Chapter 635: Super-high Drop Rate (2/2)
”Urghh…”
I gave a low groan as I limply sank into the hot red magma.
Ding~!
System Notice: You have died. You dropped the items ”Soul Suppressing Cloak” and ”Stormy Waves War Boots”!
……
Fuck! Was this boss a weapon of mass destruction like Chaos Moon!? Did he have the Plunder stratagem?! Even a player with 38 Luck like me had dropped two items upon death! Those were two of my favorite items too! What the fuck, was there still justice in this world!?
Light flashed before my eyes and the next thing that I saw was that familiar graveyard. Murong Mingyue was right beside me and she had dropped her staff as well. She looked thoroughly flustered by this turn of events. She had never imagined that this Heaven Rank boss would actually trample over us like this.
He Yi’s voice rang out in the party chat: ”Hurry up and come back! I’m barely managing to hold the boss off right now! Lu Chen, Mingyue, hurry…”
I drew the Cyan Netherworld Sword from its sheath as I hurried over on bare foot. The imposing, blood-red Soul Suppressing Cloak that normally fluttered behind me was nowhere to be seen, so I no longer looked like an awe-inspiring general. Instead, I just looked like some elite footsoldier! Murong Mingyue noticed that as well and she immediately broke out into a fit of laughter as she said, ”So you also have times when you look this pathetic, huh.”
I pursed my lips and retorted, ”Hmph, back when Blue Sky Scar was hunting us down, I looked much more pathetic than this. It happened far more often too! It’s not as if you weren’t there to witness it…”
Murong Mingyue continued to giggle. ”That is true. But ever since you entered Heavenblessed, you’ve steadily climbed back to the top! That’s why I have to say that it’s really rare to see you cut a sorry figure in this game.”
”Quit yapping and nurse me!”
”Wah…”
……
When we reached, we saw that He Yi was using her own pathing and her Firelight Mouse to block the boss. Furthermore, Murong Mingyue had managed to get off one large healing spell before she died to Buffett’s ultimate technique and it had been a critical heal at that, so it pulled He Yi back to 70000 HP. Since my Magic Piercing Punch also managed to cut the duration of Purgatory of Ice and Flame by half, it allowed He Yi to survive this calamitous attack.
”We’re here!”
I leaned forward and I dashed forward. My body soon dipped into a roll as I quickly grabbed the items that I had dropped. I put them on with lightning speed as I also picked Murong Mingyue’s staff up from the ground. I then spun around and used God Binding Art on the Mad Warrior. Divine weapons whistled through the air and slammed into the ground around Buffett. The Mad Warrior had been in hot pursuit of He Yi, but the four divine weapons suddenly bound him up and stopped him from moving!
I couldn’t help but chuckle softly. Very good! God Binding Art really was the best move I had when it came to hunting bosses. This skill was definitely a divine skill, because even Rinser hadn’t been able to teach it to me. It was a skill given to me by Xinran, and it would probably have been extremely hard for me to learn this skill if it wasn’t for her.
Whoosh, whoosh...
Holy light flashed in the air as Murong Mingyue desperately restored He Yi’s HP. I bounded toward the Mad Warrior and knocked off a small chunk of his HP with a furious flurry of blows. I also summoned the Phantom Wolf King and allowed him to rejoin the fray. The little wolf let out a howl of fury as it tore into Buffett. Fucking hell, even though it had become a wolf king, it had to witness this boss wreck his owner over and over again, so it seemed to be boiling with unbridled rage.
As I stared at Buffett, a thought suddenly emerged in my heart. This bastard had killed us so many times. It had better give us drops worthy of a Heaven Rank boss. If he didn’t, we would probably cry tears of blood.
……
Flames and ice continued to shake the ruins of the Roland Empire’s capital. We foreign adventurers had worked so hard to halt the invasion of these Night Creatures and we only had the Mad Warrior Buffett left to kill. Once we killed him, Thunder the Blade of Death would lose his representative in the human world. If that happened, it might really be possible to rescue the Roland Empire from the darkness.
Time crawled by and when Buffett’s health finally dropped to 20%, He Yi, Murong Mingyue, and I shuddered instinctively.
Fuck me sideways, he’s about to use Purgatory of Ice and Magma again, huh! It had already become an unspoken rule that this boss would use that skill every time his health dropped by 10%.
Thunk, thunk, thunk, thunk...
He Yi used the flat of her sword to spur her warhorse forward. Murong Mingyue was riding together with her, so they both managed to escape that hell of ice and flames. They left the rest of us behind. The Phantom Wolf King, my clone, and I had no choice but to make a break for it! Purgatory of Ice and Magma had a radius of roughly 100 yards, so we would live if we started running fast enough.
Just as we expected, the ground started shaking violently not long after and the boss's HP bar was glowing with the color of blood. Countless javelins of ice and spikes of magma devastated the land around him and it seemed as if Buffett was going to tear the ruined palace to the ground with this skill. The Mad Warrior stood proudly amidst the sea of destruction, his axe raised proudly in the air.
Just as expected, the Phantom Wolf King, Ironwing Dragon, and Firelight Mouse all died. They were the victims of his attack this time around.
……
He Yi, Murong Mingyue, and I breathed a collective sigh of relief. We grinned at each other as we said, ”We didn’t die this time…”
Thirty seconds later, I charged back in with the Cyan Netherworld Sword held high. We managed to shave off 10% of the Mad Warrior’s health in ten minutes even without our pets, leaving him with measly 10% of his health bar left.
As soon as their res cooldown ended, we immediately summoned our pets back into the fray! We threw our fodder army forward and beat a quick retreat!
