Chapter 20 (2/2)
“Eh, look there.” The human Warrior was very observant and spotted the Goblin and Orcs at once.
“Damn, a golden avatar, it’s a Boss. Great, activate the Buffs, let’s attack.”
The Mage was cautious. “Will this be dangerous?”
“What are you afraid of? You can summon the water element’s Double Ice Rings to freeze the lackeys while we gang up on the Boss.”
“Alright, that’s the plan. Go attract the monsters’ attention,” the Mage said. Then the three of them got into a line formation. The Warrior stood at the front, followed by the Mage, and, lastly, the Priest.
Xiao Yu snorted to himself. Were they planning to let the Warrior charge and taunt and then follow up with the Mage’s Ice Rings? Did they really think that he could not understand human language? These guys had to be newbies, seeing how they were discussing their strategies in front of the enemy. They were probably not familiar with this game’s mechanics. Didn’t they know that it was possible for players to play as wild monsters?
He lowered his voice and instructed the three orcs, “The three of you go your separate ways and surround them from both sides. Concentrate your attacks on the Priest, leave the Mage and Warrior to me. You guys only have to handle the Priest. Do you understand?”
The three Orcs exchanged glances and nodded uniformly before going to either side.
“Eh, why did the monsters separate? Where are they going?” Purple Toffee, the Mage, asked with surprise laced in her voice.
The Warrior, Supreme Sword, was unabashed as he said, “Isn’t that better for us? We only have to deal with the Boss. Okay, I am going to attack. Soya, be on alert.”
After saying his piece, he bolted towards the Goblin Boss before realizing that something was off. The Goblin stopped a distance away and began chanting.
Eric (Goblin Flame Warlock) chanted, “In my name, Eric, I summon you, the spirit from the Elemental World. Show yourself, Fire Element!”
A crimson red magic formation circle rose from the ground and a Fire Element the height of a man was summoned from the circle.
Supreme Sword said, “What the f*ck? What’s going on? It can trigger the battle from that distance?”
While he was in a daze, the Goblin Boss pointed his staff at him.
Flame Missile. Five missiles manifested around Xiao Yu and blasted towards Supreme Sword when Xiao Yu waved his hand.
“Damn it! I was noticed! This is so scary.”
He raised his shield hastily. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom! A series of explosions occurred when the five missiles were all blocked. However, the series of attacks had still managed to deal 20 plus points of damage.
System prompt message: You have dealt 72 points of Fire Damage to Supreme Sword. 49 points were blocked, 23 points were effective damage.
Xiao Yu sighed when he realized that the damage dealt was so little. It was to be expected as the game was programmed to be as realistic as possible. Hence, blocking or even dodging fire missiles and ice arrows was highly likely.
Supreme Sword was still in a state of shock. If his block had been slower, half of his 168 HP would’ve been gone. A good one-sixth was gone now.
No, he could not hesitate any longer! He gritted his teeth in determination and bolted towards Xiao Yu as he slashed his sword straight down.
