Chapter 528: One-horned Golden Dragon (2/2)
”There wasn’t time. What’s wrong?” I asked.
Chaos Moon replied with a smile, ”When the Nine Lost Dragon Domains first opened, everyone was swarming it like sharks who caught the scent of blood, right? That lasted until the Wood Porcupines of the Wood Dragon Domain burst their courage like a bubble. Right now the people on the forums are claiming that Nine Lost Dragon Domains is a cursed and unlucky place. Long story short, at least 90% of the existing players hate this map to the bone, and they won’t be entering this map anytime soon.”
”That will be for the best. The more people there are, the harder it will be for us to fight a boss…” I commented.
Li Chengfeng nodded in agreement. ”Yeah, we already have too many competitors as it is. The powerful guilds in Sky City. Candle Dragon, Purple Lily, and Peach Garden from Wind City. Ten top guilds of Vanished God City. And there’s more. Each is more troublesome than the last. To be honest, we should thank our ancestors if we managed to grab two or even just one dragon scale when this is all over.”
High Fighting Spirits chided him. ”Li, you’re ever the pessimist who looks down on your own strength, you know that?”
Li Chengfeng smiled but didn’t reply to that.
I said, ”Chengfeng is right. In this place there are only a handful of guilds we can really call our allies, and our enemies are everywhere. Anyway, just be on your guard, okay?”
”Mn! Mn!”
……
We arrived at the entrance of a canyon just as the conversation ended. It was a terribly still and smelly place.
Gui Guzi and a couple of magic knights rode into the canyon to scout the area. The next moment, they rushed out like frightened sheeps as a jet of golden flames blasted against their asses!
”Fuck! The boss is inside the canyon! Prepare for battle!”
I pulled out the Heaven-stealing Sword and ran toward the boss with Li Chengfeng and the others. At the back, Beiming Xue and our ranged players also got ready to unleash their attacks.
An earthshaking roar blasted out of the canyon. A couple of seconds later, a golden claw appeared at the top of the hill, followed by the sinister-looking head of a one-horned dragon. It extended its wings and pulled itself to full length. The One-horned Golden Dragon had appeared!
”Fuck, it’s definitely the One-horned Golden Dragon!”
Li Chengfeng stared blankly at the ridiculously huge giant dragon for a time. Even he was stunned by its appearance, to say nothing of the others.
I shouted to break everyone out of their daze, ”Stop dreaming and prepare to fight! Magic knights, grab its attention. Damage dealers, get into positions and blast its ass! Priests, keep everyone alive! Remember, it’s just a Level 155 Earth Rank boss! We can definitely do this!”
I was running toward the boss even as I barked out the orders. The boss's stats appeared after I moved closer to it—
One-horned Golden Dragon (Earth Rank Boss)
Level: 155
Attack: 2240~3000
Defense: 2800
HP: 10,000,000
Skills: Dragon Blade, Scale Armor, Golden Barrier Blade
Introduction: One of the legendary Golden Dragons. The One-horned Golden Dragon isn’t as powerful as the Three-headed Golden Dragon, but it is still an excellent warrior of the dragon race. Moreover, this particular One-horned Golden Dragon is rebellious, evil, violent and very aggressive.
……
”OMG, these stats are… an upper Attack limit of 3000? I can’t even imagine how painful it’ll be to get hit by it...” Li Chengfeng sucked in a deep breath. ”Let’s wait while those with Knight God and Royal Road aggro the boss. It’d be unwise to challenge it head-on without extra HP and Defense…”
I nodded in agreement. ”You heard him. Those with Knight God should go first. Eve, you and your party should go too. I leave the MT position to you all…”
He Yi got up her horse, smacked its butt with Whirlwind and rode toward the boss like a lightning bolt. On the other side, Gui Guzi was gripping his Rainbow in one hand and charging the boss as well. The complete lack of fear on their faces greatly raised our parties’ morale.
Swhoosh! Swhoosh!
He Yi and Gui Guzi activated their Charge at the same time. An instant later, Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun did the same as well. However, none of them managed to stun the boss! Unlucky!
”Roar!”
The One-horned Golden Dragon roared angrily. Still crouching atop the hill, it swung a gigantic paw at He Yi.
