Chapter 70 - Frost Worm King

This sudden change frightened the two of them so much that they couldn’t care less about continuing to argue. They played around and hurriedly got up to take out their brand new Frost Armor Shields to hide in a corner without falling.

They took out their weapon and looked around warily to prevent wild monsters from ambushing them. After less than two minutes, the entire underground karst cave suddenly stopped trembling. As the last fluorite landed with a crisp sound, the entire underground karst cave fell into a dead silence.

Although the entire underground karst cave was so quiet that there was no sound, Lin Shuang’s sixth sense told him that there was an unknown danger hiding in the dark. The moment they let down their guard, it would suddenly rush out from somewhere and capture the two of them.

“Lin Shuang, my Archer profession has a sixth sense that tells me that there’s a very powerful wild monster wandering not far from us, ready to attack at any time.”

After Qian Shanxue gave the warning, Lin Shuang also scanned the entire underground karst cave with a solemn expression.

“I feel the same way as you. Now, neither of us should act rashly. We have to calm down and wait for the other party to appear before counterattacking. Now is the time to compete in patience. That side will be discouraged first. Although it won’t necessarily lose, it will definitely be at a disadvantage.”

After Lin Shuang finished speaking, the entire underground karst cave returned to calm. Other than the sound of their breathing, there was no other sound. However, the more this was the case, the more serious the expressions on Lin Shuang and Qian Shanxue’s faces became.

As time passed, the tense atmosphere in the entire underground karst cave did not dissipate. Instead, it became even more solemn.

Lin Shuang and Qian Shanxue, who had maintained their combat posture for nearly half an hour, were already physically and mentally exhausted. However, before the hidden danger appeared, the two of them did not dare to relax at all.

Under this extremely tense atmosphere, another ten minutes passed.

At this moment, Lin Shuang and Qian Shanxue were about to go crazy from this tense atmosphere, so they decided to attack first and let Qian Shanxue attack to see if she could lure the wild monster out.

However, just as the two of them prepared everything, the entire underground karst cave suddenly began to tremble.

With a loud bang, a huge hole suddenly opened in the wall of the underground karst cave facing the two of them. A huge worm that was at least three meters long and three meters wide quickly crawled out and attacked the two of them.

Fortunately, the two of them had never let down their guard. The moment the giant worm attacked, they left their spot and dodged the giant worm’s surprise attack.

Before the two of them could stand still, the giant worm attacked them again. Countless sharp ice crystals sprayed out of the huge mouth of the abyss at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye.

This time, Lin Shuang and Qian Shanxue did not dodge the ice crystal attack of the giant worm. The speed at which the ice crystals flew was no longer something the two of them could capture with their naked eyes. The moment the ice crystals flew out, they were about to touch them.

Fortunately, both of them had no less than two Frost Armor Shields. Therefore, after the ice crystal attack, other than the ground under their feet being cut into nothingness by the ice crystals, the two of them were not injured. After the ice crystal attack, the giant worm crawled out of the hole, exposing itself to them.

[Frost Worm King (Orange Boss)]

[Level: 25]

[Health: 600,000]

[Attack: 1,000]

[Defense: 2,000]

[Strength: 1,500]

[Skills: Frost Poison Spray, Ice Armor, Thousands of Ice Crystals, Death Crush, Summoning Larva]

[Introduction: The overlord of the Ice Mine feeds on extremely cold crystals. Its body contains terrifying frost poison. Once one is infected by the frost poison it shoots out, one will definitely turn into an ice sculpture in three seconds. Its life force and defense value are terrifying.]

Looking at the terrifying health and defense of the Frost Worm King, Lin Shuang’s pupils instantly constricted as they looked at the Frost Worm King’s attribute interface in disbelief. Such terrifying defense was several times stronger than the Purple Electric Vampire Bat King that the system had determined to have extremely high defense.

Was a dungeon guarded by a Boss of this level really something a human could pass? Although the two of them were complaining crazily in their hearts that the Frost Worm King was abnormal, the two of them had no choice but to shoot.

They had already come this far. The effort they had spent could not be wasted. Even if they could not defeat it, it was better to shatter a few teeth of the Frost Worm King!

Then, the two of them tacitly followed the original method without saying anything.

Lin Shuang had high attack, high defense, and high HP. With his agile movement technique, he attracted the Frost Worm King’s firepower head-on. Qian Shanxue still flew into the sky with her Frost Wings and attacked the Frost Worm King from above.

This time, the two of them focused on staying alive. They relied on the agility that the Frost Worm King did not have and used the tactic of kiting to slowly wear it down.

Lin Shuang picked up the Sword of God and jumped onto the back of the Frost Worm King. He was prepared to rely on his agility to show off the movement techniques of an assassin warrior. However, just as Lin Shuang jumped onto the back of the Frost Worm King, he suddenly smelled an extremely thick sour smell.

At the same time, he had a bad feeling and quickly lowered his head to look down.

There was actually a layer of corrosive mucus on the Frost Worm King’s body, and the concentration was extremely high. He had only stepped on its back for a few seconds when the Purple-grade boots under his feet began to corrode.

This terrifying corrosive effect immediately shocked Lin Shuang. He hurriedly used the Frost Armor Shield to raise a protective barrier that enveloped his entire body, saving his boots. Before he could heave a sigh of relief, Lin Shuang suddenly realized that dozens of Frost Worm larva had suddenly appeared on his back and were spitting corrosive cold poison at him.

This made Lin Shuang immediately not dare to stay on the back of the Frost Worm King. He jumped down from its back and prepared to tangle with it on the ground and let Qian Shanxue attack.

As Lin Shuang began to fight the larva that was summoned by the Frost Worm King on the ground and kept attacking its head with skills to provoke it, Qian Shanxue also began to attack.

With the new Level 16 skill, Explosive Arrow Rain, and the Level 19 skill, Purple Lightning Arrow, she continuously shoots at the huge abyssal mouth that the Frost Worm King would never close, and the two pitch-black eyes the size of millstones.

With the enhancement of her equipment, skill effects, and her own attributes, Qian Shanxue’s basic attack had reached 2,500 points. The lowest skill damage had reached 4,000 points.

With the tacit cooperation of the two of them, they began to lead the Frost Worm King in the wide underground karst cave like a kite and began the difficult path of fighting monsters.
