68: Chapter 68: Escape from Death 68: Chapter 68: Escape from Death “Dark Bone Lizard, the BOSS!” Hong Guang excitedly roared in a low voice.
They had been searching for this BOSS for several days, and the almost abandoned mission finally held so promise of completion!
However, upon noticing the fireball, confusion crept into his voice.
“Look quickly!
Why is that fireball so familiar?”
“Who cares if it seems familiar!
There are all sorts of fireballs in this ga, it’s not a big deal.
Don’t rush to strike, wait until they’re worn down, then we can swoop in!” Mo Qian seed full of spirit, slapping Hong Guang on his side.
“I called for Strawberry Pudding, she’ll be here soon.
Let’s aim to take down these two BOSSes in one go!” Little You, the ice mage, watched the intense fight between the two bosses.
Her hands quivered passionately.
“Wow, Strawberry Pudding, our big healer!” Mo Qian exclaid in surprise, “Little You, if she can co, these two bosses will surely be ours!”
Hong Guang said with an indifferent expression, “Right, and I’m almost free from being single too.”
“Old Hong, have you no sha!” Mo Qian sneered, “When a tough and assertive man stands here, what girl wouldn’t fall into his arms?”
“Impotent and feeble, you an?” Little You mumbled under her breath but then imdiately flushed and covered her mouth.
“Little You, you!” Mo Qian clutched his heart, acting hurt.
Hong Guang stated monotonously, “Critical hit 100,” then returned his gaze to the once-in-a-lifeti gaming scene.
…
anwhile, Su Ran and Bone Nail stomped through the Dark Swamp, abruptly sensing a change in the atmosphere.
He abruptly halted, looking around curiously.
As he further inspected, Su Ran noticed a larger-than-average Dark Bone Lizard paying them no mind and comfortably feeding on weeds not far away.
This Dark Bone Lizard was fiery red all over, with powerful, bone hooves embedded in the ground.
Its spiked tail ceaselessly beat the grass behind it, and an eerie, orange fla burned in its eyes as it continuously gnawed at the weeds covering the ground.
This Dark Bone Lizard was undoubtedly a powerful BOSS!
[Dark Bone Lizard] (BOSS) Level 20
Qi Blood: 3500
Attack: 98-110
Defense: 110
Agility: 4
Active Skills: Charge – it would exert itself, abruptly hitting the target like a tank, stunning for 2 seconds, and giving an extra 30% damage output.
Reflection – It had a 15% chance of reflecting 20% of the damage taken when attacked by magic.
Passive Skills: Unyielding – Adds a 30% bonus to attack when Qi Blood plunge below 30%.
Indomitable – Agility increases by 3 when Qi Blood drops below 20%.
Reflection?
Su Ran was startled.
He calculated his statistics: his 22-level fire magic was enhanced to 242 points, but it would only decrease 132 points of the Dark Bone Lizard’s Qi Blood.
Oh, how he missed the good old days with Bone Nail, it used to be so cool to neutralize defense!
Soon enough, Su Ran ca to a realization.
Loss always accompanied gain.
The Demonic Realm’s Bone Transformation Technique was a thod for refining weapons from the ancient undead.
Based purely on its grandiose na, it was bound to be quite perverse.
Creating as many Bone Nails as you wanted was terrific!
Mused the little skeleton, his spirits high.
When Su Ran looked at his 492-point Qi Blood, he thought there’s a chance if fortune favors him!
With resolution in his heart, he quietly commanded Bone Nail to burrow sneakily through the grass and ram the unsuspecting Dark Bone Lizard BOSS head-on.
“Thud!”
It was their lucky day, the first strike stunned the Dark Bone Lizard, freezing it in its tracks.
The Baby Bone Worm curled its entire body into a ball and rolled back towards the Dark Bone Lizard Boss.
Seeing the Lizard Boss stunned, Su Ran didn’t waste this golden opportunity.
He instantly slapped a high-grade kindling charm onto the gargantuan skeleton of the Dark Bone Lizard.
“Bang!” “-132”
Incredibly, Su Ran also suffered a red -26!
Su Ran flung his skeletal arm in annoyance.
Just his luck to trigger the 15% reflect chance, what rotten luck.
The Dark Bone Lizard’s stun effect was over.
When it realized it was under attack, it let out a roar and charged at Su Ran, inflating in size as it ran.
It was like a crimson tank charging through the grass, an unexpected sight of beauty in the midst of the chaos.
Imdiately after, another kindling charm ornated this beautiful scene.
“Bang!”
A flaming sphere born from a kindling charm hit the Dark Bone Lizard Boss’s skull, blossoming on its forehead like a firework.
At the sa ti, the Baby Bone Worm struck the Dark Bone Lizard once again.
Unfortunately, luck didn’t favor them this ti and the Lizard wasn’t stunned.
The Dark Bone Lizard stomped continuously as it sustained attacks.
Su Ran wasn’t careful enough, and the Lizard trampled the Baby Bone Worm into the ground, montarily turning it into a pitiful skeletal specin.
The Baby Bone Worm’s backbone creaked – but it held together.
Its 1700 health points weren’t just for show!
Another kindling charm was fiercely tossed by Su Ran, turning into a fiery missile that roared towards the Dark Bone Lizard.
After once again being hit, the Lizard Boss went into a rage, frantically charging towards the skeletal player.
The battle lasted for half an hour.
The thick vegetation seriously hindered Su Ran’s agility and ability to evade, leaving him dependent on his solid avatar, the Baby Bone Worm, to bear the brunt of their attacks from the king of the Dark Swamp, the Dark Bone Lizard.
“Whew, finally down to 20% health, this Boss is tough to beat.
Just the magic reflect alone cost almost 300 health points.
If I get killed by my reflected damage, there will be no one to bla but myself.” Su Ran chuckled bitterly as he looked at his low Qi Blood value.
Suddenly!
“Whoosh –”
An ice-blue long arrow tore through the air in the direction of the battered skeletal mage.
Striking at Su Ran was the signature technique of an Ice System Mage – the Ice Arrow Technique!
While fervently attacking the Dark Bone Lizard, Su Ran had a sudden ominous feeling.
As he cast a sidelong glance, he spotted a long arrow – glowing with icy blue magical energy – speeding towards him!
‘Oh no, a player!’ This was Su Ran’s first thought.
He could only try his best to twist his skeleton, hoping to evade this lethal attack!
Yet at that mont, the Dark Bone Lizard reared on its hind legs and pounced on the distracted Su Ran.
He was now caught in a two-sided attack.
His heart pounded in panic – his only thought – ‘I’m a goner!!!’
“Tss!” “-68”
The Dark Bone Lizard landed a successful hit, delighting in the sight of the skeletal mage beneath its feet, barely clinging onto life.
Just as it was about to make a final strike to finish off the skeletal mage, an ice arrow narrowly missed Su Ran’s skull and hit the Dark Bone Lizard’s spine instead, forming into an ice-blue crystal flower before exploding.
“Bang!”
The Dark Bone Lizard was afflicted by intense pain, turning its wrath towards the Ice System Mage who had drawn its aggro, nad You Jian.
With less than 20% of its health, the Lizard beca unexpectedly agile and left the small skeleton, charging towards You Jian.
Su Ran narrowly escaped death.
Without ti to celebrate his survival, he rolled to the side and concealed himself in the dense vegetation.
Unluckily for Su Ran, Mo Qian appeared where he had just fled.
Clutching his broadsword, Mo Qian touched his shiny forehead, completely bewildered.
‘Where did that skeletal Boss go?’ He was about to trace the tracks when the Baby Bone Worm sprang up and whipped its tail towards Mo Qian.
Caught completely off-guard, Mo Qian was knocked to the ground, his face bearing a blazing red mark.
