There was an old saying in the gaming world: Fight whatever the BOSS summoned, avoid whatever the heaven released. Everyone started firing at the eggs the moment they saw the Queen Parasite laying eggs. There was simply no need for Fearless to remind them of what to do.
Because the Queen Parasite"s health wasn"t full, the eggs of the Queen Parasite were extremely weak too. Without the vitality skill, these eggs were not much stronger than ordinary chicken eggs.
In one wave of firepower, all the eggs were instantly destroyed.
"Eh, where is the Queen Parasite?"
This was the moment when everyone realised that the BOSS disappeared without notice. Therefore, they started looking around subconsciously. This BOSS appeared as though it had completely disappeared without a trace.
"Could it be behind us?" Hearing this, everyone panicked and looked behind frantically.
Just as everyone turned their heads, they saw a ma.s.sive black shadow appearing behind them.
"Careful! The BOSS is really behind us!" Crotch Lord pointed at the Queen Parasite behind them.
The group on the back line consisted of five of them, Fearless, Ming Du, Spring Halo, Yang Nuo and Prideful Frost.
As an archer, Yang Nuyo was stuck at the back. At this moment, the first person the BOSS charged at was Yang Nuo. As she saw the BOSS charging at her, Yang Nuo didn"t panic as she drew her bow and arrow to shoot out her Convulsion Arrow. The thick arrow landed right on the Queen Parasite"s face.
The Convulsion Arrow had the effect of repulsion. However, under the effect of the Queen Parasite"s Invincible Vitality, Yang Nuo"s arrow was only capable of stopping its attack for a slight moment. Even so, this was enough for the nimble Yang Nuo to react and get out of the way. She managed to step out of Queen Parasite"s range of attack.
The Queen Parasite let out a hiss before turning towards Fearless, Ming Du and co.
Everyone from the Quan Zhen Sect was an expert in escaping. As they noticed the Queen Parasite charging towards them, some jumped out of the way, some teleported away while Spring Halo was even more overboard. He immediately created fog and floated himself into mid-air. When the Queen Parasite reached them, there was only the pitiful Prideful Frost left staring blankly at the monster jumping on him with its mouth wide open.
"Save me please…" Prideful Frost cried out.
This fella was scared to his wits. After all, it was two different matters to see others getting leached and getting leached onto himself.
At such a moment, who would bother rescuing him? Nine Solitary Spears shouted, "Shuangshuang, hurry up and switch your equipment."
"Shuangshuang…" When everyone heard this name, they felt even more disgusted than when they saw the BOSS"s mouth.
Prideful Frost hurriedly changed his equipment and at this point, the BOSS had also managed to successfully complete its parasitism.
It only took the Queen Parasite a total of three seconds to do it… After doing so, the Queen Parasite didn"t enter the body. Instead, it turned to the others once more.
Everyone retreated frantically when they saw what happened. At this moment, Prideful Frost, who was taken over, was only wearing his inner wear as he raised his hands to cast magic on the crowd. Ming Du noticed this and instantly shot out a lightning bolt.
"F*ck, what was that?"
After being shot at, countless of small parasites jumped out of Prideful Frost"s body.
Parasitic Larva (LV30)
HP: 500
MP: 0
Skill: Parasitism
"F*ck!" Looking at these descriptions, everyone lost their mind.
Originally, everyone thought that blasting the body without the Queen Parasite in it would destroy it completely. Who knew that after the body was destroyed, so many small parasites will emerge out of it? The more you fight, the more they multiply?
The Parasitic Larva landed on the ground and hurried over to the crowd of people.
These Parasitic larvae could be killed but they were large in numbers, small in size and extremely swift. Close-combat jobs were not swift enough to avoid them while Fearless and co."s escape skills were all in cooldown. In the blink of an eye, everyone was. .h.i.t.
This time, everyone experienced how it felt being leached by a parasite.
Everyone cursed when they saw the notification. In less than 15 minutes, they will no longer be able to speak or move. This plaything was truly a parasite.
Thunderlord Block and Boson were inwardly pleased. These two had been a target before and they lost consciousness for about 1200 seconds. If they were to calculate it this way, being attacked by the Queen Parasite would result in at least 1800 seconds of being controlled. In comparison, these two felt much more fortunate.
Before helping Di Kapia complete his quest, players would not be transferred out of the scene. Therefore, if the BOSS killed everyone, they would resurrect at the same place.
However, the BOSS didn"t go on to kill everyone after controlling them. Instead, it climbed back onto the wall to continue consuming Di Kapia"s flesh and blood. The Queen Parasite"s health rapidly recovered again.
Those that were under control were basically crying without tears when they saw this.
To be honest, they had never felt a greater urge to die before.
"Eh, why is the channel so quiet now?"
w.a.n.g Yu and Vainglory, who got lost, became suspicious when they saw the chat suddenly quietened down moments after many instructions were given about how to fight the BOSS.
"Could they have all been obliterated?" Vainglory pondered for a while as he looked at the chat. It really did seem as though something bad happened.
w.a.n.g Yu frowned, "It can"t be. Even if they were all killed, it shouldn"t be so quiet." Ming Du was renowned for talking unnecessarily and everyone else was also very outspoken people. If they were really obliterated, they wouldn"t be able to hold themselves back from blaming Fearless. However, n.o.body said anything on the chat which was why it was exceedingly odd.
"Unless they were all under parasitism?" w.a.n.g Yu continued to think of possibility as the image of Boson and Thunderlord Block"s corpses appeared in his mind.
Vainglory heard this and instantly broke out in cold sweat.
"Uncle Bull, please don"t frighten me. If they were all under parasitism, does that mean we will not be able to leave this place?"
w.a.n.g Yu and Vainglory didn"t know about the time limit of parasitism. From the example of Boson and Thunderlord Block, they could only recover the normal state of the victim after killing the parasites.
Now that w.a.n.g Yu and Vainglory were trapped in the level one maze and the others were trapped, who was supposed to help kill the parasites? In this way, they were all trapped in the cycle of death.
At the thought of this, w.a.n.g Yu"s expression turned worried too. After a short while, w.a.n.g Yu stood up and told Vainglory, "It seems like this quest is dependent on us now."
Vainglory"s mouth twitched as he replied, "I know that too but our biggest problem now is how we are going to find the second level."
Vainglory never doubted w.a.n.g Yu"s ability. Ever since he met w.a.n.g Yu, he had never seen a BOSS which w.a.n.g Yu couldn"t handle. However, getting lost and finding a way out had nothing to do with one"s combat ability.
w.a.n.g Yu sighed, "Let"s just take one step at a time. If we take our time to find, there will still be a chance of finding it. Giving up now will not do us any good."
"Alright!" Vainglory answered as he followed w.a.n.g Yu on their journey to find their way.
