Based on the summary, the Viper General was a warrior type boss, and its skills made w.a.n.g Yu quite relieved as there were none of the poison attacks that were the specialty of snake type monsters, hence it should be relatively easier to deal with.
Yet Sanguine Warflag stared at it with trepidation and said: "This boss is not easy to deal with!"
"It looks rather noob though?" w.a.n.g Yu subconsciously blurted out.
"Looks rather noob?" The members of Sanguine Alliance exclaimed. "It"s G.o.d Iron Bull after all. Even bosses aren"t anything to him."
Sanguine Warflag quickly added on: "Brother Bull, don"t underestimate this boss. Its attacks deal true damage, so tanks basically can"t endure them!"
w.a.n.g Yu chuckled as he replied: "If you can"t endure it, can"t you just dodge it... No wonder Fearless says that you"re all stupid..."
The rest of the group turned and stared at Fearless angrily, but the implicated Fearless could only shrug it off.
Although everyone focused their anger at Fearless, they were silently unhappy at w.a.n.g Yu"s words.
Dodge it…...what nonsense. The boss wielded a long pike, and with a sweep of it everyone in a 6.5 meters radius and in all 360 degrees around him would be damaged, so how could anyone dodge anything?
Based on the looks on these people"s faces, Fearless knew that it would not be possible to ask Sanguine Alliance to get these people to help anymore.
However, this boss was rather disgusting. True damage…...doesn"t this mean that the heavy armor of a Guardian would be rendered useless? Without any form of defence, no matter how much health you had, it wouldn"t be enough to endure the strikes of the boss.
For dungeon runs, there was only one outcome when tanks couldn"t endure the damage: being wiped out...
"Boss Fearless, come up with a plan please. We agreed on paying 500 gold coins once we"ve pa.s.sed through the dungeon." Sanguine Warflag said as he walked over.
500 gold coins, Sanguine Warflag mentioned this very clearly. He regularly reminded Fearless that the two of them were hired by them with 500 gold coins, so they couldn"t always keep clas.h.i.+ng head on with them, otherwise that 500 gold coins would have been money poorly spent.
"We have no choice but to step in." Fearless sighed, and softly asked w.a.n.g Yu: "Old Bull, can you pull this guy"s aggro?"
"Let"s give it a try!" w.a.n.g Yu replied, striding towards the Viper General.
"Eh? Brother Bull, why are you going over there?" When he saw w.a.n.g Yu moving forward alone, Sanguine Warflag was a little confused.
"To draw the aggro of the boss!" w.a.n.g Yu enthusiastically responded.
"Draw the aggro of the boss?" All members of Sanguine Alliance were stunned. There were indeed some Pugilists who acted as tanks, but all of them added points into health and wore heavy armor without exception.
But what about w.a.n.g Yu? With his fast speeds and high damage, one could immediately determine that he added points into attack and dexterity. Moreover, the clothing w.a.n.g Yu wore wasn"t suitable at all (the Heavenly Silk Armor was like a vest...), hence wouldn"t it be courting death to fight the monster alone?
Although they knew that w.a.n.g Yu was very impressive, the opponent was a boss, a high level boss that dealt true damage. With that little bit of health that w.a.n.g Yu had, no matter how good he was, it would be over with one slash.
Faced with w.a.n.g Yu"s actions, the faces of the tanks of Sanguine Alliance turned red. To actually force a Pugilist to draw the aggro of a monster, they were really too useless as tanks.
"Boss Iron Bull, can you take it? If it"s really not possible then please swap places with me..." Other than Heavenly Bird, the other Guardian named Sanguine Wall spoke up.
Chuckling, w.a.n.g Yu replied: "Do you think you"re better than me?"
"This is not a matter of who is better. With my health, I can at least take two to three hits, while you can take only one at most with your amount of health!" Sanguine Wall explained.
"Why must I take any hits?" w.a.n.g Yu asked in a puzzled manner.
"Otherwise what did you have in mind?"
"I"ll just dodge!" w.a.n.g Yu brought up the matter of dodging the boss"s attacks once more.
"..." Sanguine Wall turned speechless for a moment before speaking. "Sure, you"re the G.o.d, what you say, goes." Against someone like this, he did not want to bother with any reb.u.t.tals.
During this conversation, w.a.n.g Yu had already stepped into the range of the Viper General"s aggro, hence it roared and slashed at w.a.n.g Yu with a swift movement of its hands.
The long pike of the Viper General speared towards him three times in quick succession: at the lower abdomen, chest, and with a final swing, the head of w.a.n.g Yu.
In response, w.a.n.g Yu jumped three times back to back, dodging all three strikes of the Viper General while he couldn"t help but declare: "Not bad, you are rather skilled!"
The Viper General indeed lived up to its name as a general, thus all of its attacks were from the fiercest of styles.
Those three strikes seemed rather simple, but the more simple the technique, the more effective and dangerous it was.
The first strike of the general was aimed at the lower abdomen, and its target would definitely bend over if hit, which would allow the second strike to naturally pierce the target"s throat. If an additional force was exerted after that, the general would be able to rip off its target"s head.
Luckily, its opponent was a martial arts expert like w.a.n.g Yu. For lethal dangers, his instinctive response was to dodge first, and only block if unable to do so.
If it were an ordinary player, the response of choice would definitely be to take the three strikes head on, and based on the current stats of the Viper General, none of the current players would be able to endure its [Triple Strike].
"He, he really dodged it..." Sanguine Wall"s jaw dropped straight to the ground as he stared at the scene before him in disbelief.
