The King's Avatar

“Don’t be impatient. We’ll wait until the arrow is at the end of its flight, then we’ll take them down in one move. Remember, first kill the players, then the BOSS. We’ll set the targets now. I’ll give them numbers. That Elementalist Crowd Lover is #1, Blade Master #2, Sharpshooter #3, Striker #4, Cleric #5, Berserker #6, don’t forget.” Ye Xiu messaged.

“Got it!”

“Okay, wait for my orders.” Ye Xiu continued to spectate the battle.

Raging Flames!

Outside of the mound, Jiang You’s Crowd Lover waved his hands and cast a spell. A column of fire burst from the ground enveloped the Cliff Ronin Alpine, but the Cliff Ronin was currently in an Enraged state, so Raging Flames wouldn’t launch him into the air.

The Cliff Ronin slashed in a large 270-degree arc, but it was just a Sword Draw and nothing more. In his hands, such a normal skill became something incredible.

Jiang You and the others had expected it. Three of the players were behind the BOSS, inside the 90 degrees where the circular arc wouldn’t reach. Crowd Lover and the Sharpshooter were both outside of the range. Up front, the Blade Master stood directly in front and used a precise Guard to block the Sword Draw.

Guard only blocked a portion of the damage. Even when Guarded against, the BOSS’s skill still did a large chunk of damage. However, the Cleric was already ready and healed him. The Blade Master hit back with his own Sword Draw, slashing out a streak of blood across the Cliff Ronin’s body. The Cliff Ronin roared angrily. He stabbed his sword into the ground: the Berserker skill “Earth Shattering Slash” activated.

This move caused dozens of shattered rocks in the surroundings shoot up. A player’s Earth Shattering Slash wouldn’t have such an effect. It was clearly a buffed skill due to the BOSS’s Enraged state.

“Look at this skill.” Ye Xiu immediately called for Tang Rou and Steamed Bun Invasion’s attention.

“This skill is extremely difficult to interrupt. The scattered rocks are also random, so they’re difficult to defend against. But…… right before the rocks shoot up, the ground will stick up for a short instant. If you pay careful attention to it, you’ll be able to see it. If you react fast enough, you can even dodge them. Look, that Striker over there dodged them well.”

The skill took a heavy toll on Tyrannical Ambition’s team. They also knew how to dodge them, but they weren’t able to guarantee that they could perform such difficult actions precisely when needed. Among the six players, four were in range and three were hit by the rocks. Only that Striker had been able to avoid the rocks.

Tyrannical Ambition’s players didn’t panic though. The two long-range classes continued to attack, while the Cleric hurriedly healed the Blade Master. The Striker immediately used a “Dashing Jab” to close in and followed up with a Grappler’s Back Throw to interrupt the Cliff Ronin’s attack to give everyone some time to recover. From this bout, it could be seen that the Berserker, the player who had discovered the BOSS, wasn’t at the same level as the other five players. His playing wasn’t with the team.

The Blade Master leapt up into the air to avoid the BOSS’s shockwave from getting up and then followed with a Falling Light Blade. The Cliff Ronin Alpine was hit, but knock-back wouldn’t affect an Enraged BOSS. The Cliff Ronin countered with a slash, which the Blade Master Guarded and returned with a Sword Draw again.

Jiang You grew excited. They had been fighting for so long and the BOSS was finally about to be taken down. A Wild BOSS. The strongest of the BOSSes. The drops were also of the greatest value. Even these experts from the Heavenly Domain were excited.

“Almost there! Again!” Jiang You shouted. The others could also see that victory was almost theirs. Their morale was at a peak and once again went for another round of attacks. When the Cliff Ronin Alpine countered, the Blade Master was ready to Guard again.

But just at that moment, three shadows suddenly jumped out from behind a small dirt mound.

“Soft Mist #2, Steamed Bun #5!!”
