Chapter 46 (1/2)

Four players of this party of the Owl Wolf Guild had died. The only one left was the Thief player who still had an Elite monster chasing after him.

After Fatty took a look at the scene, he targeted the Elite that the Death Knight had been attacking.

It was hard to encounter a Boss, and such opportunities were rare. Although Fatty also wanted to kill the Boss, after some calculations, he realized that was too dangerous. Since he was alone, it was really difficult for him to kill one big Boss and two small Bosses.

However, the Elite that the party of players had first concentrated on had low health, so he might be able to kill this one.

At this thought, Fatty did not hesitate anymore. Once the monsters were out of the combat state or went back, the Boss or the Elites would regenerate their health ten times. After some time, that Elite monster would very soon have full HP.

Upon rushing out, Fatty took a few steps away from the Elite monster and raised his hand to give the Elite a Poison Sting before he released a Miasma attack. He successfully attracted the Elite’s attention.

This Elite monster only had one-third of its health left. Since Fatty had taken over in time, it did not regenerate much.

However, when the Elite monster chased him, it scared Fatty.

Not only did the Elite chase him, but even the Boss that had missed its target chased him!

Shocked, Fatty quickly ran. Since that Elite monster suffered from the speed reduction effect of the Poison Sting, the Quagmire Boss managed to catch up.

Upon seeing this, Fatty had an idea. When the Boss overtook the Elite monster, he made his character stop for a moment before he released a Poison Sting on the Boss.

The Boss’s movement speed was abruptly reduced and the Elite monster behind was blocked by the Boss, so the Elite monster had to stop. A second later, it started chasing him again.

However, since the Boss and the Elite monster had the same speed, the two of them were on par.

Fatty continued running forward. After some time, the Elite monster’s speed reduction effect, which had been caused by the Poison Sting, had disappeared. When it recovered its movement speed, it was blocked by the Boss every time it moved forward.

The Boss started lagging after it moved forward. Fatty suddenly stopped again and released another Poison Sting that hit it!

This time, the Boss was blocked by the Elite!

This was an alternating process. The two monsters were blocking each other, which actually resulted in Fatty getting away from them!

When Fatty saw this, his confidence increased suddenly. Since he’d counted the time to stop and release his skills, he could keep the two monsters at a safe distance. Thus, Fatty even poisoned the Boss!

As he ran ahead, the two monsters were chasing him. However, given Fatty’s control, the two monsters could not even catch up. Instead, they lost an average of 7 speed points per second.

Even if the Boss and the Elite monster could regenerate their health in battle, it probably wouldn’t be much. At most, it would be about 3 points per second. Such a subtraction was akin to the toxin effect causing the two monsters to lose 4 HP each time. 4 HP per second, 40 HP per 10 seconds, and 400 HP per 100 seconds. That Elite monster, which had 30% HP, only had about 800 HP. In other words, Fatty could kill it in 200 seconds.

200 seconds were around three minutes.

Of course, this was only a theoretical calculation. The result still depended on the actual situation.

Fatty was now in high spirits. The corpses of the party players who had died had disappeared. Fatty supposed that they did not intend to come back to pick up their bodies and had chosen to consume 25% of their equipment durability instead. They could be on their way here now!

The nearest resurrection point should be in the cemetery behind the Immecca Horde. Fatty could not remember how long it would take to come over from there, but he supposed it should take around five or six minutes.

He had to at least kill this Elite before they came back.

While Fatty was calculating, he suddenly realized that the Undead Thief player of that party was heading toward him!

Behind him was the Elite monster!
