Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Eating Alone?
Translator: 549690339
The emergence of a level 10 elite BOSS caused a stir among the onlookers. No one had expected the cooperative completion of the main quest to attract a level 10 elite BOSS.
Many players had experienced the strength of a level 10 elite BOSS. A single level one safe-house couldn’t possibly defend against it, let alone a level one manor, unless it possessed formidable defensive measures.
The powerful attacks of the BOSS could easily penetrate the defenses of the safe-house. To prevent this, it had to be vanquished before it got close.
“A level 10 elite BOSS. Just as 1 expected. There are no bugs in this game. If they hadn’t cooperated, it would have been a level 5 elite BOSS at most, definitely not level 10.”
“Yeah, now they’ve shot themselves in the foot. It’s just a matter of how many level 10 BOSSes they can fend off.”
“How many? This ONE is enough for them to choke on! Just wait and see, they’ll definitely fail this time or I’ll eat shit on a live broadcast!”
“Easy on the trash talk, anything can happen in this game…”
While the spectators began to mock and ridicule, Qiang suddenly pulled out a blue scroll from his package, opened it, and tore it fiercely.
A semi-transparent curtain of light appeared in front of Qiang. He waved his hands continuously as if adjusting something or writing something into the light.
Quickly, all players in the whole area received a system notification at the same time;
System: An anonymous player has issued a kill order to all players within a kilometer radius. Your task is to kill the “Spiky Zombie Kuka” (Elite) of LV10 and obtain its skull: 0/1. Reward: 5000 Doomsday Coins! Everyone in the area is automatically given this task. There will be no penalties for task failure.
The spectators around the area stiffened. They looked at each other, seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.
“How did he post a mission? 1 can’t do that.”
“Are you blind? Didn’t you see him using a scroll? It’s probably a task posting scroll. How can you post a task without it?”
“5000 Doomsday Coins, that’s a lot of money…”
“Is the guy who said he would eat shit on live broadcast still around? Are you freaking out now?”
The spectators began to get excited. To them, 5000 Doomsday Coins was a huge sum of money. However, hunting down a level 10 elite BOSS in a sea of monsters was no easy task.
“When the time comes, one only needs to inflict some damage on the BOSS to be eligible to pick up the loot. The main focus should be snatching the BOSS’S head at the end.” Almost all players thought the same. They set their sights on the level 10 elite BOSS, expecting someone to take the first move. The player to first attack the BOSS would bear the brunt of its hatred. Despite having its abilities halved, a level 10 elite BOSS was no joke.
Seeing the players around him, Song Jian immediately pulled out the rocket launcher, aimed at the level 10 elite BOSS, and pulled the trigger.
Whoosh-
A rocket trailing a long flame flew towards the “Spiky Zombie”. The BOSS seemed to sense the danger and turned its head towards the rocket, letting out a roar. Two spikes came out of its elbows, which it threw at the incoming rocket.
Inner Eye!
A glint flashed in Song Jian’s eyes. Suddenly, the rocket slightly curved in the air, avoiding the two spikes.
By the time the “Spiky Zombie” tried to dodge, it was too late. Because the modified rocket had a 25% increase in flight speed and was locked onto the target by the Inner Eye skill, the “Spiky Zombie” could only brace for the hit.
Boom!
Amidst the explosion, the “Spiky Zombie” let out a screech. Its menacing bloody eyes stared at Song Jian. Holding two foot-long spikes in its hands, it charged towards Song Jian.
All the monsters in its path were torn to pieces by the “Spiky Zombie”. The monster hopped and spun with the two spikes in its hands as it raced towards Song Jian. Its spikes were like the death god’s scythes, reaping the lives of any monster that dared to stand in its way.
“It’s coming, it’s coming, get ready, get ready!” The surrounding players were yelling and swiftly retreated. Within a short period, there was no one within a ten-meter radius of Song Jian.
The other players also raised their ranged weapons, aiming at the level 10 elite BOSS. As soon as it was within range, they would attack without hesitation.
“Hey, this guy is quite daring. Now the BOSS’S hatred is firmly on him. We don’t have to worry about drawing the BOSS’S attention anymore.” A player glanced at Song Jian and murmured.
“There are still good people around! Hehe, it’s a windfall. The BOSS’S head is mine!”
“Back off! The BOSS’S head is mine. As soon as it gets three meters closer, it’s within my attack range!”
Just at this moment, Song Jian pulled the trigger of the rocket launcher towards the BOSS yet again.
Boom-
This attack had a critical hit, a nearly 200-point critical hit, above the head of the BOSS. The explosion wiped out a large number of surrounding monsters, leaving the BOSS in the midst of a 3-meter radius cleared area; not a single small monster survived.
At this point, the BOSS’S health points dropped by one-third, leaving it with less than 800 points. Song Jian reloaded the rocket launcher. A silver vertical scar slowly opened on his forehead, and a silver beam shot out towards the BOSS.
Boom Boom Boom Boom-
A series of damage indicators sprang from the head of the BOSS. The CS couldn’t maintain its balance and was pushed backwards by the silver beam. The surface of its body looked like it had been doused with sulfuric acid.
After equipping the rocket launcher, Song Jian’s physical attack has massively increased. This resulted in the enhancement of his Vertical Pupil skill “Eye Killer”. The skill was dealing over a hundred points of mixed damage to the BOSS per second.
Even more irritating was the fact that the silver beam from the “Eye Killer” pushed the BOSS back into the horde of monsters.
After five seconds, a look of fatigue crept onto Song Jian’s face, but the BOSS’S vitality had been depleted down to just over 200 points.
As everyone watched in shock, Song Jian jumped off the roof and charged towards the “Spiky Zombie BOSS”.
“Holy shit, this guy wants to hog all the kill points. Everyone, get him!”
“Snatch the BOSS, snatch the kill! Who is this guy? His damage output is too high. One round and he almost took out the level 10 elite BOSS. Terrifying!”
The spectators started panicking. They hadn’t even touched the BOSS yet and it was about to die? This can’t be happening!
Instantly, the spectators broke through the monster horde and charged towards the “Spiky Zombie BOSS”.
“Just let me touch it once, let me touch it!” All the players had bloodshot eyes. They held their ranged weapons tightly, shooting in the direction of the “Spiky Zombie” after rushing into the horde of monsters. Even if they weren’t in effective range, as long as a stray bullet hit the BOSS, they would be eligible to pick up the loot.
Some brave players even aimed directly at Song Jian’s back. If Song Jian died, wouldn’t all the loot from the BOSS become unclaimed property?
