38 Twin Snake Ring (1/2)

The Hazard Gnome’s shameless Rocket Boots shocked everyone.

They had never seen a monster that was so good at escaping before. Its human-like expressions and actions were completely different from NPCs. The Hazard Gnome was like a person pretending to be an NPC.

Two streaks of crimson flame flared, slowly lifting the Hazard Gnome into the air.

Unwillingness filled everyone’s hearts. However, they could no longer stop it, but only watch the Hazard Gnome flee with their own eyes. The mages in the party were over 40 yards away from the Hazard Gnome. Lonely Snow as well was over 30 yards apart from it. It was not within the range of Charge. Also, the Faint effect of Charge would become ineffective because the target was floating in midair. Only the Movement Speed increase would take effect.

Currently, only Shi Feng was close to the Hazard Gnome. He was only 15 yards away from it. However, Shi Feng did not have any range attacks. Even if he chased after it, the Hazard Gnome would raise over 20 yards from the ground by the time he arrived. In the end, Shi Feng would only watch the Hazard Gnome escape.

Nine Dragons Slash!

Shi Feng knew he could not catch up. He waved the Abyssal Blade, shrouded in black mist, in his hand. Within an instant, nine streaks of black mist shot towards the Hazard Gnome. Shi Feng was not willing to allow such a smart Hazard Gnome leave.

Initially, Shi Feng only thought of the Hazard Gnome as an average Special Elite. He had never imagined the Gnome to be so much like a player.

Throughout his ten years of playing God’s Domain, Shi Feng rarely saw such intelligent Gnomes. The Main God System wouldn’t simply bestow a small monster with high intelligence. Such bestowals usually had a deeper meaning behind them. For example, those human Heroes or legendary beings were all great characters. Their existences caused people to shudder.

Although the intelligence of this Hazard Gnome did not reach the level of those Heroes or legendary beings, he was still much smarter than a Boss monster. There might even be unimaginable gains by killing it.

Currently, the Hazard Gnome’s displayed information changed. He suddenly became Arcus Maddox.

[Arcus Maddox] (Lord-rank)

Level 5

HP 600/600

Shi Feng felt a sense of familiarity when he saw this name. It seems that he had heard of it before, yet he could not recall anything about it.

However, the Gnome only had 600 HP. Shi Feng was confident he could kill the Gnome with the Nine Dragons Slash.

Just when the nine sword shadows were about to pierce Arcus Maddox, the Gnome took out a few steel balls from his small bag. He threw the balls at the phantoms of the Abyssal Blade.

Brilliant sparks flared up the moment the two attacks came into contact.

Hong… Hong… Hong...

A series of explosions forced the phantoms of the Abyssal Blade back. Just when the phantoms were prepared to attack Arcus Maddox once more, he immediately flew over 30 yards away. Meanwhile, the nine phantoms of the Abyssal Blade could only attack targets within 30 yards of its reach.

hi Feng could only watch helplessly as Arcus Maddox escaped.

“Crap. How could there be such a monster? His escaping ability is just a Bug[1]!” Blackie stared at the fleeing Arcus Maddox as he cursed.

Cola was grinding his teeth in hatred as well, sending a few punches towards a nearby tree.

The other party members felt displeasure also.

Everyone fought long and hard against this Elite monster. However, just when they were about to reap the rewards of their efforts, their prize grew wings and flew away. Was there anything more depressing?

“Brother Feng, let's continue chasing it.” Blackie discovered that the Gnome’s Movement Speed was not fast. Also, there should be a limited amount of fuel powering that pair of boots. Who knows; the Gnome might land just after awhile.

“Forget it. Let’s continue grinding Gnomes.” Shi Feng shook his head. If they could chase the Gnome, Shi Feng would have long since chased after it. However, the Gnome’s Rocket Boots were just too powerful. It was titled as one of God’s Domain’s godly escape tools. Currently, the boots had just been activated. Its speed would abruptly increase in a moment, and the Gnome would disappear in the blink of an eye. It would be an impossible task if they wished to find the Gnome.
