As he observed the level 20 Elite Boss in front of him, a solemn look crossed Song Jian’s eyes. On paper, this boss was tougher than any level 20 Elite Boss he had encountered before-it could even be deemed comparable to the Lord level bosses he’d faced.

Bloody Baron Gurman, a semi-demonic creature, Elite Level Boss, level 20, with 5000/5000 Vitality Points. Traits: Demonic Skin, Bloodthirsty. Skills:’ Blood explosion, Blood Tide, Plague of Blood, Fatal Strike;

“I recognize him – he used to be a Baron of the City of Hymns. It is said his whole family has been exterminated, and he disappeared. I never would have expected that he’d become a fallen demonic creature!” One of the Dawn Warriors, furrowing his eyebrows, whispered while staring at the Boss.

“Be careful, he was once a grand knight; his strength is nearly on par with the Knight of Dawn!”

“If it’s only us three, we won’t stand a chance…”

“Everyone be careful, and dodge his skills,” Song Jian softly said, “ready up, I’m initiating the attack!”

Previously, it was the Dawn Warriors who initiated attacks on monsters. But due to Song Jian’s high damage output, he easily attracted the boss’s hostility; hence, he took on the responsibility of initiating the attack.

Furthermore, given the Boss’ current strength, it seemed likely that the Dawn Warriors would struggle to take it down;

Earth Teeth Assault!

A tusk-shaped Qi mass howled towards the Bloody Baron. With a “boom”, the Baron, who was standing by the experimental table, was pushed back two steps. Unintentionally, he slashed with his surgical knife, causing a sudden outpour of blood from the humanoid creature on the table;

“Damn it, you ruined my experiment!” The Bloody Baron roared in anger, pulling out a spear from a nearby cabinet, then growled as he charged towards Song Jian;

“Dawn Charge!” A Dawn Warrior yelled as he charged at the Bloody Baron, ruthlessly slashing at him with his longsword.

“Dawn Charge!” The remaining Dawn Warriors also deployed the charge skill, pouncing towards the Bloody Baron;

At this moment, the Bloody Baron’s hatred was firmly locked onto Song Jian. The continuous charges only made his body slightly sway, not impeding his aggression.

“His resistances are so high, we can only stun him for 0.3 seconds,” exclaimed a Dawn Warrior.

“His defense is also incredibly high. The damage from Dawn Charge is only in the tens. Be careful!” Another Dawn Warrior shouted with a warning.

Seeing the Bloody Baron charge at him, Song Jian pulled out a bottle of Weakness Potion and violently tossed it at him;

Next, he took out a bottle of Slow Medicine and threw it down at the Bloody Baron’s feet;

Immediately, the Bloody Baron’s speed went down and even his act of waving the spear slowed considerably;

Broken Wing Dance!

Song Jian wielded the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword, ruthlessly hacking away at the Bloody Baron;

With a roar, the Black Dragon cub shot into the air. A massive dark purple fireball was released from its mouth, striking the Bloody Baron directly.

-113, -135, -145-

A series of damages over 100 points appeared above the Bloody Baron’s head;

Blood Tide!

Suddenly, a powerful energy surge emerged from the Bloody Baron. Waves of scarlet energy, with the Baron at the center, expanded outwards, enveloping Song Jian and the three Dawn Warriors.

Both the Dawn Warriors and Song Jian saw numbers indicating a dozen or so damage points quickly float above their heads, while the Bloody Baron’s Vitality Points were rapidly reclaiming;

“Get out of the skill range!” Song Jian bellowed. He transformed into a silhouette, hastily retreating in the distance. The Dawn Warriors also ceased their attacks, rushing towards areas far away from the Bloody Baron;

The range of the Bloody Baron’s skill was enormously wide, almost taking up half of the cave, ranged classes had an opportunity to escape, but it was hard for close combat classes to dodge this attack.

Song Jian and the three Dawn Warriors barely managed to escape. Their vitality had plummeted over 300 points, while the Bloody Baron’s vitality was instantly replenished by nearly 500 points.

The Black Dragon hatchling was still persistently attacking as it wasn’ t enveloped by the Blood Tide due to being in the air;

The Bloody Baron was immobilized after he cast the Blood Tide. Seeing the four melee professionals leave, the Bloody Baron halted the Blood Tide, brandished his spear blade and pointed towards Song Jian;

A crimson beam of light shot towards Song Jian’s back instantly;

Blood Explosion!

The Bloody Baron growled, with a trace of black breath in his eyes, revealing a fierce expression on his face.

Just as the crimson beam reached Song Jian’s back, a faint golden glow burst from the surface of his body. His running body was turned around by a mysterious force, and he swung his long sword harshly in front of him;

Sacred Parry!

Clang-

With a muffled noise, the crimson beam of light was shattered by Song Jian’s sword. Then, an identical crimson beam erupted from the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword, directed at the Bloody Baron;

Thud-

This crimson beam pierced through the Bloody Baron’s heart, exploded out from his back. A damage of over 600 points sprang up from above the Bloody Baron’s head;

“How could this be…” The Bloody Baron was dumbstruck, his eyes fixed on Song Jian, filled with intense dread.

“Knight of Dawn, this is the skill of the Knight of Dawn…” one of the Dawn Warriors shouted, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked at Song Jian;

Praise be to You, Goddess of Dawn, your exclusive knight has finally reappeared in the mortal world…” Three Dawn Warriors cried out in unison, their eyes filled with the adoration of fans for their idol as they looked at Song Jian.

System: “Dawn Warrior – Qi’s” admiration for you has greatly increased, reaching the level of reverence, you can initiate a recruitment request to him;

System: “Dawn Warrior – Song’s” admiration for you has greatly increased, reaching the level of reverence, you can initiate a recruitment request to him;

System: “Dawn Warrior – Ya’s” admiration for you has greatly increased, reaching the level of reverence, you can initiate a recruitment request to him;

A series of system prompts suddenly made Song Jian feel like he was hit by a pie. He had recruited these three Dawn Warriors through his worshipful relationship with the Silver Moon Commerce, regardless of whether he could clear this instance, they needed to be returned in the end;

But now there was an opportunity to recruit these three level twenty elite warriors to be his followers right before his eyes. What should Song Jian do?

What else could he do but recruit!

Recruit, recruit, recruit!

With twenty years of single and quick hand speed, Song Jian rapidly chose to recruit the three;

Respected Knight of Dawn, I’m willing to become one of your followers!” A Dawn Warrior knelt on one knee, giving a salute towards the direction where Song Jian was located;

System: Congratulations, you have recruited “Dawn Warrior – Ya” as your follower;

However, the remaining two Dawn Warriors hesitated and eventually rejected the recruitment;

I m sorry, my lord, I have my own duties and cannot follow behind you!”

“I’m sorry, my lord, I still have things I care about in the Silver Moon Commerce, and I can’t leave!”

The two followers showed their remorse, shaking their heads as they rejected the offer.

“Continue the attack!” After Song Jian issued the order, he couldn’t help but lift the corners of his mouth. Even if only one Dawn Warrior was willing to follow him, he had struck it rich! This was a level twenty elite follower, entirely different from ordinary NPCs!
