Wan Er’s eyes stared at the skill while her giant umbrella abruptly opened to take the attack and as a result began to shake uncontrollably. With a “Peng” Wan Er and her umbrella tumbled away while a number floated above Wan Er –
“1102!”
Slightly embarrassed, she said, “The umbrella has a high defensive capability but it wasn’t able to withstand the entire force of an attack. Looks like tanking is still the job of fighting classes…”
Yuzi Chengshuo snapped, “Don’t joke around like that Wan Er, I nearly had my heart stop after seeing that…”
Wan Er gave a sheepish laugh. “Ah, don’t worry too much!”
……
Not too far away, Matcha stood there quietly, “Boss, [Whirlwind Slash] can only be cast every 17.5 seconds. Cang Tong can resume attacking as usual and I’ll notify you to retreat 3 seconds before [Whirlwind Slash] comes back.”
Wan Er looked a bit surprised, “The people you recruit…they’re not exactly your average players are they?”
I gave a big smile and nodded, “Of course, Zhan Long members are all talented!”
“Bang!”
A gunshot rang as a bullet was clearly visible in the middle of Emperor Li Xiong’s face. As he angrily slashed out with his axe at me, Wan Er laughed out loud, “I didn’t think that we’d have a Musketeer with us…”
Fox’s face looked helpless, “I didn’t want to attract the boss’ aggro or get the last hit…”
Dong Cheng chuckled, “Don’t worry about that brother Fox. Seeing your damage, it’d be impossible to get a last hit…”
Fox’s face went green, “Boss, why is it that the women by your side seem to love ridiculing us?”
I shrugged, “Get used to it…, Cang Lei, Old K, finish the secondary boss quickly!”
“Okay!”
After what had been a few minutes, the secondary boss howled in pain as it crashed to the ground. Dong Cheng Lei stood besides the dead body of the secondary boss and laughed, “Brother Xiao Yao, the General dropped a Gold Tiered Ring, +29 attack, +30 Agility, but with a level requirement of 49. Who wants it?”
“Give it to Wolf, Wan Er’s Swift Dragon Ring is better than this one, no point giving her a subpar ring…”
Wan Er laughed, “Yea, I wouldn’t want it, I’d only want a ring that’s at least a Purple Tier~”
“Well then, I hope that our next few items will be Purple Tier, Emperor Li Xiong better not disappoint…” I commented.
“Dont jinx it…”
“Say that after you kill him!”
“Alright, alright.”
……
After 7 minute of hard battling, I had been hit by [Whirlwind Slash] countless times and it was only thanks to Yuzi Chengshuo and Darling Duck’s great healing capabilities that I had managed to stay alive. No one had thought a Lv 57 Purple Tier boss would be this tough.
“This boss is too tough, even tougher than the normal Purple Tiered bosses!” Yuzi Chengshuo said.
Wan Er chuckled lightheartedly, “The difficulty should correspond to the maps and missions. An SS ranked mission should have bosses that have quite a bit of hidden stats. By the way, this was only the first layer so the next four layers will definitely give us a harder time.”
Old K was surprised, “Oh beautiful Cang Tong, how do you know this tomb has 5 layers?”
Blinking her eyes, Wan Er answered, “Well, the first layer has the boss Emperor Li Xiong of the Di tribe and
protected by the Di Knife Soldiers, so this layer represents the Di Tribe’s territory. It’s only natural to assume that the next layer will be another of the Five Barbarian Tribes—Di, Qiang, Huns, Xianbei, and Jie…”
Old K shivered from her knowledge and whispering to me, he said, “Li Xiao Yao, this chick knows stuff. Ah, a woman that reads is said to have a heart of ink and won’t be easy to pick up…”
My mouth twitched, “Don’t say that…”
Wan Er stunned the main boss before saying, “Old K, Let’s go back to the outskirts of Ba Huang City!”
“Why?”
“A battle to the death!”
“NOOO…”
……
By the time the chatter had settled down, the blood of the BOSS had dropped to a low percentage. Although it had originally 250,000 health, it couldn’t withstand our collective strength and merciless bombardments. Dong Cheng Yue’s pretty face lit up with excitement, “Waah, do you think there will be a Purple Tiered item in here? Xiao Yao’s charm is high, so there has to be at least one! I want a Purple Tiered staff with 2000 magical attack!”
I was dumbfounded by her, “2000 magical attack? You’re talking about a Lv 100 Emperor Tiered staff…”
Before I finished my sentence, I sent a [Wind Blade], and it crashed into the BOSS while a cyan colored light flashed from the sky, it was a fatal strike!
2471!
……
“Ah, ow…”
Emperor Li Xiong of the Di Tribe suddenly fell down the ground onto his knees while his battle-axe dropped next to his body. His half-rotten face was full of horror as he realized his impending fate, “I…I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die….”
I stepped in front of him and pushed my Dawn Boots onto his corpse, “You were already dead from the start…”
