Chapter 269: Shoot that Motherf*cker (2/2)

It was no different from cockroaches occupying your kitchen and then a sign on the door that read ‘no entry for humans or dogs’, and so Vlad, who had patiently conned the whole Mountain Tiger tribe was now uncharacteristically infuriated.

As his face contorted, the frost covering it broke and crumbled, revealing the ferocious visage underneath.

“I’m not showing mercy even if you beg now! Die!”

Even before he finished, thick bolts of purple-red thunder struck out like spears of malevolence from the blood clouds, piercing heaven and earth just to strike the Player who had mocked him directly.

Despite being prepared, he couldn’t fully block the thunderous blow and was instantly blown into a million different pieces.

“Clerics! Revive that idiot, quick!” Another Player shouted. “He is going to be the best tank we have now! As long as he’s still alive, the Boss’s hate would never turn to us!”

“Tsk!” The Cleric beside him merely gave that Player a middle-finger for his suggestion. “He’s all over the place.”

“Sweeping up and gathering his ashes might work.” Another Player suggested.

And that was when a gust kicked up, blowing away the Player’s ashes into the wind…

Then, more purple-red bolts descended from the skies.

Even if the Players tried to evade them, the bolts seemed to arc towards them. Moreover, those bolts wouldn’t reach for other players even if they were closer, but would always stay on the targeted Players they locked on to earlier!

Fortunately, Clerics and Holy Lancers who took on defensive routes had preemptively shielded those Players, and so prevented them from being blown into ashes as well.

Be that as it may, the ones struck were left staggered, their whole body getting numb and shaking—they were out of the battle for now.

“Your hairs would stand up when the bolts are targeting you!” Edward’s sharp eyes immediately picked up on the key. “Shields up! Everyone else, attack that Boss!”

Then, he muttered to himself. “But this is not going to work, we need something to shoot down that motherf*cker with… What’s the long-range skill with the highest damage right amongst all Player classes right now?”

“If we don’t count Eleena or Princess Leah, it’s going to be the Holy Lancers’ Third Seal Release: Range of Truth.”

Gou Dan, who was always writing gossip in his news posts had gathered a bunch of random information which finally proved useful now. “Even if the Holy Lancer is ten levels lower than you, give him time to release his seal, aim and charge, he would deal even more damage than you with your Black Dragon Hellfire… of course, that is only if you’re not using Happy Flames.”

“Ok, I get the idea.” Edward nodded. “And from the look of those two thunderstrikes, that thing can’t move when he fires those bolts…”

“After that, Eleena and I will get his attention since we are stronger than most, so it’s easier for us to make him turn to us,” Edward said, swiftly putting the last touches to his plan. “You and Joe should hurry up with other Players-provide cover as best as you all could for the Holy Lancers even if the Boss releases a third barrage of thunderbolts. The fourth barrage is your signal to attack, so knock him down from the skies in one go!”
