125: Chapter 121 Were you countered? Go, Demon Ball!
At his command, the three Magic Pets charged simultaneously.
Although the Skeleton Soldier was usually quite cowardly, it could be relied upon at critical moments.
It was the first to charge forward, swinging its sword directly at the Thunder Goblin.
Bang!! Accompanied by a dull thud.
A broadsword formed from condensed lightning appeared in the Thunder Goblin's hand, blocking the Little Skeleton's attack head-on.
The two were evenly matched in strength, and for a moment, they were deadlocked.
A sinister smile appeared on the Thunder Goblin's face, and lightning overflowed from its eyes.
"Falling Thunder!" Rumble, rumble!
Above in the sky, ferocious thunder dragons came crashing down.
Those Falling Thunder strikes bombarded an area of over a hundred meters around the Thunder Goblin indiscriminately.
The Little Skeleton was sent flying!! Several terrifying damage numbers appeared above its head.
-10000 -10000 -10000 ...
"Such high damage!" Lu Yuan was somewhat surprised.
You have to know, given the Slime's nature, the moment it charged, it released all its defensive skills, maxing out its defense.
Yet in this situation, a single area-of-effect skill had actually depleted over a hundred thousand of its HP.
The damage from this Overlord-level BOSS was truly terrifying!
Most crucially, after sending the Little Skeleton flying, the Falling Thunder around the Thunder Goblin did not dissipate.
Instead, it continued to spread outwards from it constantly. Those Falling Thunder strikes formed a stable and continuous attack zone!
"Do not get close to those Falling Thunder strikes." Lu Yuan warned.
The Slime and Iron-Eating Beast hurriedly stopped. Given their attributes, once they entered the attack range of the Falling Thunder, they would likely be severely injured or even killed instantly.
"Slime, stay further away and try to attack from a distance." Lu Yuan gave another command.
The Slime nodded heavily, spread its dragon wings to fly into the sky, and hovered continuously on the periphery of the Falling Thunder area.
After spotting an opportunity, it fiercely threw several Slime bombs. But as soon as they entered the Falling Thunder area, the Slime bombs were precisely struck by a bolt of Falling Thunder. Boom!! They exploded on the spot.
"Continue!" Lu Yuan's expression remained unchanged. The Slime began frantically throwing Slime bombs. But it was ineffective.
The flight speed of the Slime bombs was too slow; they couldn't get close to the Thunder Goblin at all before being struck by the Falling Thunder.
Lu Yuan took it all in and pondered a countermeasure.
The Slime's damage capability was unparalleled—100% True Damage! It could ignore defense, ignore damage reduction, and ignore resistance! Regardless of the target's level, as long as they were hit by it, they could be killed instantly in just a few attacks. It was a bug-level output capability.
However, its attack methods were singular. And, it was very easy to counter. It was just that these BOSS monsters had limited information and were unaware of the Slime's characteristics and weaknesses. Otherwise, the Slime's output capability would be greatly diminished.
Encountering a BOSS like the Thunder Goblin, the Slime had a hard time. Although the Thunder Goblin BOSS might not necessarily know the Slime's weaknesses, its Falling Thunder protective skill just happened to counter the Slime. Its damage capability couldn't be displayed at all.
"In the future, I still need to equip the Slime with more crowd control skills." Lu Yuan stroked his chin thoughtfully.
After this battle, Lu Yuan not only understood the Slime's weaknesses more clearly, but he also discovered a weakness of his own. His current Magic Pets—the Slime, the Iron-Eating Beast, the Little Skeleton, and even the newly summoned Demon Pill—were all melee, physical damage-type Magic Pets. Although they were all very strong, their types were too singular. When encountering a powerful BOSS that countered them, it was easy to fail. Just like in this current situation. Lu Yuan was truly at a loss.
"Could it be that I have to run away?" He had many teleportation items in his spatial equipment. He could directly tear through the dungeon barrier and escape from the dungeon. However, killing this Thunder Goblin BOSS was equivalent to clearing the Goblin Kingdom dungeon. Running away now, Lu Yuan was still somewhat unwilling.
Just at this moment, the Demon Pill, which had been eating and drinking wildly, suddenly raised its head. "Master, I am already starving and impatient!" "Let me go!"
The Demon Pill had a lively personality; without exaggeration, he was a hyper-masculine youth. He had long been impatient and wanted to rush up to fight. But because his attributes were too low and there were too many monsters, he had been held back by Lu Yuan.
Now, Lu Yuan scanned the Demon Pill's attribute panel. [ Flame Magic Pill ] [ Race Rank: Unranked ] [ Level: 5 ] [ HP: 13742 / 13742 ] [ Attack: 108 ] [ Racial Skills: Impact, Burst ] [ General Skills: None ] [ Hextech Rune: Prismatic · Ta Ta Dance ]
During the time the other three Magic Pets were fighting, the Demon Pill had been swallowing various heavenly treasures. Although its aptitude was quite average, it had eaten enough, and its HP had finally exceeded 10,000 points.
Lu Yuan looked at the Demon Pill's 'Ta Ta Dance' Rune. This rune possessed an extremely terrifying upper limit. As long as the number of stacked layers was high enough, relying solely on this one rune, it could outplay the entire field and crush everything.
Lu Yuan looked into the distance at the remnants of the Goblins who had surrounded them but dared not step forward. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. This seemed like a good opportunity. "Go, Demon Pill!"
