Chapter 88 The Line of Killing
“What happened? We’re even faster than before when there were 20 players!”
“Perhaps it’s because we’re too strong!”
Looking at the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles whose HP was declining sharply, they were puzzled and didn’t know what had happened.
“The BOSS doesn’t become weak and my damages remain unchanged.”
Night Cooer seemed to have understood something because she found that the Weapon Blessing could last longer.
Xiaofeng was responsible for adding Weapon Blessing to her and the BUFF could last 60 seconds and its cooldown time was 30 seconds. Usually, Xiaofeng would add another Weapon Blessing to her as soon as the cooldown time of 30 seconds passed.
But now, Xiaofeng wouldn’t add another Weapon Blessing to her until the 60 seconds of duration passed.
The changes of 30 seconds meant that Xiaofeng also added the Weapon Blessing to someone else.
Night Cooer was sure that Xiaofeng wouldn’t add the BUFF to other players, otherwise, the player would be astonished by the increase of his attacking force.
Therefore, there could be only one explanation. Xiaofeng added the BUFF to himself. Night Cooer vaguely knew that Xiaofeng’s attacking force was great and horrible was an appropriate word to describe it. Under the help of the BUFF, his attacking force must be amazing.
Night Cooer had attacked the roots behind them and she clearly knew that Xiaofeng could give DPS in secret. The HP of the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles was declining sharply from time to time and she realized what had happened.
“What should we do? If we continue to attack the BOSS, its HP will be reduced to 40% and it will definitely use the skills. If one of us is killed, the rest players may fail to resist the damages of the BOSS.”
The HP of the BOSS was declining sharply and the players present were worried and didn’t know what to do. War Spirit Knife asked them with hesitation.
“Let’s continue to attack it! We can give a higher DPS without the good-for-nothing priest! Let’s focus on the BOSS and kill it!”
Therapeutical Paladin snorted with disdain and kept on attacking the BOSS.
“Of course, we have to keep on attacking it. But we must be careful when the BOSS uses its skills.”
17-Year-Old Archer also agreed with him. Other players accepted this arrangement without opposition and continued to attack the BOSS.
“Be careful!”
Soon the HP of the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles was reduced to 40%. Its thick body squirmed and then the ground under the feet of these players suddenly cracked and several sharp roots broke through the soil.
Night Cooer who was about to chop them suddenly took a step back because she missed her target. These sharp roots didn’t lash them like a whip, instead, their heads stood out like the tender tips of bamboo shoots.
But Night Cooer thought that it would lash her like a whip and she attacked the upper part of the roots, so she missed the target. She immediately noticed that something was wrong with the roots and then stepped back.
The creaking sound.
Everyone was staring at the roots and they finally showed their true colors. All of them jumped up and the players suddenly found that they were little tree men.
The creaking sound.
There were seven little tree men and they were about one meter tall. They immediately rushed at the seven players as soon as they broke through the soil.
“They are summoning little monsters! They are elite monsters at level 15 and have 1800 health points and 80 points of attacking force! They are threatening to players!”
“Let’s first kill these little monsters! Shield warriors and the assistant player need to try your best to resist its damages! Players of DPS will come to help you once they kill their own little monsters!”
“It seems that these monsters are refreshed based on the number of players. Fortunately, the good-for-nothing players have already been killed, otherwise, they will become a drag on our progress,” Therapeutical Paladin said. War Spirit Knife frowned but said nothing to him. War Spirit Ziyi, who was from the same guild as him, had also been killed.
Elite monsters of level 15 were difficult to deal with, but all the seven players present, including the shield warrior who had low DPS, could kill one of them. Players of other professions could kill it more easily. Besides, in order to save time, they used various skills on these monsters.
Night Cooer was the first to kill the monster. She was in the front row and immediately came to help War Spirit Knife and other players as soon as she killed her own monster.
17-Year-Old Archer and Xiaofeng were in the back row. 17-Year-Old Archer showed off his skilled blocking and used the H&R to kill the monster. Then he turned around and wanted to help Xiaofeng. But the corpse of Xiaofeng’s little tree man had already become cold, which made 17-Year-Old Archer puzzled and astonished.
“Let’s continue to attack the BOSS!”
They killed the seven little tree men easily and quickly. Perhaps this was because there were few players and all these players present were strong and skilled. Xiaofeng believed that they must get involved in the melee if there were 20 players.
They continued to attack the BOSS. The attacking force of the other players remained unchanged and they wondered why the HP of the BOSS was declining sharply.
They felt more puzzled but it was undeniable that the HP of the BOSS was indeed declining sharply. They were likely to kill the BOSS. So they ignored the doubts and tried their best to attack the BOSS.
At this moment, Lao Xu and other players were still on the way and they had just killed the first wave of little monsters. They were still far away from the room of the second BOSS, so the seven players present had no alternative but to keep attacking the BOSS.
“Its HP is reduced to 30%!”
Someone exclaimed in wonder. The HP of the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles was reduced to 30% and they were in a new stage.
“It uses the Entangled Roots once again! Hurry up and run away!”
At the same time, countless roots appeared on the ground and tried to stop the players. All of them hurried to run away, but someone still got entangled in the roots.
“Priest, heal me!”
He was a shield warrior. Players of this profession were not agile enough and couldn’t move quickly. Besides, the front-row players were gathering together and many roots immediately appeared under their feet. This shield warrior escaped the first two roots but didn’t notice that there was still a root behind him, so he immediately got entangled.
Xiaofeng was about to increase his HP but he suddenly noticed that there was something wrong. The HP of the shield warrior was declining slowly.
“-10!”
“-10!”
“-10!”
...
“Look at the BOSS! It’s HP is increasing!”
War Spirit Knife suddenly exclaimed and everyone turned around and looked at the BOSS. Many green figures of healing appeared on the head of the BOSS while the HP of the shield warrior was declining.
“+70!”
“+70!”
“+70!”
...
“Get rid of the roots on his body! The BOSS is sucking HP from him!”
Therapeutical Paladin shouted and rushed at the shield warrior.
Night Cooer was standing nearest him. She took two quick steps forward and cut the roots on the shield warrior with her dagger.
“-177!”
A figure of damages appeared on the head of the shield warrior instead of the roots.
Night Cooer immediately stopped and felt frightened and shocked. She didn’t expect that the HP of her teammate was reduced after she attacked the roots.
“Hurry up and kill him! Otherwise, the BOSS will continue to absorb his health points!”
Therapeutical Paladin rushed past Night Cooer and slammed a hammer against the shield warrior without hesitation. The shield warrior had already suffered from damages of the BOSS and Night Cooer. He only had a few health points and was directly seckilled. He fell to the ground and became the corpse. At the same time, the HP of the BOSS also stopped increasing.
Therapeutical Paladin looked at the BOSS without any emotions and said, “Let’s continue to attack the BOSS!”
The player who became the corpse and lay on the ground also said nothing. He disappeared with white lights after a while and returned to the entrance of the instance zone for resuscitation.
“The BOSS can absorb the health points of all the players. Fortunately, most of our teammates had already been killed, otherwise, its HP can increase by 200 points per second and will become full once again after a while!” Therapeutical Paladin snorted.
The other players kept silent and continued to attack the BOSS without saying anything. Although one of them was killed, their efficiency of DPS remained the same because he was a shield warrior.
Lao Xu and other players killed the second wave of little monsters. At the same time, the HP of the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles was also reduced to 20%.
“Does the little tree man appear once again?”
War Spirit Knife looked at the treetops on the ground and said in a low voice.
But obviously, Xiaofeng and his teammates underestimated the ability of the BOSS.
At this time, the BOSS used two skills. Firstly, a group of little tree men appeared and chased them and then it used the Entangled Roots once again. They got involved in the melee. They could hardly resist the damages of the little tree men, let alone survived the Entangled Roots.
Night Cooer was dealing with the little tree men and three waves of Entangled Roots at the same time. She found it difficult to resist their damages and the other players were at greater risk than she was.
War Spirit Knife and the other front-row player got entangled in the roots because they were not agile enough. At the same time, they were also whipped by the little tree men.
Xiaofeng had two healing skills but the HP of other players was declining sharply. The three waves of Entangled Roots could cause 300 points of damages, so Xiaofeng could only save one player. After thinking for a while, he chose to save War Spirit Knife and the other front-row player fell into the ground and became the corpse.
“Fuck!”
There were only six players now. Therapeutical Paladin looked at the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles which only had 20% of HP and his face obviously darkened.
Xiaofeng was not worried at all but the other three players, including Night Cooer, 17-Year-Old Archer, and War Spirit Knife looked grave. The BOSS only had 20% of health points now but it became more dangerous!
“Let’s continue to attack the BOSS!”
They shouldn’t be hesitant. At this moment, there were only 5 players and the other 25 players had been killed. And the BOSS only had 20% of HP. They had no choice but to fight with the BOSS.
Fortunately, they found that their DPS was still high even though there were only five players. When Lao Xu and his partners killed the third wave of monsters, the HP of the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles was reduced to 10%!
“We’d better stop and wait for Lao Xu and other players. The BOSS still has a major skill and we may fail to resist the damages without the help of other players.” War Spirit Knife asked with hesitation.
“Wait for them? Why? The more players there are, the stronger the BOSS is. All of us may be killed by the BOSS if these good-for-nothing players come to help us!” Therapeutical Paladin snorted and continued to say, “Let’s continue to attack the BOSS! We can kill it by ourselves!”
He seemed to be proud and arrogant, But the previous skills of the BOSS indicated that he was right. War Spirit Knife looked back at Xiaofeng who was calm and became relieved. Then he made up his mind and rushed at the BOSS.
The creaking sound.
The HP of the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles was quickly reduced to 10% and the familiar little tree men appeared once again. But the five players present were experienced and they just stared at the ground under their feet instead of attacking the tree men. But to their surprise, the ground under their feet was quite. Roots appeared under the feet of the little tree men and tied them up. Xiaofeng and the other four players were puzzled and didn’t know what happened. But at the same time, many figures of healing appeared on the head of the Fire Tree Magical Tentacles.
“+50!”
“+50!”
“+50!”
“+50!”
