"The system has this rule?" Fearless asked strangely.
"No…" Sanguine Wall shook his head and said, "According to the its usual practice, it shouldn't be like this, right?"
"Keke!" When the members of Quan Zhen Sect heard this, they all laughed and looked at the confused Sanguine Wall.
An expert from a big guild like the Sanguine Alliance was actually left stumped to such a degree. This game definitely followed a fixed set of rules, there was no excdption.
"If you talk about the system's usual practice, then you lose!" Fearless laughed and said.
"What do you mean?" Sanguine Wall wasn't the only one that was confused. Even Little One looked at Fearless blankly.
Before Fearless could reply, a crossbow arrow suddenly came from some unknown direction and it directly landed on Priest Sanguine Medicine's forehead. Before Sanguine Medicine could say anything, he was turned into white light.
"F*ck, the BOSS is nearby and it is even an elite BOSS!" When they saw this, the entire party could not help but cry out in alarm.
An ordinary BOSS's attack target would be the first person that entered its aggro zone. On the other hand, an elite BOSS's first target would be the cloth-armoured jobs like Priests and Magicians that could be easily killed. Just now, when they entered this area, it was Crotch Lord and Sanguine Wall that were at the very front. Thus, it could be seen that this BOSS wasn't an ordinary one.
"Where did the arrow come from?" The members of Quan Zhen Sect turned to look at Wang Yu.
After killing its target, the arrow would disappear along with its target… Thus, everyone couldn't judge where the arrow came from and they could only ask Wang Yu who had an inbuilt instinct system.
"I'm not sure... " Wang Yu shook his head repeatedly. "That BOSS didn't target me, so I wasn't able to feel it."
"Then Fearless, Ming Du and Explosion need to be careful! The next target is likely to be us…" Spring Halo reminded Fearless.
There were a total of five cloth-armoured jobs. Now that Sanguine Medicine was dead, the BOSS target had an 80% chance of being dire ted to the remaining four people.
"I understand!" After Spring Halo's reminder, Fearless casually casted a Bloody Barrier on his own head.
Ming Du, on the other hand, ran towards Wang Yu. Ming Du was always good at protecting his own hide. He naturally knew which side was the safest.
Spring Halo directed six demons to defend Sanguine Explosion and himself. Afterwards, he squated on the floor, matching his vulgar character.
The BOSS could clearly recognise the Bloody Barrier Skill. At the same time, Spring Halo and Sanguine Explosion were both being blocked. Thus, its second attack was directed at Ming Du.
"Old Li, be careful!"
Just at the moment, Wang Yu, who was standing beside Ming Du, could sense that killing intent. He fiercely pulled Ming Du towards the side.
"Biu!"
Just as Ming Du was pulled away, a crossbow arrow landed beside his feet… The colour drained out of Ming Du'smface. If he was just a bit slower, his head would have already been exploded by the BOSS's arrow.
And at this time, everyone could roughly guess the BOSS's location from the arrow - the BOSS was above them!
"Guardians, raise your shield! Everyone, close up towards me!" With Fearless's order, Sanguine Wall and Crotch Lord raised the giant shields in their hands. At the same time, Fearless hugged his head and rolled under the shielf.
After everyone closed up towards Fearless, he threw out a Fantasy Serpent.
The little thing slithered around the party and a Star of David rose, enveloping the entire party.
"What's this?"
Little One, who had never seen a fantasy array, asked in wonderment.
Fearless, "It's a skill that can conceal us! In here, the BOSS wouldn't be able see us!"
Wang Yu frowned and asked, "Won't this plaything be seen through if there's a level difference of 5 or more?"
"As long as he doesn't get within 5 meters of us, it wouldn't be seen through…" Fearless responded.
"Oh…" Wang Yu nodded.
At the same time, Fearless spoke in the Quan Zhen Sect guild chat, "I'm actually not sure if a BOSS that is many levels higher than us is able to see through the array. Let's hide deeper under the shields…"
The experts of Quan Zhen Sect chuckled, "Hehe, that's my Fearless. To betray your party mates at such a time… I like it…"
Wang Yu, "..."
From the looks of it, the BOSS on top of the tree didn't have the ability to see through the array. Roughly two to three minutes passed but there wasn't another attack.
Time continued to pass. The BOSS didn't panic but the people below did.
"Honestly, is this BOSS waiting for us to reveal ourselves?" The impatient Vainglory asked. Vainglory was still immature so he was the most impatient one.
Little One: "For a person that hunts to survive, patience is the most important weapon… If we don't go out, he would probably continue to wait."
"..."
When they heard this, everyone broke out in cold sweat.
A BOSS was merely a compilation of code. It didn't need to eat, drink, or buy the time card… Who could afford to compete with this BOSS in terms of time? Everyone could not help but think whether this was the game company's evil method of selling time cards.
"Then what do we do?" Everyone turned and asked Fearless.
Fearless contemplated and said, "Waiting here to die isn't the solution. We should charge out and attack actively!"
"Pui! Stop talking nonsense!" Everyone said with disdain, "One of us is already dead but we still don't know what the BOSS looks like. How do we attack actively?"
"The BOSS is up there. We need to find a way to get him down!" Fearless said.
"Get him down?" Everyone turned towards Yang Nuo and Little One…
The range of an archer was the farthest. The people that could shoot a person off the top of a tree were these two.
Little One hurriedly shook his hand, "Don't look at me… I'm a Survivor that plays with traps. I'm not capable enough to shoot anything.
"Cheh!" Everyone uttered in contempt, then turned to look at Yang Nuo.
Yang Nuo lifted her head and calculated the distance between them and the top of the three. Afterwhich, she also shook her head and said, "I'm also not able to reach it…"
This tree was very tall. It was at least 30 meters. Yang Nuo's hidden job was Demon Hunter and one of her skill with the farthest range, "Eagle Soars In The Sky", only had a range of 20 meters. Moreover, Yang Nuo didn't even have a target and she could only shoot blind. Even if her range was enough, she was fighting in the open while her opponent was in the dark. The person to get killed first was likely to be her.
"Damn it…" Seeing that Yang Nuo was also unable to do it, Fearless started to bite his fingernails.
Ming Du came out with a bad idea, "Why don't we form a ladder out of people?"
"Nonsense…" The party directly rejected that idea. He wanted to play with a human pyramid in front of the BOSS? Did he want to entertain the BOSS before he died? That would be too shameless…
However, Ming Du's words reminded the usually silent Darknorth Fisher of something.
Darknorth Fisher asked Wang Yu, "Brother Bull, don't you know martial arts? Do you know the Leap of the Clouds?"
Wang Yu jolted, "Leap of the Clouds? What's that?"
"That's a kind of qinggong where your right leg steps on your left leg…" Darknorth Fisher's two hands started to animate the moves.
Wrinkles appeared on Wang Yu's forehead, "Where did you learn such things from…"
