Chapter 80: Nichang (2/2)
Roaming Dragon sneered as Iron Pardon walked toward Friends.h.i.+p of Heavens. The latter pulled out his sword and growled, ”Column 1, follow me and annihilate these people! Main tanks, get ready to lure the boss out of its hidey-hole!”
A dozen of elite players raised their blades and rushed toward the Friends.h.i.+p Clan. it was clear that they were planning to clear the area by force.
”You—”
Friends.h.i.+p of Heavens didn't think that the Mad Dragon guild would act so decisively. Iron Pardon stabbed the man right through the chest before he managed to say more than a word, killing him instantly. It was to be expected, however. Iron Pardon was an extraordinarily powerful Level 45 warrior, and Friends.h.i.+p of Heavens was only Level 36.
The Mad Dragon guild's daring came in full display as bloodcurdling screams cut through the air. The Friends.h.i.+p Clan was neatly annihilated in less than three minutes!
After that, Roaming Dragon ordered his people to spread out and get ready. It was a Level 70 boss after all. Even a thousand-man party could fall if they fought carelessly!
……
”What is your opinion on the Mad Dragon guild's current strength?” Lin Yixin asked with a smile. I didn't notice when she had moved back to my side.
I looked at Roaming Dragon, Iron Pardon and Inconstant before commenting lightly. ”Their fangs are bared, and they're looking to die!”
Zi Chuanyu asked, ”Should we attack them now, Yiyi?”
Lin Yixin shook her head. ”No, let's wait until their numbers go down a little.”
Suddenly, there was a huge noise followed by a series of rumblings. The boss was finally going to appear!
Bang!
Huge crevice appeared in the ground, shooting up so much dust that it covered the sky. The Level 70 boss chose a flashy fas.h.i.+on to appear in alright. It was a giant scorpion with six long legs and a pair of black, venomous arms. Its huge, long tail swayed left and right like a chain whip, and it was as big as a small hill. Every move it made caused the ground itself to shake.
Giant Cave Monster (Silver Rank Boss)
Level: 70
Attack: ???
Defense: ???
HP: ???
Description: The divine beast of the Violet Empire. After the Violet Empire fell, their king was cut into pieces, their people were slaughtered, and their divine beast was murdered. Some time later, evil shamans summoned the creatures of h.e.l.l and resurrected the divine beast to use as a puppet.
……
”It really is a Level 70 boss!” Lin Yixin said while clenching her fists.
Her shoulders were shaking slightly, and her moonlit face was filled with excitement. If there was one thing we shared between the two of us, it would be our l.u.s.t for battle.
At the distance, the Giant Cave Monster waved its arms like a pair of scissors and cut down a dozen or so warriors instantly.
Bang!
One of them—Inconstant—was knocked into the air by the attack. His HP was low, but he didn't die because the Holy s.h.i.+eld improved his Defense by a lot!
”Attack! Mages, archers, give it everything you got!” Roaming Dragon waved his arms while shouting, ”Priests, heal as you see fit! Don't worry about MP, I have enough supplies to sustain all of you!”
Countless fireb.a.l.l.s rose and landed on the boss's head. The Giant Cave Monster roared and spun back and forth like a windmill, killing the tiny players that were hara.s.sing it. Its HP was slowly but surely decreasing, however.
At the back, an entire row of beautiful bards was chanting and applying buffs to the mages and archers.
Forge: Increases. .h.i.t rate by 25%.
Valor: Increases Attack by 10%.
b.l.o.o.d.y Battle: Increases Defense by 10%.
Nichang: Increases critical rate by 25%.
……
Lin Yixin and I exchanged a look and saw the astonishment in the other person's eyes. We had underestimated Mad Dragon!
Roaming Dragon had come well prepared. He wasn't just a wealthy man's son, he was also a rare gaming pro!
Formation-wise, Mad Dragon's arrangement was practically perfect. The warriors, magic knights and wanderers gallantly ran up to the boss and sacrificed themselves its attacks. The real pain however, came from the buffed mages and archers at the back. Each and everyone of them was supported by a high-level bard, so their individual prowess was greatly enhanced. Some of the Level 40 archers were even dealing considerable damage to the Level 70 boss!
Pu!
741!
An amazing number suddenly popped up above the boss's head. It was the work of a Level 42 archer!
A small smile appeared on Lin Yixin's face, and I immediately knew that she had set her eyes on that light red-colored bow that made this damage possible.
There was only one reason why a Level 42 player could deal over 700 damage to a Level 70 boss in one hit—that archer's bow had a small chance to ignore its target's Defense and deal true damage. It was the kind of weapon any archer would dream of!
