123: First clear of Bronze BOSS

Anyone with eyes could see that this BOSS was going to be taken down today!

But in this situation, not being able to get any benefits at all was even more agonizing than dying a hundred times.

"Big Brother Shi Chuan, add me to the party!"

"Big Brother Shi Chuan, we are neighbors, do you remember me? It's Liang Wenbo from Building Four..."

Xu Shian ignored them all, continuing to follow his own rhythm: summoning, reviving, and throwing them into the battlefield!

Ridiculous, they don't even know my name and are still pretending to be acquaintances here?

The BOSS's HP began to drop crazily.

60%, 50%, 40%, 30%...

Of course, Xu Shian's pets had already died round after round!

It felt like he couldn't revive them fast enough...

After all, it takes ten seconds to revive a pet! Now he could only prioritize minions with great utility like Pigsy and Feng Tiao!

Jia Hu, on the other hand, only dared to jump in for a single slash before fleeing at high speed!

And the remaining four level 40 guards didn't even have the courage to go up and touch the BOSS once...

They weren't even as brave as these players...

When the BOSS's HP dropped to 30%, it directly roared at the sky! Its two arm-like branches drew circles toward the sky...

【Desperate Summoning】

Instantly, one after another, 【Corrupted Saplings】 split off from the BOSS's body, starting to rush outward with the BOSS as the center.

Xu Shian's various pets began to be blown to pieces...

The 【Corrupted Saplings】 were too dense; there was no way to dodge them by moving.

Every time they were hit by an explosion, they were sent flying thirty meters away!

"Oh no... don't let the BOSS reset!"

Jia Hu roared, but that was all he did!

If he jumped in at this moment, there would probably be another small grave on the barren mountain outside the village!

In just three seconds, 【Pigsy】 was almost blown out of the battlefield!

Xu Shian hurriedly threw 【Feng Tiao】 under the BOSS's feet.

Unexpectedly, 【Feng Tiao】 had it even worse; there were 【Corrupted Saplings】 all around him, and the dense explosions immediately wiped out Feng Tiao's eighteen thousand plus HP!

This is bad!

Once it resets, a field BOSS can recover to full HP at a speed that will make you despair...

Xu Shian even threw his level 1 【Big Bear】, 【Second Bear】, Frost Blade, and Frog Emperor out to fill the gap!

Watching as the dense explosions were about to clear the battlefield area...

Jia Hu quickly switched to his shield, preparing to give it a shot!

【Charge】, 【Immovable as a Mountain】, 【Immortal Stance】

At the critical moment, Hu Beiyu was still quite reliable!

Although he had the 【Weakness】 debuff on his head, his talent 【Immortal Stance】 was almost an invincibility skill, and 【Immovable as a Mountain】 ensured Hu Beiyu wouldn't be blown away by the self-explosions.

Unfortunately, because he hadn't accumulated 【Barrier Power】, the duration of 【Immortal Stance】 was only the base 5 seconds...

However, five seconds was enough...

After five seconds, the ten-second duration of 【Desperate Summoning】 had passed.

Although the BOSS had summoned two 【Corrupted War Guards】, at least the casting period was over, and it was no longer summoning these self-destructing little tree people...

There was no time to revive 【Pigsy】 and 【Feng Tiao】, so he hastily sent those two brothers back to the Emerald Dream, and Xu Shian directly threw 【Frost Fang】 under the BOSS's feet!

At this point, the BOSS was no longer producing new tree people...

"Ranged units, quickly take out those spread-out tree people!"

This part was the Militia Team's strong suit!

One by one, the 【Corrupted Saplings】 were directly attacked by ranged shooters, killed, and exploded!

"It's now, hurry and go in, try to deal as much damage as possible before dying... remember not to release your corpse!"

On this point, Hu Beiyu did very well; once the five-second period passed, he immediately lay there quietly and stopped moving.

Xu Shian, having caught his breath, quickly revived his dead pets; he needed them to rejoin the battle!

"Pay attention to dodging the stones thrown by the War Tree; this thing can smash two hundred meters away!"

The battlefield, which had been chaotic for a moment, adapted to the BOSS's rhythm once again...

By this moment, the Corrupted Ancient Tree had no hope of a comeback!

...

"Awoo!"

The tree BOSS let out a roar, and when its HP was emptied, the branches of the one that had just been so arrogant withered instantly.

Within three seconds, the lush canopy from a moment ago quickly turned yellow and fell off...

The giant tree, which had been full of branches and leaves just a moment ago, now looked like it had been withered for many years!

【Ding, your team has killed the Bronze-rank BOSS 'Corrupted Ancient Tree - Wosguer', you have reached the level cap, and failed to gain any EXP!】

【Ding, your talent 'Social Butterfly Syndrome' triggered, Reputation +500 points.】

【World announcement is about to be made, do you want to hide your name?】

With such a big commotion today, who in the world doesn't know me?

"Do not hide!"

【Ding, World Announcement, congratulations to players 'Shi Chuan', 'I Am Really Not a Big Star', 'My Daughter Is a Big Star', 'Sad Fish', 'Dumplings Boil Tangyuan' for the server-wide first kill of the Bronze-rank BOSS 'Corrupted Ancient Tree - Wosguer', obtaining rich rewards, please continue to work hard and create more brilliance, players!】

【...】

Three consecutive world announcements rang out, shocking the World Channel into liveliness once again!

"Why? I've died four times, why does nothing count for me..."

"Just kidding, if rushing in to die counts, then this BOSS first kill is too easy to get!"

"I think the first poster is right, why doesn't it count?"

"@Shi Chuan, killing the BOSS was everyone's credit, you cannot hog the loot! You should take it out and split it among everyone!"

...

Once these words came out, the trend immediately changed!

Those who agreed started popping up one after another.

Now, no one thought the one gold coin fee was expensive anymore!

They just started to coerce public opinion on the World Channel like this...

Unfortunately...

Xu Shian didn't even bother to look at these clowns.

Xu Shian saw the people in his party reviving one after another, knowing they were already on their way here!

And at this moment, a huge pile of players rushed out from some corner, reaching out to touch the BOSS!

【Ding, you do not have looting permissions!】

Xu Shian's brow furrowed!

Subconsciously, he raised the bow in his hand!

Jia Hu's hand directly rested on Xu Shian's shoulder.

"Village Chief is here; he will handle it! You need to teleport to the main city in a moment, it won't be good to go over with a red name..."

Xu Shian didn't actually want to do it himself, but he needed to show his attitude.

He wasn't so irrational as to kill in the Novice Village!

However...

"Leaving in a moment? Who said I was leaving?"

"I did!"

Village Chief walked over from a distance; at this moment, the dragon-walking and Jia Hu-stepping Village Chief didn't look old and decrepit at all.

"I'll give you twenty minutes to pack up, and then get lost! My small temple can't accommodate such a big Buddha like you..."

"That's not enough time!"

"That's not my concern. If you stay here one more day, my heart can't take it; I'm afraid you'll send me away first!"

Saying this, he stopped paying attention to Xu Shian and looked at the devastated Novice Village.

Collapsed houses, messy boulders, and vegetation like locust trees and banyan trees summoned by the BOSS in the living area... Village Chief's heart twitched in pain!

Looking at the crowd that was still lingering around the BOSS's corpse, refusing to leave...

"You guys, get lost!"

Irritable Village Chief, yelling at people online!
