Chapter 18: The Abyssal Fall

  One step, two steps... ten steps... Ling Chen's distance from the Golden Warwolf was getting closer and closer. The Golden Warwolf, however, seemed to have not noticed him at all, maintaining its proud posture of looking up at the sky, or perhaps it didn't deign to take the initiative to attack a weak human. Ling Chen stopped in his tracks, picked up a stone from the ground, and with a flick of his wrist, threw it at the Golden Warwolf, hitting it right on the head.

  The Golden Warwolf was enraged, let out a furious howl, and suddenly jumped down from the rock, directly pouncing on Ling Chen's location... Its explosive force in this instant made Ling Chen secretly shocked, this Golden Warwolf didn't need to run up, it could jump nearly ten meters high with a single leap from where it stood, and directly fell onto his head, the massive pressure making him feel suffocated for an instant.

  Such explosive power and agility... Its movement speed is at least twice that of an ordinary evil wolf!

  Fast-moving monsters were the most troublesome for Ling Chen, as they would greatly restrict his own mobility and action space. Facing the Golden Warwolf's pounce, Ling Chen stomped the ground with force, taking a sudden leap backward almost at the same time. The Golden Warwolf landed in the position he was previously in, kicking up clouds of sand dust. Despite the long-distance pounce, after landing, the Golden Warwolf only paused for an instant before suddenly turning around and pouncing towards Ling Chen once again.

  What a strong sense of action... Ling Chen's heart skipped a beat again, he didn't have time to think too much, his body had already reacted like lightning, with his left foot as the axis, he made a swift turn, while his body lowered greatly. "Whoosh..." The strong wind brushed against his face, causing a stinging pain. Gritting his teeth, when the Golden Warwolf swept past his body, his new sword quickly struck and killed it, before it even hit the ground, three consecutive normal attacks landed on the Golden Warwolf's body.

  MISS，MISS，-32。

  Three attacks, two misses, and the only hit was offset by more than half of its defensive power. Ling Chen didn't stop, and as Huang Jin Zhan Lang turned around, he made a quick turn, re-circled to its back, and stabbed with "Full Force Strike".

  MISS。

  He quickly withdrew his sword and was about to attack again when a sense of crisis suddenly flashed through his mind. Without thinking, he rapidly fell backwards, his entire body sticking close to the ground.

  Sigh...

  A golden wolf tail over two meters long swept across above his eyes. If his reaction or movement was delayed by just a fraction of a second, he would have been flung far away by the tail.

  It can even use its tail to sweep... Ling Chen, who quickly got up, gritted his teeth. In this case, the way he surrounded the Golden War Wolf in a circle was definitely not going to work.

  Thus, he was completely caught off guard and the Golden Warwolf counterattacked him with a flurry of strikes. The wolf's powerful explosive force and agility left Ling Chen in a precarious situation, where he could hardly find an opportunity to strike back except by dodging with all his might.

  Pounce!!

  Another terrible pounce was dodged by Ling Chen, who quickly glanced back at the terrain to find something to borrow. However, in an instant, he didn't feel the Golden War Wolf pouncing again. He saw the Golden War Wolf standing still, its head raised high, and its golden aura suddenly became intense. A long howl shook the sky...

  It's all over!!

  A burst of dust shocked him, and he couldn't care about anything else, retreating as fast as possible.

  Aaaa... Oooo...

  A low and loud wolf howl echoed throughout the entire Evil Wolf Cliff. At the same time as the wolf howl sounded, a circle of golden light spread out from its body, shooting straight out in all directions, extending to a distance of five meters around it before dissipating. Ling Chen had retreated at the first moment, but was still a step too late, his body being swept by the golden light just as he was about to leave the five-meter effective range...

  -108！

  A three-digit damage floated above Ling Chen's head, causing his health to plummet by more than half in an instant... If he hadn't eaten the Crimson Fruit, this one hit would have been enough to kill him instantly. As his health fell, Ling Chen's brain also shook violently, and all of his consciousness rapidly dispersed.

  This is Golden Wolf's Dizzying Sonic Blast!!

  After the roar, the golden war wolf looked down at its target in front of it, which had already been stunned by its howl. With a single leap, it arrived in front of Ling Chen's motionless body and raised its sharp claws to tear at his flesh.

  A sharp gust of wind swept towards Ling Chen's body, and just as the golden wolf claw was about to touch his chest, his originally scattered eyes suddenly cleared up in an instant. His motionless body suddenly shot back like a loosened arrow, narrowly avoiding the Golden War Wolf's fatal blow. He then quickly took out a bottle of red medicine to restore his life.

  Struck by the Golden Warwolf's sonic boom, ordinary players would be stunned for at least three seconds. But Ling Chen... he broke free from the stun in less than two seconds and made the quickest reaction the moment the stun wore off. The Golden Warwolf's movement paused briefly before charging forward again with a loud roar. Covered in cold sweat, Ling Chen could only continuously retreat, no longer having any chance to counterattack. Under the Golden Warwolf's pursuit, he was slowly forced towards the top of Evil Wolf Cliff.

  It was another backflip, and Ling Chen's back touched a hard rock. He had retreated to the highest point of Evil Wolf Cliff, beside that rock. He glanced back, then made a large-scale flip, directly behind the rock. Across this rock, he stared tightly at the Golden Warwolf.

  You're done for...... His hand pressed on this rock that was over two meters wide and one meter high, Ling Chen narrowed his eyes at the Golden Warwolf, slowly raising the new sword in his hand.

  At this moment, a loud and excited howl came from under the Evil Wolf Cliff.

  "Lord... Lord BOSS!!! We've found it... we've found it!! Hurry... hurry and inform the master, tell him that we've discovered the Lord BOSS!! Call everyone over!!"

  The edge of the Evil Wolf Cliff was suddenly visited by a team of over 30 people, led by a person wearing shining blue light armor and holding a wooden longbow, clearly an apprentice archer. He stared at the giant wolf with golden fur, his eyes wide with excitement, his voice trembling with emotion. The boss means a lot of skill potential points, prestige value, experience value, and top-notch equipment and items that make people jealous to the point of vomiting blood. But the probability of the boss appearing is really too low, from the start of the game to now, in the novice village 49554, no one has ever heard of a boss appearing, they accidentally came here and actually encountered one, it's like suddenly seeing a big pie falling from the sky, it's hard not to be excited.

  Finally, there were players who came! Ling Chen's eyebrows suddenly furrowed tightly.

  "There is still someone upstairs!!"

  "Never mind him, he's already a dead man. He actually dares to challenge the Lord BOSS alone? It's simply infuriating... Archers and mages, all out! Focus your attacks on the Lord BOSS... And take care of that annoying guy next to him!" The leader pointed upwards, shouting orders. Instantly, over a dozen archers and mages rushed forward, charging towards the cliff top... With their current force of thirty-odd people, it's impossible for them to defeat this Lord BOSS, so all they can do now is use ranged professions to harass from a distance, then wait for reinforcements to arrive.

  Ahh... Owwwwww!!!!!

  The golden war wolf, standing opposite Ling Chen with a rock in between, let out another long howl. But this howl was different from the previous one that had killed with its shockwave. Just as Ling Chen was about to take advantage of the brief moment when the wolf was howling to launch an attack, suddenly, countless wolf howls rose up simultaneously from all directions... Under the golden war wolf's howl, all the evil wolves on Evil Wolf Cliff responded and turned their bodies around, charging towards Ling Chen's location. In an instant, a hundred wolves were rushing forward.

  Ling Chen: "!!!!!!"

  It was already extremely difficult to deal with a Golden Warwolf alone, and now another player team that would definitely take action against the Golden Warwolf had arrived... What's more, the Golden Warwolf let out a howl, and unexpectedly summoned all the evil wolves. Ling Chen was unwilling to give up, but he couldn't help but understand that it was already impossible for him to successfully kill the Golden Warwolf today.

  This is the power of the Lord BOSS.

  Seven or eight fierce wolves nearby approached him in the blink of an eye, pouncing and biting at him. Ling Chen had no choice but to abandon his current thoughts and quickly shift his mind to find a way to escape the encirclement of the ferocious wolves and slip away from the wolf's den. As two ferocious wolves simultaneously pounced on him, his body swiftly ducked down, sticking close to the rock as he made a swift move, dodging the attacks of both wolves. Just as his body stabilized for an instant, a sense of danger came rushing towards him from the front. In his shrinking pupils, he saw disordered arrows and elemental projectiles of different colors flying towards him...

  Such an attack, whether he stays or moves forward, left, or right, will inevitably be hit, only backward can dodge... and backward, will fall into the encirclement of Golden War Wolf and Evil Wolf. More evil wolves have rushed here, and it will be even more difficult to escape when the time comes.

  But at this time, he had no choice, his unstable body leapt backward in a rather twisted posture... Since these players didn't dare to get close, they all started attacking from a position where they could just reach the wolf pack. Ling Chen's backward leap barely escaped the range of the bow and arrow and elemental attacks, dodging them all. However, due to his hasty evasion, he stumbled when landing, tumbling backward several steps until he finally stopped at the edge of the cliff, narrowly avoiding falling into that bottomless and terrifying abyss behind him. But stopping his body didn't mean he was safe yet; before he could even get up, a shrill wolf howl echoed beside his ear.

  Aaaa... Oooo...

  In the midst of the wolf's howl, a golden light flashed before him. Behind was an endless abyss, and there was no way to retreat, so Ling Chen could only watch as he was once again struck by the Golden War Wolf's sonic boom.

  -105！

  Consciousness scattered again, but quickly recovered under his extremely strong willpower. However, the moment his spirit cleared up, a ferocious wolf had already pounced on him.

  Bang!

  His body was knocked backward, his feet suddenly left empty, and then he fell down in the whistling wind...

  In that instant when his body fell into the deep abyss, his icy eyes saw clearly the name of the leader of the player group - Hei Yan Kuang Gong (Black Flame Mad Bow).
