Chapter 590: Quasi-Boss with the Force
“Bang!”
“-12750!”
Golden Critical Hit.
Feng Luo’s third shot hit the Quasi-Boss monster that had just lost more than 20% HP from a round of focus fire attack again.
This time, Wings of Death’s destructive coefficient that exceeded B-Grade completely and broke through the hard keratin scale defense of the Hypertoxic Chameleon Quasi-Boss. Additionally, it also triggered the rare attribute’s critical rate and directly dealt a five-digit damage value.
Since many players were attacking at the same time, the colors appearing within the sniping scope’s sight was quite chaotic.
However, the mark that appeared after the target was locked on would automatically change into a color that was the most identifiable. Feng Luo only needed to aim and attack the mark. As long as he could keep up, he did not have to worry about missing the target.
“Tsst!”
After the round of focus fire by the other players, the Quasi-Boss now received another attack by Feng Luo that took out more than 10,000 of its HP. With this, its HP was decreasing quickly and substantially.
Since it kept getting hit, it was not able to completely regain its camouflage and stealth status.
Since its small body that was only one foot long and was very light, it could withstand the impact generated by the bullets and the effects of skills. The attacks sent it rolling around on the ground.
HP: 72%… 61%… 49%…
“Although this Quasi-Boss has some very weird and scary skills, its defense is quite average. If we keep this up, we’ll kill it in no time…” After seeing the Level 70 Quasi-Boss’ HP drop below 50% in just a few seconds, many players who turned around to attack it breathed a sigh of relief.
Several Chameleons had broken through the outer defense layer that weakened after many of the damage dealers left, which left the warrior professions without any damage output.
If they did not get rid of the Quasi-Boss monster quickly, they would be stuck in a predicament where dangers lay internally and externally.
However, as a Level 70 Quasi-Boss monster, it was clear that it was not going to give up just like that.
The highest leveled monster found by players in the game was only a little over Level 70. Theoretically speaking, apart from the fact that it was a Quasi-Boss monster, the Hypertoxic Chameleon was among the top echelons in the monster world on the planet in War.
“Hiss!”
The Hypertoxic Chameleon that was sent rolling on the ground and could no longer escape only had around 30% of its HP left let out an angry and high-pitched hiss.
A shocking scene unfolded before everyone’s eyes, as more than ten of the long-range attacks flying towards it including fireb.a.l.l.s, wind blades, ice arrows, and hundreds of bullets suddenly stopped in mid-air as if something had frozen them in place.
However, to say that they were frozen in mid-air was not completely accurate. The skills and the bullets were still moving closer towards the Hypertoxi Chameleon.
However, the speed at which they were progressing had substantially decreased. The hundreds of bullets were flying towards it at all angles were slowed almost a thousand times. It was as if the bullets were shot into mercury and they were faced with incredible resistance.
“What the f*ck?” Several players frowned at the sudden and unforeseen event, especially when they were just one step away from killing this Quasi-Boss, which would allow them to turn around to deal with the horde of Hypertoxic Chameleons charging behind them.
“Energy s.h.i.+eld? Or perhaps it is another energy skill? That’s not right, there hasn’t been any energy fluctuation.” The weirdest thing was that, whether it was the Scout’s recon meter or the Manipulator’s energy converter, none of them received any energy fluctuation notification.
The skill was different from the skills of other normal Boss monsters.
However, Jing Kong, who was surrounded and protected by a group of Heavy Armor Warriors, saw a notification appear on his recon meter. He shouted, “It’s not an energy skill. It is a Force skill… This Quasi-Boss has the Force!”
“Force? Does this Boss monster have the Force? No wonder this skill is so insanely strong.” One could not deny that although most players had heard about the Force before, not many of them had witnessed it first hand.
At that time, the Hyptertoxic Chameleon had simply frozen all the attacks coming towards it within a ten-meter range in mid-air, creating a scene where numerous energy skills of various colors and hundreds of bullets were seemingly blocked by a formless water ball. It was so magnificent that it was comparable to the group of Chameleons being affected by the flame behind them.
It also showed everyone present at the scene the might of the Force.
“Boom!”
However, the players continued to press their attack. In particular, a few Machine Gunners turned around to attack the Quasi-Boss without paying attention to friendly fire.
The water Ball was not able to withstand the attacks that continued to pile up. After a few seconds, all the attacks that were initially frozen in place finally squeezed and burst the water ball. All the attacks continued flying towards the Quasi-Boss.
“Rumble, rumble…”
A bunch of energy skills and hundreds and even thousands of bullets… With so many attacks focused on a location at the same time, a chaotic scene with multiple explosions occurred. It was as if a flash grenade had gone off in front of the players. Blinding lights that made it almost impossible to see affected the players’ vision.
“-43502!”
Amidst the mult.i.tude of explosions, a damage number exceeding 40,000 popped up in the air.
Although it had succeeded in delaying or even disrupting the attacks from earlier, the Level 70 Quasi-Boss was not able to use the Force to completely cancel out the energy of these attacks. As such, it still lost a significant amount of HP in the explosion.
By the time the chaotic explosion dissipated and the stifled players regained their vision, they found that the Quasi-Boss Hypertoxic Chameleon was nowhere to be found in the large crater on the ground created by the explosion.
“s.h.i.+t! It has escaped!” As they continued staring at the attacks that continued to rain down at empty s.p.a.ces on the ground, many players had the same thought.
In addition to the previous focus fire attack as well as the latest explosion, the Hypertoxic Chameleon had less than 10% of its total 250,000 HP left. With the AI of Boss monsters in War, its first instinct under such low-HP condition would be to escape.
“Over there! It is running towards the Chameleon horde!” Jing Kong shouted as he pointed to a location with his recon meter in hand.
However, in that direction was the place where a horde of Chameleons that looked like a burning flame breaking through the defensive line of the warrior players. It made the entire battlefield extremely chaotic.
In that situation, even if they were to find the escaping Quasi-Boss, the Scouts and Manipulators would find it difficult to attack because of the high chance for them to kill their teammates if they were to release their skills or fire their bullets over there.
That was unless it was a single-target attack.
“Bang!”
The low rumbling of the Wings of Death once again filled the air.
A searing hot bullet flew towards a very inconspicuous spot amid the chaotic battle between the Hypertoxic Chameleons and the players.
After flying past around a hundred meters and through the gaps between a few players, the bullet struck something in the air, and it burst into a flame that spread outward.
“-22566!”
A magnificent gold number.
As if it was compensating for Feng Luo’s bad luck in his earlier shots that missed the Quasi-Boss Cave Spider, the two consecutive shots that were aimed at the Hypertoxic Chameleon were both critical hits.
Moreover, the latest shot was a critical hit on top of a Fatal Damage.
Golden colored damage number that was over 20,000. The shot directly emptied the HP of the Level 70 Quasi-Boss trying to escape and receive help from its minions.
