Witch of Divine Punishnt
Chen Mo had not foreseen that he could not afford to be attacked by Enoch even once.
However, he knew his guess of Enoch’s 30,000 HP was not going to be too far off the mark.
He might have given up on this quest right away if he’d known that he would not defeat Enoch unscathed.
The difficulty level was too high. If he had not gotten the Sli King Jewellery Set, enabling him to summon a Mutated Sli for help, he would have no chance at all in defeating Enoch.
Now, with a Mutated Sli, Chen Mo had a way to deal with Enoch.
He ran to the Mutated Green Sli and hid behind it, then downed a bottle of Low-Level Mutated Strength Drug.
Other than adding 20 points to Strength, the Low-Level Mutated Strength Drug enabled the user to deal an additional 20 damage to physical attacks on enemies.
This drug was rare. Chen Mo only got three bottles from killing Mutated Goblins six tis. He was loath to use it but the situation demanded it.
He gulped the drug, and imdiately started firing wildly with his crossbow at the advancing Enoch.
Enoch had not expected her lightning attack to fail. She beca more incensed and determined to catch Chen Mo.
But Chen Mo was not going to give her another chance to get to him. The spacious room had no obstacles but Chen Mo made one out of the Mutated Green Sli to protect himself.
Normal Slis were at most as big as a basketball. Mutated Slis, on the other hand, were three tis bigger – akin to a large balloon.
Enoch’s speed now was no match for Chen Mo’s. She could not catch him while he circled the Mutated Sli.
Additionally, with the Mutated Sli between himself and Enoch, she was unable to attack him with her lightning attack.
He was not very bothered by her other attack since it would just land on the Mutated Sli. He made the Mutated Sli stay in one spot to act as an obstacle; it only jumped up to hit Enoch whenever she approached.
Bolt after bolt hit Enoch. Poison Tinted Crossbow, Sli Poison, the crossbow skill and the added damage from Mutated Strength Drug combined to enable Chen Mo to deal close to 400 DMG per bolt. Enoch’s HP fell quickly and she lost over 10,000 HP in a short ti. Her HP was now under 20,000.
“Shadow Ambush!” Enoch could stand it no longer. With a flick of her wrist, a line of shadow shot towards Chen Mo.
Though he made use of the Mutated Sli to make Enoch run around in circles, Chen Mo had not let his guard down for even a second. He watched Enoch closely and when he saw her move her wrist, he knew from the angle of her movent that she was about to use a new skill.
However, this skill was more than he had expected!
Enoch’s attack seed to make her dagger beco a shadow. She hurled it towards him.
It was different from the Lightning attack. When she used it, she could move herself directly in front of Chen Mo. However, the Mutated Sli occupied the space in front of Chen Mo, so she could not use the skill due to the blocked space. Shadow Ambush, on the other hand, passed above the Mutated Sli’s head and continued on its trajectory towards Chen Mo.
Because of his hyper-awareness of Enoch, Chen Mo detected the skill right away so he was still able to dodge it despite the suddenness of the attack.
But the mont she used Shadow Ambush, her body tensed like the string on a bow. Chen Mo had a strong feeling that no matter which way he dodged, Enoch would be there by his side, successful in her attempt to get close and attack him!
It was unavoidable!
Chen Mo instantly made his decision.
He could not afford to get hit by her attack. What could he do?
Wind-speed Dodge’s effect had ended but even if it was still active, the chance of avoidance was just 20%. The likelihood of being hit was still quite high.
Sli King’s Roar!
“Jump!”
Chen Mo did not avoid the attack but he was not helpless either.
He used Sli King’s Roar to boost the stats for himself and his summoned sli, then commanded the sli to jump.
The Mutated Sli’s jumping height was pathetic and it was not possible for it to jump and block Enoch’s shadow dagger but under the influence of the boost, its jumping height increased by two tres!
The Mutated Sli executed Chen Mo’s command without hesitation.
The shadow dagger whistled through the air as the Mutated Sli jumped. The dagger struck the Mutated Sli and a damage number of 700 floated above the sli’s head as its speed suddenly slowed.
Not only did Shadow Ambush deal a lot of damage, it also had a negative effect. A grey-glow appeared in the Mutated Sli’s sparkly black eyes – blindness.
Slowing and blinding! If this mid-range attack hit him, he would be either captured or dead!
He knew it – not one attack of hers must land on him!
Enoch’s eye widened and her tensed body loosened. She’s never imagined that the Mutated Sli would jump up and block her attack.
“Heh heh. Any more moves? You’d better use them!” Chen Mo provoked Enoch.
It was best to have her use all her moves while Sli King’s Roar was still in effect.
However, Enoch just glared at Chen Mo and stuck to her old plan of trying to get closer to him.
Chen Mo would not give her a chance, of course. They circled the Mutated Sli as Chen Mo shot bolts and threw the occasional Basic Trap at Enoch.
Chen Mo wanted to avoid using up the Quake Traps if he could; they could be used to save his life.
Enoch was unable to get close to Chen Mo to attack and she was getting hit by a continuous barrage of bolts. Her HP dropped to below 10,000, then dropped further.
9000HP… 7000HP…
Chen Mo kept a close watch on Enoch. He was getting nervous.
Technically speaking, Enoch was at most a Level 10 BOSS. As the mightiest of the Level 10 BOSSes, the Mutated Sli King did not mutate when its HP dropped to a certain point, so it followed that Enoch would not either.
But Enoch and the Mutated Sli King were different. She was an NPC with an actual backstory and status, unlike the low-level Sli King BOSS, which anyone could kill. Chen Mo would not find it strange if she were to undergo so change at certain HP levels.
6000 HP!… 4000 HP!…
Just 15% HP left!
There was still no change in Enoch. Did this an she would not mutate?
The final spurt! Finish her off!
At this point, Chen Mo beca less cautious. While he still dodged Enoch’s attacks, his own attacks grew increasingly accurate and fiercer. Enoch’s HP went down rapidly!
Remaining HP……3000！
The final 10%!
“Shaless Adventurer! You are stronger than you seem! However, Evil can never triumph over Justice! Appear, Witch of Divine Punishnt!”
Just 10% of Enoch’s HP was left when that Chen Mo had feared would happen, happened.
Enoch stopped chasing Chen Mo and retrieved an ancient wooden plaque from her backpack. As soon as the words left her mouth, the wooden plaque started glowing with a black light.
Chen Mo felt the ground soften. The entire floor’s surface had turned into a dark swamp.
A familiar dark figure erged from the swampy surface in the middle of the room.
Chen Mo was surprised when he saw the figure.
The Witch of Divine Punishnt was the sa as the figures he had seen in the land of Divine Punishnt!
