[Decayed Soul Hooker (Silver Level BOSS): LV9]
[Corrosive Slime: Secretes a large amount of slime onto the ground, covering a range of 4 meters. The slime deals 300 poison damage per second and slows by 30%. Lasts for 30 seconds.]
[Flying Scythe Hook: When Health Points drop by 10% or the aggro target is more than 5 meters away, throws a chain scythe rapidly, pulling the target back in front. Deals 200% damage to the target and stuns for 3 seconds. If the target dies, Flying Scythe Hook refreshes.]
"It's a Silver Level BOSS!"
Qing Ying exclaimed, seeing Jiang Chen's eyes burning with excitement as he stared intently at the BOSS. "Brother Mortal World, are you going to fight it?"
"How can we fight this?"
Tao Xiaoyao asked incredulously.
In her view, this BOSS was impossible to defeat without strong player equipment.
Undoubtedly, this was not a BOSS that players could handle at this stage.
Just the Corrosive Slime alone was enough to incapacitate any melee fighters due to its damage.
And with the Flying Scythe Hook, any target more than 5 meters away would be pulled in.
Even if you stayed at the 4-5 meter range to attack, once the BOSS's health dropped by 10%, you'd still get hooked.
Once hooked, it was basically instant death.
Then the Flying Scythe Hook would refresh...
This skill combination made it nearly impossible to kill the BOSS, even with a large number of players.
Yet, Jiang Chen still walked towards the BOSS.
"Are you really going to fight it?"
Seeing Jiang Chen's determination, Qing Ying thought for a moment, and a light flashed in her eyes.
Could the Flying Scythe Hook be blocked with a shield like last time?
Thinking of this, Qing Ying quickly asked, "Brother Mortal World, do you need my help? I can use Shield Block!"
"No need."
If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
Jiang Chen shook his head, knowing what Qing Ying was thinking. "A knight's Shield Block only immunizes damage, not control. You'd still get hooked."
"Then what do we do?"
Qing Ying asked just as Jiang Chen reached the BOSS, maintaining a 5-meter distance, and cast a Healing Spell.
Simultaneously, a Healing Ray connected to the BOSS.
-240
-210
...
Damage numbers floated above the BOSS's head, but its health bar didn't seem to move.
"Roar!"
Standing still, the BOSS quickly secreted a large amount of black slime, covering the 4-meter area around it in just a few seconds.
At the same time, the BOSS swung its chain scythe.
Whoosh!
The chain scythe, accompanied by the sound of wind, swiftly swept towards Jiang Chen.
This was its normal attack.
Attack range: 5 meters!
But Jiang Chen anticipated it and easily dodged with a sidestep.
Then, he cast another Healing Spell.
With the continuous damage from the Healing Ray.
In 10 seconds.
The BOSS lost about 2000 Health Points.
At this point, its health bar showed: Health remaining 99%.
This indicated its total Health Points were no less than 200,000.
Jiang Chen continued his operations.
Casting spells, maintaining distance, dodging normal attacks.
The BOSS's normal attacks couldn't touch him.
"Every time I see his skills, I'm amazed!"
Tao Xiaoyao exclaimed, but she was also worried. "He can dodge normal attacks, but what about the Flying Scythe Hook?"
A minute and a half later.
The Decayed Soul Hooker had lost 10% of its Health Points.
It raised its chain scythe, swirling it in the air, gathering purple-black energy.
The Flying Scythe Hook was coming!
At this moment, Qing Ying and Tao Xiaoyao both widened their eyes, filled with worry and tension.
The BOSS suddenly threw the chain scythe.
Under the pull of the chain, the scythe, glowing with purple-black light, instantly reached Jiang Chen.
The speed was too fast to dodge.
That's why the skill description used the word "rapid."
Just as the scythe was about to touch Jiang Chen.
A glowing crescent-shaped blue rune appeared on Jiang Chen's forehead.
In an instant, he disappeared.
Leaving only a crescent-shaped blue light shadow.
The chain scythe missed!
Simultaneously, Jiang Chen reappeared 5 meters away from the BOSS.
"Blink!"
Seeing this, Qing Ying and Tao Xiaoyao both exclaimed in shock.
They also saw the crescent-shaped rune.
Guessing that Jiang Chen's Blink skill was related to the Fantasy Fairy.
Indeed, Jiang Chen used the Fantasy Fairy's talent skill, Blink!
This was why he dared to challenge the BOSS.
More importantly.
His skills could ignore defense.
Otherwise, with his current attributes, he wouldn't even be able to break through the defense, let alone fight.
All these factors allowed Jiang Chen to tackle this BOSS.
However, Blink had a cooldown of two and a half minutes.
Jiang Chen needed to control the BOSS's health, ensuring it didn't drop too quickly, causing the skill to trigger too often.
Otherwise, his Blink wouldn't be enough.
Of course, this was simple for Jiang Chen.
It just required more time.
Thus, Jiang Chen began the "long" journey of fighting the BOSS...
After twenty-five minutes of high-intensity, flawless operation.
The Decayed Soul Hooker finally hit zero Health Points.
Falling to the ground.
"So strong!"
Tao Xiaoyao couldn't help but praise.
She was exhausted just from watching, while Jiang Chen had been meticulously operating the entire time.
Such perseverance was not something an ordinary person could achieve.
"Brother Mortal World, you're amazing!"
Qing Ying also shouted excitedly.
Jiang Chen's face remained calm.
He didn't think it was impressive at all; this was just the most common BOSS in [Gods].
In terms of difficulty, this was novice level to Jiang Chen.
[You have killed the wild boss: Decayed Soul Hooker (Silver Level), achieving the first kill.]
[Your level has increased to: Level 9.]
[Your Four Attributes +1 point, and you have gained 4 free attribute points.]
[Current Intimacy with Qing Ying: 293/]
[Current Intimacy with Tao Xiaoyao: 225/]
Killing a Silver Level boss increased Intimacy by 50 points!
Jiang Chen also leveled up to 9.
He allocated all free attribute points to Intelligence.
Constitution: 18 (↑1)
Strength: 18 (↑1)
Agility: 18 (↑1)
Intelligence: 65 (↑5)
Killing the Silver Level BOSS gave the three of them a huge amount of experience.
Not only did Jiang Chen level up.
Tao Xiaoyao and Qing Ying also leveled up to 7 and 8 respectively!
Ignoring the two girls' shock and joy at leveling up twice.
Jiang Chen quickly picked up the BOSS's loot.
