40: Who is the boss? Here comes another one!

“Little boss?”

Storm Dragon Valley has three branches, theoretically meaning two little bosses and one final boss.

But bosses usually guard the rear; it's quite rare for one to charge directly like this.

Perhaps it's because Ye Ze killed too many.

At the valley entrance, the widest road leads straight to ‘Thunder Roar Forest,’ which from afar looks like a mountain gorge filled with thunderclouds, but now a dragon's roar reverberates.

Twelve dragon-shaped figures flew out.

Leading them was a massive monster, over ten meters tall.

Its scales were silvery white like lightning, two wings on its back were covered in lightning patterns, and its eyes were dark blue.

Ye Ze activated Eye of Insight:

【Storm Dragon Commander—Wings of Thunder Roar】

Level: 20

Type: Excellent Elite Commander

Attributes: Strength 200, Constitution 200, Agility 180, Spirit 220

Skills: Thunder Dragon Breath, Heavenly Punishment Lightning Strike, Lightning Wing Flash

————

Elite Commander, a monster level only found in high-difficulty raid dungeons.

In other difficulties, it could even serve as the final boss!

“All three skills are wide-area damage, which would be a disaster for a typical pioneering team…”

“You all retreat.”

Ye Ze said the latter sentence to the other students, who were also very sensible, led by Liu Qi, they slipped away a hundred meters.

Everyone understood that even the aftershock of one skill could be fatal.

A typical high-difficulty raid team usually consists of at least eighty professionals of Level 7 or 8, with excellent equipment and skills.

They also need to be divided into various professional groups, with orderly command, otherwise, they simply cannot tackle high difficulty.

Ye Ze, however, directly retreated a few steps with the Panda.

Leaving this boss for the Mantis to solo!

Upon seeing Ye Ze retreat, Commander-Wings of Thunder Roar thought he was afraid and immediately swelled with power:

“Despicable human!”

“You've killed so many of my Storm Dragon Clan, and now you want to run?”

But as soon as his voice fell, a spatial fluctuation appeared, and the Red-Eyed Mantis materialized in front of him.

“!”

Wings of Thunder Roar was startled; even he had never seen such an elusive ability.

But the next moment, the shock on his face was replaced by pain.

The Red-Eyed Mantis, exuding a bloodthirsty aura, suddenly raised its arm blade, and a dark purple Void rift, like a spatial slash, cut across.

Void Slash, a single strike severed one of Wings of Thunder Roar’s wings!

“Aow—”

It was too fast; even with his high spiritual perception and agility, he couldn't react to this strike.

Accompanied by a scream.

Wings of Thunder Roar lost balance and fell miserably from the sky.

Liu Qi and the other students standing a hundred meters away, seeing the damage from this strike, immediately felt their scalps tingle.

A little boss that could at least heavily injure other pioneering teams was severely wounded by a single blow?

However, this strike was actually more than that.

If it had directly struck the head, though it wouldn't kill, the damage would have been greater.

But the Mantis deliberately struck towards the wing, the purpose of which was to also kill the Dragonman guards behind him!

Reaper, triggered!

Void Slash, refreshed!

As a Storm Dragon Commander, Wings of Thunder Roar naturally had other small dragons from the Thunder Roar branch under his command.

These were a dozen or so small guards beside the boss.

When other pioneering teams fought, they would add significant pressure.

But facing the Void Mantis, these Dragonman guards seemed to become a death knell for Wings of Thunder Roar!

At this moment, five Dragonman guards blocked the Mantis, while the remaining five went to protect Wings of Thunder Roar.

“Hehe…”

The Void Mantis let out a cruel, low chuckle like metal grinding.

Facing the charge of the five Dragonman guards, the Mantis swung its arm blade, and Void Slash cut across.

The five Dragonman guards were instantly cut in half!

【Killed Storm Dragon Guard*5, Experience +1400!】

【Level: 9 (3700/7300)】

Even more terrifying… Void Slash, refreshed!

Another dark purple Void rift cut across the right side of Wings of Thunder Roar, who had fallen to the ground.

While his right half was severely wounded by the slash, two Dragonman guards who went to protect him… were also killed.

【Killed Storm Dragon Guard*2, Experience +560!】

Void Slash, refreshed!

If Wings of Thunder Roar knew about this ability, he would never bring guards in his next life.

If not for the guards, he might have been able to exchange a few blows with the Mantis.

But at this moment, he lay on the ground, heavily wounded and miserable, roaring:

“Why can a skill with such high damage be used continuously?!”

Wings of Thunder Roar’s three skills didn't have such high damage, but their cooldowns were much longer!

Seeing this scene.

It made many students involuntarily question from the depths of their souls:

“Who exactly is the boss?”

As one of the three major bosses of Storm Dragon Valley, Wings of Thunder Roar was almost completely unable to fight back!

Even more terrifying was that Ye Ze's summoned beast seemed to exert no effort at all!

As everyone was shocked, someone suddenly exclaimed, “Holy crap! Another one!”

Within the mountain gorge, a short, stout figure charged towards the Mantis from behind, causing the ground to tremble.

It was an Earth Dragon, with yellowish-brown skin surrounded by lightning armor-like electric light; despite its small stature, its speed was incredibly fast.

However, the Mantis’s Compound Eyes provided a 360° unobstructed view.

Even though the Earth Dragon came from behind, it missed upon approach…

Void Shuttle!

Ye Ze also saw the information of the newcomer:

【Storm Dragon Commander—Thunderstorm Sub-Dragon】

Level: 20

Type: Excellent Elite Commander

Attributes: Strength 220, Constitution 200, Agility 240, Spirit 130

Skills: Thunderstorm Armor, Thunder Flash Assault, Shockwave.

————

Another Elite Commander!

The difference was that Wings of Thunder Roar was a flying dragon, while this Thunderstorm Sub-Dragon was an Earth Dragon, and its skills were all strength-based.

Quite rarely, the two little bosses were actually teaming up.

In a raid dungeon, little bosses of this strength would be jointly opposed by dozens of professionals.

And now, two bosses were actually teaming up, just to fight one person!

Or rather, one summoned beast!

For a moment, the students a hundred meters away felt their worldviews being infinitely refreshed.

But Ye Ze was not surprised.

Because Wings of Thunder Roar’s previous scream contained a message of ‘seeking help’.

And this was something Ye Ze was happy to see.

Ancient Shadow, its cooldown had also just ended!

With the 50% cooldown reduction effect of ‘Battlefield Legend’, the Panda’s skills also recovered quickly!

The Thunderstorm Sub-Dragon let out a fierce roar.

It launched its second attack.

Compared to a Storm Dragon, the Thunderstorm Sub-Dragon, at only three or four meters tall, was considered small.

But for the Panda, the imposing presence brought by the Thunderstorm Sub-Dragon’s size was much stronger…

But this advantage lasted less than a second.

Ancient Shadow, the nearly ten-meter-tall giant Ancient Iron-Eating Beast reappeared!

Facing the Thunderstorm Sub-Dragon’s lunge, the Panda slapped out with a palm… like the sky sweeping down, crushing it!

Terrifying air currents surged in all directions.

A palm strike imbued with immense power actually smashed the Thunderstorm Sub-Dragon directly into the ground!

Seeing this scene.

The one with the most complex emotions was none other than Wings of Thunder Roar.

The glimmer of hope that had just emerged was extinguished by the Panda’s palm.

And at this moment, feeling the Void Mantis’s gaze shift back to him.

Wings of Thunder Roar’s dragon eyes constricted:

It’s over!
