Chapter 7: Rushing the Boss

  The game time is two days, and finally the first boss appears. Tianhuo's eyes lit up, if he was the first to kill the boss, would there be a reward?

  "Hurry up! The first boss of the Tianming world is here! Killing it will definitely drop some great stuff!" The crowd buzzed excitedly and ran towards the other side of the mountain.

  Heavenly Flame is rubbing his chin, a boss-level monster, that experience value must be very high, and the things that burst out of it are definitely not ordinary!

  Tian Huo also quickly followed behind the crowd.

  After turning around the foot of the mountain, a giant snake over ten meters long was seen moving its body to attack the player. A burst of green toxic smoke spewed out, but within a few seconds, white lights began to emerge one after another.

  Tianhuo only felt his scalp numb, his whole body was covered in goosebumps, and what he feared most were snakes! It just so happened that this was the boss of the snake class.

  Azure Serpent King (Normal Boss), Level 5, HP: 14121/15000, Attack: 210, Defense: 100.

  Skill: Snake Dance, dancing body deals 80% damage to targets within a 10m radius of a 90-degree fan-shaped area, cooldown time 10 seconds.

  Toxic Fog: Deals 60% damage per second to targets within a 10m radius of the 90-degree fan-shaped area, lasting for 10 seconds. Cooldown time is 20 seconds.

  Tian Huo furrowed his brow after seeing the boss's attributes, this boss actually had skills and such powerful attributes, probably not many people could deal damage to it!

  "Attack quickly! Don't be afraid to die, death has no penalty now, and you can revive immediately!" The voice of Hachigane came from the battle circle, attracting Tianhuo's attention.

  Tian Huo looked at the scene with some surprise, as Ba Dao Kuang actually led 40 or 50 people to surround and attack the boss, his rallying power was not ordinary, but it's unknown whether those players had received any benefits.

  "Everyone stop watching and come attack the Snake King! If I die, the Eight Blades family will give 1,000 copper coins!" Eight Blades shouted loudly.

  Tian Huo's eyebrows furrowed at the words, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes. "The Eight Blades Family, I suppose you haven't forgotten everything you did to Sister Yu Rong?"

  As he pondered, Tian Huo looked at his own attribute panel: 183-188 attack, 126 defense, and 1550 health points.

  In contrast, Tianhuo knew that the snake king could deal around 80 damage to himself each time, and he could only deal similar damage to the boss. However, he didn't have a chance to revive, so he had to find an opportunity to steal the boss.

  With rapt attention, I gazed out at the scene before me. Under the incitement of the Eight Slashes' frenzy, all the players who had been watching from the sidelines charged forward in a flurry. Now, everyone was generally around level 4 or 5, with the highest defense not exceeding 60. Even if they were tanks, their HP wouldn't exceed 800. Under the Snake King's large-scale attack, they still couldn't hold on for much longer.

  －1，－1,……

  A string of forced damage emerged from the top of the Snake King's head, but the Snake King's attack was too high, and every time it swept across its massive body, players were killed.

  "Come on, only 12,000 HP left!" The eyes of the Eight Slashes flashed with excitement. Although this boss had high defense, under the tactic of a sea of people, each person dealing a little damage added up to a considerable amount.

  Suddenly, a green mist slowly appeared on the top of the snake king's head. The expression of the Eight Blades Crazy God tightened, "Quickly retreat, go around to the back and sides of the snake king."

  Many players also understand that this is obviously the Snake King releasing his skills, and they dare not hesitate, running away in a hurry.

  Whoa! A burst of green fog suddenly spewed out from the Snake King's mouth, instantly enveloping the fan-shaped area in front. However, most people in this area had already run away, leaving behind a few unlucky ones who were swept by the toxic fog. In an instant, these few people were covered in green mist, and their damage values also emerged from the top of their heads.

  －120，－119……

  In just a few seconds, several people shrouded in toxic fog turned into white light and disappeared.

  Tian Huo's heart sank, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest. The poison damage would last for 10 seconds, and no player could withstand it, even with the use of Golden Medicine, which could only restore 200 health points in 15 seconds, not enough!

  However, the Snake King has a precursor when releasing this skill and can be completely avoided.

  After a moment of consideration, Tian Huo looked around and saw that behind the Snake King was a steep cliff nearly ten meters high. Even if the Snake King stood up on its hind legs, it couldn't reach the top of the cliff.

  Seeing this, Tian Huo's eyes lit up, his current attack range was 20 meters, and if he stood on that cliff, he could just attack the Snake King.

  After observing for a moment, Tian Huo discovered that among the hundreds of players attacking the Snake King at this moment, there was no one who could cause more than 10 damage to the Snake King. In this way, Tian Huo can completely rely on his strong attack to attract the boss's hatred, without worrying about the boss being pulled away from the cliff.

  "Hurry, only over 9,000 blood volume left, hold on, good rewards won't be less for you, those with low blood volume exit and recover to full before coming back to fight." Ba Dao Kuang's eyes showed a thick layer of joy, the game's first boss!

  Listening to Bādāo Kuáng's words, the dozens of people who had not yet joined the battle on the side also became expectant and secretly began to form teams. This was naturally done in order to seize the boss at a critical moment.

  "Brother Tianhuo, it seems you don't want to help them either. Why don't we team up?" Sa Qi Piao Qian Li said with a bit of nervousness as he walked over to Tianhuo's side.

  Tian Huo smiled faintly, knowing that the experience needed to level up himself was too much, and the boss's experience would definitely not be less. If they were to form a team, then there would be too little experience to go around. Moreover, Tian Huo did not believe that this person would be the first to kick him out of the team.

  "Sorry, I'm not interested." Tian Huo said lightly and turned around to run towards the side of the cliff, bypassing the battlefield, and then climbed up to White Cloud Mountain.

  Tian Huo had already gotten a clear view of the terrain, and after just a few minutes, he arrived at the top of the cliff, looking down at the battle below. A smile played on his lips as he said, "Still 6210 HP left, enough to attract some hate!"

  "Hundred battles on the battlefield, shattered iron armor..."

  －80，－79，－82……

  One by one, the blood-red numbers floated out from the top of the Snake King's head. In just a few seconds, the Snake King suddenly twisted its body and charged towards the cliff. Tianhuo clearly saw that the Snake King's name had turned gray, indicating that this boss was his own!

  The entire team's faces changed color as they saw that their boss's name had suddenly changed color, indicating that it had been stolen!

  The name of the monster will vary depending on the level difference with the player, but no matter how much the level differs, as long as it belongs to its own, the color is always earthy.

  At this moment, Tianhuo saw that it had already turned into earth color, but the team of Badaojiao immediately changed to normal color, which means they were robbed!

  "Damn it, go up and kill him!" Eight Slashes roared furiously, at this moment he also understood that no matter how they attacked, they couldn't surpass the Heavenly Fire, after all the Heavenly Fire's attack was too strong.

  The only way is to go and break the Heavenly Fire, best if you can kill him!

  The moment Eight Slashes Crazy spoke up, everyone stopped their attacks. If they were to fight the boss at this time, it would undoubtedly be helping Tian Huo's cause.

  The fire in the sky smiled and crawled up from below, it takes a few minutes, but these few minutes are enough to kill the boss!

  Bādāo kuáng escaped the boss's attack range, furiously staring at Tiān Huǒ, "You fooled me yesterday, and now you dare to come and steal the boss? It seems your seal has been lifted. This time, let's see how you die!"

  "Hurry up and give it all to me!" Bakuto roared in a frenzied rage, his eyes filled with anxiety, for the Snake King's HP had already fallen below 2000.

  Heavenly Fire teased with a smile, crushing the blue medicine bottle in one hand while activating his verbal skills: "Unless Loulan is destroyed, I will never return..."

  The boss's blood volume was already less than a thousand, and with more than ten words, it would be successful. However, the people from the Eight Slashes family rushed up and hacked towards Tianhuo.

  －1，－1……

  The defense of Tianhuo 126 is even higher than that of the boss, so how can these players break through? They can only deal a forced 1 point of damage to Tianhuo.

  "Ding! System alert, player Tian Huo, please note that you are under attack by the Eight Blades Crazy team. You have 3 minutes to counterattack freely."

  Upon hearing the system prompt tone, Tian Huo smiled and said, "Good and Evil Mode... Hundred Battles Iron Armor..."

  The distance was so close that no one could avoid the large-scale attack of Tianhuo. With a poem, a wave of white light burst out from behind Tianhuo, and in an instant, the players who were attacking Tianhuo just now completely disappeared.

  "Ding! System prompt: Counterattack successful, gained evil value -5."

  The Eight Blades Lunatic's face changed as he stood below, "How can it be so strong!"

  But just then, the boss's last bit of blood was completely drained, and with a loud crash, he fell to the ground, silent forever.

  Bang!

  Among the deafening explosions, item after item fell beside the Snake King, but before anyone could see clearly, those things disappeared.

  "Ding! System Prompt: Gained 25,500 experience."

  "Ding! System notification: Level up, congratulations on reaching level 5, four major attributes +5."

  "Ding! System prompt: Player Tianhuo used Wensheng's laziness, collected 1 monster corpse, obtained 1 Snake King's Gall and 2 Snake King's Teeth."

  "Ding! System notification: Wen Sheng's Sorrow has been activated, picking up 1800 copper coins, equipping 3 items."

  Four system prompts sounded in Tianhuo's ear, while the Eight Blades Lun below had already turned pale, gritting his teeth and staring at Tianhuo.

  But that's not all, another system prompt sounded in Tianhuo's ear: "Ding! System Prompt: Congratulations, you are the first player to kill the boss, reward 2000 prestige, level +1."

  "Ding! System notification: Level up, congratulations on reaching level 6, four major attributes +5."

  "Ding! Global News: Congratulations to player Tianhuo for becoming the first player to kill the boss, and receiving a rich reward!"

  "Ding! Global News: Congratulations to player Tianhuo for becoming the first player to kill the boss, and receiving a rich reward!"

  ……

  Global message, this is the highest level of message that all players in the server can see. At this moment, three consecutive global messages made the name Tianhuo famous again!
