bit bleary. It held onto a strangely shaped thick wooden stick with its left hand. This stick was the dog-headed magician’s magic wand, made from a simple technique of mixing wood and gems with magic fluctuations together. The quality of this wand was not even ordinary. It could only be considered poor quality.

This was the magician unique to the dog-headed clan, a rank three [Dog-headed Magician] profession.

Next to this dog-headed magician stood two younger-looking dog-headed men. They were wearing light leather armor and holding a battle halberd in their hands. Their eyes were filled with anger and hatred. Even though they were [Dog-headed Guards] at rank three, just like the dog-headed magician, the aura emitted from their bodies was much more inferior compared to the dog-headed magician, who seemed to be only half a step away from his death.

Currently, the three dog-headed men looked tattered. There were traces of large black patches on their bodies, and even a strange burning smell was being emitted. One of the dog-headed guards had lost half of its tail. There was even a flame still burning. Although it slapped as hard as it could, for some reason, the flame wouldn’t extinguish. However, it did not set its entire body on fire either.

This strange appearance reminded Sean of a pet in an animated movie that had been very popular on Earth many years ago.

But that pet was a lot prettier than the dog-headed people.

That dog-headed magician made a series of barking sounds. The frequency, speed, and fluctuation of the sound were completely different from the sounds made by humans. The only thing that could be heard from this sound was the flustered and exasperated state of the dog-headed magician.

After the barking from this dog-headed magician, the two dog-headed guards rushed towards Sean and Cecilia.

The dog-headed people were not as skilled in fighting as humans, but their race had an advantage in speed and magic. Therefore, all of their professions were developed from these two aspects. Even the two dog-headed guards in front of Sean and Cecilia, although they were responsible for protecting the dog-headed magician, carried out attacks that were not based on defense skills, such as endurance, but more on enhancing their speed. They would pin down and attack the enemy, providing a safe casting distance for the dog-headed magician.

This was a tactical change brought about by the issues of their race.

For now, the two dog-headed guards were planning to take advantage of their speed–one would pin down Sean and the other would attack Cecilia. That way, the dog-headed magician could successfully cast spells to get rid of Sean and Cecilia.

There was nothing wrong with the tactic itself, but it was a pity that they had chosen the wrong opponents from the start.

Sean rushed forwards with his sprint and arrived in between the two dog-headed guards. The long sword in his hand went into massive assault mode. This was different from the careful calculations he had made when he fought with Hank. It was also different from the violent methods he had used earlier in the tent. This technique was the third offensive sword skill embodied by the Mysterious Sword Skill. Even though a lot of flaws were revealed, once it was fully wielded, it would completely engulf the two dog-headed guards. This would force them to act at the same time, regardless of whether they were retreating or advancing. It would be impossible for them to be separated.

As soon as the distance between them was too far apart, Sean’s sword skill suddenly changed, as it became more violent. How could the dog-headed bodyguards, who were famous for their speed advantage, fight Sean, who had this kind of technique? All the action was now controlled by Sean. Whether they advanced or retreated depended on what Sean wanted. Therefore, even if one of the dog-headed guards was able to break away from Sean’s sword skills, it would not be able to harass Cecilia.

While the two dog-headed guards were attacking Sean and Cecilia in vain, a strong explosion sounded. It was coming from the northeast corner of the camp.

Sean knew that Anyers and Jim had succeeded in their attack!

What happened next would depend on what kind of choice the magician from the Medusa Business Guild was going to make.
