Chapter 70: World of Ice and Snow (2/2)
Damn, he got me!
Roaming Dragon laughed like an actual madman before shouting, “Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand, I spent 50 gold on this card just for you! I’m willing to spend any amount of money if it means ending your life!”
Fire Dragon Roar, Penetrating Arrow and Meteor hit me as I retreated with difficulty. I stared helplessly at my falling HP and drank a Rank 3 Health Potion right before the killing blow, recovering 600 HP immediately. At the same time, I opened my palm and shouted, “Dark Wasp!”
A hexagram formation glowed brightly with magic as the Dark Wasp answered my call and zipped toward the archers and mages who were attacking me. The interruption lowered their damage output by a considerable margin.
I just needed one second, one second and I would be able to use Earth Escape!
The enemy mages killed my Dark Wasp and my HP had fallen to 100. However, the distraction of my pet bought me the well-needed second of respite!
Swhoosh!
The moment my body melted completely into the ground, I moved at full speed toward the boss still rampaging above. Right now, half of the valley was affected by the card “World of Ice and Snow”, and I was the only person who was buffeted by the spell. It would be incredibly disadvantageous for me to clash against them directly on the ground!
My HP recovered swiftly as I checked the situation above the ground. Hill Protector God was on its last legs, but less than ten players of the Mad Dragon guild were still alive. They were barely holding their formation together, and they could die at any moment!
The Dark Wasp was dead, and I couldn’t resummon it after such a short time. I will have to kill this boss myself.
My only shot at victory was Pardon. It was a skill that greatly lowered my target’s Defense, and right now it was my ultimate trump card!
Roaming Dragon exploded after I made my escape, wasting his 50 gold for nothing. Eyes bloodshot and mouth fuming with anger, he roared, “Motherfucker! Focus down the boss and try to get Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand if you can! He must die! Bastard! Bastard!!!”
Coldmoon Rose pulled her bow and fired at the boss. Since all the mages were dead, she was the Mad Dragon guild’s highest DPSer right now.
I slowly made my way toward the boss while thanking my Rank 3 Health Potions profusely. I would’ve died if it wasn’t for them, and I still had a couple of them in my bag right now. Lin Yixin had gifted them to me for free, so really I should be thanking her.
I spent almost a minute making my way underneath the boss’s feet. My HP had recovered to full thanks to my pots and Regeneration of the Undead.
The strongest female archer of the Mad Dragon guild, Coldmoon Rose, suddenly eyed a patch of ground coldly and fired five arrows in a row. It was Archer’s signature skill, Volley, and it seemed to be at least Rank 3!
Thud!
57!
Unfortunately, I was struck by one of the arrows. A flash of bloody light later, I was forced out of the underground.
“He was there. Kill him!” Roaming Dragon shouted, but he was surrounded by archers. It was impossible for them to one-shot me, so Coldmoon Rose said coldly, “You go!”
“Alright!”
Roaming Dragon raised his blade and charged me. He had finally overcome his fear of death.
Ignoring his attack completely, I ran toward the boss and swung Pardon at it. Then, I followed up with a deadly Slayer Slash!
MISS!
1208!
Fuck! The boss still isn’t dead after that?!
Eyes bulging with disbelief, I swung my sword at the boss again. However, the Hill Protector God was already bringing down his right leg on me. It was the Thunder God’s Stampede!
I’m so dead!
I groaned on the inside, but didn’t hesitate to unleash my final attack!
Crack!
147!
It was a pitiful amount of damage, but as it turned out the boss had only had that much HP. A heaven-piercing roar later, the Hill Protector God was finally dead!
Swoosh swoosh!
I leveled up twice in a row and hit Level 43. I was now at the same level as Lin Yixin!
I wasted no time in leaping into the air and grabbing everything the boss dropped. A quick glance at my bag revealed a couple of Phantasmal Magic Stones and two pieces of equipment—a pair of war boots with a dark glow, and a sword that looked like it was covered in a sheen of ice. Neither of them looked like ordinary items!
That was all the time I could afford before I had to tear my eyes away from my bag. After all, six archers and a maddened Roaming Dragon were attacking me!
“Die!”
Roaming Dragon used Flame Thrust and penetrated my chest with his spear. Huh, his attack power is quite impressive!
287!
Hmph, if Roaming Dragon had taken action just a bit earlier, I might not have had the chance to kill this boss.
There were arrows everywhere, leaving me no space to dodge, so I had not choice but to suffer the attacks. Both my Pardon and my Rank 3 Health Potion were still on cooldown, and the valley was still under the effects of Roaming Dragon’s card. Worse, both my movement speed and attack speed were drastically lowered. I was at my rope’s end.
Pu!
Coldmoon Rose’s Devil Piercing Arrow hit me for 217 HP. They finally managed to kill me.
……
My vision turned black, and I collapsed to the ground. When my soul rose from my body, I immediately checked what I lost and was pleasantly surprised by my discovery. The two items I had gotten from the boss were still in my bag. I had lost some potions, consumables, three Phantasmal Magic Stones and four stacks of Garlic. However, all the important items were still there.
Roaming Dragon had to be the most devastated person in the world right now. He spent a fortune to kill the boss, but almost all the profits fell into my lap. He must be out of his mind right now, haha!
