TL: I’ll try to get the next chap out but don’t count on it :(
“Keng!”
The long blade strikes my Dawn Chestplate, leaving behind a dent and forcing me to fall back a few meters. My Silver Locked Battle Boots fiercely slide to a stop against the grassy plain. Using both of my legs to send force towards my sword-hand, I activate [Strength of a Thousand Men] and attack the General of the Everlasting Wind’s forehead.
“Keng! Keng! Keng!”
A string of damage numbers fly out.
Behind me, Simple leads the group of archers and musketeers to attack the boss using long range attacks. The Boss’s health drops quickly; a meager 17% remains after 10 minutes of battle, even though the durability of my items are falling down at an astonishing rate; my Dawn Chestplate already lost 74% of its durability. But, I would’ve already paid the Grim Reaper a visit if not for the 9 healers continuously healing me.
…….
Jian Feng Han stands behind the fight as steady as a mountain, the corner of his mouth slightly raised and with his hand firmly grasping his sword, he smiles: “As expected, it was a good call for Xiao Yao Zi Zai to be the tank, over 97% of the Boss’s aggro has been on him. He has surprisingly high defense even though he belongs to the swordsman class, so his equipment is not bad at all; he can even hold his own against a Level 55 Purple Rank
Boss’s attacks.
Fushen Moren stands beside Feng Han while carrying the Broken Army Shield, his eyebrows tense up: “Apparently, I, [Vanguard]’s number 1 tank am not of any use right now. Guild Master, if the Boss drops gold equipment, will you actually give it to Xiao Yao Zi Zai, even though our [Vanguard] provided the potions and healers? The equipment should be rolled to a more deserving person ……”
Jian Feng Han smiles slightly: “No, look at it in the long term, 1 or 2 pieces of equipment aren’t anything. If [Vanguard] wishes to sit at the top of Ba Huang City, then we must recruit many talented players. This is the first cooperation between Xiao Yao Zi Zai, the General Family, and us. After this, we should be somewhat familiar with each other, and then we can possibly recruit them to join [Vanguard]. Ahh, these fellows have talent but each and every one of them is not easy to deal with. It requires patience to subdue them……”
Fushen Moren nods: “Ahh, hopefully this Boss will drop a Guild Creation Tablet. Hehe, once we get the Guild Creation Tablet, we’d be a huge step closer to becoming Ba Huang City’s number 1 Guild…”
Simple waves her staff while shouting loudly: “Xiao Yao, pay attention to your mana, without your [Heal] you won’t be able to control aggro…..”
I take a quick look at my mana and immediately take out a Chilling Wind Pill to refill it: “Relax, my mana is sufficient, I’m using Level 1 [Wind Blades] and [Fierce Ice Blades], so they only need to consume a little mana, my main mana consumption is [Heal].”
“Ahh, hehe, smart guy!”
“Thanks!”
……
Countless Ice Cones go straight at the Boss’s chest creating different explosions. General of the Everlasting Wind’s health is dropping steadily and he howls and brandishes his blade randomly. But against me, he has no chance.
General Li Mu rubs his hands together and says excitedly: “Hehe, the first Purple Rank Boss will soon be overthrown, and I’m here to witness the historic moment. What will it drop?”
Wang Jian replies: “I don’t know but I hope it is a golden axe. Bai Qi has been wielding a bronze axe for a long time and it’s embarrassing for us.”
“If a chestplate drops, does Xiao Yao Zi Zai get it?” General Bai Qi asks.
I use [Wind Blade] and take the time to reply: “No, if a chestplate drops, we will roll for it. If a sword drops, it’s mine.”
“Alright, such a nice person…..” Ba Qi says with chuckle.
….
Suddenly, the General of the Everlasting Wind lets out a huge roar. He kneels to the ground and pounds the ground with his left land, angrily shouting: “Spirits from hell, heed my cry, come to me! Let us destroy these enemies in front of us! Let us show them that the General of the Everlasting Wind is indestructible!”
The earth trembles as many dark shadows rise. They fly around the general as he absorbs them into his body; it looks just like black magic.
“Finish him, the boss is evolving!?” Jian Feng Han grips his sword and shouts: ”Xiao Yao, be careful! Do not get killed!”
I clench my teeth and say: “Don’t worry, I will not die so easily!”
Ding!
System Notification: Please note that the [General of the Everlasting Wind] successfully absorbed nearby souls. The General is now a Level 60 Purple Boss, his attack power increases by 10% and his HP recovers by 15%!
Damn, his health has recovered!
I raise my head and see the Boss’s blade coming down on me!
“1198!”
That really hurts! It feels like I almost died!
I swing my Jade City Sword and stab the Boss’s body with [Fierce Ice Blade]. A huge damage number of 1344 appears. In addition, Darling Duck quickly uses her [Heal] and I recover another 870 HP and I’m almost at full health!
The pressure on the healers and me is huge. All of the attacks of the Boss are biting into me. I would rather die than keep fighting this Boss. Now I truly understand the pains of a Main Tank. A good Main Tanks resists violent strikes and feels the pains of weapons cutting into his flesh, and I’m starting to walk down that path….
….
“Full power! No mercy!” Jian Feng Han pulls out his sword. With a burning passion in his eyes, he shouts: “As long as
we kill it within the next 3 minutes, we will be the first players to have killed a Purple Rank Boss. No more going in as groups! All together now! Full power! Everyone join in!”
“Ok….”
My heart leaps in surprise. I quickly shout: “Jian Feng Han, calm down. Think rationally, don’t be impulsive…”
Jian Feng Han replies: “Don’t worry!”
As a result, berserkers, swordsmen, assassins flood over to the boss. Soon, I was fighting side by side with them and we were producing an amazing amount of damage!
“Go to hell!”
The General of Everlasting Wind raises his sword and swings it down into the large group. I suffer huge blow and my HP drops by 1100+. Several berserkers and assassins fall to the ground and die immediately!
I reach behind me and grab a health pot. I quickly shout into my party channel: “Darling Duck, focus on healing me and don’t pay attention to the others!”
